Chapter 934: The Beginning of the Great Voyage

After drawing the grand blueprint, the next step is to divide the cake. This is also the most apprehensive part of everyone's hearts, negotiation requires bargaining chips, and after Li Mu finished drawing the grand blueprint, everyone has no bargaining chips in their hands, and now everyone wants to be like the Xiao family, to be Li Mu's lackey, and once Li Mu refuses, it will be followed by the rebellion of the people, and they will be suppressed, even if they are not suppressed, they will not develop. When Li Mu built Jiaozhou Port, Mingzhou Port, built a military port, and organized a fleet, he controlled the sea control, and at that time, don't say that a small family, the vast sea, there will be no opponent for him, who he wants to clean up, isn't it just a matter of thought?

Therefore, now there is no way for the two sides to negotiate, and one side has lost the qualification to negotiate.

Everyone looked at Li Mu and waited for his verdict. But Li Mu didn't do this, he didn't mention the allocation of this stubble, but said: "The conditions given by Ben Hou have been placed here. How do you want to choose, tell me for yourself. As long as you don't go too far, don't measure yourself, it's easy to discuss, but ugly words are also said ahead, if someone dares to open his mouth and entertain Benhou, then don't blame me for turning my face and being ruthless! ”

Everyone didn't dare to say anything, Gu Sizhi, as a respected elder, stood up on behalf of everyone and said: "Master Hou, I don't know if you can allow me to discuss it, tomorrow-"

"Ben Hou's time is precious, so I don't have so much time to wait for you. Give you three hours, and before evening, there must be a result. ”

Li Mu said that, and went back to the room to rest. Only the people who looked at each other were left, in Li Mu's place, everyone did not dare to speak, and finally Gu Sizhi brought it up, nearby, the Gu family ran a rice shop, although it was a little simple, but this was not the time to enjoy, and there was no need for a good place to discuss things.

When everyone came to the rice shop, someone immediately complained, asking Gu Sizhi how Wang Rui's words reached Li Mu's ears. How could Gu Sizhi bear such a charge, and immediately ridiculed each other, and the two sides almost fought. Half an hour passed, and the argument didn't come up with anything. In the end, it was Zhu Qing, the elder of the Zhu family, who stopped everyone and said, "Is there any point in checking this now?" Hou Ye only gave three hours, and now half an hour has passed, if you don't hurry up, you can't get a result from the discussion, what will the consequences be, have you thought clearly? ”

The people who were already arguing with red faces calmed down. Everyone is not a chick anymore, and they know when it is important, and after calming down, they don't delay things and discuss it seriously.

Li Mu's side didn't care about how they discussed, in his eyes, as long as he wanted to do something, someone could do it, as for whether the Gu family did it or the Wang family, it made no difference to him. But those who don't cooperate have to be cleaned up, it's as simple as that.

What he thinks about is more macroscopic. After all, all the details are ultimately in the service of a big purpose.

The big purpose of Li Mu's consideration is the ocean.

He wants to get the right to control the sea, in a sentence from the comparison of the second in his previous life, his real goal is the sea of stars! This is also the best solution he can think of, without having an irreconcilable conflict with Li Shimin, and can get out of the whole body. This is also the best way he can think of, not to affect the major trajectory of history, but also to protect himself!

Datang is still the same Li Tang, and the sea, the future belongs to Li Mu! The Wanshi ships are the beginning, there is one, there will be a second, there will be a second, there will be a fleet, two fleets, and in this period, if there is a fleet of Wanshi ships, at least at sea, there will be no opponents. Even after a thousand years, when Portugal and Spain were vying for supremacy at sea, their main warships did not reach the level of ten thousand stone ships!

What Li Mu wants to do is to put on a straw hat and create his own era of exploration!

The earth, the land occupies 30%, and the ocean occupies 70%. The vast ocean contains treasures far beyond human imagination.

World history is a history of land struggles. This is true of all nations, and the oceans are limited to human capacity and, for a long time, have not received sufficient attention. But when the land is divided up by humans, the vast ocean will become their new target. Claims of maritime domination are still confined to the limited seas along the coast, and no country has ever thought of it, or it is impossible for them to do so, to occupy the seas. What Li Mu wants to do is occupy in the actual sense. He wants to be the king of the sea, and at least in his lifetime, the surrounding waters near Datang will be worshiped by him.

