Chapter 182: Cheating Daddy
Ma Chao in history is such a pit daddy.
Originally, the relationship between Ma Teng and Cao Cao in the center was not bad, Ma Teng himself was very self-aware, it was impossible to establish himself as a king, with his little strength, how could he be the opponent of a million Cao Army?
Safely to Xu Du as a hostage, but also know more people, the wealth of the Ma family can also be guaranteed, of course, as a mountain, the strength of the Ma family must be weakened and mixed with sand, but the imperial court wants to do things in the northwest, how can there be less of the Ma family, which is very prestigious among the Qiang people?
But Ma Teng didn't understand his son, he was a real white-eyed wolf, a careerist, his father was originally waiting for death in Xudu, so he pulled the flag and rebelled, and Cao Cao, who heard about it, was ignorant, and at first thought it was fake news, what did Ma Chao want to do, don't kiss his father.
In the eyes of Ma Chao, a person who is cold by nature and only recognizes power, what is his father and can he eat it.
There are a lot of pit dads in this world, but they are also pit dads, and then the cause of death of Zheng Zhilong was very funny and angry, Zheng Zhilong was in Nanming, he belonged to the empty slogan, and even the money refused to come out to support the light pole, and when the Eight Banners arrived, it was even faster and better to take direct refuge in the province, and was also ensnared by the Manchurians, and was directly arrested in Beijing, and then directly sent to the snow field in Liaodong, and forced to write a letter to Zheng Chenggong with a knife to ask him to surrender.
is also watching his father die in the hands of the enemy, Ma Chao's belongs to absolute black history, even if it is supported by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after really understanding his behavior, there is nothing that he does not spurn, and Zheng Chenggong still insists on resisting the Qing Dynasty in the face of the tragedy of his father being abused and killed, but there is no one who does not give a thumbs up.
There is still a difference between the pit goods and the pit goods.
However, Ruan Fulan's death was also interpreted by the people from the imperial capital as his son, which made Zheng Zhilong also a little mental.
As a sea hero, Zheng Zhilong naturally has contact with Ruan Fulan, no matter how to say it, they are all the same profit-hungry careerists, although the things they covet are different, but the two sides still have the ambition to absorb some of the technology of the European red-haired people, Zheng Zhilong does all kinds of business, arms business, arms brokers have actually done it.
A living trading partner is suddenly gone.
"Ruan Phuc is so bold?"
"You also know, now that Vietnam is in turmoil, the news we received is second-hand, and there is not much that can be confirmed, Nguyen Phuc Phuoc quickly stabilized the morale of the army, which is true, of course, the capital city on the Hue side does not seem to accept it, but ninety percent of the army is in his hands, so even if he is dissatisfied, it is nothing."
Zheng Zhilong said slowly: "This is the so-called Romance of the Three Kingdoms. However, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in Vietnam seems to have too many shadows of elders behind it, which also caused the Vietnamese, who were originally just intermittent wars, to suddenly break out into a big war.
At least he knew how a few months ago, the old man who was called Chen Yonghua's father was found, and how he was sent to Vietnam as an envoy of the imperial capital.
Anyway, a few days after Chen Ding visited Ruan Fulan as an official of the Ministry of Rites, Ruan Fulan sent troops, how wrong is this.
Li Xiao suddenly said: "I heard that Brother Feilong has been to Japan, and what else has he learned about the double knife flow, I don't know what I have learned?" ”
Although Zheng Zhilong is over forty years old, he is still tall, and the attendants around him have samurai who hold swords for him, and he is dressed in a bald head, which is similar to the appearance in the Dahe drama.
Zheng Zhilong said: "It's nothing more than the skill of fighting and killing, and it's unbearable." ”
Li Xiao said: "However, I think that Japanese civilization is indeed still somewhat attractive, such as the ukiyo-e I saw in the imperial capital before, which is very interesting." ”
Theoretically speaking, ukiyo-e is almost the same age as Zheng Zhilong, and it is a representative of the extravagant and erosive life after the beginning of the Tokugawa shogunate era in recent decades.
Overall, nothing special.
