Yang Meng sat in the warehouse all night and didn't sleep, thinking about the Qing soldiers in Yunnan, the tenants of Yiliang, and the foreign powers who traded with guns, his heart was full of worry.

It's not that I'm worried about the country and the people, but I'm worried about the future of the Yang family, Yunyan makes money and can earn a lot of money, but it's useless to have money, force is disproportionate to the wealth he has, and it can only bring disaster.

Poor, but strong in force to rob; rich, but without force, they will be robbed; Half-poor but not rich, make a living by force, and most of those who see the poor robbing the rich will also join the ranks of looting.

The Qing Dynasty is the target of the plundering of the great powers, and the Yang family is the object of the plunder of the Qing Dynasty.

Yang Meng didn't sleep all night, which also made the old man a little worried, called the boss who had just woken up, and the father and son of the Yang family gathered in the warehouse.

"Third child, what's wrong with you? What's so good about these things? Can keep you awake all night? ”

The old man was worried and didn't speak, and the boss Yang Yong became the old man's mouthpiece.

"Yang family!"

Yang Meng's answer was simple, and Yang Shiqin also understood, the third child's business was too profitable, so he was afraid that if he left the news, the Yang family would become a fat sheep coveted by everyone.

"The Yang family? What's wrong with our family? Who else in Yunnan dares to blow up the thorns? ”

For the strength of the Yang family, the boss Yang Yong is very confident, with a family of millions of dollars and thousands of dollars, a little Yunnan businessman, which one has such strength?

"Short-sighted!"

The eldest brother Yang Yong is his own business route, Yang Meng spoke with a little bit of morality, the old man Yang Shiqin is different, the boss is a businessman who helps to go two, and he is a little unavoidable.

"Bastard! The Yang family is not the Yang family of the Qing Dynasty, and what are the chances of winning against my Yang family in the imperial court? You run the merchant gang only to make money and play with women? Where's the brain? Did you fall into a woman's crotch? ”

Yang Shiqin's words are a little mean, the boss of the Yang family has good skills, at the age of twenty-five, he can open up business routes by himself, and several times the merchants of the Qing Dynasty are already considered talents.

"Daddy! If we don't rebel, how can the court deal with us? Besides, didn't you say that I should have more children and raise more? It's become mine! ”

Boss Yang couldn't hold back the scolded face, and replied with a stalk around his neck.

"The mud can't support the wall, it's a shame that the Yang family didn't hand it over to you, and the Yang family can't live your generation if it is handed over to you, so you will lose!"

Seeing the boss's rebuttal, Yang Shiqin was even more annoyed, the merchant doesn't just look at whether you can do business, how many big businessmen and wealthy businessmen are in the Qing Dynasty several times, but how many can really pass it on to future generations? Merchants who have no scheming and no means are just the silver cellars of the imperial court! If the court doesn't take you, corrupt officials and corrupt officials will also take you.

"Big brother, do you think I still can't do this deal?"

The old man and the eldest brother are strong, and it is not good to watch the play by themselves, so Yang Meng can only come out to play a round.

"As long as you don't sell it to the people of the Qing Dynasty, what can you do? Foreigners are not the same to sell opium to our Qing Dynasty? ”

As a businessman, Yang Yong is a good businessman, and his means of doing business are good, and he can live well in the prosperous era of Qingping. But now in the Qing Dynasty, the court is corrupt, the ministers are greedy, the people are bitter, and the border defense is rotten, and the eldest brother Yang Yong lives in such an era, and he can only be a tragic figure after making a fortune.

"I can't do it! My cloud smoke is more powerful than opium, and few people can quit it when they get wet, and when the foreign devils come back to their senses, can they not trouble us? ”

Yang Meng couldn't talk like the old man, with the face of his eldest brother, so he could only knock on the side.

"Yunnan is located in the southwest, and foreigners have to cross the threshold of the Qing Dynasty when they find trouble with us."

When he said this, the old man Yang Shiqin stomped his feet when he heard this, and Yang Meng smiled helplessly, his eldest brother is really anxious!

