Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 680 Let Sun Chuanting Go Home
"What you said is very reasonable. Once people get used to making quick money, they can no longer settle down to work normally." Zhao Wen stood in front of Liu Wenzhong and kept nodding.

"But, have you ever thought about a question?" Zhao Wen turned around and looked at Liu Wenzhong.

"Have you ever wondered why this land has never changed from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the present?"

"What does Your Majesty mean by this? I don't understand!" Liu Wenzhong didn't know what Zhao Wen said about this piece of land that has never changed.

"The way of life, the way of production. From the Qin and Han Dynasties to the present, the people on this land have always worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. They have been farming in the fields day after day. Since then, there has been no changed.

Moreover, even if they worked so hard, they hardly had a few full meals.Most people in this land, from birth to grave, have never left their hometown.Many people spend their entire lives in poverty and work hard, hoping that hard work can make their lives better.

But what was the result?Are they doing well?The people are too close to death, so close that there is only one flood or one drought.

The people have never been really rich since the Qin and Han Dynasties. They have always been poor. I want the people to live better.Even if we continue to wage wars for this, as long as the people can live better. " Zhao Wen said.

"Your Majesty's idea is certainly good, but if you really turn war into a business, then sooner or later you will be backlashed by this business.

Moreover, the people work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and the family is happy and prosperous, isn't it just right? "Liu Wenzhong asked back.

Zhao Wendao: "War is a double-edged sword. The key is to see who uses this double-edged sword. If this double-edged sword can be used well, it will bring huge benefits. This benefit is so huge that it can change the entire world. The world. If it is not used properly, it will drag the world into the abyss.

However, we can't give up eating because of choking. At present, the world needs war, and I need the value generated by war to transform the whole world.It is impossible to complete the transformation of the world by relying on domestic strength alone, and must rely on external forces. "

The power needed to promote the development of society is huge, let alone promote the current Ming Dynasty?

If only relying on domestic strength, Zhao Wen may not be able to realize his ideals in his entire life, so he must fight abroad.

Didn’t the country where the industrial revolution started completed its social transformation precisely because of the continuous war?
This piece of land is much larger than that country, and the population is several times larger.It took a hundred years for that country to complete the transformation, let alone China now.

"Okay, let's stop here today, don't say any more. I understand what you said, but I can't give up sending troops overseas just yet." Zhao Wen waved his hand and said calmly.

"By the way, hasn't Sun Chuanting surrendered to the new dynasty?" Zhao Wen suddenly thought of Sun Chuanting whom he hadn't heard from for a long time.

Since Sun Chuanting was captured by Zhao Wen, he was brought to Xuanzhen by Zhao Wen.Although he was still held in a big prison, Sun Chuanting's cell was much better. Both the environment and the food were very good.

Sun Chuanting is a capable person, so Zhao Wen wanted to persuade him to surrender and let him be used by himself.

However, Sun Chuanting has nothing but tough bones, and he is unwilling to surrender to Zhao Wen no matter what.

Even if Zhao Wen brought before him the evidence that Chongzhen said that he had absconded on the battlefield, he did not surrender to Zhao Wen.

It's just that his loyalty to Chongzhen was shaken, and he didn't surrender to Zhao Wen for this reason.

"Your Majesty, not yet. Sun Chuanting is unwilling to submit to the new dynasty no matter what he says. At the beginning, Sun Chuanting cursed every time he saw someone sent by the minister.

Although I don't scold so much now, I still haven't let up. "Liu Wenzhong shook his head, embarrassed.

"Did Sun Chuanting's family take over from the capital?" Zhao Wen asked again.

After capturing Sun Chuanting, Zhao Wen asked spies all over the capital to bring Sun Chuanting's family back.

It's just that as soon as things were arranged, Zhao Wen started to deal with the war against Huguang and Shandong, and didn't pay too much attention to this matter.

Liu Wenzhong said: "Your Majesty, I have brought them back a long time ago, and even let them meet. However, even so, Sun Chuanting did not submit. The minister asked him to be demoted by the court before and persuaded him, but he just refused to listen. , not submitting."

