Having power makes it difficult to control desires. It seems to be a common problem among men, and Lin Fu is no exception. Even in the descendants who are accustomed to monogamy, how many men do not have some extravagant expectations?
Gu Yingxiu went to Shan Rou to talk about the bank affairs. Lin Fu was sitting in the room, thinking wildly, and suddenly he suddenly understood: Isn't it because he is too cautious to save face? Is it possible that he can still eat it?
Is it a loss?
Lin Fu laughed dumbly, but his mind relaxed. He saw an embroidered picture on the table with full sleeves that had just been embroidered halfway. It was a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water. He thought about waiting for her to come back and tease her: What kind of picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water would be embroidered by a widow?
, are you not afraid of gossiping to others?
Thinking of what Gu Yingxiu said when she left, as long as this matter is good for the Lin family, there is no problem of using Dan Rou.
The bank matter will naturally be of great benefit to the Lin family.
After coming back from his dream, Lin Fu just followed the trend for a long time, just hoping to survive in this chaotic world, and had no particularly clear ambitions. The power of Huaidong has become established, and Lin Fu's dream has gradually become clearer. The Central Plains of China
, will be trampled by the northern barbarians every few hundred years, as if it is a fateful cycle that cannot be escaped. Lin Fu wants to completely break this fateful cycle. If it is reversed, it will be more conducive to achieving this goal. Lin Fu also
I will never be stingy!
Take it in reverse, take it in reverse!
Thinking of this, Lin Fu felt very excited. Thinking about the general trend of the world, the time left for him was really limited. This bank matter must be done quickly, well, and bigger!
Lin Fu looked at the pen and ink next to the table and couldn't help but feel excited. He spread out a piece of paper and wrote the four words "take it against the grain" in one go. He watched calmly and felt that these four words were well written.
, the power penetrates the back of the paper, and it is rare to write such powerful words.
Hearing the sound of footsteps outside, he thought Yingxiu was leading the Sixth Lady over. Lin Fu tore the four characters into pieces at will, pressed them under his pen and inkstone, and waited for Yingxiu to come in, then asked her to deal with them.
The door opened with a squeak, and Shan Rou's pretty face poked in. Seeing Lin Fu inside, her pretty face turned red for no reason, and she stuttered, "You...you're looking for me!" Her breath was a little messy.
.
Lin Fu didn't see Ying Xiu come into the yard, so he didn't know what she was thinking, but for such a delicate and beautiful young woman like Dan Rou, her stuttering words gave her a delicate and lovely energy of a young girl, which touched Lin Fu's heart and thought:
A woman should be loved and loved by others, and it is a crime of God to live alone in such a miserable life.
"Yes!" Lin Fu responded, staring into Shan Rou's charming eyes. Although he had just made love with Yingxiu Huan, he had to admit that such eyes could also make his heart flutter. Lin Fu said, "Let's go to the garden.
Speak!"
"Yeah." Shan Rou lowered her head and responded. She was both looking forward to it and scared when she came over, but when she heard that Lin Fu was going to the garden to talk about something, she was mostly disappointed. A gentle voice swallowed up all the complicated emotions.
The rain was pattering outside, but there was no one in the garden, and no one could see where Ying Xiu was running.
Lin Fu walked in front, and Dan Rou followed behind, staring at her toes with mixed emotions. Lin Fu stopped, and she almost bumped into him: "Ah!" She exclaimed softly, and Dan Rou retreated in panic.
After half a step, he apologized: "I almost hit you, I'm sorry, sir."
"You are my sixth aunt." Lin Fu said.
When Shan Rou heard Lin Fu say this, she thought he had flinched, and thought to herself: The brief hug under the hanging flower hall that night was just a drunken dream and confusion. When the waiter Lin Fu woke up, in the eyes of the man
There is power and prestige here, so how can there be any love between men and women? I should wake up, because my weak heart is filled with disappointment, and I almost shed tears.
At this time, Dan Rou was like a lilac in the rain, with a delicate and distant artistic conception. Lin Fu looked at her and asked softly: "A man has three wives and four concubines, do you women really not hate him in your heart?"
"Ah?" Shan Rou raised her head in confusion, looking at Lin Fu with eyes full of tears. She didn't know why he suddenly asked this. This is not a matter of course. What can a woman do if she hates him in her heart?
"How about being my woman?" Lin Fu stared into Dan Rou's eyes.
"..." Shan Rou couldn't even say "ah" and couldn't even believe Lin Fu's words. Her weak and confused heart was beating wildly.
"I'm in Dongya at night, come find me!" Lin Fu didn't want to make peace with Shan Rou in Yingxiu's room. That would not be respectful to either of them, so he looked into Shan Rou's eyes.
Dan Rou also mustered up the courage and did not avoid Lin Fu's burning eyes. She said softly: "Well, I will go over at night and be your woman!" After saying this, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength and held on.
Lin Fu sat down on the pillars of the pavilion and did not relax until Lin Fu walked out of the garden.
*************
Lin Fu did not wait for Yingxiu to come back, and walked through the rain alone, down the mountain to Dongya, and met Wang Chengfu coming out.
Wang Chengfu bowed his head and saluted, but Lin Fu waved his hand, telling him not to be polite, and stopped him and asked: "Chengfu, you are familiar with history books. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, every hundred years, the Central Plains will be trampled by nomadic barbarians."
Once, in your opinion, why?"
Wang Chengfu didn't expect that the envoy would suddenly ask him such a big question, so he thought in a hurry and said, "Perhaps it's because the royal way has not been followed?" There was no one around him, so Wang Chengfu dared to speak out.
, if it falls into the ears of others, I am afraid that the controller will be the first to reprimand it!
"What is the royal way?" Lin Fu asked.
