Chapter 590: Draw a pie (three shifts)

Chen Dachang raised his eyelids, "Madam is willing to use me, I should feel honored."
Unfortunately, there is no honor in the words, only indifference.
Gu Jiu smiled swiftly, "Gonggong Chen went to work in the four seas firm, and he was a scumbag. I can't see the four seas firm, my wife can understand it."
Chen Dachang finally got a little more expression on his face.
He was wondering, did Liu Zhao tell the truth with Gu Jiu?
Can Liu Zhao be so honest?
Deng Cunli frowned, "Duke Chen, you didn't say that when you came to see me at the beginning. Now my wife comes to see you in person, but you put on airs. Why is that?"
Deng Cunli fights the injustice for Gu Jiu, and is also annoyed that he has seen the wrong person.
He was sympathetic to Chen Dachang's experience. It hurts his kind, feeling the same, and can't bear to see people like him fall into a different place, so he is willing to help.
I didn't know that Chen Dachang got cheap and sold well, and even took Joe.
Especially shameless.
Gu Jiu waved his hand to signal Deng Cunli not to worry.
"Duke Chen is a capable person, a little temperamental and normal. Old Deng, you go out first. I have a few words, I want to talk to Daddy Chen alone."
Deng Cunli stared at Chen Dachang gloomily. You wait for our family. Then he was ordered to leave the tea room.
Gu Jiu smiled, and asked, "How did Grandpa Chen see Deng Cunli?"
Chen Dachang said blankly: "His good fortune."
"Duke Chen has a trace of envy?"
Chen Dachang: "..." Ha ha!
Deng Cunli was taken into the bag by Gu Jiu only if he couldn't hang around in the palace. With today's good fortune, it can only be said that the time has come.
And he was originally a close attendant of the emperor, and the most useful person by the emperor's side.
His life has already reached the peak, and he has seen the scenery of the world.
Now, regardless of whether it was a four-sea trading house or a Bahuang Liuhe trading house, he couldn't arouse the slightest interest in him.
Having been to the top, who would pay attention to the scenery on the downhill road.
If it weren't for Liu Zhao's persecution, he would only be willing to eat and die in Zhuangzi, the suburbs of Beijing, and die.
Gu Jiu understood the thoughts of people like Chen Dachang.
People, especially those with ability, have arrogance.
Don't think that eunuchs are not arrogant, they are even more sensitive than ordinary people and care more about their status.
Chen Dachang and Deng Cunli are different.
Deng Cunli had nowhere to go. Gu Jiu gives him a little trust, and he will fall in love.
Chen Dachang has never been down, but he has come down from subversion and is walking downhill in his life.
For him, this is a necessary course in life.
To be a eunuch, to live in peace, is nothing more than endowment.
Chen Dachang has all these.
To provide for the elderly, he has money himself.
At the end, there is my nephew.
It can be said that Chen Dachang's life is complete enough and he has nothing to ask for.
If he wants to make him do things for himself wholeheartedly, he can only use bigger bait to seduce him, arouse the desire hidden deep in his heart, and the ambition in his heart.
Gu Jiu looked at Chen Dachang, looking like he was looking at a mule horse in the mule and horse market, whether it was worth her money to buy.
Chen Dachang frowned slightly. It has been a long time since he looked at him. It is really nostalgic and disgusting.
"It seems that Mrs. Zhao didn't welcome our family as she said."
Gu Jiu smiled, "Duke Chen has the ability, but your ability may not be suitable for my hegemony."
"Hegemony?"
Chen Dachang was puzzled, "What is hegemony?"
Could it be that Gu Jiu wanted to rebel?
Gu Jiu picked up his teacup and drank boiled water. "Duke Chen has ever heard of body poison, Dawan, Gaochang?"
Chen Dachang laughed and said nothing.
As the most useful person around Emperor Xian, he not only knew Shenpo, Dawan, Gaochang, but also Qiuci, Wusun and so on.
Gu Jiu didn't care about the contempt in Chen Dachang's eyes.
She threw her bait little by little.
"Duke Chen has ever heard of colonization?"
Chen Dachang frowned and thought for a long time, never remembering that the word colonization was mentioned in the collection.
So he simply asked: "What is colonization?"
