Qin Dynasty snare people
Chapter 413 Starlight in the Night Sky
The carriage drove slowly through the main road of Xianyang City, the snow squeaked under the wheels, and the breeze carried snowflakes.
People were coming and going on the streets.
Many children wearing coats shuttled among them. Some made snowmen and some threw snowballs at each other, which made family members and passers-by laugh. They seemed to be happy for the carefree childhood of these children.
Coupled with the ancient city of Xianyang covered in snow, it looks like a slowly unfolding picture scroll.
Worth remembering.
Perhaps for ordinary people, having enough food and clothing, not being affected by war, and having children and grandchildren in good health is the greatest happiness in the world.
There are always a very small number of people who are ambitious in this world.
Even in the warlike Qin State, not everyone likes war.
But everyone understands that if you want to avoid being beaten, you can only be strong enough to beat others, but sacrifice is inevitable.
The Qin State has gradually emerged from the suffering of nearly annihilation, and naturally understands how precious life is today.
The kings of Qin in the past generations also passed down their will and kept their mission in mind from generation to generation.
When Luo Yan's carriage passed by, the families of these children quickly watched their children and prevented them from running around to prevent them from hitting the nobles in the carriage.
Seeing this scene, Luo Yan also lowered the car curtain and did not continue to look at it.
"Where were you talking about?"
Luo Yan reached out and interrupted Li Si who was still talking, and smiled apologetically.
He was attracted by the snowman built by two children just now, and didn't pay attention to Li Si's words for a while.
I was also thinking about what kind of snowman I would build with Yan Lingji when I go back later.
Compared to this matter.
The things Li Si said were less attractive to him, and it was inevitable that he would be distracted.
After all, it’s easy to be in a daze on a snowy day.
In fact, the main reason is that Luo Yan has a lot on his mind, and the matter with Luo Wang has not been completely dealt with yet.
The key is Lu Buwei's attitude.
Luowang is also called Tianluo and Diwang. Tianluo is the fourth level of killers, while Luowang is the lower four levels. They are responsible for the intelligence of the seven countries.
At that time, Lu Buwei was interested in Luo Wang's underground network information, and the killer was second.
In recent years, the scope of the ground net has become wider and wider, which is all due to Lu Buwei's control.
same.
Luo Yan is also more interested in the underground network than Tian Luo.
After all, the strongest group of killers in Tianluo belong to him, and there is only one Zhanri jumping around. It's fine if he doesn't show up. If he does, it depends on Luo Yan's attitude.
Li Si was not angry at Luo Yan's distraction and patiently said it again:
"I just mentioned the top ten wealthy businessmen of Qin State. They have all arrived in Xianyang and are waiting at Zuixian Residence."
"It came very quickly. It seems that the information is well-informed."
Hearing this, Luo Yan smiled softly and knocked on the wall of the carriage, signaling the guard driving the carriage to stop. He said to Li Si: "It's not far anyway. Get out of the car and take two steps. Stay in the car. I I’m almost asleep, let’s blow some air to wake up my brain.”
After saying that, he got off the bus first.
Naturally, Li Si would not refute, and followed Luo Yan out of the carriage. After standing firm, he followed Luo Yan and continued:
"When merchants reach the level of people like them, they naturally understand every move of the Qin State. The Tutor's intention has been conveyed to them, so they naturally dare not not come."
Following Luo Yan, he stepped on the snow. As if he couldn't stand the cold weather, Li Si tightened his cloak.
After all, he is not a martial arts practitioner like Luo Yan.
"It's just driven by interests. Secondly, these people also want to see what kind of person I am and what I want to do. If it's beneficial, they will naturally circle around me. It's not beneficial. They can run faster than anyone else, and they There must be support from the Qin Dynasty’s powerful people behind the scenes, so it is impossible to act arbitrarily.”
Luo Yan stretched and let out a breath of white air. He seemed to be more energetic when he was blown by the cold wind. He looked around with bright eyes at the children who looked at him from time to time, smiled at them, and then continued.
"Because of this, they are difficult to control."
Li Si was silent for a while and reminded.
Li Si had already met with those merchants in advance. As Luo Yan said, this group of people were still in a wait-and-see state about the Chamber of Commerce, and seemed to doubt that there would be any pie-falling in the world.
They are not like Widow Qing, who has no choice.
