"No, no!" Guan Zhong said to Qi Xiaobai.

"Buying a large amount of timber and forage from northern Hebei, wouldn't a large amount of silver flow into his pocket?" Qi Xiaobai looked at Guan Zhong and said.

He felt that Guan Zhong was a little confused, even if he wanted to build a large number of buildings and build a palace or something, Qi Xiaobai Jue should not buy Le Yi's wood.

"If you believe me, then use my method, I will make a military order to you, if you don't eliminate Le Yi in two years, I am willing to come to see you!" Guan Zhong looked directly at Qi Xiaobai and said.

Hearing Guan Zhong pat his chest like this, Qi Xiaobai was silent, the so-called use of people is not suspicious, suspicions are not needed, Guan Zhong has helped him so much, if it was not for Guan Zhong, maybe Qi Xiaobai would have been killed by Qi Zhu a long time ago, so Qi Xiaobaijue's Guan Zhong would not harm him.

"Father Zhong, the so-called employment is not suspicious, and there is no need for suspicious people, since I worship you as my father, crown you as the prime minister, give you Shangqing, and the ministers respect you as the chief minister, I should believe in your ability, I will wait for two years, you help me eliminate this Le Yi!" Qi Xiaobai said to Guan Zhong.

After Qi Xiaobai and Guan Zhong discussed some other things, Guan Zhong left, and Qi Xiaobai looked at Wei Dexian: "Tomorrow, you send me a message to Qi Jiao, and ask him to go to northern Hebei to buy a large amount of timber and forage." ”

Wei Dexian nodded, although he felt in his heart that Guan Zhong's method was a little unreliable, but he didn't dare to ask, although his current status was much higher than that of ordinary ministers, but it was still far from Guan Zhong's.

After Qi Jie received Qi Xiaobai's order, Qi Jie was stunned and didn't understand what Qi Xiaobai was going to do: "What is my white brother going to do?" Even if he wants to build a lot of construction, he can't buy Le Yi's wood, right? Isn't this helping Le Yi make a fortune? ”

"This is the method that Guan Zhong thought, saying that by using this method, he can destroy Le Yi in two years!" Wei Dexian said to Qi Jiao.

"This is a special fart, I will write to Xiaobai, as long as I give me a logistics guarantee, I can calm down Le Yi, he doesn't need me, he actually wants to use Guan Zhong's old horseman's money policy!" Qi said indignantly.

He wrote to Qi Xiaobai many times, and was willing to send troops to pacify Le Yi, but Qi Xiaobai did not approve it once, but Guan Zhong said this, using a seemingly illogical method, this Qi Xiaobai actually agreed decisively, which made Qi Jiu's heart a little unbalanced.

But there is no way, although he thinks that Guan Zhong's strategy is a bit fantastical, can he calm Le Yi by sending money? But he also knew that Guan Zhong was a talented person.

Although Qi Jie was unwilling, Qi Xiaobai's order had already been issued, and Wei Dexian had also brought a lot of money, so Qi Jie could only go to Le Yi to buy timber.

After Le Yi got the news, he laughed heartily, he was worried about money, he didn't expect Qi Xiaobai to come here to buy his wood.

Le Yi's position, the north is blocked by foreign races, and the south is Qijiao, and he can only go to Qijiao if he wants to trade.

But in order to suppress him, when Qi Jiu was trading with him, he greatly made his business very difficult.

He once wanted to collude with Zhao Guo to do business, but the way to Zhao Guo was blocked by Qi Jiao, as long as his caravan went to Zhao State, Qi Jiu would disguise himself as a horse thief to rob his caravan.

Of course, it was not only Qi Jie who robbed him, but also the people of Zhao Guo, Zhao Guo hated Qi Guo to the core, he didn't care if you were Qi Jie's army or Le Yi's army, when he saw the caravan of Qi people, he robbed it.

Although Le Yi's autonomy in northern Hebei is very high, in the final analysis, it is a vassal force under Qi Xiaobai, but the autonomy is very high.

When he learned that Qi Xiaobai was going to buy wood and forage, he didn't think about it, so he asked the soldiers and the people to go to cut wood, dig grass, and sell it to Qi Xiaobai.

He felt that as long as he made enough money, he could strengthen his army and make his Northern Hebei Cavalry Regiment even stronger.

Le Yi's advisor put Qu aside and said, "Master Hou, I think this may be a fraud!" ”

"What's the explosion? One hand pays, the other hand delivers, he gives us money, we give them wood and grass! Le Yi said to Jiang Qu.

After listening to Le Yi's words, Jiangqu was silent for a while, although he felt a little strange, but he couldn't feel anything strange.

In this way, the people in Le Yi's territory began to cut trees, dig grass, and plant trees on a large scale, and they felt that planting trees and logging was a high-income thing.

And Guan Zhong's secret letter arrived at Qi Jie, and Guan Zhong asked Qi Jie to still block Le Yi, which was more closed than before.

Qi Xiaobai bought these woods, and really began to build a large number of palaces, expanding the territory of Qi Palace in Yingqiu.

Although Qi Xiaobai bought wood and forage here, the Qi people didn't say anything, after all, Qi Xiaobai was very wealthy and had a sufficient treasury.

The people of the Qi Palace did not say Qi Xiaobai, but the Confucian scholars wrote to Qi Xiaobai one after another, saying that Qi Xiaobai was rampant, and the ancestors who did not understand the hard work and enjoyment of the ancestors only knew how to let Qi Xiaobai stop buying wood and forage.

After seeing this business opportunity, the merchants of Qi also bought a lot of wood from other races and sold it to Qi Xiaobai, but Qi Xiaobai didn't ask for it at first, but when he saw rare wood, Qi Xiaobai would buy it at a very low price.

When the merchants saw that Qi Xiaobai's price was very low, they didn't sell it, but seeing that the wood was kept like this, it would die in their hands, so they had to accept the reality and sell it to Qi Xiaobai at the lowest price.

This made many Qi merchants lose their money......

At this time, Qi Xiaobai was in the upper court, and the two Qi soldiers who had gone on an expedition to Dongyi Island returned to Yingqiu, and he looked at Qi Xiaobai: "Meet Duke Huan!" ”

One of these two Qi soldiers is a soldier under Zhou Baotong, and the other is a soldier under Wang Yi.

Qi Xiaobai looked at the two of them and said, "Why did your general let you come here?" ”

"Duke Huan, General Zhou fought in the Dongyi Island Country and got a lot of treasures specially dedicated to Duke Huan!" Zhou Baotong's soldier spoke first.

When Qi Xiaobai heard this, he said with interest: "I thought they were fighting in the Dongyi Island Country, and they forgot that they were the courtiers of the Qi State, so bring the treasure you said!" ”

The soldier had several boxes brought in, opened them, and the boxes were filled with jewels.

This is the property of the daimyos that Zhou Baotong collected, originally Zhou Baotong wanted to take it privately, but Zhou Baotong's military advisor persuaded Zhou Baotong to dedicate these jewelry properties to Qi Xiaobai.

Zhou Baotong thought about it for a long time, and finally chose to dedicate all his jewelry to Qi Xiaobai......

Qi Xiaobai looked at the jewelry in the box and nodded: "Baotong is still very sensible this week!" ”

"Duke Huan, General Zhou also prepared a special gift for Duke Huan!" The soldier said to Qi Xiaobai.
