Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 32: Changes

"Wouldn't that just give the empire a chance, wouldn't the empire just take back Black Mountain and Longquan?" Situ Mingda became interested when he heard this, but there are infinite business opportunities in all these places where all forces have been wiped out , although he has never been involved in political affairs, he is a born businessman. As a member of the royal family, he has never taken this royal status too seriously. In his eyes, all false names are not worth the benefits of real benefits. Therefore, in addition to being in charge of organizing the books and documents of the Tianhua Palace of the Empire, he put all his energy on developing his own private industry, which also won him considerable support in the court. People are welcome everywhere, especially when he is still a member of the royal family.

"Your Highness, there are disaster victims everywhere in Heishan and Longquan, and they have nothing. Most of the refugees flocking to the imperial capital are from these two places. Do you still think there is anything worth paying attention to there?" My old friend, the thin old man didn't know what the other party was thinking, so he shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Zhiqiu, you don't understand this business matter. Although Longquan Heishan seems to have nothing now, will it always have nothing? Once the famine is over, the victims will go back, and those original landlords and gentry Most of them were wiped out by the Taiping Rebels, and then by the Kaman people. I’m afraid there are not two left? I don’t know how much unowned land there is. Who can spend some small money on it first, and then go to the government to manage it? After filing and filing, the land is considered to be owned. With the land, the victims will return to their hometowns. The land of Heshuo is not barren. With a little tidying up, won’t the fertile land come out? Zhiqiu, If you are interested, why don't we partner up and go to Haosheng to make plans and make a lot of money for him." Situ Mingda can only be so frank in front of his old friend, if Heishan Longquan is really going to be taken back by the empire , if you can take the lead and seize the land, it is indeed a good opportunity to make a lot of money.

He Zhiqiu was a little moved when he heard what the other party said. Although this old friend of mine is a prince, no matter what the situation he was in, whether he was a minister of military affairs or a person waiting for a crime, he had never had a relationship with him. After all, although he has been an important minister of the empire for a long time, he has never helped the other party's business. He also knows that his old friend is obsessed with business and wealth. Although he doesn't take his fanaticism seriously, everyone has Everyone's lifestyle, everyone has their own pursuit of freedom, he can't say much, but seeing that the other party is still tirelessly pursuing wealth and business under such circumstances, he can't help but want to remind the other party.

"Your Highness, you now have a huge family fortune. Even the five major families of the empire may not be much better than you. You are also so old, why bother to seek anything?"

"Hehe, Zhiqiu, this means that you look at other people's thoughts from your own point of view. In this life, you have to pursue something, no matter whether you want to be an official in politics, do business for profit, or study and study. Well, you must have a goal, right? Even if you become an emperor, there are always good and bad points. I am afraid that any emperor wants to make his name go down in history as the master of ZTE that the younger generation admires? I was born in the royal family all my life, but I have no That blessing, I have no other pursuits, I just want to make achievements in business and wealth. The five major families of the empire have also accumulated for generations. I, Situ Mingda, also want to try my life to see what my business can do. level." Situ Mingda smiled proudly, and gently turned a jade wrench on his left finger with his right finger.

Nodding silently, the thin old man stopped talking, but lowered his head as if thinking about something, but the uncertain look on his face fell into the eyes of the somewhat excited middle-aged man.

"Old He, do you seem to have something on your mind? Now that you are no longer in the position of Minister of Military Affairs, why are you thinking so much? I'm serious. Let's arrange for people to go to the Black Mountain Longquan activity first , as soon as the Kamanians retreat, we will attack immediately, and I will also remind His Majesty here so that he can prepare early." Situ Mingda seems to have made up his mind to play in Heishan and Longquan One vote away.

Shaking his head slowly, he seemed to want to say something, but he seemed to have some concerns. The vacillating eyes of the thin old man made Situ Mingda even more aware of the problem.

"Zhiqiu, you and I have known each other for decades, just say what you have to say, don't tell me you still can't trust me, Situ Mingda?" With his eyes burning on the old man's face, Situ Mingda wondered what the embarrassment was. Things that make it difficult for the other party to open their mouths.

