Chapter 147: Dream Ambition

The man with glasses and I looked at Jackson's distant back and stopped for a long time, and at that moment the world around me seemed to stand still, and the scenes of the past were quickly switched in my mind like a movie replay.

I looked at the man in glasses, who was also pensive, "What do you think now?" Still those big dreams from before? ”

The man in glasses didn't look at me, just looked ahead and said, "I don't think those are so-called grand dreams. ”

"Okay, how to define that is your business, but I think you should understand by now, there are more smart people in this world than you, not only me, not only shipwreck survivors, so there are more people with the so-called historical perspective advantage may be beyond your imagination, everyone has dreams, everyone has ambitions, but there are big and small, do you really want to continue to throw yourself into those endless disputes?"

"But you know Han Dong? If it weren't for my so-called dreams and ambitions, you might still be in prison right now? It was my so-called dream ambition that led to the leprosy incident that gave you a chance to get out of your cell. Sandro has arranged a spy on your side, and you find out, so what? Because he is the commander of the island guard, you can do nothing about him! What is it? This is the law of the jungle, you can only protect yourself when you become stronger, and you can only survive better if you have more resources. ”

But this kind of dream and ambition can be easily shattered, isn't it? Didn't your carefully planned leprosy affair be easily debunked by Sandro? I guess some of those Protestants betrayed you, right? Behind the ambition is the vigilance of all kinds of guns and arrows, is this really happier than being an ordinary person? ”

"You think you can dodge those guns and arrows by being an ordinary person? Isn't the Big Bear incident a living example? Many times it is the trees that want to be quiet and the wind does not stop! Han Dong, I still have the same attitude as before, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me, we can get rid of all previous suspicions, this world has half of me, and there will be half of you! Even if there is more than one smart person in this world, so what? Why can't we be the smartest of the wise? Instead of letting a bunch of fools rule the world, it is better to take your fate into your own hands. ”

No matter what the man in glasses said, it never provoked my desire to rule the world. Having more rights, having more resources is something that ordinary people can't enjoy, but so what? I can't experience the happiness of those people, but maybe they can't experience my happiness either, and the definition of happiness is different, and the perspective of everything will be different. Besides, the world is so big and there are so many things, if the unification is really completed, then it is estimated that you will really have to die every day, so just be yourself.

I didn't have the determination to change the mind of the man with glasses, I just felt that everyone was a survivor of Hainan, and I didn't want to watch him fall into madness.

I said to him, "Even if what you say is fine, what are you going to do with that great deed?" The people around you who can really be trusted now are those boys, and there are not many people who can really trust me here, we have a winery and a tobacco company in our hands, but after all, they are just two start-up industries, okay, even if they are all developed, so what? To accomplish that great cause, can the income of these two industries alone be supported? I'm afraid it's not enough. We have neither money nor people, let alone dominate the world, and we can't even deal with the escorts of this island! ”

"You're neither right nor right! We don't want to challenge the entire British Empire on our own, we just need to find its weaknesses and hit it hard, causing one point to fester. The social contradictions brought about by the feudal empire are becoming more and more prominent, and isn't Suel's republican revolution very similar to the October Revolution of that year? This whirlwind is bound to get stronger and stronger. ”

"But what does that have to do with us? Do we also believe in Suel's republican revolution? And then plunge into the torrent of the republican revolution? ”

"The revolution is not only Suel's, nor is there only Suel's political form, but the revolution will certainly break the old bottles and cans. Have you ever thought that if you look at the normal course of historical development, when a country with feudal slavery constantly revolts and revolts of slaves, and at the same time there are other revolutionary undercurrents surging, those feudal rulers will definitely be frightened and will definitely adopt a more severe and tightening policy to suppress it, but what about now? The British Empire actually launched a policy of abolishing slavery on a trial basis, which should be appropriate to describe it as wishing to quench thirst, right? Therefore, some people foresaw that the building would collapse, and tried to buy more time with this pilot trial system. ”

"Are you saying that the feudal dynastic ruling system of the entire Western world may soon face a sea change?"

"It doesn't have to be the whole Western world, it could be the whole world. The spark of revolution may ignite an entire grassland in just one night. ”

"But you can't feel it at all on Paradise Island, right? Before, the most noisy people on the island were the Protestants, but even they just didn't want religion to serve politics, so where was the undercurrent of revolution? ”

"Then why don't you feel the undercurrent of revolution here? One possibility is that this place is very far away from the British Empire, and everything is lagging behind, and the other possibility is that someone is deliberately protecting this place, using an invisible barrier to isolate and filter the paradise island from the outside world. ”

"You mean Duke Jackson?"

"I'm not sure, but you've heard his last words tonight, and I'm sure he's the one who met the Empire State Building! The so-called proposals for the abolition of slavery that were presented to him were nothing more than a faΓ§ade, and the abolition of slavery was planned by himself as he prepared for the great changes that followed. ”

These things that the man with glasses said still sound very reasonable, and if his set of statements is believed, then many things can be explained.

"But in this way, will Jackson not be the greatest obstacle in your path? Unless there's a direct showdown between you. ”

"Theoretically, it's true, but I know too little about him, and the resources he has now are not equal to mine, and I'm too passive and too dangerous to cooperate with him, so my best choice is you!"

This time I neither agreed, but I also did not directly refuse, it is not that I am really willing to be in cahoots with the man in glasses, but I want to maintain this ambiguous relationship, so that we will not be completely kept in the dark when they are conspiring.

When I returned to the winery, Long Xin'er had already fallen asleep, and I smiled at her sleeping and sweet appearance, and then rolled up my bed on the ground with my own bed.

When I slept in a daze, I suddenly felt some unusual noises in the room, I thought it was a thief, and quickly sat up, but found that it was Long Xin'er lying on the floor.

"This damn girl is also powerful enough, and she can sleep on the floor." I shook my head and stood up to carry her back to bed, but when she turned it over, it wasn't that simple! Long Xin'er's face was pale, the corners of her mouth were overflowing with blood, and beads of sweat the size of beans were dripping on her forehead.

"What's wrong with you?" I quickly asked at a loss, and at the same time I wondered how she was fine when I came back, why did she suddenly become like this? Aside from the strange noise just now, there's nothing else wrong with it!
