In history, the world-famous Confucian Shuijing Mr. Sima Wei once praised his two proud disciples as Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, and boasted that Haikou, Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, can be the world.
In fact, his words are not wrong, at least Mr. Wolong Zhuge Kongming has done this with his own ability, confirming his remarks.
However, Wolong is famous in the world, and it is a phoenix chick, so Sima Wei's sentence is a little flawed.
Pang Tong, the word Shiyuan, the number phoenix.
As a top strategist on the same level as Zhuge Liang, he has a flexible head, is knowledgeable, and full of strategies, and his talent is not under Zhuge Liang at all, but compared to Zhuge Liang, he may be less lucky.
Die before leaving the school, this is a sentence in a list written by Zhuge Liang later, but Sun Quan thinks this sentence is more suitable for Pang Tong.
Pang Tong's tragedy lies in his ugly face, this ugly face, which made Liu Biao reject him, and Jiangdong despised him, and finally got the attention of Liu Bei, who had nothing in the depression.
But God is jealous of talents, and the phoenix chicks fall on the slope.
He made great contributions to Liu Bei's entry into Sichuan, but he had not yet shown his strength and talents, and when he was less than thirty-six years old, he fell on the Luofeng Slope.
Jin Yiwei has found traces of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong in the Lumen Mountain Academy in Jingzhou, but Sun Quan has never made up his mind to recruit them, and in his heart, it seems that there is always a trace of estrangement with a god like Zhuge Liang.
Sun Quan didn't expect Pang Tong to come to the door automatically, since such a good thing, he naturally would not refuse.
Pang Tong is fishing here, but he just wants to assess him, and if he wants to take down Pang Tong, he must also show some of his skills to make this super strategist return to his heart.
With his understanding of Pang Tong in history, he will not let Pang Tong lead him away, knowing himself and knowing his opponent, he will not be defeated in a hundred battles, and his words directly poke into Pang Tong's death hole, appearance, has always been Pang Tong's inferiority.
After Sun Quan reprimanded, he took the initiative of this deliberate chance encounter very smoothly, he wanted to recruit Pang Tong, but the arrogance of the literati still had to be suppressed.
Pang Tong's character is too arrogant, so he will achieve nothing and leave such a failure in history.
"The prince actually knows a certain family!"
When Pang Tong heard this, he was slightly shocked in his heart, looked at Sun Quan, and was a little puzzled, he has not yet come out of the mountain, what can be famous, dignified Wu Guodonghou, who knows him now?
He said calmly: "A certain family has never walked in Jiangdong, and has never met with the prince, is it because you don't know the monarch and the marquis?" ”
Although Sun Quan spat out his ugly face, he really did not see the light of contempt, sympathy, or disgust in Sun Quan's eyes, so he was willing to talk to Sun Quan.
"Sima Sacrificial Wine of Lumen Mountain once said, Wolong and phoenix chicks, you can win the world, Zhuge Kongming is Wolong, and now he has been recruited by Liu Bei, and you are phoenix chicks, am I right?"
The corners of Sun Quan's mouth outlined a bright smile, and he said.
Before the establishment of the Wu State, the news came that Zhuge Liang was still the down-and-out Liu Bei who took refuge after all, and the three visits to the thatched house still staged a play in Xinye.
Later, Liu Biao founded the country, Liu Bei was made a marquis, and he got the title of a new wild marquis, but Liu Biao was still very wary of him, and his troops were still pressed by Liu Biao at the forefront of Nanyang and Wei.
"I understand, it seems that everyone in the world looks down on the brocade guard of Wu State!" Pang Tong's face sank slightly, and a spiritual light flashed through his mind, and he suddenly understood, and sighed: "You actually infiltrated the academy." ”
"Huh!"
Sun Quan smiled slightly, which was regarded as his approval, and said: "The princes of the world, what is the most important thing, is talent, so Jinyiwei naturally has to keep an eye on the cradle of talent." ”
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as staring at it, it's the first strike!" Pang Tong put his hands behind his back and said sarcastically. He didn't like the somewhat notorious organization.
