Chapter 281 Cooperation Opportunities

The world is in chaos? Yi Quezuo glanced at the other party in confusion. During this period, Nanyang has become a new raven trading center, and the main force of smuggling ravens is the Tiandihui. As the head of the Sandouhui of Fujian, Huang Dianyuan should have contacted the Nanyang Tiandihui for a long time. What does he mean when he said that the world is in chaos?

After pondering for a moment, Yi Zhizu tentatively said: "Will the heaven and earth want to take advantage of the opportunity of the court's war with England?"

"Truece should be clear that the Eight Banners Green Camp is far from an opponent of the British army." Huang Dianyuan said: "The heaven and earth will aim to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. How could it miss such a rare opportunity?" After a brief pause, he continued: "Truece is in the Eight Institute to train private soldiers, and now it has formed 10,000 elite teams to train. Why do we come? Why not take advantage of this rare opportunity, cooperate internally and externally, and stir up the earth when it is turned upside down!"

Yi Shizu smiled, "Brother Rong, don't be too busy putting a hat on it. You can't afford it. The troops of the eight schools are Yuanqi's merchant protection regiment and mine protection teams. The former Deng Butang, the current Lin Butang, the navy admiral, and the general of Qiongzhou, all know clearly, how can I say that I can prepare for private soldiers?"

Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "All the miners and mine protection teams in Nachanghua Iron Mine, and all the Hong Kong protection teams are meeting three points. The Qinglian Church members, and the Qinglian Church, are also people from the Qinglian Church. The government will never know."

Yi Zhizu took out a cigar and sniffed it at the end of his nose, then said slowly: "How come this sounds like a threat to me?"

"I dare not." Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "The lives of thousands of congregations in the three-point meeting are in the hands of the content. How dare you threaten them?"

Yi Zhizu waved his hand, interrupted his words, and said in a deep voice: "Yuanqi is different from the world. Yuanqi Bank branch codes are all prefectures and counties in Guangdong, and machine silk reeling factories are all counties and towns in silk production. All the owners are gentry and merchants, and all the staff are good people. They live a wealthy life and have no worries about food and clothing. How could they follow chaos? If Yuanqi advocates chaos, they will immediately collapse. If those officials in Guangzhou had not seen this, how could they allow Yuanqi to form such a large-scale elite group training?"

What this said was true. Huang Dianyuan nodded and then said in confusion: "Since that is the case, why did Yuan Qi raise such a huge private army? Not to mention that it was to assist the court in resisting foreign aggression."

Yi Zhizu cut a match and lit a cigar, slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke, and said: "The Yuanqi group training is really to help the court resist foreign aggression. Yuanqi's factories are all outside the city of Guangzhou. Once the war spreads to the city of Guangzhou, the consequences will be unimaginable."

When he stared at him, Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "I am not a local official in Guangzhou, why should I say that I am so proud? Changhua group training, Shunde group training, Yuanqi group training, plus the Western warships and two fleets in Shanghai, the two fleets of Shizu have more than 20,000 troops in his hands. This is all to assist the court in resisting foreign aggression?"

Seeing that the other party had a clear understanding of his own family's assets, Yi Zhizu was not surprised and said, "It's not that it's so high-sounding. Yuan Qi cultivated his armed forces to protect himself, and resisting foreign aggression is also to protect himself."

After hearing this, Huang Dianyuan said keenly: "Sincerely worried about the court annexing Yuanqi?"

Yi Zhizu glanced at him and said, "Yuan Qi's size is so large that he can compete with a country, but he is also a rich man. How can he not worry?"

"Then I'm really confused." Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "Wasn't the court even more afraid of Yuan Qi so rich and raising such a large-scale private soldiers?"

Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "It depends on how Yuan Qi grasps the measure in this."

What does this mean? Huang Dianyuan was puzzled and said in confusion: "Can you tell me in detail?"

"No." Yi Zhizu refused without thinking: "It's related to Yuanqi's development, and it's not convenient to disclose it." As he said, he changed his mind and said: "There is no unity between the various gangs of the Tiandihui Association. This time, can the Tiandihui Association of Nanyang, Guangdong and Fujian unite together?"

Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "Yuan Qi is determined to resist foreign aggression in order to protect himself. We are enemies, not friends, so it is not convenient to disclose the details below."

After hearing this, Yi Zhizu frowned and said, "Can the Heaven and Earth Association want to help the evil and assist Yingji in attacking the Qing Dynasty?"

"What does it mean to aid evil people?" Huang Dianyuan said: "We are against the Qing Dynasty. What's wrong with assisting Yinggeli? It's just to use Yinggeli as a gun."

