After that, the cheers of the people and the shouts of the soldiers told Jushou one thing, that is, Liu Bei was really popular among the people in Mount Tai, and this was a serious threat to Yuan Shao's hegemony.
"Xuan Degong is serious. Zizhong, please pay. I can't stand it anymore." Chen Xi turned to Mi Zhu and said.
"It's only hundreds of millions of dollars, and it's all taken care of by my Mi family." Mi Zhu burst into tears of gratitude when she heard Liu Bei say in front of everyone, "I would like to thank the Zhen family and the Mi family for their financial and food support." The most important thing a family needs at the beginning is fame.
, and spending a small amount of money to support education, how much reputation can you gain?
Scholars are the most precious people in the world, and scholars are also the people who cherish feathers the most in the world. The Mi family only needs to pay for it for five years. When the first generation of students comes out, even if the Mi family starts off as a businessman, it will not last long.
No one will look at the Mi family with contempt, because once the Mi family is hacked, countless students will stand up to defend the Mi family. It doesn't matter whether you are a businessman or not, what matters is benevolence and righteousness!
But when she thought about the Zhen family ahead of her, Mi Zhu was a little confused as to whether she had invested a little less money than the Zhen family. Why did the Zhen family show up for everything? They set rules, chamber of commerce, and now spend money to make things happen.
How come the Zhen family is involved in education?
Because of this, when Chen Xi asked Mi Zhu this question with a smile, Mi Zhu said nothing and patted his chest and promised that he would be able to take care of the entire academy in Taishan, Qingzhou by himself. How much reputation would this have to gain?
Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Zizhong has some things that are not a good thing to be alone. Back then, the Chen family incident led to the tragedy of businessmen all over the world. Nowadays, wealthy businessmen may be accused of evil intentions if they do a little good deed. If they don't do it, they will be accused of evil deeds.
It's a matter of being rich but not benevolent, and Zi Zhong should be very clear about the hardships involved."
Mi Zhu was stunned, and his back shirt was soaked with cold sweat in an instant. He only saw that the day when the Mi family became a famous family was in sight, but he did not think about the danger behind it. There is a reason why businessmen are rejected from top to bottom in this era. Spring and Autumn Period
The government did not exclude merchants. It was during the Warring States Period that merchants really started to be punished. Various laws restricting merchants also began at that time.
The reason is that the ancestors of the Chen family played too much and made all the merchants stupid. Big fights came out. Small fights came in. After a few generations, they bought the hearts of the people of Qi and then the country of Qi. This way
It was a legitimate and reasonable transaction. In the end, King Zhou An could only hold his nose and admit that Tian He was the Marquis of Qi.
After this incident, businessmen were all unlucky, and all wealthy businessmen were targeted. From time to time, they would cut grass like grass. Because no matter which country, this kind of thing is deeply abhorred.
In short, from then on, merchants in the feudal era who did good deeds without reporting them would basically be labeled as having evil intentions. Because of this, there are many records in which the roads in the countryside were broken, and the bridges were broken and they went to the merchants. The government said that a certain merchant should pay for repairs, but that's not the case.
In order to blackmail businessmen, it is purely to give them face. Of course, there are also cases of blackmail. But allowing you to cultivate is actually giving you face...
"Thank you Zichuan for the suggestion." Mi Zhu bowed and said.
"No, no, no, for Duke Xuande's foundation, your money is still very important, and with the Zhen family blocking you, nothing will happen to you." Chen Xi said nonchalantly. He dared to let Liu Bei say this, and he was not afraid of Ju Shu.
I heard that there would be some dissatisfaction with the Zhen family, because Jushou had already figured out what happened last time, and the Zhen family spent 2 billion to buy Ping An.
As for why other families believe that the Zhen family paid two billion instead of making peace with Qingzhou, the main reason is that Luoshui Trading Company, second only to the five wealthy merchants, directly revealed that it belongs to the Zhen family's property. This company often provides large loans and
It is inevitable that the trading company that offsets the price has a reserve fund of 2 billion yuan. Well, this is Zhen Mi's dowry...
