Rebirth of the Four Seas Emperor

Chapter 149 Daxia Businessmen

Old Port now belongs to the Bazhang Kingdom, but the Bazhang Kingdom is an alliance country.

In addition to the directly administered territory of Bajan itself, the territory also has free territories and vassals, including the kings of Central Java and East Java.

Now the lords from all over the country are at war with each other, and the Bazhang Kingdom has ceased to exist in name only and is in a state of division.

The current Bajrang King Alia Panjiri is a devout Muslim. He does not care about the division of power in the country and only wants to develop believers in the Lord.

Daxia people believe in pragmatism. Due to cultural reasons, they are the most difficult nation to be religious, so they have naturally been on the king's blacklist for a long time.

But since the people of Daxia basically abide by the law, Aria Panjiri has no excuse if he wants to deal with these people.

This time Shi Yilong came to see Hou Yao for family reasons, which gave Aria Panjili a perfect excuse.

Meeting envoys from other countries in private was suspected of treason. In addition, Shi Yilong's own faith was not firm, and he had long been on Aria Panjiri's blacklist.

Therefore, he can perfectly execute all the Daxia people in both public and private matters. He only needs to capture the Shi family and torture them, forcing them to bite each other, and he can clear out all the Daxia people in Bazhang City without any effort.

Yesterday, the Shi family's spies in the palace got the news first and immediately passed it to the Shi family in Jiugang.

All the Shi family members have been arrested, only Shi Yilong escaped.The Yan family has all been arrested.

The real fatal disasters are actually caused by oneself.

Hou Yao sighed deeply, this Shi Yilong really didn't repent even when he was about to die.

"That's enough. Do you really think that I am a three-year-old child? The king of a country massacres his subjects just to promote religion? Such a fatuous king is in a divided country like Bazhang. He will be overthrown long ago. Okay? That’s all, I don’t want to hold you accountable anymore, so drive this person away and don’t let him get close to us again.”

When Shi Yilong saw that Hou Yao was serious, he immediately panicked. Originally, his words were both true and false, and it was difficult to distinguish between them. Unexpectedly, Hou Yao didn't even think about distinguishing between true and false with him, and just drove him away.

After being dragged halfway, Shi Yilong yelled crazily:

"Your Highness..., Your Highness..., help me, I really didn't lie..."

Hou Yao was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Seeing that he was about to be kicked off the boat, Shi Yilong was really anxious this time:

"I said... I'm honest, Your Highness..., help..."

Hou Yao looked back and said feebly:

"Let him finish."

……

During the reign of the Shi Jinqing family, Jiugang spawned four more active families: Shi, Yan, Peng, and Chen.

They used their compatible cultural identities as Bactrians and Muslims to long-term connections between Bactrian merchants and the sultanates of the Malay Archipelago.

As a result, Sumatra has become an important maritime trade hub, allowing Muslim culture to further grow and develop in economic development.

The subsequent invasion of Majapahit made the Xuanweisi of the old port a thing of the past, but as the number of Chinese Muslims immigrated increased, another group that cannot be underestimated gradually formed.

The merchants of Daxia, headed by the four major families of Peng, Yan, Shi and Chen, immigrated.

They almost monopolize [-]% of the local business industry.

Even the split of the Bazhang Kingdom was not unrelated to the local Daxia merchants.

It has not been a year or two since Aria Panjiri wanted to deal with the businessmen of Daxia.

But firstly, he didn't have enough power in his hands, and secondly, he was worried that Daxia merchants would be unable to counterattack.

Of course, the biggest worry is that after losing Daxia merchants, Bazhang will also lose contact with Daxia maritime merchants, and their status as a maritime trade hub will be lost.

It was precisely because of these concerns that he never made up his mind to take action.

It's just that the situation is different this year. All the lords in Bazhang feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.

The lord of Yogyakarta, Suta Wijaya Sennapati, became increasingly powerful, causing other lords to feel deeply uneasy.

The royal city of Bajan is only a few dozen kilometers away from Yogyakarta, so many lords who were not very powerful were afraid of being defeated one by one, so they put down their bodies and took the initiative to move closer to King Alia Panjiri.

The power in the hands of Alia Panjiri has also been greatly strengthened, but war is money to fight. He has called on national believers to raise donations to prepare for the upcoming national war.

Most of the indigenous people are poor and cannot afford money at all.

All the money is in the hands of the Daxia merchants, but every one of the Daxia merchants is crying for poverty, and they only make symbolic donations.

Aria Panjiri's donation order was issued nearly half a year ago, but the amount of money raised was only one million. How could this amount of money be enough to support a national war?

This time Shi Yilong made a fool of himself again and brought the Yan family to see Hou Yao, imagining another adventure that his ancestor had when he hugged Zheng He's thick legs.

It didn’t arrive, the thighs weren’t hugged, and it gave Aria Panjiri a perfect excuse.

This time, it is really possible that all the Daxia merchant groups on Sumatra and Java Islands will be killed.

And once this kind of thing starts, how can it be easily controlled?

Those Daxia immigrants who are not businessmen will also be affected. No, their fate may be even worse.

Because merchants are rich and powerful, and have the basic power to protect themselves, those Daxia immigrants who have no money and power have no ability to protect themselves. Once this is revealed, their casualties will definitely be greater than those of the merchants.