Are you really ready to assist Yinggeli? Yi Zhizu was speechless for a while and said for a while: "This kind of behavior is no different from a traitor! To be honest, I am not disgusted by heaven and earth to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, but so useless means, it makes people have to disgust. Not to mention that Yuan Qi does not rebel, even if he rebels, he is ashamed to be with heaven and earth."

Seeing that he bluntly scolded Tiandi for being a traitor, Huang Dianyuan looked a little ugly and defended himself: "Those who use the power of foreign tribes to regain the world are endless in history. Why is it so unbearable to say as contented as saying?"

"That's different." Yi Zhizu said in a deep voice: "The so-called foreign races in history are all ethnic groups around China. Although they have strong military power, their civilization is backward and they are eventually integrated into advanced Han civilization. However, English and Geely are different. Not to mention being far away from the ocean, Western civilization is not inferior to our Eastern Han civilization at all, and even surpassing us. The British invasion represents the invasion of Western civilization. We may be assimilated by Western civilization like the assimilated ethnic minorities in history."

Huang Dianyuan said in confusion: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with the ethnic minorities assimilated by the Han people. Isn't it good to have the opportunity to accept advanced civilization?"

"Okay! How can it be bad?" Yi Zhizu said coldly: "Brother Yourong is also a person who travels thousands of miles. You should know what the result of being assimilated. To put it nicely, that is to accept advanced civilization. To put it bluntly, it is to exterminate the race! Why does the Manchus refuse to intermarry between Manchus and Han people? Why should the Manchus keep the purity of Manchu blood? I am afraid of being completely assimilated! I am afraid of extermination! I am afraid of extermination!"

Huang Dianyuan was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief: "Can contentment be an alarmist statement? Is it so serious?"

After knocking the ashes, Yi Zhizu said: "Has Brother Rong ever heard of cultural invasion?"

Huang Dianyuan shook his head and said, "I have never heard of this before."

"Western missionaries came to our Qing Dynasty to preach mission, which was a kind of cultural invasion. Why did the court severely suppress it? Until the end, it was strictly prohibited from preaching Western missionaries, because Western missionaries not only spread Western religions, but also Western civilization." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "Brother Rong just imagine that thirty or fifty years later, Chinese people talk about foreign languages, write foreign characters, believe in foreign religions, and wear foreign clothes. What would it be like?"

Huang Dianyuan really couldn't imagine this situation. After pondering for a moment, he said, "We are just using the British as gun envoys, how can we let the British envoys enter China?"

Yi Zhizu said unceremoniously: "Do you deceive yourself!"

"This is really not a self-deception." Huang Dianyuan said disinterestedly: "English is small and has a small population, and our country is vast and has a large population. England is actually just trying to trade with us, and has no intention of entering China."

"Yes, England has no intention of taking over China. Their purpose is to turn China into their colony. Even if the Heaven and Earth can successfully overthrow the Qing Dynasty in the end, China will become the same as India." Yi Zhizu said and looked at him and sneered: "The South China World and Earth know a lot about England and Earth, and should be clear about what India is like now?"

Huang Dianyuan retorted: "Can the Qing emperor prevent China from becoming an English colony?"

"As long as we win this battle, we can avoid becoming an English colony." Yi Zhizu said: "Yuan Qi spared no effort to donate and form a group training for this purpose."

After a while of silence, Huang Dianyuan said, "The Tao is different and does not plan for each other." As he said that, he stood up and saw that he wanted to say goodbye, Yi Qunzu smiled and said, "It is not the case. Tao is divided into big roads and small roads, and the goals are divided into long-term and short-term, and there is also the final goal."

"Oh?" Huang Dianyuan looked at him in surprise, sat down slowly, and said, "What's the point of contentment? Let's listen carefully."

"Not to talk about the meeting of heaven and earth for now." Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "Brother Yourong is a scholar, and he has fame and fortune. Is he the ambition of establishing his mind for heaven and earth, establishing his destiny for the living people, inheriting his unique knowledge for the past sages, and opening up peace for all ages?"

Huang Dianyuan looked at him vigilantly and said, "Don't go around in circles with contentment."

Seeing that he didn't take this, Yi Zhizu smiled distractedly and said, "Then we talk about the Heaven and Earth Association, but we are not interested in the career of business, and we can be regarded as a member of the gang. I have always been puzzled. If we say that the Heaven and Earth Association rebelled against the Qing Dynasty in the early Qing Dynasty, it was because we were thinking about our homeland. In a flash of more than a hundred years, the Ming Dynasty had long been forgotten. The orthodox Qing Dynasty was already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the Heaven and Earth Association still took the purpose of rebellion as its purpose. To put it bluntly, you are just deceiving yourself and looking for a reason for rebellion. If you want to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and become the emperor by yourself, right?"