Gu Jiu smiled!
The eyebrows were crooked, and he smiled proudly.
I'm not afraid that you will be arrogant, but that you are not capable.
Gu Jiu throws out his own rough cut version of the colonial definition, "Control the power of one city, one place, one country, squeeze their labor, grab their taxes, mine their minerals, cut down their forests, and seize their seaports.
Feed the people of Da Zhou with the food grown on their land. Use their minerals to flood Da Zhou's warehouse.
At the same time, we dump high-profit products such as cotton, silk, porcelain, tea, candy and so on that we produced in Dazhou. Let our businessmen in Great Zhou go to that city, place and country to do business and earn their money.
At the same time, schools were opened to train literati and officials loyal to my Da Zhou, and to support princes who were loyal to my Da Zhou to inherit the throne. At the same time decay their army, we will send troops to station their barracks, and they will use money to support our army. This is colonization! "
boom!
As if there were a hundred catties of explosives exploding in my mind, exploding!
Chen Dachang's heart, which had been silent for many years, was throbbing and pounding at this moment, and it seemed extremely powerful.
The turbid gaze seemed to have been torn away from the mist, gleaming with stinging light.
His voice was trembling, and his whole body was trembling, "Nurture the people of this country with the power of another country?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "Grandpa Chen deserves to be the smartest student in the study, and he sums it up very well."
"Is this to start a national war?"
Gu Jiu smiled!
"Duke Chen was wrong. This is colonization. Colonization does not need to start a national war. Colonies use force as a deterrent and use commerce as a means to directly break through the country's door. Once the door is opened, what should be done in the future is a trivial matter. Father-in-law. With Father Chen's ability, if even colonization can't be done well, this lady will doubt the vision of the first emperor in choosing people."
Chen Dachang was breathing fast, his face flushed, and his muscles followed.
He grabbed the short table with both hands, like a crazy gambler, "Where does the force come from?"
Gu Jiu laughed, "Jiangnan, on the sea. Those pirates are the best pioneers. If you die, you don't have to feel distressed. Father Chen dare?"
Chen Dachang narrowed his eyes.
At this moment, he has been bewitched by the pie drawn by Gu Jiu.
He yearned for that kind of life.
He is less than fifty years old this year. If he is lucky, he can live for 20 to 30 years. He wants to colonize overseas.
He wants to go outside to rule the king and hegemony, to let people know that not only can he serve the emperor, he can also fight the world.
He breathed deeply, but there was still a little sane in his mind.
"Madam wants to subdue the pirates?"
Gu Jiu shook his head: "No, it's not to subdue. It's to fight to subdue. I just want to be obedient and courageous pirates, don't stab the head, don't turn the bones. All stabs and bones will be killed without mercy."
Chen Dachang was surprised.
Gu Jiu in front of him was obviously a gentle person, but what he said was bloody.
Gu Jiu raised an eyebrow and smiled, "If Grandpa Chen didn't have the consciousness of killing people, you don't have to go to Jiangnan."
"no no……"
"Does Grandpa Chen don't want to go to Jiangnan, or do you want to go? You have to make it clear. If you don't want to go, I'll find someone else. The godsons of Grandpa Chang En Chang are all good abilities, and they are considered good candidates. Those military commanders are noble, if they are willing, this lady will not hesitate to sponsor them to go to sea."
Chen Dachang shook his head again and again, "Madam mentioned these people, all of which are inappropriate. No one is more suitable for this task than Chen Dachang."
"Really? Fighting pirates is not just talking about it. What does Duke Chen plan to do?"
Chen Dachang gritted his teeth with a grim expression, "Madam, give me a man and a horse. In three years, our family will give you a clean coast."
Gu Jiu slowly shook his head, "Duke Chen doesn't understand the sea. Three years have taken it for granted. The pirate leader Li Hailong, as far as I know, is actually Zhou Jin. He is a young man with a dark heart. There are countless boats. How does Grandpa Chen want to fight? Let alone completely subdued.
Let's not hide it from Father Chen, our ship is still a little worse than the pirate ship. Now the shipyard on the southern side of the Yangtze River is taking the time to transform the sea-going vessels and build sea-going vessels more suitable for long-distance voyages. It's just that shipbuilding is slow, lack of refined iron, and lack of wood for shipbuilding. The timber has to be shipped from overseas, which is really a waste of time. "
Chen Dachang is a smart man.
