Chapter 180: Debate

The A.D. era?

The year is 1702.

Now in this world, the Ming calendar prevails, and even the calendar is a revised lunar calendar, so there will be no children who wonder why the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom in April.

"Sir, here's a book."

Shen Yu came to the signing office and said politely.

"Okay."

The old man who signed the sale, blonde and blue-eyed, politely took out a book and signed his name on it.

"Although this book is good, it's a pity that it's too pessimistic, and the ass is sitting on the side of the Westerners, trying every means to weaken the Ming Dynasty and our civilization, we must read it critically."

The young man who had just argued with the old professor said this.

"Uh-huh."

Shen Yu nodded and began to flip through the book.

The book is interesting and tells about another piece of history.

Chinese civilization, after the Han Dynasty, the first empire ended, classicism completely withdrew from the stage, began to decline, although there was the rise of the Tang Dynasty, but still did not find a way out, and this scholar wrote, is another possibility, the Ming Dynasty did not Zheng He went to the West to Europe, let alone Sanfeng Zhenren swept the world, but after the involution, step by step declined, closed self-defense, until more than 300 years later, was defeated by the re-rising Mongolia in the north, had to retreat to the south, and the northern Hu people confronted each other, The scene of the Northern and Southern Dynasties was maintained.

"This is impossible, Da Ming will never be so miserable, and even if it is like that, there must be a new hero who will come out and change the world."

The young people shouted angrily, and the nearby book buyers did not come, and the front of the signing desk was deserted, and the number of people was like that of a certain country's friendly politicians to China.

"You're right, stop arguing, let's eat."

Shen Yu beckoned and motioned to the shopkeeper to help order a luxury snack set and let everyone eat something here.

In this era, people who dare to write like this are a bit like those who can say no to writing about Japan back then, and they are still very brave......

Because of the confrontation with the Hu people, and the national strength is weak, so the civilization in the East has come to a standstill, on the contrary, those small countries in the West, attacking each other, tossing each other, but blooming a brilliant civilization, those people, like the Ming people, began to develop overseas......

"Therefore, this is completely wrong, if the north and the south face each other on the side of the Ming Dynasty, then it will definitely develop overseas, and with the population, etc., it will definitely expand rapidly, rather than being restrained."

The luxury snack gift package was delivered, and the young man was a little embarrassed, but at the invitation of Shen Yu, he sat at the table, and the old professor was not polite, and tasted the delicious food together.

Anyway, there will be no one at the signing meeting.

"Well, you're right."

Shen Yu nodded, but didn't say much, but continued to read the book with relish.

"Actually, I wanted to be a little more radical."

The old professor looked to be in his fifties, his hair was a little gray, and his face was full of wrinkles, but he was in excellent spirits.

Outsiders may see him as old and frail, but Shen Yu can feel that his spirit is burning like a torch, extremely strong and solid.

This is also one of the benefits obtained after cultivating Xuanwuding.

Such an old man is rare.

After taking a sip of Dunhuang Coke, the old professor sighed, "I want to set up the decline of the Ming Dynasty, the barbarians in the north rising again, conquering the Ming Dynasty, and then closing the country and ruling more people with a small number of people, which finally led to the decline of Eastern culture step by step, and Western civilization took advantage of this opportunity to rise."

"How is that possible?"

"How is it impossible, you look at the Daming clan, if it is not reformed, it will be millions after nine generations, and in the end it will be everywhere, and there will be financial bankruptcy, the Xiaoice River period, etc., these are superimposed, if it is a feudal country, it will not be three hundred years.

To be honest, the way the Ming Dynasty is now is a miracle, and the Yongle Emperor three hundred years ago changed everything

It's a pity that Emperor Jianwen didn't win at that time."

"So, why not write it like that?"

"Because that's so outrageous, readers can't accept it, and they must say I'm making it up."

"yes, I understand."

Shen Yu nodded, in fact, history is even more outrageous than the old professor's setting, who would have thought that a small force would seize the weakest time of the Ming Dynasty and win the world like child's play before the new heroes got up?

By the way, which time-traveler woke up the Yongle Emperor?

When Shen Yucai crossed over, he carefully studied the history, and did not find any trace of the traverser, including any poems, articles, etc., as if everything was just the emperor changed his mind, and then changed everything.

"It's good that you didn't write like this, how could Da Ming end up like that? To be honest, if I didn't like history, I wouldn't have read your books."

It was the young man who spoke, and his words made the old professor smile helplessly.

The old professor didn't argue much, but Shen Yu still accosted him.

"Your attitude is wrong, the overhead is the overhead, the academic needs to be explored, I don't think there is anything wrong with Professor William, it's really not interesting to read too much of the same sycophant, I watched a certain author Huoniu not long ago, and he also said that he would lead everyone to occupy the moon, and plant the banner of the Ming Dynasty on it...... Professor William's book is good and at least offers another line of thought, doesn't it?"

The professor's name was William, and he was named Gao Pei in the Ming Dynasty.

Shen Yu's words made the old professor and the young man laugh, his book is very unpopular, and the people who can read it and come to debate with him are actually people who like it.

