In the Spring and Autumn and Warring States without women

Xu Shizhi was a lesson from the past, Xu Shi Heze really cherished this opportunity to stand up and become a manager. When he set up camp at night, Heze really found out all the people on the list.

Xia Yu sat on the couch in the main seat in the tent, carefully looked at the few people kneeling in front of him in a line, from left to right, from right to left, and then said: "I know why I called you here ?"

All the people kneeling below bowed their heads in silence.

Xia Yu didn't speak, but ordered He Ze, who was quietly waiting beside him, to open a box on his desk, and inside were pieces of bamboo slips with scarlet characters on them.

Xia Yu said: "Look up and see what's in this box?"

The few people kneeling on the ground did not dare to disobey their orders. They raised their heads according to Xia Yu's order, and they were very puzzled when they saw the bamboo pieces with many characters written in the box. After a while, some people seemed to realize what the bamboo pieces were, and their eyes began to open shine.

Seeing that someone seemed to understand, Xia Yu smiled lightly and said, "This is the alchemy book of your family."

The so-called Danshu Zhufu is commonly known as the deed of sale in later generations. In this era, if you sell yourself as a slave and become a slave, then you are no different from livestock, and can be exchanged and presented at will. It is this Danshu written in vermilion characters that holds the status of slave, and it is also this Danshu that can remove your status as a slave.

Therefore, when they heard that it was written by the whole family, the eyes of the kneeling people lit up.

Seeing the reactions of these people, Xia Yu turned to He Ze who was standing by and said, "What do you think they have in common?"

He Ze frowned slightly, and after a while, he said cautiously and tentatively: "They are all businessmen, businessmen from different countries."

Xia Yu looked at He Ze and smiled, then she didn't say anything to He Ze, but turned to the people kneeling on the ground and said, "You are all businessmen, there are people from Wu State, Chu State, Jin State, and Qin State. Moreover, almost all of you are in my company."

The few people kneeling below looked at each other in blank dismay. They were found out from different officials, and their families did not know each other, so they didn't know that everyone was a businessman, or that almost the whole family was escorted here.

Xia Yu took out the pill books from the wooden box, placed them on the desk one by one like playing cards, and said, "Now, I can return your pill books to you, not only that." Xia Yu Yu raised her hand, and an attendant beside her was holding smaller wooden boxes and placing them on the table. Xia Yu opened them under Xia Yu's signal, and there were bright "gold nuggets" inside. Xia Yu looked at the boxes before her. A few people said, "These are also yours."

The kneeling people were all merchants, who were displaced due to the war, or because of the family’s decline and misfortune, and became slaves. How can they not be happy to see that they are expected to return to common people? Everything is a mutual transaction at the stake. Seeing the boxes of "gold" in the case, I knew in my heart that such a good thing fell on my head, and Xia Yu, as the master, must ask for everything.

Among the few people, a bold one has already opened his mouth and said: "Lord, if we are humbled by the Lord's mercy and can be restored to the status of common people, we will be reborn with grace, but we really don't know, what can be called the Lord's service, and the Lord is so great. Grace bestowed?"

Xia Yu had no expression on his face, but he was quite satisfied in his heart. He used the "satellite" to observe the past few days, and repeatedly considered and selected these candidates. : "I will give you civilian status and gold. I want you to go to various vassal states to buy me something I like. It may be craftsmen, it may be land, it may be pearls and jade. I want you to be businessmen. Okay, go back and forth between the vassal states for me, buy and sell goods, and practice the way of merchants."

After a pause, Xia Yu continued: "I will give you five years, and I will also give you some requirements. If you do it, I will burn your family's alchemy and give your family members the status of civilians. You did a good job , I will give your family land and goods, and let your family live a life of superiority, and if you feel that the sky is high and the earth is far away, and you take the money and run away, then I don’t need to say that you should know that your family will What's the end?"

The people kneeling on the ground looked at each other for a few moments, wondering in their hearts. They were all merchants' families, but because they were born in troubled times and encountered various situations, all their furniture became slaves. Slaves, even the descendants of the next generation are slaves, but how willing they are. At this time, they have the opportunity to get rid of slavery, and they are doing their job as merchants, so how can they not fight hard.

Therefore, the last few people knelt down and said: "The villain dare not die."

Burned their alchemy books in front of these people, and then ordered the people around him to bring the clothes that had been prepared, and select a few guards to send to these people. These people went to say goodbye to their families, and took advantage of the night to let these merchants leave.

Heze, who is new to this, handles all these in an orderly and proper manner.

Xia Yu looked at He Ze who came back and said, "Do you know why I asked them to leave at night before entering Yan Kingdom?"

He Ze bowed his head and remained silent.

Xia Yu said: "I asked you to be in charge because I think you are competent. We will spend a lot of time together in the future, so try to speak frankly. I won't work in hiding."

After hearing Xia Yu's words, He Ze knew that he could no longer remain silent, so he said cautiously, "Master, do you want to stay out of the way?"

Xia Yu heard He Ze's answer, she didn't speak, just looked at He Ze quietly, when He Ze was already a little uneasy, Xia Yu smiled, and said: "I saw the right person, you are very good."

On the border of Yan State, Prince Furen is rushing to the border with a team of people and horses in the starry night. Although the journey is urgent, but after all, it is a wedding ceremony, and there must be a minimum of etiquette. Fu Guzhu rushed to the border with Ah Xiang.

Along the way, Gu Zhucun Adu frowned.

Prince Furen has spent so many years with Gu Zhucun's master and apprentice, so he naturally knows what Gu Zhucun's thinking in his heart, and said: "Teacher, but you have concerns, you might as well speak up."

Gu Zhucun also knows the temperament of convincing people, originally he didn't want to talk too much before the prince passed out to make people unhappy, but he couldn't help but listened to the convincing people's questioning, and said: "Prince, this is a big faint at the border. Is it too hasty?"

Gu Zhucun is a well-learned scholar, although he is not as persistent in etiquette and law as Confucian disciples, but he is still somewhat persistent, unlike the Yan Guoguo who was born in Beidi, who was neither familiar nor so familiar with etiquette care.

The expression on Prince Furen's face was rather complicated. After a long time, he sighed and said, "To tell the truth, teacher, now when I think of going to see Xia Yu, the hairs on my back stand on end."

Gu Zhu Cun'a heard this and widened his eyes, and said: "Prince, you were soft and hard at the beginning, I don't know how much effort you spent to persuade Guo Chu, how can you say such a thing now?"

The prince was a little embarrassed and said: "At that time, I wanted to save Xia Yu from trouble, so I asked Teacher Ji Yu, and the teacher offered me to propose to Qi. , we are going to meet at this time, I think..." The crown prince paused for a while, and said, "With Xia Yu's temperament, I am really afraid that he will cut me off."
