Baili Xi calculated again, and started from scratch in the Song Kingdom to do some business.

He was determined to adjust his plans and study for another five years to earn enough money. I went to the city to look around a few times and found that the ash rod of the Song Guoning Mausoleum was a good thing.

The ash rod is white as jade, hard but not hard, soft but not broken, and the shaft can be bent to 180 degrees without splitting, and the flexibility is strong. It does not split in a dry place and does not deform in a wet place. Its elasticity and toughness are incomparable to other woods, and it is an ideal material for processing weapons and various tools.

So I rented a trolley and sold ash rods in small batches. After working for a year, he cut back on food and clothing, and saved money to buy a carriage. In the second year, there was finally a big improvement, and I was able to eat a little better. But he encountered a flood and washed him out with his car for dozens of miles.

It was easy to climb to the shore, and the carriage and money bags were nothing, and they were done in vain. He was thirty-nine years old.

I really don't have any money in my pocket, and I don't even have the capital to start a small business. Not to mention learning, I didn't even have a place to eat. What should I do? I can't starve to death like this.

Bai Li Xi wiped away his tears and decided to beg! No matter what he said, he couldn't die, and he had to live better.

While begging along the street, he observed all kinds of items on the streets of Suiyang, the capital of Song Guoguo, and secretly figured out how to earn the tariff. But there's never much to do from scratch.

This year was the eleventh year of King Zhuang of Zhou (686 BC), and he was forty years old.

It's a June day, and it's hot to death. Baili Xi begged for food and arrived in Song Guoyi. Fortunately, you can go to the fish pond to catch a few fish, tell the households, and borrow the stove fire to cook and eat.

On this day, I was catching fish in the reed pond. Suddenly, it rained heavily, drenching him all over. He hurriedly jumped out of the reed pond and hid under the eaves of a house.

I have been suffering from fever for the past two days, and I have no money for treatment, so I am trying to eat more fish to increase my resistance. After this rain, at this moment, I suddenly felt that my head was too dizzy, and I wanted to die. He barely held back his eyes, but his body was weak, and he still fell bald, and fell on his back under the eaves of the family.

When he woke up, the owner of the house gathered around him. A middle-aged man and a stunning woman, with two young teenagers behind the woman. Two maids stood beside him, one holding a cold towel in his hand, which seemed to be a cold compress for him. A maid was holding a clay bowl in her hand, presumably feeding him ginger soup.

Knowing that it was the family that saved him, Baili Xi slowly got up, knelt down to the family, and said calmly: "Thank you Brother Tai for saving your life! The villain Yu Guo Baili Xi, the character Ziming, who is forty years old this year, dares to ask Engong Gao's surname? Ziming will be rewarded as long as there is a slight turn for the better in the future." ”

The middle-aged man hurriedly helped him up and said: "A certain family is a native of this Song Kingdom, the surname of the son, Jian Shi, Jian Qi Bend, three in the family, known as Uncle Jian, is seven years old Chinese New Year's Eve today. We took the child back from our relatives and saw you lying under the eaves of the house, looking wonderful, and we carried you into the house. ”

Jian Qiwan and Baili Xi talked about current affairs, and Baili Xi responded like a stream. Jian Qi was impressed by Baili Xi. Caixue, this thing, brought them very close, and the two discussed and cherished each other.

Jian Qiwan listened to Baili Xi's life process, and couldn't help but be moved to tears by his spirit. Jian Qiwan's family is relatively prosperous, and he is determined to help Baili Xi complete the final stage of his study plan. Baili Xi was moved, and became brothers with him and became friends of life and death. Baili Xi is a brother, and Jian Qiwan is a brother.

Uncle Jian, the younger brother, is not an ordinary person, and he has the wisdom to know the situation. Uncle Jian put forward a lot of suggestions and advice in terms of Baili Xi becoming an official.

In this year, the son of Qi at that time killed Qi Xianggong in ignorance, established himself as the king, and recruited talents. So Baili Xi wanted to go to Qi Jun for ignorance, but was dissuaded by Uncle Jian at this time.

Uncle Jian said: "Xianggong's younger brother Xiaobai and Jiao, who died abroad, have no well-known position and are not right, and they will not succeed in the end." ”

So Baili Xi dispelled the idea of answering the call. Later, Qi Jun was ignorant and was killed by Yongli and others. Baili Xi obeyed Uncle Jian's advice and avoided being killed this time.

