Chapter 309: Visitors
Time always passed very quickly, and Shang Ying had been in the Qin State for several years, and in these years, the Qin State had also undergone tremendous changes. Military, political, and agricultural aspects are undergoing tremendous changes and are developing rapidly. And it was Shang Ying, who had been in the Qin state for less than ten years, who caused this qiē development.
In the first period of this year, Shang Ying did not directly enter the court of the Qin State, but began to visit various places in the Qin Dynasty to understand the situation of the entire Qin State. And after doing this qiē, Shang Ying entered the court of the Qin State and began his own path of reform.
"I didn't expect that the Qin State would change so much in the past few years, it seems that the current Qin State has really begun his road to hegemony. "Kong Ru, who lives in the Qin State, is also very aware of the changes in the Qin State, and clearly sees that the Qin State is constantly becoming stronger, although the current strength of the Qin State has not yet reached the first-class level, but according to the current development, it is inevitable to reach that point.
"Sir, there are people outside asking to see you. While Kong Ru was thinking, Qiren walked in from outside and said respectfully to Kong Ru. The current Qiren's cultivation has also reached the realm of Da Luo Jin Immortal, but his appearance is still that of a child. When he was a god, Kong Ru did not take Qiren with him, but this time he came out and took Qiren with him. The last time I was a god, I still had a lot of calculations, and I didn't want others to know, but this time I entered the human race completely to continue to understand, and there was nothing special.
"Well, you bring him in. After Kong Ru finished saying to Qiren, he also woke up from his thoughts, casually took a bamboo slip from the bookshelf next to him, opened it, and began to look at it.
There are no special furnishings in Confucius's house. The only thing that stands out is the bamboo slips that take up most of the house. Many of these bamboo slips are the doctrines of the hundred schools of thought spread by the human race in these hundreds of years, and many of them are books in Kunshan of the human race, and the last most are some of the insights written by Confucius during this period.
However, most of the things written by Kong Ru were written down casually, and they were also very simple. But although these things were superficial things for Kong Ru, they were a valuable asset for any cultivator in the desolate world. Moreover, the things written by Confucius are not so simple, and these bamboo slips need a certain amount of cultivation if they want to read. After all. If these things are known to people who don't have any cultivation, they won't be beneficial, but will cause some bad effects. This is also the reason why Kong Ru would place such restrictions, and even if there is cultivation, only those who cultivate the heroic and righteous qi of the human race can see it, which is also some of the inheritances that Kong Ru wants to leave for the human race.
Soon, the two of them followed Qiren to Kong Ru's side. Qiren brought the two to Kong Ru's side. And did not say anything, but the world departed after a respectful salute.
After the two entered the house, they began to constantly look at the situation of the whole room, as well as Kong Ru who was sitting in the house. As the two of them looked at the situation in the house, the two couldn't help but become surprised. The entire house is almost completely occupied by bamboo slips. There are also quite a few long scrolls, books, and the books in the whole room are even richer than those in the Qin Kingdom.
And when the two of them saw the names and labels of several books around them, they couldn't help but be even more shocked. Each of these books can be said to be very rare, and each of them can be said to be classics. They all have a great influence among the human race. And now in such a small courtyard, seeing these books, the two of them couldn't help but be more curious about Kong Ru, curious about who Kong Ru was.
"Qin Guoying Quliang met with his predecessors. "Disciple Shang Ying greets his seniors. The two respectfully said to Kong Ru deeply, but Kong Ru didn't say anything, and his eyes swept the two slightly. The spirit continued to turn to the bamboo slip in his hand, ignoring the two. Although Shang Ying was a disciple of the Legalists, the roots of the hundred schools of thought were all in Kunshan, the holy land of the human race, although there were disputes between them. But it can be regarded as the same origin, and they are also related to each other, and it is precisely because of this that Shang Yang is so self-contained.
These two people are the Guogong Yingquliang and Daliang Merchant Martingale of the Qin State, and the two can be said to be the two most powerful people in the Qin State now, controlling all aspects of the Qin State. However, although the identities of the two are good, in the eyes of Kong Ru, there is no difference between them and ordinary people, and they are just their juniors.
Although Kong Ru only glanced at the two of them, the two of them felt that they had been completely seen through in an instant, and there was no secret on their bodies that could be hidden under this glance. Feeling this situation, the hearts of the two were even more shocked, and the mood that had originally had some atmosphere completely dissipated in an instant, and all that was left in their hearts was respect.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the sky began to darken from afternoon to evening. Qiren also came in from the outside, lit the oil lamp in the house, and then walked out of the house directly, and in the whole process, he didn't look at Yingquliang and Shang Ying, as if neither of them existed.
"What's the matter with the two of you coming here?" Kong Ru casually put the bamboo slip in his hand on the bookshelf next to him, and turned his gaze to Yingquliang and Shang Ying. While speaking, Kong Ru's hand waved gently, and Ying Quliang and Shang Ying stood up straight, and the soreness on their bodies because of maintaining their posture also completely dissipated in an instant.
"Senior, I came here to ask my seniors how my Qin State should become strong?" Kong Ru has lived in the Qin State for decades, but although his deeds can not be hidden, he has not made the slightest publicity. Therefore, although Kong Ru has some reputation in the Qin State, his reputation is not very prominent, and the place where Kong Ru lives is relatively secret, and there are very few people who know it.
And it was a coincidence that Yingquliang and Shang Ying were able to find Kong Ru, and when they were nearby, they heard Kong Ru's reputation, so they came here and found Kong Ru.
"Hehe, now that the Qin State has changed the law, it is more than ten times stronger than ten years ago, as long as the change can continue, the Qin State will naturally become stronger, so why look for any way. What's more, the old decay has reached this age, and he doesn't know much about the things in the outside world, so what can he do. When Kong Ru heard Ying Quliang's words, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, telling the situation of the Qin State.
"Senior, martingale is a shallow learner, although the art of the Legalist can make the national strength of the Qin State quickly stronger. But if the Qin State wants to be truly strong, it needs more than just the art of the Legalists. Shang Ying stood up and said. In the past ten years, Shang Ying also clearly felt the development of the Qin State, but the Qin State also had great shortcomings in terms of officials. Because the Qin State is located in a very remote place, the power of the Hundred Schools of Princes in the Qin State is still very weak, and the knowledge of the officials is also very limited, which has also become an obstacle to the current law change.
"Well, yes, the sea can become big only if it embraces all rivers, and only when it accumulates mountains and earth can it become high. However, it is very simple to change the method, and it is only by buying bones that you can see its sincerity. Kong Ru said lightly. Although Kong Ru's words did not say anything directly, Yingqu Liang and Shang Ying were both people with high understanding, and they soon understood what Kong Ru meant. Although there is no allusion to the later generations of the daughter buying horse bones, the two of them can still understand the meaning of the daughter buying the bones.
Although the current Qin State has become powerful, the news has not been spread to other countries, and the status of Shang Yang in the Qin State is not known to outsiders. Now that Kong Ru said such a method, the two of them knew in an instant how they should act, as long as the matter of Shang Ying was publicized, then there would definitely be many unpowerful people in the Six Kingdoms of Shandong who would come to join the Qin State.
Kong Ru's attention made the eyes of the two of them light up, and they began to ask Kong Ru other questions, and the three of them spent a whole night in constant conversation.
