Uncle Lin fell from the sky [Red Mansion + Qing Chuan]

Although the current Qing Dynasty decided to change its previous foreign policy because of its huge profits, the long-term thinking made them ashamed to mention the word "economy" in court.However, I believe that with the change of time, this kind of thinking will inevitably change accordingly.

So Kangxi summoned two sons who had returned from a long journey, and they were already the queens of the dynasty.

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation right now, besides the emperor, there are many important ministers and princes who are looking forward to it.Although Jiu Ye and Shi Ye were rarely neglected in the palace because of their mother and concubine and their personalities, they valued them to a limited extent. After all, there are so many elder brothers with their own abilities. The dandyism of the two bullies in China and China can be compared.

Now, as soon as they entered the main hall, everyone's eyes were focused on the two of them. As the princes of the Qing Dynasty, Yinzhen and Yin'e normally would not be stage fright.But look at the people in the main hall at this moment, the emperor Ama, the household department, the official department, the minister of rites, whom all the sons respect and want to ask for approval, and the eldest brother who has never looked down on them, the prince The most honorable prince in the world, the third brother and the fourth brother...

They were absolutely right. These brothers had expectations, curiosity, and even more envy in their eyes.After all, they are the first brothers who have traveled to other countries and returned. If they don’t go out, they really don’t know that the outside world is really big and exciting.

Thinking of this, the two brothers couldn't help but feel a little flustered, the corners of their mouths raised high, looking at Emperor Kangxi who was sitting high above him, speechless with all the brothers.

Fortunately, Emperor Kangxi coughed a few times, and finally called back the spirits of the two brothers. The goods they brought back this time were roughly converted into silver profits. On the way back, Yinzhen had roughly estimated a certain amount. Write a letter back to inform Emperor Kangxi.

Although Emperor Kangxi was still very excited when he thought of that number now.But now he needs to hear from his two sons what they have seen and heard along the way, as well as the information they have obtained.

After all, when they went out this time, in addition to exploring business routes, they also took this opportunity to investigate the various forces in Mongolia and the situation in Tsarist Russia.Although Yinzhen likes to do business, he was born in the royal family. Compared with ordinary people, his political sensitivity is not low at all. On the way from Zhangjiakou to Kulun, and then to Qiaktu, Yinzhen led people to secretly investigate Collected a lot of information about the platforms, Karen, post stations, and border guard points of the Qing army along the way, and recorded them one by one. Fortunately, although these Qing troops stationed in private communicated with the Mongolian tribes, they did not have any unusual behavior. , the rather ambiguous one is also called Yinzhen, and Yin'er was circled, and we will focus on observing it later.

In addition to Mongolia, the two brothers also concealed their identities and went to Tsarist Russia to visit some places in person. The status of big businessmen who came from afar in the Qing Dynasty made them receive warm hospitality from many Tsarist Russian nobles in Tsarist Russia. The two brothers used good tea , silk and porcelain, not only exchanged a lot of books, but also learned a lot about the current situation of Tsarist Russia through these nobles.

"Huang Ama, you don't know. The person who is actually in power in Tsarist Russia now is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Not only did he accept power at a young age, but also for the development of the country. I heard that he concealed his identity and went to the farther west to study. With all kinds of skills, once they returned to China, they began to reform and vigorously supported commerce. In a short period of time, the power of Tsarist Russia has doubled. Resources..." Yinzhen beamed as she talked about the news she had inquired about, emphasizing a few words about the importance of the economy.

Yin'e added: "Yes, Huang Ama, we have to be more vigilant and careful about this country. They have not only traded with us, but also traded with other countries over the years, and they have invested a lot of money in the national army. I heard that their firearms have been polished and are now very powerful, and they have expanded a lot of rifle teams and artillery. It's just that the sons have no way to check it out. And although they will focus on it for a long time to come Go to the northwest of the land to fight against those foreign countries, but once their power expands and their national strength becomes stronger, they will inevitably turn around and deal with our Qing Dynasty." Thinking of Lin Zizhen and them mentioning the power of Tsarist Russia's fire/arms many times, plus asking Yin'er could not help emphasizing the news coming.

Hearing this, Emperor Kangxi, who had been silent all this time, frowned. He had fought against Tsarist Russia several times before. How could Emperor Kangxi know nothing about Tsarist Russia? He knew what Lao Jiu and Lao Shi said.This is also the reason why he does not want to trade with Tsarist Russia.

It's just that the people he sent didn't find out about the recent expansion of Tsarist Russia's firearms army.This is also because Yinzhen Yiner was willing to spend money and bought a lot of spirits. Only then did he get to know some Tsarist Russian nobles. Only then did he know that many young people from that noble family were called into the firearms team for training this year. Inferred from a few words.

