Chapter 1510 Blocking the door
Wang Faxiang sneered: "We are the perfect Han people."
"Of course," Liu Ji nodded and said, "But we won't think so much when people's hearts change. We must consider this level. I feel that the Propaganda Department in Qingcheng is already doing this."
Li Guobin sighed and said, "The image of an adult has been a bit slandering recently. There is no good way yet."
"Let me continue to talk." Liu Ji continued: "The second is that we will face the Donglu in the future. From the sandy land of Korqin to the forest along the Nenjiang River, to the Shisanshan Mountains, Guangning Waste City and Yizhou Acropolis, the front line is more than a thousand miles. Although compared to the vastness of the grassland, we actually only need to guard the Yizhou Guards and Guangning in western Liaoning. But to think that we are not only facing the Donglu, but also the Ming Dynasty behind us, which is eyeing the covetous Ming Dynasty. In the past, we were doing business with the Donglu, and the two families were still considered allies. Since last year, we have had many military frictions with the Donglu, and at the same time cut off trade. Now we occupy the more we have occupied the market.
According to the grassland, the road to the development of the Donglu to the grassland was cut off. The Donglu's grand strategy was to seize the land of the Han family in the north of the Yellow River and restore their great gold. This can be seen from their country name, which is an ambition. They are not able to settle for the second best. The place and population in Liaodong cannot be independent. As long as they are not stupid, they will work hard to make progress in a period of strong military strength. Otherwise, once the Han family recovers their strength, they will send 100,000 elite soldiers to the first generals and they will be completely destroyed. This contradiction is irreconcilable. We will definitely have a war with the Donglu in the future, but I cannot be sure now. When will this time be."
"Incisive." Li Guobin exclaimed: "Brother Liu's words are better than reading for ten years."
"Stop coming." Liu Ji said with a blank face: "This kind of inferior flattery is not happy."
The three of them looked at each other and laughed, feeling tacit understanding.
Li Guobin continued: "The three are the changes in people's hearts, right?"
"It's...what I just said, the situation in the future will change in the court, and the Donglu will change in the people, especially the gentry, and there will be considerable changes in the public opinion. The Publicity Department does not know how to fight this battle."
"When it comes, the matter comes." Wang Faxiang heard something outside, got up and looked at it, and smiled bitterly, "Someone is here to make trouble."
...
The person who came to cause trouble was a student who lived in the capital exam. He failed the last five-year Apocalypse exam. He was depressed and could not read books recently, so he paid considerable attention to current affairs.
There are many juren who stayed in the capital to prepare for the exam. Although the prices in the capital are high, these people do not rent houses and most of them live in clubs or temples, which can save a lot of money.
Usually they interact with each other, trying to gain some relationships in the capital to prepare for the next subject exam.
Those who came to make trouble today were all Juren of the same year. They failed the exam last year. They had to wait for the eighth year of the Apocalypse to take the exam, and there were two years left. They had to study in the capital slowly. In fact, they had a very limited time to read and study every day.
In places like the capital, except for a few Juren, most people cannot study hard like before passing the Juren. In fact, there is no use for studying hard now. The basic skills that Juren has achieved before taking the Jinshi are enough. If the foundation is enough, you will definitely be able to pass. Few elites need to take the Jinshi twice. Perhaps many of them will be able to get a real-life study in this level, and the Jinshi level is relatively easier.
These juren gathered together every day, and have not been interested in chasing and laughing recently. Instead, they used their time and energy to inquire about the affairs of the court and paid great attention to the movements in the north. As soon as the incident happened this morning, the atmosphere in the entire capital was quite tense. The emperor urgently summoned the cabinet ministers, which clearly showed that the war between Hutchison and Chahar had already had a clear result.
At this time, the opportunity is coming.
The few juren were full of excitement on their faces. The more people gathered around, the more excited they became.
Of course, they will not be afraid of people who remember each other. They are businessmen in terms of identity, and their eloquence and knowledge are juren. Even if the city censor comes, they can only bow and apologize and leave. If the five city military officers come over, they will just curse and leave!
Li Mengchen, a sir-skinned son in Suizhou, Henan, was tall and thin. Standing at the very center of the Hutchison shop, he looked arrogant and completely ignored the Hutchison guys because his temperament was too annoying. Not only did the Hutchison guys look disgusted, but even the people around him had no good impression of him.
However, Li Mengchen felt very good. He recently met a eunuch from the Xinwang Mansion. In order to get to know the other party, he gave him a gift of 300 taels of silver. It was a good thing he had to pick from in an antique shop in Dengshikou... It was precisely because of this level that Li Mengchen knew that Xinwang really hated Hu Ji very much.
This is not the reason why Li Mengchen came today. The eunuch also specifically told Li Mengchen: There are many people in the capital who want to move and record hands, and they are all people in high positions.
If it weren't for Wei Zhongxian, Tian Ergeng and others who were pressing him, I'd probably be the trouble of someone coming to find Hutchison.