"Why do I need to control? What I want is the network of powerful people behind them. Is this group of merchants alone worth spending so much effort and energy on me? Being able to manage merchants these days to the point of becoming a wealthy businessman in a country must be the same as The rich and powerful in this country have interests involved.
This is true for Qin, let alone the other six countries.
If Qin wanted to unify the six countries, it would definitely not be possible to rely on force alone. The cost would be too high, and it would have to start elsewhere.
For example, there are luxurious and luxurious dignitaries in various countries. There are many high-ranking and powerful people among them. It is best to start with merchants. In the future, their role may be more powerful than Qin's thousands of troops.
Li Si, you need to know.
The most damaging thing to a country is never the external enemies, but the internal moths, especially the moths that have penetrated deep into the bone marrow. "
Luo Yan lazily walked in front, his tone was calm, there was no big fluctuation, but he said something worthy of Li Si's recall.
"Being a merchant is actually similar to being an official. Li Si, what do you think?"
Luo Yan looked at Li Si and chuckled.
"What the master said makes sense, and Li Si has learned from it."
Li Si nodded when he heard this and responded softly, roughly understanding what Luo Yan meant.
The purpose of the Chamber of Commerce is not only to manage merchants, but also to bribe dignitaries from other countries through these merchants, using this as a ladder to bribe openly.
After understanding this, Li Si knew what to do next.
"Next, just follow this direction. As for the control of merchants, you have to take your time. It is best to wait until the king completely takes power and starts the war to destroy the country. With the power of destroying the country, he will completely reform the Qin State, including The Six Kingdoms cannot be established unless they are broken. It is time for the world to change. Li Si, do your best. I am optimistic about you.
You have the talent to lead the country, but you just lack an opportunity. "
Luo Yan patted Li Si's shoulder gently and said softly.
"My subordinates dare not!"
Hearing this, Li Si's pupils shrank and he said quickly.
Luo Yan smiled and said nonchalantly: "I am serious. The position of Prime Minister is not what I want. My dream is to teach and educate people, not to be in charge of a country's finances. Don't worry, I am testing you. , Qin needs a prime minister in the future, and this person must be you."
Luo Yan said this very seriously, and the serious Li Sidu's expression changed slightly, unable to tell whether what Luo Yan said was true or false.
But my mood couldn't help but get excited.
How could Li Si remain calm when facing this topic.
"I really like you!"
Luo Yan chuckled, and then continued walking forward.
Naturally, his words were not to deceive Li Si. He really had no idea about the position of prime minister. In the entire Qin State, the most suitable person was undoubtedly Li Si. As for whether Li Si could sit on it obediently, it would depend on whether Li Si worked hard enough. .
Without the Mediterranean Sea, how can we stop working overtime?
After giving a promise, Li Si should be more motivated to work, right?
Li Si himself is an official fanatic, and his obsession with power has penetrated deeply into his bones and is hopeless.
There is no need to talk about dreams with Li Si.
Li Si is a realistic person. Promising him directly and vouching for him to the king afterwards are enough to make Li Si do his best to complete the tasks assigned to him. He will even handle many details that he cannot handle well and perfectly. .
Luo Yan only needs to be a hands-off shopkeeper and tell the general idea, and Li Si will automatically complete the details.
After the task is completed.
Luo Yan would not covet Mo Li Si's merits. He would naturally recommend Ying Zheng and promote him to an official position, slowly approaching the position of prime minister. This would be a long process.
Ten or twenty years.
In short, Li Si will become the prime minister, and Luo Yan still sticks to his promise.
. . . . . . . . . .
After Luo Yan stepped into the restaurant, he had already forgotten about Li Si. As a leader, how could he do everything personally? He only needed to arrange the general direction and express a meaning and idea, and his subordinates would naturally have to work out other details and regulations. Well, if you can't do this, what's the use of having these subordinates?
All the necessary expressions have been expressed. It is up to Li Si himself how to contact those merchants. He only needs to come forward to finalize the final decision.
If you can't do these things well, how can you survive in the cruel court of Da Qin?
If Li Si wants to rise to the top, he will naturally have to put in far more effort than ordinary people and work hard...
Just like him Luo Yan.
Is it easy for some people who only see others as dignitaries, but never see the energy and efforts he put in for Zhao Ji in Lanzhi Palace? !
ah!
Do you think it's easy for him? !
I really thought that he, a great man, was just relying on his words! ?
joke.
