Chapter 710: There are other candidates
Meng Xifan said: "We just learned about this, but you are in charge of the stalls there, so you don't seem to have anything to do with us, right?"
"It does have nothing to do with the three family heads, but the development of Baiyue Land has something to do with everyone." Li Si said.
Meng Xifan frowned slightly and asked, "Please speak more clearly."
Bai Siqi had a puzzled look on his face, but only Gan Mao showed a genuine expression.
Li Si nodded and said: "The three family heads should all know that Baiyue Land is very poor now, but it has huge potential.
The emperor once said that the south is richer than the north. The south is not only a land of plenty, but also an important place for commercial development. literature
The emperor's army will come out in half a year and will definitely develop the south. Now there is only one commercial city in Guangzhou City, but there will definitely be many more in the future.
In this case, we should hurry up and lay a foundation in the Baiyue Land before the emperor comes out. Once the Baiyue Land is developed, we will have more say and participate in more development projects to contribute to the family. Make more money.
Once we have money, we can set up a fleet. You can imagine how much profit a huge fleet can bring us.
To this end, I would like to contribute the sea charts to Maurya. "
"Are you telling the truth?" Gan Mao suddenly became excited.
The sea map to the Mauryan Dynasty is now the treasure that all nobles dream of, because after Li Si's merchant ship came back, he obtained a large number of rare treasures, each of which was priceless.
In particular, that war horse was much taller and stronger than all the war horses in Da Qin.
Even the bloody horses of the Western Regions were somewhat overshadowed by the war horses of the Maurya Dynasty.
Everyone was jealous of Li Si's harvest, and they tried every possible means to find out where Li Si's merchant ship got the goods.
Later, Li Si told everyone that it was bought from the Mauryan Dynasty, but the sea map did not reveal even a single word.
Everyone was helpless about this, and some even wanted to force Li Si to hand over the chart.
But Li Si just said lightly that there was a share of the emperor's master here, which made everyone give up their thoughts.
It's okay to offend Li Si, because everyone can afford it, and His Majesty won't care about it.
But it's not okay to offend the Emperor's Master, because that is something that cannot be provoked. The consequences of provoking the Emperor's Master are very serious, and the First Emperor will handle the matter personally.
At a lighter level, it means dismissal from office and property confiscation; at a more serious level, it means confiscation of property and annihilation of the clan.
No one dares to gamble and cannot afford to gamble.
But now that Li Si said that he would hand over the charts, how could this not shock everyone?
"Are you telling the truth?" Gan Mao asked.
"Of course, this is my sincerity." Li Si said, "The land of Baiyue has huge potential. Whether we can have the money to make a name for ourselves at sea in the future depends on the land of Baiyue."
"Isn't there still land in the Western Region?" Gan Luo said, "As long as the countries in the Western Region are conquered, Da Qin's trade routes will become more numerous, and there will be fewer opportunities to make money?"
"Xiang Gan, I admit that the Western Region is also a place to make money, but can you guarantee that at the same time, the trade route in the Western Region will make more money than the sea route?
In addition, I will reveal another piece of news. There was internal strife in the Mauryan Dynasty, just as countless vassal states appeared in the Zhou Dynasty.
Now when we go to the Maurya Dynasty, we can still make contributions to the Qin Dynasty in the Maurya Dynasty. "
"How can we contribute to the Qin Dynasty in the Mauryan Dynasty?" Gan Luo asked puzzledly.
Gan Mao immediately explained: "Master Li means that money can be used to bribe some officials of the Maurya Dynasty.
You can also establish your own power in the Maurya Dynasty. In the future, when the imperial army reaches the Maurya Dynasty, there will also be a place that can be used as a stronghold. "
"That's right." Li Si said, "What's more important is that we can place agents inside to find out about the Maurya Dynasty's distribution of power and troops, or buy some people in advance.
Just wait until the imperial army
Once you arrive, you can occupy the Maurya Empire as quickly as possible. "
Bai Siqi said, "Are you so generous?"
This was a huge achievement, and it was really suspicious for Li Si to give it up like this.
Hearing this, Gan Luo immediately said: "Li Si, this is not like you at all. You might as well tell me directly, what do you want to do?"
"Gan Xiang, haven't you thought of the key points of what I've said?" Li Si reminded.
key point?
Everyone was stunned for a moment, they really didn't expect it.
Feng Quji spoke at this time: "Three family heads, Mr. Li means that he is alone and cannot do what he just said. Even if he can do it, I am afraid it will take more than ten years or even dozens of years." year thing.
This is very detrimental to the development of Great Qin. Don't forget that the Mauryan Dynasty's territory was larger than the current Great Qin. "
Everyone nodded slightly. Li Si alone was indeed weak. It was indeed a bit foolish to want to shake the Maurya Dynasty, which was bigger than the Qin Dynasty.
"So, he wants something from us?" Gan Luo said.
As soon as his words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly changed. Why were these words so harsh?
Gan Mao said in a deep voice: "Luo Er, shut up. From now on, don't speak. Just ask me if you have anything."
"Father, I..." Gan Luo looked at Gan Mao in shock.
"Shut up." Gan Mao scolded angrily.
Li Si said lukewarmly: "Gan Xiang, do you think I have no other candidates besides you?"
Gan Mao and others were shocked when they heard this. What did Li Si mean by this? Could it be that he has other candidates?
Gan Luo was immediately furious. Regardless of Gan Mao's scolding, he said directly: "Who else can you rely on besides us? Why don't the nobles in Xianyang City give us some face?"
"Nobles from the six countries, merchants, and nobles outside of Xianyang City are working in the Mauryan Dynasty. They can not only earn a lot of money, but also achieve great achievements. How many people do you think are rushing to do it?" Li Si asked.
Many, very many, and in this way, Li Si himself can complete this matter and build his own power in the Mauryan Dynasty.
Everyone was immediately confused. Li Si could obviously do this, but why didn't he do it? Do you want to talk to them about this?
Gan Luo didn't think too much and asked directly: "Since you have so many choices, why do you still tell us?"
"Because you are the most powerful, it doesn't mean that I ask for anything from you. Ganxiang, if you feel that I must be yours, I can leave now."
As soon as Li Si finished speaking, he stood up and looked like he was leaving now.
The others were immediately anxious, but Feng Quji looked calm. He believed that even if they couldn't cooperate with Bai Siqi, Li Si would still ask him to cooperate.
Only Gan Luo's face was ashen. He never expected that Li Si would not give him the respect of the Left Prime Minister.
