Mystery makes me strong

Chapter 2763 A sudden turn of events
Wang Shan was overjoyed and roared to the sky.

"Hahaha, I succeeded!"

"Okay, I won!"

"I want to be not only the emperor of this island, but also the emperor of the whole world!"

Then the next moment, with a "pounce" of the knife, he looked at the person next to him in amazement.

Those are his assassins.

No, upon closer inspection, it is not that, but an orphan adopted by the assassin.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, this world will never need an emperor again!" the orphan said fiercely.

"What are you doing?" The assassin looked at his adopted child in horror, then looked at his master.

The master fell down with his eyes wide open, and fell down unwillingly.

"I, I actually died in such a mess..."

"I have overcome so many difficulties, but I died at the hands of someone I thought was loyal to me."

"Killing you is to rid the world of harm!" said the orphan righteously.

"Cheng Ming, what did you do?"

"You bastard, it was the master who saved you, it was me who saved you!" said the assassin angrily.

Pull out the knife and put it directly on the opponent's neck.

"You saved me, which is a small favor, but I killed an emperor for the sake of the whole world and for the justice of all mankind!" The orphan Cheng Ming took a deep breath and said stubbornly.

"You, you, who taught you these things?"

"I learned this from Nanren College. They gave us compulsory education and taught me what justice is."

"Forcing all the people in the world to support one person without any reason is the worst thing in the world! Killing and cruelty are not as evil as this!" Cheng Mingyi said righteously.

"What he said seems to make sense."

"Yes, father, why do you inexplicably pledge your loyalty to him?"

The assassin wanted to kill Cheng Ming, the orphan he adopted.

However, he found that he couldn't do it.

People have feelings.

Even if it's a dog, I wouldn't be willing to kill it after raising it for a long time.

Especially this assassin, he is quite old.

Unlike when he was young, he was not so decisive in killing.

And suddenly, he felt a shackle on his mind disappear.

He had no need to avenge Wang Shan.

Yes, Wang Shan has never given me anything, why should I be loyal to him?

Cheng Ming is usually very filial to me.

He still remembers that one time it was snowing heavily and he had a high fever.

His own son was too sleepy to be called out, so Cheng Ming desperately carried him to the clinic and contacted the doctor.

And what has Wang Shan given me?
Nothing was given.

He also asked me to abandon my family business and live on this deserted island. This is simply outrageous.

He then put down the knife and said to the child, "That's right, Cheng Ming, I shouldn't be loyal to him anymore."

"Let's all go back and take his body back to the New Ming Dynasty."

The crowd then cheered loudly.

"Yes, go back to New Daming."

"That's right, my land is going to be taken away."

"I have to go back soon. My company will go bankrupt without you."

……

When Wen Rensheng saw this, he was stunned.

Yes, even he did not expect it to unfold like this.

Okay, that's an exaggeration.

In fact, he had already thought about this possibility.

But the probability is too low.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

In another time and space, are there not enough enlightened people who assassinated those feudal ministers?

They would rather give up their noble birth and drag the corrupt people into destruction together.

Now, it is natural for this orphan, who has received new education and gained new insights from the southerners, to have the same awareness.

But there are few such people.

But then again, this was Wang Shan’s own choice.

He chose the kind of loyal and honest person.

And this kind of people are the easiest to become enlightened.

After receiving new-style education, they are absolutely unwilling to return to the old-style life.

Emperor, what is it?
With it, everyone will feel like there is a dark cloud hanging over their heads.

Because this thing is the only thing in peacetime that can legally deprive anyone of their life without any consequences.

Although in practice, this is impossible to accomplish.

But it has to be said that it can do this to a fairly large extent.

If you can’t kill the ministers, can you kill the eunuchs and servants?
There were many eunuchs and palace maids who were beaten to death because of a bad mood.

Later it was subject to various restrictions and even became a mascot.

In fact, he is no longer an "emperor".

However, the orphan only needed to look at Wang Shan's appearance to know that the other party wanted to be the "emperor" with real power.

Is this okay?

Naturally, he decisively killed the other person.

People in the south should be grateful to Cheng Ming.

It was Cheng Ming who prevented the world from being plunged into war again.

This is also a proof that a small person can change the big history.

