Xiao He calmly analyzed: "Now that our trade route with Raoan has been cut off, and the net will be fully entered into Zhao State. Each city is guarded by Qin soldiers, and merchants from all over the country cannot enter Dai County. Even our transactions with the Xiongnu will be affected."

"If we rely solely on our own industries, then the development of Dai County will be seriously hindered."

Long before the battle between Qin and Zhao began, Jiang Yu and Xiao He had discussed this issue countless times, but it was not solved for a while.

In the past, Zhao soldiers were guarding the territory of Zhao, so Jiang Xi didn't even need to deal with the upper and lower levels. Those caravans only needed to show Jiang Xi or Pang Li's tokens and could enter any city in Zhao at will.

Even the goods they carry don't need to be inspected.

Then now Zhao has been completely taken over by Qin. Not to mention entering the city, even walking in the wild may be exposed.

Without Rao An's secret help, without trade with the Huns, Jiang Hu's own industry, he might be able to barely maintain the food, grass and military pay of the 200,000 army, but it is extremely difficult to develop Dai County, let alone expand its power.

Xiao He continued: "In order to replace the county's current output, the goods we can sell to the Huns include coal, salt, wool products, a small part of grain, and other materials."

"My subordinates have calculated before that if Rao An and local merchants support us, our annual interests will be reduced to 30%.

Jiang Qi frowned slightly, is it less than one-third of what he used to be?

Building a city and developing forces are both a long-term task, but what Jiang Xi lacks the most now is time.

Dai County has developed to its current scale and can be regarded as a military fortress and the most powerful city in the Warring States Period. However, in terms of people's livelihood, there is still a gap compared with those rich cities.

Not to mention completely surpassing those cities.

The world is about to be in chaos, and refugees will also arise everywhere. Jiang Yu also wants to take this opportunity to accept refugees and build a city within his fiefdom.

Jiang Yu's fiefdom was not a city in Dai County, but a large area of ​​land including Dai County.

If Ying Zheng rewards Jiang Yu again, building a city will not be just a fantasy.

With the people of the two cities, when Jiang Yu led his army south, he might be able to pull up another army of 200,000 people.

Even if the new army has no combat power, it can still help Jiang Xi guard those cities that have been captured.

All Jiang Yan's plans require money.

Jiang Xi sighed: "It turns out that people are poor and everything is over!"

"The Qin State's blockade is actually fine. We can use money to open a trade route. But if we lose the support of the merchants and nobles of the six Eastern countries, we will be unable to move forward."

Xiao He said a little puzzledly: "Marty, does a mere Yan State have such great influence?"

Jiang Yu shook his head and said lightly: "This is no longer just a problem with Yan State. When the deceased nobles of the six eastern countries are united, they are complete."

"Our marquis was originally a general of Zhao State. After surrendering to Qin, he helped Qin attack Yan. In the eyes of these people, this marquis was a betrayer."

"And the betrayer... is often more disgusting than the enemy!"

"Once these people start to influence, the consequences will probably be more serious than we think."

Xiao He nodded, feeling a little scared.

The vast majority of the wealth in the world is only in the hands of a few people.

Take Jiang Yu as an example. Jiang Yu once said arrogantly that as long as he gave his order, he could form an economic blockade on Yan State. No merchant from Zhao, Qi, Wei, and South Korea dared to sell goods to Yan State.

The exiled nobles of the six Eastern countries all have great influence in the local area. As long as these people join forces, they can easily block the economy of Dai County, even destroy Jiang Yan's reputation.

Especially in the world's anti-Qin camp, Jiang Yu will have a bad reputation.

In the 21st century, journalists were called the Uncrowned King because they had mastered public opinion.

In ancient times, these wealthy families represented public opinion. If they said a word, they would have a huge influence in the local area.

Yan Fei frowned and said, "Will Ying Zheng definitely ask the Marquis to lead the troops to attack Yan?"

Jiang Xi sighed softly: "Above the eighth floor!"

"And it is not to let this marquis attack Yan, but to let this marquis order Dai County to send troops to assist Qin's attack Yan."

"Ying Zheng will keep this marquis in Xianyang and take strict supervision. At that time, the county will only have the military orders of this marquis, but it will not be able to convey the ideas of this marquis."

Yan Fei said: "But we already know what the marquis mean..."

"no!"

Jiang Xi said lightly: "Do you think Ying Zheng is a fool? He will not only send someone to monitor this marquis, but also send someone to monitor your every move."

"This is a test and an opportunity for me to completely cut off from the six Eastern countries."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yan suddenly thought of someone.

With a chuckling, Jiang Xi said lightly: "You don't need to worry about this matter. If there is someone, you can definitely help me!"

Yan Lingji said curiously: "Who is your husband talking about?"

"Right Prime Minister of Qin, Lord Changping!"

Jiang Xu said arrogantly: "Ying Zheng was afraid that Ying Zheng would never have imagined that there was the largest anti-Qin force in his Qin camp!"

"As long as Changpingjun is willing to help me explain, my marquis' situation will be much better!"

Xiao He thought about it and smiled lightly: "But the Marquis is probably going to prepare a remark to fool Changpingjun!"

Jiang Xu nodded slightly, said 'eun', then looked at Xiao He and said, "If Changpingjun is willing to help me speak, the forces of all countries will also give me face. At that time, our trade with the Huns can be re-established."

"Mr. Xiao He, do it. In this way, how big is the gap between our future interests compared to before?"

Xiao He thought for a moment and said, "It can be roughly restored to 80% of the previous one!"

Jiang Yu nodded and said with satisfaction: "In this way, many of our previous plans can be unfolded!"

Xiao He reminded: "But the Marquis must be extremely careful when he goes to Xianyang. Ying Zheng is not scary, but some despicable villains in Qin, I hope the Marquis must be extremely careful."

Jiang Xi smiled and said, "It's okay! What I like most is villains. As long as I find their desires, they can use them for me."

"Even Guo Kai, Chunpingjun, Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei and others, who were not fooled and applauded by this marquis?"

"On the contrary, those stubborn and unreal gentlemen are the real tricky ones!"

Xiao He said: "Since the Marquis has such confidence, then I will wait for the Marquis to return safely!"

"soon!"

Jiang Xi roughly speculated and said lightly: "If this marquis sends troops to attack Yan, after the battle between Qin and Yan is over, this marquis should be able to return to Dai County!"

"Xuan Jian, when this marquis is not here, I will leave the peace of Dai County to you!"

"As for the net... don't arrest it like before. The arrest is too loud. As long as the killing is silent, no one will have any problems!"

"But you have to stop at the right time... For those who are not threatened, surveillance is enough!"
Chapter completed!