However, Zheng Zhilong was also very surprised, and said: "Mr. actually knows Japan very well? ”
At this time, Japan was actually still a feudal society, that is, under a general, all kinds of boring feudal lords, all kinds of samurai, as a country of samurai, it was naturally governed by samurai, although merchants have been rising recently, but they have never been able to compete with the samurai.
This also caused that Japan's real productivity is actually extremely low, except for the production technology of the samurai sword relying on the captivity of the samurai and out of new tricks, the other, well, in fact, in terms of foreign trade scissors, the profit of my Ming iron pot is more than that of the katana.
Hearing that someone was actually interested in Japanese culture, a samurai behind Zheng Zhilong changed his expression of joy a little.
My brother likes AKB48, it's all old wet, and it's Yamato's Nadeshiko!
Of course, it seems that one of the elders has muttered something about cultivation, but their elders have never thought about such a bad thing!
Li Xiao said: "I have seen a new picture, but the so-called cultural picture, we still have to take a closer look, in today's world, in fact, a lot of nationalism, it is not necessary to ......."
Zheng Zhilong nodded a little ignorantly.
"Ahem, don't talk about this, you see, isn't that the case in Vietnam, obviously a hundred years ago, it was still the land of the Ming Dynasty, but suddenly rebelled, but it could only acquiesce to its independence, the Zhu family father and son have been incompetent for generations, but it's not because my Han people can't recover the lost land."
Vietnam, oh no, is Quang Nam province, of course, Chinese land.
As an emperor, Zhu Di still has some vision, Guangxi is such a place, it is difficult to really play a role in covering the flank of Guangdong, so it is urgent to take the political envoy of Jiaozhi Chengxuan, if Zhu Di can live a few more years, or the successor emperor has some deeds, then Vietnam may not be able to secede.
However, as the edge of imperial rule, if Vietnam was in the north close to Mongolia, it would have been bald by the Ming army, which was still quite elite at that time.
However, the distance was too far, and after weighing the pros and cons, the Ming bureaucracy made the worst choice.
Now, in order to get it back, in fact, there is a legal need for an excuse.
No way, no excuses, just take a box of laundry detergent out and start fighting directly, that's the way barbarians do it.
When China interferes with foreign countries, it is often a full reason or window time, when the Korean War is fought, it is the genuine North Korean government that invites it to participate in the war, and when it fights the Vietnam War, the volunteers sent by it are also the real father army, as for the time when India continues to provoke, China will deploy troops but on the surface it can barely pretend to deal with it, and when something happens to the United States, it will hurry up.
At that time, Cuba, a neighbor of the United States, accepted missile aid from the Soviet Union, which naturally caused a missile crisis.
The Cuban Missile Crisis began to ferment on October 15, 1962, and the Soviets compromised and made concessions on October 28, 1962, but during this period, the Indian government regarded China's leniency as weak and deceitful, claiming that it would deal with China by force, and that China that did not send Tibet to India would be unfriendly to China, and that the self-defense counterattack on the Indian border began on October 20, 1962 and basically ended on November 21, 1962.
A perfect time difference.
While the Americans had scared the Soviets back, were safe, and confirmed that there would be no more problems, the Chinese had already swept away the Indian forces that could jump and fight, and the United States and the Soviet Union certainly thought about intervening, but did not seize the opportunity.
And now, Vietnam is full of excuses.
The uncles and nephews of North Vietnam killed each other, and it was miserable, and my Celestial Empire, as my father's country, naturally had to take care of it.
The son of Nanyue killed his father, and it was a great rebellion, and my Celestial Empire, as my father's country, can I not care.
Zheng Zhilong naturally didn't understand these things, but what he immediately thought of was different from any elder.
For the elders, the money spent, or a little business, is the most ridiculous existence, only the land and the people above are real, how much money is spent, it only takes a few financial magic games to earn it back.
Money is a bastard, and the more you spend it, the more you can earn.
But for Zheng Zhilong, once he takes Vietnam, the previous business channels seem to be expandable, at least those Vietnamese officials who take advantage of him to take advantage of him to take advantage of the card can no longer restrain him, but the bad side is that if it is unified, then there will be no barriers, and other businessmen can run over to do business smoothly.
Technically, it's hard to say what the gains and losses are.
However, Zheng Zhilong still knows what he should do.
"But what is the send, I am willing to serve in Fujian!"
