Chapter 180 Debate
Era?

In AD, the year is now 1702.

In this world now, the Ming calendar is the standard, and even the calendar uses the revised lunar calendar, so there will be no children wondering why it is wrong that the peach blossoms in the mountain temples are beginning to bloom after the end of April in the world. The name Xiyuan is very rare .

"Sir, here is a book."

Shen Yu came to the signing office and said politely.

"Ok."

The old man who signed the book, with blond hair and blue eyes, politely took out a book and signed his name on it.

"Although this book is good, it's a pity that it's too pessimistic. It's sitting on the side of the Westerners and trying every means to weaken Ming Dynasty and our civilization. It must be read critically."

The young man who argued with the old professor just now said so.

"Uh-huh."

Shen Yu nodded and began to read the book.

The book is interesting and tells an alternate history.

Chinese civilization, after the Han Dynasty, the first empire was over, classicism completely withdrew from the stage, and began to decline. Although there was a rise in the Tang Dynasty, it still did not find a way out, and what this scholar wrote is another possibility. Ming Dynasty did not have Zheng He to go to Europe, nor did Mitutoyo sweep the world. Instead, after the involution, it declined step by step and closed itself to the outside world. It was not until more than 300 years later that it was defeated by the re-emerging Mongolia in the north and had to retreat to the south. , and the Hu people in the north confronted each other, maintaining the situation of the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

"It's impossible. Da Ming will never be so miserable, and even if it were to happen, there must be new heroes coming out to change the world."

The young people shouted angrily, and the nearby book buyers didn't come over either. The signing booth was deserted, and the number of people seemed like politicians from a certain country who were friendly to China.

"You're right, stop arguing and eat."

Shen Yu beckoned and motioned to the shop owner to order a luxury snack set and let everyone eat something here.

In this day and age, people who dare to write like this are a bit like those who could say no to writing about Japan back then, they are still very brave...

Because of the confrontation with the Hu people and the weak national power, the civilization of the East has stagnated. On the contrary, the small countries in the West have attacked each other and tossed each other. Instead, they have bloomed a brilliant civilization. Those people, like the Ming people, began to move overseas. develop……

"So, this is completely wrong. If the north and the south confront each other in Ming Dynasty, it will definitely develop overseas. Based on the population, etc., it will definitely expand rapidly instead of being restrained."

The gift pack of luxurious snacks was delivered, the young man was a little embarrassed, but at the invitation of Shen Yu, he sat at the table, and the old professor was not polite, and tasted delicious food together.

Anyway, there was no one at the signing meeting.

"Well, you're right about that."

Shen Yu nodded, but didn't say much, but continued to read the book with relish.

"Actually, I wanted to set it up a little more aggressively."

The old professor looks to be in his fifties, his hair is a little gray, his face is full of wrinkles, but his spirit is very good.

Maybe outsiders see him as old and weak, but Shen Yu can feel that his spirit is burning like a torch, extremely strong and solidified.

This is also one of the benefits obtained after practicing Xuanwu Ding.

Such an old man is rare.

After taking a sip of Tianfu Cola's deadly rival, Dunhuang Cola, the old professor sighed, "I want to set the Ming Dynasty to decline, and the barbarians in the north to rise again, conquer the Ming Dynasty, and then close the country, rule more people with a few people, and finally lead to Eastern civilization is declining step by step, while Western civilization is taking advantage of this opportunity to rise."

"how can that be possible?"

"How is it impossible? Look at the clan of Ming Dynasty. If there is no reform, there will be millions of people after nine generations. In the end, it will be everywhere. There will also be financial bankruptcy, the Little Ice Age, etc. When these are added together, if it is a feudal country , within 300 years.

To be honest, it is a miracle that Ming Dynasty is now like this. Emperor Yongle 300 years ago changed everything, but it is a pity that Emperor Jianwen did not win at that time. "

"Then why not write it like this?"

"Because that's too outrageous, readers can't accept it, they must say I'm making it up."

"Yes, I know."

Shen Yu nodded. In fact, history is even more outrageous than the old professor's set. Who would have thought that a small force would capture the weakest moment of Daming and win the world like a child's play before the new hero got up?
By the way, which traverser reminded Emperor Yongle?
When Shen Yu just traveled over, he studied the history carefully, but couldn't find any trace of the traverser, including any poems, articles, etc., as if everything was just the emperor's change of mind, and then changed everything.

"It's a good thing you didn't write it like that. How could Daming end like that? To be honest, if I didn't like history, I wouldn't have read your book."

It was a young man who spoke, and his words made the old professor smile helplessly.

The old professor didn't argue much, but Shen Yu still spoke up.

"Your attitude is wrong. It's superficial, and academics need to be explored. I don't think there's anything wrong with Professor William. It's really meaningless to read too many flattering articles. I read a novel by a certain author Huoxen not long ago. He He also said that he would lead everyone to occupy the moon and plant the flag of Ming Dynasty on it...Professor William's book is very good, at least it provides another way of thinking, doesn't it?"

The professor's name was William, and he took a Ming Dynasty name called Gao Pei.

