Zhang Liang shook his head.
He stood up, looked out the window, and said solemnly: "There is no need to take action anymore."
"Everything that happens in Guanzhong now may be part of Qin Ting's plan. It is inconvenient for us to be exposed. With our actions restricted, the more we do, the easier it is to attract Qin Ting's attention. Not only will we not be able to disrupt the situation, but it will actually Put yourself in it."
"Are you really just looking at it like this?" He Yao was a little unwilling.
It is not easy for such a big problem to arise in Guanzhong this time. If they can seize the opportunity and disrupt Guanzhong, it will undoubtedly be a great benefit to them. If Qin Tingruo loses the support of the people, it will shorten the time for them to come back by countless years. .
How could he be willing to give up like this?
Zhang Liang is aware of He Yao's reluctance, but the current situation is like this, and what can he do about it?
He solemnly said: "Brother He, if it's time to break it, break it off."
"It's just a matter of waxing and waning."
"Brother He, you may not realize that Qin Ting has made changes half a year ago. We have reacted a little too late now. Now that we are in Xianyang, the center of the whirlpool in the world, we should be even more cautious."
"It is not appropriate to make any further moves now."
"We should wait quietly in Xianyang for this farce to end, and experience for ourselves what changes Qin Ting has undergone and what he is planning secretly."
"Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger."
"We've missed half a year."
"Today's Qin Ting can no longer be viewed from the perspective of the past. We even know nothing about the current Qin Ting's situation. The more we do, the more mistakes we will make."
"It might even turn into helping Qin."
"How is this possible?" He Yao was a little stunned.
He hated Qin so much that he could not help Qin.
"It's not impossible." Zhang Liang looked at the sky with his hands behind his back and said seriously: "The current chaos in Xianyang is like a 'chess'. Qin Ting has already arranged everything secretly. How much can we do if we rush into the game?" ? Even before we could see the chess game clearly, the game was over."
"Can't go too deep."
"The best way to deal with it now is to wait and see what happens and watch Qin Ting deal with it. We don't focus on the gains and losses of one city or one pool, but should look at the overall situation of the world."
"A small leak will sink a great ship!"
He Yao's expression changed, and she finally nodded in agreement.
He said: "Brother Zifang, no matter how Qin Ting arranges it, he will still have to deal with the salt and iron matter. Is it true that Qin Ting can get so much salt and iron?"
"The people of Qin may not know the situation in the Shaofu, but how can we not?"
Zhang Liang hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "As you just said, the notice posted by Qin Ting has clearly stated that another notice will be posted at dusk, and the solution will be explained at that time."
"It seems."
"The Qin court may really have the corresponding salt and iron."
"But where did Qin Ting get so much salt and iron?" He Yao asked doubtfully.
Zhang Liang stroked his beard, and there was also a puzzled look in his eyes. Finally, he seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Merchant."
"The merchant's salt and iron are not"
Zhang Liang said coldly: "I'm afraid not."
"Even the salt and iron have been obtained by the government."
"This may be the real reason why the government has been on hold during this period."
"Now that the salt and iron are in hand, the government has begun to intervene. But how did Qin Ting pry open the merchants' mouths? And the merchants had to hand over the salt and iron?"
"This doesn't make sense."
"There may be a lot of reasons for this!"
Hear the words.
He Yao showed a hint of hesitation and asked: "Could it be that the salt and iron were not produced by merchants, but were prepared by Qin Ting earlier?"
Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's unlikely."
"If this is the case, there is no need for the government to delay this for so long."
"It's just that the merchant obviously intended to cause trouble and wanted Qin Ting to fall into the mud. It's just that he didn't know what happened in the middle, so the merchant had to surrender."
Zhang Liang couldn't figure it out.
This is completely unconscionable.
But he didn't think too much about it. When Qin Ting began to solve the salt and iron issue in Guanzhong, these secrets would gradually surface.
He can wait.
Zhang Liang said: "From the news we heard on the way here, and what you just said, Qin Ting seems to be intending to highlight the Shaofu and win back the trust of the Qin people. The crisis in Guanzhong seems serious, but only Qin Ting can provide Add salt and iron, and the crisis will be eliminated immediately.”
"I don't think Qin Ting will stop so easily."
"The crisis in Guanzhong this time is full of weirdness. There must be many secrets in it, and Qin Ting must have been planning it for a long time. We may have to stay in Xianyang for a while this time to see Qin Ting's final movements. .”
He Yao nodded.
He looked at Zhang Liang and asked: "Brother Zifang, did you say that Bao Qin turned around? What do you mean?"
Zhang Liang glanced at He Yao a few times, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to reveal his findings.
He said: "I am just guessing at the moment."
"I have never been able to figure out what happened in Guanzhong, because it involves the livelihood of millions of people. No matter how cruel and unkind Qin Ting is, he must always pay attention to it. But as far as the news we have heard, Qin Ting has always pretended to turn a blind eye. There's obviously something wrong with that."
"It's just that I never figured out why."
