Facing his mother's question, Yan Wei smiled: "Zhaoguo has adopted new farming techniques, supporting agricultural tools and improved varieties of witchcraft, but in two or three years, the grain that was originally not enough to supply a state is more than enough to supply Wei and Liang. If it is fully rolled out, within ten years, the grain will be piled up in the barn, moldy and rotten, and there will be no one to eat. β
Da Chen couldn't imagine that scene.
She lived in the country, and was accustomed to seeing the people hungry and fed, and even the tenants who worked for their families did not have a good lifeβeven when she was already very generous, and had paid all the exorbitant taxes.
How can there be so much food that no one eats it? It's impossible!
Yan Wei ignored his mother's shock at all, and said to himself: "Therefore, in the future, Zhaoguo will not need so many young and strong cultivators at all." β
"Such a fanatical and belligerent atmosphere in the Zhao Kingdom, the land was barren before, and they had to fight every day. In the future, when food is abundant and young and strong are vacant, King Zhao will definitely form a private army that is completely loyal to the king, and this is my opportunity! β
Da Chen was speechless at all.
She looked at her son in a daze, almost thinking that Yan Wei was crazy.
I don't know how long it took for her to barely regain her voice, and asked with difficulty, "Are you so sure that King Zhao will use you?" β
"You may not use me, but you will definitely not use these existing generals!" Yan Wei was extremely calm, "The Wang family and the Meng family are certainly trusted by King Zhao. But they stretch for three generations, and their in-laws are intertwined. β
"As for other generals, either they have a position, or they have in-laws, or they have connections with the harem, they are not the best choices."
"And I, with no family, no relatives and friends, am clean and clean, and I have not much to do with all forces. As long as my art of war and ability and means can be recognized by King Zhao, I can compete for this position! β
Da Chen gasped.
She never dreamed that her son's ambition would be so big.
Even if he is the person with the highest official position in the Yan family, her father-in-law is only a doctor, and he hasn't even mixed up with a lower secretary.
Although this is related to the situation that Liang Guo values the family, and the environment of Zhaoguo is relatively relaxed, Yan Wei's goal is directly aimed at Shangqing!
What arrogance!
Da Chen's upper and lower teeth were a little warp: "I thought that you thought that the situation was complicated and you needed to think about it more, but you didn't expect it-"
Yan Wei replied as a matter of course: "If it wasn't for the position of minister, why didn't my son go to be someone else's guest?" β
From his uncle, he learned a truth.
It is not difficult to convince a person.
But it is simply impossible to want this person to go exactly as you want.
Even if he can manage to make the uncle obey him, it will be useless. Because he can't follow his uncle all the time, and the other party's talent is not enough to deal with complex things.
Don't say anything else, just let the uncle meet the king, or the three princes and nine kings, and chat a little bit, the other party can know the uncle's level and immediately detect his existence.
Flesh and blood relatives are still like this, let alone going to be the door of the minister?
If you have the trust of your benefactor, can you really win better than other people's children and grandchildren, and the people next to you?
After understanding this, Yan Wei made up his mind that he would never be anyone's doorman.
At the same time, he also refused to start as a petty official.
The world values identity, if he compromises for life, becomes a doorman and a small official, and then climbs up, it will be countless times more difficult than going up with the false name of "the grandson of the doctor".
From the very beginning, Yan Wei's position was at least "Qing".
Seeing his mother's frightened expression, frightened by his boldness, Yan Wei softened his voice and reassured: "I just wanted to go to the Zhou family to inquire about some news, but they suddenly fell from Gaomen to Baiding, and they have a more urgent desire to restore their former status. I have a lot of money and a lot of connections, so I naturally get more information than I do. β
Who would have thought that such a case would fall directly into his hands?
Da Chen's throat was dry: "You are not for Xiaomei and Xiao'an at all, you are completely for yourself, gambling with their lives-"
"The son saved the little aunt and escaped the tragic fate of being ravaged by one man after another and being defiled as a slut by women." Yan Wei didn't feel that he had done anything wrong at all, "My cousin's pure heart, being a rich man, and being stable for a lifetime is the best way for him." I let him get all the property of the Zhou family, as well as the name of filial piety, and even go up to the heavens, and from now on he will have no worries about his life, is this not enough? β
Da Chen couldn't refute it.
Although Yan Wei's purpose was not pure, he did not rush to harm people from the beginning, on the contrary, he also helped Xiao Chen and Zhou An's mother and son.
In addition to taking risks, Zhou An actually made the most suitable choice under Yan Wei's hint and got the best result.
If Yan Wei hadn't had the insight into the truth and added fuel to the fire, the mother and son didn't know how long they would have been trapped in the cage of the Zhou family, and maybe their lives would have ended like this.
Although Da Chen had long recognized her son's ruthlessness, she still felt a little tired when she saw that Yan Wei had no intention of reflecting at all.
The tragic experience of the rest of the Yan family, Yan Wei watched from the wall, and there was an explanation, after all, the Yan family was really not good to them.
But what did Xiaomei and Zhou An do wrong?
Yan Wei can obviously come up with a more secure solution, don't say no, with his brain, if he wants to do this safely, there is definitely another way.
He deliberately instigated Zhou An to kill someone, that is, knowing the special identity of the deceased and the existence of Yang Yuan's political enemies, this case will become a big case that everyone knows!
That's right, Yan Wei won the bet and got a good result.
But even if he loses, what does he have to lose? It was Zhou An who was beheaded, and it was Xiao Chen who couldn't survive, could it be that Da Chen could hold his only son accountable for the death of his cousin he hadn't seen for decades?
Thinking of this, Da Chen couldn't help but be a little disheartened: "So? How do you think they can help you? You also heard Xiao An's words just now. The Empress Dowager Shouyang is very cold to her little sister, and the princesses and wives are just going through the motions, and the little sister can't make friends with them at all, let alone help. β
As for Zhou An, Yan Wei said that this cousin should be a rich man, basically denying the possibility of the other party joining the army, politics, and business, let alone helping.
"Empress Dowager Shouyang? Greedy people who don't do anything when they collect money! If she was a man, she would have been unable to mix in officialdom for a long time, where did she have today's prominent status? It's nothing more than relying on the dignity of the queen mother, and there is nothing to fear. β
Yan Wei saw it very clearly: "The people she showed favor to were all people valued by King Zhao; People that King Zhao doesn't value, she won't touch. β
"If her son really goes her way, first of all, she will not succeed, because she will not really introduce her son to the king; Secondly, even if it does, it will only be an endless burden. β
Da Chen was frightened, but he could only pretend not to hear: "What are you going to do?" β