Hutchison gave tens of thousands of taels of silver in the capital a year, and could only buy superficial peace. The senior executives in the powerful circle had long been furious about Hutchison's profit of more than one million a year. Even if Hutchison had the strength to dominate the grassland, as long as this strength could not reach the capital of the Ming Dynasty, it would not be stopped by these people, and they were still trying to make Hutchison and had already begun the process of testing.
Li Mengchen didn't mind being used. He, a Henan scholar, had no decent network of relationships. If he could be noticed by those big names, it would be equivalent to entering the circle of power ahead of schedule. The hope of becoming a Jinshi is much greater.
Once you pass the Jinshi, your bright future will be waiting for him, and you are much better than your own qualifications to endure hardships.
"Brother Li, the other party can't hide, what can you do?"
The person who spoke was Wang Zhengzhi, the son of Beizhi River, who looked giggling and didn't look straight. He came here this time to make up for his own numbers. He was not as strong as Li Mengchen's utilitarianism, so his expression was quite relaxed.
"That can only be a killer move." Li Mengchen smiled slightly, and the attitude of Hutchison Trading Company ignoring the company was expected to be expected... No one has ever come here to make trouble before. The sour scholar who learned dragon-slaying techniques wanted to become famous. The gangsters who just came from other places wanted to get some benefits in front of this fat big business. There are also those self-righteous big men from other places who wanted to fight Qiufeng on Hutchison. These people failed without exception and could only become jokes.
"Come on, open the two plaques I gave to Huji and ask them to take a good look."
More and more people gathered around, and even Zhou Kui, who rushed over to find out the news, was among them. I believe that there must be similar people in the crowd. Generals from the Jingying Generals came to see the scenery in a private outfit. A playboy from a marquis or count family with commanders, or eunuchs sent from the palace, a warrior from the East Factory, and a captain from the Jinyiwei were mixed in the crowd.
There are even some long-time companions in the civil servants' residences who are sent out by the owner to see what is happening here.
In normal times, there wouldn't be so many people making such a big noise. In the morning, the emperor's urgent call to the palace masters had already spread. The atmosphere in the market was quite subtle. Although the critical situation of Hutchison's army approaching the city was not yet reached, many people insisted that Zhang Han was ambitious and would definitely wave his sword at the Ming Dynasty.
Many people have already said that Zhang Han’s kindness and love for the people is to dress up his image. Similar to Wang Mang and Cao Cao, he is a hero who ignores his king and father and has a bad ambition.
Hutchison's previous propaganda work fell into a very difficult and embarrassing situation, as if people's thoughts and public opinion changed overnight.
Before Hutchison unified the grassland, Zhang Han was an outstanding business leader who started his own business by himself. After being a famous official, he fought back because of the harassment of the Mongols, and the image of a lone hero.
In addition, Hutchison has been trading fairly, and Hutchison's clinic has won a lot of points among ordinary people.
Now that public opinion has changed, no one who has received the benefits of Hutchison before knows what it is to say, it seems that overnight, Zhang Han became the living Cao Cao in this world!
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty was not Emperor Xian of Han. If both sides had to fight, it was nothing more than Zhang Han's undeserved ambition. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty had been passed down for more than 200 years. Since ancient times, he has gained the righteousness of the country and the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. He has never lost his virtue. If Zhang Han invaded for his own benefit, he could only confirm that this was a person who did not do anything to achieve his goal. His previous actions were nothing more than to win over and win over people's hearts. If such a person won the world in the future, who knows what kind of thing would do? Even Dong Zhuo was still a loyal minister and general of the Han family before he entered the capital?
This kind of rebuke is indeed quite serious. Hutchison and Zhang Han actually have quite a lot of supporters, but under such loud doubts, many people dare not refute it, or do not know how to refute it.
There are even a considerable number of people who have a good impression of Hutchison, which is what is called insufficient hope.
If the Ming Dynasty had civil turmoil and the people were in poverty, and Zhang Han had accumulated enough prestige, then everyone, all classes were eager to come out and get rid of the chaos.
Before the mess, Wang Mang was a new emperor that everyone in the world could accept. From any perspective, this person was flawless. The nobles accepted him, the generals were loyal to him, and the scholars and the people believed that he could create a brilliant new dynasty. Even the royal families of Liu Han were half-believing, but at least no one resisted.
It was not until Wang Mang messed up everything that everyone in the world opposed it.
Li Yuan was also optimistic. From the rise of the army in Hedong to the entry of Guanzhong, the journey was very smooth, because except for Duke Tang, the Guanqing nobles from Guanzhong to Hedong could not find a suitable leader, a family that everyone could accept to establish a new dynasty.
To get the right country means that it is quite difficult to get the country. To get the country is easy to get the country, the roots will be crooked. Zhu Yuanzhang did it with his own blood and sweat, and he deserved the reputation of the world.
