Chapter 273: Seeking Stability and Change (I)
This person named Li Yunlong is not very outstanding in terms of appearance and temperament, and his dress is the same as other Chinese in Nanyang, with a strange atmosphere of combining things and things. It's just that when Xu Changqing looked at him carefully, it was obvious that Li Yunlong was not simple. His appearance is nothing more than a small luck in physiognomy, which means that the limit of his career and wealth is at most to the point of being a rich man. However, his luck and physiognomy are completely different, he is for the Nine Hidden Dragons, ** into the fate, and Tianshu is in charge of the main palace, which is a very rich and noble appearance embraced by the dragon and the tiger. In addition, there is a faint purple qi in the birth of his heir, which shows that some of the descendants of this person will be high and powerful, and achieve the life of the prince.
Li Yunlong's strange appearance was not only visible to Xu Changqing, but Guan Poming on the side also noticed the faint purple aura of Li Yunlong's heir's palace. Guan Poming also has the science of observing qi and breaking life among the miscellaneous studies that Guan Poming learned from Guo Sandao, although he is not very proficient, and he is far from being able to observe the subtleties and see through the whole things, but it is enough to see Li Yunlong's physiognomy and luck.
Just when Guan Poming wanted to ask Li Yunlong's birth date in order to further deduce the ins and outs of this purple qi, Xu Changqing's cough interrupted him, and at the same time made him realize that this was not a good place to ask such questions.
Xu Changqing's cough not only prevented Guan Po's life, but also made the chaotic room return to its previous quietness. After seeing that everyone was quiet, Xu Changqing turned his head to look at Li Yunlong, motioned for him to sit down, and then answered his previous question: "Indeed, as Mr. Li said, an army is useless, and it is useless to destroy all the natives, as long as the attention of foreigners is still focused on Southeast Asia, then the Chinese will never come out." But if the attention of foreigners is diverted to other places? Southeast Asia has become a piece of chicken ribs in the eyes of foreigners?"
"How is this possible?" everyone had a mixed voice of doubt, Feng Jiusheng also frowned, and reminded: "Sir, maybe I don't know how important Southeast Asia is in the minds of foreigners, the ships of eastern and western trade need to pass through the waters of Southeast Asia in order to circulate with each other, how can foreigners give up this important land?"
"Old Grace, there is one thing that may be that you are mistaken. Xu Changqing had long expected that everyone would be suspicious, so he smiled and explained: "The reason why foreigners attach importance to Southeast Asia is indeed because it is a shipping hub, but this key point is only Malacca, not the whole Southeast Asia." As long as the Chinese in Southeast Asia do not touch the bottom line of Malacca, the foreigner, then the foreigners will have much less resistance to things such as the establishment of a Chinese businessman. ”
"It seems to make sense. After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads and began to discuss with each other in a whisper.
Xu Changqing did not speak immediately, but waited for everyone's discussion to become quieter before continuing: "Now the European countries are constantly strife, the friction and struggle between Britain and France and Germany and Austria-Hungary are increasing day by day, and the surrounding countries of all sizes are gradually involved, and the whole Europe can be said to be full of war clouds, and it is imminent. Looking at its general fortune, there will inevitably be an earth-shattering war in Europe within five years, and then it will be the best time for Chinese businessmen to establish a state in Southeast Asia. ”
"What? will there be a big war in Europe?" everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this, and then they showed doubts, obviously not believing Xu Changqing's words.
Xu Changqing had no intention of explaining, and continued: "Before the European war, what you need to do is to gather all the Chinese in Southeast Asia to save and hide their strength. According to the method I mentioned before, the struggle with the natives was used to gradually grasp the real power of some islands and cities, and at the same time, the Chinese army was also trained. When the war in Europe began, it could provoke India and Annam to rebel, attract all the combined British and French armies in Asia to these two places, and then quickly wipe out all the natives of the surrounding islands with a thunderbolt, and completely control the islands of Southeast Asia. At this time, they made overtures to Britain and France, established a governing body similar to the British parliamentary system, and expressed their willingness to administer some islands in Southeast Asia that they did not value on behalf of Britain and France. As long as this step is done, Britain and France will do their best to make it happen, even if you don't want to be a state. ”
"What about the United States?" Li Yunlong stood up again, pointed to the United States, which accused part of the Philippines, and said: "Will the United States be willing to let us establish a country under their noses?"
Xu Changqing nodded and said: "Naturally, they will not be willing, but when the European war starts, their attention will be more focused on Europe, after all, the vast majority of immigrants from the United States are from Europe, and they will definitely not let go of this opportunity to meddle in European affairs." As for you, you only need to deepen your relationship with the American political and business circles in these years, and hint that they will establish a regime that favors them, and then believe that the United States will not only not be an obstacle, but may also become a help, after all, they have also coveted trade in Southeast Asia for a long time, but they have been occupied by Britain and France, and they cannot intervene. ”
"What a technique of connecting horizontal and vertical!Sir, he wants us to be the Qin State, make friends from afar and attack closely, and take advantage of the contradictions between the great powers to gradually grow. An old man sitting beside Feng Jiusheng touched his beard and nodded, obviously attracted by Xu Changqing's plan, after thinking for a while, he looked up at Xu Changqing, got up and hugged his fists, and saluted: "The old man is Lin Yuan, the chairman of the board of directors of Singapore's Shengjing Trading Company, dare to ask Mr. Lin Yuan that a big war is about to break out in Europe, is there any basis?"
"He is the elder of the outer hall of the Demon Slayer Lin family. Just when the old man stood up, Guan Poming on the side used the secret technique to transmit the sound and told Xu Changqing about the old man's other identity.
After hearing this, Xu Changqing had a trace of doubt on his face, because he couldn't feel any trace of cultivation from the old man, if this old man's cultivation had not reached the point of becoming a saint, then the old man would not have any cultivation methods at all.
Perhaps sensing Xu Changqing's question, Lin Yuan explained: "Although the old man is from the Lin family, he doesn't know anything about the Lin family's mastery, and he is just a secular person. ”
Xu Changqing smiled indifferently and said, "Since the old man is a secular person, how can I explain to the old man how I know that there will be a big war in Europe? As for the basis for what you said, you can look at those Western newspapers, and you will naturally be able to find some clues from them. My founding plan has been fully explained, as for whether you want to obey or not, it depends on whether you have the courage to do so!"