Soon, Baili Xi heard that the younger brother of King Zhou was fond of bullfighting, and anyone who raised cattle for him could be treated well, so he prepared to go to Luoyi, the national capital, and wanted to get close to and take refuge in him by raising cattle.

Before leaving, Uncle Jian admonished: "Husbands should not lose their lives lightly. If you abandon it, you will be unfaithful, and if you are in trouble with you, you will be unwise. This trip, brother is cautious!"

After eight years of cattle breeding, Baili Xi got acquainted with Wang Ziqiu, and the two were also very close friends. Wang Ziqi gradually learned about Baili Xi's talent and decided to reuse him.

At this time, Uncle Jian came to Luoyi, and the two went to see Wang Zi Decadence together.

Back at his residence, Uncle Jian said to Baili Xi: "The prince is ambitious and talented, and most of the people he trusts and uses are lowly and good at pleasing people, this person cannot be relied on, it is better to leave here as soon as possible." ”

In the second year of King Hui of Zhou (675 BC), the prince launched a rebellion with five doctors including Jiang Guo, expelled King Hui of Zhou, and established himself as the son of Zhou Tianzi. In 673 B.C., the combined forces of Zheng and Yu invaded the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, killed the prince and the five doctors, and King Hui of Zhou was reinstated.

Because of Uncle Jian's warning, Baili Xi was spared a difficulty. The failure of this surrender made Baili Xi very chilled, so he took the rich reward he received from Wang Ziqi and began to sell cattle. Traveling to and from various countries, shuttling, always grasping the trends of the world, summarizing the gains and losses of various countries, and growing slightly.

In the past 14 years, Baili Xi cattle have accumulated a lot of wealth. At this time, he was already sixty-two years old, and because he had been away from home for 30 years, he wanted to return to his hometown in Yuguo for development.

Uncle Jian had an old friend named Gong Zhiqi, who was working as an official in Yu State at that time. So, Jian Qiwan and Baili Xi came to Yu Country together. Baili Xi sent gifts, Uncle Jian praised Bai Li Xi's virtuous ability to Gong Zhiqi, and under the recommendation of Gong Zhiqi, Bai Li Xi presented a gift to Yu Gong and met Yu Gong as he wished.

After coming back, Uncle Jian said to Baili Xi: "I think Yu Gong loves to be greedy and cheap, and he is not a promising master. ”

Baili Xi spent a lot of money this time, and it was difficult to start a business quickly, coupled with long-term poverty, he was eager to make a living, so he didn't listen to Uncle Jian this time, and stayed in Yu Country as a middle doctor.

Uncle Jian's fears soon became a reality. In the twenty-second year of King Hui of Zhou (655 B.C.), the seventy-one-year-old Baili Xi became a captive and a slave, and his life fell to the lowest point.

fled to Wanyi in Chu State, herded cattle in the official mansion as a slave, and was finally rescued by Qin Mugong, invited into Qin State, and worshiped as the head of the Zuo Concubine. Before paying homage to the prime minister, he played against Qin Mugong, and explained Uncle Jian's talents to Qin Mugong in detail.

Qin Mugong invited Uncle Jian over, first awarded the doctor, and then moved to the right chief. The two brothers were at the same time in the court of Qin Mugong, and it was rumored to be a good story.

Baili Xi's son Baili Shi, that is, Meng Mingshi, surnamed Baili, name Shi, word Meng Ming, under the careful cultivation of his mother Du Jinwei, as early as when Baili Xi returned to his hometown, he was thirty-one years old and became a brave and invincible general.

But Meng Mingshi took his mother out to make a living for ten years, Baili Xi was a doctor in Yuguo, and the father and son failed to meet.

When he arrived at Baili Xi Qin State to worship the prime minister, Meng Mingshi was already forty-two years old and lived with his mother in Qin State. Hearing that his father paid homage to the prime minister and took his mother to run, Baili Xi and Du Jinwei's old husband and wife were reunited. Meng Mingshi has since served Qin Mugong and become a generation of famous generals.