Sighing heavily, the old man seemed to have made some decision and said: "Your Highness, you and I have known each other for decades, and I don't know Qiu's temper. I don't want to say anything secretive. , I don't want to say anything polite. It's not impossible for His Highness to go to the Heishan Longquan to occupy the land, but His Highness needs to see the current situation clearly. With His Majesty's current power, Heishan Longquan can be controlled, even if Heishan Longquan can be controlled. How long has it been occupied? Has Your Highness thought about it, whether you are in politics or doing business to make money, you first need to see the situation clearly, don't spend a lot of energy and money, and waste some energy, and you will end up with nothing in the end."

"Hehe, Zhiqiu was worried about this, so it doesn't matter, no matter if the ninth, the eldest, or the sixth is the emperor, I, Situ Mingda, don't care, and they won't have any trouble with me. If It’s true that the Kaman people recaptured Longquan in Montenegro, and I have nothing to say. In business, there are losses and gains, and this risk must be taken.” Situ Mingda laughed.

"Your Highness, I'm not just referring to the matter of Black Mountain Longquan." He Zhiqiu found that the other party didn't hear what he meant, so he couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly, but the conversation had already begun, and he didn't want to hide it, so he simply challenged it. Ming: "Your Highness, this day is going to change, you have to see the situation clearly."

Finally understanding the meaning of the other party's words, Situ Mingda subconsciously glanced at the other party, his face changed slightly: "Zhiqiu, what do you mean by this? Could it be that the Kamanians made some big moves or were the Maqihans?" ••••••?"

"No, Your Highness, although the Kaman people are very prosperous now, this is probably their peak, and the old man judges that they probably won't be prosperous for a few years. But if you really want to take over the Central Plains, I’m afraid it’s not too late.” He Zhiqiu’s face was serious, “Didn’t your Highness see that the entire western part of the empire is now under the sphere of influence of His Highness King Qin, and the land of Heshuo, if His Highness King Qin If you want to hold it in your hands, I'm afraid His Majesty will have to back away."

"Zhiqiu, are you referring to the two places of Heishan and Longquan, or do you have other meanings?" Situ Mingda asked word by word. He always believed in the vision of his old friend. His career as a minister allowed him to see the situation inside and outside the empire more clearly than anyone else in the court. If he said something, there must be a reason for it.

"Hey, what's the difference? Whether it's Black Mountain, Longquan, or something else, His Highness can see it clearly after a little thought, but now everyone is deliberately avoiding this question, and it's not like no one in the court can't see this One point, it’s just that in the current situation, even the food needs to be donated by others, so what can I do?” He Zhiqiu looked at the lake in the distance, and said flatly, “Maybe the Situ family has been on the stage of history for four hundred years. It's time to end the curtain, if His Highness really wants to make a difference in business, surpassing the five major families, maybe now is an opportunity."

He Zhiqiu's words of treason and injustice enough to punish the nine clans are so plain and natural, but in Situ Mingda's ears, it's like a thunderbolt piercing through his ears, and even his face changes several times~IndoMTL.com ~ The final freeze is pale.

"Zhiqiu, are you saying that the foundation of our Situ family will fall into the hands of Li Wufeng? Isn't it too early for you to make an assertion?" Subconsciously retorted, even though Situ Mingda was detached from the government, he was still Situ Yi after all. It is always difficult to accept this appalling conclusion.

"Even if I'm alarmist, if Your Highness can listen to it, just listen to it. If you think it's nonsense, just pretend I didn't say it." It is too early to replace the Situ family. At least Li Wufeng is not targeting the interior of the empire now, but is blindly fighting everywhere. But it is precisely these actions that make He Zhiqiu believe that the other party will eventually target the central plains of the empire. Once Li Wufeng completes His great cause of conquest, and his prestige in the empire has reached an unprecedented level, while the few incompetent princes of the Situ family are still fighting endlessly for half of the country. When the time is right, literati and warlocks who will cheer for Li Wufeng will naturally jump out. Different views will be shrouded in Li Wufeng's head, I'm afraid that even if Li Wufeng doesn't want to sit in that position, he can't help him.

Both of them fell silent for a while. He Zhiqiu expressed his feelings, but after he spoke, he regretted that he was talking too much and messing around, but Situ Mingda was shocked by the other party's deafening remarks. Time can't come back to God, you need to carefully consider and savor it, the sky changes, the sky changes, the four hundred years of the Situ Dynasty, could it be said that it will be overthrown? This point Situ Mingda has always been difficult to accept, but his old friend never speaks falsely. Looking back on the chaos and chaos of the empire over the years, the foundation has been rotted, and it is not known that the other party will say a word. Then should I also plan ahead and prepare for the rainy day like my old friend said?
