Qiu Luan has suffered a lot of losses, and he is still a solid one.

Since then, he has realized a truth,

This year, if you are finished, even your own sister will bully you.

In a word, let's get stronger!

It's just that it's easy to say, but it's hard to do.

After thinking about it, he came up with the idea after learning that his sister and a few business partners were planning to overhaul the railroad.

Aren't you going to build roads?

Do you want labor?

Do you want food?

If this is all from the Ming Dynasty, will it exhaust countless deaths, and even provoke civil uprisings? At that time, the imperial court will not be responsible, and the officials will not take the blame.

They will only say that this is the greed of the businessman, and the business chaos is the government, and as a result, a few heads were cut off and the businessman's property was confiscated to appease people's hearts.

"Big brother, look at what you said? Would the imperial court do that? Don't forget, we're not ordinary people......"

"Hahaha!" Qiu Luan laughed, laughing so much that tears came out.

"I said, sister, do you really think you're amazing? Let me ask you, is Wang Yue's father a businessman? ”

"Yes! Businessmen, of course. ”

"Then do you see what Lao Wang does?"

"This ...... No! Qiu Ying was indeed very confused, "Big brother, did you hear something?" ”

"Nope!"

Qiu Luan shook his head like a rattle, "Sister, the old king is calculating, if he doesn't touch the things on the face, he can't catch his handle, people make stable money, unlike you, the stall is quite big, it looks like he has a lot of money, but he has more debts...... Just the way you do business, just take a shot, and with a light touch, you will fall! ”

Qiu Luan smiled, but it really scared Qiu Ying.

This is really her weakness, and she actually makes the eldest brother say it well, looking at it this way, he is not so incompetent!

"Big brother, what can you do?"

"Sister...... Are you a big brother? Qiu Luan crossed Erlang's legs and smiled.

Qiu Ying groaned slightly, and immediately changed to a smiling face.

"It's all a family, supporting each other, what do you ask for! The eldest brother can't bear to watch the little sister being eaten and wiped clean? ”

Qiu Luan snorted coldly, you dead girl, when you pit my food, you didn't talk so well.

"Sister, brother thinks, in the final analysis, we must have our own strength, and we must have a value that cannot be replaced by others...... Earning money is put in a secondary position, and the key is that it cannot be replaced! You see, Cui Shilin is holding the two cards of the Japanese Kingdom and North Korea, and no one can touch him. As for Yang Bo, since marrying Antalun, half of Mongolia has to listen to him, and with the support of Jin merchants, he is also as stable as Mount Tai. If we want to stand, we also need to find a place. Annan is a good foundation! ”

Qiu Ying pondered for a moment and nodded heavily, "Big brother, you're right, but how to start, little sister hasn't figured it out yet." ”

"It's not that hard...... The land in Annam is fertile, the rain is abundant, and it is the best grain producing area. Casually, you can get millions of stones. In my judgment, the imperial court must have the heart to accept Annam. Didn't you see that? Many people in the DPRK and China are clamoring for the unification of Kyushu! This Kyushu, can it not include Jiaozhou? ”

Qiu Ying nodded, "Big brother, what you said is so right, then what do you think, what can we do?" ”

"It's very simple, it's to set up a reclamation team...... We are going to sell the Annan people to Daming and use them as cheap labor to build roads for you. Then, organize a group of people to go to Annam to reclaim the land and plant rice and sugarcane...... This is a business that makes a lot of money, and I don't covet it at all, so I give it to my sister. ”

"But there is one point, to transport grain back, you always need a fleet, right? When cultivating in the local area, someone must protect it! The name of my brother, an incompetent coward, is well known in Daming. But in Annam, the eldest brother is revered as a bloody butcher! I caught the king of Annam, I sold the grain, and I threw anyone who dared not to sell it into the sea to feed the fish. With my brother's little reputation, I can always bluff a few people! ”

"As long as my sister is willing to help, our family is in Gansu, and there are still many old departments. Their lives are also tight, and the imperial court always has to lay off military households. Isn't this something ready-made? Give these people to the eldest brother, let the eldest brother train them, and then scatter them to Annan to serve as a bodyguard for his sister...... Say, who would object to this? The big guys are profitable, and when we gain a firm foothold in Annan, who else will dare to touch you? ”

……

I have to say that setbacks make people progress, who would have expected that Qiu Luan also has the ability to fool people.

This is a real success!

With the support of his sister and a few wealthy merchants, he got more than 300 elite thugs, and in addition, he also gathered more than twenty ships, the largest of which was thirty percent on deck alone, and ten bronze cannons.

Almost overnight, Qiu Luan became one of the top three pirates in East Asia.

