The Sword Dynasty - 756. Chapter 755
Some people’s pursuit is wealth and comfort, but the more people go to heights, the more they want to be able to grasp their own destiny, because they will find that when they can’t truly control their own destiny, the current wealth and comfort, Will be lost at any time.
A wealthy businessman in Changling City, I am afraid that he only needs a big man’s heart, and he will become insecure.
Su Qin looked at the remains of the Qisi people, and felt that he was better than the Qisi people because he would only live for himself.
In Yongfu County, Jiaodong County, a fierce battle has ended.
The remnants of the Chu army and the armies of the Nanquan counties, as well as the various reinforcements from the territory of the Chu Dynasty, annihilated the main force of the Zheng’s clique in Jiaodong County.
After a long journey, the remnants of the Chu Army can finally stop temporarily and get enough breathing time.
An veteran of the Chu army, after picking up the long sword of the dead companion, turned and looked back in Chu’s direction. With this one look, he fell down and never got up.
There is more than one picture like this on the battlefield where the battle has ended.
Many people suddenly fell to the ground after the battle, but they all faced the direction of their homeland.
They were already too tired, and their bodies had already exceeded their limits. When they finally reached a stable place and completed their mission of protecting their companions, they relaxed, but they could no longer support them.
The granary in the city was ablaze. In the final stage of the battle, the Zheng family’s army, who knew that it could not be defeated, burned the grain and grass.
Just an hour after the battle was over, there was already a fleet docked at Yongfu Port, and a large amount of grain and grass were transported ashore.
Some Chu generals were shocked and speechless.
They knew that these food and grass did not come from their own arrangements, but were related to a mysterious figure related to the Bashan sword field, but these food and grass all came from Chu, who has the ability to prepare such a large amount of food and grass early in Chu territory. , Delivered here at such a fast speed?
“What kind of person is it that can let the wealthy Guanzhong put money into his hands with confidence?”
When those Chu would be thinking about food and grass, Li Hou was thinking about it.
He is entering Chongyun Town in a carriage.
Chongyun Town is one of the few ancient towns in the Great Qin Dynasty. It is located on the Wushan side of the Qin Chu border. It is obviously very close to the battlefield. However, because the road is too difficult to be a place for the army to pass through, it avoids the history. All the wars that have appeared in this area.
Chongyun Town became one of the gathering places for caravans, but it was also because the roads were difficult.
There are also many hunters and herders in mountainous areas where roads are difficult to navigate. These areas are sparsely populated, but they are rich in production. Some ordinary goods, such as rice, tea, etc., can be obtained by transporting them to these areas by humans. Generous returns can be exchanged for fur, elixir and other things of amazing value.
The difficulty of the road can only rely on the strength of the feet or the mules and horses. It takes a long time to walk, and a lot of supplies must be prepared. There must be many caravans of this kind to shuttle back and forth. Many years ago, Chongyun Town became lively like this.
However, the surrounding area of Chongyun Town is still barren, and the ordinary materials transported by these caravans cannot attract the attention of the court. Moreover, although it can obtain more than a hundred times the profit, the amount of exchange is originally not much, and it is not worth the court. Think more.
The core area of Guanzhong is far away from this heavy cloud town, and no one will associate the wealth of Guanzhong with such a remote place.
However, who would have thought that Guan San Gongzi, the mysterious figure who managed most of the wealth for these Guanzhong giants, would have lived in such a place for a long time.
Wealth is often associated with wine, mansions, beauties, and extravagant life. But what is there other than the barbarism left by the caravan?
“What’s in this place, it’s worth staying here?”
So when the carriage stopped in front of an ordinary stilted building, Li Hou walked out of the carriage, walked into the stilted building, and looked at the two people in front of him, he couldn’t help but directly ask such a sentence at first.
In front of him was a middle-aged man and an old servant.
The middle-aged man is calm and is making tea.
Dark tea is brewed in the iron kettle. The tea is dark in color, but it has a unique fragrance.
“Do you know who I am?”
Looking at Li Hou, an absolute uninvited guest, the middle-aged man didn’t look much surprised, just smiled and asked.
“I am not asking you, I am asking him.”
Li Hou laughed too, his eyes fell on the old servant behind the middle-aged man.
This old servant wore an old patched robe, which had been washed to a moon-white color and could not see the color it used to be.
He had been hanging his head slightly before, always showing respect. He waited until Lihou said this before he raised his head.
“How do you know it was me?”
The old servant also asked rhetorically. His face is very ordinary, and it really seems to have gone through a lot of wind and frost, leading a hard life, without any trace of pampering.
“A real tiger, even if you lie in the weakest posture, you can tell at a glance that it is a tiger.” Li Hou smiled and said.
The old servant was silent for a moment, then looked at Lihou and said, “Only you are a person like this, and only people who have seen many such people can recognize the difference at a glance. Which prince are you in Daqin?”
Li Hou was a little surprised, and he was slightly surprised: “Da Qin is just a few princes. Since you have guessed that I am one of them, can’t you still tell?”
The old servant smiled and sighed: “I haven’t asked about the world for many years, but I don’t know much about the outside world.”
Li Hou’s eyes suddenly sharpened, “I don’t know much about the outside world, so I should know my identity, Guan San Gongzi?”
The old servant’s expression remained unchanged, and shook his head in response to Li Hou’s gaze, “I can be Guan San Gongzi or not Guan San Gongzi.”
At this time, the middle-aged man who was sitting in front of him and making tea had stood up, but stood behind the old man.
The old man sat down, and Li Hou also sat down opposite him.
“I don’t quite understand the meaning of this sentence.” Li Hou asked, taking the tea cup brought by the old servant.
“I’m just a handler, and I can’t control anything by myself. As long as the clients want, they can change for anyone to be Guan San Gongzi at any time.” The old man smiled slightly and said: “You should understand that any coin or Silver bills are actually symbols with no value.”
Li Hou frowned.
The old man looked at him, and then said peacefully: “Da Qin’s wealth is in the hands of Guan Zhong Zhuhao, so Guan Zhong Zhuhao can’t fall… You should understand that even if they wipe out all the money they have now, if they don’t recognize all of them. The coins in circulation now, the coins of this dynasty have also lost any value, I am afraid that nothing can be exchanged in the market.”
“What you said is very reasonable. There is indeed such a possibility.” Li Hou also looked at him peacefully and said: “But the point is that not everyone will have the determination to burn the jade and the stone. As long as some of the key figures are resolved, Maybe things will be solved.”
The old man laughed more gently, and then asked, “Have you ever thought that you want to find some key people through me, but I might just be a bait to lure people like you to the bait?”