Huang Dianyuan sarcastically said, "Shizu is also a Han Chinese, so why are you willing to continue to enslave the Qing Dynasty?"

"Of course I'm not willing to give up, otherwise there is no need to stay Brother Rong." Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "If it were in Europe, Yuanqi would not have to guard against the court like this, because in Europe, private property is sacred and inviolable, Yuanqi could have developed and grown wholeheartedly, but in the Qing Dynasty, I had to spend a lot of effort to deal with the court to protect my own private property. With this, I can't tolerate this court.

Therefore, we are not trying to work together in different ways. As for long-term goals, Yuanqi and Tiandi have common goals. The differences between the two companies are short-term goals and ultimate goals."

The final goal, Huang Dianyuan was a little surprised and couldn't help asking: "What is the final goal?"

Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "What is the ultimate goal of the Heaven and Earth Society? It should be correct to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and become the emperor by himself, right?"

Huang Dianyuan gave him a blank look and said, "If you overthrow the Qing Dynasty and don't become emperor, can you recommend others to be emperors?"

"So, our ultimate goal is different." Yi Zhizu said: "Yuan Qi's goal is to overthrow the imperial system, implement the Western democratic republic system, and completely give democracy and freedom to the gentry, merchants and the people. Of course, to overthrow the imperial system, we must overthrow the Qing Dynasty."

"Superde the imperial system? Democratic republic?" Huang Dianyuan said in surprise: "Without the emperor, what would it be like?"

Nowadays, there are two systems of constitutional monarchy and democratic republic. If you are content with it, you will naturally not dare to say constitutional monarchy. This is inconsistent with the purpose of the Tiandihui Society. After a smile, he said: "The Xiguan Daily will give a detailed introduction to the Western democratic republic system. Brother Rong will pay attention to it.

Let’s talk about the short-term goals first. What is the current goal of the Tiandihui? Assist the British Navy to capture Guangzhou, Fujian, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and advance northward all the way to the capital?"

After pondering for a moment, Huang Dianyuan smiled and said, "We are not content to think so long. At present, we must first see the scale of the British troops sent and whether the war is going smoothly before we can make a decision."

"In other words, wait and see first, English will fight easily, and you will help Taiping Fist. If the war is not going well, just pretend that there is no such thing, but that's it?" Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "This is the same as having a sense of money, and it is not a short-term goal."

Huang Dianyuan's face turned red when he said it. The result of discussion among the leading brothers of various gangs was really this plan. It was really appropriate to say that he wanted to make money. He admitted frankly: "I'm not afraid of contentment jokes, this is indeed a temporary idea."

"Then you are afraid you will be disappointed." Yi Zhizu said: "As Brother Yourong said, the purpose of the British army was to raise a bribery, so this determines that the scale of the British army sent would not be too large. Besides, the British army was separated by tens of thousands of miles from the Qing Dynasty, and the army was expeditioned. How much military expenditure would be? British will not ignore the accounts. According to my estimate, sending 20,000 troops is the limit."

"Twenty thousand?" Huang Dianyuan couldn't help but say, "Twenty thousand soldiers came to fight the Qing Dynasty on an expedition? How is this possible? This is simply a bad thing."

"Don't underestimate the British Navy." Yi Zhizu said: "Twenty thousand British Navy is enough to rush around the coast of the Qing Dynasty."

Huang Dianyuan said with some disappointment: "That won't help?"

Seeing him with a disappointed look, Yi Quezuo smiled and said, "What about us to do a deal?"

Huang Dianyuan immediately became a little alert and said, "What transaction?"

After pondering for a while, Yi Zhizu said: "The army must be guided when it is dispatched. Moreover, the British Navy knows very little about all aspects of the Qing Dynasty. It is necessary to be familiar with and understand the situation of the Qing Dynasty and be at ease to help out suggestions. People in the Tiandihui are the most suitable.

If the British army is invincible, it can help the Tiandihui achieve great things. Yuanqi can not only respond actively in Guangzhou, but also provide large amounts of silver and money loans to the Tiandihui. However, if the British army finds it difficult to help the Tiandihui achieve things, I hope the Tiandihui can cooperate with Yuanqi to kill the British army's aura."

“How to cooperate?”

"Simple." Yi Zhizu smiled and said, "Just guide the British army to attack coastal ports or cities. For details, I will talk about it later."