Wu Guojin Yiwei, the ghost pawn of Wei, and the Jin State following Wu State, and Yingyangwei not long after the establishment of Wei State, are all organizations that scribes do not want to see.
"Haha!"
Sun Quan nodded, without a trace of embarrassment, and said frankly: "That's right, although our methods are a bit despicable, but this also shows that our Wu country attaches great importance to talents, so you Pang Shiyuan will come all the way to Wu country and fish here." ”
"What a Wu country, it's really good!"
The breeze blew, Pang Tong's eyes moved, looking at Sun Quan's slender body, there was a scorching light: "I don't know if my Pang Tong caught a dragon or a worm?" ”
"This question, Ben Hou is a little difficult to answer you!" Sun Quan and Pang Tong stood side by side, gazing at the magnificent Jinling City from this towering Zhongshan Mountain.
He squinted his eyes, groaned for a moment, and said: "Whether so-and-so is a dragon or a worm, to be honest, you don't know, I don't know, time can prove it, but you are here today, it is you who chose me Sun Zhongmou, I want to know, you yourself should also want to know, your choice is right or wrong, so ......"
Sun Quan paused, looked at Pang Tong with blazing eyes, and said loudly: "X, Sun Zhongmou, here today, I solemnly invite you to join Donghou Mansion, assist X, and confirm your own choice, right or wrong." ”
"Hahaha, the prince is so respectfully invited, how can a certain person not obey, a certain hope, a certain family's choice is right!"
Pang Tong smiled, with an ugly face, smiling brightly.
"Brother Shiyuan, welcome to Wu Guo!"
Although he knew the result earlier, Sun Quan was still happy to be able to take this super strategist into his arms, and stretched out his hand, his expression sincere and dignified.
"Donghou that Pang Tong is willing to work for, the work of dogs and horses!"
Pang Tong's expression was also very solemn and firm.
The two hands were tightly clenched together, clenched into a fist, and the sunlight above the sky poured down, refracting on the two of them, and the light was very gorgeous and colorful.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
After Sun Quan returned to Donghou Mansion, the court did not immediately let him rush to Jingzhou, and Gan Ning's solicitation also had problems, he was pressed by Huang Zu in Xiling, and he couldn't get out at all.
Sun Quan suddenly became relaxed, Sun Ce spared no effort to attack the Donghou Mansion during this time, but Sun Quan did not immediately start a counterattack against Sun Ce, but did one thing wholeheartedly, marry a daughter-in-law.
He is fifteen years old this year, and he will be sixteen years old during the New Year, in this era, a sixteen-year-old boy, and the crown, the crown ceremony, has reached the time to get married, and his little brother has become an adult, so he can't let it eat vegetarian all at once, and the two beauties around him can only look at it, can't move, it's a pity.
In this era, no matter how enlightened a woman is, she will not be open, she can kiss her mouth, but if she wants to crack before she gets married, it will definitely not work, so marriage has become his top priority now, and he must do it.
This is not a trivial matter, as his Sun Quan's status in Wu continues to improve, his marriage will affect the hearts of the entire Wu State.
Cai Yan must marry, and Zhen Mi must marry, but who comes first and who comes later? Theoretically, it should be Cai Yan first, but he can't be wronged by the goddess of Luoshui, he thinks about it, and simply marries together.
It's a good idea, but this old man is not easy to deal with.
The Zhen family is nothing, Zhen Mi also has two brothers, which are very easy to deal with.
Now the Zhen family is a wealthy merchant family, and the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce that joined it, with Sun Quan's relationship, the small profiteer Zhen Mi has developed the Zhen family very quickly, and the Zhen family of Zhongshan has gained a foothold in Jinling.
As long as you get Zhen Mi, you can get it, Zhen family.
However, the old man Cai of the Cai family is more difficult to deal with, before Sun Quan offended him miserably for the matter of Jiangdong Women's Academy, Sun Quan scratched his head, and there was no good way.