"You have witnessed with your own eyes how the course of the long river of history was changed because of a grain of sand, and you have understood a little of the mystery of the long river of history."

"Your mystery level increases by 2000 points, to 20 points."

Not bad.

Wen Rensheng was very satisfied.

Look again at the system that has become lonely and helpless in the void.

He just wanted to laugh.

This thing is a life-changing thing for any time traveler.

However, for him who has already begun to master the mysteries of time and space, it is actually just a virtual tool.

He doesn't need this thing, and it doesn't provide any help.

However, it can be given as a reward to the orphan named Cheng Ming.

……

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully binding to the Emperor Counterattack System, and a novice gift package as a reward. ]

Cheng Ming was sitting on the boat.

He listened blankly to the voice in his head.

What is this?
Wait, could this be the system from the novel that someone occasionally passed on privately in Southern Academy?

He knew that this was a statement from some of the third generation of the Southern Clan.

I heard from some people that they often say words like "time travel, system, cultivation, golden finger" and so on that are difficult to understand.

He has also read some novels written by the third generation of Nan, and they all contain some elements of this novel.

He naturally didn't know that some time travelers were just tired of real life and started missing the online novels and games they played before.

So they asked people to customize novels for them...

A book costs 50,000 or 100,000 yuan, and there are many people who write it.

And don't worry about the eunuchs...

Of course, these were all copied privately.

He was fascinated by it.

Sometimes I feel like I’m the protagonist in a book.

Both parents died, and he started as an orphan. He was adopted by a mysterious force and waited to go down the mountain...

Now it’s time to go to sea.

And he has a golden finger, so he is definitely the protagonist.

All of a sudden, he went from being confused to excited.

But he still remembered the key points in the novel: Keep a low profile when you have the golden finger...

So he pretended nothing happened.

Then, the system began to infuse a series of information into my mind.

He got it.

This is a system that allows people to become emperors.

[I don’t want to be an emperor, I want to be a saint. ]

[……]The system is stagnant.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the Saint Counterattack System. The novice gift pack will be distributed first. ]

[1000-year lifespan, 1000 immortals, automatic resurrection after death, 24 hours interval required.]

"Okay, this way I can save more people." Cheng Ming was very happy.

Seeing this, Wen Rensheng was speechless.

Every overly generous gift package for beginners is the result of the blood and tears of the previous host.

……

Cheng Ming returned to the southern society.

He studies hard and makes progress.

At the same time, he relies on 1000 immortal warriors to travel around.

However, he found that the effect was not good in the New Ming Dynasty.

The New Ming Dynasty already had a complete order, and there was no need for him to disrupt it. So he fled to Ouzhou.

For some reason, the southerners did not attack Ouzhou.

Instead, they only occupy islands and land around the Pacific Ocean.

Turned the Pacific Ocean into an inner lake.

As for Europe, it is separated by several mountain ranges and deserts and does not interfere with each other.

This made him confused.

Wen Rensheng naturally understood that this was the result of a fierce debate among the southerners.

We need to leave another birthplace of civilization on the planet.

After all, theirs is a civilization that was forced to grow by time travelers, while Laoouzhou is a modern technological point that was born thanks to its terrain advantages and many other civilization advantages.

Because it is open on all sides and surrounded by the sea on three sides, shipping is well developed.

Agriculture is not good enough, and we need to expand outward to survive.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The king's power is not strong enough to suppress the various internal forces.

This laid the foundation for the emergence of science and technology.

After all, they will grow old and die.

There has to be a place to provide new grips, right?
So Cheng Ming went to Laoouzhou.

However, after some time, Cheng Ming became lazy.

……

I don’t know what’s going on with Cheng Ming recently.

He found that he was not as energetic as before.

I just don't have the energy to do anything.

He thought about it carefully and found the reason.

Because after he had the system, he wanted to do a lot of good things, but ended up making things more and more chaotic.

For example, he came to a place and saw a lot of chaos there.

So he sent his own people to go in and clean up the mess.

The result is that the more we help, the more chaos there is.

Even if we let the locals come themselves, things might get better.

After he went in and made some trouble, the locals became even more ignorant.

They wait and depend on others every day.

Instead of improving yourself.

Every day I just pray for the coming of the Son of God...

Only then did he realize that he still had a lot to learn.

