Chapter 422: The 6 Honest Envoys
After hearing Xu Qing's words, Zhao Guozheng showed doubts: "Do you have to classify when you are busy?"
After some conversation, Xu Qing quickly discovered a problem.
That is, Zhao Guozheng made sure that he was not busy during this time, and he was not busy except when he was with his wife at noon and evening.
This girl Long Bing'er is a double scam!
Where is this silly girl?
This is so clever!
The walnuts at home seem to be eaten less.
All made up.
In front of Zhao Guozheng, it was hard to see through Long Binger's small thoughts, so she just coughed and said, "It's true that I just finished my work recently."
Zhao Guozheng envoy said: "Then the uncle of Anding County said about the cooperation with this official..."
Xu Qing said: "Of course it's ready, envoy Lu please follow me."
On the way to the State Chamber of Commerce
Xu Qing and Zhao Guozheng asked as they walked, "Do the officials of your country like Liuli?"
Zhao Guozheng nodded and said: "The Uncle Anding also knows that Buddhism is very prosperous in our Zhao country, and there are even royal temples in Beijing, and colored glaze is one of the seven treasures of Buddhism, so it is naturally very popular. My majesty loves colored glaze very much. , There are also glazed utensils in the imperial study all the year round."
"At the last colored glaze exhibition in your country, I also bought a few colored glaze objects, and I plan to present them to His Majesty when I return home."
This is true. Buddhism is extremely prosperous in Zhao State. Although it does not have the name of a state religion, it has the reality of a state religion.
Not to mention the prosperity of incense in the royal temples in the capital, there are also special funds allocated by the imperial court.
Whenever there is a large-scale sacrifice, Emperor Zhao will also hold it in the royal temple in the capital.
As one of the Seven Treasures of Buddhism, Liuli is popular in Zhao State as a matter of course.
This envoy of Zhao Guozheng is also very smart, and he knows how to do what he likes.
Even if the cooperation with Xu Qing fails in the end, he can offer two glazed objects to please the Emperor Zhao.
At least he can keep his original job. If the glazed artifact can make Emperor Zhao happy, he might be promoted to first-level again.
In the end, I'm afraid that the money for buying glazed objects will go around in the end or Zhao Huang will come out, right?
If nothing else happened, the Emperor Chu would not only get Liuli's money, but also pay a lot of traveling expenses under the rhetoric of Zhao Guozheng.
At that time, this Zhao Guozheng will not only be able to retain his original job, but also make a lot of money.
Xu Qing saw clearly the various careful thoughts of this envoy Lu.
It is outrageous that such a country with serious corruption, redundant officials and military officials still has money?
It's really enviable and jealous.
Xu Qing suddenly understood why Chu State and Zhou State bullied Zhao State so much.
It's not necessarily because Chu and Zhou want to rule the world, but because they are jealous when they see a country that is corrupt, incompetent and yet extremely prosperous!
Why?
Here Chu State and Zhou State worked hard to govern and saved such a small amount of money.
Looking back, hey!
Emperor Zhao is a late bloomer rich second generation.
A prodigal son who thinks about working hard every day, spends money hard every day, but that money seems to have the ability to reproduce, the more he spends, the more he spends.
Just such a master.
If you say you can't be angry, if you say you're not annoying, that's a lie!
Chu Huang and Zhou Huang probably have only one thought in their minds now, and that is:
Let the emperor of Zhao go bankrupt!
So fucking annoying!
...
The two walked into the State Chamber of Commerce, and after arriving at the courtyard where Xu Qing worked, Xu Qing led Envoy Zhao Guozheng into his office.
There is a bed in the office.
Sometimes I have a hard time going to work, and when I am tired, I will lie on it and rest for a while. Of course, there are not many such cases, especially in the summer, and I have never had a serious class for a day.
Xu Qing pulled out a box from under the bed, which he had prepared long ago.