Judging from previous battles, Tsarist Russia's firearms were not weak, and now it has upgraded and expanded its army.If this is true, then they have to be more careful with the neighbor of Tsarist Russia, and the fire/arms battalion should also be activated. It is just to expand the army and let soldiers equip a large number of guns, and the danger is not easy to deal with.

Yinzhen was afraid that Huang Ama would want to cut off the trade routes between the two countries because of what the tenth brother said, and use the closed-door policy here.He didn't just do business to satisfy himself, but during this period of time, after discussing economics with Lin Zizhen from time to time, he personally took a trip to Tsarist Russia. On the way, Yinzhen was learning Russian with Li Wanyu.

Fortunately, he studied hard and was exceptionally gifted in language since he was a child. After three months of traveling back and forth, he is now able to communicate normally in Russian, and he will take time to read some collected books related to foreign economies on the way.Now he really believes that the economy can be used as a powerful lever, which can easily shake up the stability of a country if it is used properly.

Immediately said hurriedly: "Huang Ama and the others can use the trade route to obtain high profits, feed back the country, and expand the army. On the contrary, we can also, and we even have an advantage over them. We have a large land and abundant resources, and many things are in Tsarist Russia is extremely popular and can easily maintain its superiority in the trade between the two countries. In addition, we can also monitor Mongolia through trade routes, explore news of Tsarist Russia, and even further afield.

With such a large territory outside, perhaps, one day, the cavalry of the Qing Dynasty will appear farther west. "Far more than the Mongol Khan and Temujin's legend. Then he, the money bag nine princes who contributed to the Qing treasury, is no longer derogatory.

Emperor Kangxi looked at his old Jiu and became more and more excited as he talked, his eyes seemed to be shining in broad daylight, thinking of Yi Mei.Only then did he open his mouth to interrupt the child who was about to dream.

"Okay, the caravans are all set up, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, will he back down at this time? This matter will continue to be implemented according to the original plan. As for the others, we will talk about it later." As the emperor, he said that the unification of Mongolia is still It's a bit difficult, it doesn't mean that we have to marry so many daughters every year, and now the granddaughters are all mentioned.And his ninth son, his vision is high enough, and his goal is to imitate Genghis Khan's Mongolian cavalry and sweep the west.

Cough, although their cavalry of the Qing army is not weak, they are not strong enough to exaggerate, and they need so much land for what they can't manage, and it is easy to cause bad things by distracting energy and troops.

And the rest of the hall looked at their ninth elder brother with a brand-new perspective. Unexpectedly, in the past, they only thought that their ninth elder brother was a prince who was willing to work with businessmen and had no ambitions. Speaking up, it's scary.

However, his words also fall into the hearts of the crown prince, the king of Zhijun, the fourth master and the eighth elder brother. Those who have hidden ambitions and ambitions for the world can easily be provoked by Yinzhen.

Yinzhen was looked at meaningfully by his brothers, and his originally high morale was suddenly defeated. He couldn't help reexamining whether what he said was too exaggerated, but it was less persuasive.But it's not impossible at all...

When the group of them left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the brothers in front, like a pantomime, patted Yinzhen's shoulder one by one, without saying anything, only making him feel nervous.

Yinzhen pulled the starling who was the closest in the past, and wanted to ask something, but before he could say anything, the eighth brother patted him on the shoulder and praised: "It's very good, the ninth brother has also grown up. In the past few days you I think there are a lot of things to do here, and in a few days, Myna will post a post to invite you and my tenth brother to come to the mansion to have a good gathering, and talk more about the outside world with Myna.”

Originally, he was in a really bad mood these past few days, as if he had some bad luck. Fortunately, he spent a lot of manpower and material resources to catch the handle of those officials, coerce and lure people to join him , I didn't want to be taken away by the people of Shuntian Mansion before he could use it.

And the handles he held in his hands were all in vain.But is this just a coincidence?Ba Ye didn't believe it.Even though the Chinese New Year is approaching, Ba Ye is still restless.

However, the words of the ninth brother and the others today swept away the gloom and made him feel excited.

Only Yinzhen, Yin'e, and the younger Shisan and Shisan were left beside them, confused.However, Fourteen, who had always been screaming, strangled his ninth brother's neck, and said loudly: "Ninth brother, I contributed a lot to the caravan, but you and I were the ones who went out to play in the end." Brother Ten, I don’t know when it will be possible to go to the place where foreigners you mentioned, and I will definitely ask Huang Ama to lead the army when the time comes.”

"It's just here and there, it's still early."

"Anyway, I don't care, Brother Ninth, hurry up and get some more money back, so that the future master and the old thirteen can go to open up the territory of the Qing Dynasty."

"Who is the old thirteen? My brother."

The members of the royal family of the Qing Dynasty have all the cockfighting attributes in their hearts awakened, and the stronger they are, the stronger they are.

How can they watch other countries continue to grow stronger.