"Forget what I said to you when you didn't agree to this cloud cigarette deal? Rebel! My steps have already taken a step, Yiliang already belongs to half of the Yang family, after a year and a half, Yiliang will not be surnamed Aixin Jueluo, he has to be surnamed Yang!

Great Qing? There are only a few broken boats of foreign devils, and he can't find the north with a thousand foreign guns, you count on the Qing Dynasty, it's better to hang yourself. Foreigners are the most greedy, they can do opium trading, and there is money they don't want to earn?

To be a businessman in the Qing Dynasty is not only to know the means of a businessman, but also to have the right force to match, so strong that others are afraid of you, so that you can be a big businessman and a wealthy businessman! Look at these things behind me.

Foreign cloth and foreign noodles will make the people live more miserable, foreign guns and foreign cannons will loot the Qing Dynasty, this Qing Dynasty is not far from the end, but our Yang family can't follow the Qing Dynasty to finish, we not only want to dominate Yunnan, but also be able to deter foreign devils, so that they can only endure the blood loss. ”

As soon as Yang Meng said that he had rebelled, Yang Yong also came back to his senses, and the hearts of the third and the old man were a little bigger. He has been doing business all year round, and he is most familiar with Sichuan and Guangzhou, although the Qing Dynasty can't do it, but the following is different!

Because of the world, bandits are rampant in various places, and the largest one is the Qing soldiers, in order to protect themselves, the landlords and wealthy businessmen in various places are all building their own regiments to practice, that is, they do not build regiments, and there are also wealthy slaves and villagers at home, and these people are also a lot of momentum when they get together.

It is not possible to fight foreign devils in the Qing Dynasty, but there is still a set of ways to deal with the rebellion in the Qing Dynasty, and the Yang family will not have anything to do! Once an incident starts, it won't last for a few days, and the whole family will have to be stabbed from top to bottom.

"Rebellion! Absolutely not, once we do it, we will become the target of the public, and the entire Qing Dynasty will rise up to attack, and there is no way for us to live! ”

As soon as Yang Yong's words came out, the old man with a tense face showed a hint of relief, this boss has not yet arrived at home, and it is not a hopeless thing.

"That's a good thing, let's say it's a rebellion, but it won't really cause an incident, and support the army to respect itself?"

If the boss didn't say what he just said, Yang Shiqin wouldn't have given him a thorough explanation.

"Big brother, that's what the old man said, let's not do things in the open, secretly control Yunnan, let the court be jealous of us and connive at us, but dare not deal with us. The situation in Yunnan is not good, after controlling Yiliang, our backyard will be stable, as for what to do in the future, we have to wait slowly.

The most important thing now is the armament, the things of the foreign devils, you handle them, the knives are all steel knives, and the power of a single musket is not very good, but once it forms a military formation, it is a sharp weapon for killing.

The Qing Dynasty's bird guns and guns were not of good quality, the accuracy of the head was not good, and the range was not far, and they only had the share of slaughtering foreign guns. That artillery, you and the old man have seen the battle of Humen in Guangzhou, but the Qing Dynasty is the opponent?

The cannon is good, the gun is strong, the knife is sharp, the foreign devil does have a set, what should we do?

Steal! Those who practice boxing know what it means to steal boxing, and we and foreign devils also have to come to this set. Learn other people's skills, use other people's machines, first learn to walk from foreign devils, and then find a way to run by yourself.

I looked at the things in the warehouse, we have a lot to learn, and the first step is to build an iron factory. We have to invite this skill, equipment, and craftsmen, foreign devils are here to do business, as long as there is a profit, there are always people who are willing to sell.

The iron factory is the key, machinery and equipment, swords and guns, are indispensable, the next time you go to Guangzhou, you have to specifically look for these things, as long as it is a technique, as long as there is a machine, no matter good or bad, no matter the value, you have to get it back.

