Xu Kun and Yan Xing sat in the tent again. The shocked soldiers were very efficient this time and soon brought the gangster over.

Sima Qian once said, "Now the law is inferior to merchants. Merchants are rich and noble, and respect farmers. Farmers are poor and humble." In the current times, the same is true for the court, the rules are abolition, and merchants who are good at ease can ease among the powerful and nobles, hoard goods, make huge profits, and even a family of thousands of gold. However, farmers not only suffer from natural disasters and wars, but they are rarely at peace, but also face the severity of government officials and bullying and embezzlement of powerful families.

Therefore, although the government orders emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce, the merchants Yan Xing saw in the military market were mostly people with elegant clothes and luxurious manners. They had some background or strength to enter the military market to start prices, sell transactions, and make a fortune in war.

But this man named Wu Yi is different from other merchants with elegant clothes and luxurious manners. He wears a Confucian robe, but is completely different from the merchants in the market. He is also quite humble and does not have the arrogance.

However, Yan Xing had already known in advance that this seemingly elegant and polite gangster in front of him was actually a person who used his power to join forces and colluded with each other. So although he seemed to have a good impression on the surface, he had no sympathy for this person in his heart.

When the soldiers hurriedly pulled over by the soldiers, no matter how he induces them to ask, the soldiers refused to disclose the details. They only said that a Sima from the army came to the city today, saying that there was a large pile of goods in his hand to look for a buyer and asked them to find a soldier first.

For this reason, the soldier, who was naturally skeptical in his heart, wanted to find an excuse to shirk away, but the soldiers who usually treated him smiling whenever they saw Qian Bo had no such patient temper today. They kept urging the soldier to move forward until they brought him to the tent and saw Xu Kun waving his hand to retreat, and then he stepped out of the tent like an amnesty.

The snail saw the soldiers who came at the same time seeing the two men sitting in the tent like rats and cats. He had been floating in the business world for several years, and he still had the ability to look at people's faces. At this time, he couldn't help feeling a little more uneasy when he saw the soldiers' expressions.

But now he has arrived at the tent, and even if the disaster is coming, he will face difficulties. So the slayer immediately fell to the ground and said respectfully:

"Little man Liu Qiao, pay homage to the two Simas!"

He naturally didn't know who the two in the tent were, but when he came, the military soldier said that a Sima in the army had a piece of goods in his hand and wanted to find a buyer. Now there are two people in the tent, and he didn't know who Sima was, and he couldn't lose his etiquette, so he simply turned his head back and bowed at the beginning.

Xu Kun originally had to happen as soon as Liu Qiao made a fortune, so he used this matter to intimidate him, allowing him to consciously lose money and eliminate disasters, and spend a lot of money to calm down today's affairs.

Seeing that he behaved quite like a Confucian businessman, Yan Xing felt curious, so he simply shook his eyes at Xu Kun, asking him not to speak for now, but to speak:

"So it's Liu Jun, get up and sit down!"

When Liu Qiao fell to the ground, he didn't dare to look up at Xu Kun and Yan Xing, who were sitting. He was also uneasy. He felt as if countless eyes were passing back and forth on his head. He colluded with each other and had done many undervalued and high profit behaviors, so he naturally felt uneasy.

Now he finally heard someone speak, and his attitude was quite kind. He didn't seem to be coming to ask for punishment, but his heart slowly calmed down. He stood up slowly, looked at Xu Kun, Yan Xing's face, and said with a smile:

"How dare the villain? Just stand!"

"If you want to sit, why do you say anything if you don't sit?"

Although Xu Kun didn't know what Yan Xing wanted to do, since Yan Xing wanted to play the role of a good person, the evil person naturally wanted him to act. So when he saw Liu Qiao delaying his words, he immediately scolded him.

Liu Qiao was naturally shocked by the angry Xu Kun. He didn't know why this person had such a big temper, but he didn't dare to say anything else. He immediately sat down on a mat, lowered his eyebrows and waited for Xu Kun and Yan Xing's question.

"Jun Liu doesn't look like a man from Luoyang. I don't know where he is from?"

Liu Qiao nodded quickly with a smile and said:

"Sima has good eyesight. The villain is from Yangcheng, Yingchuan. This time he came to Beijing to do some small business. As for Sima, he said that the villain is not like a market person, but he is highly respectful to the villain. The villain has only read the scriptures for a few years, and now he is a mediocre businessman."

