Chapter 15 Qian Chen

The next morning, Ye Zhao was dressed under Xiner's service and his personal guard came to report that there was a wealthy merchant in Sui County, Qian Mo asked for a meeting.

"Please come in." Ye Zhao smiled after hearing the personal guard's report.

"Young master, maid packs up first." Xin'er said obediently.

"Well, as soon as possible, this place won't be delayed for too long." Ye Zhao nodded and said.

"Here."

Qian Mo didn't look like a rich businessman, but like a well-educated man. Facing Ye Zhao, he gave a slight tribute: "I thanked the county magistrate for taking shelter."

"Brother Qian doesn't have to be too polite. When you go out, you will always have some difficulties. There is nothing to worry about." Ye Zhao smiled and said, "Brother Qian is going to Suiyang?"

"Not bad." Qian Mo nodded and said, "I've been away from home for half a year, and I'm quite worried."

"It's just right. I wonder if Brother Qian is willing to walk with me?" Ye Zhao smiled and said, "I don't know much about the customs of the people of Suiyang. I just happened to ask Brother Qian for advice along the way."

"If the county magistrate does not like being despised from his lower family background, he is willing to lead the way for the county magistrate." Qian Mo said with a smile.

"It's so good. As for the words of origin, don't say anything else. Ye has never seen his origin." Ye Zhao pulled Qian Mo's hand and said, "I don't know if Brother Qian has the word "全"? He said this so hard."

"Qian Mo, whose courtesy name is Zhicai." Qian Mo said with a smile.

"Lord, you're ready to go on the road." Guan Hai walked in and said to Ye Zhao.

"Let's go, Brother Zhicai will be with me." Ye Zhao pulled Qian Mo and walked out.

Originally, Ye Zhao just wanted to ask about the situation in Suiyang, but as the two of them walked along, Ye Zhao felt more and more that the money was extraordinary.

As a disciple of Cai Yong, Ye Zhao can be considered a rich student. With the accumulation of knowledge and Ye Zhao's knowledge, among the people he has seen since his rebirth, except for Cai Yong who can surpass him in terms of knowledge, Qian Mo in front of him is the first person who makes him feel the same.

From the beginning of customs and customs to the later conversation between the two was no longer limited to Suiyang. Qian Mo was far superior to his peers in terms of depth and quick thinking, especially his views on many issues were very meticulous, which gave Ye Zhao the first time he had an understanding of the wise men of this era.

Moreover, the money was not left famous in later generations, perhaps because of luck, but what kind of style are those wise men who have left their reputation in later generations such as Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Sima Yi?

"Brother Zhicai." Ye Zhao suddenly turned his head and looked at Qian Mo and said, "Brother has unparalleled talents, why are you willing to be a wealthy businessman?"

It’s not that Ye Zhao looked down on the rich merchants, but that the limitations of productivity in this era restricted the development of the merchants. Ye Zhao felt that such a person should not be just a rich merchant. Even if he was unwilling to join the broken ship of the Han Dynasty, with his ability, he could make his name in the scholars. Even if he was not a noble family, he might not be unable to establish a noble family in the future.

"Time is life." Qian Mo shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"It's Zhao Menglang." Ye Zhao's expression relaxed when he heard this: "It's just that Brother Zhicai's talent is only for a merchant, which is too incompetent."

"Mr. Ye thinks this merchant is useless? Why did I hear that when Magistrate Ye was in Yan, merchants gathered in northern Hebei under the command of the county magistrate?" Qian Mo smiled and looked at Ye Zhao.

"I have never said that merchants are useless. The circulation of materials and goods can be entirely dependent on these merchants. However, the output of the people is limited. Although merchants are useful, they are unlikely to be of great use with the current national conditions." Ye Zhao shook his head and said.

No matter how powerful the merchants of this era are, they will never be able to have a wealthy figure like Chen Wansan. This is the limitation of the times.

"The county magistrate is high." Qian Mo looked at Ye Zhao in surprise: "It's not like those corrupt scholars who regard business as a cheap business."

"So Brother Zhicai regards Zhao as that corrupt scholar?" Ye Zhao said with a smile.

"Mr. Bo Yi is so a disciple, I don't know if he should be happy." Qian Mo did not answer, but just smiled.

In this era, the circle of scholars and wealthy families was not big. In addition, Cai Yong was a great scholar of the times. Although Ye Zhao was not famous, he was not unnamed in this circle.

"I must be happy. My master is not as pedantic as Brother Zhicai thought." Ye Zhao said with a smile. He found that Qian Mo in front of him seemed a little extreme, and his tone was not as respectful to such great scholars as Cai Yong as other people Ye Zhao saw.

"Maybe." Qian Mo did not talk about this issue anymore. Both sides understood a little. After the next conversation avoided some taboo things, the atmosphere became warm.

Qian Mo had extraordinary knowledge and insightful insights. Ye Zhao was a man in his two lives, and his encounters were rare in the world. He purely discussed some knowledge and insights, but the two had a great conversation.

As for some so-called advanced concepts, Ye Zhao found that many of the concepts of later generations had taken shape a long time ago. Perhaps it is okay to say it and fool ordinary people, but it is impossible for a wise man like Qian Mo to say something that shocked the other party instantly.

Don’t say anything about breaking the feudal cycle. This idea appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, restricting the power of the monarch and creating a great common man. These things are said to ordinary people, saying to you as a madman, and saying to these wise men is just an unrealistic way to pick up people’s teeth.

Therefore, Ye Zhao rarely talks about these things with the other party. He occasionally mentions one or two sentences, but only talks in the form of discussion.

On the contrary, Qian Mo was very interested in Ye Zhao's idea of ​​combining workers, farmers and merchants with each other. The journey of nearly a hundred miles was discussed by the two, but they didn't feel that it was too far. When the sun set and dusk, the city of Suiyang was already close to him.

"Brother Zhicai, aren't you really going with me?" After passing the city gate, he was about to part ways. Ye Zhao looked at Qian Mo sending an invitation again. This was his third time.

He does not want to give up such a talent, and can be 100% confirmed that the person in front of him who has not been famous in history has the talent that is not inferior to any top strategist of this era.

"Brother Xiuming has seen too far. You and I are all living in the present moment. It may not be a good thing to see too far." Qian Mosa smiled, without rejecting or accepting, and turned around and left with his family and money.

"Master, what does he mean?" Guan Hai looked at Ye Zhao in confusion.

"That's what it means." Ye Zhao looked at Qian Mo's back: "Yue, I want to know everything about him. During his time in Suiyang, I only need to do this."
