Chapter 213: Cunning Guests, Come to Fight (37)
When Tian Yu heard the words of his second son, a glimmer of uncertainty flashed in his eyes - his second son was smart and cunning since he was a child, and when he was only three years old, he was favored by the masters, accepted as a closed disciple, and brought back to his seclusion to teach power and strategy.
I just came down the mountain and returned to Fuchu two years ago. As soon as he returned to the mansion, he discussed with himself about taking charge of the secret guards in the mansion. During this period of melee between the vassal states, the major clans kept a lot of private soldiers in private.
I don't know from which family's mansion began to emerge from the so-called "dead soldiers", different from the kind of assassins who assassinated King Wu, these dead soldiers were born to protect the main family, and died to protect the main family.
This kind of subordinate no clan will not like it, and if he likes it and is rich, he will naturally begin to cultivate willfully. However, after all, the dead soldiers are private soldiers, and no one is so willful to declare them.
So as soon as the second son came home, he opened his mouth and asked for a private soldier, and Tian Yu was so angry that he almost smashed the good paperweight on the table.
But after taking the school exam, I found that the second son, who has never been close to him, has indeed learned a lot of strategies, although some of them are slightly damaged, but they are all effective methods.
There are also a lot of his sons, all of whom are unrealistic to give the position of the head of the family, and some people are willing to take charge of the forces in the dark, and Tian Yu is also happy to see it, so the second son has taken over their Tian family's hidden piles and dead soldiers in various places since two years ago. He even developed quite a few informants hiding in other clans' mansions.
The powerful guest secretary who was talking about at this time must have been a message from an informant hiding in Cui's family. Unexpectedly, Xiao Er was able to break his own people into the Cui family, and Tian Yu was immediately very satisfied with the ability of this second son.
"Keqing? I haven't heard of it, and I have to ask the second brother to provide more information. ”
Tian Yu's whole thoughts are long, but a flash in his mind is just a blink of an eye. The eldest son, Tian Zhang, had just responded to his younger brother's words at this time.
"It's nature. I heard that this guest secretary's name is Wang Mo, and he came from the north. He did a very interesting thing before, it is said that he helped Li Zhen, the county guard of Mocheng, to guard a wave of cities, and when the monsters attacked, he expected it in advance, took precautions in advance, and finally helped Li Zhen escape under the pursuit of a group of rebellious soldiers.
Now in Chen State, he is quite famous. “
"Oh? So he entered Linzi as Cui's guest this time, did he want to earn enough other capital in Linzi? It's just a white ......"
"Big brother, don't look at this white clothes, if this decree of 'big bucket lends it and small bucket takes it back' is really implemented, this person's heart will be biased towards the Cui family......"
Tian Chen saw that his eldest brother didn't receive the key words in his words at all, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Where does he care about that guest secretary, what he cares about is the political situation of this Lu country.
Now that the princes are fighting, the state of Lu is fighting with the state of Wu in the south, and the military rations cannot be connected for a while, which is the most discussed topic in the court at this time.
It was Minister Cui Wen who proposed to find private loans to solve the urgent need. Lu Gong saw that someone was finally willing to propose a solution, instead of thinking that the quarrel was war or peace, so he responded happily.
The measurement system used by Lu is a quadratic system of "four liters for beans, four beans for districts, four districts for kettles, and ten kettles for gongs", but Dr. Cui Shiqing, headed by Cui Wen, suggested changing the quadruple system to a pentadecimal system at this time.
He also agreed to use the new system when borrowing money from the people, and the old system when repaying the loans. In this way, many people will be willing to borrow their grain deposits, and at the same time, they will be grateful to the Cui family who has given them benefits.
However, this is good news for the Cui family, but it is tantamount to a head-on blow to their Tian family.
