Chapter 190 Not a big problem
Although it's a little tricky, it's not a big problem.
It's just that we can no longer use force to overwhelm others, we need to talk about some strategies.
Cheng Qiao has lived in Xianyang for so many years and is still very familiar with the dignitaries of the imperial court.
After reading the documents over and over, I keenly discovered a problem, that is, the descendants of various powerful families in charge of handling affairs in the Iron Blood Alliance of Qin were all side branches.
Although Cheng Qiao knew all the legitimate sons and daughters of important dignitaries in Xianyang City and even the Qin State, he basically knew their names, and there was not a single legitimate son or daughter in this document.
Cheng Qiao believed in the ability to cover up the sun and the intelligence ability of Luo Wang at the base camp. Basically, he could not make mistakes, and even if he made mistakes, he could not make mistakes on a large scale.
Since there is no direct son or daughter, the people on the list are all side branches, and only the more capable side branches can participate in management.
This situation illustrates a problem, that is, the powerful people of various families, at least the top powerful people, do not attach much importance to the Iron Blood Alliance. At most, it is a relatively important financial source.
After all, not all bets are worth the guarantee of the Iron Blood Alliance. Small bets will definitely not be mixed up. The profits must at least reach a certain limit before they will come forward. Otherwise, the division may not be enough for the rich and powerful for a few days... …
Even with Qin's currently relatively vast territory, coupled with Qin's national conditions, there won't be too many bets that reach the limit.
In this way, it will not be difficult to replace the dominant position in the Iron Blood Alliance of Qin.
After all, he did not intend to deprive these powerful people of their dividends, but only intended to obtain the dominant right, which can also be called operating rights.
Of course, once the Iron Blood Alliance of Qin is run under the leadership of Luo Wang, saving financial and human resources costs for those powerful people, the corresponding dividend share will need to be adjusted, and you can't do things like making a profit at a loss.
If you want to gain dominance, those powerful and powerful people who are specifically responsible for operations are of secondary importance. Trying to work hard on them will get twice the result with half the effort, because they can't make the decision at all.
We should take the upper-level route and deal with the heads of each family directly. This way, we can omit possible conflicts and the efficiency will be much higher.
The Iron Blood Alliance of Qin is specifically responsible for witnessing the bet and the debt collectors. There is no need to worry about them. They are just black gloves who follow orders. The most important thing is the powerful people, and the most important among the powerful people are the Lu family, the Wang family, the Meng family and the Chu family. people.
It is worth mentioning that the Iron Blood Alliance of Qin State did not have the participation of the Taoist Heavenly Sect and the Human Sect. Although the local Jianghu forces in Qin State have not disappeared, they are all insignificant.
As for the wealthy businessmen, you don’t need to pay too much attention to it. Doing business these days cannot be done without a backer and strength. Behind every wealthy businessman, there is one or several dignitaries.
Getting rid of the powerful people behind the wealthy businessmen is basically the same as getting rid of the wealthy businessmen.
In the Qin State, the biggest backer behind the wealthy merchants was undoubtedly Lu Buwei, who was a big businessman. Lu Buwei was the idol of businessmen and was respected by many businessmen even in later generations.
Although not all of Qin's wealthy merchants were connected to Lu Buwei and had other backers, Lu Buwei was undoubtedly their most desired backer.
He also has the Changsheng Chamber of Commerce under his command, which controls huge funds. Coupled with his position and power, the wealthy businessmen really don't need to care.
In the final analysis, we still have to deal with the top powerful people, and then let the top powerful people deal with the next-level middle-level powerful people and small powerful people.
Among the top dignitaries, the Lu family, the Wang family, and the Meng family are the most important. As long as these three families are taken care of, there is no need to worry about the scattered relatives of the Chu family in the Iron Blood Alliance being disobedient.
If they are obedient, they can still gain benefits. If they are not obedient, they can directly join forces with the Lu, Wang, and Meng families to kick them out.
Thinking of this, Cheng Qiao's thoughts became clearer.
"Zhenri." Cheng Qiao put down the document with a calm expression, raised his head and looked at Zhenri and said in a deep voice.
"My subordinate is here."
He didn't dare to disturb Cheng Qiao's thinking, so he kept waiting silently. Hearing the call, he stood up and bowed his hands.
"Who is in charge of the Wang and Meng family now?"
Cheng Qiao usually doesn't care about these things, so he needs to ask about covering up the sun.
"Reporting to the Marquis, the Wang family is headed by Wang Ben, the eldest son of General Wang Jian, who is currently serving in the Lantian camp. The Meng family is headed by Meng Yi, the direct descendant. General Meng Ao and Meng Tianqian are leading the army outside."
"I know this. Is there enough manpower in the net to make up for the manpower vacancies left by the powerful men of various families?"
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, we have enough manpower."
"The network has expanded a lot in recent years because killers can also enjoy the military merit system. If not for careful selection, the manpower can be at least doubled on the current basis."
Zhan Ri's words were quite subtle in trying to flatter Cheng Qiao. Although they were quite subtle, they were still effective. Cheng Qiao smiled after hearing this.
