Chapter 153 The battle of chang ping (8) knows that, in addition to being beautiful, there is no advantage in practical "Sex," and he believes in the business of building trust step by step
Even liars start small
Therefore, it was not so much that huang xuan completely conquered the Zhao kingdom monarchs and ministers present with his miraculous performance, but rather that 10,000 stone of grain conquered xiao chengwang
He generously gave Huang Xuan thousands of acres of land, a house, and hundreds of servants
It sounded like a lot of things, but a hundred acres of land could only be considered a middle farm in this era
Huang Xuan did not expect himself to wait for crops to grow in the fields
As for the servants, the Zhao kingdom boys were either on the battlefield or dead on the battlefield, so other than an old man in his 50s, All the others were women and children
The so-called servant was actually a slave
When Huang Xuan came home at night, the house had been tidied up in an orderly manner
The old man kneeled at the door with a hundred or ten servants and held the deed high above his head, saying," welcome to your return
" The house was just to the left of the palace, and at the end of it was the center of handan city
Huang Xuan was not interested in these contracts
Instead, he picked up the old man and said," what's your name
Who else is in the family
" The old man was quite frightened by Huang Xuan's courtesy and said with trepidation," the old slave has no last name, no first name, no one at home
"" Then your name is Huang Xi
" Huang Xuan let go of his hand and said," clean up a house for me, then come over and I'll talk to you
"" Yes
" Although Huang Xuan did not have a title yet, it was still a glorious thing for the servant to be given a surname
Huang Xi quickly responded and sent two low-brow maids to announce huang to the room
He also handed the deed to Huang Xuan and knelt down to salute
The master bedroom was a suite of more than 30 square meters, and the outer room was a small room for the servants
The two maids were busy making the bed for Huang Xuan and pouring water
Huang Xuan walked around the zhan guo bedroom curiously
There was no table, no stool, and the cup was bronze
It smelled like metal
After a while, Huang Xi came in with his body bent down and kneeling
He had never seen anything like this in Huang Xuan's house before
He smiled bitterly and said," get up and sit there
" Huang Xi answered, but he still knelt down
Huang Xuan stopped talking and said," do you know where the market in Handan is
"" It's in the market outside the east gate of the city
"" But cattle, horses, pigs and sheep are being sold
" Huang Xi thought for a moment and said," Junshang, most of the cattle are from the country, and most of the horses have been collected in the past two years
Some people are selling the pig
" As he spoke, he looked up carefully at Huang Xuan and said," if Junshang is thinking about spring plowing at the end of the year, he can borrow horses and cows from the mansion
" The nag horse is the horse that carries the weight of the farm, and the pig is the pig, the so-called chicken, dolphin, dog and pig
" Junshang sounds good
" Huang xuan smiled and said," I have some food
You will go to the market tomorrow and sell it
Then you will pick up the healthy animals and bring them home
You may do this well
" At home, the head of the family is usually called jun
Outside, the name" jun" would only take effect if it was approved by the" royal meeting" of the Zhao kingdom
Famous figures such as meng xianjun and xin lingjun were all famous figures
But with Huang Xuan's head, he couldn't understand the difference
After all, they were from two eras
In fact, even if two doctorate professors were really sent from the 21st century, apart from being able to call out the positions of central officials in some countries, the rest of them were blinded
The ancient books were almost burned, and the only thing they knew was pitiful
Huang Xi only dared to look at Huang Xuan, then quickly lowered his head and said," yes
" He answered first, then lowered his head and said in a low voice," if Junshang wants to buy a lot of livestock, he can call the merchants in the market to see
They all have a lot of cattle and horses
" Zhao kingdom now runs livestock and food business, most of them are businessmen from different countries
Although qi refused to lend food to yue because of the diplomatic vacillation of the Zhao kingdom, neither qi nor chu would prohibit merchants from trading in zhao, and the rise in food prices during this period of time had even accelerated the speed of businessmen