When Yan Xing heard that the visitor was from Yingchuan County, he suddenly had something to do and smiled at the corner of his mouth, and a color flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, no wonder, Jun Township is located in Yingchuan County. Well, although we are from Guanxi, we have heard a lot of talented people in Yingchuan. Haha, this is also rare. Today's business matters can be temporarily suspended. Liu Jun first discusses the talents in the county for me."

The evaluation of the talents of the prefectures and counties is the favorite of the scholars of the times. Guo Zonglin and Li Ying have passed away, and the Yuedan Pin is still the most famous. Liu Qiao did not expect that the Sima in the army in front of him was not like the rude and rude military man in the military city. Although he was tall, he was crafty and elegant when he followed his words and respected scholars, and his words also had a faint Confucian style.

This is not surprising. Compared with the founding merits of the former Han Dynasty, the dynasty was a strong Confucian style. The founding meritorious heroes such as Deng Yu, Feng Yi and others were all talented in both civil and military affairs, and their words and deeds were Confucian.

Unexpectedly, he met such a person here. Liu Qiao secretly thought in his heart that he was worried that these arrogant and domineering military men were too difficult to get along with. Unexpectedly, Sima in the army was actually a well-educated person. Liu Qiao naturally wanted to meet his preferences. He was also confident of this originally somewhat lingering transaction and said with a smile:

"Although the villain is in business, he can be regarded as a person who knows the customs of his hometown. If Sima does not blame the villain for being shallow, then the villain will give Sima a try?"

Xu Kun, who was afraid that Yan Xing would sit next to him but did not have a good face to him, once again, "If you ask you to speak, how can you say anything else without finishing your speech?" When he saw that Yan Xing did not refuse, he immediately began to think and said as he spoke:

"Duke Xun of Yingyin is wise and has outstanding talent and is famous throughout the country. Once recruited, he was promoted one after another. He was promoted in less than a hundred days. Duke Li of Xiangcheng was a noble scholar. He stayed at home and was famous for his prefectures and counties. After the party and imprisonment was lifted, he was even appointed as the prime minister of Dongping, and was valued by the people and the people rely on peace. Zhong Chang, the Changshe, was a few talented people and was called filial and honest people. Now he is an official in the court and is also a famous county. There is also Han Gongwenjie, who was the chief censor of the court and dared to speak out because of his integrity. Now he was appointed as the governor of Jizhou, and an important official in the area, and was famous in the county... "

While Liu Qiao told the famous Yingchuan people who he knew and heard about when he was in business, he also chose the most famous and powerful people at the moment.

Needless to say, Xun Shuang is a famous scholar and famous throughout the country. After being summoned by Dong Zhuo, he was promoted one after another. He reached the highest position of the Three Dukes on 93 days, and the limelight was unparalleled.

Li Zan, his great-grandfather Li Xiu was appointed as the Grand Marshal, and his grandfather Li Yi was the prime minister of Zhao State. His father Li Ying was even more famous in the world. He served as the Sili School Commander. He was the leader of the Shilin, along with Chen Fan, Guo Zonglin and others.

The Changshe Zhong Yao, his great-grandfather Zhong Hao, is also a famous scholar in the world. Zhong Yao himself has been regarded as a genius since he was a child, and now he is a court official in the court.

Han Fu, also a famous talent in Yingchuan, was already the chief censor of the court. Now after Dong Zhuo took power, he was even appointed as the governor of Jizhou. The governor of the state was a senior official and all matters of the state were in charge. At first, when the court restored the state patriarch system, only those like Huang Wan, Liu Yan, and Liu Yu could only be held by officials from generation to generation or from the royal family Liu family. It is said that they have high positions and are powerful.

Liu Qiao wanted to please Yan Xing, and deliberately followed Yan Xing's wishes and found some famous Yingchuan celebrities who were either famous or powerful.

Unfortunately, Yan Xing seemed to dislike these people. After thinking about it, he heard Liu Qiao say:

"Are there other talents who have risen from Yingchuan?"

"this······"

Liu Qiao had just said most of the many famous and powerful Yingchuan celebrities that he could remember in his mind. Unexpectedly, Yan Xing was not satisfied. He could only respond quickly and said, "Also, and there are", and then desperately searched for the people he knew and continued:

"Yangdi Zhao Jun Boran and Yangdi Xin Jun Georgia are all talents from the future of our county, and they are well-known in counties. In addition, there are Du Junzixu, a descendant of the famous family of Dingling, and Chen Jun of Xuchang, Changwen, who is famous at a young age, and the Xun family monarchs, such as Xun Zhongyu, Xun Wenruo, Xun Youruo, and Xun Gongda, who are also famous and talented people......"

