Zhao Kuo sat alone in the lobby drinking, looking very happy, and occasionally hummed strange songs like "Down with Feudalism".

Xu Li appeared in front of Zhao Kuo and whispered: "Master, you have sent Xu Li down and arranged your accommodation."

Zhao Kuo nodded and smiled, "Uncle Xu, thank you for your hard work."

Xu Li smiled and said, "Thank you hard but not hard, but I am a little confused. Guo Zong is just a businessman. Is it necessary to try my best to win him over?"

Zhao Kuo smiled, and smelled alcohol from his mouth, and said proudly: "You don't understand, Uncle Xu.

It is because everyone only regards Guo Zong as a businessman, but his ability is more than one businessman, so there is a need to win him over."

After a pause, Zhao Kuo suddenly smiled and said, "To be honest, I have actually told Guo Zong that I want to change the dynasty."

With a bang, Xu Li sat down on the ground.

Panicked.

The next moment, Xu Li suddenly jumped up, grabbed Zhao Kuo's shoulder and shook it hard: "Master, why are you so confused!!!"

No king can allow such things as changing dynasties.

As long as this matter is spread, Zhao Kuo will lose his head every minute, and it is definitely the type of person who will lose his head together.

Xu Li felt that Zhao Kuo was definitely drunk.

Zhao Kuo shook his head and said seriously: "No, Uncle Xu, listen to me, I didn't drink too much."

Xu Li felt the smell of alcohol that sprayed on his face, and turned around and left without saying a word: "Master, wait a moment, I will kill Guo Zong."

However, after Xu Li took two steps, Zhao Kuo's cry was already ringing: "Uncle Xu, stop!"

Zhao Kuo put down his wine glass and explained helplessly: "Uncle Xu, I'm really not drunk.

The reason I told Guo Zong about this was just to win the trust of him."

Xu Li turned around and looked suspicious: "Does the Lord really feel that just one word can make Guo Zong stand on our side?"

Guo Zong has been a member of King Zhao for the past few decades. If Zhao Kuo really thought so, Xu Li would definitely kill Guo Zong as soon as possible, and then take Chi Youjun and Zhao Kuo to the State of Qi together.

Zhao Kuo shook his head and said, "Of course it is not my words that can impress Guo Zong, but my interests - and my determination to change the dynasty!"

Interest, this is easy to understand.

Qi's smuggling route can make Guo Zong's personal pockets bulge to the greatest extent, so that Guo Zong does not need to work for the Zhao royal family for vain.

But how do you explain this determination to change dynasties?

Zhao Kuo smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, don't you understand yet?"

Guo Zong is a businessman.

As a businessman, a famous businessman in the world, does he care about wealth?

He actually doesn't care so much. Making money may be more of a habit for him. Taking risks in opening up smuggling lines is more of a way to leave something for his descendants in case something happens."

"So, what does Guo Zong really care about?

That is what every businessman desires after he has money - social status."

"Uncle Xu, come and tell me, what kind of people in this world have the most social status?"

Xu Li seemed to have understood: "Of course he is an official, and he is also a noble!"

Zhao Kuo laughed: "That's right.

Guo Zong is already very rich, at least in the eyes of others.

Then Guo Zong may also need money now, but what he needs most is actually social status, the title of nobles and officials, and the official position that everyone looks up to! But can the king give him these things?"

Xu Li shook his head and said, "Of course not.

If the king was willing to give Guo Zong a title and official position, then Guo Zong would have had it long ago."

Zhao Kuo slapped his thigh and smiled and said, "Yes."

Because in the eyes of the king, Guo Zong is just a puppet used by the king to secretly make money, and it is not worthy of the king's high-ranking officials or social status to Guo Zong."

When Zhao Kuo said this, his face suddenly became serious: "But... I can give it to you.

Because what I want to do is change the dynasty, what can I not give?"

"Think about it, since I can give Guo Zongqi's smuggling route to make his personal pockets full, and give Guo Zong enough social status in the future to act as the founding minister, then why should Guo Zong betray me?"

Xu Li was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but say, "What if Guo Zong and the Lord thought differently, he was loyal to the king?"

Zhao Kuo laughed: "Okay, assuming he is indeed loyal to the king, and then he informed the king of the matter of changing the dynasty. Do you think the king will believe it?"

Xu Li was stunned again.

Although King Zhao repeatedly suppressed Zhao Kuo, the methods of King Zhao were essentially just trying to train Zhao Kuo to become an obedient lackey under King Zhao's command.

If King Zhao really doubted Zhao Kuo's loyalty, Zhao Kuo would have died hundreds of times.

If you take a step back, who would doubt the loyalty of a general who won the Battle of Changping for Zhao?

Impossible.

"Did you understand?"

Zhao Kuo opened his hands and smiled, "So, it's completely fine to tell Guo Zong about this matter, and he can even give Guo Zong a hope!"

In this era, the gap between the four classes of scholars, peasants, industry and commerce still exists. Although merchants have a wealth far exceeding that of farmers and craftsmen, they are still at the bottom of the social contempt chain. Moreover, this contempt is passed down from generation to generation, and no matter how rich you have, you cannot change it.

The nobles of Zhao State would not allow a lowly businessman like Guo Zong to be promoted to his own class. As a representative of the noble class, King Zhao naturally had to adapt to the intentions of these nobles of Zhao State.

Therefore, only Zhao Kuo, who wanted to change the dynasty, could give Guo Zong and his descendants such hope! Xu Li finally understood it completely and lowered his head in conscience: "The lord is as wise as the sea, and the ministers can never reach it."

Zhao Kuo laughed and said, "Uncle Xu, you are just a mess when you care about it."

Go and take good care of Guo Zong and send him out of the house tomorrow, and there will be no problems."

The next morning.

Guo Zong left the manor in a carriage and sat in the carriage. The Zhao businessman's face was extremely serious, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After leaving the manor for about a quarter of an hour, Guo Zong's carriage was suddenly stopped.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the eunuch from Zhao State ordered Zhuxian to enter the carriage.

Guo Zong did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly saluted to Zhuxian.

You should know that although the real owner of Guo Zong's business is King Zhao, of course, King Zhao cannot pay attention to these things in person. He has always been responsible for dealing with Guo Zong and supervising Guo Zong. It is the eunuch of Zhao, the eunuch of Zhao.

Miao Xian went straight to the point: "Guo Zong, let me tell you about your meeting with Zhao Kuo yesterday."