"Well...well done."
"You don't have to worry about the affairs of the Qin Blood Alliance. You just need to prepare enough manpower. I will handle it personally."
"Gene Era"
"You should focus on the Six Nations Iron Blood Alliance. I hope your success will be better than that of Zhao Gao this time."
"I obey the order, thank you very much for your kind words, Lord Marquis."
Mentioning Zhao Gao, Zhenyin feels a little headache. That guy who is neither yin nor yang is really not a fuel-efficient lamp. He is very yin and has already established a certain influence in the network.
"By the way, for the sake of reporting first, you will decide two-thirds of the people who will be placed in the Iron Blood Alliance of Qin."
"The other third is decided by Zhao Gao, whether you eat meat or give soup to others."
"I obey the order." Zhan Ri's voice seemed a little brisk.
"Go do something and call Zhong Qian over when you leave."
"Here."
Zhanri bowed his hands, turned around and left neatly.
In the net, Hidden Sun's power is still stronger than that of Zhao Gao. After all, Hidden Sun has been deeply involved in the net for many years. It is impossible for Zhao Gao to surpass it for a while, unless it is possible just like in the anime.
In the anime, Zhao Gao is not the supreme leader of Luo Wang. The supreme leader is Li Si, and Zhao Gao is the direct leader of Luo Wang.
This is also a kind of check and balance. After all, the snare is a deadly weapon, but Ying Zheng still underestimated the danger of the snare.
In this world, Cheng Qiao is both the supreme leader and the direct leader. Coupled with the authority he once established, the snare is tightly controlled by Cheng Qiao.
No matter how Zhao Gao and Zhan Ri jump about, they are still controlled by Cheng Qiao in the net. Unless they start anew, they will be exposed at any time if they want to use the power of the net to make small moves.
Zhao Gao and Zhi Ri, Cheng Qiao still believe in Zhi Ri more. Even though both of them are controlled by the Five Thunder Controlling Seal, who makes Zhao Gao so famous in history?
After Zhanri left for a few breaths, a tall young man wearing a reddish-brown brocade robe, with a white face and no beard, quickly approached the main hall and bowed his hands in a very respectful manner.
"My servant pays homage to the Marquis."
"Go and post the message in person and invite Prime Minister Lu, Wang Ben, and Meng Yi to come over and have a banquet. The time should be set at Xu o'clock in the evening as much as possible."
"Here."
Zhong Qian responded respectfully, then took a few steps back, turned around, and quickly went to do something.
Afterwards, Cheng Qiao drained his teacup of snow-topped silver shuttle and turned around to go to the backyard.
It is worth mentioning that although Cheng Qiao was rich, and very rich, waste was not allowed in the mansion. This was a rule made by Cheng Qiao himself.
Whatever is made must be used up, and it will end up in people's stomachs anyway. If it is wasted, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Cheng Qiao guarantees that he will be hungry enough!
Back in the backyard, Cheng Qiao called Jing Salamander and Lan Rui over, and Mrs. Hu and Hu Meiren played mahjong together for entertainment. Seven cards and five families fought to the end. The chips were fixed. If they lost all, they had to cool off.
Regarding Cheng Qiao's ridiculous behavior, all the girls could only accept it after their protests were ineffective, and they could only pray for better luck.
…
While the Qingliang Mahjong was going on, Zhong Qian began to personally visit Lu's Mansion, Wang's Mansion, and Meng's Mansion.
As the leader of the internal servants around Cheng Qiao, Zhong Qian's reputation in Xianyang City is quite good. The three top noble houses all invited Zhong Qian into their mansions and entertained him well.
Wang Bi, Meng Yi, and Lu Buwei received the news from their servants. Although they had not gone home yet, they all chose to put down the evening entertainment and told their servants to report that they would attend the banquet on time in the evening.
When the news came back to Zhong Qian of Yonghou Mansion, Zhong Qian was not surprised. He had already ordered preparations for the evening banquet when there was no reply.
Zhong Qian didn't think that the powerful people in the court would refuse his master's invitation. Even if they were top powerful families like the Lu family, the Meng family, and the Wang family, if they offended his master, the consequences would be unpredictable.
In fact, Chengqiao's power is secondary to the power of the Middle Palace, the Changsheng Chamber of Commerce, and the power of the net. What is truly terrifying is its influence on King Qin Yingzheng, Queen Mother Zhao Ji, the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, and others.
Because of these influences, Cheng Qiao can influence or even change people's destiny with just one word. He can lift people to heaven or knock them down to hell!
In fact, it is not difficult to do. You just need to use some words to bring out the essence of the official word. For example, if you say mature and prudent as being unwilling to make progress and looking forward and backward, you can ruin a person.
…
In a blink of an eye, the hour was almost here. Cheng Qiao, who had feasted his eyes on it, estimated the time happily and went to the main entrance to greet the guests with a smile on his face.
Ordinary guests naturally do not need Cheng Qiao to come forward in person, but Lu Buwei, Wang Bi, who can represent the Wang family, and Meng Yi, who can represent the Meng family, are different. The three forces combined are quite powerful.