"Finally, I examined Qin Ting's behavior over the past six months, and then I gradually realized some things that I had not noticed in the past."
"Qin Ting has changed!"
“And it’s changed dramatically.”
"We no longer advance as vigorously as in the past, nor are we eager for success, but have begun to slow down. Although this slowness is very limited and even difficult to detect, it has indeed slowed down. Some Qin policies in the past are still advancing steadily. , but I am relatively no longer anxious.”
"Qin Ting's changes are very subtle, even very inconspicuous."
"The first ones to move were the merchants."
"The merchants have the lowest status, so they are not cared about."
"Even though we have never paid attention to the merchants from the beginning to the end, we only paid attention to the nobles of Qi. However, during the battle between Qin and Chu, Qi sat on the sidelines and wasted the opportunity to severely damage Qin, so it took the lead in Qi. When the attack started, I and other nobles from the other five countries chose to ignore it."
"Really think about it."
"The wealth of merchants is indeed not as good as that of nobles."
"It's actually quite a lot."
"The Qin court imitated Guan Zhong's 'Guan Shan Hai', but it achieved a lot of results, and it benefited a lot from it."
"That's just one aspect of it."
"A more important aspect has been ignored by us."
"What else have we overlooked?" He Yao frowned and his face became solemn.
Zhang Liang said: "The Qin court recalled some officials to Xianyang."
"At that time, officials from the six places in Guandong were all rejoicing that they were not promoted by Qin Ting. Even we were secretly happy because the officials who had friendship with us were still there. Qin Ting's move undoubtedly relaxed its control over Guandong."
"It's definitely a big win for us."
"But think about it."
"Qin Ting's move may not mean that he is deliberately shrinking."
"Why shrink?"
"It's just like making a fist. If you want to hit hard, you have to take the fist back first, and then when it's about to punch out, then swing it out with all your strength. Isn't that what Qin Ting is doing now?"
"Let's look back."
"Qin Ting obtained a lot of money and food through 'Guan Shan Hai'."
"Also through the so-called rectification of internal affairs, many old Qin officials were recalled. Now the Qin court's focus has obviously shifted. It no longer stubbornly puts the world first, but becomes Guanzhong."
"One increase and one decrease."
"It seems that it has weakened its control over Guandong, but in fact it has also strengthened Qin Ting's own strength. Relatively speaking, Qin Ting's strength has only increased."
"Because Qin is the only strong country in its own right!"
He Yao was also frightened into a cold sweat after hearing Zhang Liang's words.
In fact, he had never thought of this at all. If it weren't for Zhang Liang's detailed analysis, he might have been kept in the dark, and he didn't know how long it would take him to react.
And what Zhang Liang said before was indeed his idea.
Qin Ting weakened its control over Guandong, which was beneficial to them. They were quite excited at the time, thinking that Qin Ting was starting to make frequent mistakes.
Now that I think about it, not at all.
On the contrary, Qin Ting has been doing things in silence.
They were all deceived by Qin Ting!
"Brother Zifang, in your opinion, what exactly does Qin Ting want to do?" He Yao said solemnly.
Zhang Liang shook his head.
He sighed softly, his expression serious.
"have no idea."
"Qin Ting is very unfamiliar to us now, and I can't predict what Qin Ting will do next, so I don't recommend continuing this time. The top priority now is to find out the context of Qin Ting to avoid falling into the trap in the future. In Qin Ting’s trap.”
"But Qin Ting is in the light, and we are in the dark."
"No matter how hard Qin Ting hides it, it will eventually be revealed."
"Just wait now."
He Yao was worried about Zhang Liang's words.
He asked uneasily: "What is Qin Ting's intention behind turning around?"
"Did you become wary of us?"
Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know. If it is really aimed at us, it will be a very bad news for us."
"But not necessarily."
"In the past few years, there have been rumors that Ying Zheng is ill."
"The current contraction of Qin Ting may be due to my unfounded worries. Everything Qin Ting does may be to preserve the foundation and ensure that after Ying Zheng's death, Fusu can take the throne normally."
"But it's always right to be more careful."
"If Qin Ting really starts to deliberately shrink his power, and then uses all his strength to target us, I'm afraid our situation will be even more difficult in the future, but Brother He doesn't need to worry too much. It's not that easy for Qin Ting to turn around. The world has been grudges for a long time. Isn't it possible? Can it be solved overnight?"
"As long as we understand Qin Ting's true intentions and target them, we may not be able to interrupt Qin Ting's pace and drag Qin Ting into the quagmire again."
"The world has been suffering from Qin for a long time."
"But if we can't stop it, we may be destined to do something wrong."
"The result may be unpredictable by then."
"Connect vertically and horizontally."
"At that time, the six countries will unite to attack Qin. They can only succeed and cannot fail. Once we fail, we may have no chance of turning around."
"That will be a life-and-death battle!!!"
My computer has been assembled, but the emmm monitor has not arrived yet, and I don’t know if there is any problem with the one I installed. Currently, it can be turned on and the fan can rotate.
Just think of it as good.
Akimbo!
