Chapter 375: It's still the Qi State that is rich

The envoy sent by the State of Qi was Wang Sun Jia.

Wang Sun Jia's official position in the Qi State is not very high, but his prestige is very great.

In that year, Le Yi attacked Qi and broke through Linzi, the capital of Qi, and only Jucheng and Jimo were left in the entire Qi country, and the king of Qi fled to Jucheng. The state of Chu sent the general Nao Ya to lead the army to rescue Qi, and the king of Qi appointed Nao Ya as the prime minister to command the soldiers and horses of the Qi state to resist Yan.

As a result, Naoya turned around and cut down the King of Qi, preparing to divide the Qi land with the Yan Kingdom.

After Wang Sunjia heard about this, he walked out into the street and raised his arms, and led hundreds of people to hack Nao Ya to death.

After the recovery of the Qi State, Wang Sun Jia was rewarded by the King of Qi, but he was not reused, but the generals and nobles who abandoned the city and fled were reused.

Many people in the Qi Kingdom were upset about him, but he said: "I didn't kill Naoya to avenge the king to get an official position, and the king has already rewarded me." ”

Later, Xunzi left the Jixia School Palace, and Zhou Zi and Lu Zhonglian also left Qi State successively.

In the face of the withering Qi State, the Empress Dowager Qi had no choice but to send someone to invite Wang Sun Jia.

"The widow has heard Mr. Da's name for a long time." Zhao Kuo arched his hand and said.

"King Zhao has won the award, and his cheap name is not enough to enter the ears of the king." Wang Sunjia leaned over and said.

"I wonder if King Qi is in good health?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"I'm tired of King Zhao's concern, the king is young and strong, and his health is very good." Wang Sunjia said.

"In this case, the King of Qi is already an adult, why is the Queen Mother still in power?" Zhao Kuo asked.

Wang Sunjia's body stagnated, thought for a moment, and said without humility or arrogance: "The king is leading troops to fight outside, and everything in the country is entrusted to Xinling Jun." Could it be that Zhao was in power by Xinling Jun, not by the Great King? ”

"Hahaha, Mr. is so eloquent." Zhao Kuo laughed.

"Thank you, King, for the compliment." Wang Sunjia said. "The foreign minister heard that Zhao Guo is willing to sell a batch of war horses and ploughing cattle to my Qi State, I don't know the specific amount?"

"10,000 horses, 20,000 oxen. 181 horses and 6,001 cattle. Grain transactions are discounted by ninety, others are discounted by ninety-five, and coins are ten. Zhao Kuo stretched out his hand and said.

Qi is different from other countries, in Cai Ze's strategy of attacking from the south to the north, Qi and Yan are the first countries to be attacked by Zhao, and only by solving these two countries can Zhao obtain a stable rear.

Even if Zhao wanted to make money by selling horses, it was impossible for Qi to have too strong military power.

As for ploughing cattle, it doesn't matter, the country of Qi is already rich in products and there is no shortage of food. In the past, at the border of Zhao, Yan and Qi, people often ran from the two countries to Qi.

The increase in grain production will not be transformed into military power, and it will not have any impact on Zhao State, but on the contrary, Zhao State can purchase more grain, and in the end, Zhao State will benefit.

If it weren't for the lack of ploughing cattle, Hetao would still have to keep breeding cattle, and Zhao Kuo would like to sell more ploughing cattle to Qi Guo.

Wang Sunjia was a little surprised, he didn't expect Zhao Guo to be willing to sell so many cattle and horses, he originally thought that it would be good to have a few thousand.

"Yes." Wang Sunjia said immediately.

"In addition, there are matching stirrups and saddle horse iron hooves, which can enhance the combat effectiveness of the cavalry, a set of fifteen hundred dollars, I don't know if the Qi country needs it?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"Yes." Wang Sunjia immediately said, it can improve combat effectiveness, why not? If it's more expensive, it's more expensive, and my Qi country is not short of this money.

"And the groom who is good at raising horses, do you need a veterinarian who treats horses?" Zhao Kuo asked again.

