Song Gongzi couldn't resist the few people who sold the muntjac, so he didn't bargain anymore, asked his subordinates to pay a hundred taels of silver, and led the muntjac away.
Seeing that Song Gongzi did not trouble those people who sold muntjac, Zhuangzi nodded with satisfaction, turned around and left.
I returned to the inn, packed my luggage, settled the accounts with the innkeeper, and went to the checkpoint.
In the summer of 348 BC, Zhuangzi came to the state of Qi.
This was Zhuangzi's first visit to Qi, but this time he stayed in Qi for a short time.
After learning that his mother was held hostage by Dai Daguan, he went back to the Song State and went to the capital of the Song State to find his mother and find Dai Daguanren.
The Qi State and the Song State are just a checkpoint, but the situation of the two countries is completely different.
Entering the country of Qi, it makes people feel thriving.
In the border area between Qi and Song, you will see people and crops every three or five places.
Every seven or eight miles, there will be a very concentrated village.
In this village, there are usually markets, inns, liquor stores, etc.
His home country, Song, is completely different.
At the junction of the Song Kingdom and the surrounding countries, there were generally no people for several or dozens of miles.
The population of the Song Kingdom was concentrated far from the border, far from the war, even if the land there was not fertile, even if the population there was dense.
In addition, the Song State was originally a vassal state with little land area, but the population was very small.
There is a serious imbalance between the proportion of population and land ownership.
If there was a population, if people dared to live on the border, the population of the Song Kingdom could be doubled However, the Song State suffered from wars and turmoil for many years, and there were constant internal power struggles.
The contenders for imperial power do not manage the affairs of the state at all, do not care about the life and death of the people and the future of the country, but they are all engaged in endless power struggles.
It's as if you have power, you have everything, and you don't even think about having power is only temporary.
If you don't continue to fight with others, the power and wealth you have worked so hard to gain will be just a flash in the pan.
Even in the process of fighting, he gave his life early.
Looking at the prosperity of the Qi State, Zhuangzi even had an impulse, that is, to give up preaching, go back and continue to be his Qiyuan official, and then climb up from the Qiyuan Xiaoguan to become a bigger official.
To manage more and bigger places to make your home country strong.
At this time, Zhuangzi still did not have the kind of idea of the old man, so he went to "Zhuang's to take the Song" and became the king of the Song Kingdom.
We should better manage our own country and lead the people of our home country to become rich and well-off.
At this time, he wanted to become an official just to build his home country well.
After sighing, Zhuangzi's heart slowly calmed down.
Back to reality, he still has to preach Again, he wants to save not only the people of his home country, but the whole world.
His mission in life was to preach the word, to spread the word to everyone in the world.
Let everyone in the world believe in the Tao and live according to the Tao.
A few days later, I came to a new type of city in Qi with a good scale.
According to the locals, this is the closest city to the Song Kingdom, and it is a new type of city - Guyuan City Guyuan City is also a military important place of the Qi State, which is an important city specially used to go west out of the Song State and the western vassal states, and it is also an important city to guard the west of the Qi State.
Guyuan City was originally a large market town, and later because of the needs of military strategy, with the approval of the Marquis of Qi and later King Qi Wei, the city was built.
After entering Guyuan City, Zhuangzi first found an inn to live in, and then began to inquire about the affairs of Qi and became familiar with Qi State.
Regarding the news about his mother, Rong'er and Sister Qing'er, he didn't get specific news when he came.
He just heard that Rong'er and Qing'er may have been taken in by the Qi State, and became Qi people for the Qi State.
Most likely, they all changed their names.
It is very likely that her mother has no identity, she is in Qi country, but she has no legal identity.
For her, there is no identity in the first place, and there is no need for identity.
It's the same with the end of the world, and there is no need for an identity.
Qing'er is hidden in the countryside, rarely in contact with the outside world, and the protectors and others who come to inquire are not as lucky and persistent as Tianya Wuming and Dai Liu'er.
Rong'er is hidden in the capital, and ordinary people can't imagine it.
Besides, she is protected by Dai Liu'er behind her, and if she doesn't understand the identity of the other party, Dai Liu'er won't tell others.
Therefore, those who were sent to search or voluntarily came to find out the whereabouts of Qing'er and Rong'er.
Dai Daguan's people also inadvertently inquired, and after many confirmations, the identities of Rong'er and Dai Liu'er were determined.

Zhuangzi didn't know the news of his mother, Rong'er and Qing'er, but Dai Liu'er and them knew Zhuangzi's whereabouts very well.
The news that Zhuangzi had come to Qi to find someone soon reached the ears of Dai Liu'er and others.
After inquiring around in Guyuan, a protector revealed the news to Zhuangzi in the form of small talk with people. told the whereabouts of Dai Liu'er, Rong'er, and Qing'er Zhuangzi didn't know that this protector was a friend of his mother Dai Liu'er, and he deliberately revealed the news to him.
"The one called Shen Rong'er is very likely to be the granddaughter of the chief disciple of the Mo family.
There is also a masked old woman, I am very suspicious, she is the world-famous Mo family double sword Dai Liu'er.
The one named Shen Rong'er opened a bamboo workshop in the capital, and the business was very large.
The old masked woman, protecting her in secret" "What Rong'er killed someone, how could she dare to kill someone, why did she kill Tian Wen, the son of Tian Yi, the old minister of Qi State?"
When he heard that Rong'er was related to the murder of Tian Wen, Zhuangzi couldn't believe it again. felt that this Rong'er might not be the Rong'er he was looking for.
In his impression, Rong'er is a good girl, and it is impossible to have the courage to kill.
And it was the most favored son of the favored ministers of the Qi State who killed Rong'er, how could he have a grudge against this Tian Wentian son Zhuangzi wanted to go over and ask, but when people found him, they slipped away one by one as if they were afraid.
Just as Zhuangzi was about to leave, another news came from the restaurant that shocked him.
Korea reached an alliance with Wei and Zhao to launch a crusade against Song.
South Korea sent troops in advance and attacked overnight, and had already captured two cities of the Song Kingdom.
"There is gossip that the Wei State is preparing to send troops to Qiyuan to seize the big granary of the Song State" "Ah, what are you talking about, if the Wei State seizes the Qi Garden of the Song State, then the Song State will be finished, you must know how much grain the Qi Garden can hand over to the Song State in a year."
"There are only a few grain-producing areas in the Song Kingdom, and the lacquer garden is one of them":
