During the Warring States period, the text was recorded in bamboo slips, and the maps were drawn in parchment scrolls. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the third floor can have a map of such a scale, mainly spread the cloth cloth throughout the hall. Commoners could only use linen, while royalty and nobility could use cloth.

The Ba family is the granary of the Qin State, and Ba Qingqing and Yingji are even more closely related, and the aristocracy is naturally indispensable. But if you can put the map on the cloth, you can imagine how amazing the wealth of the Ba family is.

"The general trend of the world is self-unified. The princes have been divided for a long time, disobeying the king and disobeying orders, and they all want to be the biggest overlord in the world. In front of them, in addition to the countries themselves, there was also the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty. Ba Qing recounted eloquently.

The Zhou Dynasty replaced the Shang Dynasty, and in the eight hundred years of Zhou Tianzi, too many things happened. King Jiwu, the founder of the Zhou Dynasty, defeated the Shang Dynasty in a battle of Muye, ending the rule of the Shang Dynasty.

Prime Minister Jiang Ziya listed the princes and nobles, and divided the princes in various places, but did not form a unified central transfer, resulting in the Zhou royal family being inferior from generation to generation. During the reign of King Li of Zhou, the reform failed, and there was a rebellion of the countrymen, and King Li fled from Hojing.

It was also at this time that 841 B.C. was the beginning year of the Chinese chronicles, and the previous historical events lost their specific time coordinates. The invasion of the nomads broke through Hojing, resulting in the loss of a large number of classic records. After hundreds of years of history, too many precious traces have been lost.

The Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were ruled together, forming a watershed between the strength and decline of the Zhou Dynasty. King Zhou You abolished his grandson and set up a house, laughed for Bo Bao, and played the princes with the beacon fire, causing the princes everywhere to listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, and gradually became stronger. After arriving in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the nations became even bigger, and the authority of Zhou Tianzi gradually declined.

Ba Qingqing said: "The fall of the Zhou family is irreparable, and among the seven countries, no matter which one unifies the Central Plains, the Zhou family will be destroyed." And what I am optimistic about is naturally the Qin State. My Great Qin has four barriers, Bashu granary, many soldiers and generals, and fights with the Xiongnu, Rong and other barbarian peoples all the year round, and the Qin people are the country that is not afraid of war. ”

"Gongzi's entry into Qin represents Leng Yue and Ghost Valley, we are all optimistic about Qin, we have common interests, and we should be united."

Ying Zheng asked: "Senior Ba, what does the Ba family want?" ”

Directly to the core problem, the Ba family is too rich, and he must get their support. The premise is that you have to tell me what you want, as long as you get the topic out of the way, you can cooperate better in the future.

Ba Qingqing said seriously: "The Ba family doesn't want anything, they just want to destroy the Zhou room and get back the Jiuding that belongs to us." Among the nations, only Qin could do it. ”

Looking at the world, South Korea has the most awkward geographical location, and its own strength is weak and unable to expand. The State of Zhao has just been defeated by the State of Qin, and the population has dropped dramatically, so it is very good to be a country that defends the city. There were contradictions between the monarchs and ministers within the Wei state, and the king of Wei and the king of Xinling were divided into two factions, and it was difficult to unify the policies. The monarchs of Yan, Chu, and Qi are not bold enough, and if there is no external stimulation, it is difficult to take the initiative to expand their territory.

Among these countries, only Qin is in a suitable position, which can be attacked and retreated. The Qin people are warlike, and the famous generals are like clouds, as long as they survive this decade, they should have the potential to unify the Central Plains in the future. People with lofty ideals have seen this, but because Yingji is old and a new monarch has not been produced, they dare not stand in line in advance.

Keba Qingqing is not afraid, no matter who the next King of Qin is, he must get the support of the Bashuba family in order to sit firmly. Because of her close relationship with Yingji, the new monarch will curry favor with her, so that she can get everyone's support in terms of national policy.

What's more, because Ba Qingqing and Mrs. Huayang are friendly, there are too many characters that can be influenced, whether it is Yingzi Chu or Yingjie, if you want to sit in that position, without the support of the Ba family, it will not last long.

In private, Lü Buwei often travels back and forth between Bashu and Xianyang, and he himself is a businessman, so he can get the support of the Ba family. But Ba Qingqing didn't take the initiative to stand in line, she was still waiting, as long as Yingji didn't speak, she wouldn't stand in line casually.

Yingzhu knows Ba Qingqing very well, and he is happy to see this, anyway, they are all his own sons, and the Ba family only waits for the result and does not look at the process, which is already good. In case the Ba family also participates in the battle for succession, Yingzhu really has no choice.

The intelligence system of the Ba family has always occupied the center of the Qin royal family, and the identity of the son of Leng Yue cannot be guessed by others, but Ba Qingqing can analyze it. Even if she hadn't figured out the relationship yet, in the near future, Lu Buwei would definitely tell her. The reason is very simple, if Ying Zichu wants to sit firmly in that position, he must get the support of the Ba family. As long as Lü Buwei reveals this news, the Ba family will definitely be able to influence the Qin royal family.

Ying Zheng didn't know how much Ba Qingqing knew, and he was not familiar with the head of the Ba family, so he was very cautious when he spoke and asked questions.

Ba Qingqing continued: "Shinong Industry and Commerce, the status of the merchant is the worst, please tell me, if you take the position one day, can you improve the status of the merchant?" I am not speaking for you for the Ba family, but speaking to you on behalf of the merchants of the whole world. ”

Several people in the hall did not speak, and if they wanted to improve the status of the merchants, they would definitely not be able to do it in a short time. After all, the influence of the Zhou Dynasty was too great, and in all countries, merchants were low, and their social status was not even as good as that of the common people. And the question raised by Ba Qingqing can be said to be very harsh, Leng Yue Gongzi is not from Qin, but he still said such things.