He calmed down from his passion, "What does Madam want me to do?"
Gu Jiu looked at Chen Dachang with a smile but a smile, "Is Grandpa Chen willing to go to Jiangnan?"
Chen Dachang nodded, "I am willing to encourage my wife."
It's not easy!
Draw a pie, and finally subdued Chen Dachang, a talented person.
Gu Jiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and felt proud again.
Who is Chen Dachang? He is the most useful person around Emperor Xian.
Now that this person is accepted by her and willing to use it for her, it is so happy.
Gu Jiu said: "In order to facilitate shipbuilding, my lady has arranged for people to go to sea to build shipyards overseas and collect materials on the spot. Gong Gong Chen doesn't have to worry about this.
The first thing Grandpa Chen had to do when he went to Jiangnan was to defend the Jiangnan market for me, sort out the local relations, and completely open up the situation. And find out the pirates' partners on land and their secret docks. I will send someone to inform about the specific situation in Jiangnan before Grandpa Chen leaves. "
Chen Dachang deliberated, "Madam wants to deal with pirates, do you have a killer?"
Gu Jiu laughed, as expected to be Grandpa Chen, and he could see the crux of the problem at a glance.
Pirates are not so easy to deal with. It is difficult to completely eliminate those pirates by relying on the newly established navy.
Not to mention that Liu Zhao reached an agreement with the general governor of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Government, and within a few years, the two sides suspended the fight.
In this context, if you want to deal with pirates, you have to have your own assassin.
Gu Jiu said: "It's about confidentiality, so I can't tell you for the time being. One day, Duke Chen proves his ability and gains my trust. The layout of the four seas in the south of the Yangtze River will be completely open to Duke Chen, everything is undefended."
Chen Dachang was a little unhappy, but he could understand.
It is impossible for him to explain everything from the beginning.
It's a matter of life, no matter how cautious you are.
Chen Dachang nodded, "If it is possible, our family hopes to leave Beijing for Jiangnan in ten days."
Gu Jiu laughed.
When people have desires, they are particularly motivated.
"Grandpa Chen doesn't need to be so anxious."
"No, our family wants to get to know Jiangnan soon."
There is nothing to worry about in the capital.
Since I was young, I have been in the palace, and I have been so familiar with the place in the capital.
Now that there is a wider world waiting for him outside, he is unwilling to waste time on trivial things.
"Madam, our family is a long way old, and every day passes by one day. Our family wants to go to Jiangnan earlier, but also wants to set foot on overseas lands earlier, and one day achieve colonization."
Gu Jiu lowered his head and smiled.
She knew that Chen Dachang was an active pioneer.
This is in line with the temperament of Emperor Xian.
When the first emperor chose people to serve, he naturally chose people who were pleasing to the eye and capable.
Pleasing to the eye, very important.
If the temperament matches, it will be pleasing to the eye at first glance.
Gu Jiu said: "Since Grandpa Chen has made a strong claim, this lady will do our best to cooperate. Before Grandpa Chen sets off to the south of the Yangtze River, it is better to live here and I will send someone to send in all the materials you need. There are more materials, ten I am afraid that there is not enough time.
If Grandpa Chen doesn't worry about his family, if there are any arrangements, just ask the servants here to do it. We dare not say anything else in the four seas business houses, and the efficiency of work is the highest in the capital. "
Chen Dachang hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay, I will live here for the next ten days. At home, when I remember, I will arrange for someone to do it."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Then I won't delay Father Chen doing his homework. Goodbye!"
Gu Jiu got up and left.
Soon, Er Zhuang brought people, carrying seven or eight baskets of materials to the tea room.
"Grandpa Chen, these are the materials my wife confessed to you. There are more than a dozen baskets behind."
Chen Dachang: "..." No wonder Gu Jiu said that there is a lot of information and there is not enough time.
This is more than a little too much.
Chen Dachang gritted his teeth and made the first request, "I need people. Several of my godsons and grandsons are still working in the palace and the situation is rough. If they want, please ask his wife to help them out of the palace and follow me to the south of the Yangtze River. ."