Uncle Jian's two sons, Xi Qishu and Bai Yibing, are also brave and invincible. These three were often appointed as marshals by Qin Mugong together, and they were famous generals in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The father and son of two generations of five famous ministers directly pushed Qin Mugong to the throne of the "Spring and Autumn Five Tyrants".

The story of the reunion between Bailixi and Du Jinwei after 40 years has touched hundreds of people all over the world. There are many dramas that sing "Baili Xi Recognizes His Wife".

Governor Yu Hou said this, and bowed to Guo Fushe, the governor of Ningzhou: "Because Manager Guo suffered a lot in the world in his previous life, there is basically no great suffering in this life. Engaged in business to become rich, to the old position to the county prince, and was awarded the title of god of selling during his lifetime. It can also be regarded as the reincarnation of heaven, and good deeds are rewarded. ”

The general manager of Ningzhou, the god of Shu brocade sellers, and the Deyang Gongguo Fushe smiled bitterly: "In the way of selling, where do the blessings come from, every copper plate is soaked with the blood and sweat of our dealers. It's just that compared with Baili Xi, my generation does not have so much suffering. ”

Lu Ling Dashuai, Sichuan Pepper Selling God, and Gu'an Hou Liu Yongchun exclaimed: "In Guo Dashuai's previous life, the time of raising cattle, selling ash rods, and selling cattle in Baili Xi was greater than my life extension in the world. Baili Xi's body must be the best in order to live a long life, and finally achieved such an achievement, which is really admirable. ”

The gods also admired Guo Fushe and his previous life Baili Xi very much, and were amazed.

Baili Xi's heart-wrenching story caused the gods and immortals to discuss, and the meaning was still unfinished.

Emperor Wenlie of Pingdu said with a smile: "I am waiting to read history in the world, and I can't see Bailixi's commercial activities at all, it only shows that he was rescued by Uncle Jian. This is known, before the age of seventy-three, he only worked as a doctor of Yu Guo for nine years. And before the age of sixty-four, just relying on Uncle Jian's help, I am afraid that I will starve to death. ”

Fanwei Emperor Chen Zhe said: "In history, before Uncle Jian was recommended by Baili Xi to be promoted, he was a commoner in the Song Kingdom, no matter how much money he could help, how much money could he spend to help Baili Xi to deal with Yu Guo? ”

Everyone talked about it, and I don't feel like another day has passed. The Yuan Dealer God declared: "Tonight, the thunder of Laba will not move. I will come here early tomorrow morning to learn about the miracles of the gods in their past lives. ”

The gods and immortals stood one after another, clasped their fists at the Yuan Dealer God, and shouted in unison: "Obey the order!"

The next day, the morning court had passed, and the hour was all to the blood and black treasure hall of the governor of Yuhou, and continued to listen to the history of the gods in their previous lives, and to understand the experience of the merchants of our previous great people.

The Baixiang Fairy took the lead in standing up and said a blessing to Du Yu Hou and the spring wine seller Lacquer Carving: "May I ask Du Yu Hou, the chief god of Baixiang, the chief manager of Liangzhou, who has a long life of 100 years old, but which one of his previous lives was it?"

Qi Diaohui stood up, said a blessing to the Yuan Dealer God, hugged his fist to the gods and immortals, and said: "The Grand Governor of Liangzhou, the God of Spice Sellers, Chen Tan, the Duke of Pengyuan County, the word Qiaozhi, is one of the four friends of King Wen, Nangong Shi is reincarnated. ”

Emperor Fanwei suddenly became interested: "Great-grandson, your grandfather and I am the reincarnation of Lu Zijing, if you want to talk about the seniority of your previous life, you, Nangong Shi, don't know how many generations higher than me?"

When the gods and immortals heard this, this question was really a problem.

Qi Diaohui couldn't help laughing, and laughed: "Chen Tan is okay, he is a descendant of Emperor Fanwei in the world." But it is still the Yuan Dealer God who said it well, since he has become a god, the generations in the world and the generations in the previous life, it is better not to take it too seriously. ”

The gods and immortals turned to look at the Yuan Dealer Emperor, and he couldn't help but laugh, and said a reason, the gods and immortals all bowed their heads and said yes, and the seniority of the god realm should not be discussed. So, what does the god of the Yuan Dealer say?
