"Today, there are not only military ships purchased in the past years, but also new ironclad, fast touch, mosquito and other ships, and self-built patrol clippers, it is advisable to use iron armor as a town, there are forts to be attached, there are Haikou to grasp the key rush, there are mosquito ships to rescue, the patrol ships of the sea, it is planned to be divided into two major branches of the South and North Oceans, and if nothing happens, it will patrol the East Ocean, the South Seas, the Indian Ocean and the Americas, Africa, Australia, and the islands and ports of Europe. From near to far, he gradually traveled to practice driving, learn waterways, Zhang Guowei, and protect Chinese businessmen. If there is a police, the north and the south will support each other, and if the enemy peeps all the way, the defenders will be rejected, and the patrolmen will be attacked; When the enemy peeps into all directions, he avoids the real and attacks the false, and waits for the gap to be carved and suppressed. or three ways out at the same time, so that the enemy is tired of responding; Or they will come out of this ambush, so that the enemy will have no gap. As far as the offensive and defensive opportunities of all roads are appropriate, they must exchange information through the mainland wires, so that they can communicate with each other. In this way, the enemy still dares to commit a light offense, and it is rare. If there are not enough ships at present, it is advisable to purchase as many as possible so that the army can be formed. Imitate several clippers, touch boats, and mosquito boats, in order to prepare for the battle and respond to emergencies. The commentator said: In such an arrangement, it is impossible to achieve success without spending millions of dollars, and the current funds are not filled, where can the expenses come out? I don't know the general trend of the world, and we must plan the overall situation. Those who dare to peep at me will not be able to do so with my strength. Looking at the past when there were incidents in Haijiang, the cost of a battle was often 10 to 20 million gold, and the losses of the people were especially many, and the national prestige was destroyed a lot, so what good was it? Today, when there is nothing to do, we will raise money to consolidate ourselves, so that the enemy will not dare to be angry, and the national economy and the people's livelihood will benefit from it. Shift the use of things when there is nothing to do, take precautions, and protect the invisible ......"

"Yuyun: 'If you can be rich and then you can be strong, if you can be strong and then you can be rich', you can know that you can't be strong if you're not rich, you can't keep rich if you're not strong, and you can maintain the reality of being rich and strong. Or say: Now the government treasury is not filled, the tax is limited, the public expenditure is scarce, the people are difficult to borrow, and the clever woman would rather cook without rice? Why not? The rise and fall of the commercial market, the gain of goods, and the far-reaching sales of the market, it is necessary to rely on the wisdom and wisdom of the people to think deeply, and then to win the trick, with confidence. Business is getting more and more complicated today, and business is getting more and more ingenious today. The Taixi countries, every time the country is not enough, they will borrow money from the money merchants, in order to help the water and fire, and repay the principal and interest after the event, so that the time can turn the crisis into safety, this is the law of 'borrowing rice for cooking', which can be used in other countries, why don't I use it? ……”

Hearing these words, which can also be called "deafening" in later generations, Lin Yiqing couldn't help but be in awe.

And the content of Hayashi Yizhe's recital, which is now from the mouth of a Japanese geisha, shocked him even more.

"Shizhi, do you know which part of Lin Wenxiang's excerpt is the best?" Ito's question pulled Lin Yiqing's thoughts back.

"It's the 'table leg' theory." Ruyue Shixiang remembered something funny, covered her mouth and smiled, and replied.

"Why is Shiori laughing?" Hirofumi Ito seemed to have guessed what Shiori Kisaragi had remembered, and asked with a smile.

"That's the 'table leg' theory......" Ruyue Shiori said with a smile, "'The prince eats, Shangshuzui gnaws mud, and the waiter plants onions', the children of Qianguo all sing as a joke, do you remember Mr. Chunmu?" ”

Listening to Shiori Kisaragi's answer, Hirobumi Ito burst out laughing.