Shen Yu's words made the old professor and the young people laugh. His book is very unpopular, and those who can read it and come to debate with him are actually people they like.

"I am from the Chinese Department of Imperial University. I have written many papers, about civilization and the future, but... After these things are published, except for a very small number of professionals, other people are not interested at all, so I suddenly I came up with an idea, why not write an overhead article, such as the decline of Eastern civilization and the rise of Western civilization, and then various possibilities occurred in the middle, so that many people will see it and discuss it."

"Is there any point in that?"

The young man was a little unimpressed.

"It makes sense."

Shen Yu sighed, pointed to the tourists coming and going outside, and the prosperous market, and asked the young man: "Seeing this, what do you think of?"

"Very prosperous, very rich, very good..."

The young man thought for a while and said.

"Yes, the young people that Daming is currently employed have a monthly salary of nearly [-] yuan, which is enough for him to get married and have children.

And as long as you work for more than three years, the salary will increase, and one person can support a family of four. The wife is a housewife, and she can travel twice a year, buy a car, etc., and become a small leader or get promoted. This makes many foreigners try their best to smuggle to Daming. After all, the price of luxury hotels here is about 100 yuan, and their [-] yuan is equal to a month's income.

They would rather give up their high education and go to Daming to wash dishes and deliver food. "

Shen Yu's words filled the young man's face with pride.

Yes, how beautiful, how brilliant.

"The monthly income of 100 yuan is very difficult because there is no labor law protection, and you have to work overtime and so on. This year's Golden Orchid Award for Best Foreign Language Award is an example. The life of the plantation in South America Contrast with Da Mingling. In the eyes of those people, this is heaven."

Shen Yu continued, his voice full of sighs.

"In this way, it means that Ming Dynasty is prosperous..."

"Yes."

Shen Yu sighed, did not continue to explain, and continued to read the book written by the old professor.

In his book, Europe led civilization and became the leader of the world, and then [-] to [-] million Europeans became the masters of the world. They lived the same life as the people of Ming Dynasty now, but gradually they discovered that a large number of Low-end industries have been transferred out, and labor costs have risen even more.

Well, Shen Yu likes this kind of borrowing from the past to satirize the present, and making a positive statement.

Professor William raised a lot of questions, which are actually about the current Daming.

"The book is good, really good."

Shen Yu nodded. The old professor put a lot of thought into this book, especially the fiction about the world, which is even more admirable.

"It's not bad... Daming is so brilliant now, what you said is not a problem..."

The young man muttered, Shen Yu and the old professor just shook their heads, the old professor didn't want to argue with the young man, and Shen Yu...

What are you fighting for?Director Shen is a decent person.

"What do you think, sir?"

After Shen Yu came in, the old professor kept observing Shen Yu.

"Me? What kind of opinion can I have? But old man, you are right. The next step is the transfer of Ming's industries. A large number of low-end and mid-end industries will migrate to third-world countries. After all, there are too many manpower. It's cheaper, and Ming's labor laws and other things make those factories very uncomfortable, so it's not a bad thing to transfer the industry out."

"His Majesty the Emperor and the Parliament will not agree to this."

"Would you like to work in a factory as a worker or sit in an office as a white-collar worker? The former is seven or eight hundred yuan a month, while the latter is three or four thousand yuan a month or more. You don't want to. You expect those factory owners to be more enlightened than you ?”

"But, in this way, what about ordinary people's jobs in Daming?"

"Don't worry, it will be better in a short time, the salary is higher, you don't have to be tired, and the environment is better."

Shen Yu said with a smile.

At this moment, the door of the bookstore opened, and a group of people walked in. The leader was a man in his 50s, but with black hair. .

Well, this time the storm came and many, many flights were delayed.

When this person was still at the door, several bodyguards checked each floor one by one, and someone stood on the main road, looking around vigilantly.

"What a majesty!"

A young man curled his lips in disdain.

"Don't talk nonsense, that person is Lu Zhongfa from the Lion Fund."

Another young man said softly.

"what?"

The young man who spoke was stunned for a moment, and curled his lips even more contemptuously.

300 years ago, Sanfeng Zhenren and Emperor Yongle promoted the voyage plan and created a generation of great achievements. The imperial power of Ming Dynasty also developed accordingly. There is another hand, Capital!
As the core existence of capital, a series of industries such as ticket offices, banks, pawnshops, and escort agencies gradually formed a real modern banking industry, and with the development of Ming Dynasty, it became a huge and extremely terrifying monster.

Swords can kill, but capital can make people commit suicide happily!

Especially with your meager salary plus a loan!

In another time and space, there are still many twists and turns, such as the decline of the Netherlands, France, and the United Kingdom, and the competition between different camps, etc. Bank syndicates fight each other, and many rules have to be formed. In this world , The banking group has developed smoothly for 300 years!

This kind of smooth sailing refers to the fact that they took advantage of Daming's hegemony to absorb the most advanced, smartest and most powerful talents of Daming. In countless open and secret battles and bloody fights, they produced several giants in the banking industry, one of which was closely connected with the central bank of Daming Together super monsters!