"I'm from the Department of Chinese at Imperial Capital University, and I've written a lot of papers about civilization and the future, but what about ...... After these things were published, except for a very small number of professionals, other people were not interested at all, so I suddenly had an idea, why not write an empty article, such as the fall of Eastern civilization and the rise of Western civilization, and then all kinds of possibilities happened in the middle, so that many people will see and discuss it."

"What's the point?"

The young man was a little unimpressed.

"It makes a lot of sense."

Shen Yu sighed, pointed to the tourists coming and going outside, as well as the thriving market, and asked the young man, "What do you think of when you see this?"

"It's prosperous, it's rich, it's ......."

The young man thought for a moment and said.

"Yes, the young man who is now employed in Daming has a monthly salary of nearly 1,000 yuan, which is enough for him to get married and have children.

As long as you work for more than three years, the salary will increase, one person can support a family of four, the wife is a housewife, you can travel twice a year, buy a car, etc., and become a small leader or promoted, the salary is higher, which makes many foreigners try their best to smuggle to Daming, after all, we here, the price of a luxury hotel is about 100, and 100 yuan is equal to a month's income over there.

They would rather give up their high education and go to Daming to wash dishes and deliver takeaways. 「

Shen Yu's words made the young man's face full of pride.

Yes, how beautiful, how brilliant.

"The income of 100 yuan a month, because there is no labor law protection, and you have to work overtime, etc., is very difficult to get, and this year's Golden Orchid Award for Best Foreign Language is an example, the life on the plantation in South America is compared with the big collar. In the eyes of those people, this is heaven."

Shen Yu continued, his voice full of sighs.

"In this way, it means that the Ming Dynasty is prosperous......

"Yes."

Shen Yu sighed, did not continue to explain, and continued to read the book written by the old professor.

In his book, Europe led civilization and became the leader of the world, and then eight or nine billion Europeans became the masters of the world, and they lived the same life as the Ming people now, but gradually they found that a large number of low-end industries were transferred out, and the labor cost rose even more.

Well, this kind of thing that borrows from the past and satirizes the present, Piri Yangqiu

, Shen Yu likes it.

Professor William raised a lot of questions, in fact, about the current Ming Dynasty.

"The book is good, it's really good."

Shen Yu nodded, the old professor's book took a lot of thought, especially about the world, which is even more admirable.

"What's good...... Daming is so brilliant now, it's not a problem for you to say it......

The young man muttered, Shen Yu and the old professor just shook their heads, the old professor didn't want to argue with the young man, and Shen Yu ......

Fight for what? Director Shen is a decent person.

"What do you think, sir?"

The old professor had been observing Shen Yu since Shen Yu came in.

"Me? What can I say? But Mr. You're right, the next step is the industrial transfer of Daming, a large number of low-end, mid-end industries, will move to third world countries, after all, manpower is too cheap, and Daming's labor laws and so on also make those manufacturers very uncomfortable, it is not a bad thing to transfer industry."

"His Majesty the Emperor and the Council will not agree to this."

"Would you rather go into a factory as a worker, or sit in an office as a white-collar worker, the former is seven or eight hundred yuan a month, and the latter is three or four thousand a month or even higher, you are not willing to expect those factory owners to be more conscious than you?"

"But, in this case, what about the ordinary people of Daming?"

"Don't worry, it will be better in a short time, the salary is higher, you don't have to be tired, the environment is better."

Shen Yu said with a smile.

At this moment, the door of the bookstore opened, and a group of people walked in, led by a man of about fifty years old, but full of black hair, who walked with ease and anticipation, and walked with great grace, and looked like a person with authority.

Well, this time the storm came, and a lot of flights were delayed.

When this person was still at the door, several bodyguards checked floor by floor, and someone stood on the main road, looking around vigilantly.

"What a majesty!"

A young man pursed his lips with some disdain.

"Don't talk nonsense, that person is from the Lion Fund."

Another young man whispered.

"Huh?"

The young man who spoke paused for a moment, and pursed his lips even more disdainfully.

Three hundred years ago, Sanfeng Zhenren and Yongle Emperor promoted the plan to go to the West, created a generation of great causes, and the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty also developed, extending to this day, everyone praises the prestige of Yongle Emperor, but what really promotes the progress of the times, there is another hand, capital!

As the core of the existence of capital, a series of industries such as ticket number, silver village, pawnshop, dart board and so on have gradually formed a real modern banking industry, and with the development of the Ming Dynasty, it has become a huge and extremely terrifying monster.

Swords can kill, but capital can make people happily commit suicide!

Especially if you are given a meager salary plus a loan!

In another time and space, there are still many twists and turns, such as the decline of the Netherlands, France, Britain, etc., there is competition between different camps, etc., the bank group you and I fight each other, and have to form a lot of rules, and in this world, the bank group has developed smoothly for three hundred years!

This kind of smooth sailing refers to the fact that they have absorbed the most advanced, smartest and most powerful talents of the Ming Dynasty with the help of the hegemony of the Ming Dynasty, and in countless open and secret battles and bloody battles, several banking giants have been produced, a super monster closely linked to the Central Bank of Daming!

