Tomorrow - v5 Chapter 170
Chapter Seventy Zero Confrontation at the Advanced Level
Such a rough encounter cannot be hidden from Little Descartes and Mr. Descartes.
Li Guocheng is very positive about this.
He has been communicating with people like Zhang Liang Qiaoyong for three full years, and he already knows what Mr. Descartes and later Little Descartes are like.
Mr. Descartes is a scholar of heaven and man, and his self-cultivation has penetrated into his life.
As far as wisdom is concerned, for scholars like him who are proficient in geometry, mathematics, physics, and even philosophy, his cognition of human nature may have reached another level.
Not to mention the little trick Meng Yuanhui and the others arranged, I am afraid that even the stories designed by Zhang Liang, Qiao Yong, and Little Descartes have long been seen through by this old man.
It’s just that he was heartbroken at the time, and finally a novel thing suddenly broke into his life, which ignited his vitality in an instant.
Does it matter whether Little Descartes is his grandson? Does it matter whether little Emily is her own granddaughter?
As long as the two children call his grandfather affectionately, that’s enough.
A person who has been alone all his life has a family relationship for the first time, which makes him feel very comfortable.
Since these two children are the children of France, what is the difference between his thoughts that have been sublimated to the Sky Scholars a long time ago?
Zhang Liang, the only thing Qiao Yong did right was to find the genius young Descartes.
Mr. Descartes doesn’t think he is in such a dying year, and there is nothing to be calculated for a wealthy old man. The only thing he can do is the knowledge he has worked hard in his life.
New disciplines are not orthodox in France. Zhang Liang and Qiao Yong used this genius child to seduce him. Didn’t he want to carry forward his doctrine through the extremely intelligent child of Descartes?
After weighing it, how can this matter be regarded as taking advantage of yourself, why not do it?
But Zhang Liang, Qiao Yong, these stupid fools, thought they had a trick, thinking that their layout was seamless and could be concealed from a famous philosopher who had seen through the world’s favors a long time ago.
Yesterday, when Zhang Liang came to report on his work, he also deliberately brought up this incident, taking it as his own proud work to invite credit.
At that time, Li Guocheng wanted to spit a mouthful of water on his face, thinking for a long time, only then forcibly held back and recognized their achievements.
After all, their abilities are so great that they cannot be forced to do things beyond their own abilities.
“Get out!”
Li Guocheng picked up a document again and treated Meng Yuanhui six people.
Watching the six people leave in embarrassment, Li Guocheng sighed: “There are so many stupid people in the world… and Yushan Academy has now become a base camp specializing in cultivating stupid people.”
He picked a few documents from the desk, held them in his hands, and prepared to go to His Majesty’s study. The day after tomorrow, it was the time for His Majesty to meet with Mr. Descartes, to see if His Majesty had any special arrangements.
When passing by the garden, I found Xia Wanchun sitting alone under a bayberry tree, playing chess boringly.
He came to Xia Wanchun with the paperwork and looked at the chessboard and said, “Always getting no man’s land is not a way.”
Xia Wanchun pulled out seven or eight white pieces from the black chess encirclement and said, “When the tiger is king, he must pee to determine his hunting range. Why don’t we do this?”
Li Guocheng Road: “Cost, cost is very important. Tigers could have lived a good life of eating meat every day. After you do this, the tigers can only adapt to eating grass. After a long time, the tigers will not have the physical strength to cope with the land grab. The tiger.”
Xia Wanchun looked up at Li Guocheng Road with interest: “You mean Raksha Kingdom?”
“Russia!”
“it’s the same.”
“In the past, the princes always focused on the land of the Central Plains, thinking that the Central Plains is the most fertile land in the world. Now, our vision has begun to spread all over the world. You should understand that the more north, the higher the cost of living. , The less time people have for activities.
I think that the Far North can only be used as our reserve, and we cannot develop it with a big fanfare. After all, the cost of development is too high.
According to the calculation of the secretary and supervisor, the cost of developing one mu of land in the north can be used to develop three acres of land in the south, while the output of three acres of land in the south is six times that of one acre of land in the north. My brother is the best at Yushan Academy , It is impossible not to know the truth of this. “
Xia Wanchun looked at Li Guocheng and snorted: “The mouse is short-sighted! You learned this at Yushan Academy? Do you know how important it is to the Han nationality to own a continent alone?
The most suitable territory for me in the future is surrounded by the sea on three sides, with only one side neighboring other countries, and this neighbor can only be a weak country deliberately left behind. This is a buffer zone.
After establishing such a foundation, we can retreat in the future and be self-sufficient, self-sufficient, and advance, and we can sweep all the way and dominate the world.
You don’t want to be rich with peace of mind, get out! “
“Oh!” Li Guocheng promised, and left the bayberry tree, which had not yet matured, holding the paperwork.
