Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 40 Strange goods can make a living

"I just saw a woman." In the room belonging to Zi Nu, Yang Ming looked at Zi Nu who stood leaning against the window and showed off her almost perfect figure in a perfect way.

"Huh? What kind of woman can be so missed by our leader." Zi Nu asked pretending to be surprised.

"A very special woman."

"What's so special?"

"There is something abnormal about her." Yang Ming pointed at the head of the snow girl in front of him with his finger.

"Are you sure she's not normal here?" Zi Nu said through gritted teeth. A ferocious look appeared from the ends of her eyes, and the soft flesh on her cheeks trembled playfully, giving people a feeling of being fierce and fierce.

Of course she knew who Yang Ming was talking about, and it was precisely because of this that she was so angry. Although she knew that Yang Ming's words were more likely just to tease her, Yang Ming said that he was pointing at Xue Nu's head and saying that there was something wrong there. Normal, how could she not have emotions.

Isn't it normal for a little girl to have a little temper?

"If you think about it carefully, it shouldn't be right? I can't remember. I only remember that the woman was very beautiful, extremely beautiful." Under Zi Nu's fierce gaze, Yang Ming changed his words in time.

"You put it like that, I want to see that woman." Zi Nu said with a serious face.

"Chichi." The snow girl had laughed at this time. Although she was young, she was also a thoughtful person. Regarding the scene in front of her, she could also see the interesting aspects in it, especially the current purple girl. In the past, She is obviously such a smart person, but she acts like a little girl at this time.

No, it's more childish than a little girl. Anyway, I won't be so childish. Yuki-onna added to herself in her mind.

But the next moment, Xue Nu's little face bulged because she found that neither Yang Ming nor Zi Nu seemed to have heard her laughter and were indifferent.

The snow girl who just felt that she was being ignored couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied and resentful. She was also a naive little girl, even if she didn't think so.

"The transaction with the Sheriff's Mansion is not going well?" Yang Ming asked.

"Did you see it?" Zi Nu said without surprise.

"You don't seem to have any intention of hiding your thoughts in front of me, so it's not difficult to tell. But, what kind of difficulty did you encounter in the magistrate's mansion? What made you so depressed?" Yang Ming asked.

"This problem is not big, but there is no possibility of solving it at all. Who would have thought that the county governor's mansion would have no money? Alas, who would have thought that the county governor's mansion would be so poor. You know, the taxes of the three counties in the northern border of Zhao State are all After being integrated into the county governor's mansion, there are three counties, a place larger than the entire South Korea." Zi Nu said distressedly.

"No money? This problem is not easy to solve, at least it is not something we can solve." Yang Ming also smiled bitterly.

"The Sheriff's Mansion can provide 30,000 gold, and our pig iron is worth 40,000 gold. If we sell it to the Sheriff's Mansion, we will lose 10,000 gold, which is a headache, but it is obviously impossible to transport it back, not to mention the freight. , it’s just that it’s hard to find a customer who can afford such a sum of money." Zi Nu said sadly.

"I suspect that the people in the Sheriff's Mansion have convinced us that they are deliberately lowering the price." Thinking of the embarrassment she encountered when she was in the Sheriff's Mansion, Zi Nu couldn't help but bite her teeth secretly. That guy named Sima Shang is really... Too difficult.

"The pig iron can only be sold to the county governor's house, and there are no other options?" Yang Ming asked.

"Yes, there is no choice, so I suspect that the county magistrate's office is not short of money, but it just doesn't want to spend so much money." Zi Nu said and looked at Yang Ming expectantly, as if she wanted to get some advice from Yang Ming.

"Since we can't make money anymore, maybe we can change our thinking." Yang Ming pondered.

"Is there any other way? Let me declare first that it is impossible to transport the pig iron back. The losses will be even greater if it is transported back."

Yang Ming's words gave Zi girl hope, but Zi girl didn't dare to expect too much about this hope. After all, she had been troubled for a long time. Can Yang Ming come up with a solution in such a short period of time?

"Since we are going to lose money, then we simply won't make any money." Yang Ming said.

"Not making money? What you said is easy. If it weren't for making money, I would be in Xinzheng now, staying at home and living happily with my sisters, instead of braving the cold and traveling thousands of miles away. In the northern border of the State of Zhao, we fought for our lives many times on the road." Zinu raised her eyebrows as she spoke, and even pointed her finger at Yang Ming. The suffocation she had suffered in the governor's mansion was now spent on Yang Ming.

"I wonder if you have ever heard of the story about rare things that can be lived in?" Yang Ming held the finger that Zi Nu pointed at him and said.

"What kind of rare thing can you live in? What kind of story is this?" Zi Nu asked in surprise, but she didn't show any reaction to Yang Ming's hand holding hers, and just let Yang Ming hold it.

"This story may not be said like this now. After all, it has only been more than ten years since it happened." Yang Ming held Zi Nu's cold fingers, and followed that finger to move Zi Nu's entire hand even further. It's in the palm of your hand.

Under the curious gaze of Zi Nu, Yang Ming continued: "This story begins in Zhaodu twenty years ago. Twenty years ago, a big businessman appeared in Zhaodu. His caravan traveled between seven and seven years. He is a real big businessman between countries, and his wealth is so rich that even the kings of the seven kingdoms would be tempted."

"You mean Lu Buwei?" After hearing some of the information Yang Ming mentioned, Zi Nu immediately thought of one person.

Speaking of the most successful businessman in the world, if we push the time forward four hundred years, the most successful businessman in the world is Qi Prime Minister Guan Zhong who assisted Duke Huan of Qi and the princes of Liuhe to dominate the world. If we push the time forward two hundred years, the most successful businessman is It was Tao Zhu Gong Fan Li who assisted King Gou Jian of Yue to fight for his courage and conquered Wu with three thousand Yue Jia, becoming the last hegemon in the Spring and Autumn Period.

And if we talk about the most successful businessman in the world in the past thirty years, it is none other than Lu Buwei, the current Prime Minister of Qin.

"Yes, it is Lu Buwei. At that time, Lu Buwei's family fortune in Zhao State was about the same if not millions. But he also knew very well that he had already achieved the limit of what he could achieve by doing business. If he wanted to make a breakthrough, he could only rely on doing business. It’s no longer possible.” Yang Ming said.

In Zi Nu's contemplation, Yang Ming continued: "At this time, if Lu Buwei wants to surpass the limit that a businessman can achieve, he must change the traditional business concept. At this time, a person appears in front of him."

"Are you talking about the former king of Qin, the father of Qin Wangzheng, Ying Zichu?" Zinu, who had a deep chest, immediately understood what Yang Ming was talking about.

"Yes, after Lu Buwei has done all the profitable businesses in the world, he thought of a real wonder." Yang Mingdao.

As Yang Ming told it, a story well known to the world took on another layer of meaning.

"The former king of Qin is a rare thing, and the governor's mansion is also a rare thing? Yang Ming, do you want to say this?" Zi Nu said thoughtfully.