Thinking of this, Luo Yan's expression gradually calmed down, and his temperament changed slightly. Under the hypnosis of his mind, he had once again become the Qin State Tutor who served the country and the people, with steady and powerful steps, a humble attitude, and an extraordinary bearing. It's eye-catching to see.
This person is priceless.
"Master, Madam has been waiting for you for a long time."
At the entrance of the restaurant, the attendant from the Ba family had been waiting for a long time. He naturally recognized Luo Yan, the current imperial master, with awe and gratitude in his eyes.
Because the Ba family is now able to gradually stabilize in the Qin State, thanks to the person in front of them.
"lead the way."
Luo Yan nodded slightly and said softly.
"please."
The attendant nodded quickly and led the way, and soon they were on the top floor of the private room.
"Master, my wife is waiting indoors."
The attendant took Luo Yan to the door of the room, bowed respectfully to Luo Yan, then turned around and retreated back. After a while, the person disappeared from the stairs.
Luo Yan knocked on the door, and with a soft female voice coming from inside the house, he pushed the door open and entered.
"Creak~"
As the door opened, Luo Yan walked in.
There is a stove in the room, and the temperature is much higher than outside. The floor is covered with expensive blankets, which are soft and comfortable to step on. The interior decoration is also elegant and graceful, and the faint fragrance of flowers fills the bedroom.
Obviously this room was specially decorated to show respect for Luo Yan.
Not far away, a widow was standing at the table. She was wearing a white dress that was as long as the floor. Her slender waist was restrained by a cloud belt, which showed that she was not full. Her upper body outlined an exaggerated arc; A red hairpin made her face look like hibiscus, and her face was extremely gorgeous. Her apricot blossom eyes were naturally charming, and she looked at Luo Yan cautiously and respectfully.
The widow Qing took a step forward, bowed softly and bowed, dropped the fruit, and said softly: "A commoner woman has seen the Taifu."
The plump figure exudes the charm of a young woman.
Especially the small white flower on the temples, which is a widow keeping a clean record for her husband, which adds a bit of charm.
"No need to be polite, I'm the one who invited you on this date."
Luo Yanxu helped her and sighed in her heart. After not seeing her for a while, this pretty widow seemed to be more beautiful. She was not as haggard as before, and she was a bit more delicate.
"The Ba family can get out of trouble thanks to the support of the Taifu. The Taifu treats the Ba family with kindness and kindness!"
The widow had clear eyes and clear eyes, and said in a firm tone, as if she wanted to remember Luo Yan's appearance and kindness.
Because she is a woman who knows how to repay kindness.
Her tutor told her not to accept kindness from others in vain, not to mention the Ba family's situation some time ago, which almost made it unbearable.
If the Ba family is gone, how will she see her father-in-law and husband.
"Let's sit down and chat. I happen to be hungry too."
Luo Yan chuckled and said casually.
"Master, please."
Widow Qing said respectfully, and after Luo Yan knelt down and sat down, she sat down beside him calmly, showing off her ladylike charm in every move.
Luo Yan couldn't help but look at it a few more times. When the widow's pretty face turned a little red, he apologized slightly: "Madam, she has outstanding grace and beauty like a flower. I will take a few more looks at the next moment. I'm presumptuous." Please forgive me."
It wasn't that he couldn't control his eyes, but they were the only two people in the room.
God knows what widow Qing means.
A lonely man and a widow.
One is full of blood and the other is a pretty widow.
this……
"... There is no need for the Taifu to be like this. The women believe that the Taifu is a gentleman, not the kind of villain who takes advantage of sex."
Widow Qing was silent for a while and adjusted her mood. Then she looked at Luo Yan calmly with beautiful eyes and said seriously.
With Luo Yan's powerful status, no matter what kind of woman he wants, there is no need to pretend to be in front of a widow. From the last time they met, Widow Qing knew what kind of person Luo Yan was. He was definitely not the kind of person who would be interested in sex. Villain.
This is why Widow Qing dares to be alone in the same room with Luo Yan.
Secondly, the Ba family is really busy recently and lacks manpower, and Widow Qing also lacks available people around her.
Especially the conversation with Luo Yan must not be leaked.
Widow Qing still knows this rule.
I'm really big... Luo Yan murmured in his heart. For a moment, he felt like he was being put on a widow's rack and couldn't get off. Not to mention that such a widow was really interesting. Modern women couldn't see this kind of charm, at least. Luo Yan has never seen it.