Hou Yao wanted to beat Shi Yilong severely, but he really didn't have the strength to do such a thing now.

Shaking his head, he was hesitant in his heart. If he went to the Old Port, he might not be able to finish it in a short time, right?

But if you don't go...

Suddenly, he remembered the horrific pictures of the anti-Chinese incident in Indonesia that he had seen on the Internet in his previous life.

To be honest, most overseas Chinese groups are kind and honest, and they get rich through hard work.

But there are always one or two exceptions, such as a certain rich man named Li Chaoren in Hong Kong and Macao in his previous life.

He obviously made his fortune by seducing his cousin and seizing his uncle's property, and he advertised everywhere that he was self-made.

Throughout his life, his secret to making money was just two words: speculation.

With his own efforts, he made a whole city homeless, and he shamelessly promoted himself as a business genius.

It is precisely because of such a piece of mouse shit that the entire Chinese business group has been lowered by half.

As he said himself, he is a pure businessman, but there are two words missing from his words: speculation.

He is a pure speculative businessman, and such businessmen are the most harmful group in the world.

Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, China has been emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business. In fact, it is this kind of speculators that it suppresses.

Regardless of the past dynasties, the Chinese court has never stopped guarding against speculators.

Why did Taizu Taizu of Great Xia kill Shen Wansan?Of course, something as imaginary as a cornucopia cannot be the reason.

The real reason is that Shen Wansan successfully monopolized the commercial lifeline of the Great Xia Dynasty by virtue of his extraordinary talent for speculation.

If he doesn't die, how can Daxia regain its commercial lifeline?

Now Shi, Yan, Peng, and Chen also monopolize the commercial lifeline of Bazhang Kingdom.

Another war in the Bajrang Kingdom is imminent. As the king, Alia Panjiri hopes that they can come up with some funds.

It's been more than half a year, and it's less than one million, which shows how seriously these people take their family wealth.

You must know that the profits of sea trade are much higher than those of land trade. The annual income of any of these four companies cannot be less than 500 million.

Hou Yao knew this very clearly.

Even if they are so rich, how do they behave when faced with a national crisis?

Hou Yao recalled the fall of the Ming Dynasty in his previous life. The dynasty was on the eve of life and death. Li Zicheng led the rebel army to fight against Beijing. They were invincible along the way and were getting closer and closer to Beijing. The situation was critical.

In order to raise food and salary, Emperor Chongzhen issued a salary donation order from mid-February.

The emperor's relatives, princes, nobles, civil servants and generals, as well as local wealthy gentry and wealthy households were called upon to make emergency donations, and it was stipulated that "[-] yuan is the best".

However, no one donated up to this amount. The highest donation was 20 taels, and most of them were only a few hundred or dozens. In the end, a total of [-] taels were raised.

When Li Zicheng went to Beijing to recover stolen goods, he collected a total of [-] taels of silver from his relatives, internal eunuchs, officials, and civilians, not counting all kinds of curios and jewelry.

This is in sharp contrast to the 20 taels raised by Chongzhen.

Before Chongzhen hanged himself, I am afraid that what he regretted most was that he could not pick up the butcher's knife and cut off those officials, officials and dignitaries who were called pillars and were actually traitors to the country.

The Ming Dynasty died because of the inequality between the rich and the poor, because of the collusion between officials and businessmen, and because of the poor countries and the rich people.

Hou Yao thought a lot in his mind, and he no longer felt ashamed of Shi, Yan, Peng, and Chen, the speculators who had brought disaster to the country.

But there are still many kind-hearted and ordinary Daxia immigrants in Old Port who must be saved.

But how to save?It is definitely unrealistic to lead the troops back home. He has delayed it for a long time, and the war in Myanmar cannot afford to wait.

"Shi Yilong, your family should have considerable influence in the entire Bazhang Kingdom, right? You should go back now and use all your family resources to prevent them from attacking the poor immigrants from Daxia. At the worst, you should delay their attack. At the most, you should delay their attack. In two months, others will come to help you.

Now I will give you a piece of advice. As the king of a country, Aria Panjiri is facing the risk of national subjugation and asks you to donate some money, but you will not give up any money. Even if I kill you all, I think it is reasonable and reasonable. After returning, I will take the initiative to donate 200 yuan. Millions of funds helped Alia Panjiri win the national war.

At the same time, tell the other four major families that it is best for all of you to work together to tide over the difficulties. If, when I return, a tragedy occurs among the Daxia immigrants in Old Port or anywhere else, I will blame the four major families on you. superior.I will definitely deal with you to the end.

If you don’t believe in my strength, you can give it a try.Now, you can go. "

Shi Yilong didn't dare to say anything more. He just felt that although this man was young, he seemed to be able to see everything, and he didn't dare to despise him.

Hou Yao sighed deeply and said to Yu Xiuer beside him:

"Send someone to inform Bai Tao and arrive at the Bazhang Kingdom within two months. If the natives of Bazhang really dare to massacre the immigrants from Daxia, then this kingdom will no longer exist. All those who dare to participate in the massacre of Daxia There is no mercy in slaughtering all the immigrants' cities. Even if the Javanese race is killed to extinction, the blood of the Daxia people cannot be allowed to flow in vain..."