After talking, Liu Qiao felt that he had almost finished talking about everyone in Yingchuan. Du Xi, Zhao Yan, Chen Qun, Xun Yue, Xun Yu, Xun Chen, Xun You and many other famous scholars he had heard from him, and he also had to say the counties he knew about to give them their respective evaluations. After talking, Liu Qiao really couldn't think of it, so he could only make up the evaluation speech.

He originally thought Yan Xing was finally satisfied this time, but he didn't expect Yan Xing to seem to be disliked. Although he would nod slightly when he heard some names, he did not respond in the end, which made Liu Qiao's heart suddenly hang up. What was going on? He originally thought that a well-educated military man would be easier to deal with than those arrogant and domineering military man, but now he found that such a person is even more terrifying. As long as he obeys his rude requests, he can still cater to him. But even if you cater to military officials like Yan Xing, you don't know what he is thinking.

Yan Xing did not deliberately make things difficult for Liu Qiao in front of him. He was able to tell so many famous scholars and talents, which proved that Liu Qiao was not a businessman who was just a greedy businessman, and he still had some insight and intelligence.

But although the people he mentioned were really talented people, among which Xun Yu, Xun You and others were famous in later generations, they were somewhat different from the people he thought of.

After the spring, Yan Xing would go to Sanfu, but he knew that even if Huangfu Song was successfully summoned to Beijing, this battle against Dong in Guanxi and Guandong would be inevitable. At that time, he would naturally follow the army east to suppress the rebellion. Yingchuan is in the Central Plains, so it is naturally a place where both sides fought hard.

If I can know more about Yingchuan Talents at the moment.

At that time, you will take the lead and prescribe the right medicine to recruit some talented people. After all, "the prime minister of Guandong and the general of Guanxi" are not short of people under Yan Xing's men, but they lack people who can plan and win thousands of miles of strategists.

Yan Xing can still use Dong Zhuo to enter the capital. The prophets who attacked Dong planned to grow in the Dong camp, but once Dong Zhuo's camp fell, he would have to face the soldiers of the princes in Guandong independently. At that time, the prophet could no longer keep up with the changes and had to start preparing for the future.

The people Liu Qiao just mentioned are either local officials who are in charge of one area, officials who have entered the court as officials, or families of prominent families.

Just imagine that Yan Xing can recruit these people at the moment, it is naturally difficult. It is also extremely difficult to use the troops in his hands to force them to recruit them under his command. Just imagine, with a backstage like Xun Shuang in the court, how dare Yan Xing force his nephew Xun Yu to serve in his army.

It is best to recruit some talented people who have no family to rely on or have not yet achieved.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Yan Xing continued to ask:

"Have you heard of Guo Jia?"

"ah?"

"Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao!"

Yan Xing patiently said to Liu Qiao in front of him again, but looking at his surprised expression, it was obvious that Guo Jia is not only not famous at the moment, but even unknown. Yan Xing thought it would be fine, but he would lead his troops out east and send someone to search.

"Oh, Guo Jun, I don't know that Sima remembered the wrong name. The villain remembers that Guo Jungongze, a talented man in the county, was once an official in the county, and was quick to do political affairs. He was a talented man--"

Liu Qiao naturally didn't know Guo Jia, but he might as well follow Yan Xing's words and start talking again. Unfortunately, he was only halfway through this time, Yan Xing shook his head and signaled Liu Qiao not to say anything.

He naturally knew about Guo Tu, but he was afraid that he had already begun to go north to join his future lord Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.

Xu Kun looked at the questions and answers of the two people coldly, and he was also surprised. Why did Yan Xing, who was decisive in his daily life, do things like this today? He just slaughtered a fat sheep and made him bleed? Why did he ask so many useless questions?

Who is this Guo Tu and who is this Guo Jia?

It's really ignorant.

Just at this moment, seeing Yan Xing seemingly impatient with the noise of the villain Liu Qiao, Xu Kun immediately changed his face and spoke:

"Yanming, don't talk to him, how much knowledge can a businessman full of stinking smell of money have!"

"this--"

Liu Qiao didn't know that his erotic remarks were wrong, and that it would make Yan Xing, who was still kind just now, dissatisfied with him. He felt that he was very thoughtful and thoughtful. Even if one or two talented people missed it, it was a common thing for human beings. He was just a businessman, not a talented scholar who could never forget everything, and was well-informed and knowledgeable.

Seeing that the military officer on this place who had no good temper had a very disagreement, Liu Qiao couldn't help but complain in his heart, but based on the words shown by another military officer just now, he inferred that he was a well-educated and well-informed military officer, like a military officer who respected scholars.

