The fifth volume of the Qin Dynasty, the third chapter, the Western Pole Trading Company
With a loud bang, Lai Wenzhen slapped the cases in front of him, and stood up and glared at Du Cheng.
If we talk about the several Donghua residences that we were traveling around in front of us, and the mood of passers-by, gains and losses are insignificant. However, Xu Le led everyone to fight to the death and saved them in a bloody battle. It is where everyone settled in the world of Donghua!
Fat people often have good tempers, and Lai Simi is the same. Everyone always smiles when they are together, and it doesn’t matter how big the joke is. Even the little maids in the city lord’s mansion are a little daring to be neither big nor small with Lai Wenzhen. But now, Lai Wenzhen is standing there, and her whole body exudes a murderous aura!
"You try to say it again?"
Xu Le waved: "Old Fourth, sit down and talk."
Compared to Lai Wenzhen, Xu Le seemed calm. One reason was his current status. Before he knew it, Xu Le had already become a little more conscious of a superior. Although he was still so enthusiastic and cheerful with his brothers, he was free and easy from all over the world. However, he had already begun to have some scheming in front of outsiders.
When Du Cheng mentioned that their Xiji Trading Company had the full output of Xihua Iron, Xu Le felt something was wrong. Xihua Iron is an important material used by Rouran people to trade with Donghua. It is all under the control of Xiji Trading Company, but Xiji Trading Company is just west of Rongqi, and it is no longer possible to know which party it really supports.
Lai Wenzhen pointed at Du Cheng and signaled that you should be careful when speaking, and then sat down angrily.
Du Cheng smiled calmly: "This is a bit out of the way. I'm sorry for the crime. I'm sincere. It's to let Xu Jun do his own thing in these two eagle gates, and no longer have to bleed and work hard for the Shi family to block the important pass. When Qiang Zhao goes south one day, Xu Jun will let the road open, that's it. Xiji Trading Company will definitely give Xu Jun a good reward."
Lai Wenzhen was shocked, and no longer had the anger he had just now, and turned his eyes to think. Xu Le still nodded quietly and asked lightly: "Who is behind Xiji Trading Company? Zhao people?"
Du Cheng smiled proudly: "There has never been anyone behind Qishang, only Qishang chooses who to support."
Xu Le asked: "Why should Xiji Trading Company support Zhao people?"
Du Cheng looked at Xu Le in surprise, as if wondering why Xu Le knew nothing about this. He walked back to his seat and signaled to Xu Le to give tea. Then he took a sip and explained it carefully.
A hundred and decades ago, in addition to their private divisions, the insignificant medium-sized trading company in Lintao City provided supplies to more than 100,000 Qin and Zhao families who were expeditioning the Western Wilderness.
There is also a group of wizards who lose their power in the battle between the gimbalists.
That trading company is the predecessor of Xiji Trading Company. Because the founder was not a native of Lintao, he was greatly excluded by the already large-scale Qi merchants at that time and was about to go bankrupt. The trading company put the final bet on the Qin and Zhao families' expedition to the Western Wilderness.
And that group of craftsmen who lost power is the current Tiandao Sect.
This expedition to the Western Wilderness is also an epic in the history of Donghua. The two marquis of Qin and Zhao worked hard and bloody battles, and finally gained a foothold near Qishui and Zhongshan, and slowly started their respective countries. The predecessor of Xiji Trading Company also made great sacrifices in such a difficult founding war, but they were always transporting supplies and purchasing the spoils seized by the Qin and Zhao families, helping them step by step to advance to the depths of the Western Wilderness.
The Qin and Zhao finally opened up a situation west of Rongqi. Decades later, the Donghua chaos behind him was in chaos. King Shang of Zhou suddenly died. The two marquis of Qin and Zhao joined the battle to destroy the Zhou Dynasty when the seven marquises were in Lushuilingtai. Xiji Trading Company was always sideways.
The Zhou Dynasty collapsed and the world was in chaos. The two marquises of Qin and Zhao swept over a large number of Donghua population and enriched themselves among their respective marquis countries. The Xiji Trading Company grew vigorously in the midst of these bloody wars and chaos. Finally, it finally stood sideways in the joint meeting of the six major Qi merchants in Lintao City.
However, the Qi merchants who came from Lintao City were still not suppressing the alien Xiji Trading Company at all times. Xiji Trading Company also fought against them with its monopoly on the resources of the Western Wilderness, and they were fighting openly and secretly, or even small wars that were rolled up.
