Wei Rang said this, meaning to let Ji Sunluan choose by himself, does he choose to listen? Or choose not to listen?

But in reality, it was not an option, because Wei Rang had already cornered him.

Now his reputation has spread throughout the aristocratic circles, and he has become a traitor, and the people actually say that he recognizes "the people are the state" and the like.

He couldn't pick it out.

The nobles did not believe this, but no one could go to the place where the people were meeting and shout that they did not believe it.

However, the only way for Ji Sunluan to return to the aristocratic circle now is to drive a carriage to the place where the people are gathering and make a statement: I didn't say that, I don't agree with the words of the people for the state, I also oppose change, I have broken off relations with Tian Rang, and he did all these things in my name.

But can he do it?

Ji Sunluan smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't listen, you have to listen." ”

Tian Rang invited Ji Sunluan to the secret room and said, "You and my friend, I have a big profit to give you." This profit, invest ten gold, if it succeeds, the profit is 100 times. If you don't win, it's nothing more than a loss of gold, don't you do such a thing? ”

Ji Sunluan shook his head and said, "How can it be possible to invest ten gold, if you fail, you will only lose one gold?" ”

Tian Rang laughed and said: "In the past, Chong'er fled, passed through Wulu, and went to beg for hunger, and the farmer gave him a piece of soil and said let him gnaw on the soil." I'm afraid that this is the pen of the history book for the above, and I'm afraid that the people will say that you only deserve to eat......"

Ji Sunluan also clapped his hands and said: "You also know that when Jin Wengong escaped, he had to gnaw on the soil." I never wanted to follow Gongzi Bao's business, I didn't have that kind of ambition, I just wanted to be rich. But you want to deprive me of my wealth and let me be reduced to the situation of five deer eating land, where is this to invest ten gold and lose one gold? ”

Tian Rang shook his head and said: "Chong'er's income comes from the fief. What about your income? You and I have shares in trading companies such as Sishang, how much income does your fief bring you? If you flee and are still a vegetarian person, it will not be difficult to cook oil and flowers. Can you be the same as heavy ears? ”

"Jin Wen is a son, he left the fiefdom, and there is nothing."

"You left the fiefdom and had everything. Therefore, a gentleman has a country, a businessman has no country, the world is big, as long as there is money, where can it not go? ”

"That's why I say, if you fail, you'll lose a gold."

Merchants have no country, they can go anywhere. The feudal nobles need to have a country to maintain their income, which is a problem that Ji Sunluan has never thought about.

Wei Rang's words were like lightning piercing the night sky, making Ji Sunluan's originally completely resistant heart suddenly come alive.

Yes, when Jin Wengong fled, he was forced to gnaw on the soil, because his income came from the fiefdom, and there was no income without land.

But he has shares, business, and workshops, even if he is fleeing, isn't it a good drink?

This thought was only for a moment, and Ji Sunluan shook his head and said, "Even if I can only lose one gold, what benefit can I get?" I don't want to be a monarch at all. ”

"Besides, even if I become the king, I have already offended the nobles of the six kings, and I can only agree to the conditions of the people."

"If you listen to the conditions put forward by the Mo family for those common people, how can it be beneficial to me? What good will it do me to make the nobles pay taxes too? Such a monarch, don't do it. ”

"You have to make the law, you can't rely on your preferences, and you also need to obey the law when you kill people. The giant son of the Mo family can be regarded as the king of a country, but he still has to abide by the law of the Mo family, what profit does such a monarch have? What do you say I have gained? ”

Tian Rang smiled slightly and said, "Don't you know Teng Hou? ”

Speaking of Teng Hou, Ji Sunluan laughed angrily: "That's a joke!" How can there be such a marquis in the world? The politics of the country are all handed over to the Prime Minister and the Council, and they only have a thousand acres of land; , repair a palace room and apply for the consent of the council, but if the council does not agree, he can't fix it, he can only use his own money to repair it, that's a joke! ”

Marquis Teng, who was regarded as a puppet by the Mo family, may be the most aggrieved marquis in the world, which is really a joke. It's just that Teng Guo is small, and Teng Guo was destroyed by Yue before, and it is good to have such treatment when the country is restored, but it has not caused an uproar in the world.

After all, Teng is not very important in terms of topography.

However, Fei Guo is connected to the three countries of Vietnam, Qi and Lu, and things here cannot be as simple as Teng.

Seeing Ji Sunluan say this, Wei Rang whispered, "You are just seeking profit." If you can shout and obey the will of the people...... Isn't it possible for you to ask the people to agree to your contribution in order to monopolize some of the industries of the country? If you ask for a law, you can only be allowed to monopolize it, will the people not agree to it because of your kindness? ”

"The benefits of salt and iron, I'm afraid that the people will not agree. But what if it's something else? For example, those things that seem to be small profits, but once they are franchised, they can make a lot of profits? ”

"Or you can allow the mine to open and you can take a certain stake."

"It's not impossible to get people to pay a certain amount of taxes every year to support your family."

"In your opinion, this could be a coup d'état. But from the perspective of a businessman, this is just a transaction, a transaction with several times the profit. ”

"It's nothing good to be a monarch, but if you are just a son, can you get the rights of mining and monopolizing?"

"Besides...... Even if it doesn't change today, what about the future? Fei Guo is too close to Sishang, and the righteousness of the Mo family resounded in Sishang, and I think the matter of change will be done sooner or later. ”

"If you don't do it, the situation will change in the future, and maybe someone else will do it! So I said, it's a piece of wealth. ”

"I have arranged for carriages and horses, and also reserved dog caves in the city walls, and in case of failure, you can flee. There are still deposits in the gold bank in Sishang, what are you afraid of? You also have a stake in the trading house that runs Baiyue, what do you have to worry about? ”

This gold shop in Sishang was led by the Mo family and invested by many merchants to make a strange thing, which was specially used for profit. In recent years, with the development of handicrafts and the expansion of foreign trade, many merchants have deposited their money in it.

