Dahan first prince

Chapter 159 The best policy?Obviously it's a no-brainer!

Hearing the old man's question, Qian Buyi's smile faltered, and there was a hint of sternness between his brows.

"Old and immortal!"

There was a slander full of resentment, but seeing Qian Buyi's face, he only nodded a little seriously.

"It's exactly as the public said: Although this strategy seems to be perfect, it is still not foolproof."

"—Although last year, there were many rumors in Chang'an that 'Your Majesty wants to change the storage', but when the time came for the expedition, His Majesty ordered the crown prince to supervise the country, and was in charge of the renovation of the Zhengguo Canal."

"At the beginning of the year, the crown prince sent the servants of the officials and servants of the government to build the canal, so that the people in Weibei went to work for the canal."

"As of now, the prince's project to build the canal is almost here; all the hundreds of thousands of households in Weibei say that the prince has 'fulfilled His Majesty's benevolence and love for the people'."

Having said that, Qian Buyi frowned a little, sighed leisurely, and shook his head worriedly.

"If your majesty has no desire to store easily, the government orders issued by the crown prince this time may be inevitable."

"Even if His Majesty still doesn't like the Crown Prince, if he thinks only of the concern that 'the orders cannot be changed day and night', His Majesty may just make mistakes and just reprimand the Crown Prince for what he has done, instead of changing it."

"If that's the case, we, the grain merchant Mijia, will still be crowned princes in Guanzhong..."

After saying that, seeing Qian Buyi's relaxed face, he sat back on his head with a lot of worry, staring at the several government orders on the case table in front of him, and stared blankly?
Everyone in the hall didn't pay attention to the change of Qian Buji's expression, they only thought about it for a while, and came back to their senses from the beautiful imagination that 'Your Majesty will punish the prince'.

——Your Majesty's desire to store things easily is something that has been spread throughout the Guanzhong and is known to all women and children, but no matter what, this matter still remains in the category of 'theory of things'.

Except for this 'rumor' which is impossible to distinguish true from false, everything else remains the same.

The emperor is still Liu Bang, the prime minister is still Xiao He, the prince Liu Ying, and now he is the prince of Jian Guo!
Even if you take ten thousand steps back, the emperor Liu Bang really doesn't like the prince Liu Ying, and he really has plans to make him a crown prince, so the emperor Liu Bang doesn't hate businessmen?
——You should know this one, but immediately after ascension to the throne, even the capital city was not determined, so an imperial edict was issued to the world: Jia people are not allowed to wear silk or ride in cars!
Such an emperor who is full of malice towards businessmen, can he hate his own son even more than businessmen?
I'm afraid that when that time comes, even if it's for himself, for the face of the court, that person will make the wrong mistake and sit back and watch the grain merchant Mijia in Guanzhong be wiped out by the prince!
Go to heaven, that is, after the incident, scold the crown prince in private, or find another opportunity to change the crown prince.

However, when the crown prince issued a decree saying that 'the Changling Tian clan had an accomplice in assassinating the crown prince' and limited the identity of the 'accomplice' to a businessman, how many of the people sitting in the hall at this moment can survive until that day , it is unknown...

"In this way, this 'middle policy' is not as good as that bad policy!"

"No matter how bad the plan is, you can still protect your family and life, keep your family money as your foundation, and do other things..."

Thinking like this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but focus on Qian Buyi again.

But this time, there was finally no sign of resignation in the eyes of the crowd looking at Qian Buyi.

"I also ask Mr. Qian to tell us: If we follow the best policy, what should we do?"

With everyone letting go of their hearts, unwillingness to Qian Busu's "main concern with COFCO", and sincerely asking Qian Busu for advice on different things, the old man looked at Qian Busu with a hint of guard in his eyes.

But seeing that Qian Buyi didn't notice the change in the old man's expression at all, he only thought for a long time, then he gritted his teeth and jumped up from his seat!

"The best policy is to fight against foreign enemies with the same hatred!"

Saying these words with determination on his face, Qian Buyi's eyes suddenly showed a touch of sternness!
"The crown prince wants to leave our grain merchant Mijia in Guanzhong, but now in Guanzhong, we can't do without our grain merchant Mijia!"

"Without us selling grain in the market, there are millions of people in Guanzhong. What should we feed on?"

"Chang'an's southern and northern armies, there are officials and assistants in the department, and officials and officials in the court. What should be the salary?"

Having said that, he slammed Qian Busu on the desk in front of him again, propped his upper body on the desk, and stared wide-eyed!

"According to the best policy, you can fight against the enemy and throw your food into the Weishui and Jingshuis!"

"In this way, although we have suffered huge losses, there will be no more rice for food in Guanzhong!"

"We have no rice and grain in our hands, and the prince can't blame us for 'banning merchants and grain'!"

