Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There is no dispute between the number one in the state of Qi and the number one in the state of Lu. Others, even the jade lady of the state of Chu, have not been recognized by the number one in the state of Chu.

    However, through competitions, swordsmen from other countries have gradually emerged. It¡¯s not that they are weak if they don¡¯t have the title of number one. The reason why they don¡¯t have the title of number one is that they haven¡¯t had the chance to become famous yet.

    Although Yu Niang of Chu State is a rare female swordsman, she is surprisingly powerful and her reputation is gradually rising.

    The swordsman Bailisha of the Jin State also stood out. The Jin State is also a big country. Although there has been civil strife some time ago, the one who took over the hegemony after the Qi State was the Jin State. The current situation in the Jin State is that Duke Xian of Jin is killing the public clan.  , promote scholar-bureaucrats.

    The so-called public clan is actually people with noble titles. Most of them are related to the monarch, especially brothers and nephews, who have the right to inherit the monarch.  The king of Jin crazily killed the clans and rewarded the clans' fiefdoms to the scholar-bureaucrats. Although it did prevent relatives from usurping the throne, it also allowed the scholar-bureaucrats to become bigger and stronger, paving the way for the future division of the three families into the Jin Dynasty.

    Duke Xiang of Jin also had great talents and great ambitions, and had the ambition to dominate the world. However, he did not have Guan Zhong of his own, so although he was eager to make Qi stronger, all he could do was kill the nobles and promote officials, hoping to meet someone as outstanding as Guan Zhong.  Talents.

    Bailisha, a swordsman from the Jin Kingdom, displayed the tough style of the Jin Kingdom and was qualified to participate in the sword fight in front of the palace.

    Feng Shiwu, Cao Mo, Yu Niang, and Bai Lisha are at completely different levels from the other swordsmen. Every time they fight, they are instantly killed, so everyone knows that the sword master must be among these four.

    Toyo Shitake suggested to the monarch that the four of them could use real swords if they were to fight. Because the four's swordsmanship had reached the state of being able to retract and release freely, there was no need to worry about hurting someone by mistake when using real swords. Instead, they could use real swords.  Let the four show their true strength.

    Xiaobai agreed, but Guan Zhong suggested that for the sake of fairness, it would be better for the Qi State to recast the four iron swords, so that there would be no gap between the superior swords and the inferior swords, and it would be fair to the four swordsmen.

    Xiaobai said: "Okay, I heard that Cao Mo's sword was just a bronze sword, while Feng Shiwu had the sharp sword of Qi in his hand. Such a fight is indeed unfair. According to what Zhongfu said, it will be up to Qi.  The best swordsmiths forged swords for these four swordsmen.¡±

    "yes."

    The swordsmiths have started working one after another to make four similar swords, so the swordsmiths are also working hard, working hard day and night, clanging and clanging.

    "Well, I also want a new sword." Qin swordsman Ying Fang expressed his admiration for the four swordsmen with a thick accent, but looking at the three gold sword coins in his hand, he knew that it was impossible for him  Got a new sword.

    Ying Fang's three gold sword coins were not the original three. He had failed and continued to challenge. Over and over again, he finally maintained three gold sword coins. He had played six games, with three wins and three losses. It seemed impossible to participate.  Sword fight in front of the palace.

    The bronze sword in his hand has become rusty. Although Ying Fang takes good care of it, it is a pity that time is so ruthless.  After going through all kinds of hardships to come to Linzi, I have gained more knowledge and understood the gap between myself and famous swordsmen. I have gained a lot. If I can buy another sword in Qi, it will be complete.

    ??????????????????? But after looking at myself, I was dressed in rags and rags, and I really couldn¡¯t afford a sword.  But if you don't buy it in Qi State, you won't be able to encounter such a good sword again if you return to the bitter and cold land of Qin State.