"The king governs the world with benevolence and righteousness, and appeases his subjects with virtue." Confucianism has a standard explanation of the kingly way. Wang Chengfu was quick to answer, saying, "Unlike hegemony, the kingly way is unbiased, impartial and without party! Chengfu only knows
The superficial meaning is really difficult to satisfy the Lord." He bowed his head respectfully, his thoughts were surging, and he secretly asked the envoys about the king's ways. Do you want to imitate She, Cao, and Liang when it comes to domineering things? Do you have to impatiently open your claws and claws?
Wang Chengfu had not been in the core of the Huaidong Military Division for a long time. He really couldn't guess whether Lin Fu was a kingly person or a domineering person. But in this case, Lin Fu told him that it was his honor, but it was definitely not his.
Can you ask for an exit?
Lin Fu laughed loudly and said: "Confucianism talks about the way of kings, and all the schools of war talk about domineering, but they regard farmers, craftsmen, and merchants as inferior skills, but they don't know that farming, craftsmen, and merchants are the real way, and kings and dominators are nothing more than subordinate techniques!"
Wang Chengfu was stunned. It was well known that Lin Fu admired craftsmanship and miscellany, but he never expected that Lin Fu would completely put craftsmanship and miscellany above kingship and domineering!
Lin Fu didn't say anything to Wang Chengfu and waved him back.
When Confucianism and other schools discuss the way of kings and hegemons, they discuss it on the basis of productivity with farming as the main body. They do not break out of the framework of farming society at all. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the development of productivity in farming society has been relatively flat and stagflation.
stage.
Lin Fu has memories from a thousand years later. It would be pitiful if he could not see things outside the framework of a farming society.
"Productivity determines production relations" is almost universally known to women and children in later generations.
When the productive forces further developed and entered the industrial society, even when the Central Plains regime was at its most vulnerable, it was never threatened by the backward nomadic barbarian tribes in the north!
Even if the current productivity cannot be directly pushed into industrial society, at least resistance and obstacles must be reduced as much as possible. In order to eliminate the bad habit of "suppressing work, craftsmanship, business, and advocating Taoism over art", it may really be necessary to
Only when you go against the grain can you truly be able to do it.
As early as a thousand years ago, Qi Guanzhong said: "There will be no stability without farmers, no wealth without workers, and no life without business." The words "promoting business will harm farmers, and promoting industry will harm farmers" are just because they are afraid of factory owners. After the rise of the merchant class,
, it will only harm the imperial power.
Speaking of harming the imperial power, when has the king of a country, as a lonely man, ever fully grasped the imperial power?
The twelve emperors of the Dai Viet Dynasty, the founder of the country, the founder of the country, also ruled the world together with civil servants and military generals; the other eleven emperors were all controlled by relatives, internal eunuchs, or civil servants.
Now that Emperor Chongguan has ambitions and motivations, shouldn't he be manipulated by civil servants in the temple, eunuchs, generals, relatives, and the inner court?
Lin Fu knew in his heart that if he followed his plan, the Lin, Sun, Zhou and other clans would probably form an unprecedented merchant power group around Huaidong Bank, Blackwater Shipping Company, and Jiyun Society. This power group would have the ability to
Influence (enhance and weaken) imperial power.
In fact, there is no need to worry too much. Even if the power of merchant groups is harmful, it will not be more powerful than the power of eunuchs, relatives or civil servants. However, an empire must expand outwards, fight against foreign aggression, and be integrated with imperial power.
The merchant group's power is sharper and more enterprising than the eunuchs, relatives, and civil servants' power groups.
The imperial power is demonstrated, the emperor is talented and strategic, what is the difference between big merchants and big factory owners, and officials and nobles? If the emperor is a useless waste, which power group falls into the hands of him, is he not a puppet?
Lin Fu walked into Dongya. He had been caught in the rain, but he was not wet at all. When Qin Chengzu saw him coming in, he said, "I was about to send someone to find your lord. The imperial court transferred Chen Zhihu to Henan
Arrange envoys to enter the vortex and destroy the bandits!"
"What a mess!" Lin Fu took the Tang copy, but did not read it. He threw it on the table and said angrily, "How naive are the princes in the court to think that the Donghu people will give them this chance to breathe?"
Last year, the Donghu people surrounded Datong, suspected of encircling the area for reinforcements, but it also proved that Chen Zhihu was capable of guarding Datong. When Datong's defense system is riddled with holes, there is currently no one more suitable than Chen Zhihu to guard Datong.
As soon as Chen Zhihu leaves, the Donghu people will definitely attack Datong, and it is impossible to give the court a chance to breathe.
Datong is the northwest gateway of Yanjing. With Chen Zhihu guarding it, Li Zhuo dared to continue to press the army inside to rest. After Chen Zhihu left, his elite troops were also transferred and replaced with other guards. The Donghu army came to attack Datong.
Does Li Zhuo still dare to sit firmly on the inside? Is Li Zhuo sure that he will lead the Jibei army to fight the Donghu people on the outside?
Lin Fu hopes to have a buffer time of two to three years. As long as there are two or three years, after Huaidong's foundation is solidified, Huaidong can maintain an elite force of 60,000 to 80,000, and will not be at a disadvantage no matter which direction it faces.
Unexpectedly, the imperial court made such a foolish move, which completely put Li Zhuo's Yanbei defense line into passive position, making the situation somewhat difficult to judge.
Lin Fu sat down and said to Qin Chengzu: "I'll stay here to think about it carefully at night, and we'll discuss this matter tomorrow!" He originally made an appointment with the Sixth Lady for a tryst at Dongya at night, but this incident ruined half of his good mood.
, couldn't help but threw Tangchao aside in anger.
