Chapter 1535: To Each His Own Mind

It is understandable that the princes will set their sights on the Mo Dao Army, even if the price of the Mo Dao is expensive, as long as it can be obtained, it is still worth it, the cost of the Mo Dao Army is definitely much smaller than that of the cavalry, although the princes can not get the training method of the Mo Dao Army, but the princes can secretly figure it out, with the strength of their strategists, it is not a problem to study the training method of the Mo Dao Army, and now the most important thing is to get the Mo Dao.

The Mo knife is forged from 100 steel, the blade is narrow and long, and it is extremely difficult to build if you use fine iron.

In fact, what the princes wanted most was the forging method of 100 steel, and so many 100 steel blades could be created in the craftsman workshop under Lu Bu's rule, if Lu Bu did not master Bai Lianggang's forging method, it was simply impossible.

The sophistication of the blade can greatly affect the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under his command on the battlefield, and the duel between the soldiers with the blades of the steel and the soldiers with the ordinary blades can be imagined, especially the sharpness and tenacity of the blades of the blades, which are used on the cavalry, and can even split the blades in the hands of ordinary foot soldiers when charging.

When the princes' army fought a decisive battle with the Bingzhou army outside Huguan, such a scene was staged, and the hundred steel blades made the princes rush to it.

The princes of the four sides have settled down with each other, and it can be expected that in the near future, there will definitely be wars between them, peace is only temporary, and the princes are recuperating as quickly as possible, but now it seems that it is very difficult for the princes to recover at a speed that is comparable to that of Lu Bu.

Especially when Lu Bu ascended to the throne of Jin, the popularity of the Chang'an scene surprised the envoys of the three parties.

Sun Qian's news in Chang'an during this period is not a few, when the envoy of Jiangdong wanted to get the first knife of the hundred refining ring, he also heard of the ups and downs, and he also had a certain understanding of the arrogance of the officials under Lu Bu, and when the war was gradually going on, the princes did have unprecedented attention to the merchants.

But it's just an importance, no matter what, businessmen are the lowest figures, people at the lowest end of Shinong industry and commerce, no matter how much wealth they have, the status is low after all, but after arriving in Chang'an, this situation has changed dramatically, if you talk about the importance of businessmen, no one can compare with Chang'an, and Sun Gan heard the news that Lu Bu's attention to businessmen can be said to have reached an outrageous point, businessmen who have made significant contributions, and even have official positions.

Under the rule of the princes, if you want to get an official position, you need not only talent, but also ability, and in comparison, it is obvious where the merchants are more willing to go, if it were not for the family to control the merchants, I am afraid that these merchants would have gone to Chang'an long ago.

The influence of Chang'an on merchants is obvious, among the merchants from all over the world, there are many who go to Chang'an or Jinyang, in these two places, they don't have to worry about exploitation and embezzlement from the family, because under the rule of Lu Bu, the family has to act carefully, once the officials of the Inspectorate catch the handle, it is when these families are unlucky.

The family may hate Lü Bu, because Lü Bu deprived them of everything that originally belonged to them, but the merchants and the people were grateful to Lü Bu, because Lü Bu not only gave them a stable living environment, but also made them yearn for life, and they could still make the family prosperous in other ways, but this prosperity lacked influence on the monarch.

"My lord, Yizhou envoy Sun Qian is outside asking to see you."

Mi Zhu hurriedly got up and said, "How can you let the envoy of the imperial court wait outside the door, and quickly bring the official to greet him." ”

Chen Xiong looked at Mi Zhu suspiciously, with Lu Bu's current power and status, are these so-called imperial court envoys worthy of Mi Zhu, but Mi Zhu is the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, and all he has to do is comply.

However, Mi Zhu's order made Chen Xiong dispel the idea of letting other officials come out to greet him, according to Mi Zhu, these officials were all getting money for the king of Jin, and they should not be reckless.

Chen Xiong nodded and said yes, when King Jin arrived at the Chamber of Commerce, he would not alarm these officials, it turned out that there was such a mystery in it, but this also greatly reflected the status of officials in the Chamber of Commerce.

Originally became an official of the Chamber of Commerce, it is a very unsatisfactory thing among the officials, after all, it is contact with the merchants, which makes the officials feel disgusted from the heart, among them there are people from the family, even if there are not a few merchants secretly controlled by the family, it does not mean that they are willing to have more contact with the merchants.

However, as time went by, they found that the Chang'an Mansion attached great importance to the Chamber of Commerce, and those who performed well in it received more benefits than local officials, of course, this benefit was the promotion of their positions, which made the officials of the Chamber of Commerce more dedicated.

After really contacting the merchants, you will find that in fact, the merchants who go to Chang'an from all over the country are not simple, they may be very respectful when facing officials, but they are extremely shrewd in their actions, and the shrewdness of businessmen has cultivated a group of shrewd officials for Chang'an.

Seeing Mi Zhu appear, many businessmen and officials in the Chamber of Commerce saluted, and the businessmen who had not seen Mi Zhu before, also showed a yearning for it, and the businessmen were able to do this to this extent, it was absolutely unparalleled glory, and Mi Zhu's deeds inspired many businessmen to struggle.

Even low-level businessmen have dreams.

Sun Qian obviously didn't expect Mi Zhu to come out to greet him in person, he, the envoy of the court, is not to say that he is welcome everywhere, the court he represents is now the weakest among the princes, and the strength is weak, which means that he has no confidence in the face of other princes.

"The messenger came from afar, but he could not meet him from afar, and he hoped for forgiveness." Mi Zhu arched his hand.

Sun Qian's eyes tightened, from Mi Zhu's words and deeds, he had an ominous premonition, what kind of person Mi Zhu is, he knows very well, it was because of what happened in Xuzhou that he made it difficult for the businessmen under Liu Bei's rule, and now Liu Bei is in charge of Yizhou, will it change this situation.

"Mi-sama is polite." Sun Qian hurriedly returned the salute.

"Messenger, please." Mi Zhu said.

After some excuses, the two entered the hall of the Chamber of Commerce.

Coming to Chang'an's Chamber of Commerce again, Mi Zhu's feeling is extremely lively, these are not ordinary people, but businessmen, you can imagine how much money these people can bring to Chang'an, rice grain is extremely popular in Chang'an, under normal circumstances, the merchants who transport rice grain to come, not only give priority, but also enjoy certain discounts.
