However, after a while, there were hundreds of men who signed up, Wei Qing divided those who signed up and those who did not sign up into two piles, and Tian Jian and their guards were extremely conspicuous in the crowd, and anyone who looked at it would find that the people surrounded by this group of guards were definitely not ordinary people, but they didn't know which family it was Wang Sun noble.

Of course, Wei Qing also found Tian Jian, but when Wei Qing saw that Tian Jian was wearing civilian clothes, he knew that Tian Jian didn't want others to know that he was here.

He trotted to Tian Jian's side and whispered, "Your Highness, please come here." ”

Tian Jian followed his gaze and found that it was the direction behind the wheat field, where there was a kneeling person, with an unknown fur underneath, but looking at the quality of the fur, it must be of extraordinary value, wearing the splendid scenery of Shu Real Estate, surrounded by more than a dozen servants, each of whom was strong and bright-eyed.

"This person is either rich or expensive, what does it have to do with Wei Qing, is he supporting Wei Qing's recruitment?" Tian Jian was suspicious in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.

"Who is this person?" Tian Jian's tone was a little suspicious, but he was calm.

"Your Highness, this person is Jia Baijin, a businessman of the Wei State, who has a lot of friendship with the ministers in the Wei State, and has funded me many times." Wei Qing's face was a little red.

Tian Jian showed a smile at the right time and said, "He can identify Wei Qing's talents, it can be seen that he is not an ordinary person, Wei Qing, can you introduce me to this palace." ”

"Your Highness is polite, making friends with the powerful of the countries is something that Bai Jin can't ask for, let alone a person like you, Your Highness!" Wei Qing said with a smile.

Seeing Wei Qing and Tian Jian coming, Bai Jin did not kneel anymore, but straightened up and walked towards the two.

Bai Jin knew that a businessman like himself had always been looked down upon by the powerful, and now that Wei Qing was developed and was in the Qi Kingdom, maybe he could still be grateful for the kindness he gave him when he was in trouble, but there would definitely be some mustard in Wei Qing's heart, and he Bai Jin was not such a bad person, and he would not serve his kindness.

"Brother Wei, dare to ask who this person is? Can you recommend me below? Bai Jin said with a smile, when he walked over from Tian Jian, Bai Jin saw the faint nobility exuded by Tian Jian, this kind of nobility cannot be raised by ordinary people.

In later generations, what is called aristocrats, nouveau riche or local tyrants, in terms of their cultural accumulation, generally speaking, only after three generations of wealth can they be regarded as aristocrats. Eight hundred years ago, the Duke of Zhou sealed Chen Hugong and Zhuye (the earliest capital of the Chen State, and later moved the capital to Wanqiu. Up to now, with 800 years of accumulation, coupled with the continuous talent of the Tian family over the ages, Tian Jian's nobility is very obvious, and his every move is in line with etiquette.

"Under is Tian Jian, the prince of Qi today, and the palace heard that Wei Qingyan Brother Bai is a native of Wei, but I don't know that Brother Bai is a descendant of Shang Zu." Tian Jian asked.

Bai Jin's face froze, and he smiled bitterly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really discerning, I don't know how His Royal Highness can see that I am a descendant of my ancestor." ”

Shangzu Baigui, Mingdan, was a famous merchant in Luoyang during the Warring States Period. Its master is Guiguzi, according to legend, Guiguzi got a "golden book", Guiguzi will get rich in it (you must first take it", "the world is unreachable, then hidden and waiting") passed on to Baigui. Bai Gui served as an official under King Hui of Wei and later came to the states of Qi and Qin, and he was also a famous economic strategist and financial planner. The Book of Han said that he was the originator of the theory of operating trade and developing industry and commerce, that is, "the ancestor of the world's words and governing the living".

Tian Jian smiled indifferently and said: "There are only a dozen businessmen in the world, and Brother Bai's surname is Bai, so this palace will not hesitate to guess, if it is really after Bai Gui." ”

Bai Jin quickly returned to his usual state of being in the business sea, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked straight to the point: "I don't know what is going on with Your Highness, as long as you can help in Xia, you will definitely do your best." ”

Bai Jin knew that people like Tian Jian were disdainful of talking to him, although the industry and commerce of Qi were developed, but the monarchs of the countries despised merchants from the bottom of their bones, why were merchants called merchants, that was after the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang, the Shang Dynasty nobles ran around in order to maintain their extravagant lives, buying low and selling high to accumulate wealth.

However, Tian Jian really didn't mean to despise businessmen, the huge wealth at this time was rivaling the country, they were not short of money, what they lacked was political rights, which was why Bai Jin helped Wei Qing when he was poor, just thinking that Wei Qing would be able to help their family speak politically in the future, of course, Bai Jin supported more scholars than Wei Qing, once a person soared, then the money he invested would have a hundredfold return. The merchants of the Song Dynasty caught their sons-in-law, and the salt merchants, Jin merchants, Hui merchants and other merchants of the Ming Dynasty bribed the ministers. Later generations can see that a businessman without political support is a fat pig, just waiting to be slaughtered by the powerful of the dynasty!

"Brother Bai, this palace just wants to make friends with you, I don't know if Brother Bai will be free tomorrow, at three o'clock in the afternoon, this palace is willing to talk to Brother Bai in the East Palace." Tian Jian smiled and took Bai Jin's hands.

A hint of disgust flashed in Bai Jin's eyes, would this prince have the same goodness as King Wei.

However, Bai Jin didn't dare to refuse, his face was a little stiff, and he said, "Jin must go to the prince's invitation." ”

"That's good, that's good, I'll wait and see Wei Qing's recruitment now!" Tian Jian laughed and patted Wei Qing and Bai Jin on the shoulder.

Wei Qing's face was flushed, he was very excited, and shouted: "Qing will live up to the trust of the prince." ”

Bai Jin smiled stiffly and looked at Wei Qing's sturdy shoulders sadly.

"Your Highness, Qingxian is in charge of recruiting troops, Your Highness, you can talk to Brother Bai first!" Wei Qing clenched his fists and bowed.

"You go first! Hongu wants to take a closer look at how you recruit troops. Tian Jian said with a smile.

"Brother Bai, I'll sit down and see if Wei Qing behaves." Tian Jiandao.

"Very good." Bai Jin pulled out Tian Jian's right hand and said with a smile.

So the two of them knelt down on the precious unknown fur.

"Prince, it is better to taste the rare wine brought from the Western Regions." Bai Jin said. Picked up a sterling silver flask from the table next to the two of them, in this world of bronze, this sterling silver flask looks very rare.

Pouring out the purple transparent liquid from the silver wine jug, there is a faint fragrance, this fragrance, Tian Jian is very clear, the fragrance of wine.

Bai Jin took a shallow sip of wine, which was very intoxicated by the fragrance of wine, sweet and sour.

Tian Jian glanced at Bai Jin, a little tired, he had drunk this kind of wine countless times in his later life, and of course he was not used to this kind of situation.

Tian Jian raised his mouth and drank it all, without a trace of tasting fine wine at all.

Bai Jin's face showed a painful look, and he said bitterly: "Your Highness, this kind of Western Regions wine is worth ten gold in one glass!" ”