Patting his head, he said," then go find some people tomorrow
I'll talk about it after I ask
" He reckoned that the Zhao kingdom monarchs and ministers would have new military operations in the next two days, and he did not have much time to spare, so he urged," go early tomorrow morning, don't waste time
" Huang Xi immediately lowered his head to the ground and said," don't worry, Junshang
" Grain for livestock was the warring states version of oil for food
At this time, many of the means of production belonged to the country, especially cattle
Of course, the big landlords always had some cattle and horses in their homes, but not many were willing to sell them
However, the Zhao kingdom was close to the huns, and there was always no shortage of livestock
The most meat and food eaten by the people of the warring states was still dogs
Until the han dynasty, the butcher referred to the dog slayer
However, Huang Xuan was not picky about anything
R001 was an entire plane, and according to lu min and Shi Yu, their r001 sphere of influence should have covered a lot of planes
There were so many people, so someone always ate dog meat
They brought 12,000 tons of grain, one stone per 30 kilograms, which was 400,000 stones
Not to mention the corn spices and other things, if they were sold on the basis of grain, this would be 36m yuan
They could buy 1800 cows or 18,000 pigs
It was slightly more than 20 % of the price he paid for food, and it would be a loss if it was used to exchange for cattle
Judging by the price of food, Zhao kingdom's sword currency could almost reach the ratio of 1: 1 with rmb, but from the perspective of circulation, it was completely different
In the last 120 years of the warring states period, the total amount of copper issued by each country was only 28 billion yuan, 36 million yuan
It was enough to make it into the rich list of zhao
Of course, he wouldn't have taken out so much food at once, but the market was originally the most sensitive machine
From the next morning, Huang Xuan suddenly realized that he was in the market again
It's really a market
Merchants of qi, merchants of yan, envoys of chu, and even agents of xiongnu
In the past few years, the large scale grain trade had almost stopped, and the sudden appearance of so much food was simply exciting
Soon, Zhao Wang's emissary arrived
He smiled secretly, pretended to be busy, and said coldly," where am I free to see your king now
" The envoy's eyes widened, and all the merchants present stopped
He looked at Huang Xuan again, but said with a smile," my king has something important to discuss
Xuan Zi only cares about the audience
I'll help you clean it up later
"" Then you all listen to Huang Xi
" Huang Xuan shouted and said," Huang Xi, they are all your men
" The face of the envoy and his subordinates immediately collapsed
Zhao wang stroked pei yu at his waist, his face as calm as water
All the officials in the palace were thinking about each other, either lowering their heads to meditate, or closing their eyes to recuperate, or stroking their beards, or outside the objects of their mind wandering
In the huge palace, there was only the sound of breathing, like a group of full goldfish
The sound of the cowhide stomping on the ground sounded
Only the guards before the imperial guards had such equipment
Incorruptible's eyes, which were originally closed, opened wide
As a general, he believed in god and did not believe that ghosts and gods would really appear, which was somewhat like the belief of later generations, but it was much simpler and simpler
But Huang Xuan had obviously given him a huge impact, especially when the Zhao kingdom was alive and dead
Strictly speaking, Incorruptible could only be considered an excellent general
His ability was not commensurate with his reputation
Therefore, even if Huang Xuan told him that Bai Qi was opposite him, what they were doing, what they were going to do, and what they were going to do in such a disadvantageous situation, it was difficult for him to do anything
The battle of chang ping is a typical national strategic battle
When the strategic intention is achieved, no matter how many battles win, it can't be compensated
Therefore, at this time of the Zhao kingdom, perhaps only god can save it
Zhao Wang's hand was caressing faster and faster until the jade pendant was hot, before she stopped in shock
" Your majesty
" Huang Xuan's voice was wide and clear, as if he was answering a question in class
Zhao wang calmed down
