Chapter 430: The Twentieth Task Qin Shizhi's Liu Bi's Ambition 3
Liu Bi's family is the richest man in Huaiyin City, and it goes without saying that his family has a lot of money. Speaking of Liu Bi's father, who is thirty-seven years old this year, in addition to Liu Bi's wife, Wu, also accepted the wife of the fourth aunt. These aunts and wives are intriguing and noisy all day long. Put a fusmoky miasma.
Because there is only one male in the family, although they are all very noisy, no one dares to beat Liu Bi's idea. Liu Bi lives alone in a small courtyard with his own kitchen. Although he spends most of his time going to eat with his parents. But it's still convenient to have a separate courtyard.
In the following days, Lu Renbing carefully inquired about the era, no matter how chaotic this world is, there should be a main line time.
Korea, the State of Zhao, which had been destroyed by the State of Qin, was now cleaning up the State of Yan and the State of Wei, and by the way, it fought a wave of the State of Chu. There is a landmark event, that is, the deeds of Jing Ke's assassination of Qin happened three years ago. Although it was not successful, Jing Ke is still famous all over the world.
If nothing else, it is really that the Qin State is becoming more and more domineering, and the six countries of Kwantung are simply difficult to resist. The people of the six eastern countries all hope that a hero can kill Qin Wangzheng and end this troubled era.
Yes, everyone thinks that the current state of Qin is the root of the cholera world. Everyone used to be the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, how good it is to live a peaceful and stable life, you have to annex other people's countries, and stop other people's sacrifices, this is not what the cholera world is.
Ignoring these for the time being, Lu Renbing relied on his own memory to roughly determine that Jing Ke's assassination of Qin was the twentieth year of the reign of King Qin, 227 BC. The battle of Qin to destroy Chu was divided into several stages, when Qin Wangzheng was in the twentieth year, he captured more than a dozen cities in the north of Chu, and attacked Wei by way, and in the twenty-second year, that is, last year, he sent Li Xin to lead an army of 300,000 to attack Chu again, and returned with a big defeat.
According to the records in the official history, this year the Qin State will send the general Wang Jian to destroy Chu again. This year is the fifth year of the defeat of the king of Chu.
There are indeed large armies on the front line, but it doesn't seem to have much impact on Huaiyin. Well, maybe the war of annihilation recorded in the history books is very brief, and it is only recorded that the capital was captured in such and such a year, and a certain Wang was captured. But in the real war of annihilation, it may take longer to occupy the entire territory.
The wars of the Warring States Period were different from those of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the military system of each country was a conscription system, and the object of conscription was the peasants. A big businessman like the Liu family is not required to serve in the military. It's enough to pay the taxes. During the Warring States Period, countries did not have strict restrictions on merchants, and each country also had policies to attract investment.
LĂź Buwei is not the only big businessman who is engaged in strange goods in various countries. The relationship between the merchants and the noble families was inextricably linked. For example, the Liu family has a close relationship with the Xiang family. The ancestral home of the Xiang family is one or two hundred miles away from Huaiyin. The Xiang family is the descendant of Xiang Guo surnamed Ji, and the Liu family has a close relationship with the Xiang family.
If nothing else, he will also be one of the important funders of Xiang Yu's eight thousand disciples in the future.
However, the current Lu Renbing didn't have the heart to think about this, he was now thinking about how to protect the family in the upcoming battle of Qin and Chu.
If it is the official history, the future Xiang Yu's opinion, after Xiang Yan's death, will move to the Huiji Mountain. And among Xiang Yu's eight thousand disciples, there was no good brother named Liu Bi. What does this mean? It shows that Liu Bi must have been cannon fodder in the war.
Although this world may not be the official history now, according to Lu Renbing's own experience, it is very likely that he is also a Lu Renbing character, and Xiang Yu should be one of the protagonists of the era anyway.
Then what should I do, follow Xiang Yu? There are still decades in the future, and Xiang Yu will have to hide in Tibet. Their old Liu family has a big business, what should they do?
Well, Lu Renbing has already discovered that the Liu family's industry is quite huge, and Liu Bancheng in Huaiyin is by no means a lie. The Liu family's industry involves salt and grain, and half of the shops in Huaiyin City are owned by the Liu family. Half of the fertile land in Huaiyin County was also under the control of the Liu family. The granary where the family hoards grain has hundreds of thousands of loads of refined grain all year round. Otherwise, why would the Xiang family of the generals of the times look down on the businessman Liu family.
There are thousands of child servants in the Liu family, and there are probably tens of thousands of people who live on the Liu family. It can be regarded as an absolute local hero, and now the Chu State is in turmoil. After the Qin State called, a fat sheep like the Liu family would definitely be the focus of the search.
If the city surrendered, it might be temporarily let go by the Qin people, but then it would become a thorn in the side of the Chu people. In the future, when Qin dies, it is inevitable that he will be liquidated.
The biggest problem now is that Liu Zhi, as the head of the family, that is, Liu Bi's father, does not have a sense of crisis. is still immersed in the gentle countryside of Aunt Sifang's wife.
Liu Bi's grandfather was a strong man, and the family's wealth reached its peak under his leadership. But he only got Liu Zhi's only seedling in terms of heirs, and accepted a few aunts' wives, and after seeking fruitlessly, he could only put all his love on Liu Zhi. So Liu Zhi was raised into a bun.
Liu Zhi is not vicious, but he is too well protected. Although he will not be a loser, don't expect him to have any great knowledge. After Liu Bi's grandfather died a few years ago, Liu Zhi suddenly lost his control, and suddenly lit up his concubine skills, and accepted the fourth aunt's wife in one go.
Then there was incompetence in governing the family, housework was a mess, noisy all day long, and the aunts and wives also moved things to their parents' house one by one, dug the corners of the Liu family, and made the house a miasma.
The families of these aunts and wives are constantly being inserted into the Liu family's industries, enriching their own pockets and embezzling family property. Liu Zhi, who was not very smart in the first place, was already dizzy just by dealing with these aunts, and he couldn't take care of the family property for a long time.
Liu Bi's mother, Wu, because she was old, was not treated by Liu Zhi, and she had no power at home. I can only watch my family business being hollowed out by moths. She can only put all her thoughts on her son Liu Bi, and constantly tells him to study hard, so that he can find an official position in the future and jump out of the barrier of the Liu family.
But now Lu Renbing can't watch his own money being emptied by others. We also have to find a way to survive the catastrophe of the Qin army's annihilation of Chu.
Well, as for whether this world is a martial arts world or a fairy world or something, it is not on Lu Renbing's heart for the time being. If you don't have money, you can't mix up the world. What's wrong with martial arts, there's no money, do you let those heroes eat and drink? Why did Huang Rong look at Guo Jing, it's not that Guo Jing is stupid and has a good heart.
So Lu Ren Bingqin's Mingyue's start is a house fight!!
And at this time, Jing Tianming was practicing swords with Gai Nie, and learning the Eight Veins of the Strange Meridian with Duanmu Rong! Xiang Yu followed his own group of muscular men to train muscle blocks.
