Chapter 760: Tea and Chatter
The King of Wei was particularly shocked by this, not to mention that he didn't hang any plaques in the mansion when he came here, and no one told him about it later.
So he asked, "Is that really the mansion of King Yu?" Why have I been here for such a long time and no one has ever talked to me? ”
Chen Changsheng said: "Probably because it has been too long, and there are very few people who remember it. ”
King Yu, I don't know how many years ago.
In addition, Qingshan City was entered by the rebels before, and under the confusion, no one knew about it.
So, time can really make people forget a lot of things.
King Wei nodded, and then asked: "I want to ask Mr. one or two, if the residence is the mansion of King Jing Shiyu now, will it be a little inappropriate for King Ben to live in that mansion again?" ”
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said: "Lord Wei doesn't have to worry, the world is now not Jingshi, Jingren, Xiangren, and Northern Desert people have been integrated many years ago, and no one will care too much about such a thing." ”
King Wei nodded and said, "That's good, but it saves trouble." ”
He came back to his senses and asked, "But I don't know where Mr. Chen is?" Or is it the same as Xuan Chengzi's Taoist leader, and he is also a cultivator? ”
Chen Changsheng said with a smile: "Chen is just a tourist. ”
King Wei understood, and then asked, "Then Mr. Chen must have been to many places?" ”
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "That's right. ”
King Wei then opened his mouth to ask questions: "In the early years, this king had a very good relationship with a martial artist in the rivers and lakes, a few years ago he suddenly told me that he was going to the fairy world, holding a small boat and going to the sea, when he left, he told me that he went to Penglai Immortal Island. ”
"Since then, he has never looked back."
King Wei then asked, "But I don't know, has Mr. heard of this Penglai Immortal Island?" ”
Chen Changsheng was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "That old friend of Lord Wei is a swordsman?" ”
King Wei paused for a moment and said, "How does Mr. know? ”
"Earlier, Chen also heard that a swordsman went to Penglai Immortal Island and went straight to the fairy world."
"Isn't this true?"
Chen Changsheng looked at King Wei and asked, "It depends on what Lord Wei is asking, whether Penglai Immortal Island exists, or whether there are really immortals in the world." ”
After hearing this, Lord Wei smiled and said: "Naturally, it is Penglai Immortal Island, in fact, this king is not interested in the so-called Immortal Dao, but the so-called Penglai Immortal Island, it will always make people curious when they hear it." ”
Chen Changsheng thought for a while and said, "As far as Chen knows, the name of Penglai Immortal Island seems to be only passed down by people, and there is no way to study it, right?" ”
King Wei shook his head and said, "This king doesn't know about it, and he hasn't consulted this. ”
Chen Changsheng said: "I took a name called Penglai Immortal Island, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it is really an immortal island. ”
He knew about the island.
It's not a fairy island, it's just a place where the port of the flying boat is located.
It's like a hub between the human world and the world of cultivating immortals.
Xuan Chengzi also agreed: "What Mr. Chen said is good, the so-called Penglai Immortal Island is just a conjecture name in someone's mouth." ”
Prince Wei paused for a moment and said, "Doesn't that mean that the friend of this king has lost his life if he doesn't return it?" ”
Chen Changsheng said: "People have their own fate, and this is not necessarily the case, and Lord Wei should also believe which of your friends is." ”
Wang Ye Wei paused for a moment, but then waved his hand.
Lord Wei sighed: "I don't understand, everyone in the world wants to become immortals and live forever, and some even become demonic because of this, what is good about this immortal." ”
"The word cultivation has been stigmatized in those gods and ghosts." Wei Wangye said: "Cultivation is cultivation, and immortality should be two different concepts, and the purpose of cultivation is not simply for immortality or immortalization." ”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng said, "Lord Wei has a good understanding of cultivation. ”
Wang Ye Wei said with a smile: "I have known the Taoist for a long time, and occasionally eat tea and chat, and I always understand some truths. ”
The three of them chatted in the pavilion until the afternoon.
Lord Wei didn't care so much about this gentleman at first.
But the more I talked, the more I was shocked.
This gentleman seems to know everything.
Astronomy and geography, the five elements gossip, the practice of immortality, politics, military, and economics, there is almost nothing that this gentleman can't answer.
It is said that he is a profound monk, but many times he only speaks like a learned scholar, and this contrast makes King Wei even more curious about this gentleman.
The first impression is that I think that the gentleman in front of me has seen a lot.
"Nowadays, the merchants of the world are lowly, but this king is very optimistic about the merchants, in the previous accounts of the household, although the proportion of commercial taxes is not high, but in fact, this force has been growing......"
"The movement of a merchant is also related to many things......
Prince Wei paused for a moment, but said: "But the king's views are in conflict with the world, if you value business, you will fall into the mouth, and there are words that officials do not compete with the people for profit, but if there is no interest involved, how can this business road develop, so it is a headache......"
Chen Changsheng listened to King Wei's understanding of merchants, and then spoke: "Lord Wei has new aspects of things, which is particularly valuable, the status of merchants is indeed low, but if it is controlled and used, it can indeed play a key role, and even businessmen can be related to the survival of a country." ”
After hearing this, Lord Wei paused and said, "But it doesn't necessarily have to be so serious, right?" ”
Chen Changsheng said: "If the commercial tax exceeds half of the annual treasury receipts, Prince Wei may be able to feel how much influence the merchant has." ”
After hearing this, Lord Wei smiled helplessly: "Sir, isn't this a joke? How can the commercial tax exceed half, this is impossible, impossible. ”
Chen Changsheng didn't say anything more but said, "Maybe in the near future, Prince Wei will be able to see some signs." ”
"What did you notice, sir?" Lord Wei asked, "Could it be that the businessman wants to prosper?" ”
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said: "But I can't say for sure, it's just that there is just this possibility, but in fact, some traces have already been revealed, and Prince Wei should know that the Tang Clan's firm, together with the merchants, will definitely be of great use in this troubled world." ”
Prince Wei paused, and then thought about it.
When he mentioned the Tang Clan's firm, he was a little displeased.
In his early years, he suffered a loss.
But he had to admit that the Tang Clan Commercial House did have a lot of energy.
Seventy percent of the trade routes in all parts of the world were opened by the Tang firm.
The stakes are also enormous.