In front of the" businessman" who was even smaller than himself, he lost his inherent superiority, which made him extremely uncomfortable, but he had to endure it
Looking absent-mindedly at the floor under the dragon chair, zhao wangdan said in a low voice," Ping Yuan Jun, explain to Xuan Zi
"" Ping Yuan Jun Zhao Sheng
" Huang Xuan asked Lorraine uncertainly
He had seen this man in the documents
" That's right, the fourth young master of the warring states
" Lorraine gave a positive answer
Ping Yuan Jun was at least 50 years old, but he had dark hair and a handsome face
He was king huiwen's younger brother, and now king zhao's uncle, mao, recommended himself to be the gatekeeper to the chu kingdom after the war in Chang ping
This was a legendary figure, who was dismissed three times and recovered three times
He was one of the few people in the warring states who could be known
He had never come to regular meetings, and Huang Xuan had not seen him yesterday
Zhao Sheng sat on his knees gracefully on the table, bowed and said," we think your judgment is correct, so I would like to ask you how to solve your current predicament
" It was very simple and direct, but it was a solution to the problem
In some cases, this attitude, made by the superior, did have a good impression on the people
His eyes met with a nod and a smile, which made him feel a little embarrassed
" In the current situation, besides the Zhao Jun has run out of food, both sides have suffered similar losses
In my opinion, solving the siege of Chang ping is the first priority
" Saying is equivalent to not saying, a incisive chinese answer
Ping Yuan Jun still said modestly," how do we solve the siege of Chang ping
" Shaking his head, he said," I don't know anything about military affairs, but I can send tens of thousands of stones of grain to the Zhao Kuo army
The rest will depend on your efforts
" Although ten thousand stones could only feed 400,000 troops a day, it would have a great effect on alleviating the food shortage
Moreover, if it was saved enough, it would not be impossible to persist for a few more days
" Well, thank you, Xuan Zi
" It seemed that Huang Xuan's answer had long been expected by the Zhao kingdom junchen, but zhao wangdan still beamed and said," so, how can Xuan Zi reward you
" He still couldn't say the word trade
With a smile on his face, he raised three fingers and said," you can send food to the Zhao Kuo army, but there are three requirements
"" Please speak
" Ping Yuan Jun sat up very seriously
" First, the business of the Zhao kingdom below cannot be affected
"" Of course, noble servants can trade freely in Eastern city, but the number of cattle sold and sold is limited
" Huang Xuan's deal, to some extent, had great benefits in alleviating the food shortage of the Zhao kingdom
After all, no matter how delicious the pork was, it could not endure hunger
In history, after the end of the war in Chang ping, zhao territory was famished
" Forget it if you don't farm cows
" Huang Xuan liked to compete in negotiations
He put down a finger and said," secondly, I want to make a deal with your country
"" Oh
"" I know that, including Ping Yuan Jun himself, there are a lot of livestock, horses, and silks in the house
If you are willing to exchange food for them, it will also alleviate your country's crisis
I hope Ping Yuan Jun can set an example
However, whether the price on the market is rising or falling, the price of grain is 90 yuan per stone, the price of cattle and horses is 20,000 yuan, and the price of sheep and swine is 2,000 yuan
Is that okay
" When there was more food on the market, the price would naturally drop, but for the Zhao kingdom, such things were fair
Moreover, it was unknown whether Ping Yuan Jun and others understood this economic law, so Zhao Sheng immediately lowered his face and said," okay
" When Bai Qi had killed all the zhao people in Chang ping and besieged Handan, Ping Yuan Jun had generously donated money to the garrison and made concubines sew up the soldiers
To Zhao Sheng, who had a better reputation, it was just an equal trade, not much
What's more, to alleviate Zhao Kuo's danger, we need to send more troops
These all need food, and Huang Xuan's suggestion is beneficial to both sides
At this time, he raised his middle finger and said to the Zhao kingdom junchen," the last one, as a reward for helping zhao, if you take back the upper party, or even enter the qin territory, you must have the priority to buy all the items
" Two or three sentences explained what a preemptive right was
Zhao wangdan clapped his hand on a few times and said," I will let you
" Nothing is easier to sell than future interests
