"There are twenty acres of paddy fields and ten acres of pepper orchards, how can they get two or three hundred taels of silver. Coupled with the subsidies and salaries of the Nanyang Public Insurance Division, even if you hire a few more helpers, not to mention three mothers-in-law, five of them can be raised! ”

The sentry chief's voice sounded, and behind him there were also two young women, who came to Hoi An this time, in addition to escorting Dong Anlu, they also "formed a group" to solve the daughter-in-law problem.

Most of the guards hired by the Nanyang Park Division were soldiers of the inland green battalion who had been captured in previous battles since the founding of the Anglo-Chinese People's Republic of China. These people were dragged to the South Seas to open up wasteland, and they were given coolie contracts ranging from one year to three years. After the expiration of the period, most of them settled in the local area because the fields had been opened, the houses had been built, and the local climate had been adapted.

Most of these people are Ding Zhuang, who is strong in blood, and finding a daughter-in-law has become a big problem, but fortunately, Annan is in the north, and if you marry an Annan woman, there is not much obstacle to aesthetics and culture, and the cost is quite small. The women of Annam had a supple temperament and were able to run a family, and even the people of the Nanyang Public Park Division and the officers and men of the Yingyang Army, the Fubo Army, and the Nanyang Fleet were also involved, setting off a considerable upsurge of "forming a group to buy wives".

Li Shun's face turned even redder: "What I'm talking about...... Sentry, you should understand......"

The matchmaker said: "The military master is so strong, the three of them can't settle down, and the ghost believes it!" ”

Although the three young women of Annan did not speak much Chinese, they could listen to it, and when they heard the taste of this, the tip of their chin poked into their chests, and their faces also flew red.

I was numbed by this softness. Li Shun shuddered and took out the silver, and the sentry chief also threw out an ingot, five or six taels, and paid the matchmaker's commission in a big way.

Just as the matchmaker took the silver with a smile and was about to cook the deed, several people suddenly bumped out from the depths of the courtyard, brandishing knives, and shouted a word that Li Shun and the sentry chief were all too familiar with: "Robbery!" ”

Li Shun and the sentinel's reaction could not be more skillful, pulling out a short gun, unkemptly opening the gun without blinking, pressing and pulling out the bayonet again, and stabbing at the vicious wolf of the two robbers who were still talking.

"I ...... We are one country! ”

"I'm also from Hanqi!"

The two robbers came to their senses and screamed miserably, but Li Shun and the sentry commander's men did not stop at all, and the bayonet stabbed into the chests of the two of them.

In the Nanyang Gongyuan Division, a captain of the Fubo Army finished his report and saluted and retired, Hu Hanshan looked at An Lu, frowned and asked: "Just now, your guards killed the wounded and killed the prisoners, and many of them were Chinese!" ”

Although the tone of this questioning was not severe, the Dao Yi condemnation behind it was extremely heavy, and everyone else was also shocked, and looked at An Lu at the same time.

"Even if Wu Tufu is ruthless, he should be against the natives, and your public division is too unrestrained against the officers left behind by the Yingyang Army."

Xiao Xie tactfully accused, in his opinion, Wu Ya was addicted to killing people in Nanyang, and his subordinates became bloodthirsty butchers, which led to the destruction of Nanyang guards.

"Even if you don't mention the laziness of your fellow compatriots, there are tens of millions of Chinese in Nanyang. Being bullied and oppressed by the Europeans is the great help of our Yinghua to control the South Seas. Nanyang crisis, they can still help, why can't they kill at will like this! ”

The more Han Shan talked, the more angry he became, he felt that this matter was not the fault of Wu Ya and Ying Yangjun, but the fault of the businessmen of the Nanyang Public Circle Division.

When the number of the two was enough, An Lu and Chen Xinghua glanced at each other and sighed helplessly, saying that these two really didn't understand the Nanyang pattern.