When Liu Wenzhong mentioned Sun Chuanting, he got a headache. This is the hardest court official he has seen so far.

Zhao Wen frowned, and said slowly: "In that case, let him go and let him go back to his hometown."

For Sun Chuanting, Zhao Wen still has some respect in his heart.

Therefore, in dealing with Sun Chuanting's matter, Zhao Wen did not send them to Japan or Java like other officials who surrendered.

"Your Majesty, just let it go like this? Sun Chuanting is not comparable to others. This man has the ability to lead the army. What should he do if he returns to his hometown to confuse the local people and fight against the new dynasty?" Liu Wenzhong With wide eyes, he looked at Zhao Wen with disbelief.

Zhao Wen shook his head, "Fight against the new dynasty? Impossible, even if he has the heart, he can't recruit enough soldiers and horses. What's more, now that the world is almost settled, are you still afraid of Sun Chuanting? Just do as I say! "

"Obey!" Liu Wenzhong stood up, bowed in salute, and then retreated.

Early the next morning, the prison in the west of Xuanzhen City opened its doors.

The large prison in the west of Xuanzhen Town is not very large, and it is mainly used to detain criminals with relatively high status.

Sun Chuanting wore a very simple padded jacket and walked out of the prison gate.

As soon as he walked out of the gate, the door behind him creaked shut.

Sun Chuanting let out a long breath, with a sad face.

"Da Ming!!!" Sun Chengzong shook his head, then walked forward without looking back.

After walking a few steps, Sun Chuanting saw several familiar figures.

"Father!" came a familiar voice.

Sun Chuanting looked up and saw his son Sun Shirui, his wife and several familiar servants standing on the side of the street, looking towards him.

The corners of Sun Chuanting's eyes were moist. He took two quick steps and held Sun Shirui and his wife in his arms.

"Husband, you have suffered!" Sun Chuanting's wife, Mrs. Zhang, hugged Sun Chuanting and cried bitterly.

After a long time, Sun Chuanting let go of the two, "How are you doing recently?"

"Father is suffering, and the baby and mother are doing well recently!" Sun Shirui nodded, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Okay, that's good, that's good. Let's go home!" After Sun Chuanting said, he held their hands and walked forward.

At this moment, several strong men appeared in front of Sun Chuanting.

Sun Chuanting stepped forward, blocked the two of them behind him, and glared at the front, "What? Does Zhao thief want to kill us? We are here now, come on!"

"Misunderstood, Mr. Sun misunderstood!" The leading man hurriedly put on a smile. "We are following His Majesty's will to escort Mr. Sun home!"

"Hmph, the old man will go back, go back and tell Bandit Zhao that the old man does not accept his favor!" Sun Chuanting scolded.

"Mr. Sun, Your Majesty has no malicious intentions. Your Majesty just asked us to escort Mr. Sun to the train station in Xuanzhen, and send Mr. Sun to the train station to Daizhou City." The leading man hurriedly said.

"Hmph, I don't take his train, even if I walk back on foot, I won't take his train." Sun Chuanting didn't appreciate it at all.

The leading man said: "Mr. Sun, don't, if you really go back, we will be in trouble."

"What does your misfortune have to do with this old man?" Sun Chuanting glared at them, and then led his son and wife away in big strides.

Looking at Sun Chuanting who left, a man asked, "What should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Go directly to the train station and buy a train ticket for Sun Chuanting in advance. Seriously, why is this person so stubborn? Which of the officials who surrendered to us can be treated like him? I really can't figure it out!" The leader The man shook his head and headed for the train station with his entourage.

Sun Chuanting said that walking back was just an angry remark. If he really walked back, it would be a hundred and eight thousand miles, and he didn't know that he would go to the year of the monkey just by relying on them.

Before Sun Chuanting left the cell, the steward in the cell packed the necessary luggage for Sun Chuanting according to Zhao Wen's instructions, and also stuffed some silver dollars inside, but Sun Chuanting didn't take it at all.

"Father, go back to your residence first, and bring your luggage." Sun Shirui looked at his father and said.

Sun Chuanting stopped and frowned, "They all belong to Thief Zhao, what are you doing with them?"

