In an elegant room, faint human voices could be heard at this time.
This is the same house that previously hosted Sun Ce and his party. Although Wang Zheng has not lived in it for even a moment, it has already become a property in his name.
In fact, speaking of it, today's Kaiyang is just a grass and a tree, so how can there be someone who is not named Wang?
However, since Mi Fang has such discernment and good intentions, you are generous and I am open-minded. Since Mi Fang has not left yet, Wang Zheng has still left them to live in these few days.
He chose to take the initiative to visit today because Mi Heng reminded him.
The Mi family is far more important to him than imagined.
Originally, the two sides were able to establish a line because last year when Wang Zheng ransacked his house in Qingzhou, he had countless shady property that needed to be cleared away in exchange for rice, war horses, weapons and other items that were more practical for the Heavenly Army.
.
So after Mi Ling spread the word, he and Mi Zhu hit it off immediately.
But since setting foot in Xuzhou, although there are still some short-sighted noble families seeking death, the number is not large after all, so this business is of little benefit.
As a result, neither Wang Zheng nor the Mi family paid much attention to it.
Of course, it’s better to do it raw than to do it maturely.
Until now, the cooperation has continued, but it is basically a serious business. It is nothing more than Wang Zheng paying and the other party delivering the goods.
The two of them had communicated before that night when they entertained Sun Ce, and both parties agreed that the deal could go ahead.
Therefore, Mi Fang was a little surprised and confused about Wang Zheng's visit today.
Although she still looks down on Wang Zheng's background, the commotion this young man has caused in the past two years has been quite big. Mi Fang has watched his behavior and knows that he is not an ordinary person. Now, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he can be said to have everything on his plate.
, suddenly came to chat with his fellow merchants, he must have some other agenda.
However, not long after the banquet was over, Mi Fang discovered for the first time that Wang Zheng was not very old, but his conversation was interesting and quite appetizing.
No way, Wang Zheng did not do any business in another era. He was just a 996 office worker. But he lived in an era of information explosion. Even people who were incapable of doing business would know it as long as they had access to the Internet.
Some quite novel business ideas.
As the two of them chatted, Wang Zheng secretly activated his talent for persuasion, and coupled with the jokes from his previous life, they were chatting happily. Not long after, under Wang Zheng's initiative, the two of them even started calling each other.
In the Han Dynasty, calling each other by cousin names in private is only possible for people who are very close to each other.
"Brother Yu Kou really brought me into sexual contact today." Mi Fang clapped her hands and laughed, with the wrinkles on her forehead showing a happy arc: "There is no dick here, come quickly! Seriously.
Wonderful!"
A short story mentioned by Wang Zheng just now was originally a very famous marketing case of "selling shoes on an isolated island" in later generations.
A story points out countless mysteries, whether it is market catering and development, qualitative red oceans and blue oceans, or core positioning in strategy. Even people from China who are not engaged in marketing or business have probably heard of it.
"This friend of yours is indeed quite intelligent. I don't know where he is from. How about his name?"
"Uh..." Wang Zheng laughed twice, and could only make a random joke: "I am also from Qingzhou, my name is taboo, but Hezheng is from the same family, and my only name is Luo."
"Wang Luo?" Mi Fang nodded, and then said: "Brother Yu Kou, I'm sorry to be blunt, but I have never heard of this person's name. It seems that his business is not big."
"This is normal. This friend of yours is obviously good at running a business, but he is a bit eccentric. If you want to become a big businessman and a celebrity, you should uphold the two words of stability and virtue."
If you, a native of Han Dynasty, knew what the "Internet" was, you would be surprised.
"Brother Zifang is absolutely right. In fact, this businessman's behavior is the same as running a country and caring for the people. He must not be eager for quick success and take safety as the foundation." Wang Zheng said with a smile: "But the story of "nothing here" is actually the same as that of Lu Buwei, a great businessman in the past.
"A rare thing can live in" comes from different paths but it is nothing more than the desire to make big profits. Sometimes you not only have to be willing to take big risks, but you also have to take some eccentric directions."
"It is said that a horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without windfall."
"No one can be rich without windfall..." Mi Fang's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she stroked her short beard and said, "This is the first time I have heard this. Well, it does make some sense."
In fact, at this time he had understood the implication of Wang Zheng's words.
Wang Zheng now compares him and the Yellow Turban forces under his command to an isolated island where no one wears shoes, and those noble gentry who are not optimistic about his future, like the sighing merchants, feel that there is no investment in him
Necessary, and there is no room for buying and selling.
As for the Mi family, are they going to be businessmen with a keen eye for discerning pearls?
Mi Fang was also hesitant.
First of all, neither he nor his eldest brother Mi Zhu wanted the Mi family to continue to be just a family known for its merchants. Everyone could see that the Han Dynasty was about to run out of power, and there might be a possibility of a change of dynasty in the future.
This situation is a great suffering for ordinary people. As the saying goes, "I would rather be a peace dog than a person in troubled times."