Nearly twenty years ago, Qin Xianghou was not satisfied with Xiji Trading Company's support for the larger and stronger Zhao State, so he instead introduced Yuntai Trading Company, which operated Wei State, to Qin State, and announced that he would expel Xiji Trading Company from Qin State.
The Qi Shang forces east of Rongqi are about to penetrate the west of Rongqi. The monopoly dominance of Xiji Commercial Company is shaking.
At this time, Xiji Trading Company met the ambitious overlord of Zhao State before he succeeded to the throne.
Then there was the Battle of Qianhaiyuan, and then the Xiji Trading Company continued to restore its monopoly position in Qin.
Xiji Trading Company was tied closer to the Zhao people and could no longer be divided. When the overlord changed the law and expeditioned further to the north, he wanted to hone his army into a stronger force and ambitious preparations swept across the entire Donghua. Xiji Trading Company could only support it to the end.
Qin was the first target of the overlord of Zhao, and he was on his way back north.
Xu Le was originally an insignificant little person. The strength of Shuangying Pass is also not enough for the Rouran people, but for the Zhao people.
However, when the three kings of Rouran were completely wiped out in front of the Shuangying Pass, after the magic circle left by King Mu of Zhou in the Shuangying Pass was opened, this concept was completely different! And there were even words that could open the remaining magic circle of the Shuangying Pass, which was the only one in the Zhou royal family who was carrying the true method of the Sun Yao!
The importance of Xu Le and Shuangying Pass suddenly became extraordinary. I don’t know how many people and forces in the entire Donghua world will be heard and rushed to these Shuangying Passes!
Xiji Trading Company immediately took action. Because Du Cheng had some friendship with Xu Le, he was immediately summoned from Qiyin City and pieced together valuable gifts throughout Qin State. As an envoy of Xiji Trading Company, he asked Xu Le for this Shuangying Pass.
Xu Le's so-called Zhao Rengui City Xu Dai's background was no longer cared about at this time, and it was absolutely impossible to be true. But there is one thing. Xu Le would never be from the Shi family! Xiji Trading Company has many eyes, and has been staring at the Shi family!
Since you are not from the Shi family, you can find a way to buy this natural path from Xu Le. Otherwise, a Shuangying Pass protected by the Seven Stars Formation will cause a lot of trouble to the Zhao people going south!
That overlord is about to return...
Although Du Cheng proudly said that there was never anyone behind Qi Shang, and he only chose to support anyone. However, the Nabazhe was the entire Donghua, no matter how powerful the power was, he was deeply afraid or even afraid! As long as the Nabazhe was in one day, the Xiji Trading Company would spare no effort to run for him and do things ahead for him, so as not to let this overlord have the chance to turn against him!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Du Cheng told Xu Le carefully about the ins and outs of Xiji Trading Company. With the general trend of Donghua, the world is about to change. Xu Le and Lai Wenzhen listened carefully and looked at each other.
It seems that the Zhao people invaded Qin is imminent. Everyone really chose a good place to settle down!
After Du Cheng finished his explanation, he drank a big sip of tea with a dry mouth. He smiled affectionately at Xu Le, "Xu Jun. We met Yu Qiyin. At that time, we were just insignificant little people. Historians treated Xu Jun like this. The fiefdom of Xianglin was remote. He sent Xu Jun to the dangerous place in Qiyang. He served the Qinhou lineage, which was stormy, and almost prevented Xu Jun from giving birth to Qiyang. Even if he handed over the Shuangying Pass to Xu Jun, he would not have any kindness. The strength he gave to Xu Jun would be weak. If it weren't for Xu Jun's Shenwu, how could there have been such a great victory?"
He stood up and pointed to the north: "Xu Jun should know the strength of Zhao people. Not to mention the sudden cavalry led by Zhao Hou, even the strong army of four towns in the country cannot resist it! Even the entire Donghua would be trembling before Zhao Hou's military power! Xu Jun is a lucky person, why didn't he turn early? Today, the status of the Shi family in Qin State can be promised to Xu Jun after Zhao Hou's march south!"
Xu Le beat the cases in front of him and never spoke for a long time. Lai Wenzhen didn't say a word, knowing that the boss had to make his own decision on this matter.
