Super Chief - Chapter 723

Just as the ministers of the Kingdom of Spain were sad, and the capital of the Great Chinese Empire on the other side of the ocean went to Beijing, Shi Xiong also taught Joracrulu and some high-level officials a lesson.

　　 The cause of the incident is very simple, that is, the letter of credential submitted to Spain.

“Your Majesty, are we a little too anxious to do this? You said last year that you want to give those Vasicchus a year. Now the time has not come. We have persecuted the Spaniards so early, will they? Turn your face? You said before that the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the rabbit can kick the eagle to death. Let’s do this. If the Spaniards are really anxious, we…” As the Prime Minister of the Empire, he still thinks about things very well. has depth.

　　 Shixiong smiled and shook his head, then looked at the right helpers below, and decided to explain to them.

　　 “Do you know that there is a mysterious and powerful country in the far east?”

　　 Everyone nodded in unison. The boss told them about the mysterious Eastern dynasty.

　　 “The one in power in that great dynasty now is an emperor named Kangxi, and that dynasty has now reached its peak.”

　　 “Is it stronger than our Dahua Empire?” Kuaima couldn’t help asking.

“Hehe, for now, our Dahua Empire cannot be compared with that powerful dynasty. Apart from anything else, within that dynasty, the population alone has reached 300 million! And what about us? Less than five. million…”

　　 This group of senior executives will actively learn knowledge when they are busy. Of course, they will not be confused about the difference between five million and three hundred million.

　　 So when Shi Xiong said the “300 million”, everyone stopped talking.

“The reason why I want to start with Spain in advance is because Spain seems to be at its peak, but in fact this country is no longer good.” After a pause, Shi Xiong stood up and continued as he walked. The Kingdom of Spain is now governed by Carlos, and the Spanish Bourbon dynasty under Carlos III is very similar to the Qing dynasty under the reign of Emperor Kangxi of China.”

　　 In the distant China, when Qianlong was the emperor, it can be said that it was the peak period of the Qing Dynasty, and later generations even gave this period the title of “Kang and Qian dynasty”.

　　 During the reign of Carlos III, historians later called it the golden peak of the Spanish Bourbon dynasty.

　　 And whether it was Carlos III or Kangxi, they both lived in the same era—in 1788, Kangxi still claimed to be a “full old man”.

“But whether it is Carlos III or Qianlong, although this era is the golden age of a dynasty, and the most important point is that both of them have developed their traditional industries to the extreme with a closed attitude, but they have I don’t know, while they are creating a false prosperity, they will lead their country to unavoidable weakness.”

　　 Shi Xiong’s words made many people’s faces show incomprehensible expressions, so Shi Xiong continued to explain.

“The reason I say this is because Qianlong, like Carlos III, was the centralized monarch of a great country that was in prosperity and decline. But both of them were too conservative and tried to close foreign trade and create a self-sufficient dynasty. But in this age, the prosperity caused by the self-sufficient closed circle is just a false prosperity. Why do you say that? Because in this era, with the continuous improvement of production technology, with the outbreak of the industrial revolution, a country The productivity of the country will be greatly liberated and improved. However, the internal market of a country is ultimately limited, and if you want to maintain the productivity of your country, you must find more markets. Therefore, in this era, If a country wants to truly prosper, it must continue to contact the outside world and generate trade with more countries, so as to truly stimulate the continuous improvement of its own productivity and thus stimulate the emergence of more new technologies. It is the foundation for a country to truly lead other countries. Regardless of whether it is Spain or the Qing Dynasty, what it is doing now is exactly the opposite of this trend, so these two dynasties are not far from collapse…”

　　 The stone bear who came from later generations, of course, knew very well what kind of situation Spain and the Qing Dynasty were facing at this time. The Qing Dynasty is now practicing retreat and lock-up of the country, especially at the end of Qianlong, when the lock-up and lock-up reached its peak, which directly ruined the destiny of this powerful country.

　　 Although the Spanish Bourbon dynasty had a large number of colonies on the American continent, Spain just kept plundering the wealth of these colonies without thinking of opening up colonial markets.

　　 Therefore, the two dynasties are actually exactly the same in terms of liberating productivity, the most important factor.

　　 Also similar is the Kingdom of France.

　　 In fact, the Kingdom of France reached its peak at the time of Louis XIV, but the French made the same mistake. As a result, Louis XVI was pushed to the guillotine as an inevitable result.

　　 In fact, Louis XVI was paying for Louis XIV. UU reading www.uukａnshu.com

　　 Similarly, in the Qing Dynasty in China, the collapse began during the Daoguang reign. But everyone knew that Emperor Daoguang was a good emperor who was thrifty and practical, but even Emperor Daoguang couldn’t stand his grandfather Qianlong’s misfortune too. So the Opium War broke out during the Daoguang period, which led to the collapse of the Qing dynasty. It is inevitable.

　　The same is also Carlos IV, the son of Carlos III.

　　 Although Carlos IV was a faint emperor, far behind Emperor Daoguang, and was eventually forced to give way, the root cause of all this had actually been formed when his father Carlos III was in power.

　　 Shixiong knows all this naturally, but the people in front of him don’t know, so Shixiong can only explain this in another way, and at the same time tell them what the Industrial Revolution will bring.

　　 These right-hand men in front of them have already begun to manage a country, and they can no longer make a fuss like before, so they must understand some important things. For example, the relationship between productivity and the market.

After giving a lesson to these right-hand men, Shi Xiong said: “In fact, I chose to do it at this time. There is a more important reason, that is, I have been instructed by the great sun god, the king of Spain. Los III is now very sick in bed, and he will die at the end of this year. Spain is now uninhabited. By next year, a more serious riot will affect the whole of Europe. By then, Europeans will not be able to take care of it. Us. So this is the best time for us to do it!”
