Be a sick and weak noble son in Daqin

Wei Ji withdrew his gaze without a trace, and signaled Qin Gong to talk to him alone. The merchants of Wei State can travel freely in the Shandong countries. If Qin State and Wei State can reach a consensus, then the next thing will be much simpler.

After Jing Jian arrived in Weiguo, he was responsible for handling the matter of seeking talents, and escorted him and Xiao Jia back. Anyway, the people have already been sent out, so it is okay to assign more tasks.

Young Master Qian squeezed his chin and looked at the two people walking away, then looked at Jing Jian who was also confused beside him, bumped his shoulder and asked, "Guess what they want to say?"

"Your Majesty said that although Young Master Ji is young, he has the talent for governing the country. It should be a major issue related to the two countries of Qin and Wei." Jing Jian nodded solemnly, feeling that his guess was correct, and couldn't help but ask back after speaking, "People live here these days, you should know better than me."

Young Master Qian: ...

You talk too much!

Xiao Jia tilted his head and looked at the two people who seemed to want to fight, shook his head and turned to leave. He still had a lot of things to do, and he didn't have time to watch them mess around.

The carriage had been idle all winter, and it was only pulled out to dry yesterday afternoon, as well as the luggage they brought when they came, and the special products that needed to be brought back to Diqiu, so many things had to be done by him.

Hey, being too capable is hard work.

In the not-so-bright room, Wei Ji and Duke Qin sat opposite each other. He didn't want to say much, but the caravan entered Qin. The connection between Qin State and the Central Plains has been increasing over the years, and someone from Wei State has already done business here. , but more of them are businessmen from the state of Wei.

The Wei State is powerful, and it is the suzerain of many small countries around it. It is one thing for Qin and Wei to fight each other, but it is another for merchants to do business. The price difference is several times that of other places.

A country where merchants gather may not be strong, but a strong country will definitely have merchants. Even if the relationship between Qin and Wei is tense, no one will restrict Wei people from entering Qin to do business.

It is a good thing to have businessmen from the Central Plains coming to Qin, but what they trade is usually grain and fur, and no one dares to transport important things such as salt, iron and copper to this side.

The old armored soldiers of the Qin people can still defeat the Wei army. If they have the same elite soldiers and weapons as the Wei state, wouldn't the king of Wei not even sleep well?

Wei Ji didn't have so many scruples about what Wei people didn't sell to Qin. Although Wei respected Wei, the relationship between the two countries was not good. It's not a big deal, anyone who has a few neighbors who come to rob their house from time to time will not be happy, okay?

Qin Gong became more and more excited when he heard it, and before the indifferent young man in front of him finished speaking, he couldn't wait to ask back, "Master Jing Tie and other things can really make decisions?"

The Qin people took root in the west, and the Chinese could fight on horseback. They fought against the Rongdi on the grassland for hundreds of years. Compared with the Central Plains, the fighting methods were more wild. To match, most of the cavalry were changed to chariot soldiers.

The chariots were cumbersome and slow to move. After the division of the three families, the etiquette collapsed and the music broke down. Wars between countries will not follow the etiquette as before. Once the cavalry charges, the chariots and infantry have no ability to resist.

In the past few years, Wei State was able to beat Qin State so badly, because Wei State had the most well-equipped cavalry in the world. The horseshoes were equipped with iron palms, and the soldiers were equipped with armored cavalry. They were fast, nimble and powerful, and Wu Qi's ability to train soldiers was rare. Going beyond, Qin State exhausted all its troops and failed to withstand Wei State's [-] recruits. This is the shame of their Qin people.

The state of Qin has a lot of trade with the grasslands. Good horses are not difficult for them. What is difficult is the fine iron for casting horse gear and armor and weapons. Therefore, after taking the throne, Duke Xian immediately rectified the army and tried every means to buy from the Shandong states. The refined iron was smuggled back to the state of Qin, and thus there were excellent cavalry capable of fighting against the state of Wei.