Qingfeng didn't understand, but Gai Nie knew some, but he didn't know the core identity of Leng Yue Gongzi. It's just that the family of Guigu said that Leng Yue Gongzi represents the two families and has the identity of the Qin people, no matter how specific it is, no one told him.

After pondering for a moment, Ying Zheng said cautiously: "If you want to change the status of a businessman, it will take at least twenty years of hard work, and nowadays, it is basically impossible. The interests of the aristocracy must be guaranteed, and in the minds of each family, there are too many people who reject the merchants, and they can only try to do it slowly, and they cannot achieve it quickly. ”

"It's not impossible, but the premise is that I can smoothly ascend to the position and master my own power. Secondly, if the Qin State can really unify the world, abolish the system of feudal vassals, and implement administrative and commercial policies, the resistance will be the least. Thirdly, it is necessary to grasp the timing and target the sore spots of the nobles and each family before it can be implemented. ”

"For now, there's nothing you can do. In ten years, the Qin State could only recuperate and recuperate, and was unable to wage large-scale wars against various countries, and no one dared to say whether the countries would unite to attack Qin again. Under these conditions, whoever dares to promote the status of the business will surely become the target of public criticism. ”

Ba Qingqing nodded and said, "Does the prince have the full support of the old man, that is, the king of Qin?" It doesn't hurt to tell me, Qingfeng is a family member, and he is a friend of my Ba family, and he won't say a word. ”

Several people nodded, the lover and the Ba family have been friends for a hundred years, and the two families have cooperated too much, and it is impossible to do something that harms the two families. Gai Nie is not even more necessary, the Ghost Valley and the Cold Moon are in the same breath, one is prosperous and the other is lost.

Ying Zheng knew deeply that he had to reveal some useful information, and Ba's predecessors were just guessing, and he definitely didn't know the specific core content. If you want to get the support of the Ba family, you must give her a reassuring pill in order to get the unreserved support of the Ba family.

"The King of Qin and I, Leng Yue, have reached an agreement, Leng Yue will train the guards of the Qin royal family, give us Yongcheng, and will have this son to organize an army of 50,000 people. This army, as long as it does not do anything that endangers the Qin State, all orders are only issued by Ben Gongzi alone. ”

Qing Feng gasped when he heard this, King Qin's capital was too big, Leng Yue was not from Qin, why did he dare to do this? Ba Qing was very happy to hear it, and many things did not need to be pointed out to know what the old man meant.

This Leng Yue Gongzi is the prince of Yingzheng, if it is not the Ying family, how can he hold such a big power?

Ba Qingqing said happily: "It's enough to have this, in the future, the son will cooperate closely with my Ba family, lack of money and people, as long as you say a word, my Ba family can complete it for you." As long as you don't belittle the status of businessmen, when you take up the position in the future, the policy will tilt even a little bit towards our businessmen, and we will be satisfied. ”

"It's so easy for us to take advantage of opportunities. Merchants are not profitable, and everyone in the world says that businessmen are philistines, and we all know that businessmen are the smartest and will not buy and sell at a loss. ”

"As long as the prince is on the throne, the Ba family can give everything for you, and in order to stabilize your position, you can provide free food and money to build the Great Wall over there. I guess no one will object to this! As long as the Great Wall is built, the status of merchants will not be able to improve if they want to. ”

Ying Zheng was stunned, building the Great Wall is not a small project, it will take several generations of hard work and countless laborers to succeed. The money and food involved in this is a huge astronomical amount, and no monarch dares to complete it.

However, the nomads were too powerful, and the threat of the Xiongnu and Rong endangered the border defenses of Qin, Zhao and Yan from time to time, and the Great Wall had to be repaired. But no country dares to repair completely, only in key areas, and cannot connect the city. It's not that everyone doesn't want to repair it, but there is no money, and it may not be finished yet, and the treasury will be empty.

This head of the Ba family is really courageous, as long as she says to King Qin, let Yingzheng take over, she can build the Great Wall for you for free, whether the King of Qin wants to agree or not, he can't find a reason to refuse. This temptation is so great that all the nobles will not object, if the Ba family can really do this, improve the status of merchants, in the face of actual interests, they will nod.

"Of course, there is still a prerequisite for this." Ba Qingqing smiled and said: "The son must be on the top, I can't believe the others, after all, the old man's vision is higher than mine, but you are still some time away from the top." If the future son can't get on the throne, in case someone else says one thing to his face and does another behind his back, then I will become a sinner of the business. ”

Ying Zheng immediately said: "As long as I get the support of the Ba family, I will try my best to sit in that position." Senior Ba, you don't have to worry within the Qin State, my status has been unanimously recognized by the Qin royal family, and it is not something that a few people can control. ”

"The only flaw is that I am too young, and I have to give me enough time. Only when I was given time could I develop my strength, open a mansion in Yongcheng, attract customers, and train soldiers. ”

Qing Feng was surprised and couldn't speak, Gai Nie got up and said seriously: "What Childe said is true?" Did King Qin really give you so much power? ”

Ying Zheng nodded affirmatively and said: "Not only that, but the King of Qin also supports me with a large amount of gold, as long as the treasury is surplus, I can take it for my use." But I also have to save money, after all, Zheng Guoqu is also a big project, and I have to find some ways to make money in other aspects. ”