However, Luo Yan did not forget about business and started chatting with Widow Qing.
Li Si is in charge of a group of experienced men.
Luo Yan naturally wanted to appease the pretty widow's uneasy heart. In terms of business matters, Luo Yan was also very serious, especially matters related to Qin.
"...That's roughly what it means. I plan to let the Ba family be the president of the first Chamber of Commerce for a period of four years. Whether you can be re-elected after four years depends on the ability of the Ba family and you. As for the vice president, I will arrange a person Help you, you should have heard of his name, Jade Tiger, who was once the richest businessman in South Korea.
This person entered the Qin Dynasty with me and has a good relationship with me, but compared to this person, I trust the wife's credibility more.
Just like my wife believes in my character. "
Luo Yan looked at Widow Qing and said in a deep voice.
Widow Qing's character has been marked in history. In contrast, Jade Tiger is not a good tiger. This person is very greedy. Luo Yan must find someone to suppress him.
No one is more suitable than Widow Qing.
The most important thing is that the widow is a woman, and women have limitations.
"But……"
Widow Qing was also a little stunned when she heard this. She obviously didn't expect such a huge benefit to fall on her head. She was a little confused for a while and didn't know how to answer.
"I will help you from behind. There are not many people I can trust in Qin~"
Luo Yan looked at Widow Qing with calm and gentle eyes, and said softly.
"But I have only met the Taifu once. Why does the Taifu trust me so much?"
Widow Qing looked at Luo Yan in confusion and asked.
"It depends on your eyes. For some people, just one look is enough~"
Luo Yan looked at Widow Qing with a smile and said softly.
Hearing this, looking at Luo Yan's eyes, Widow Qing's pretty face turned slightly red. She didn't know how to answer for a moment, especially in such an atmosphere and room. She suddenly regretted that she had thought about this matter so hastily. .
The Tutor may not be a lecherous person, but he is a man after all.
"You have an ill-fated fate. Both your father-in-law and husband are dead, but you have been able to help your deceased husband keep the Ba family's property for nearly half a year. Why don't you deserve my trust?"
Luo Yan did not continue teasing the other party, but spoke softly and carefully.
Hearing this, Widow Qing also pursed her lips, feeling weak for a moment as if something was being poked at her. She had indeed been very tired in the past six months.
"A civilian woman will never betray the trust of the master!"
Widow Qing took a deep breath, looked at Luo Yan, and said in a soft but extremely firm voice.
"I trust you!"
Luo Yan raised his glass in salute to the widow, and then drank it all in one gulp.
Widow Qing poured wine for Luo Yan in an elegant manner.
"Can you drink?"
Luo Yan asked curiously.
"I can drink a little..."
Widow Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to believe in Luo Yan's character and nodded slightly, not wanting to spoil Luo Yan's interest.
“Let’s chat while drinking, there’s no need to be too formal.”
Luo Yan chuckled lightly and started chatting with Widow Qing while drinking.
. . . . . . . . . . . .
Tufu's Mansion.
Yan Lingji lay boredly lying on the window looking at the slowly falling snowflakes outside the house. There was some loneliness in her beautiful eyes. Her beautiful face silently stared at the falling snowflakes outside the house. Snowflakes kept falling in the gray sky, as if it would never happen. stop.
Looking at the white world, Yan Lingji felt a little lonely for a moment, as if she was the only one left in the world.
She was originally playing at Salamander's place.
But looking at Jing Salamander and Xiao Yan'er, they played for a while and then left.
Tianze and the Exorcist recently went to Luowang, and I wonder what they are doing now.
There has been no news from Wushuang Ghost for a long time.
The old guy, the King of Hundred Poisons, always lives in his poisonous house, and never goes out unless he has something to do.
In such a large Taifu Mansion, the only one who could chat with her was Jing Sala, but Jing Sala didn't talk much and was deserted.
The maid Xiaoyu was able to tease her for a while, but as time went by, Yan Lingji became bored. The most important thing was that she gradually found that she was becoming more and more attached to Luo Yan. Without him by her side, she always felt like something was missing.
"I told you to come back early to accompany me..."
Yan Lingji stared at the gray sky with her dreamlike eyes and murmured to herself.
Although he knew that Luo Yan was busy with business, he had clearly promised himself that it was getting dark and he hadn't come back yet.
