When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

chapter 67
When Mingzhu was acting as a demon, Lu Buwei was also busy. Since turning fifty, Lu Buwei, who has paid more and more attention to health preservation, has rarely been busy with one thing all night, but what Yingzheng gave him is true. His shock was too great, so he stayed up all night for two consecutive nights and finally read the bamboo slips written by Ying Zhengjiao and him from beginning to end.

As the last character fell into his eyes, he knew that everything Ying Zheng said was true.

Although he already knew that Ying Zheng couldn't just say something, but when Lu Buwei found out the answer, it still had a huge impact on him.

Can history books still be used like this?
On the way to Xianyang Palace, Lu Buwei recalled what he had seen in the past three days, and still had an unbelievable feeling.

At the same time, in his mind, a plan is slowly forming. If next year is really the year of the locust plague, then Qin, which has already started preparations this year, can preserve its strength to the maximum extent in the next year's locust plague. , and countries such as Han, Wei, Zhao and Chu will fall into unprecedented weakness.

For Qin, this is an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Lu Buwei couldn't help but look at the other person in the carriage. This person's name is Yao Jia, a member of the Wei Kingdom, who was born in the "Shijian Menzi", that is, a hereditary jailer. However, in his generation, the family inheritance It was cut off, because Yao Jia had a higher pursuit.

This era is a terrible era full of war and death, but for some people, it is also an era of opportunity. In this era, the traditional order has been broken, and the new order has not yet been fully established. Among them, as long as you have real talents, you have the opportunity to break the shackles of identity and truly realize "changing your life".

And Yao Jia is a person who hopes to "change his life" by relying on his own talents. For this reason, after more than ten years of lingering between Wei and Zhao, he came to Qin and took refuge in Lu Buwei, a friend he made when he was doing business in the past. Now, his chance has come.

······
"Your Majesty, I have finished reading those bamboo slips." Lu Buwei, who came to Xianyang Palace, reported to Ying Zheng.

"So, Father Zhong has no doubts now, right?" Ying Zheng said clearly.

"Yes, although it is unimaginable, it is reasonable, and the records cannot be faked again and again. The country of Qin needs to prepare in advance for the catastrophe next year." Lu Buwei said.

"The purchase of grain needs to be put on the agenda. Father Zhong already has a candidate?" Ying Zheng said.

Lu Buwei came to Xianyang Palace this time and brought a person with him. Naturally, such a thing cannot be hidden from Ying Zheng, the owner of Xianyang Palace.

Yao Jia, it's been a long time. This person is more like a political strategist than the two future political strategists. Ying Zheng even doubts whether this person is the other one who lost the competition among the two political strategists of the previous generation. Unfortunately, There is no way to verify.

Of course, there is no need to delve into it too deeply, because no matter what his origin or origin is, as long as he can be used by the Qin State and bring enough value, these are enough. As for the others, they are not important at all.

"I do have a candidate, but whether to use him in the end depends on the king's decision." Lu Buwei lowered his posture at this time.

Because, he suddenly realized that Ying Zheng was no longer the young man he could handle arbitrarily. At this time, Ying Zheng already had enough ability to exert influence on Qin State, and Qin State also had enough people to respond to this influence.

This discovery made Lu Buwei slowly adjust the relationship between himself and Ying Zheng. Some things, he knew, could only be kept in the shadows, and could not be shown too clearly.

Ying Zheng nodded noncommittally, just going through the procedure. At present, in Qin State, Lu Buwei has the most abundant talent resources, and the only person who can find the right candidate is Lu Buwei.

Although Lu Buwei has various selfish intentions, compared with other people, he is still reliable at present, because the two are still considered to be a real community of interests.

Yao Jia was quickly summoned into Xianyang Palace.

Under Ying Zheng's watchful eyes, Yao Jia's tranquility gradually became unbearable, and tiny beads of sweat involuntarily appeared on his forehead.

From Ying Zheng's sight, Yao Jia had the illusion that the King Qin in front of him knew him very well, and for a smart person like him, it was very dangerous for others to know him too well.

Smart people are often lonely, Yao Jia is such a person, he also likes this kind of loneliness, because it is a symbol of his wisdom, he never needs like-minded people who understand him.

He hates that someone understands him, but he is only vaguely uneasy about King Qin's understanding of him.

"I heard that when Mr. Zhao was in Zhao, he was quite successful in business travel." Just when Yao Jia was about to lose his temper, Ying Zheng asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when I was in Zhao State, I was indeed doing business." Yao Jia said with a sigh of relief.

At this time, he thought that Ying Zheng's understanding of himself might come from Lu Buwei, so he didn't worry about being seen through, his secret still belonged to him.

"Gu is also interested in business affairs, and has been in contact with him in normal times. During this process, Gu has a question. I don't know. Mister may explain Gu's doubts." Ying Zheng said.

"Xiangguo was a great master in business affairs back then, how dare I use my ax in front of Xiangguo." Yao Jia said modestly.

"I would like to hear Mr.'s answer to this question." Ying Zheng said.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty." Yao Jia didn't evade any more when he saw this, he knew that this was Ying Zheng's test for him.

"What does a person need to do if he wants to make a fortune through business?" Ying Zheng said.

"It depends on what this person is good at." Yao Jia said calmly, this is his field of expertise.

"If this person doesn't have a skill, will it affect his fortune?" Ying Zheng said.

"It doesn't matter. You can only be a small businessman with one skill. Business is about money, and making money with money is the best way to make money." Yao Jia replied.

"What if he doesn't have enough money to start a business?" Ying Zheng asked again.

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money, as long as you have contacts and connections, you can also make a fortune." Yao Jia said, but there was a little more thought in his words.

"Skills, money, relationships, which factor is more important for doing business?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Small businessmen rely on their skills, medium and small businessmen rely on money, and big businessmen rely on relationships," Yao Jia said.

"Then I don't know, is Mr. a small businessman, a medium businessman, or a big businessman?" Ying Zheng asked calmly.

"I can only count it?" Yao Jia was about to answer, but the words got stuck in his throat.

Because he suddenly realized that Ying Zheng's question had a deeper meaning.

If Yao Jia wanted to become a big businessman, he needed relationships, and what relationship could be deeper and stronger than the relationship with King Qin before him?