An Lu said: "Although there are not tens of millions of Chinese in Nanyang, there are enough millions. And the situation is not what you think, it is simply being bullied and oppressed by Europeans. An dared to say that the wealth of Nanyang, the Chinese did not get seventy percent, but also fifty percent. ”

Xiao Yan and Hu Hanshan were stunned for a moment, and then they remembered that Hoi An, where they were, was actually controlled by Chinese businessmen. But the whole thing, the Chinese hold at least half of the wealth, and they can't believe it.

An Lu explained: "Do you not understand business, so you think that Europeans who drive big ships have the most wealth in their hands? Wrong, they're in the palm of your hand. It's just the most superficial layer.

As far as Hoi An is concerned, foreigners can only ship foreign goods to Hoi An, who does he rely on to eat these goods? Who will sell these goods to the end buyer? Most of them are Chinese businessmen. Who do foreigners rely on to buy goods again? On their own? Of course it can't be, most of them are also Chinese businessmen. ”

"Is there a ship when the cargo comes? Of course not, and sometimes, the ships of the foreigners have to wait for a year and a half to get the goods they want. In Hoi An, more than 100 years ago, they were Japanese, and now they are all Chinese businessmen. "Let's just talk about pepper, now it is the Chinese businessmen who order money for the pepper plantation owners to pre-order their goods. When the foreigners came, the bulk goods were delivered together, so the local pepper business was actually monopolized by Chinese businessmen. This is true in Hoi An, but also in places like Luzon, Borneo, Bataxiongya and Malacca. Most of the foreigners relied on the money, contacts and toil of Chinese merchants to gather goods from various origins. ”

"Of course, not to mention, the Chinese themselves are also producing goods, there are tens of thousands of Chinese in Batavia, and even more Chinese in Borneo, growing rice, spices, mining, opening workshops, everything."

Chen Xinghua added: "Therefore, the Chinese hold at least half of the wealth of Nanyang, but unfortunately, the bulk of goods on the surface are woven by foreigners. Therefore, although there are few foreigners and there is not much effort, they make a lot of money, and they can also set big rules. ”

After being educated, Hu Hanshan felt that he was not on topic, what does this have to do with wantonly killing Chinese compatriots?

An Lu said: "Don't talk about Hoi An, in the entire Quang Nam, many Chinese have a blood feud with our Nanyang Public Circle Division. Let's just say that we have opened up the wasteland in the golden selenium before, and the Khmer has organized several large armies to encircle and suppress it, who instigated it? Who gives them the details? Who leads the way? Those are all Chinese in the area of Haxian and Meiyun. ”

"The guards of the Nanyang Public Parks Division, especially the officers from the Eagle Yang Army, hate the Chinese wanderers hired by the Chinese merchants in Hoi An the most! Those guys are the most powerful, peach tendons, poke eyeballs, castrate, break pipa bones, how ruthless they come. ”

"Why do they hate Nanyang Public Parks so much? Cut off their financial means! But we didn't want to break it, so we went to the door to talk about cooperation, hoping to pull them in to do it together, but most people didn't want to! This is just like those rural rich people in China, who join hands with him to do big business, he is never willing to nod, and wants to guard his own one-third of an acre. Whoever moves the land, he will dig up the grave of his ancestors. ”

The more An Lu spoke, the more excited he became, and he could be regarded as finding an outlet for the long-standing anger of the Chinese businessmen in Nanyang.

"Besides, this Hoi An, when our Nanyang Public Park Division first came, we originally had the intention of uniting the Chinese businessmen in the whole area and making a fortune together, but in the end, only the Xinghua family nodded. As a result, the Xinghua family had to move back to Guangdong because of this, and it was difficult to gain a foothold in the local area. ”

Chen Xinghua smiled bitterly, their Chen family and Nanyang Public Park Division came together, and they were squeezed out by other local Chinese businessmen, so that they abandoned their ancestral business, and the price was not small. But he immediately smiled again, Yinghua is now eyeing Quang Nam, Hoi An, those stubborn Chinese businessmen, there will be no more good days. Today, a large gang of bandits surrounded and attacked the merchant house, which was in response to An Lu's words when he first saw them: "The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry."