At first, this monster could be tamed and suppressed, but after that, it became more and more out of control, because the monster merged into Da Ming!
One of the important reasons for the world war 20 years ago was the unprecedented super economic crisis that swept the world more than 30 years ago.

In that super economic crisis, countless families and businesses went bankrupt, and even many countries did the same. The currency depreciated tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of times, and the whole world was in a mess.

After that, have people learned their lesson?

No, on the contrary, what better and more interesting thing is harvesting leeks with financial means?
Daming is a country with a constitutional monarchy!

Many families in Ming Dynasty have been rich and prosperous for more than 300 years!

By what?farming?industry?
No, it's finance!
Emperor Yongle put forward the idea of ​​financial hegemony, which is deeply engraved in the hearts of many people.

And Lu Zhongfa's Lion Fund is an investment bank in the banking group of the Ming Empire, a knife that harvests leeks from all over the world, including the people of the country.

Two bodyguards are in front, Lu Zhongfa is walking behind, and on his left is a girl of fourteen or five years old, as delicate as a doll, with a beautiful smile on her face, but she is a bit short, um... Shen Yu has seen her photo before, she is Lu Zhongfa's 15-year-old daughter, the little guy known as a financial prodigy, she has contacted Shen Yu several times, wanting to play the heroine.

After Lu Zhongfa walked in, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, but Shen Yu just looked at it and continued to read the Western Yuan Chronicles.

"Huh? Professor William?"

Lu Zhongfa turned his head, saw Professor William who was signing books, nodded, and walked over politely.

"Still writing your broken book?"

His tone contained seven points of contempt and three points of sarcasm.

"This Senior William was my classmate back then. He was a person who came to Daming to study abroad. He has a very smart mind, especially good at thinking, and proposed many novel theories. It is a pity...he actually rejected my invitation."

Lu Zhongfa smiled at the woman beside him, "When I formed the team, I invited him to join in, but he refused, saying that he didn't want to make bloody money and that my money was dirty."

"Oh...you still have this temper."

William sighed, but said nothing more.

"How about this book?"

Lu Zhongfa did not look at the Year of the Western Yuan Dynasty, but turned his head to look at his daughter.

She reads very fast, almost flipping through the pages.

"It's okay, it's interesting, but it's only interesting, Professor William...you shouldn't study history."

She sighed, with regret in her eyes.

"If you don't stand on a high place, how can you overlook the scenery? You always feel that the top is not good, so you have to make up history, which is not good."

There was a trace of disdain at the corner of the girl's mouth. Professor William thought about it, but did not refute.

"Okay, let's go."

Lu Zhongfa never looked at his alumni back then, and turned to go outside. Lu Xiangjun said hello and stayed.

"Sorry, my father is such a strong character, Professor William, I really like your work, really."

The 15-year-old girl's blood is not pure, her mother should be a foreigner, so she has light green eyes, and her hair is not pure black. She should be innocent and full of vigor. At this moment, Shen Yu saw it in her. Shadows on the road.

Serious, earnest, persistent, etc.

Well, that's right, a person who received elite education from a young age, can truly experience the magic of money at the age of seven or eight, and then gain results step by step. She is called a financial wizard, of course she is different from other young jk.

"Don't give me a high hat, tell me, what's your business?"

Professor William sighed, today's scene made him a little depressed.

"The Book of the Year of the Western Yuan is very good, but unfortunately there are not many people who know it. There are only three people in the autograph session, which makes me very disappointed. Everyone is a reader. I would like to ask the three of you, what are your comments on this book?"

The girl had a beautiful appearance, but she spoke like a big boss, sharp and without tricks, facing Shen Yu and the other three.

The two young men said a few words, nothing more than the setting was too fake, etc., digging into the details and saying that the old professor was no good, while Shen Yu continued to read the books.

Xuanwuding greatly increased his memory, and his reading speed was also very fast. While the girl was talking with the other two, Shen Yu finally finished reading the book.

"What do you think, sir?"

"The book is good, but Professor Gao is still too soft-hearted."

Shen Yu smiled and replied.

"Please say."

"Since it's set, let's set it a little harder. In the last years of Ming Dynasty, they fought with each other, and their vitality was exhausted. Then the barbarians invaded, Shenzhou land sank, and the barbarians learned the lessons of the Yuan Dynasty. Most of the top scholars in the Yuan Dynasty were of different races, but this time they did not fight for this, and they still had various means to suppress the world, and night fell.

After that, Europe fought each other and expanded abroad, and finally the industrial revolution broke out and colonized the world.

However, Europe succeeded in the war, but also lost in the war.

The wars have consumed the vitality of Europe, and also caused a lot of wealth and talents to flow to the American continent.

The American continent is a continent with all kinds of resources and no foreign enemies. Here, after 200 years of operation, there is a brand new new country that absorbs the essence of civilizations from various countries.

Then, this country became the most powerful country in the world, and at this time, they had a large number of warships, a safe territory, global bases, and infinite wealth. "

At this time, Shen Yu suddenly remembered the previous world.

Can he go back?