"Zijing, do you have a way to settle the Cai Da Sacrifice Wine?" Sun Quan thought for a long time, but he was out of options, so he directly called his number one strategist Lu Su and asked, "I'll marry Cai Xiaojiu first, but the old man is not easy to deal with!" ”
Now the top and bottom of Wu Guo call Cai Yong, the sacrificial wine of Jiangdong Academy, Cai Yong as Cai Da sacrificial wine, and Cai Yan of Jiangdong Women's Academy as Cai Xiao's sacrificial wine, which is easier to separate.
"Junhou, with your current status and reputation among the scholars, you can directly give a dowry, and Cai Da Sacrificial Wine has no reason to refuse you!" Lu Su was puzzled.
"That's because you don't know the old man's character at all, the old man's temper is soft and hard, if he doesn't want to, it's useless for the father to come forward, the old man didn't look at me once, and I recently offended a ruthless, if I just didn't have his permission to go to the dowry in a hurry, and refused to him, I would be embarrassed."
Sun Quan said with a bitter smile on his face.
"In this case, why don't you test him first?"
Lu Su didn't quite understand Sun Quan's thoughts, and the relationship between Sun Quan and Cai Yong, in his opinion, as long as the dowry was given, Cai Yong could only pinch his nose and agree, after all, Sun Quan's face, his face, can't be lost, but Sun Quan wants to be stable, he can only think about development: "See how he reacts?" ”
"How to tempt?"
When Sun Quan heard this, his eyes lit up slightly.
"Phoenix Seeking Phoenix!"
Lu Su pondered for a while, and said: "You copied a song of Phoenix and Phoenix, and then sent it to Cai's mansion to see the reaction of Cai's big sacrificial wine, if he didn't react, it means that he agreed, and the prince can send someone to propose marriage and give a dowry." ”
"Okay, that's a good idea."
Sun Quan was slightly overjoyed, and immediately walked into the study in a stormy manner, and with a stroke of his pen, it took more than half an hour to finish copying this song of Fengqiuhuang, and then quickly sent someone to send it to Cai Mansion in Wu County.
"Old man, don't make so many troubles, let me marry a daughter-in-law, otherwise my son will not be able to get along with you for the rest of his life." Sun Quan kept grinding his teeth and said fiercely.
The world is big, and for him, it is not as big as marrying a daughter-in-law.
――――――――――――――――――――
In the first year of the Warring States Period, in November, at the end of the month, on this day, the first snowflakes in Jinling City naturally fell.
In the midst of the snow, the atmosphere of the streets and alleys of Jinling City has fallen a lot, but in this cold weather, the Nancheng Market is still lively, coming and going, and the traffic is busy.
Sun Quan wore a pair of brand-new boots, stepped on the bluestone bricks scattered by light snow, wore a large jacket on his body, and wore a woolen hat on his head, followed by a young Pang Tong, Han Gang and Luohan followed closely behind with a dozen elite guards.
A group of them, walking and walking, came to the General Chamber of Commerce of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is now a behemoth of Wu, and the Chamber of Commerce has included sixty percent of the merchants of Wu, basically all of whom are large merchants, covering the entire Wuguo, from Jiaozhou to Pingzhou, there is the shadow of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
Today's Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is no longer the small chamber of commerce that has just been established and has almost no way to go, and the specifications that want to join the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce have increased a lot, even so, there are still many merchants who want to join the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, the influence of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce in the country of Wu is getting bigger and bigger, and on the land of the country of Wu, the humble status of the merchant has gone forever, although it is not on par with the scholars, but at least the farmers and businessmen have become the merchants and peasants.
As the headquarters of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, this courtyard located in the center of the southern city market not only occupies a spacious area, but also has a luxurious decoration.
"Prince!"
At the gate, Mi Zhu had been waiting for a long time with a few people from the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and when he saw Sun Quan, he immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Zizhong, have you all arrived?" Sun Quan walked into the Chamber of Commerce, untied his coat, handed it to Han Gang, looked at Mi Zhu, and asked.
"It's already here."
Mi Zhu nodded and said: "Today is the annual meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, and the merchants from all over the country have basically arrived, except for some people who really can't leave, and they have also sent their own important children to participate." ”
"It's good to be here!"
