Chapter 144: Xiao Tian's Abacus
Luzon, that is, the country of monkeys in later generations, had almost zero good feelings for this country before Xiaotian crossed over. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info to be precise, he is tired of this country. Obviously, the people in the country are poor and bloody, and they don't think about developing the economy, and the first impression of this country in the world is that they are special maids.
Basically, the better the climatic conditions of a country, the lazier the people of this country, the people with poor land and resources, they need to continue to struggle to live, generation after generation, the genes of this diligence and wisdom will be passed on to future generations, such as us, such as the little devils of the Japanese country, are like this, the huge population to the limited land to harvest, doomed we must be industrious, if you are not industrious, you will have no food.
The monkey country is different, where you can basically throw a few seeds into the ground, and in a few months you will be able to grow pleasant crops, and there are endless tropical fruits to improve the taste, which is a gift from God. Why, why are the people of our Ming Dynasty not idle all year round, spring ploughing and autumn harvest, picking mountain treasures in the mountains during the slack time, catching fish and shrimp in the river by the river, the women in the family keep sewing all year round, but they are still hungry from time to time, and the lazy cancer patients in the monkey country are lying down and degrading their limbs very quickly, but they can eat enough?
The gift of heaven should be given to those who are industrious, brave, and wise, and since they are not with us for the time being, let us go and take them back for ourselves. The grassland aliens in the north have such thoughts, and when they can't live a hard life, they come to Daming to rob them, so why can't Daming face the south and move on these monkeys?
Of course, the Ming Dynasty did not launch a war towards the south, first, because it was too far away, the whip was out of reach, and the supply line was too long, and secondly, because the Jiaozhi (Vietnam) area was densely forested, and the large army could not be used, and there were all kinds of miasma, nine out of ten people were not killed on the battlefield, and the Jiaozhi people were still very good at fighting.
But now with Xiaotian, everything is different, the thinking of the people in the imperial court is still in the stage of land war, but Xiaotian is not, Xiaotian knows very well that naval warfare is the future development direction. All coastal places can become Xiaotian's battlefields, and this battle can also remind the imperial court that times have changed.
Of course, Yan Song couldn't understand it, and said in surprise: "What are you doing beating people in Luzon?" Aren't they still our subjects? It's a big deal, you can't afford to be confused."
Xiao Tiandao: "Don't worry, I know in my heart, I have been planning this thing for more than half a year, and I have to send it when I am ready to fly, the cabinet supports me and I want to fight, and if the cabinet does not support me, I still have to fight."
Yan Song said: "Of course, this kind of national war must be approved by His Majesty, where can I be the master?" ”
Xiao Tiandao: "Of course, of course, this matter has to be reported to Your Majesty, isn't it time yet?" Besides, you are too exalted to them, how can this be considered a national war, even if they are also qualified to let us fight the Ming Dynasty? I'll be able to clean them up myself. If the cabinet supports, just give me a general or something, just support me for some internal service, of course I know that the court is in difficulty, and I can pay for it. If the cabinet doesn't support it, even if I am a wolf, who would have stipulated that the wolf can only rob the Ming Dynasty? ”
Yan Song said: "Every time you make a big move in the past few years, the court has not been able to help much, but it has repeatedly benefited, although it is to sacrifice yourself to serve the country, but the court can not always let you bear it alone, this matter is too big, we have to study and study, go back to the cabinet, give us these old men a good talk about your ideas, although you may not understand, but you have always done things safely, we didn't understand the previous few times, but every time the court has gained a lot, this time I believe it is the same, I will make a statement with you, I don't know what other people think, but the old man will fully support your actions."
Xiao Tian said: "Thank you, Elder Ge, don't worry, I Lotte never fights uncertain battles, and I will not let you down this time."
Yan Song said: "It's just that the war pays attention to the reputation of the teacher, after all, Luzon is nominally our subject country, if you want to fight with him, you must have a name."
Xiao Tiandao: "I have already thought about this, Luzon is now the same as our Ming Dynasty, and a group of robbers have also come in, similar in nature to the Japanese Bandits, but they are far worse than our Ming Dynasty, the Spaniards have occupied many places for them, and they have no ability to drive them away, as their suzerain, we naturally want to help them drive away the robbers, with this reason, they will not only not resist, but will welcome us."
Yan Song nodded and said: "Such a reason is naturally very good, but because of you in the past two years, although my life has been much better, at best, it can barely be maintained, and I really can't afford to spend a lot of money, I can understand what you mean, but what's the use of us wanting Luzon?" During the Chengzu period, we also occupied Cochin, but the huge expenses were far higher than the benefits, so we gave up."
Xiaotian said: "I know, although you can rest assured about this, I don't understand it to you now, but when did I make a loss-making transaction in Lotte?" You may not be able to trust me in the war, but whether you lose money or not, these two words have nothing to do with me at all.
Yan Song nodded, and didn't ask any more, if it was someone else, Yan Song would have to ask to the end, but this is Xiaotian, of course, he has to be treated differently. First, just like Xiao Tian said, the gap between the economic level of the two is too big, Xiao Tian is willing to say, and he may not be able to understand, and second, it is indeed because of Xiao Tian's name as the God of Wealth, there is no unconvinced people in the court, no matter what he does, even if he says that he will make money by selling fans in Liaodong next winter, I am afraid everyone will believe it.
The most important thing is that Xiaotian doesn't need the expenses of the court to fight, others spend money on wars, but Xiaotian has always made money when he fights, and everyone's family has his own manpower, and the biggest role of the court is nothing more than to give a name.
So, this meeting lasted until late at night, and the old Yan Song finally couldn't bear it before leaving, which was considered a joy for the guests and hosts, although Yan Song did not promise anything substantial, but also expressed his willingness to contribute, and had a basic attitude.
Before leaving, Yan Song spoke: "Zhao Wenhua may have been working with you for a long time, but you can still work hard, the beach in the south of the Yangtze River depends on the support of the two of you, you have to cooperate sincerely, there is nothing unpleasant."
Xiao Tiandao: "Naturally not, at least I have always been very pleasant with him here."
There is no need for a smart person to speak thoroughly, neither of the two of them said a word, but Yan Song showed what he meant, and Xiao Tian also gave his answer, Xiao Tian clearly said that he may not be able to keep Zhao Wenhua, but at least it will not harm him.
As for the rest, I can't say it. Xiaotian will not promise anything.
didn't wait for dinner, and the next person came to report, "Young master, Li Shangshu has sent someone again, are you hiding?" ”
Xiaotian said: "No need, since I have seen one, there is no reason not to see the other, let him wait, I will change my clothes and go with him." (To be continued.) )