"Wait for a few months, and all the people in Guanzhong will be starving and dying, and the court officials will have no rice to eat, and your majesty's army will have no food to lose, and the world will be in chaos!"

"If you are blessed by the gods, the world will be full of wars, and the price of food will be as high as ten thousand dollars at the end of Qin Dynasty!"

As he spoke in a passionate tone, Qian Buyi looked at everyone in the hall madly.

"Do you still remember the Xuanqu Ren family?"

"In the Qin Dynasty, the Ren family of Xuanqu was the warehouse official of the governor of the Qin Dynasty; in the second world, the world was in chaos, and the Ren family of Xuanqu took the grain of the governor's road as their own, and established an invincible position with rice and grain worth tens of thousands of dollars!"

"If this time, we can share the same hatred with the enemy, sink all the rice and grain in the Guanzhong into the water, and wait for the world to be chaotic, we can also follow the example of Xuanqu Ren's trip, or is it unknown?"

As he said that, Qian Buji couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and forced himself to be calm and said: "Even if it doesn't come to such a place, your Majesty's army is out, and there is no rice to lose, and there will be no chaos in Pingdai and Zhao!"

"In addition, Guanzhong is full of hunger and death, and the minister has no rice to eat. Even if His Majesty is unwilling, he should thank the world as Prince Yi!"

"At that time, if your majesty wants to put an end to the chaos in Guanzhong, you should rely heavily on our grain merchant, Mijia; even if you can't rank among the powerful, we will not have to worry about our lives in the future..."

Drawing this picture in front of everyone with anticipation on his face, Qian Buyi finally came back from his reverie reluctantly, and sat back on the head safely.

"This is my best policy!"

"You can speak freely, each of you can choose your own strategy."

"If you are not cowardly, you can fight against the enemy. I am willing to be the leader, so that in the future, we, the grain merchant Mijia, will have a smooth and smooth road!"

Following Qian Buyi's voice, it gradually dissipated in the huge living room, but the expressions of everyone in the hall showed various strange appearances.

Some people are terrified by Qian Buyi's horrible scene of "all over Guanzhong are starving and dying, the ministers have no rice to eat, and the army has no food to lose, leading to chaos in the world".

Some people, because of Qian Buyi's description of the beautiful scene of "the emperor abolished the storage to thank the world, and reused the grain merchant Mi Jia to level the Guanzhong", felt a little heavy and their mouths became parched.

More people sink repeatedly in these two diametrically opposed, but equally heart-pounding, blood-spitting emotions, and they can't let themselves lean to one side.

It is precisely because of the eerie silence in the hall, and the intuition of everyone who was so sharp due to the rush of adrenaline, that the old man's next cold snort was so loud and clear...

"Humph!"

"The best policy?!"

"This is clearly the ultimate strategy!!"

With a cold reprimand, the old man looked at Qian Buyi with no respect at all!
"A mere merchant who wants to make a profit by causing chaos in Guanzhong and the world?"

"Humph!!"

"I've lived for sixty years, and I've never seen such a brazen and overconfident person!!!"

Several old roars in succession finally provoked everyone in the hall to regain their senses from the dangerous mood of trembling and anticipation before.

I saw the old man looked at the people on the left and right, and continued: "I want everyone to know!"

"——Changling Tian's family, more than [-] people, all died in the past, Tian's secret discussion with us, in order to drive up the price of grain in Guanzhong!"

"And the assassination of the crown prince has nothing to do with the Changlingtian clan!!"

"It was just to drive up the price of grain, and it has not been done yet. The Changling Tian clan and the whole family lost more than [-] people for unreasonable crimes!"

"Don't you all still want to stay here and discuss the plan of self-destruction of the clan with this evil bureaucrat?"

Having said that, the old man turned around again, raised his hand with resentment in his eyes, and pointed at Qian Buyi with trembling fingers.

"In the past, the old man had a very close personal relationship with the Tian family, and he knew more about the grain price hike!"

"The old man also knows that the Tian family intends to drive up the price of grain, but it is because the crown prince is renovating the Zhengguo Canal, or the price of grain in Guanzhong will drop sharply next year!"

"That's why, today, this old man didn't dare to be born, and he won the crown by sitting and watching you!!"

"How could you think that Er Liao would be so foolish as to collude with King Zhao, and the Tian family, who was an enemy of the crown prince, would dare to use such evil schemes to marry my clan?!"

"Humph!!!!!!"

With a cold snort of extreme anger, the old man turned around angrily, regardless of Qian Buyi's gloomy face, and bowed his hands to everyone with a solemn face.

"Everyone, all of you are friends who have watched and helped each other with the old man in the past."

"Today, I just said one word to persuade everyone to protect the family hall."

"—Even if the dragon doesn't like children, he will never allow his bloodline to be bullied by dogs!"

"Old man, that's all I can say..."

