Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

It took the old shopkeeper of the Hidden Dragon Plan a long time to understand the gist of it, which meant that Xiao Letian had given up any hope of becoming emperor.

These sacrifices were in exchange for the invisible throne of the financial empire. Xiao Letian held a certain share of the shares in any consortium in the 33 Merchant Union.

In other words, Xiao Letian would never snatch the management rights of these people, but at the same time, he would never have too little ownership. For example, if it was below 10%, then he would lose his influence due to having too little ownership.

The average shares held were around 15-20%. Although a single consortium might not have a lot of shares, Xiao Letian's power would be unimaginably strong when he owned a certain percentage of shares in each consortium.

As Xiao Letian himself, he did not have to be afraid. The 33 Merchant Unions basically relied on him to raise their own family, and even their so-called family and life was given to them by Xiao Letian, let alone this bit of control over them.

As long as no major changes occurred, these consortia would never dare to rebel against Xiao Letian's control. 's descendants did not have to worry too much, this kind of complicated ownership structure had already given them an opportunity to deal with everything. Unless you had truly provoked the wrath of the masses, under this kind of balance, anyone who wanted to challenge the rule of the Shaw's's family would definitely be met with a strong counterattack.

The 33 Merchant Union was controlled by the Shaw's Empire, and that was to control the biggest corporate oligarch of the Chinese race, the Oligarchy.

Not only that, through the 33 Merchant Union's disguise, they controlled the central bank management committee, which meant they controlled the issuance of Chinese currency. Whether the entire Chinese economy went into inflation or deflation, that was entirely up to these people.

As the creator of the Chinese financial order, Xiao Letian had the most votes on this management committee. This added another layer of insurance, making the financial empire of the Shaw's even more stable.

By controlling the right to issue money and the banking system, one could indirectly control the fate of the entire country. Even the economies affected by the Chinese people would be under the control of this mysterious consortium.

The most important thing was that all of this was hidden in the dark of history. Outsiders simply had no idea how this worked.

All news media were not entitled to any information in the system, and all university professors and independent scholars were unable to access historical data.

No one knew who this invisible monarch was!

The Chinese compulsory education textbooks also did not mention a single word. There were even a group of people who deliberately induced the public to think so that they could deny the existence of this group.

It was a legend, a legend that mortals could not understand.

Perhaps one day, many of the prospectors will try their best to uncover the truth of history, and try to lift the dark lid to see what kind of demons are inside.

However, if that day really did come, this demon would definitely not show the slightest mercy. It would ruthlessly suppress all of the aggressors, but that would definitely be a very, very distant matter.

Just understanding this plan took two to three months, and then he started to calculate the pros and cons for a month, and finally reluctantly agreed to Young Master's plan.

In fact, old shopkeeper had rejected him at the beginning, but Xiao Letian had persuaded him, "Descendants will have their own sons and grandsons. I also hope that our descendants can become stronger with each passing generation, but this will always be a kind of delusion …"

"As the saying goes, one cannot be rich past three generations. This is reasonable. No one can guarantee that they will produce an outstanding child. What if they are handicapped and have a mental illness? "There are a lot of children who are born with mental retardation, and there are even some who are difficult to have children with. Just having a son makes it difficult for you to choose a successor …"

"This is definitely a high-probability event, we have to prepare for it no matter what! "Even if it's as you've thought, we won't have a child born like that, but the path of government isn't something that an ordinary person can walk. He isn't suitable for everyone …"

"Perhaps your grandson was born an artist, a writer, a scientist? What if he doesn't want to go to politics? "At that time, we'll have to find a way for him to escape …"

"The Hidden Dragon Project is a long-term family plan that can be used to attack and retreat. If this generation doesn't have a political genius, then we can just hide. Anyway, through the Hidden Dragon Project, we can also have endless wealth, so it's not a problem for them to live a wealthy life!"

"If there is such an outstanding political genius, with our hidden dragon program's huge funds and connections, we can easily push him to become a prime minister. Isn't it good if we rely on him to become a real prime minister?"

"Advance can attack, retreat can defend, benefit from both sides, and be adept at ease!" At the very least, your grandchildren will be safe! "There's no need to be anxious. There will always be people who want to overthrow their mountains and rivers. There's no need to be careful of the changes in the Wildhearts, and there's also the endless pursuit of assassins …"

"Old Mount Tai!" Do you really want your grandchildren to live like that? A gentleman has to be pragmatic and not humble! What's the use of having the Emperor's false name? Isn't it good to be the invisible emperor? "

Fan Lian was afraid of Young Master's eloquence. He could really talk about the living, clearly giving up the throne of the Emperor, such a huge loss, for Young Master to say that it was a great fortune that would only happen once in a hundred lifetimes! Could it be that he was not the emperor and had taken advantage of the situation?

Forget it, don't be conceited. Since Young Master has such a plan, let's give it a push while I'm still so old! Then, the Hidden Dragon Plan began to slowly move forward in the hands of the old shopkeeper.

Afterwards, Bug Liu gave Bug Liu a name and became a part of this plan. It was only when the Far Eastern War ended did the Hidden Dragon Plan finally meet the thirty-three God of Wealth in front of them.

Of course, old shopkeeper and Liu Chouchu could not say everything that Xiao Letian had said so clearly, and even if they did not reveal any private things, just exposing their plans would be enough for them to take a bite out of it.

The third floor of Dragon and Phoenix Restaurant was a complete mess. old shopkeeper's bodyguards had blocked the stairs with their guns, so not even a fly could fly in.

Looking at the merchants in the building, some of them were silent, some were pouring wine, some were whispering to each other, and some were scratching their heads in excitement.

The plan was too big, it was impossible to digest and absorb in a short period of time. Only Keeper Niu, with the help of the fat white mutton bribe, received the prompt, which was to say, he didn't even need to think about it anymore.

Boss Mi was not willing to be outdone by the second person, who had unconditionally accepted the Prime Minister's plan. Soon after, the smartest merchants in the entire group gradually understood the gist of the plan, and soon, sounds of surrender rose up one after another.

Perhaps they still did not understand too many things, but they had already figured out the gist of it. In fact, they had to participate in the Hidden Dragon Plan, even if they had to take into account the authority of the Central Bank to forge coins.