It took a lot of money to transport the refined iron back to the public, and it was difficult to return to the Qin State. It was only possible to equip more than [-] people with all our efforts. Now that the relationship between Qin and Wei is tense, it is difficult to transport the refined iron back. blue sky.

If the merchants of Wei State can really take the opportunity to send some fine iron, Qin State will be able to train more elite cavalry, and it will have more confidence in fighting Wei State.

Wei Ji pulled his hair back, looked at Duke Qin who looked excited, nodded and said, "There are many caravans in the State of Wei, among other things, I can be the master of all Wei's caravans."

His brother seldom interfered in the business of the caravan, and the subordinates were in charge of it. The court affairs were not a headache enough, so how could he still care about such trivial matters?

There are not many sons in Weiguo, this generation is unknown except for his elder brother and the rest of him. His elder brother has strict control over the country, no matter it is the clan or the offshoot of the male clan, the power in his hands must not exceed the limit he can tolerate.

It stands to reason that he should also be a member of the unknown, but this is not the case. He is the youngest son of Shenggong Xun. He is the son of the current Duke Wei and his mother. When there was no son, he was directly raised as a son.

Among other things, even if he lost money to the caravan, his brother wouldn't say anything, he would only worry about his younger brother being hit and unhappy, what should he do?

"My lord, Qu Liang thank you very much." Duke Qin took a few deep breaths to calm down, got up and bowed to the young man in front of him, and then said solemnly, "If this can be done, the guard If the country is in trouble, Qin will do its best to help."

"Qin Gong's words are serious." Wei Ji got up and replied, the big stone in his heart was finally put down, after talking for so long, what he was waiting for was this sentence.

"I'll go back and make it clear to Supervisor Jing that you can't make any mistakes when you go to Weiguo this time." Qin Gong clenched his fists and said in a low voice, very grateful that their elder brother brought this man back to Liyang City.

The sky will not destroy Qin, and Qin will be able to tide over the difficulties.

"If there is nothing else, we can start tomorrow." There is not much to pack, and they can leave at any time as long as they are manned.

He and Xiao Jia were the only two people who came here, and it was only luck that they could reach Qin State safely. Luck is too elusive, so it would be better if someone escorted them.

The two said a few more words, and then Qin Gong hurriedly called Gong Ziqian and Jing Jian away. Wei Ji stood in the corridor and watched for a while, and then lowered his eyes and sighed when the footsteps went away.

If there were no accidents, he might return to the Qin Kingdom in the future. Young Master An is a bastard, he is not a human being, and he doesn't want Wei Guo to get involved, so he can only take advantage of the situation to retaliate.

Just like what Gong Ziqian said before, Wei State is the suzerain state of Wei State, even if there is any grievance, you can’t open it. Qin and Wei are feuds. No matter what happens, there will be war in the future. Although it is weaker now, it is very important for the world to know For him in the current situation, this is the best choice.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, when countries competed for supremacy, powerful countries only thought of the name of the overlord. However, after the division of the Jin Dynasty, small countries were continuously annexed, and wars were launched with the goal of destroying the country.

If not, Duke Qin would not be in such a hurry to reform and strengthen the country. Since Marquis Wu of Wei, the State of Wei has been encroaching on the land of Qin, and the current king of Wei is even more focused on swallowing the land of Qin and destroying the State of Qin. How could he not be in a hurry in such a situation?

The young man shook his head and went back to his room, continuing to tidy up the bamboo slips left over from yesterday. On the other side, Duke Qin put Young Master Qian aside, and asked Jing Jian to remind him to be vigilant on the road. No matter what he said, he would not let Young Master Ji get into trouble on the road. .

They can't smelt iron by themselves. If refined iron can be brought in, even if they don't fight Wei Guo, Rongdi Yiqu can settle down. As long as they are not surrounded by enemies, they will have more energy to do other things.

