Liu Defu is an ambitious person, but in the Ming Dynasty, no matter how ambitious and rich a person is, he can't be promoted to the Jinshi in the examination, and he can't be an official or a eunuch. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Liu Defu has paid attention to Ren Siqi's actions since he dated Ren Siqi, and after learning about Ren Siqi's current situation from the mouth of Song Liben, who gave him dividends, Liu Defu was heartbroken.

From Song Liben's words, Liu Defu discovered Ren Siqi's ambition, Liu Defu suddenly realized that an opportunity was in front of him, and this was the time when Ren Siqi was in decline. Ren Siqi was able to develop from a mere boat to a large force, and now he is in control of an island, and now the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, and he knows whether he can be above the storm?

Thinking of this, Liu Defu hurriedly followed Song Liben back to Daishan to express his allegiance to Ren Siqi.

Liu Defu is a big businessman in Ningbo, and there are intricate relationships in the entire Ningbo Prefecture, and with his joining, the speed of development and growth of Daishan Island will be greatly accelerated.

In the inner room of the Gaoting Town Inspection Division, Ren Siqi and Liu Defu talked at night, Song Liben sat aside, and Amakusa Feng was sent to the door to watch the door, and no one else was allowed to enter.

After Li Chuang broke through Kaifeng, his power rose sharply, and then he broke Sun Chuanting and Sun Inspector, and now he has broken Tongguan and entered Guanzhong. As soon as Inspector Sun died, no one in the Ming Dynasty would be able to defeat Li Chuang, unless he transferred the Ning Iron Cavalry. Liu Defu analyzed the situation of Daming to Ren Siqi and Song Liben.

"The Guanning Iron Cavalry must guard against the Qing troops outside the Guan, and they cannot be mobilized." Song Liben shook his head and said.

"That's right, once the Shaanxi army is defeated, no one in the north and south of the entire Central Plains will be able to resist Li Chuang, and the Ming Dynasty will be in danger!" Liu Defu sighed.

"Isn't there still Zuo Liangyu? It has hundreds of thousands of troops and occupies Wuchang, how can Li Chuang be allowed to run rampant? Song Liben was puzzled.

Now the Ming army in the Central Plains is retreating one after another, and only Zuo Liangyu still has strong strength.

"Zuo Liangyu? If he dared to fight with Li Chuang, how would he watch Kaifeng fall into the hands of the invading army, how could he watch Inspector Sun be defeated by Li Chuang, cruel to the people like a wolf, and cowardly as a mouse when he saw the invading army, this is Zuo Liangyu! It's just that the Son of Heaven still attaches so much importance to this guy, and constantly adds officials to him. When it comes to Zuo Liangyu, Liu Defu is very disdainful.

"It's not that the Son of Heaven doesn't know Zuo Liangyu's temperament, it's just that he can't." Ren Siqi said.

"The situation in the Ming Dynasty is like a dangerous egg, and the world is in chaos! I wonder what adults think? Liu Defu sighed, his eyes looked at Ren Siqi. Although he decided to take refuge in Ren Siqi, he still wanted to see Ren Siqi's insights and see if it was worth his follow.

"Li Chuang, who had occupied the Central Plains and now advanced into Shaanxi, would soon cross the river to the east in an attempt to attack the Jingshi. In recent years, the imperial court has levied too heavy agricultural taxes, and the people everywhere have been complaining, and Li Chuang's slogan of not levying grain for three years is too demagogic. Ren Siqi told what was about to happen, although he did not have many memories of the history of the late Ming Dynasty in his later memories, he also knew that Li Zicheng easily took Beijing and Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself.

"My lord, are you saying that this Ming Dynasty doesn't have much time, and Li Chuang finally gets the world?" Liu Defu looked at Ren Siqi with bright eyes, shocked by his assertion, in the hearts of the officials and gentry in Jiangnan, Li Chuang was still regarded as a thief, and many people did not want to believe that the Ming Dynasty, which had been more than 200 years old, would be overthrown by Li Chuang.

"In the past ten years, there has been a great drought in the north for many years, thousands of miles of red land, and hundreds of people have taken risks, and it has shown the image of the end of the world, even if it is destroyed by Li Chuang, it is nothing, right? But do you want to say that Li Chuang won the world in the end? Not necessarily. Ren Siqi said solemnly, "Don't forget the Manchurians outside the Guan. ”

"It's just a barbarian, can you still take the Ming Dynasty?" Song Liben didn't believe it. Although these Manchurians made a lot of trouble, repeatedly defeated the Ming army and plundered Gyeonggi Shandong, but in the eyes of many Ming people, the Manchurians are still barbarians outside the Guan, and the number of hundreds of thousands is only a few hundred thousand. Don't you look at the Mongols who were powerful in the past, aren't they also obedient now, and don't dare to make trouble anymore?

"Don't underestimate the Manchurians, although they are small in number, but they are in the cold place outside the pass, the Manchurian iron cavalry is brave and good at fighting, the Ming army is not its opponent at all, and I am afraid that it is not possible to break into the army." Ren Siqi said, he knows the future history, of course he knows that it was hundreds of thousands of Manchus who finally seized the world of the Ming Dynasty.

Listening to Ren Siqi's words, Liu Defu was thoughtful.

"In the next few years, the situation in Daming will be turbulent and difficult to say. We Daishan is about to take this opportunity to develop strength, whether it is self-reliance in the future, or defection to the winner, we all need to be strong ourselves! In front of these two people, Ren Siqi no longer hides his ambitions.

"Our next step is to clear out the pirates in Zhoushan and control the entire Zhoushan Islands in our hands!" Ren Siqi stretched out his right hand and grabbed the void, showing strong self-confidence.

"But listen to your lordship!" Liu Defu and Song Liben straightened up and responded in unison.

"While clearing out pirates, the construction of Daishan Island should also be put on the agenda, and the next step is to open up wasteland and farm, recruit talents, and build Daishan Island into our base." Ren Siqi said.

"Is this Daishan Island too small?" Liu Defu raised the question, the entire Daishan Island is a hundred miles in circumference, and the potential is really limited.

"Daishan is small, but there is also Zhoushan Island, after clearing the pirates, the next step is to think of Zhoushan Island in our hands."

"Now that the Daishan Inspection Division has just been established, there is a shortage of all kinds of materials, I am going to open a commercial house on Daishan Island to sell all kinds of daily necessities, and you are responsible for this supply, Brother Liu." Ren Siqi instructed, "In addition, Brother Liu, you need to help me recruit some clerks to be shopkeepers, after all, I am a shortage of talents on Daishan Island, and there are very few people who know how to do business." ”

"It's all on me." Liu Defu patted his chest and said, "Is there anything else I need to do?" ”

"Brother Liu, your task is to provide me with various sources of goods in Ningbo and Hangzhou, after all, if we want Daishan to grow, we still need to rely on sea trade to support!"

In a few sentences, the responsibilities of both sides were clearly explained, and Liu Defu, as Daishan's representative on the mainland, was responsible for purchasing various materials for Daishan Island and seeking intelligence.

In fact, the two sides are still a cooperative relationship, but it is a deeper cooperation, through Liu Defu, Ren Siqi can obtain a variety of goods and materials. For Liu Defu, Daishan Island can make him a lot of money, and if Ren Siqi really wants to gain power in the future, he can also rise to the top! (To be continued.) )