The issue of the oceans, boiled down, can be summed up in three points. "To whom the ocean belongs", "who will distribute the ocean" and "how to divide the ocean". When Li Mu was watching One Piece, he deliberately looked for knowledge about navigation, and he also deliberately found a documentary to watch the rise and fall of the two maritime empires of Portugal and Spain.

Portugal and Spain occupied the seas on the basis of "Roman law", first served, the papal precepts as the religious basis, psychological construction, and the return of exploration as an inducement, and carved up the global seas. The "maritime possession theory" held by Portugal and Spain is a self-justification of the logic of "preconceived and possessed by the strong", and in essence it is the hegemonic idea of "might is right", which is not very reasonable, but it is very useful. This is illustrated by the fact that Portugal and Spain became the hegemons of the seas. If the wheels of history have proved that this approach works, and hundreds of years later, Portugal and Spain did just that, why not now?

This is like a knife, there is no reason for foreigners to hold a knife is justified, Datang holding a knife is domineering and bullying, even if it is, then it will be done, Li Mu himself does not have any psychological burden, he has traveled from a thousand years later, studied more than a thousand years of history, world history, Chinese history, and even he crossed the world that was already a new era after two thousand years of AD, and there is no one who does not reflect the power is the truth, backwardness will be beaten, if you can choose, why not be the person of power? And to be the weak, to argue with the powerful, to demand fairness?

But you can't eat a fat person in one bite, things have to be done step by step. Li Mu looked at the 'world map' hanging on the wall, his gaze retracted from a distant place, and finally, his gaze locked on a large island in the lower right of the Tang Dynasty's territory, and he wanted to turn it into the home port of his fleet sailing to the sea of stars. He wants to build a huge lighthouse and lead the way for future generations to become a maritime power!

……

Three hours later, everyone finished their deliberations and returned to the Yuelai Inn. Compared with Fang Cai's panic, everyone seemed much more confident and logical this time.

Gu Sizhi took the lead in speaking and said that the ancestors of the Gu family operated Suzhou and Hangzhou, and were willing to stay to assist in the operation of Yangzhou Port, and at the same time hoped to participate in the construction of Mingzhou Port. The Zhu family said that they were willing to give up the rest of the industry, concentrate all their spirit on shipbuilding, and at the same time were willing to train sailors to prepare for going to sea.

But not everyone thinks so, for example, Langya Wang's interest in going to sea is not very great. They are willing to give up all shipping business in exchange for running a cement factory or an iron ore mine. Those who have the same idea as the Langya Wang family, as well as the Yu family, are very determined.

After listening to everyone's attitude, the 12th family of Jiangnan can be roughly divided into two parts. The two sides split half of the two sides of the faction of abandoning the sea and protecting the mainland, and it was obvious that they had discussed it privately and did a good job in exchanging interests. Each one took out a list, which had a list of their respective replacement industries, Li Mu casually picked up a family and looked at it, which involved the replacement part, each took out one percent, without indicating the belonging, but looking at the ambiguous smiles of these people, Li Mu knew the meaning of this one.

All the replacements were taken out of one percent to give to Li Mu as a cross-river dragon, which is not a big deal. But Li Mu didn't want to accept it, and if he did, it would be difficult to do things in the future, and what he wanted was not here. The so-called wealth is scattered and people gather, and wealth gathers and people disperse, it is when people are needed to do things, why should you be greedy for a little money and delay the progress of big things?

Li Mu asked someone to take the pen, and with a big stroke of the pen, he wiped all the chengcheng. Everyone was surprised, Gu Sizhi was about to say something, but Li Mu stopped the conversation.

"Ben Hou is here to do things, not to blackmail, if any of you have the intention of bribery, get out of Lao Tzu as soon as possible."

Everyone was overjoyed in their hearts, and hurriedly sent it again, Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Since you have made a division yourself, you will all sign and draw a pledge today, and no one will regret it in the future." All settlements were completed within two months, and in the process, Ben Hou did not want to hear any questions about this. If there is a problem, let Ben Hou know, no matter whose responsibility it is, all the industries involved will be fined and confiscated, do you have any questions? ”
