Chapter 206 Jin Gu twenty-five villains
"General is so absurd!" Sima Ji finished the remaining wine, ate two more bites of the dish, and said heartily.
As long as any industry can form a monopoly, there is nothing that doesn’t make money. The so-called saying goes with the rules is as follows. As long as someone provides protection from the official mouth, Sima Ji can also come up with some novel ways of playing. Even if there is not, you can still make money. The gambling city makes money because there is only one city in China that legal city.
As for whether it will hurt ordinary people, Sima Ji thought it would not. Based on his observation of the people of the Jin Dynasty, his living conditions are close to that of the proletariat defined by later generations. Can he still collect food and enter the casino?
Even if it was opened, Sima Ji probably could only make money from two types of people. The first type was the gentry. If the Jin Dynasty also had purchasing power, the purchasing power could only be reflected from the gentry. The other type was the Hu Shang who entered the Jin Dynasty, which was also a good thing, and it could reverse the trade that was more profitable.
"It's a pity that other big cities do not have this condition except Luoyang and Jiankang." Sima Ji was telling the truth. It turns out that Shu is relatively weak. Xuchang can barely do it in a city that can really support casinos. If you are really sure, there are only two cities, Luoyang and Jiankang.
"The wealth in the world is also here in two cities!" Shi Chong looked at Sima Ji and comforted, "The move of King Yan is enough."
"I am willing to pay ten million yuan to make this deal with the general sincerity. However, the general is famous, and I wonder if he can look at the little money of this king?" Sima Ji only proposed his real purpose at this time. He proposed that making money from gambling is definitely not to make Shi Chong, the great Jin rich, worthy of his reputation, but to consolidate his status as the great Jin rich.
When I think of my future opponent Sima Ji, I feel numb. Who knows how much money I have to fill in after expanding the army and preparing for war? How can I settle down in the future without saving some scattered silver in advance?
Shi Chong also knew that Sima Ji would not give a plan in vain, but wanted to get a piece of the pie. But this is good. Shi Chong's biggest disadvantage is that his family rose too late, and his father, Sima Shibao, was inferior to the court and had too shallow foundation. Otherwise, Shi Chong would not have worked hard to do it, and had a good relationship with these famous scholars and leaned against the Jia family.
The key is that Sima Ji is a royal family or a royal family that the queen is optimistic about. Shi Chong also heard this from Jia Mi, so he agreed without hesitation, "If the King of Yan is here, great things will be accomplished!"
"Only I can borrow the east wind if I have a general who is good at managing finances." Sima Ji also smiled and complimented, "I am not as good as drinking, I will disturb you in two days!" After that, he was about to get up and say goodbye, but he had not forgotten to ask Shi Chong to recommend Jia Mi.
Two days later, Sima Ji met Jia Mi in Shi Chong's mansion. Sima Ji was ignorant and could only use one word to describe him. He is handsome! Jia Mi's father is of average origin, and it must be too much to be favored by Jia Nanfeng's sister. Now it seems that this extraordinary thing is on his face.
After seeing Sima Ji, Jia Mi restrained his arrogant expression. He could look arrogant to Shi Chong and even ordinary gentry princes. Because of his height, he was different from the royal kings. He quickly treated him, "Your Highness, King Yan, I thought Shi Chong was a joke, but I didn't expect that Your Highness was really here, Jia Mi was polite."
This must be fake. Sima Jike knew that Jia Mi didn't even take the prince seriously later. Once, Sima Ying, who was left in the palace, was seen by Sima Ying, which eventually led to Sima Ying and everyone scolded him. The final result was that the Martial Emperor's parent-child was driven out of the town.
"The Duke of Lu County does not need to be polite. The Duke's literary talent is known to the capital. I respect great talents." Sima Ji was also very polite. He felt that Jia Mi's literary talent must be moisture, and maybe it was blown by Shi Chong and others. But even if it is moisture, he must have thought more than his fake. Pretending to be a fool will only bring shame to himself.
Then he went straight to the topic. Sima Ji used his actions to show that he and Shi Chong were completely the same. He was preparing to explore the domestic demand of the gentry of the Jin Dynasty, increase consumption, and revitalize the economy. Although he was a royal family vassal king, his fiefdom was too far away to exert influence in Luoyang, so he had to speak out and follow the rules and ask Jia Mi to come forward.
Sima Ji is trusted by the queen. Faced with such a vassal king, Jia Mi is certainly willing to be optimistic. He has a friend in the royal family, and Jia Mi speaks more toughly, not to mention that this is a good thing in itself. Who would not be able to get along with money? At least he doesn't know that, and a famous scholar is also an ordinary person.
"But the better the people involved in this matter, the better, and you can take care of it!" Jia Mi also put forward his own ideas to Sima Ji.
Sima Ji nodded. The fewer people involved in the coup, the better, and he could catch him off guard. But like this, the more people involved, the better. After all, the law does not blame the crowd. But when he heard Jia Mi say who he was going to win over, the King of Yan suddenly became uneasy. There were several familiar names all of them among the twenty-four friends of Jingu.
"The twenty-four friends in Jingu are really unlucky to meet me. They have a bad reputation in history, and now they have become gambling groups!" Sima Ji said sorry in his heart. It seems that he must revise the history books in the future and cut himself off from these people.
"Today, General Yingyang did not make any explanation. I would like to invite the King of Yan to meet the talents in the capital another day." Jia Mi suggested enthusiastically, "With the help of these famous scholars, things will definitely go smoothly."
Sima Ji nodded frequently. In fact, from now on, the twenty-four friends in Jingu have nothing to do with the famous scholars. He had a very dark reputation in history, because this matter is even more unscrupulous, and he would probably be regarded as a group of talented villains.
As for Jia Mi, the nominal boss of the twenty-four friends in the Jingu, he will definitely die according to history. To put it simply, the glory and wealth of Jia and the wealth and life of Prince Sima Yu have always been maintained in Queen Jia's belly.
As long as the queen gave birth to a baby boy and deposed Sima Yu, it would no longer be a dream. If a legitimate son is born, other royal families will not spy on the emperor's position. Even if they are dissatisfied, the fate of King Runan and King Chu is there.
However, Jia Nanfeng has not succeeded so far. Without a legitimate son, the prince cannot be deposed. If Jia Nanfeng wants to kill the prince, the royal family will uproot the entire Jia family. Of course, Jia Mi will not be spared. This is a dead knot.
