Chapter 339 About Cui Hou’s Hidden Danger


    Fei Qian''s thighs were wrapped with cloth strips, making it impossible to sit upright, so Zhang Liao simply asked others to bring a few more benches, and everyone sat around the firepit in the middle of the tent, one per person. Chatting while warming themselves by the fire.


    ??On the fire pit, an iron pot was hung from a few thick wooden branches. Some water, rice, vegetable leaves, and a few pieces of bacon were placed in it, and it was simmering.


    ??More than 300 chariots and horses were under the command of Fei Qian and Zhang Liao''s soldiers, and the noise outside the tent slowly calmed down.


    Fei Qian introduced Ma Yan to Zhang Liao. When Zhang Liao heard that he was General Du Liao, he was immediately in awe. He met Ma Yan solemnly and specially invited Ma Yan to sit next to him and chatted about the Ma family. After seeing the situation before and after going to the county, the two people soon started chatting and laughing.


    Cui Hou sat aside and watched the conversation between Zhang Liao and Ma Yan. He didn''t know what he thought of, so he lowered his eyes and took a long breath.


    After these days of running back and forth, contacting people, even though he had some connections in the past, Cui Hou was as tired as a dog. Now that he had finally reached the end of the field, he relaxed a little, and suddenly felt that his shoulders and waist were full of I felt a dull soreness, twisted from side to side, and made a rattling sound. I couldn''t help but reach out to my back and hit it twice.


    "Yongyuan has really worked hard this time, but now that we are here, we can rest for a few days and adjust well." Fei Qian looked at Cui Hou and said with a smile.


    Cui Hou offered his hand and said, "Thank you so much, envoy, but I think I can still hold on." Although he was fortunate at the moment, he still had hundreds of millions of money flowing in his hands. For Cui Hou, who had been in business for many years, this was no less than the summit. It reaches a new level, so the psychological satisfaction is enough to withstand the physical exhaustion.


    The conversation between Zhang Liao and Ma Yan also came to an end. While watching Huang Cheng stirring the food in the pot with a long-handled wooden spoon, he said: "Zi Yuan, it seems that none of your vehicles belong to the same family? Are they all from the same family?" Rented?”


    "Well, they are all rented." After applying the medicated oil, he finally no longer felt the burning pain in his inner thighs, but felt a bit of coolness. Fei Qian felt much more comfortable and said with a smile, "Otherwise I He’s not a god, he can’t conjure up so many chariots and horses…”


    Everyone laughed.


    Cui Hou said with some superfluity: "This method is very clever. Using the carriages and horses of many families for transportation, on the one hand, the quantity of grain and grass can be gathered faster, and on the other hand, there is no need to spend money on the purchase of carriages and horses. "


    Why do you say it’s superfluous?


    ?Because everyone in the tent basically understands this matter and the benefits of this, it is not too important whether Cui Hou explains it, and there will be no feeling of enlightenment when Cui Hou says this.


    Fei Qian glanced at Cui Hou and felt somewhat clear in his heart.


    ?Ma Yan and Cui Hou also met some time ago. They simply held hands and chatted for a few words. This was the same even when Cui Hou and Zhang Liao met.


    ?? Cui Hou felt a little embarrassed when no one spoke to him, so he laughed twice and lowered his head.


    ?Cui Hou felt quite subtle at this time, a little proud and a little inferior.


    What he is proud of is that Cui Hou has hundreds of millions of money flowing in and out of his own hands. This allows him to finally see that he has a glimmer of hope to become one of the top rich men in Han Dynasty. This is not only his dream, but also the dream of his father''s generation. Dream, and now the plan is being realized step by step according to what Fei Qian said before, which means that he will also realize his dream step by step. This will be a feat that will be recorded in the Cui family. , how can you not make Cui Hou feel proud?


    But from another aspect, because Tian Chen usurped Qi during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the Lu family''s rare goods in the Qin Dynasty deeply hurt the hearts of the rulers, so in the Han Dynasty, the status of the so-called merchants was different from that in the Warring States Period. It has dropped a lot compared to the previous year, mainly because the rulers have begun to have more restrictions and precautions against the participation of big businessmen in politics. Therefore, Cui Lie''s behavior of spending money to buy Sangong was criticized by mainstream scholars. Even Cui Lie''s own son Cui Jun dared to say that his old man smelled like copper...


    ?Cui Hou is now in white. Although it can be said that he controls most of Fei Qian''s wealth, he is still not taken seriously by most people. He longs to be recognized, but is also afraid of being rejected, so Cui Hou makes such a move, hoping that he can truly become a member of Fei Qian''s ranks...


    Fei Qian noticed that this kind of thing is very common in later generations. In the workplace, there is often a kind of person who seems to try to join in, say a few words, and express his own opinions no matter what topic others are talking about.


    ?Although this kind of person is sometimes annoying, it is also a bit pitiful, because most of these people are not valued in the workplace.


    And those who are really in power don’t even have to participate in anything. Someone will rush over and ask - ah, what do you think about this matter, leader? Then pretend to take a pen and paper, listen and record furiously, of course. Is it really recording or just drawing symbols, no one knows...


    But this is not important, and the leader will not care about what his subordinates are writing, he just needs them to express such an attitude.


    As for those on the fringes, no matter how much they say, no one cares about them.


    Just like now, except Fei Qian himself, no one else seems to be interested in taking Cui Hou''s words.


    ??Although Cui Hou is sitting here, he seems like an outsider, very far away.


    ?This is not a good thing.


    Fei Qian himself knew that letting a businessman control too much power would form a deformed monster. Sometimes he would even disregard the morality of his family and country because of commercial profits. This kind of thing will become more and more obvious in later generations, but like As it is now, Cui Hou is implicitly excluded, which is not necessarily a good thing.


    Just like the Mi family in Xuzhou, even if they worked hard to pave the way for Liu Da''er and spent all their wealth in exchange for a position in Liu Da''er''s team, even their own Mi Zhen was offered as Liu Da''er''s concubine with both hands. But still can''t win the recognition of Liu Daer''s team...


    When Guan Erye flooded the Seventh Army, he even said that when he returned, it would be the time to settle accounts with Mi Fang. You must know that Mi Fang was more or less Liu Bei''s second brother-in-law. He didn''t leave any affection at all, which made the Mi family''s relationship even worse. How embarrassing?


    ?Although Cui Hou has not said anything at the moment, this is indeed a hidden danger, but the question is, how to deal with it better?


    The truth about Zhuge Xingyun:


    On that day in Wuzhangyuan, Zhuge lit lamps and set up a grand formation to steal the sky and change lives. The lights in the tent were as bright as day.


    Wei Yan carefully opened the tent and came in to take a look. He was immediately happy: "Ah? Today is the Prime Minister''s birthday? Happy birthday! There are so many lights, let me help the Prime Minister blow a few! Ah **** -"