The next trip, let's ship in large quantities, we don't want gold and silver treasures, as long as the foreign devil's fresh gadgets, it doesn't matter if you spend money, our business is almost capitalless, how much to give the foreign devils now, they will have to kneel outside the door to send us back in the future. ”

Yang Meng poured beans into the bamboo tube, and said everything he thought about last night, back to chaos, Qing soldiers, foreign devils, these look far away, but once there is something, it is a big event that burns the eyebrows, and when the time comes, it will be too late!

"Third child, you speak lightly, I don't know how difficult it is for the Dao Shang Gang to run. What you said is difficult to see in Guangzhou, and it is even more difficult to transport it to Yunnan!

Foreign guns and knives are all small objects, and it is not difficult to transport them to Yunnan if they are packed into boxes and spend some money, but the machines and foreigners you said think of Yunnan, and I have no way to do it, big brother.

The Qing Dynasty is now trading with five mouths, Guangzhou, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Ningbo, Shanghai, these five places, only the strength of the foreigners in Guangzhou is the strongest, and the strength of the imperial court is the weakest, which gives us the opportunity to secretly do business with foreigners.

Piecemeal and scrappy, you are a skill and a machine, and it will definitely attract the attention of outsiders, once it reaches the imperial court, we will be a capital crime of fornicating with foreigners.

Besides, small objects or something, we hide the past, and it's not easy to spend a lot of money on objects. The imperial court strictly forbade foreigners to enter the inland, and the foreigners were eye-catching, from Guangzhou to Yunnan, such a long journey, once there was a case, trouble would come.

It's true that foreigners are willing to do business, but our Qing Dynasty is unwilling! Beware everywhere, blockade everywhere, we have gone a long way, the intelligence of the sentry is familiar, this time the goods can come back smoothly, once the number of times, it is inevitable that there will be an omission.

Once the checkpoints everywhere and the horses of our family transport foreign goods, I am afraid that we will have to search for money, and the things you said will not be transported in at all! ”

Yang Yong also knows his own difficulties, the checkpoints everywhere, I can't wait to grab your pigtails to extort money, and now you take the initiative to send it, I'm afraid that you will lose both money and goods.

"Boss, isn't it okay to be on the front line of Annan?"

As the helmsman of the Yang family, Yang Shiqin naturally has a special sense of smell for business routes.

"No! At least not now, Annan is now the world of France, and we have opened that trade route, but I am afraid that those greedy things will follow behind. Now the front line of Annam, the road is difficult, outsiders do not know the route, and the goods transported are also very few, which has not attracted attention.

Our family's clouds and smoke are a profitable business, and foreign devils will be red-eyed in the future, without a certain strength, Annan's trade routes cannot be opened. ”

In the area around the Golden Triangle, Yang Meng knows best, the river is the best transportation channel, but the current strength of the Yang family is not good, and rushing up will only make people covet it, the old man's idea is good, but the timing is not right, he will directly give it no.

"The inland line is like a closed line, the risk is too great, you might as well try the Annan line, let's be careful."

Yang Yong is most familiar with the trade routes, what his third child wants, the danger of going inland is too great, he can't guarantee safety, once he misses the Yang family, it will be over.

"We have to find a way to be dangerous, now we can only go to the inland line, and if we attract the attention of foreign devils on the Annan side, we will die faster."

Yang Meng will never agree to this statement, in the face of the Qing Dynasty, you can solve a big problem by spending money, but in the face of foreign devils, you can only rely on strength, your strength is not good, you can only become the object of plunder.

"Boss! Do it! Also go inland line, bring more people, spend money if you can spend money, and if you can't pass, you will fight hard, the number of people at the checkpoint is limited, the action is faster, and you should be able to go once or twice. ”

Yang Shiqin thought about Yang Meng's statement for a while, and felt that it was good, the best way now is the inland line.

"No! Hitting hard is not a way, once the sentry card is moved, it will be a big trouble, and it will affect the whole body, alarming the two Guangxi Governments, and they can't run away. ”

The old man speaks simply and fights hard! But Yang Yong knows the difficulty inside, one or two checkpoints are not impossible, but once they are leaked, it will be a big trouble.