But in the eyes of wealthy gentry families like the Mi family, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
If you choose the right person, once you support Longting, the Mi family will be able to soar thousands of miles and leap over the dragon's gate, raising the influence and reputation of the entire family to several levels, and even becoming a top family member in the world such as Yuan Shu from Runan.
Then could Wang Zheng be the real dragon?
Mi Fang has been in Kaiyang for a long time, and he has some understanding of him and the Tianjun. Asking himself, he admits that the opponent's foundation is now gradually stable, and he has become a powerful leader, far from being comparable to other yellow scarf thieves. But at this time, it is
There is a chance to win, but it's too early to tell.
Of course, on the other hand, if Wang Zheng has obvious signs of becoming the world's leader and ascending to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it may be too late for the Mi family to invest.
Mi Fang was a little hesitant. The current relationship between the Mi family and Wang Zheng could only be described as cooperation, not investment. Wang Zheng's coming here today was to actively seek for the Mi family to place a heavy bet on him.
When he was taking the exam, Wang Zheng was silent and just sat cross-legged.
This can be regarded as an opportunity he gave Mi.
Originally, the Mi family was just a fat piglet in his eyes. Whenever they unified Xuzhou, they would kill pigs to celebrate the New Year. However, after hearing Mi Heng's analysis, Wang Zheng also had new ideas.
It is true that famous families are the enemies he must face in the future. Not to mention that most aristocratic families look down on Wang Zhen, who was born in the Yellow Turban. Even if they like him, Wang Zheng has no interest in establishing another dynasty similar to the Eastern Han Dynasty or the Jin Dynasty.
If you have reached the highest position and still have to tie your hands and feet and cannot make decisions arbitrarily, then the emperor might as well not do it.
But if you rely entirely on your own efforts, even if there is systematic help, it will be really difficult. What's more, class differentiation will still exist in the future of the Celestial Empire, let alone today's era?
Even if Wang Zheng establishes a new dynasty, it will inevitably bring about a new group of ruling classes. Therefore, in his opinion, small and medium-sized noble families such as the Mi family, who are rich but not powerful and have low status, are actually candidates for selection.
It can not only help yourself, but also avoid the hidden danger of catastrophe in the future.
Of course, if Mr. Mi rejects his kindness, he can only continue to sharpen the butcher's knife.
While he was thinking, Mi Fang finally spoke.
He looked at Wang Zheng with some anxiety and said in a deep voice: "General Tiangong, this matter is of great importance and it is really difficult for a certain person to decide. Can I be allowed to return to the East China Sea to discuss it with my brother first?"
"Yes." Wang Zheng nodded.
It's good that the other party didn't reject it directly, or he considered it acceptable.
"Thank you, General." Seeing that Wang Zheng didn't change his face immediately, Mi Fang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. However, she saw Wang Zheng tapping the table with his fingers with a smile, and said in a joking way: "Brother Zifang, Zheng had already mentioned this when he came to visit.
, at this time of casual conversation, when we are talking about drinking, drinking, romance, and sorrow, there is only a difference between the host and the guest, so why should we talk about official positions, which makes this artistic conception tainted with vulgarity."
"Drink three cups full and take a small punishment."
Mi Fang was startled, then laughed loudly: "That's right, that's right, what the wise brother Yu Kou said is exactly what he said, but he called me wrong again."
After drinking, he said with emotion: "I also frankly told you that neither I nor my brother really want the family to be just among the merchants anymore. Alas, it would be like a very rich man like Tao Zhugong, who uses scheming skills."
, become extremely rich, assist the King of Yue, and become famous, why don’t you have to protect yourself wisely and retire to Taihu Lake?”
Judging from his dark complexion, it seems that Wang Zheng opened the skylight and spoke openly today, which aroused his heartache.
During the Wenjing period, Chao Cuo, the imperial censor, tried his best to fill the national treasury with the policy of "valuing millet". All merchants who donated grain to the court could obtain a title and atone for their serious crimes. From then on, the status of merchants gradually increased, and even reached the level of Emperor Ling, who built palaces.
In the middle market, he also dressed up as a merchant and had a great time. The merchant's body had already returned to the height of the former Qin Dynasty.
However, since Guangwu reestablished the Han court, the status of merchants has been visibly declining.
Now in today's troubled times, as the saying goes, the small businessmen are in the city, and the big businessmen are in the dynasty. The Mi family has more than 100 million in wealth and is rich. Of course, they also want to do like the sages and find a wise master, so that they can both survive and survive.
Achieve a great career.
The original head of the Mi family, Mi Zhu, became the governor of Xuzhou, Tao Qian, in order to stabilize his moral character and majesty. He might not have had this idea. Although Xuzhou was a place of four wars, the people were martial and the resources were rich. If they met a powerful lord, they would work hard to strengthen themselves.
, is a very suitable foundation for hegemony.
Although Tao Qian is old, he still has two sons.