So at this time, if you don’t regard what you like and show a little bit of the knowledge and integrity of a scholar, you are afraid that your own situation will be really bad.

So Liu Qiao thorned his teeth and began to fight. Although he was uneasy, he pretended to be calm and calm, and said to Xu Kun:

"What Sima said is so bad, how can we say that the merchants have no knowledge? Guan Yiwu was a merchant with his friends at a young age. He assisted Duke Heng of Qi to respect the king and expel the barbarians, making Qi the king the top dominant among the nations. Like Fan Shaobo, who repeatedly offered strange strategies, promoted Yue and destroyed Wu, and had all the talents of civil and military affairs. After his success, he still entrusted his name to Tao Zhu, and sailed into the five lakes, and then went to merchants."

After a pause, Liu Qiao secretly glanced at Yan Xing's face and continued:

"For example, Guan Ying, the former Han Taiwei, made a living by selling silk stockings in the early years. Later, he identified the wise ruler, and was a member of the country's wings. He was the best minister. He was a merchant from Sang Hongyang, and planned for the country and carried out a plan to achieve equal losses. The treasury was abundant. Emperor Wu also relied on his efforts to defeat the Xiongnu. In this way, can the merchants be unaware of their knowledge?"

After Liu Qiao saw that Yan Xing was not angry because of his words, he was very convinced. He was a businessman and was originally an eloquent person. Moreover, he learned these words from a friend who was well-informed and knowledgeable. The examples of Guan Zhong, Fan Li, Guan Ying and Sang Hongyang quoted naturally would not make any mistakes. For a moment, he seemed to be arguing and aggressive, but Xu Kun was choked so hard that he could not speak.

Finally, Xu Kun could not refute Liu Qiao's example, and could only snort coldly and said:

"Even if you have a little knowledge, then what? To emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce is the foundation of the country. Merchants cannot start a horse and kill enemies, and they are not at ease in farming. They only benefit from the country if they are expensive and buy at a low price."

However, Liu Qiao, who had already given up, immediately retorted:

"This is a bad statement. Is the merchants and the country useless? The clothes on Sima were woven in the hands of peasants. But if there is no hand of merchants like us, can these clothes be worn on Sima? During the time of Emperor Jing of Han, the border garrison was difficult and the treasury was difficult to save. If the merchants such as us were not able to transport food, would they have achieved the success of expanding their territory? As for merchants who have been transporting thousands of miles of luck, they have worked hard, and they have high prices and low prices. The common sense of human beings, and military tactics also say that they avoid the real and attack the weak. These two are the same things that wise people have in common."

Best, he summed up loudly:

"The merchants work hard and make fortunes thousands of miles away to understand the existence and non-existence, so that the various places have abundant resources and the people are at peace. From this we can see that people in the world are not businessmen, and although merchants are cheap people, there are also many people who are beneficial to the country's fundamentals."

When Yan Xing heard Liu Qiao say this, he had to nod. He was different from most people who held the "focus on agriculture and suppress commerce". He knew the role of commerce in promoting economic and people's livelihood. Nowadays, many knowledgeable people, such as Wang Fu and Cui Shi, were able to recognize the importance of commercial transportation and transfer and transferring to the existence and notes.

Yan Xing smiled and signaled Xu Kun not to speak for the time being, he continued:

"Jun Liu's words are very different from the customs of the times. However, the words are so convincing that we can't help but feel the same. Although Liu, as a merchant, is really a talented person!"

Liu Qiao successfully refuted Xu Kun's questioning, and saw that Yan Xing's face slowed down immediately after listening to his words, and then turned into a look of appreciation again. He immediately knew that he had been the right bet this time. This Sima was indeed a respectful person. As long as he showed the scholar's knowledge and integrity, he could immediately win his favor. It seems that there are still some things to do in this transaction!

He felt proud and a little fluttering, thinking that one of these two men had a bad temper and the other respected the scholars, but they were both military men. How much knowledge could they have? As long as he casually used some of the methods he had learned, he could immediately make the two men obey.

So he continued to say with Yan Xing's words:

"I dare not. Although I am not able to learn scriptures, I am also traveling around the world and seeing people and affairs. I met Yiren teaching Fan Li's learning. He once said, "If you are familiar with this, you will be easy to take the golden seal of Su Qin." Although I am dull, I also claimed to have achieved some success during my practice. Today, Sima Hou looked at it, so I gave a try to tell you for the two kings."

When Yan Xing's eyes lit up and his smile became even stronger when he heard Liu Qiao claiming to have learned Fan Li's studies, he said with a smile:
Chapter completed!