Good things cannot be accomplished just by having good intentions.

It is not possible to accomplish great things with just a little theoretical knowledge.

So he went back to study.

But as he continued to study, he found that it was too difficult.

Those theories need to be put into practice.

You need to win people's hearts, be patient, and do it seriously.

We need to sort out the dirty and ugly human hearts.

You go to help them, but only a few of them are sensible and know how to be grateful.

Many of them are ungrateful.

Even regard your kindness as stupidity.

That's why he felt tired.

Similarly, he understood why the southerners had to wait so long before conquering the Ming Dynasty.

The purpose is to train enough grassroots personnel.

Otherwise, if you go and deal with those idiots yourself, it will make you exhausted and angry.

A lot of enthusiasm will be worn away.

For example, when he was helping someone, that person talked about all sorts of things for a long time.

Finally he understood: You raised me for nothing, so I will listen to you and say good things about you...

He just laughed.

He suddenly thought of something: How did he have the courage to kill the future "emperor" with just one knife?

He was really courageous back then.

Looking back now, that was truly the most glorious moment in his life.

Although he still has a thousand years to live.

He originally thought that was just the starting point of his career.

However, it now seems that he has reached the top.

From then on, it was all downhill for him.

He feels lazy now.

He now lives on the wealth earned by 1000 immortal men.

He still became the parasite he once looked down upon.

But what makes him better than a parasite is that he doesn't bully others.

Parasites not only want to suck your blood, they also want to bully you.

This is really unbearable.

You can spend money without doing anything, but you can't spend other people's money and bully them at the same time.

Cheng Ming was just being lazy like this.

And the whole world continues to move forward slowly.

300 years later.

It's already 1900.

A full 1566 years have passed since 340.

A conflict finally broke out between Laoouzhou and the New Ming Dynasty.

After Cheng Ming knew about this, he thought Lao Ouzhou was crazy.

How did they have the courage to go to war?

The cause of the conflict is also very simple.

Or is it the deep-rooted conflict between commercial markets.

The market of Xin Daming is very broad.

It has a huge market of more than 30 billion people.

But Lao Ouzhou could never get in.

The New Ming Dynasty only acquired the other party's new technology, but rarely opened up a large market.

Very high tariffs are imposed on industrial products from Europe.

Only literature and art, oil paintings, music, handicrafts, grain, and labor exports are exempt from tariffs or have low tariffs.

But everyone knows that this deformed trade will make Europe powerless.

The prosperity of industrial products is the real strength.

This made Lao Ouzhou very depressed.

However, the new products they had worked so hard to develop were easily imitated and learned by Xin Daming, relying on the large market.

The market of New Daming has 30 billion people.

And they all have quite high spending power.

Relying on advanced technology, the people in the south have absorbed more lessons, and with their vast territory, they have minimum living security and various insurances.

They made basic allocations in various places.

In terms of various tax designs, it is still relatively modern.

It can achieve the basic principle: high taxes should be imposed on those with high wealth.

Most importantly, the double-thru doors remain.

Although Zhang Ming died of old age.

But the double-thru doors did not disappear.

It continues to be passed down to the next generation.

However, only very few people know the secret of the double-through door.

Without Zhang Ming, people can no longer travel back and forth, but material things can still travel back and forth.

It is very simple for modern people to discover this double door.

Throw over a string of firecrackers.

After the explosion, the people on the other side discovered it.

Then the big forces came to the fore.

After a brief exchange of information with each other, the two sides began large-scale exchange of goods and knowledge.

The new Ming Dynasty mainly exports cultural and artistic items, handicrafts, luxury goods, precious wood, etc.

The main exports are high-value equipment, medicines, military weapons, etc.

It's mutually beneficial.

Modern industry requires a large population.

Ironically, however, modern industry itself will suppress population growth.

Any industrial country is caught in the vicious circle of stagnation in population reproduction.

This creates a contradiction between production and consumption.

In the end, we have to rely on technology to solve this problem.

But before the development of technology, new markets needed to be opened up in order to ease the conflicts.

The population of New Daming is still in a period of rapid growth.

The territory is vast, but most of the place is still an agricultural society.

After two or three hundred years of development, the benefits still only extend to places with convenient transportation.

In many remote areas, they received food relief but no industrialization.

So the population grew.