"Father, no, these are all brought back from the capital, and many things are at home. When I went out today, I had already packed these things, but because there were too many, I didn't bring them with me." Sun Shirui replied .

"Oh, at home. Now that the imperial court is gone, where is there a home?" Sun Chuanting looked melancholy.

"Husband, when I was in the capital, when the news of your defeat and death came, I didn't know what to do.

Not long after this news came, His Majesty said that you were defeated and feigned death, and absconded and disappeared.Not only did they fail to consider your merits, but they also punished you for your crimes.They even sent Jin Yiwei to arrest us and put us in imperial prison.

At that time, almost all the servants in the mansion were scared away by the news, only us orphans, widows and a few loyal servants remained. "

When Sun Chuanting's wife, Mrs. Zhang, recalled her days in the capital, she felt terrified for a while.

"Just before Jin Yiwei arrested us, Xuanzhen's spies in the capital came to the door. They said, you are still alive, and they were sent by you. I didn't think about it, so I followed them. I found out later that They are Xuanzhen's spies."

Sun Chuanting said: "What are you doing with these words? This is already in the past tense!"

To be honest, Chongzhen's actions really chilled Sun Chuanting, and it was still the kind of chilling.

But Sun Chuanting was a man of integrity after all, even though Chongzhen treated him like this, he still did not choose to submit to Zhao Wen.

To some extent, Sun Chuanting is worthy of Chongzhen.

Whether in history or now, Sun Chuanting is worthy of Chongzhen.On the contrary, Chongzhen was sorry for Sun Chuanting.

"Okay, don't say these words, hurry up and go home with your luggage!" Sun Chuanting said, and walked forward quietly.

Along the way, Sun Chuanting was sullen, not knowing what he was thinking.

When he got the luggage and walked out of the residence, Sun Shirui asked, "Father, are we really going back to Daizhou City?"

"Xuanzhen has a train that travels thousands of miles a day. When I was brought to Xuanzhen by Zhao thief, although I took it, I didn't feel it well at that time.

Now I want to feel it carefully, what is the difference between Zhao thief's train, and why it can travel thousands of miles a day. "

When Sun Chuanting was brought back to Xuanzhen by Zhao Wen, he came by train.

At that time, Sun Chuanting was captured by Zhao Wen. Due to various reasons, Sun Chuanting's mind was not on the train at all, and he was in a daze. He hadn't experienced the train well, so he wanted to experience it again this time.

After Sun Chuanting finished speaking, he led several people forward.

Sun Chuanting got off from Xuanzhen Railway Station, so he also remembered where Xuanzhen Railway Station was.

Sun Chuanting was walking on the way to Xuanzhen Railway Station, looking at the bicycles and tricycles coming and going on the street, and the people who always had a smile on their faces. .

Not long after, Sun Chuanting came to the train station.

At the gate of the train station, there are specific procedures for taking the train and the layout of the train station. After seeing these things, Sun Chuanting walked into the train station.

As soon as he walked into the waiting hall of the train station, he saw the men who blocked the way just now.

"Mr. Sun, I've already bought your train ticket for you. Here is your train ticket!" The leading man greeted him with a smile, holding a few train tickets in his hand.

Regarding these men, Sun Chuanting chose to ignore them and went directly to the ticket window.

The leading man looked at Sun Chuanting who was acting like this, and kept smiling wryly. "You have chosen to take the train, why are you insisting on it? Really, I really don't know what is going on in your mind?"

The train ticket to Daizhou City was not expensive, and Sun Chuanting's wife also had some money in the bottom of the box. When she was brought to Xuanzhen, she took it with her, so Sun Chuanting can afford the train ticket now.

After buying the tickets, I took my family to the waiting room and started waiting for the bus.

During this period, those men did not come to bother Sun Chuanting.

After waiting for a long time, the staff in the train station shouted, "The train bound for Daizhou City is about to leave. Passengers bound for Daizhou City should get on the train quickly."

Sun Chuanting heard the voice and led his family to the place where the voice came from.

Under the guidance of various signs, Sun Chuanting came to the platform.