Du Cheng waited patiently for a while, and finally couldn't help it. Although he was selected and sent to Lintao's Sixth Books and Calculation Institute to study when he was young, he was considered a confidant of Xiji Trading Company. However, his development in the trading company has not been very smooth. At this age, he is still in Qiyin as a small manager. Because of Xu Le's sudden rise, the victory that shocked Donghua in the Shuangying Pass was selected by the General Office as an envoy to convince Xu Le.
If things are done, the position of the chief manager of Qin is expected to be. Maybe in his lifetime, he will still set foot in Zhongshan General Club! As for joining the joint meeting of the six major trading clubs in Lintao City, this dream is too far away, so Du Cheng dared not think about it.
This decision not only affects Xu Le, a new hero, the fate of his new generation, but also his future!
With a deep affection, Du Cheng couldn't help but lose his usual calm and good demeanor and said sternly: "Jun Xu, make a decision quickly! Don't think that holding the Shuangying Pass is as solid as a god. Don't say it's Zhao people, even our Xiji Trading Company, it's not difficult to win these Shuangying Passes, but you just don't want so many changes to be done in vain!"
Lai Wenzhen's eyes rolled up and he was about to stand up and teach this guy who dared to blow his wings in front of the boss. He beat him up and drove him down the mountain, and the gift he gave was still not returned!
Xu Le reached out and pressed Lai Wenzhen again, and said to Du Cheng: "Du Jun, go down and rest first, I will send someone to settle Du Jun. This matter is not small, I have to think about it carefully, it is not so convenient to make a decision."
Du Cheng lost his composure for a moment, and was a little nervous at first, but seeing Xu Le's tone so soft, he immediately calmed down and returned all his demeanor. He bowed to Xu Le and said, "Please make a decision early."
Xu Le nodded, clapped his hands to summon a Northern Barbarian soldier, and asked him to find Liu Jun and ask Liu Jun to settle Du Cheng and the others. Du Cheng was very conscious and knew that Xu Le must discuss this major event with his confidant. After saluting, he followed the Northern Barbarian soldier.
The room became quiet, and Xu Le knocked on the table, pondering and silent.
Lai Wenzhen waited for a while, and finally couldn't help saying, "Boss, what should I do? I think what this guy said doesn't seem to be fake. The Zhao people should be very strong, anyway, we are not Qin people, let alone Shi family members. If you keep yourself, don't worry about that much... At least you can trick the fifty-year-old craftsman Han Shenjia first?"
Xu Le shook his head: "It's not that easy to get."
Lai Wenzhen wanted to say something, but Xu Le suddenly asked: "Fourth Lao, what is our goal in Donghua?"
Lai Wenzhen was stunned, and Xu Le continued to say to himself: "………… Go home alive."
Lai Wenzhen nodded: "It is precisely because we have to go home alive that we cannot be so stupid as to fight to the death for Qin and Zhao people!"
Xu Le smiled: "This matter is not that simple. I have to wait for someone to decide which side to stand in this big change in Donghua. I always feel that we should be enemies of Zhao."
Lai Wenzhen asked: "Why?"
Xu Le spread his hands: "It's just a feeling when I said it."
Lai Wenzhen thought: "Boss, are you waiting for that national teacher?"
Xu Le nodded.
Lai Wenzhen still asked relentlessly: "Will he come? We don't have much time!"
Xu Le smiled: "He will definitely come, and it will be soon."
Lai Wenzhen snorted and stood up: "Boss, no matter what decision you make, we will listen to you. No matter who the fucking enemy is!"
Xu Le nodded and said nothing. Some things he did not say too much to the fourth brother. For some reason, he always felt that the upcoming changes in the world that would happen in Donghua this time seemed to have something to do with the way home of others. So he had to wait until the national teacher made a decision. And the national teacher was obviously not from the same group as Zhao.
Another thing.
………I don’t want to betray my friends, I really don’t want to.
Suddenly, the sound of knocking on the door sounded again outside the door, and then Wu Daya walked in: "City Lord, sending a message from the foot of the mountain, someone is here to worship."
Lai Wenzhen asked anxiously: "Who?"
Xu Le couldn't help but stand up. Now he waited for the national master to appear and his eyes turned green. Logically speaking, this mysterious guy should have appeared quietly. Why did he swagger at the foot of the mountain to ask for a meeting?
Wu Daya scratched his head and thought for a while: "What is it about Doctor Sun Qiyang?"
The power of Sun Yang and Qinhou’s lineage came so fast! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
