"Wandering businessman?" Looking at the head of the Chi family who conveyed to him a wandering businessman's request to see him, Qing Cang stopped writing.The pen was placed on the pen holder, and an instruction was issued in his hand. The waiter sitting in the hall took the short table with the pen and paper away, and Qing Cang was empty in front of him.

Su Yeyi behind Qing Cang used his ability to form a ball of water in Qing Cang's hand. The transparent round shape was squirming because of the unstable control.This is the practice subject that Qing Cang arranged for Su Yeyi. For some simple compositions, Su Yeyi must be proficient. This is the simplest and most water in the element is Su Yeyi's initial proficiency subject.

Put your hand into the water polo, clean your hand, and then pull it out, the water polo disappeared under Su Yeyi's control.Su Yeyi handed the soft towel to Qing Cang, and handed it to the waiter after Qing Cang finished wiping.

Vibrated his sleeves, and put his hands on the armrest beside the cushion, "It seems that the Patriarch of the Chi family can convey it, and it seems that the other party is very capable."

The Patriarch of the Chi family did not refute Qing Cang's meaningful words, because it would be too stupid to tell such an obvious lie to a shrewd and wise person like Wang.

"The shot is also very generous." The Patriarch of the Chi family calmly said another meaning in Qing Cang's words.

Qingcang just nodded, Qingcang is very aware of the shortcomings in human nature, and this kind of thing is an unspoken rule, no matter which society it will appear in.In this matter, the wise know what can be obtained and what cannot be obtained, and know the consequences, while the stupid accept it all and only focus on the immediate interests. The former can live comfortably and have a clear conscience, while the latter is uneasy The end was bleak.

The head of the Chi family belongs to the former. The reason why he is not afraid of being known by Qingcang is not only because he knows Qingcang's wisdom, but also because this matter is too normal. A wandering noble who has no status and no country wants to cooperate with the government. As it should be.

The short conversation between Qing Cang and the head of the Chi family was also a test for both the monarch and his ministers. Qing Cang tested the wisdom of the head of the Chi family, and the head of the Chi family tested Qing Cang's tolerance. Corruption and bribery can be big or small, but Absolutely can't stop it, but what should I do?Kill, never, release, intolerable.

Compared with the coldness that flashed in the eyes of Su Yeyi behind the king, which represented the young and naive expression of political wisdom, Qing Cang showed such indifference that he understood the meaning, which made the Patriarch of the Chi family think highly of Qing Cang even more. Point, their king, not only has great wisdom in military affairs, but also has a clear understanding in politics.

Qingcang's thinking is now focused on the word wandering merchant.

There are two types of merchants in this world. One is merchants operating in the country. They have no strength and no ability to face the frequent wars in this world. An accident or a robbery can wipe out their things.There is another kind of wandering merchants, who have no nationality. Because of their special nature, they can travel between countries without causing hostility. When they have nationality, they lose the right to travel freely in various countries. .

The huge benefits increased the number of wandering merchants, and gradually formed various wandering chambers of commerce. In order to guard against difficulties on the road, they absorbed many fighters. Later, wandering nobles also joined them for various reasons. The wandering aristocrats are in a leading position, and there are many people with extraordinary strength among them. They have done things like founding a country, but they were united by other countries to perish, and the same happened several times in the future.

The reason is simple. The chamber of commerce holds too much wealth and knows too many things from traveling among countries. If such an existence establishes a country, it will be a threat to other countries. Over time, the wandering nobles in the chamber of commerce will not be able to establish a country. The constraints just exist.

To become a vagabond trader, one must give up one's nationality, and it is very difficult to have one again. Even so, there are still many people who become stateless vagabonds for profit.

The Chamber of Commerce conducts commercial operations in various countries, and they also know each country very well. In addition to commercial operations, they also sell information. This time, the news of the national crisis is also passed on by them.

In the eyes of Qingcang, intelligence is very strange. The spies from other countries are all lurking among the people, and their status is very low. There has never been any detection of high-level officials. People who already have allegiance, how can they serve others? Instead, it is the chamber of commerce, because it wants to get benefits, has huge financial resources, and deals with high-level people, so it can know more secrets, which has caused the chamber of commerce. prosperity.

"Patriarch Chi, what do you think business is?" Qing Cang asked.

"Hey," the Patriarch of the Chi family was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, Wang's question is not without meaning, so what does it mean, "I think business is an act of making money." Really, that's what he thinks about business .

"Yi, what do you think?" Qing Cang asked his current students again.