If nothing else, it's just because the rate of return on operating a deposit bank is higher than lending, and people are just looking for profits.

In the past few years, Ji Sunluan has made a lot of profits in it, and his identity is actually gradually changing, but he himself has not realized it.

With the secret help of the Mo family, he has changed from a fiefdom rentier aristocrat to a new class that can survive without a fief.

Seeking profit, taking profit, this is the word of the businessman, and it is also the righteousness that the Mo family has been talking about.

Ji Sunluan knew that Wei Rang had always done things safely, and after thinking about it, he was actually not unmoved.

It does sound like a hundredfold investment, the Mo family has also shown enough strength in recent years, and the two major battles of the water and the most, losing Qi and Yue in a row, can already compete with the princes of the world, Ji Sunluan is not worried that his wealth will come to naught.

It's just that he is thinking about it with a habitual mind, for fear of getting involved in it and dying, so he panics.

Now that Wei Rangyi said it, Ji Sunluan also thought that if he really did it, he would flee to Sishang, but he was afraid that the monarch would have no choice.

Wei Rang secretly observed Ji Sunluan's expression, and when he saw Ji Sunluan's eyes moving, he was obviously shaken, and he was secretly happy in his heart, and hit the railroad while it was hot: "Your ancestor is Ji Chengzi, don't you know about your father?" If Ju Guo didn't hand over Qing's father back then, what would happen to Qing's father? Lu is big and Ju is small, and Qing's father has to die. If Ju is big and Lu is small, will Qing's father die? ”

"Since you are doing business with me for profit, don't you know about Tao Zhugong? Wen died in the bird's bow and hidden, but Fan Li gave ten thousand gold, why should he have a fief? How is it different from a feudal king? You don't have Tao Zhu's talent, but you have a different identity, which is the biggest capital, you can use this identity to make up for Tao Zhu's lack of business ability. ”

It is Qing's father who is not dead, Ji Sunluan's ancestor is only the younger brother of Qing's father, Qing's father fled to Ju after the failed coup, but due to the diplomatic pressure of Qi and Lu, he had to be extradited back to China, committing suicide on the way.

Wei Rang has made the words of the temptation very clear, once the coup fails, flee to Sishang. Sishang has been fighting with Chu in recent years, and the relationship with Zhao is good, and the people of Qin just passed through Sishang a few days ago to cooperate with the Mo family......

Wei Rang means that when Qing's father was forced to hand over by the political pressure of the State of Ju, but now the State of Fei is not the State of Lu, and the State of Sishang is not the State of Ju.

You don't have any ambitions, and you don't have the talent of Tao Zhugong when you are in business. Tao Zhugong fled from the Yue Kingdom, and the rest of the ability is zero, but the family is Tao Zhugong, so he can pay three thousand gold.

You don't have the talent of Tao Zhugong, but you have the identity of a palace, if you don't take this opportunity to make up for the lack of talent with your identity, what are you waiting for?

You don't need it now, but when you want to use it in the future, where will it be your turn?

Ji Sunluan thought about it, and finally got to the point, and asked, "But the current situation, has it really reached this level?" ”

Wei Rang said with a smile: "If it weren't for the Martial King in the past, Shang Xuan might not have perished. Could it be that civil and military affairs should be done only after the situation in the world has been settled? If that is the case, how can Tang Wu be a revolutionary in the world? ”

"The current situation in the country is an autumn wasteland. If there is no flame, will it burn even if it is dry? But as long as there is a trace of spark, it may burn. ”

"Wei Ren expelled the monarch, isn't it that the fire has come, and those pro-Jin nobles have lit the fire?"

"The Song people killed the monarch, isn't it that the fire has arrived, and the prince of the Song Kingdom is fanning the flames behind?"

"Zheng people burned the monarch to death, isn't it that the fire has arrived, and Zheng Guo's son is using flint to make fire?"

"The Qi people hanged the monarch, isn't it time for the fire to come, and the son of the Qi country has won the support of everyone when he leads the troops to return outside?"

"You can be a fire-starter now, you can't miss this opportunity. If the people's change is successful, how can you benefit if you don't have the size of the work? The people think that you are the same as those nobles, and will not deprive you of your benefits? ”

"If the anger of the people grows, how do you know that there will be no one like you who will speak out in support of the people? After all, no one directly says that they oppose public opinion now, right? ”

"So I said, now such an opportunity ...... It's hard to find for you. ”

"The merit of righteousness can gain the support of the people, and you can benefit."

"If you fail, you can flee to Sishang Chubang, you have money and business, and you can't do any damage."

"So, such a fortune is placed in front of you, and you are afraid of failure. It's like a businessman who thinks he might lose money and doesn't dare to do it often; Those who are farmers are afraid of natural disasters and do not dare to harvest crops; As a craftsman, they are afraid that they will not be able to sell it, so they dare not make utensils...... You can't make a profit! ”

After thinking about it, Ji Sunluan thanked him and said, "That's the truth, you have convinced me, you are a real friend." Then, please protect my wife and family, and leave my money and private soldiers to you to arrange, and please hold my life in your hands. You are a man who walks in the righteousness of a friend. ”

After saying goodbye, Wei Rang said: "In this case, please don't leave, just wait in my house, and I will send someone to pick up your family and arrange for escape in advance." If the matter fails, he will go abroad to make peace. If it works, take it back. ”
