Chapter 359 Selling Information
In social relations, no one can do something on his own.
Even for small things like cooking, from ingredients to utensils for cooking food, you need to rely on the power of others.
A bowl of ordinary white rice must be served by the joint efforts of the farmer, blacksmith and chef. Only when it is carefully considered, it will take countless manpower to build a canal to irrigate the farmland.
Because of this, cooperation is everywhere.
If you want to cooperate with others, the first thing both parties must do is to have common interests. If both parties have different positions, they must grasp the other party’s weaknesses and use their own advantages to make up for the other party’s weaknesses.
The benefits Li Si wanted were very simple, including official positions, powers, and assisting the king in achieving great achievements and being famous in history.
At this point, Li Si is more pure than Lu Buwei, Changpingjun and others.
As for Li Si's weakness, it is even more obvious.
Before becoming an official, Li Si was just a commoner and had no power or power in the seven countries. He could use the reputation of the disciples of Confucian Xun, but he could not use the power of Confucianism.
Currently, Li Si has no foundation, lacks background and connections. Although he is an official of the King of Qin, he is not valued by the King of Qin.
In the original history, Li Si really entered the sight of the King of Qin because of the "Letter of Admonition to Exile the Guests" and was gradually promoted and reused by the King of Qin.
At this time, Li Si was just a minor official in Qin State, barely considered the guest minister of the King of Qin.
And the help Jiang can provide to Li Si is very clear.
intelligence!
If you want to do big things, you must not lack intelligence.
As the Qin envoy, Li Si had help from Zhao, but Luo Wang was not Li Si's power after all.
After listening to Jiang's words, Li Si was a little moved.
Although Li Si didn't know how many ears and ears Jiang had in Xianyang, Qin State, it was not difficult to judge by observing Jiang's past behavior that Jiang had penetrated deeply into the seven countries.
But Li Si also knew that cooperating with Jiang was tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger. Although this tiger was not in Qin, it could still not exist in the corpse that he could swallow.
Jiang has his own interests, and Li Si also has them.
After thinking about it, Li Si Ningsheng asked: "Senior brother is valued by the king. Jiang Hou is in Zhao State, how can he interfere in Qin's internal affairs?"
Jiang smiled playfully and said with a smile: "The ambition of the King of Qin is contrary to Han Fei's ambition. If Qin goes east, he will destroy Han first to fear other countries. Lord Li only needs to make this suggestion in front of the King of Qin, and Han Fei will definitely try his best to dissuade him. At the beginning, the King of Qin may have to endure it, but over time, the King of Qin will definitely be impatient."
"Compared with the ambitions of the King of Qin and the great cause of Qin, Han Fei is not worth mentioning."
A glimmer flashed in Li Si's eyes. Qin State must first destroy Han when he came out of the east. This is the opinion of many people in Qin. It is not surprising that Jiang can see through this.
But Jiang Neng analyzed the actions of Han Fei and King Qin above this, which shows that Jiang has a deep study of these two people.
Li Si bowed slightly and asked again: "So what about Changpingjun?"
Jiang sneered and said slowly: "Mr. Li, Changping Jun is a good chess! What's the point of keeping him for a few years?"
Li Si snorted softly when he heard this, "Will Mr. Jiang break his promise so quickly?"
Jiang sorted out his messy clothes and smiled lightly: "Han Fei and .31xs. Changping Jun are the common enemies of this Hou and Lord Li. But these two are different. Changping Jun is quite hiding and has the support of Chu. If you want to defeat such a person, you must first let him lose his footing."
"If Qin Chu had no war, Changping Jun would never let you seize any handle. But as long as Changping Jun moves, Lord Li's opportunity will come."
Li Si said without comment: "What Jiang Hou said is right, but whether it is senior brother or Changping Jun, as long as the wheel of history is rolling forward, these two people are unable to fight against the general trend. Even if Li does not have the help of Jiang Hou, he can easily get rid of these two people."
Jiang Xiao said, "Mr. Li is not a puppet of Xunzi, but he can see through the flaws in my husband's words at a glance."
After pausing, Jiang continued, "But one thing, Lord Li may not have figured it out yet. In these two things, how should Lord Li gain benefits? Without the help of this marquis, Lord Li may have to be a bystander!"
"Just like this rebellion, Lord Li is afraid that there is no room for intervention as a mere minister!"
Jiang's words hit Li Si's painful foot.
As the chief minister of Qin, Li Si could provide advice for the King of Qin to seek appreciation from the King of Qin.
But the position of Chief Shi is only a minor official of Qin State, and Li Si has no room for intervention in many matters.
Who is the biggest contributor to the eradication?
Changpingjun!
If you cannot intervene, you cannot make meritorious contributions. If you have no merit, you cannot be promoted. If you cannot be promoted, you cannot intervene in many things.
This is a vicious cycle.
Jiang said lightly: "Since Lord Li has seen through the haunted palace, he should know the plan of this marquis. This marquis asks Lord Li to stay in Handan for a while. In a few days, this marquis and the general will jointly perform military exercises outside Handan City, and invite Lord Li to come and watch."
Li Si asked: "Joint military exercise?"
Jiang chuckled and said, "When the king was in a new mourning, I marquis and the general showed off their strength and shocked other countries."
"After Lord Li returns to China, he can report to the King of Qin truthfully when he sees and hears from Zhao State. The springboard from Qin State to the east can only be South Korea."
Li Si nodded slightly and pondered in his heart.
Jiang's intention was very clear. Jiang had no intention of trying to win over Li Si. The two were just using each other to eliminate their common enemies.
Jiang invited Li Si into the mansion today, but he did not want Li Si to participate in the filth between him and King Zhao.
If Li Si hadn't seen through the haunted palace, Jiang wouldn't have needed to invite Li Si at all.
As Li Si said before, as long as the wheel of history rolls forward, Han Fei and Changpingjun will inevitably be crushed into powder.
Jiang Xunuo helped Li Si seek benefits in these two things, but the premise was to make Li Si forget the haunted palace.
As for the joint military exercise proposed by Jiang, he naturally claimed to be showing off his military power to shock the enemy country.
But in fact, Li Si made Zhao make new contributions.
Jiang just needed to reveal a little secret at will, which was enough to make Li Si respected by the King of Qin.
Li Si had been on missions to South Korea and Zhao respectively, and naturally understood the situation of the two countries. After Li Si had seen the force of Zhao, he could naturally propose to the King of Qin to "destroy Han first".
In this way, Li Si officially entered the eyes of the King of Qin.
If Han Fei wanted to prevent Qin from destroying Han, he would inevitably have a dispute with the King of Qin and would be rejected by the King of Qin.
As Han Fei's spare tire, Li Si will be further relied on by the King of Qin.
Understanding this, Li Si bowed slightly and said, "The nets of eyes and ears are all over the seven countries. I hope Mr. Jiang will prepare early."