Li Xiao stopped this person's loyalty activities, at least in the eyes of the Elders, this guy's loyalty was at the level of Lu Bu.
In the end, it is Zheng Zhilong, who is the object of this product's allegiance, no one has a spectrum, and the most reliable speculation is that the only thing loyal to this product is the evil and omnipotent money.
Besides, brother, I've told you, let you honestly disband your forces, corporatize them, introduce various open mechanisms, and stop engaging in warlordization.
To say that Zheng Zhilong has no eyesight to see that it is also here, he gave gifts to the elders of the imperial capital according to the rules of the past, but one thing that the elders broke the rules is that they have no interest in sexual bribery and money bribery in this era, so they can't say that they are at ease, and the more they can't be at ease, the more people they hire under them, thinking that more people can ensure peace.
This is the same as the situation after Deng Ai took Sichuan, Deng Ai, who was in high spirits, wanted to attack Eastern Wu down the river, at this time from the emperor's hands, suddenly came a holy decree, and the example of Deng Ai was Bai Qi, Han Xin, Wu Han and Yafu, which is a proposition.
However, Li Xiao had no obligation to remind this person, and said: "In this regard, if we need to mobilize materials from Fujian, we will talk to the Fujian government, well, the next thing to talk about is shipping, you know, Vietnam's development level is insufficient, what is needed is a lot of investment, this, it needs to have people from Liangguang to go over, fortunately, there are a lot of people at this time, I think, as long as they provide rations for the initial reclamation of the fields, then there is no need to do anything in the later stage." ”
"Transporting grain?"
Fujian has many mountains and few lands, and it has always been a place to run outside, so it is natural to have an understanding of the reclamation of wasteland.
But here a situation arises, different from that of Europe.
The Black Death, which killed half of the population in Europe, was reduced by 80% in some areas.
As a result, capital and land remain the same, but the supply of labor is greatly reduced. Workers' wages have skyrocketed, interest on loans has fallen, and people's living standards have greatly improved.
This increase in living standards, while recovering as the population grows again, has had far-reaching implications. The cost of hiring workers was too high, so the capitalists were more eager for new technologies to save labor, and the cost of hiring tenant farmers was too high, so they tried to raise sheep instead of farming, which stimulated the development of the textile industry. As a result, starting with the textile machine, the curtain of the industrial revolution slowly opened, machines began to replace labor, and a large amount of capital entered the scientific and technological industry, and the ensuing technological progress helped mankind get out of the Malthusian trap for the first time.
In the East, on the other hand, the budding mechanization that emerged in the Song Dynasty was shattered by the cheap labor provided by the population explosion of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the general trend of labor surplus in all directions continued until 2018.
To what extent is this labor surplus?
The Confucian scholars kept saying that the reason why they sat in the sedan chair was not to covet the dirty mind of using other humans as power animals, but to find jobs for them, and one sedan chair would reduce four laid-off workers.
The old imperial capital was entrenched in more than 10,000 "men" who could not enter the palace after being castrated, and these people formed gangs to commit crimes in the imperial capital, but in the final analysis, they were still too poor and had too many people.
In later generations, a big man cried bitterly and said that we have the smartest brains, and these brains should be studying how to send humans to other planets, or artificial intelligence, controlled nuclear fusion, but pondering where to put ads to have better click-through rates, or how to sell more Coca-Cola, and how to slaughter ignorant fat sheep in the stock market.
For the elders, this is the dilemma they face.
China's ancestors did too well, on the land, the surrounding can lay down all the territory, surrounded by poor ghosts, who love to rob to rob, so it left an illusion for future generations, overseas are poor places, just our Gadda has food and water, beautiful mountains and rivers, so, don't go out casually, even if you go, you have to take away a piece of soil from your hometown, in order to show that you have not left your homeland.
Therefore, those who are going to Nanyang now are really mixed up to the point that they can't eat anymore, so they really go.
The elders' task is also very simple, hurry up and help these people find work to do.
The first thing is to solve the problem of land and legs.
At this point, the American continent is naturally the first target, but the place is too far away, therefore, at present, Liaodong is a choice, Australia is also a choice, but in terms of cost performance, Guangdong fills Vietnam, oh, Guangdong fills Guangnan Province, but it is a good choice.