At first, this monster could still be tamed and suppressed, but after that, it became more and more out of control, because the monster was integrated into Daming!

One of the important reasons for the world war 20 years ago was the unprecedented super economic crisis that swept the world more than 30 years ago.

In that super economic crisis, countless families and businesses went bankrupt, and even many countries were the same, and the currency depreciated tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of times, and the whole world was in shambles. Z.br>

After that, did people learn their lesson?

No, phase

On the contrary, what could be better and more interesting than harvesting leeks by financial means?

Daming is a country with a constitutional monarchy!

Many families in the Ming Dynasty have been rich and glorious for more than 300 years!

By what? Farming? Industry?

No, it's finance!

Emperor Yongle put forward the idea of financial hegemony, which is deeply engraved in the hearts of many people.

And the lion fund in the middle of the road is the investment bank in the Ming Imperial Bank Group, a knife that harvests leeks from all over the world, including its own people.

Two bodyguards are in front, Lu Zhongfa walks behind, and on his left is a girl of fourteen or fifteen, delicate like a doll, with a smile like a flower on her face, but she is a little low, huh...... Shen Yu has seen her photo, she is Lu Zhongfa's fifteen-year-old daughter, the little guy known as the financial prodigy, she has contacted Shen Yu several times and wants to play the heroine.

After Lu Zhongfa walked in, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, but Shen Yu just looked at it, and continued to flip through the Western Era.

"Huh? Professor William?"

Lu Zhongfa turned his head and saw Professor William who was signing books, nodded, and walked over politely.

"Still writing your broken book?"

His tone was seven points of disdain and three points of mockery.

"This senior William is my classmate back then, a figure who came to study in Daming, he has a very smart brain, especially good at thinking, and puts forward a lot of novel theories, but it's a pity that he ...... He turned down my invitation."

Lu Zhong smiled and groaned at the woman next to him, "When I formed the team, I invited him to join in, but he refused, saying that he didn't want to make bloody money, saying that my money was dirty."

"Ugh...... You're still in this temper."

William sighed, but didn't say anything more.

"How's this book?"

Lu Zhongfa didn't look at the Western Era, but turned his head and looked at his daughter.

She reads books very quickly, almost flipping through them.

"Okay, kind of interesting, but only a little bit of fun, Professor William...... You shouldn't study history."

She sighed, regret in her eyes.

"If you don't stand on a high place, how can you look down on the landscape? You always feel that it is not good, so you have to make up history, which is not good."

There was a hint of disdain at the corner of the girl's mouth, and Professor William thought about it, but did not refute it.

"Alright, let's go."

Lu Zhongfa didn't look at the alumni of the year again, turned around and walked outside, Lu Xiangjun said hello and stayed.

"I'm sorry, but my father is such a strong man, Professor William, I like your work, really."

The bloodline of a fifteen-year-old girl is not pure, her mother should be a foreigner, so she has pale green eyes, and her hair is not pure black, she should be innocent and full of vitality, at this moment Shen Yu saw the shadow of the road in her body.

Serious, serious, persistent, etc.

Well, yes, a person who received an elite education since she was a child, can truly experience the magic of money at the age of seven or eight, and then achieves results step by step, she is known as a financial wizard, of course, she is different from other young JK.

"Don't bring me a top hat, tell me, what's the matter with you?"

Professor William sighed, the scene today made him a little depressed.

"This book is very good, but unfortunately there are not many people who know the goods, and there are only three people at the signing meeting, which makes me disappointed, everyone is a reader, I ask the three, what do you think of this book?"

The girl's appearance is beautiful, but she speaks like a big boss, sharp and without flowers, facing Shen Yu and the other three.

The two young men said a few words, nothing more than the setting was too fake, etc., picking out the details and saying that the old professor was not good like this, while Shen Yu continued to flip through the books.

Xuanwu definitely made his memory increase greatly, and the speed of reading was also very fast, just when the girl was talking to the other two, Shen Yu finally read

Finished the book.

"What do you think, sir?"

"The book is good, but Professor Gao's heart is still too soft."

Shen Yu smiled and replied.

"Please."

"Since it is set, then set it to be ruthless, in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, they fought each other, their vitality was exhausted, and then the barbarians invaded, Shenzhou Lu sank, the barbarians learned the lessons of the Yuan Dynasty, and mastered the military power with foreign races, but released the civil power, for example, most of the champions of the Yuan Dynasty were foreign races, but this time they didn't fight for this, and there were all kinds of means to suppress the world, and the night came.

After that, Europe fought each other and expanded abroad, eventually breaking out into the Industrial Revolution, which colonized the world.

However, Europe became a war, and it was also defeated in a war.

War after war has consumed the vitality of Europe, and a large amount of wealth and talent have been displaced to the American continent.

The American continent is a continent with various resources and no foreign enemies, and here, after 200 years of operation, there is a brand new country that has absorbed the essence of the civilizations of various countries.

Then, the country became the most powerful country in the world, and at this time, they had a huge number of warships, a secure territory, a global base, and an infinite amount of wealth."

At this time, Shen Yu suddenly remembered the previous world.

Will he be able to go back?