Jushu also knew this, so he never thought that the Zhen family and Liu Bei would make peace. As for the Zhen family's appearance in Fenggao now, he didn't see all the businessmen in the world appearing in Fenggao. For businessmen, as long as they can make money, let alone nothing.
Even if there is a deadly feud, the interests can be great enough to suppress it. However, Jushuo doesn't think that there is any kind of interest that can suppress what he did to Qingzhou before. That is not a small amount of money.
"I'm also a little anxious." Mi Zhu said with a wry smile, "Maybe Zichuan doesn't understand my thoughts."
"The glory of the family, the hope of shining the lintel, and the blessings of future generations are worth fighting for in a lifetime." Chen Xi said without looking back.
"Zichuan, you really know everything!" Mi Zhu said with a smile. In his opinion, Chen Xi, who was born in a noble family, would not notice this ordinary life that he has been enjoying.
"Don't worry, Zizhong. You won't lose the money you spent. As for what my lord just said, from now on, if your family sells things in Taishan and Qingzhou, if others sell the same thing as you, even if your price is slightly higher.
, the people of Taishan will recognize your stuff, and when the news of supporting the establishment of education spreads, your shop's business will be even more prosperous." Chen Xi glanced at Mi Zhu and then turned around and said calmly.
"What?" In this era without advertising, Mi Zhu, who relies on the smell of wine to survive in alleys, simply doesn't understand the importance of spreading the word.
"That is to say, don't you envy Zilong that someone will give him something when he walks? You will do the same in the future, as long as they know that you are Mi Zizhong." Chen Xi stopped turning his head and just stared at Liu Bei and said silently.
"General Zhao is such a joy in life." Mi Zhu said with obvious envy. Whenever he saw Zhao Yun walking on the road, beauties would throw themselves into his arms. No one would charge for shopping, and others would force him to do so.
This is probably the feeling. People in this era are still very simple.
"You can do it too. Zilong has given them the soil for survival, and you have given them hope for development. I will burn something for you in two days, and you can post it on your home club. Business will get better."
Chen Xi smiled and said.
"Thank you very much," Mi Zhu said with a bow.
Zhuge Jin looked at Fazheng, who was standing in the first row under Liu Bei, "I'm afraid that boy is a little younger than me. He is now the Prime Minister of Qi. Taishan is really a hero regardless of his age."
"Fa Xiaozhi." Zhuge Liang recited this name silently.
"Chen Zichuan is only about the same age as me. He is indeed a genius. Kong Ming, my brother has no hope of surpassing him. I, the Zhuge family, rely on you as the backbone." Zhuge Jinlang said with a smile, "Kong Ming, I
Let me ask you one last time, are you really not going back to Xuzhou?"
"I plan to visit Chen Zichuan. I don't plan to go back to Xuzhou. If my uncle asks, please tell him, 'Kong Ming has found someone who has the same goals as him, and he doesn't want to wait for the so-called opportunity anymore.'" Zhuge Liang said without turning his head.
, "But brother, you really don't want to stay with Mr. Xuande. His dream contains your ideal."
"Kong Ming, we are an aristocratic family. If you choose freedom, then someone must bear the responsibility. If both of us pursue our own freedom, then who should bear the responsibility of the Zhuge family? The Zhuge family has been in decline for too long.
, it is possible for our generation to rise again, the family will not allow the best of us to enter a force, they have invested too much in us, the family has the rules of the family." Zhuge Jin patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you very much." Zhuge Liang looked at his brother Zhuge Jin and said.
"Next time we meet, don't abandon public service for personal reasons. We are the Zhuge family." Zhuge Jin said calmly, looking back at Liu Bei, "He will be a good lord, but it's a pity that he is not suitable for me. He is not suitable for me."
Zhuge Jin slowly packed his things, leaving Zhuge Liang alone here, and he would be the one to bear the blame of the Zhuge family. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
