Chapter VII Unsuccessful Borrowing of Money
Chu Fei didn't have too much in-depth understanding or inquiry about the word "cold", maybe he was different from others, maybe it was related to his own meridians, in short, sometimes, he himself also noticed that he was different from ordinary people, even if few of the teenagers here were ordinary people.
But fortunately, he finally arrived on the other side safely. Finally, I didn't suffer because of my sixth sense.
And after the end of the day, Chu Fei and a few people on each side finally arrived in the Qi country.
In fact, when it comes to this, there are countless sorrows hidden in it.
Long before it reached the Heavenly Side, a large part of the land was already owned by the Qi State, but it could only be a wasteland.
The rise of the military camp, facing the Xiongnu in the north and the strong Qin in the west, used the male army to resist or conquest the strong foreign enemy, but the Zhao State is located inland, in addition to the development of agriculture, the economy in many aspects is very poor, which also makes the Zhao State a country of strong soldiers and a country of poor soldiers, and the difficulty of military salaries - very difficult.
Zhao repeatedly "ceded land" to Qi in exchange for military salaries, which also made the land to the east of Zhao become less and less.
But the general Li Mu is not very human, he is not an extraordinary strongman, but an extraordinary thief, and when he talks about business, most of them have to pay attention to the way out.
Zhao Guo's soldiers are strong, Qi Guo is not as good, naturally Zhao Guo said what is what. But how to use the land cut out is naturally a matter for the Qi country.
Qi country, just let this land be idle. There's no way, who knows when Li Mu will come up with a crooked idea and take back the crops planted in this land?
Therefore, in addition to some merchants coming and going to trade, Zhao does not farm, and Qi does not farm.
But when you think about it, this situation is also very helpless, or sad. Zhao State resisted the external enemy with the strength of one country, and Qi State, the country of military quartermasters, did not take the initiative to support, just because the war did not intersect with its own land in a short period of time, and it was just that.
After Qianzhuang became strong, this situation turned around, but no matter how powerful Qianzhuang was, it was still a businessman, not comparable to politics, not an enemy army, not as good as a peasant, and it was the lowest level.
Moreover, no matter how rich the three surnames of Qianzhuang are, they still can't support the supply of soldiers and horses for the entire Zhao State.
The military camp of Zhao State is definitely not only in Handan, the entire military camp of Zhao State needs money and has to raise soldiers.
The soldiers of the Zhao State that Chu Fei came into contact with are estimated to be less than one of the ten, even if there is Li Mu and Lian Po.
If the relationship between Qi and Zhao can be summed up in one sentence, it is:
Qi Guo looked at the present, and Zhao Guo looked at the city.
If you want to add the Qin State, it can only be:
The Qin State looks at the world.
There was already a gap between the seven countries, and the war also started because of this. The emergence of the four sects did not break these barriers, but chose a closed method to carry forward a status in the four countries themselves, either agricultural doctors, or military and so on. But the estrangement still exists, and after all, there are many things to be afraid of.
Military salaries are among them.
......
Linzi of Qi is its royal city, and compared with Handan of Zhao State, it is less majestic, but more rich. Compared with Xingcheng in the Wei State, here is really rich.
Qi is rich, and most of them rely on the business of Qian Zhuang, and the money shopkeeper himself is already a master of the auspicious Yuan period, which makes Qian Zhuang strong in Qi State.
Compared with the disunity between the military and the government of Zhao, the finances of Qi are not necessarily unified, politicians disdain merchants, and it is difficult for merchants to have a connection with royal power, so Qi is very stable compared to Zhao.
Of course, such a result also has its bad manifestations, that is, the rich money bank has some embarrassing status in the Qi country.
The best embodiment of this is the money house of the money shopkeeper.
In modern times, if a wealthy merchant wants to live in the royal city, how can he get a house in the second and third rings, the center is the king's residence, and he can't be offended, but he can still be rich and make the ghost grind.
But the money shopkeeper's Qian Mansion is in an extremely remote place in the northwest corner of Linzi City.
Linzi is rich and huge, which makes the Qian Mansion particularly remote, if you look at it from the perspective of modern people, it can really be said that the suburbs can no longer be suburban.
Modern wealthy people live in the suburbs because of the good air and environment. But the money shopkeeper settled here entirely to reflect his humble status.
And this embodiment also makes the endless rise of Qian Zhuang in the Qi country, even if the rich rival the country, there is still nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, a lot of that wealth is used on the people of his country, and everyone has money, which is easier to manage, and King Qi doesn't know how much he values Qianzhuang.
Of course, as mentioned earlier, the people of Qi only look at the present, and naturally, the king of Qi values not the strength of the money bank, but the financial resources......