Lin Yiqing heard the proverb "The prince eats, Shangshuzui gnaws mud, and the waiter plants green onions", he felt strange in his heart, he knew that there should be a story in this, so he didn't ask too much, but listened quietly.

"Lin Wenxiang's excerpt, the most powerful thing is that the four people of 'Shinong Industry and Commerce' are known as the table legs of the country, all of which are indispensable, which is really a wonderful text!" Ito Hirobumi said, "The corrupt Confucian scholars of the Qianguo country cannot be refuted, and the first and second princes and ministers actually went to test whether the chairs with different legs of different lengths could sit firmly in order to oppose Lin Wenxiang's equal status to the merchants and the people, which is really foolish!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Yiqing understood, and couldn't help laughing.

Lin Yizhe actually has a lot of ways to deal with these diehards, but the effect is to humiliate them, but it does not fundamentally solve the problem.

"The last time he wrote the "Western Kingdom Holy Dao Examination", he really embarrassed this group of people, these people did not agree with foreigners as people, and foreigners who obeyed the holy way could not be ridiculed. It was the Qianguo that set up foreign affairs, and there was no major obstacle from then on. Hirofumi Ito sighed, "At that time, I thought that it was the ultimate to write such an article, but I didn't expect him to go to the next level and break the shackles of this 'Shinong Industry and Commerce'!" He's a real genius! It's a pity that I was born in Qianguo, not Japan! ”

"Shinong industry and commerce, arranged in an orderly manner, regard business as a cheap industry, and if you want to prosper business and benefit the people, you must get rid of such outdated views!" Lin Yiqing also sighed, "And how difficult it is to break the prejudice!" Who knew that Lin Wenxiang could do it! Looking back today, it still feels incredible. ”

The reason why Lin Yiqing said this is because he is familiar with modern history and knows that this stereotype of "Shinong industry and commerce, business is the last" is really embarrassing for that generation of Chinese people with lofty ideals for too long and too long!

In fact, the early civilizations of the East and the West were heavy on agriculture over commerce, and the aversion to commerce was a common early tradition. The same was true in the early West: "The contempt for commercial phenomena - the aversion to the market order - did not all arise from epistemology, methodology, rationality, and scientific problems. There is also a more obscure antipathy. …… The hatred of businessmen, especially of historians, is as old as recorded history. ”

Attached: "Weng Shuping's Diary":

"On the 29th day of the first month of the first year of Guangxu, the Prime Minister of the National Affairs Yamen played Lin Yizhe Chen, which folded the building of the navy, the protection of Chinese merchants, the opening of mines, the construction of railways, and the telegraph, and in the raising of salaries, it was proposed to develop commerce to open up the source of wages, and negotiated to borrow foreign money. As soon as his argument came out, the hearers were in an uproar. With its many quotations of Confucius Sheng's words, the Queen Mother seemed to be moved, handed over to the courtiers' meeting, Jingdi, Chundi, and Wenxiang pointed to their words as yes, Shen Xiang, Bao Xiang, Li Lansun Shangshu was silent, Lidi, Shan Shangshu (Shan Maoqian, the Ministry of Shangshu), Xu Yuru Shilang (Xu Tong) said that his arguments were wrong, and Yu also wanted to argue about it, but carefully examined the whole text, everywhere for the holy words, it seemed difficult to refute. …… After a long time of discussion, the queen mother ordered the inner supervisor to take the chair, and divided the legs of each chair with a saw, of different lengths, and placed it on the temple, saying: "If there is a person who can sit but not servant, it can be forbidden Lin Yizhe's discussion." 'The ceremonial hall was the first to sit down, and fell to the ground in front of him, his face broken and bleeding; Following the single mountain also stepped forward to sit, stumbling in front of the steps, the lip was cracked, and a tooth was lost; Xu Yuru stepped forward to sit down, and also served in front of him, planted upside down on the ground, and his head was broken. Since there was no one to sit forward, Lin agreed. I will see the edict in the near future, and I am depressed and angry in my heart, and I am sick at night. ”