For a while.
Yan Lingji's watery eyes were also a little dim. She couldn't say she was sad, but she felt a little disappointed in her heart. This was the first time she saw snow after coming out.
She really hoped that Luo Yan could accompany her, even if he didn't do anything, it would be nice to just sit and look at the snow.
She hates cold weather.
"Did I ask for too much?"
A gust of cold wind blew in, bringing with it some snowflakes, and fell on Yan Lingji's delicate white collarbone. The cold feeling made Yan Lingji feel a little cold, and her eyes seemed to have regained consciousness. She stood up slowly, her red eyes The long skirt fell to the floor, and she stretched out her white arms to close the window.
"big liar……"
Yan Lingji's voice sounded softly, with a little bit of disappointment, but she was not a little girl after all, so she would not dwell too much on this.
It’s not like I was cheated once or twice.
And just when Yan Lingji was about to close the window, the sound of explosions suddenly sounded in the front yard of Taifu's Mansion, followed by several light spots shooting into the sky and immediately exploding in Yan Lingji's eyes, among the snowflakes. Exploding colorful stars.
The starlight reflected in Yan Lingji's eyes was extremely beautiful.
Even more beautiful is her face.
Under the light, she is stunningly beautiful, unlike what she should have in the human world~
"咻咻~"
Points of light soared into the sky and turned into colorful fireworks in mid-air. Coupled with the snowflakes, the scenery was beautiful and moving.
same moment.
The entire Xianyang City people looked over curiously, obviously surprised that someone would set off firecrackers on such a day.
This thing is very rare in this era.
After all, gunpowder is a controlled product, and the people have not yet come up with so many tricks.
The beautiful fireworks paired with the snowy scenery have an indescribable sense of beauty, which is so beautiful that it makes you lose your mind.
Yan Lingji seemed to have thought about something, and ran out before she could put on her shoes. Her black hair was dancing, and her bright red skirt became the only one in the white snow scene.
Jogging all the way to the front yard.
I only saw a huge snowman appearing in the front yard at some point, about three meters high, like a small building. Standing next to it was a figure, holding a fire folder in his hand, emitting firelight. The ground was filled with all kinds of firecrackers.
The figure at this moment was lighting firecrackers continuously, and his hair was covered with snowflakes, as if he had been standing here for a long time.
"Hey~"
Several more fireworks exploded in the sky, and the firelight illuminated Luo Yan and Yan Lingji.
"It's too late to come back~"
Luo Yan looked at Yan Lingji who ran out and said with some embarrassment.
He was drinking with the pretty widow and lost track of time~
Seeing that it was getting dark, he remembered what he had mentioned to Yan Lingji in the morning. Although he just talked about it casually, he knew that Yan Lingji would take it seriously.
Yan Lingji bit her lip and looked at Luo Yan with her beautiful eyes. The next moment, she ran directly towards Luo Yan. She even used Qinggong and jumped directly into Luo Yan's arms. , causing Luo Yan to hold her and spin her in a circle before she stabilized herself.
"big liar……"
Yan Lingji hugged Luo Yan's neck tightly with her arms, with tears in her eyes, and looked at Luo Yan with very bright eyes, as if she wanted to remember Luo Yan today and engrav it in her mind. middle.
"I'm back, how could I lie to you~"
Luo Yan was unhappy and said angrily, is it easy for him to build a snowman and set off fireworks at night?
"Woo~"
Yan Lingji didn't give Luo Yan any intention to continue talking, and directly blocked Luo Yan's mouth with her mouth, very hard...
The fire in the sky slowly dissipated, and the light snow continued to fall.
But the two people under the snow seemed a little blurry.
After a long time, the two separated, but Yan Lingji still looked at Luo Yan stupidly, with tears in her eyes, but her smile was extremely beautiful and bright.
"Crying and laughing, stupid or not, I don't even know how to wear shoes when I go out."
Luo Yan picked up the cloak beside him and shook it, then put it on Yan Lingji's body, wrapped her up, then held her in his arms, and said helplessly at the same time.
"You are stupid~"
Yan Lingji's beautiful eyes were like crescent moons, her tone was filled with happiness, she hugged Luo Yan tightly and whispered softly.
…
In the backyard.
Jing Salamander looked at the fireworks exploding in the sky and was slightly stunned, a little lost...
