Chapter 272: Under the World (Part II)
Chapter 272: Under the Whole World (Part II)
Definitely not, over the years, Shen Fu has dealt with the government, the rebels, and all kinds of so-called heroes and heroes, and he has long lost any hope for his greed for human nature.
There are no officials in the world who are not greedy, and there is no emperor with a small appetite, since they can casually make a decree, they can take other people's mountain wealth as their own, how can they not bear it, and even if they can bear it themselves, what about those people under their hands, their descendants and successors, who dares to guarantee that these people will not pay the bill with a knife, even if they are law-abiding people such as Zhu Chongjiu, in Shen Fu's view, the cooperation with the Shen family is only temporary, and when he can really turn carp into a dragon, many of the current practices may not be persistent.
Therefore, if you want to keep the wealth of the Shen family, and if you want to keep the descendants of the Shen family from being spied on by the government, there is only one way, the Shen family itself will be the government, turn the family into a country, and establish a country that belongs to the Shen family and all the merchants in the world.
What is the whole world is not the king's land, the guest of the land is not the king's minister, bullshit, Lao Tzu's family is on a big island overseas, surrounded by water, does not occupy an inch of your court, who can say that Lao Tzu must be a king's minister, this is Shen Fu lived for half a lifetime, only to see the final direction, as long as he can take Bomud Island and occupy it for ten or twenty years, in the end, no matter who becomes the emperor in the Central Plains, the Shen family can only be a vassal at most, not a slave, and then make money at that time, it will be completely his own, so as not to worry about the prying eyes of power.
For this reason, he Shen Fu is willing to pay any price, including his own head, this is the reason why he must come to Yangzhou in person this time, this is the motivation for him to just gain Zhu Chongjiu's favor, and he can't wait to put forward the request to buy artillery.
However, when he saw the aggrieved appearance of his own son Shen Mao, Shen Fu felt that he was poured a big scoop of cold water on his head, although his younger brother and several children are good at business, but after all, they have not experienced the difficult stage of the Shen family's career, and everything is too smooth, I don't know how many times the Shen family can go from a small shop to the present, how many times have they been forced to almost lose both people and money, how many times has the whole family almost fallen into the abyss, and I always feel that as long as I have money, I can manipulate it. But I don't know that if you have money but don't have the corresponding strength, there is no difference at all between a three-year-old child walking on the street with a gold brick.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh faintly, looked into the eyes of his own son Shen Mao, and said earnestly: "The troubled times have come, our Shen family, we have to find a place to avoid trouble, otherwise no matter how much money we make, in the end it will still belong to others, besides, the Bomud Island, it's not that there are no good things at all, and the millet is now a big ship to transport grain to the imperial court, and the big trees in Liangzhejiang are about to be cut down by him, and the woods on Bomud Island can't be seen at all, and the local natives are gentle, Give them a few saws to cut down the trees, and after they are dried, they will be transported back, which is another good deal, and the natives have a good livelihood, so they can get along with us better, and they don't have to fight and kill at every turn. ”
"Those black-skinned monkeys." Shen Mao thought about it, his face showed a little disdain, the natives on Boni Island seem to be best at climbing trees to pick fruits and go to the sea to catch fish, and they can't do anything else, and because food is readily available, a personality is too lazy to die, as long as he catches enough fish for one meal, he will never catch more for the next meal, even if the fish has gold hidden in his belly, it is difficult to drive them to move more, (Note 1)
"Don't look at them as lazy." Shen Fu smiled and continued to try to enlighten, "They are lazy because they have not seen anything else worth having except food, and on that island, there is never a shortage of food, if you can make them realize the benefits of wearing shoes and clothes, they will take a qiē thing to change shoes and clothes with you, if you can let them know the benefits of housing, they will exchange their wives and children with you for a house, you let them know that the fish with salt and seasonings is more fragrant than the fish boiled in white water, Next time, in order to change the seasoning of salt, they can work for you and use them well, which is a big help for my Shen family, far better than driving them away and spending money to recruit people from the Central Plains. ”
"Father's point, I'll try my best." Shen Mao thought about it, nodded very reluctantly, deep down, but felt that the older his father was, the less he did things neatly in his early years, and he actually wanted to teach the natives to wear shoes and dress, and exchange with them at an equal price, looking at the whole Nanyang, who would do such a thankless thing, whether it was Majapahit or Srivijaya, they could kill the natives, and they would never give any good face, even the big cannibals who had just gained a foothold on the shore were all taken and sold as slaves by boat, and they were regarded as the same kind,。
After all, the entire Shen family is carried by his father alone, and the inheritance of the position of the head of the family in the future will also be designated by his father, although his uncle Shen Gui is kind, and his younger brother Shen Wang is a friend, but after all, his ability is worse than his own, and the rudder of the Shen family in the future will only be safely handed over to his own hands, and everything will be worry-free.
"Fang Guzi has no ambitions, our Shen family can help him sell his stolen goods, and it is okay to be friends with him, but if you want to earn more from him, there is almost no possibility, Liu Futong is indeed brave and resourceful, but he is too narrow-minded, and he does not have the slightest tolerance, and the generals under his command are all unruly, and it is estimated that his father can lay down the Bianliang, which is already the limit, if the territory expands again, I am afraid that he will become elbows and armpits." Having the intention to broaden his son's horizons, Shen Fu continued to be kind and inducing, "As for the Zhu butcher, my father still can't understand him, and I don't know how far he can go in the future, so he personally sits here in order to adjust his strategy at any time, as for the Mongolian court, it is already a matter of time before it is over, so our Shen family must try our best to withdraw from the north, and would rather not earn that share of the money, and eat less."
Note 1: On the Nanyang Islands, there used to be a kind of dark-skinned short aborigines, but later due to the southward invasion of the Indian race and the eastward expansion of the Arabs, the local aborigines were slaughtered and sold, and soon disappeared into the long river of history.