He told his sister about Annan, but in fact, Qiu Luan stretched out his hand to Champa and even Java, and he also established a stronghold in Malacca, the ambition of this goods, that is quite big!

"Come on! Let's make trouble! ”

Qiu Luan was full of confidence, "Let those guys in Jiangnan make trouble!" Also cut off the transport? It's really self-defeating, let me tell you, as long as the people of Annan don't die, Lao Tzu will never admit defeat! ”

……

These big clans in Jiangnan didn't expect that the blow they had been brewing for a long time would be ruined in the hands of "incompetent cowards", why did their faces be a little swollen!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty is on a tour of the south to promote the change of law. The servant thought that this was appropriate, and was resisted, which proved that he had to change! Dare to blackmail the court, be mad, and never tolerate connivance! The Cabinet and the Sixth Ministry must show an attitude and support His Majesty. ”

Zhang Xuan was murderous, and after more than half a day of consultations, he issued several orders in the name of the cabinet...... First, the local Qingzhang must be promoted, and no discount is allowed.

In addition, the original river yamen had to be trained by the Tianjin Shipping Division to prepare for the establishment of a special customs office in the future!

Zhang Zhang's hand is wonderful.

Because of the abolition of Cao Yun, the most affected is the river yamen, which is directly facing the risk of unemployment.

In the Ming Dynasty, if you make people unemployed, they will really revolt.

The scrap transportation and the establishment of customs gave these people a way out.

After all, water transportation and shipping are inseparable from water, and both are taxed, which is even more of a problem.

In this way, constantly peeling off the cocoon, it has become more and more clear who is obstructing the change, and it is almost possible to close the net.

Wang Yue and Zhu Houxi had already begun to set up, but an unexpected news came.

"Your Majesty, the minister has just heard that there are riotous people armed and rushing into the people's houses, killing and looting. not only swept away the wealth of the family, but also robbed several female dependents. In broad daylight, the sky is bright, and such an act is really angry and resentful! ”

Li Mo played loudly, his voice was loud, and he was filled with righteous indignation.

Zhu Houxi didn't squeak, but looked at Wang Yue, Wang Yue also learned to twist his head, and his eyes fell on Huang Jin.

The little fat man was not stupid, and hurriedly said: "Emperor, such a big thing, let's listen to it more!" The slave maid thought that it would be best to invite Lord Lu Binglu to ask. ”

Zhu Houxi finally nodded, and Li Mo also smiled, Lu Bing was his student, and he had been studying with him for the past few years, learning the ethics of the Gangchang and how to serve the king.

As a disciple, do you dare to betray Master?

Looking at it this way, it's foolproof.

After a short time, Lu Bing bowed in, and after giving a salute, Zhu Houxi said: "Lu Bing, have you heard that there are rioters entering the house to loot?" ”

"Your Majesty...... These people are not rioters, and the people they invade are not ordinary people! ”

As soon as Lu Bing's words came out, Li Mo's old face instantly darkened, rebel, do you dare to go against the master?

Zhu Houxi smiled, "Not a rioter? What is that? ”

"It's a Caogong!"

"Caogong?"

"That's right!" Lu Bingdao: "Your Majesty, these days, Your Majesty and Lord Wang have worked tirelessly to communicate with Caogong, and now many Caogong have changed their attitude and support the decision-making of the imperial court, but some people blindly oppose it, and even gather crowds to threaten Caogong. ”

Lu Bing paused and said: "The reason for this incident is that a wealthy businessman family is not allowed to let his subordinates go to the class, so he connived at the thugs and tied up the family members of the workers. After hearing the news, several leaders of the Caogong, with hundreds of people and sticks, rushed to the home of this large family and rescued the family members of the Caogong.

Zhu Houxi bowed his head, "I see! ”

"Li Mo, did you hear clearly?"

"Clear."

"And what do you think?"

Li Mo was extremely embarrassed, especially since this embarrassment was given by his disciple, his old face was even redder, but he was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Your Majesty, the minister was indeed too anxious to inquire in detail. But when the minister heard what Lu Bing's commander said, he still couldn't help but worry in his heart! ”

"Oh? Where do your worries come from? ”

"Your Majesty, those workers are pampered and arrogant, and regard Your Majesty's mercy as a reliance on doing whatever they want. Take this time as an example, they gathered hundreds of people at every turn, rushed directly into other people's homes in broad daylight, if they didn't deal with it, I am afraid that one day, they would dare to rush into the yamen! ”

Zhu Houxi bowed his head, "Listen to that!" Wang Yue, what do you say? ”

Wang Yue smiled: "Of course the minister also sees it this way, but the minister doesn't understand it a little...... Why is it that big families have thugs in their hands, and kidnapping family members is nothing? When the workers organize to save people, is it a great crime? Li Mo, you are a double standard! ”