After saying that, the old man bowed his hands heavily, turned his back and turned his head, looked at Qian Buyi behind him out of the corner of his eyes, and only smiled contemptuously.

"Today and tomorrow, even if the old man has no money left in his family, he should offer some blood in front of Qian Gong's tomb!"

"If you are too old, if you don't want to give up the world, Mr. Qian will go to the trough!"

Seeing the old man drop such a chilling sentence, everyone's expressions suddenly changed!

In just a moment, several people temporarily put aside the shame and indignation that the old man described as a 'dog' before, and licked their faces.

"Dugong, Dugong, go slowly!"

Blocking the way of the old man surnamed Du from his arms, he saw those people clapping their hands anxiously.

"Please also ask Mr. Du to say clearly: what's wrong with this best policy?"

"What will Du Gong want in the future?"

Hearing this question, he saw the old man turned sideways with a sarcasm on his face, and sneered again at the money above him.

"—You must know that in the past, even Xiang Yu, the overlord, was driven to Wujiang for the present, and ended up in a situation where he drew his sword and killed himself."

"Don't you all think that what you can do is better than Xiang Yu?"

As he spoke, he saw the old man sneer again.

"Hey!"

"Overlord Xiang Yu, the current Marquis of Huaiyin, has set up an ambush formation on all sides, and Fang is at the end of his way."

"However, even though the Marquis of Huaiyin was able to kill the overlord, wouldn't it be His Majesty who changed the king into a marquis and imprisoned Chang'an?"

Having said that, the old man finally gave Qian Buyi a last look, then turned around and looked at the people in front of him with a sigh.

"This old man is cowardly, the strategy that Mr. Qian said fits the old man's way of earning a living."

"The old man wants to sell all the food in his hand, and sell the Shaofu to the south of Chang'an, so as to avoid future troubles."

"In the future, the old man will either be the brocade of Bashu, or the riches of Qidi, and go back and forth between various places; no matter what, it will not be a place where there is no food and clothing."

As he spoke, the old man gave a bitter smile, and straightened his expression a bit.

"Thinking of the love in the past, what you plan today, the old man will never tell outsiders."

"I only hope that in the spring and summer of next year, in Wuguan, Hangu Pass, or somewhere in Guanzhong, I can see that your wives and children are healthy, and you will bow to the old man..."

After saying that, the old man finally bowed his hands to everyone with a desolate face, and then walked out of the hall, leaving behind a very lonely back for everyone in the hall.

But for some reason, everyone felt a little peace of mind from the old man's bitter and desolate back...
Not a while later, in a certain corner, a slightly younger figure stood up and bowed to Qian Buyi.

"My father was only half a year old when he died, and he was born to take power in the family not long ago. I really dare not follow Qian Gong's advice. I just want to protect the clan and live up to the trust of my late father."

"Duke Qian bestowed a plan, thinking that my clan will survive, and I will buy generous gifts for my later life to thank Duke Qian for his advice."

"Today, late students will stay soon."

"Farewell."

As another person followed the old man and left, several people with similar clothes stood up one after another in the hall, and they gave money without any doubt.

"We are all in Weinan, and we don't only do food and rice. Even if the prince wants to cut off the grain merchant Mijia, it will not cut off our way of life."

"We would like to follow Qian Gong's policy and wait for your majesty's edict. If your majesty removes the prince's decree, the grain will still be in stock. If not, we will follow the policy given by Qian Gong and sell all the grain in Shaofu."

"I am very grateful to Mr. Qian for the middle and second strategies. In a few days, I will give each of them a hundred gold rewards and send them to Mr. Qian's mansion."

"There is still a long way to go, we will go first."

"Farewell..."

Several people left again, and the remaining people lost their worries, got up in order, took their leave and left.

Without exception, everyone, because of Qian Buyi's "bestowment", promised generous gifts.

In the end, only Qian Buyi was left in the huge hall, and beside him, the middle-aged man with a mole at the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that there were still people left behind, Qian Buyi felt a little bit resentful; but thinking of his "gloomy ambition" not being recognized, Qian Buji gritted his teeth faintly.

"Hey!"

"How about the riches?"

"What about the rich side?"

"Once something happens, don't you still be a rat?!"

Seeing Qian Buyi angrily scolding those who left, the middle-aged man who stayed behind also shook his head and smiled, trying to comfort Qian Buyi.

However, what Qian Buyi didn't expect at all was: just now, when the grain merchants in Guanzhong left, they promised him a thank you gift, but in the end it became his funeral object.

——Because at this moment, the old man who left first was constantly urging the groom to make the carriage go faster!
And the end point of the old man's trip is located a few hundred steps south of Chang'an Arsenal, the still heavily guarded Ting Wei's yamen...
　Also, there is one more...

　　Me, I'm trying to restore the update...

　　Big, everyone, stop scolding...