Young Master Qian beat his chest and stomped his feet, feeling aggrieved, if he hadn't had to lead the troops out, he would have personally sent Ji'er back.

"Brother, don't mess around, do you think you look like a businessman?" Duke Qin ruthlessly pierced the man's illusion, and continued with a frown, "Wei has deployed heavy troops in Hexi, and it is difficult for ordinary objects to enter Qin. , let alone refined iron, Jing Jian has the experience of being a spy, so he is the most suitable for this matter."

Young Master Qian: ...

He just said one thing, this guy is nice, and he said a lot, does he seem like someone who can mess around?

Gong Ziqian lowered his head and muttered for a while, seeing that the arrangement of their master was almost done, he patted Jing Jian on the shoulder and told him, "Ji'er is not in good health, if you are not in a hurry, don't go too fast in the carriage, if there is nothing serious, just listen to him on the way." , that child knows more about the Central Plains than you."

Jing Jian's expression was a little strange, and just as he was about to answer, he saw their family's admiral looking him up and down several times, "Brother, why are you talking so much today?"

"Why am I babbling? Is it wrong to say a few more words?" The young master didn't care about anything when his temper came up, and he widened his eyes and said angrily, "Who raised you when you were young? Ji'er lived with me for so long Why did I say a few more words for a long time?"

"Brother is right. Ji'er is weak, so of course you have to pay attention to bumpy roads. Jing Jian, have you remembered what the eldest son said?" Seeing that something was wrong, Qin Gong immediately winked at Jing Jian and turned to run away. , he was stupid to stay and bicker with their elder brother.

The unlucky Jing Jian watched their master run away, and then looked at the still angry young master Qian, who was expressionless for a while and couldn't help but sighed, "What's the matter?"

He wasn't a brat who hadn't gone out to do errands before, and he really thought that there might be enemy soldiers intercepting and killing him on the way.

Young Master Qian gave him a white look, and let their family's monarch leave with a straight expression and continued, "There are no enemy soldiers intercepting and killing on the road, but you have to be careful, especially in the territory of Wei State, you must not take it lightly."

He clearly remembered the reason why Ji'er came to Qin, what if he bumped into Young Master Ang again, he would be bullied in Wei, and it would be even worse in Wei.

Jing Jian frowned, always felt that there was something in what Young Master Qian said, even he only found out the identity of Young Master Ji last night, who else would harm them on the road?

Under Young Master Qian's unnecessary exhortation, Jing Jian cautiously raised the danger level of this road again, and discussed with the dozens of soldiers selected for a long time how to reach Weiguo safely.

In short, after Wei Ji arranged the bamboo slips and seeds, what he saw was a group of men from Qin who were so heavily guarded that they seemed to be on guard against someone robbing the court.

Xiao Jia pulled out the carriage that had been idle for the whole winter, arranged it comfortably, and was about to drive the carriage just like when she came. Who would have thought that she would be driven into the carriage before the whip was warmed up.

The little guard looked at their young master blankly, opened the curtain to look at the young man in black who robbed him of his work, then looked at the group of guards following him, blinked his eyes and asked hesitantly, "Sir, shall I go down?" Is it more appropriate?"

"It's okay." Wei Ji gathered his coat, looked at Young Master Qian who was standing beside him and asked in a low voice, "Why is it so much more than what the guard said yesterday?"

Would it be necessary to rob a house along the way?Or is it that there are so many bandits in Qin State that even officers and soldiers are afraid of them?

No way, it was quite peaceful when he and Xiao Jia came here, so what on earth do so many people want to do?

Young Master Qian scratched his head uncomfortably, his eyes flickered, and then he called Jing Jian in a rough voice to ask.

Jing Supervisor:? ? ?

Didn't you say that the road is dangerous?

The author has something to say: Gong Ziqian (but also strong when he is not right): Anyway, it is not my fault.