Xia Wanchun is now a military commander in a complete state of mind. After he has a hammer in his hand, everything looks like a nail. He always has to hit a hammer before he can feel relieved.
Li Guocheng is not interested in the Greater China geopolitics that Xia Wanchun is about to create.
He prefers a refined, rich, and powerful China, rather than making the Chinese people everywhere, which will delay the happy life that the people of Ming Dynasty should have enjoyed long ago.
Today’s Daming natives have a high desire to enter a happy and happy life as soon as possible, and many people no longer care about what is happening thousands of miles away.
This is a very strange phenomenon.
When the people of Ming Dynasty were constantly in danger of foreign invasion, they were eager to know what was happening outside. When the empire had completely expelled or slaughtered all the nearby aliens, they began to care about their current lives instead.
The voices against the expedition were louder than ever.
Li Guocheng walked through the three porches and saw the emperor who was making oyster sauce. He was accompanied by two craftsmen by his side.
The color of this pot of oyster sauce is very dark, and it is viscous and translucent, and the delicious flavor permeates the yard. This should be a good pot of oyster sauce.
Yun Zhao vigorously stirred the oyster sauce again, and said to the craftsman beside him: “Okay, let’s bottle it.”
Li Guocheng knew the emperor’s temper and was very interested in the unknown. Once the unknown became a reality, it was time for him to abandon this interest.
Waiting for the emperor to wash his hands, change into clothes that smell of oyster sauce, and hold a cup of fragrant tea to wait for the emperor to take a sip, Li Guocheng began to talk to the emperor about official duties.
“Your Majesty, Sun Guoxin sent a letter requesting your Majesty to allow the Qiang people to enter the Uzbekistan. The state minister’s opinion on this matter is that the Qiang people are untamable and the time is not long enough. Sun Guoxin thought it was already the best time.
Due to the heavy loss of the Usi Tibetan population, the vast Usi-Tibet Plateau has already been uninhabited for thousands of miles. This is not good for maintaining the country, and the Qiang people’s entry into Tibet originally meant to be punished. “
Yun Zhao thought for a while and said: “Send someone to replace the Nepalese royal family, kill the Nepalese prime minister, burn the Nepalese royal palace, and ask the religious leaders of Nepal if they can restrain their ambitions. If not, I Monk officials will be sent to help them govern Nepal.
He also told Sun Guoxin that he had a dispute with the Nepalese religious leader, and he should settle the dispute by himself, not to trouble me. “
Li Guocheng smiled and said: “After your majesty’s will arrives in Lhasa, Sun Living Buddha will definitely be very happy.”
Yun Zhao snorted: “His Sun Guoxin can’t always stay in Uszang. After dealing with Nepal, he should also come back.”
Li Guocheng bowed his head and said yes.
He took out a brocade box from his arms and placed it on the emperor’s desk, saying: “Your Majesty, this is China’s twelve-year new money.”
Yun Zhao opened the brocade box and poured out the six copper coins in it. After checking them one by one on the table, he said, “Brass?”
Li Guocheng Road: “Because it is hard currency, the previous copper six and lead zinc four coins are no longer in line with the market. The Treasury Department, the supervision department, thinks that Daming produces a lot of copper, and the old money should be abolished and replaced with this. Brass money is convenient to exchange with silver dollars and gold coins to achieve the goal of constant prices.”
Yun Zhao played with six Huang Cancan copper coins and said, “Are there many copper coins in circulation today?”
“His Majesty, the use of silver dollars and gold coins has not been much due to the replacement of silver bills. However, due to the large increase in the use of small denomination coins, after eight or ten years of coining new coins, they have to be used in twelve years. New money still needs to be minted so that it can meet the needs of the market.”
“Is there no factor in the plummeting copper price?”
“Yes, the Cuzang Division believes that at this time, the country has the highest profit for casting copper coins.”
“Aren’t there any lawbreakers who collect and store copper coins?”
“Your Majesty ~www.mtlnovel.com~ dare not say no, there is no shortage of such people after all. However, as the supply of copper coins increases, these people can be made unprofitable.”
Yun Zhao frowned and said, “Using copper to make coins is a malpractice after all. Although Ming’s monetary system is based on the gold standard, there is not much need to use precious copper to make coins. The imperial order will be used as a prisoner to quickly find cheap substitutes. , Using copper to make coins, the twelve-year batch will be the last batch.”
“Subordinates obey orders.”
“Xia Wanchun was still under the bayberry tree when you came in?”
“Yes, Xia Wanchun believes that as long as he keeps the bayberry mature, His Majesty will eventually agree to the suggestion to enter India and join General Han Xiufen in southern India.”
“What is his purpose for doing this?”
“Xia Wanchun thought that one station would break the courage of the enemy, destroy the chaotic India, and put an end to any possibility that this heroic India would become a unified country.”
“It’s still killing?”
“Yes, Your Majesty, when Xia Wanchun was playing chess with himself just now, he was vicious…”