Envoy Zhao Guozheng looked at the box that Xu Qing pulled out. Although Xu Qing already had guesses in his mind based on Xu Qing's questioning on the road, he still asked, "This is..."
Xu Qing opened the box, and suddenly a whole box of colored glaze appeared in front of him, so bright that it almost blinded Zhao Guozheng's eyes.
Envoy Zhao Guozheng looked at the shining colored glaze in the box. Although he was prepared in his heart, he was still shocked, and murmured, "How come there are so many... high-grade colored glaze..."
Xu Qing looked at Zhao Guozheng and asked: "I don't know if this box of colored glaze is enough, is it making my lord rich?"
Zhao Guozheng looked at Xu Qing and said, "Is your country really going to use this box of colored glaze in exchange for Zhao Guo giving up the alliance?"
Xu Qing looked at Zhao Guozheng and asked, "Is it not enough?"
Zhao Guozheng made his belly tremble, and said quickly: "Enough is enough, but why does Chu State have so many high-grade colored glazes? And it's so generous?"
Xu Qing sighed and said: "There is no way, spend money to eliminate disasters, this box of colored glaze, after returning to the country, we don't care how much we hand in, how much to keep, how much to give as gifts, as long as your country and Zhou country If there is no alliance, then this box of colored glaze will be arranged by Lu Zhengshi, how about it?"
Zhao Guozheng looked at Xu Qing, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Mr. Anding County, if Lu goes back this time, Zhao Guo and Zhou Guo will definitely not form an alliance!"
Xu Qing looked at Zhao Guozheng with a serious face, and said with a smile: "I believe in Lu Zhengshi. By the way, soon a batch of Liuli will arrive in Zhao State under the secret escort of the National Chamber of Commerce. This is also the case of our Chu State. I want to sell the last batch of colored glaze in your country for a good price in order to use it as military funds."
"There will be a battle between Zhou State and Chu State soon. If the military resources are insufficient, the morale of the army will be unstable. However, Zhao Guoguo is too far away from the capital of Chu State, and the State Chamber of Commerce is beyond reach. Can you please give us some help at that time? The caravan of the National Chamber of Commerce provides the necessary protection, and when the time comes, 30% of the capital sold by this batch of glass will be owned by Lu Zhengshi, what does Lu Zhengshi think?"
Zhao Guozheng heard Xu Qing's words, frowned and said: "It is possible, but it is enough for Lu to take half of the profit for this trip."
Xu Qing was slightly taken aback, there are still fools in the world who don't want money?
Zhao Guozheng said with a blank expression: "Although the Lu family in Zhao State can't be compared with any century-old family, they still have some power after all. Providing some help so that your country can sell Liuli is nothing more than a small effort, half of the profit is enough , if the Uncle An Ding refuses to allow it, we should find someone else to do this business."
Hearing this, Xu Qing had no choice but to say: "Then it's a pleasure to cooperate. It's a pleasure to cooperate with someone like Lu Zhengshi. Our National Chamber of Commerce is booming now, and it will involve Zhao Guo's business in the future. It is inevitable to cooperate with Lu Zhengshi." , I also ask Lu Zhengshi not to be annoyed when the time comes."
Only now did Lu Zhengshi show a smile again on his face and said: "Where is it, the uncle of Anding County is serious, serious."
Lu Zhengshi also understood why Xu Qing did what he did. He was clearly afraid that he would take the money and not do anything. What he said just now was telling himself that Chu State still has benefits to give, so don't just focus on the petty gains in front of you. .
But this county uncle of Anding obviously underestimated his reputation.
It is true that Lu Heng is greedy for money and loves power.
But he still knows the truth of using people's money to eliminate disasters for others.
Who is the Uncle Anding looking down on with this move?
Who doesn't know that Zhao country is the best country for doing business?
What is the first point of business?
Be honest!
He naturally understands this too.
A profiteer's business will not last long, and the small gains taken today will be a big hidden danger in the future, and you may lose something in the future...