However, he was defeated by Cao Cao first. Not only did he lose the popular support of Xuzhou and his family's prestige, but his two sons, according to Mi Zhu's observation, were no more than sufficient resources to maintain success.
Xuzhou is not a place like Yizhou that has natural dangers and is isolated in the southwest. Even if it is maintained, it can enjoy peace for decades. Without heroes like Henkel who have both the ambition to expand and the ability to expand the territory, Xuzhou would not be able to sit there.
In a place like Xuzhou, if you just follow the rules, you can only sit back and wait for death.
This is why the royal government has invaded the territory of Xuzhou, and the Mi family is still disconnected from the lotus root. This is not what they want, but they really dare not.
The Mi family was not optimistic about Tao Qian's future, so they did not dare to offend any of the princes who had strong military support and self-respect.
And people like Wang Zheng who were born into thieves and bandits may be even less polite. Once they turn against each other, no matter how rich they are, they will only be their knives and slaves, and I will be their flesh and blood.
The eldest brother Mi Zhu has always traveled around the world, and he also secretly had the idea in his heart that he was like the Lu family of Qin in the past, looking for rare things to live in.
However, since ancient times, powerful overlords have always followed wolves and eagles, sharing hardships but not shared prosperity. With Wang Zheng's current ability, Mi Fang already feels that there is some chance. But what is his temperament and whether we can share wealth and honor, we have to take a closer look.
If his temperament and ability are both good, Mi Fang feels that Wang Zheng at this time is qualified for Mi's investment.
After all, the princes in the world don't actually have many choices. For example, the powerful princes such as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the Mi family likes him, and even wants to invest in it. The problem is, people don't like him, let alone give him a chance.
.
...
After the serious business was settled, Mi Fang apologized soon after and went to the trading house to deal with some trivial matters. After all, he would return to the East China Sea tomorrow.
After having half a day's leisure, and seeing the bright spring day, Wang Zheng was not in a hurry to return to the county government.
Speaking of which, he is now the owner of this mansion, but he has not even seen the full picture.
After passing through the long verandah covered with branches and vines, Wang Zheng came to a garden.
The advantage of being biased is that although the location of this house is poor, it has a larger backyard than the county government in a prefectural city like Kaiyang.
Rich people really enjoy it.
While sighing at the luxury represented by tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle, Wang Zheng walked along the suspension bridge and enjoyed the greenery everywhere.
But at some point it will stop.
It was in the south, where a mountain spring gushed out from a broken rock on one side of the mountain wall, suddenly forming a waterfall, pond and stream in this world that was as beautiful as a fairyland on earth.
Beside the pool, a girl was sitting barefoot on the edge of the pool, tapping the water with her toes.
The sun was shining slantingly, and golden ripples appeared on the water. Those colorful freshwater fish, which had been raised fat and strong by the servant boys, did not seem to be afraid of the approach of humans, and followed the girl's toes swimming up and down, as if
I want to know if that white and slender thing is food.
The girl stuck out her pink tongue and giggled.
A shallow laugh, as clear and clear as water shaking bamboo.
Occasionally, there are fish jumping out of the water and splashing water, which wets the girl's temples and forehead, and her face is white, smooth and translucent. It is really a jade pearl, a flower condensing in the morning dew.
Wang Zheng was suddenly stunned on the spot.
It's not that he has never seen beautiful women before, but this scene is too dreamy, and the girl's beauty is even more innocent, which makes him, who has long been accustomed to killing and blood, suddenly feel a little unreal.
Perhaps sensing Wang Zheng's gaze, the girl turned her head and looked over. When she saw it was a stranger, she uttered an ouch and immediately stopped her smile.
She raised her face, as if she wanted to show a fierce look, but she just bit her lip and puffed her cheeks, making her palm-sized face even more cute and charming, but without any dignity at all.
Just when Wang Zheng was stunned, some slender figures with the fragrance of rouge came over, tilted their heads, stared at him back and forth, clapped their hands and asked.
"Hello!"
"Are you new? Why have I never seen you before?"
The voice was so young and crisp that Wang Zheng finally came to his senses and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Oh, it turns out she is a loli."
The girl's figure is quite mature. If you don't listen to her voice, you really can't tell her true age.
Of course...in fact, the sound may not be reliable.
"Loli?" The girl's two buns trembled and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Uh..." Wang Zheng laughed dryly and said nonsensically: "Radix is also a vine."
"It is said that there are vines in the wild and the dew is shining. There is a beautiful person who is clear and graceful. This is meant to compliment you." As he said this, he thought to himself.
Although this little girl is pretty, she may not be worthy of the double-sworded woman Zhao County met that day.
Why did it keep me in a daze for so long?
Is it because you are born with high charisma?
"Qingyang Wanxiu..." After the girl heard this, she nodded without reservation: "It is indeed very suitable for me."
Halfway through his words, his pretty nose suddenly wrinkled and he stared directly over: "That's not right!"