"My lord, business allows us to buy a lot of things." After getting the answer from the Patriarch of the Chi family, he thought about it deeply and came up with such an answer.

Regarding the answers of the two, Qing Cang was neither wrong nor right. He asked this question just to confirm the world's views on business. representative meaning.

"Patriarch Chi, you should have seen his purpose with your ability, right?" Qing Cang asked.

"Yes." The head of the Chi family replied, "When they approached me, they asked about the clothes the king wore at the succession ceremony." At that ceremony, the king's royal driver also passed by the streets of the king's capital, It must have been seen at that time.

That day, when Su Yeyi took out a piece of material that the king had turned into silk from the king's private treasury, even the group of men fell in love with it. Fabrics without color and patterns are inferior to luxurious brocade cloths.After seeing silk and satin again, who would use brocade cloth to make a dress for the king? Immediately recruit people to use silk and satin to make royal clothes for the king. I still remember the excitement and trembling of the tailors, dyers, and embroiderers when they touched the silk and satin. Then they were 12 serious, for fear of ruining the silk and satin material, because of their hard work, there was that gorgeous, luxurious, complicated and luxurious royal dress.

"You told them that I made the silk and satin." Qing Cang said with certainty.

"Yes," the head of the Chi family replied, "My lord, is there a problem?" Seeing Qing Cang frowned, the head of the Chi family asked carefully.

"No, I was naive, I underestimated the magic power of silk and satin." Originally, it was only because of the experiment, but I didn't care when Su Yeyi turned it out, because silk and satin were too common in the previous life, so I ignored it for a while , the terrible influence of silk and satin, the Silk Road, the price is better than gold, this is the magic of silk, and it will continue to have such an influence in this world. "That man has a good vision." The wandering businessman has a sharp vision to seize business opportunities, so is it possible to cooperate.

"Tell him, I'll see him tomorrow." Today, he needs to think about it, the Wandering Chamber of Commerce, business, economy...

"Yes." The head of the Chi family resigned.

"Yi, go practice by yourself today." Qing Cang got up and left, he was going to the study to make plans.

"Yes." Su Yeyi stepped back, he knew that his king had something to think about.

When the head of the Chi family told the wandering businessman that Qing Cang met him, the wandering businessman could prepare a gift for Qing Cang.

Early the next morning, led by the Patriarch of the Chi family, the wandering merchants entered the palace.

When the wandering merchant passed certain places in the palace, he saw certain things in the palace, such as elegant and transparent gauze, such as a bottle with a bouquet of flowers in it. Every time he saw one, his eyes were bright and golden. Light flashed.

Sitting on his knees in the main hall, although the wandering businessman lowered his head, he kept thinking silently in his heart.

When the door was opened, he didn't even notice, and after the head of the Chi family saluted, there was no response.

The Patriarch of the Chi family was very dissatisfied with the behavior of the wandering merchant, and Su Yeyi taught him a lesson directly. Using the newly learned wind element, he wanted to make the wandering merchant go away, but he did not expect that the wandering merchant would be expelled from the counterattack. , a metal wall appeared, blocking Su Yeyi's actions.

Wandering nobles.Qing Cang, Su Yeyi, and the head of the Chi family thought at the same time.

The Patriarch of the Chi family thought about his mistake, Su Yeyi's heart quickly calmed down, while Qing Cang thought, it seems that he can make a decision, saving a lot of effort.

At this time, the wandering noble also recovered from his own thoughts, his face remained calm, but he was actually annoyed at how he had exposed his abilities.In order to cover up his mistakes, the wandering nobles hurriedly greeted Qing Cang, said some flattering words, and then presented gifts.

Qing Cang accepted gifts and the like, and did not pursue the rudeness of the wandering nobles.

The wandering nobleman raised his head. He stayed in Xianguo for two months. He happened to have experienced the crisis of Xianguo. He also heard about this young man's deeds. He was curious about the new king who reversed Xianguo's failure. , it is inevitable to look carefully at this time.

Black hair and black eyes, well-defined, although only 12 years old, you can already see the stern appearance of the future, just cold lines, deep eyes, tight lips, wearing, wearing, shua, the eyes of the wandering nobles appear bright gold again The brilliance of gold.

Clothes, jackets, embroidery, dyeing, tailoring, all are not the point, the point is the material, look, look, without any craftsmanship, just a touch of white on the sleeves, it is extremely luxurious, that smooth color, The tight texture is really too dazzling, how much is this worth.