Hu Hanshan took a breath of cool air, and the Chinese in Nanyang were not helpers, but still enemies?

Xiao Xie is very confident: "That's because my Yinghua Tianwei has not spread to the entire South Seas!" When I Yinghua laid the foundation of Zhengshuo, these Chinese will naturally regard us as the kingdom of heaven, so they will obey it! ”

Chen Xinghua smiled: "Heaven is facing the upper country? The group of people who fled Nanyang when Ming died should still have this heart, such as the Chen family and the Chen family. But it's not all, like the Hexian Mo family, even if they know that my Yinghua is rising and the Manchu Qing is declining, they are secretly disadvantageous to Jin. ”

"At this time, there are millions of Chinese in Nanyang, but most of them came from the sea in the Ming Dynasty, how can the changes of the heavenly kingdom be considered by him?"

Hu Hanshan said dissatisfiedly: "An Huidong, aren't you businessmen?" Convince them to understand that only by getting together can they become rich and prosperous, there is no tongue at all? Everyone is the same brother, how can it be the same as a feud? An Lu sighed: "If you want to get long-term benefits, you have to give up the immediate benefits, who can be as far-sighted as the Xingxing family?" ”

Chen Xinghua said again: "It's not enough to have a vision, you have to have a mind, the Nanyang Chinese are gathered by clan blood relatives, and they want to break through this threshold to get together, unless they are ......regulated like the official family in China."

Hu Hanshan was excited, and smashed his fist on the map of Nanyang: "Why did the fourth brother nail in Nanyang early, I think he has this heart!" On a different day, this South China Sea should be my Yinghua Inner Lake! The Dutch, the Portuguese, the Spaniards, the French, all fuck off! ”

Everyone smiled relatively bitterly, the protégé of the Son of Heaven, his ambitions are really lofty, what is the inner lake, let's get over the hurdle in front of me first.

Facing everyone's disapproving gaze, Hu Hanshan hummed:

"Boss Xiao's wrist, I believe it, no matter which country or foreigner, you have to let it come and go! This crisis in the South Seas is an opportunity for our Yinghua to shock the South Seas and spread the prestige of the heavens to every corner! In the east horse farm of Huangpu Boundless Palace, Li Xian and Xiao Sheng rode their horses side by side, taking the opportunity of walking horses to continue to discuss the situation in Nanyang.

"In this way, it is really difficult for Nanyang Chinese to expect to help ......"

After listening to Xiao Sheng's introduction, Li Xian had another feeling in his heart.

"Nanyang Chinese can share hardships and hardships, but it is difficult to share wealth and prosperity. Unless you are strongly pressed by the foreigners, there is no way out, otherwise it is difficult to twist into a rope! ”

"In the early years, I followed some brothers through Luzon, but as a result, Zhangzhou was dissatisfied with Quanzhou, Zhangpu County was dissatisfied with Yunxiao County, and within a county, each of them was dissatisfied with each other. Within the capital, each family is not convinced, and only one family can be trusted! As long as an outsider is involved, who is credible, he will be forced to be untrustworthy, and things will be broken! ”

Xiao Sheng talked about his black history, and he actually ran through the Luzon business, thinking that he was from Fujian and had a ship, this matter was naturally logical.

Xiao Sheng sighed: "In the thirty-first year of Wanli, the Spanish slaughtered tens of thousands of Chinese in Manila, although it was related to Zhang Wei's statement to Wanli that there was a silver mountain in Luzon, but the local Chinese could not hold a group is the main reason. It wasn't until the Spaniards wielded their swords and guns that they realized that they should twist into a rope and found Li Dan, the sea owl, but it was too late. At that time, the Chinese in Manila were ten times larger than the Spaniards, and they held the sea trade, but in the face of the Spaniards, they were like pigs and dogs slaughtered! After the Chongzhen years, the Spaniards started again, but the Chinese still have no memory! ”

Li Xi didn't speak, he thought of the Red River tragedy that happened in Batavia after two and ten years in his previous life.