Sun Quan walked into the corridor, walked into a spacious hall, and scanned the Jiangdong merchants sitting in the hall.
"We meet the prince!"
Everyone immediately stood up, and the figure of Sun Quan, who was greeted by their eyes, said respectfully one by one.
"Everyone, this is the Chamber of Commerce, don't be too polite!" Sun Quan walked to the front of a Taishi chair and sat down, and now in Jiangdong, the habit of kneeling has begun to change, and many people have begun to customize Taishi chairs and high desks.
"No!"
These merchants respect Sun Quan from the bottom of their hearts, and without Sun Quan, they would not have their status at all.
The status of merchants has always been the most humble, but in today's Wu Kingdom, even some high-ranking disciples of the family do not have the contempt they had before when they saw these insignificant merchant children.
And now many merchants have sent their children to Zhongshan Academy to study, and they are a well-known reader.
This qiē is all because of Sun Quan, without Sun Quan, there would be no Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce.
"Today is the annual celebration of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, in the past year, the development of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce is proud, the achievements of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce are also amazing, and the contribution of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce to Wu is also appalling."
"I'm not a businessman, but I'm the president of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, and I'm proud of you."
"Again, I also thank you for your support!"
Sun Quan stood up, staring at the faces that were about to move, and saluted respectfully.
"This gift is too heavy, and we can't afford it!" A merchant stood up and arched his hand: "If there were no princes, we would still be lowly and unworthy merchants, not the current status, this is our bow for the princes, right." ”
"That's a great thing!"
"The kindness of the prince to our merchants is an unrequited kindness from generation to generation."
One by one, the merchants stood up and looked at Sun Quan, smiling and saluting respectfully.
"Hahaha, you've lifted me."
Sun Quan looked at them, and suddenly laughed with some feelings, he has ushered the Jiangdong business community into a new era, with the changes brought by Jiangdong merchants, the merchants of this era are already changing.
This is his credit and his pride.
"Merchant?"
Pang Tong has been walking Jinling with Sun Quan these days, from politics to the army, and is familiar with the court of Wu, but he did not expect Sun Quan to be so respected by these merchants.
Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, he also heard a little, especially the grain war between Jiangdong merchants and Danyang Haoqiang, this battle, Jingzhou also paid attention, and it was precisely because of this battle that Jingzhou's merchants were valued by Liu Biao a lot.
"Alright, you guys are going to be quiet."
Sun Quan looked at the chaotic hall, waved his hand, and said, "Today is not only the annual celebration meeting of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, Ben Hou still has something to announce. ”
"Prince, please."
In the hall, it calmed down instantly, and an old merchant arched his hand and said.
"In the past, I took over the position of president of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, so that the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce could be established without the pressure of the Jiangdong family, and arch the sky for businessmen."
Sun Quan's robe flicked, he walked down from his position, looked at a person, and said: "Today, the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce has been on the track, and it is time for this irresponsible president to retire, I hope that the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce can re-elect a president, bring businessmen, and move towards the future!" ”
As soon as his words fell, everyone was a little stunned, and they didn't know what to do.
"Prince, aren't you willing to shelter us merchants?" A tall and stout merchant stood up and said with some excitement.
Don't look at the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce now, even the Jiangdong family is still tough, but if there is no Sun Quan behind them, they can only be eaten away step by step.
"Naturally not, I am still the honorary president of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, but I can't shelter the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce for a lifetime!"
Sun Quan shook his head, his eyes burst out with a gleam, and said: "The Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce wants to be self-reliant, wants to have its own status, can't rely on others, can only rely on your own, I can still protect you now, but what about in the future?" ”
"Junhou, I believe that it will be possible in the future!" Calm Mi Zhu said in a loud voice.
"Hehe, you have faith in us, I am very grateful!"
Sun Quan smiled slightly, and said: "But I am not a businessman, businessmen can only rely on businessmen themselves, and no one who leaves can not move, if the Chamber of Commerce wants to stand, you must stand firm, this is a test for you, and it is also a test for businessmen, I announce, the next person is the president of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, Mi Zhu."