"Yes." As soon as Zhao Kuo spoke, Wang Sun Jia nodded in agreement.

It was still King Zhao who was thoughtful, and even took into account raising horses and getting sick.

Yes, all of them!

"Do you need a curved plough for ploughing? It only takes one cow to pull, which is faster, more efficient, and has a deeper furrow. Zhao Kuo asked again.

"Qu Yuan plow? Can a cow really pull? Wang Sunjia said in shock.

You must know that Qi has used two oxen to pull a plow until now, and even so, it is much faster than Weiyun, and Zhao Guo actually has a plow that can be pulled by an ox!

"Sir, you can read it and decide whether to buy it or not." Zhao Kuo said with a smile.

"As long as it is better than the plough of Qi country, my country of Qi will buy it." Wang Sunjia said.

'Qi State compensated so much grain last year, and it is still so rich, it seems that it will take some effort to squeeze it dry. Zhao Kuo thought to himself, so he said, "Many places in Qi Country are in mountainous areas, and it is difficult to irrigate farmland, and I Zhao Guo has a waterwheel that can lead water from low to high, I wonder if Qi Country is interested?" ”

"Waterwheel?" This time Wang Sun Jia hesitated, Qi is rich, although the five kingdoms of Qi have greatly damaged the vitality of Qi, but after Tiandan restored Qi, Qi has not experienced war, and has accumulated countless wealth in the past twenty years.

But no matter how much money you have, it's not like that.

"Buy." Wang Sunjia thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and said.

Qi is hilly, and if the waterwheel can really lead the water to the heights, the help to Qi will be too great, and a lot of farmland can solve the drought problem.

Anyway, if you don't sign it now, you will sign it after seeing the real thing, if you are fooled by King Zhao, it will be a big deal to regret it.

"I, Zhao Guoguo, have Handan College, and Qi State has Jixia Academy, as the two largest universities in the world, they should help each other. So I Zhao Guo plans to sell a large batch of paper to Jixia School Palace, and the price is fifty percent according to the market price, I don't know if Qi Guo is willing? Zhao Kuo asked again.

There is no way, Qi Guo is too rich, and it is really unwilling not to squeeze him out of Zhao Kuo.

If he refused, the group of people in the school palace knew that he would not be killed. Wang Sunjia thought for a while, but could only grit his teeth and nod in agreement, "Buy it." ”

It seems that he is almost at the limit, I don't know if it is the limit of Qi Guo or the limit of what he can use. Zhao Kuo thought in his heart, "After Mr. entered Zhao, he must have also seen the road of my Zhao Kingdom, how is it compared to Qi Kingdom?" ”

"The road of Zhao is flat and wide, which is not comparable to my Qi country." Wang Sunjia didn't know how these roads were built, but he had to admit that the roads of Zhao Guo threw Qi several streets.

"As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, build roads first. Only by repairing the road can goods circulate quickly. The reason why my Zhao Kingdom has developed so fast depends on these roads. Qi has developed commerce since ancient times, but its development has been slow, and what it lacks is roads. I, Zhao State, can sell the cement used to build roads to Qi State, I wonder if Qi Country is willing? Zhao Kuo's face was full of smiles, like an old fox staring at his prey staring at Wang Sun Jia.

I thought it was a big family, but it withered before it squeezed out.

It's still rich in Qi country!

Although Wang Sun Jia's name is Jia, he doesn't know anything about business. He didn't know if Zhao Guo was developing so fast because of these roads. However, he always felt that if he wanted to get rich, he should first build roads, which seemed to make some sense.

And the road of Zhao is really easy to walk.

"I'm afraid that my Qi country needs a lot, and the foreign minister needs to go back and discuss with the king and the queen mother before making a decision." After a moment, Wang Sunjia replied.

Although he didn't ask the price, Wang Sunjia knew that it was definitely not cheap, and King Zhao was darker than some black-hearted businessmen.

He can't use so much money, and even Qi Guo may not be able to take it out, and the Queen Mother must be in charge.