The Chinese in Southeast Asia, as Xiao Sheng said, only when the slaughter knife is on the verge of death, and only when they are regarded by foreigners as a whole that must be killed quickly, can they realize that they are a whole, and they begin to have the idea of the people. The history continued to evolve, and at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the War of Resistance Against Japan, it was also oppressed by foreigners that he realized that he should be condensed into one and find a solution in the mother country.

In the final analysis, why the Chinese in Southeast Asia are such a plate of scattered sand is because they can only rely on the bloodline patriarchal group to weave together, and on top of this, there is also a layer of "public division", but it is still contaminated with a strong patriarchal atmosphere. Even the Lanfang Gongyuan and the country are also patriarchal groups with a layer of Gongyuan and body skin, and the leadership of the Lanfang Gongyuan Division in the later period was passed on, and it was even determined that the chief and deputy chief must be the corresponding ancestral people.

This is the reason why Chinese gangs in Southeast Asia are prevalent, because they do not have a more advanced way of organizing and weaving, and can only be bound to the bloodline patriarchal method, as well as the patriarchal basis of the black society association model.

It is precisely because they are based on the bloodline patriarchal organization that they are incompatible with the society woven by the capital group that Western Europeans are accustomed to, and many conflicts have arisen. In all the massacres and killings, the Europeans defended that it was the Chinese who formed gangs and broke the bad order. The original reason for the misery of the Red River is also related to the black society of the Batavian Chinese.

Li Xi does not look at this problem from the level of Taoism, the key is, why are Southeast Asian Chinese always in the status of weak?

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the population of the Chinese in Southeast Asia far exceeded that of Europeans, and their wealth actually surpassed that of Europeans. Why can the Europeans weave the indigenous people together and occupy the position of the strong, but the Chinese themselves can't weave them? The most formed Lanfang Corporation. After that, the Lanfang Communist Party and the country only lasted for a hundred years, and it continued to decline.

The reason is naturally that the foundation of the Chinese in Southeast Asia is only in the bloodline patriarchy, and it has not been able to go further. The organization of social associations is not as simple as the feelings of the people, and by extension, the advanced and backward civilizations are actually on this group of organizations.

Thinking farther, Li Xi thought of Huaxia itself, and the experience of the Chinese in Southeast Asia was not rooted in Huaxia itself? In the Ming Dynasty, the society would be organized and organized, and the foundation was still the bloodline patriarchy, and the capital body that could be born could not be included in the organization, not only did not make blood for the society, but became a poison tumor that sucked the foundation. As soon as many factors were pressed, the deformed social society organization collapsed, and only then did the Manchu Qing Dynasty enter the customs and steal the world.

How to break the shackles of the bloodline patriarchal law on the entire society is the most important thing in the state affairs that Li Shi is currently in charge of, and now it seems that it will be promoted not only in China, but also in Nanyang. And there is less resistance to Nanyang's push, after all, the Nanyang Chinese are Europeans, not Manchus who look like the same kind wearing a human skin mask.

Top-down political governance is one thing, and the path of capital is the other, Duan Hongshi's recent "Theory of Heavenly Duty", and even the Tianyuan Lord's Religion, which advocates public worship, are on the other hand.

Thinking clearly about this background, Li Xi's thinking suddenly became clear, this is a threshold, not only to resolve a threat, but also an opportunity for Yinghua to move towards a new country.

"I've decided......" Li Xian's eyes flashed with crystal, making Xiao Sheng's heartbeat suddenly speed up.

"Raise another five million, all of which will be used in the affairs of the South Seas!"

When these words came out, Xiao Sheng almost got off the horse, five million!?

"Originally, I had been waiting for an artifact to mature, so that I could use it to condense Yinghua into a new country. But now it seems that my thinking is still narrow, the utensils are superficial after all, and before the utensils, the weaving goes first. Turning Nanyang into an Yinghua Inner Lake first, after the utensils are ripe, I want to change, naturally ripe melons, rather than waiting for the things to mature, and then to open up the Nanyang ......"

With Li Xian's whispering to himself, the national policy of the development of the Anglo-Chinese country has finally taken shape, that is: first the south and then the north!