At this moment, Chu Fei and the others standing at the gate of the Qian Mansion looked at the huge gate of the mansion, which could be regarded as magnificent, and even the guards in front of the door were also very strong.
If the slave wears armor again, it is estimated that this place will be regarded as a general's mansion, but unfortunately, it can only be the mansion of a rich family, and it can only be a Qian mansion.
When the servant guarding the door saw someone clubbing at the door, he naturally went up and asked, "How many people, you've been standing here for a long time, is there anything wrong?"
"Chu Jingyi, a native of Xia Qin, came to visit the money shopkeeper today. Chu Fei bowed and said.
The other party is just a slave, and it is indeed a great thing to salute like this. The slaves themselves felt a little embarrassed. But most of the people who ask people to do things are like this, and this slave is not a slave of someone else's family, but a slave of the Qian Mansion, which is naturally different.
So, the servant just calmly asked again, "I wonder what is the matter with my master?"
Without waiting for Chu Fei to reply, Feng Duo said first: "Borrow money from the money shopkeeper for Zhao Guo." ”
Who knows, as soon as these words came out, the slave immediately turned his face: "No money, don't borrow, don't send it away." ”
Sure enough, talking about money hurts feelings, and Li Mu wants to borrow money, so he won't show you mercy.
But this was not what Chu Fei said, but what Feng Duo said, naturally, even if there was no twist in the other party's words, he could find an opportunity.
"My lord just said that he is from the Qin State, and his name is Chu Jingyi. Feng Duo repeated the content of Fang Cai Chu Fei's words.
The slave was puzzled, but he didn't want to leak the embarrassment of ignorance, so he could only say angrily: "Who is your lord and what does it matter to me, even if Li Mu is here today, the words are still the same." ”
Feng Duo said with a smile: "A few months ago, the military camp recruited some young people, and the first place was my family. ”
The slave wanted to say "what does it have to do with me?" again, but instead seemed to understand something.
The recruitment of the Zhao State military camp is known to the whole world, and the result naturally became part of the discussion of these subordinates during that time, and the first place representing the poor class was naturally mentioned by many people.
Of course, now the slave does not dare to reply rashly not because of Chu Jingyi's status in his mind, but because of Chu Jingyi's status among the four sects.
If there was only one debt-laden Zhao State military camp behind him, the slave would not bother to pay attention to it at all, but if he was a personal disciple of the two families, then the medicine hall of the Qin State would basically be passed on to him, in other words, the person in front of him might become the master of the four sects in the future.
Li Mu is also the master of a family, but his brazen way of borrowing money has long made him less threatening and more obscene. But Yaotang, this slave does not dare to despise it.
But the words he said were like water spilled out, and the reason why he was able to stand at the front door showed that he was different, in other words, his words could not and could not be taken as fart by others.
Therefore, "what to do with me" does show that there are too many money banks, but not all of them.
"Although the people of Qin have business dealings with my money bank, but whether they borrow money or not, it is not that you can be influenced by a Qin person, the shopkeeper is indeed not in the house today, if you really want to borrow money, then you will naturally go to the city to find it, and it is best to say it to Boss Pei, Boss Ying and the money shopkeeper together. The servant said suddenly calmly.
Although the way the slave speaks has changed, the content of his speech has not changed much, as if to say, I don't care about this, you can ask the big man in charge yourself.
But just like this, there was already a lot of information here in Feng Duo, and after Feng Duo wanted to understand what the slave was talking about, he frowned again, and whispered to himself: "I see, it turned out to be him......"
Of course, others didn't know what this meant, even Chu Fei felt strange.
Even the slave who heard this was puzzled, and wondered, Is this a mistake?
Of course, Feng Duo would not be mistaken, he knew what to do after the slave finished speaking, but it was naturally not these things that he had thought about borrowing money all the way, so he finally figured out some things.
Feng Duo is not Chu Fei, he is good at scheming, so he is naturally one step faster than Chu Fei, but sometimes there is more than one step.
"That is to say, the three surnames of Qianzhuang have some tests waiting for us, and only after passing can we borrow money. Chu Fei said calmly.
The slave did not speak, did not approve, but did not object. But this acquiescence was originally an answer.
Chu Fei didn't ask again, and the natural slave didn't need to answer again. He just turned and walked away.
The slave looked at Chu Jingyi, who had left, and felt that this group of people was unusual, and he was even muttering, do you need to report a message to Master Qian or something......
However, he didn't report it in the end, because he knew that no matter how many teenagers who borrowed money could play their own little calculations, they would not be able to defeat the money shopkeeper after all, because:
The money shopkeeper is the one who knows how to plan the most!
