Nine idlers

Chapter 270 Seeking Stability and Change

This man named Li Yunlong is not too outstanding in appearance or temperament, and his clothes are the same as other Chinese in Nanyang, with a weird combination of East and West.It's just that after Xu Changqing looked at him carefully, he suddenly found that Li Yunlong was not an easy person.His face and fur are just physiognomy's little luck, that is to say, the limit of his career and wealth is at most the level of a rich man.However, his luck and appearance are completely different. It is for the nine lands to dive into the dragon, the emperor is destined, and the Tianshu is in charge of the main palace.In addition, there is a faint purple aura in the gestation of his heir's fate, which shows that some of this person's descendants will be high and powerful, and fulfill the life of a prince.

Xu Changqing was not the only one who noticed Li Yunlong's weird face, Guan Poming at the side also noticed the faint purple aura in Li Yunlong's heir palace.Among the miscellaneous studies that Guan Poming learned from Guo Sandao, there is also the study of observing qi and severing fate. Although he is not very proficient, he is far from being able to observe the subtleties and see through the universe, but he uses it to see Li Yunlong's facial aura But it is enough.

Just when Guan Poming wanted to ask about Li Yunlong's date of birth, so as to further infer the ins and outs of this purple aura, Xu Changqing interrupted it with a clear cough, and at the same time made him realize that this is not a question of this kind. Good place for questions.

Xu Changqing's clear cough not only stopped Guan Poming, but also made the noisy room return to its previous tranquility.After seeing that everyone was quiet, Xu Changqing turned his head to look at Li Yunlong, motioned him to sit down, and then answered his previous question: "It is true that as Mr. Li said, an army is useless, destroy all The aborigines are useless, as long as foreigners focus on Southeast Asia, then the Chinese will never have a bright future. But what if foreigners shift their attention to other places? Southeast Asia has become a piece of chicken rib in the eyes of foreigners? "

"How is this possible?" Everyone raised doubts, Feng Jiusheng also frowned, and reminded: "Sir, maybe I don't know how important Southeast Asia is in the eyes of foreigners. All the ships for business from east to west need to pass through the waters of Southeast Asia. , in order to communicate with each other, how can foreigners give up this important land?"

"Old benefactor, there is one thing that you may have made a mistake." Xu Changqing had expected that everyone would have doubts, so he smiled and explained: "The reason why foreigners attach importance to Southeast Asia is because it is a shipping hub. But the key point is only Malacca, not the whole of Southeast Asia. As long as the Chinese in Southeast Asia do not touch the bottom line of the foreigners in Malacca, then the resistance of foreigners to things like the establishment of a country by Chinese businessmen will be much less.”

"It seems to make sense." After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nodded, and began to discuss with each other in low voices.

Xu Changqing didn't speak immediately, but waited until the discussion became quieter before continuing: "Now there are constant disputes among European countries, the frictions and battles between Britain, France, Germany, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire are increasing day by day, and the surrounding countries, large and small, are also Gradually getting involved in it, the whole of Europe can be said to be covered with clouds of war, and it can be said that it is about to break out. From the perspective of its general fortune, there will be an earth-shattering war in Europe within five years, and then it will be the best time for Chinese businessmen to establish a country in Southeast Asia."

"What? A war will break out in Europe?" Everyone was involuntarily surprised when they heard this, and then they showed doubts, apparently not believing Xu Changqing's words.

Xu Changqing had no intention of explaining, and continued: "Before the European war, what you need to do is to gather all the Chinese in Southeast Asia, save and hide their strength. According to the method I said before, use the struggle with the indigenous people, While gradually mastering the real power of some islands and cities, it is also training the Chinese army. When the European War begins, India and Annan can be provoked to rebel, and all the combined forces of Britain and France in Asia will be attracted to these two places, and then Quickly wipe out all the natives of the surrounding islands with the momentum of thunder, and completely control the Southeast Asian islands. At this time, we will show our favor to Britain and France, establish a governing body similar to the British parliamentary system, and express our willingness to manage some Southeast Asian countries on behalf of Britain and France. The islands they value. As long as this step is achieved, even if you don’t want to establish a country, Britain and France will do their best to facilitate this.”

"What about the United States?" Li Yunlong stood up again, pointing to the United States that controls part of the Philippines, and said, "Will the United States be willing to let us establish a country under their noses?"

Xu Changqing nodded and said: "Of course they won't want to, but when the European war starts, their attention will be more focused on Europe. After all, the vast majority of immigrants in the United States are from Europe, and they will never let this one go. An opportunity to 'intervene' in European affairs. As for you, you only need to continue to deepen your relationship with the American political and business circles in these years, and hint that they will establish a regime that favors them. It may become a boost, after all, they have been coveting the trade in Southeast Asia for a long time, but it has been occupied by Britain and France, and they can't get in."

"What a combination of horizontal and vertical! Sir, I want us to be like Qin, making friends from afar and attacking close to each other, and taking advantage of the contradictions between the great powers to gradually grow." An old man sitting next to Feng Jiusheng touched his beard and nodded, obviously Already attracted by Xu Changqing's big plan, after thinking for a while, he looked up at Xu Changqing, stood up and clasped his fists, and saluted: "This old man is Lin Yuan, the 'chairman' of the board of directors of Shengjing Trading Company in Singapore, dare to ask Mr. A big war is about to break out, is there any basis?"

"He is the outer hall elder of the Yaozhan Lin family." Just as the old man stood up, Guan Poming at the side used the secret technique of sound transmission to tell Xu Changqing another identity of the old man.

After hearing this, Xu Changqing had a trace of doubt on his face, because he couldn't feel any spirit of cultivation from the old man. If the old man's cultivation base had not reached the point of becoming a saint, then the old man would not know anything at all. Practice Dharma.

Perhaps sensing Xu Changqing's question, Lin Yuan explained again: "Although this old man comes from the Lin family, he doesn't know anything about the Lin family's unique knowledge. He is just a common man."

Xu Changqing smiled lightly and said: "Since the old man is a secular person, how should I explain to the old man how I knew there would be a war in Europe? You know that summer insects can't say anything, even if I say it, how can you listen to it?" I understand. As for the basis of what you said, you can read more of those Western newspapers, and you can naturally find some clues from them. My general plan for the founding of the country has been stated. As for whether you want to follow it or not, it depends on whether you have the courage. Already!"