    The Qin State was very miserable and was suppressed in the west by the Jin State. Although the Qin State absorbed many people from the Western Zhou Dynasty when the Emperor of Zhou moved eastward, it undoubtedly still lagged behind the other countries in the Central Plains in terms of technology, culture, and economy.

    Although the state of Qin is thirsty for talents, which country in the world does not seek talents now?  Let¡¯s talk about the Qi State¡¯s ¡°respecting the virtuous and advocating merit¡±, which means respecting the virtuous and rewarding those who have merit. Now that the Qi State is so rich, the talent siphon effect is obvious. Talents all over the world like to run east, who will eat sand from the west?

    ??The State of Qin finally got a Bailixi, who was a slave of the State of Jin who was married to the State of Qin. He was originally a high official of a small country that was casually destroyed by the State of Jin. He was a person whom the State of Jin did not like at all.

    The conditions are poor, and there is also the threat of Xirong.  In the past, during the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Emperor Zhou fought with the Xirong every day. Later, when the country's strength failed, the Xirong directly attacked the Western Zhou Dynasty. The Emperor Zhou ran to Luoyang in despair and handed over the mess to Qin.  Now it is Qin's turn to fight Xirong every day, and the pressure to survive is huge.

    In short, the Qin State really requires people who are hard-working and not afraid of death to go there. The conditions are too bad.  Naturally, the swordsmiths of Qin were not as strong as those of Qi. Ying Fang wondered whether he should stay and work in Qi to earn some money to exchange swords before returning to Qin.

    ¡°Speaking of it, I no longer have any financial problems, so even if I want to go back to Qin, it would be difficult for me now.  Thinking of this, Ying Fang decided to join Guan Zhong and become Guan Zhong's disciple.

    ? ?Fang Fang believed that although his swordsmanship was not as good as that of the four great swordsmen, it was still at a certain level. After he accomplished a few things under Guan Zhong and made money, it would not be too late to return home in glory.

    The outer courtyard of Guan Zhong's residence is the residence of the tourists. All the scholars who come to seek refuge can live there after registering. Every month, someone will come to ask questions to the scholars, and those who can provide insights will be rewarded.

    Ying Fang naturally meets the conditions. Even if they don't get the reward, Guan Zhong will not drive them away and let them stay for their retirement.  Because they are prepared, they never know when they will be able to use their skills, even if they are old.

    Just like in the famous article "Zhu Zhiwu Retreats the Qin Army", Zhu Zhiwu complained that the king did not come to him when he was young. When he was old and useless, he came to him again to persuade the Qin army to retreat.  In the end, Zhu Zhiwu did it. Although he was old, he was still getting stronger.  It can be seen that sometimes scholars only have the opportunity to show their strength when they get older.  Therefore, even if he could not develop his talents in his whole life, Guan Zhong would still support these scholars.

    Later, when the Tian family replaced Qi, raising scholars became the national policy of Qi. Jixia Academy was opened, which became the most powerful promoter of the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Warring States Period.

    Ying Fang came to the outer courtyard and settled in easily. As the most special class of 'shi' in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, dependence was their characteristic. They were not engaged in production and had no land, so they had to depend on dignitaries and travel around at the same time.  Being at the bottom, he understands the sufferings of the people, so he can put forward various pragmatic suggestions.

    "Guan Zhong's outer courtyard is like a small United Nations. There are not only people from Qin, but also people from Jin, Chu, and Song Ying Fang is inconspicuous here, but he is still very happy to meet fellow villagers.  What made him even more happy was that there was a sword furnace in the outer courtyard, where swords were made. As a swordsman, how could he not be attracted by the hot furnace, the dark charcoal, the hard ore, and the clanging hammering?  ?

    Just like humans can't refuse large machines, swordsmen can't refuse the swordsmith's performance. Ying Fang squats by the sword stove whenever he has time, watching it with fascination, his mouth is watering, how he hopes to start from  Forge a sword of your own in the sword furnace.
