Chapter 4 Ming Dynasty

Li Ming walked out of the light gate, immediately put away the wormhole, and then looked around vigilantly, and found that it was pitch black around.

Here is the official road, there is less than an hour before the dawn, he identified the direction, and walked in the direction of Beijing, the sky is very dark, fortunately here is the official road, Li Ming took out a pocket LED flashlight, carefully followed the official road slowly.

An hour later, the sky began to brighten, and Li Ming put away the flashlight and accelerated his travel.

The more they walked, the more people came, most of them were farmers who got up early in the morning in the suburbs of Beijing and were ready to enter Beijing, and when they saw Li Ming, their faces were full of surprise, and they hurriedly stepped aside and respectfully let Li Ming go first.

By the time Li Ming entered the capital, it was already dark. Li Ming walked through this ancient city, and the early Ming people hurried past him, looking at the shops with ancient signboards hanging all over the street, which made him feel like time and space were out of order.

Last night he was still in the lights of the modern city, but this morning he walked on the streets of the old capital three hundred years ago, he breathed in the fresh air, closed his eyes and enjoyed the first rays of the morning sun on his body.

Li Ming found a stall on the side of the street, and ate for a long time before checking out and leaving, but he didn't make money on him, only some broken silver, and the old man who supported the stall was in a hurry, thinking that Li Ming was deliberately embarrassing him.

But the other party is a scholar, how can he afford to offend a small stall owner, these scholars are the most difficult.

Li Ming saw that the old man couldn't find his broken silver, and he also secretly scolded himself for being confused and forgetting this stubble, but he didn't take it seriously, threw down a quick piece of broken silver, grabbed a handful of copper coins and left.

The old man was stupid, Li Ming's broken silver, the smallest piece was almost one or two, and the fineness was 925 silver, which was fundamentally different from the dirty broken silver of the Ming Dynasty, the old man hurriedly and excitedly closed the stall and left in a hurry.

At this time, the shops on the street had already opened, and Li Ming wandered around the street for a long time before he found a shop that dealt in all kinds of gold and silver jewelry. Li Ming stepped in. When the guy from the shop saw that the person who came in was a scholar and had a dignified appearance, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

"This son, you see what you choose, we ......"

Li Ming waved his hand to interrupt his words, and said with a blank face: "Is your shopkeeper here?" ”

The guy was scared enough by Li Ming, and hurriedly ran to the back hall, and after a while, a slightly chubby middle-aged man walked out, he was born white and pure, with a kind and wealthy face, and when he saw Li Ming, he smiled and arched his hand, "Childe, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

Li Ming smiled and said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to talk to you about some business." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, but immediately smiled and said, "Then let's go and talk later." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, invited Li Ming into the back hall, the two sides sat down, and the shopkeeper said with a smile: "Contemptible He Wenhai, I don't know what business the son has to take care of the store." ”

Li Ming untied his burden and took out a few exquisite gift boxes from inside.

"An elder in the family, received some things from overseas, and asked me to help ask about the market here in the capital, here is just a sample, if the shopkeeper is eye-catching, try to do it."

The shopkeeper's eyes had already begun to light up when he took out a few exquisite gift boxes from the time he beat Li Ming.

Not to mention anything else, just looking at these boxes, you can already guess that the things in the boxes are not destined to be ordinary, hearing Li Ming say this, he smiled and said a few polite words, and then picked up a gift box and carefully opened the lid of the box.

Inside the box is a string of cultured pearls in very good condition, each of which is lustrous and colorful, and looks very beautiful.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were no cultured pearls, and a string of pearls in such good condition was already considered the best at that time, but He Wenhai was also a figure who had been trading for many years, and his joy and anger had long been invisible.

Although he was very excited in his heart, he still didn't come out, but went on to open several other gift boxes.

These gift boxes are filled with various styles of artificial gemstones, colorful and beautiful, and they are stacked side by side in the gift box. Although He Wenhai can be regarded as a person who has experienced wind and waves, he was also surprised to see these boxes of artificial gems.

Originally, he saw that Li Ming was a scholar who didn't understand anything, and wanted to take advantage of it and fool Li Ming, but when he finished reading these gift boxes, he immediately dispelled this idea. This is an opportunity, we must envelop Li Ming and take this business next.

"I've seen things, it's really a good thing, but I don't know how many of these things there are, how is the condition?"

Li Ming smiled and said: "Don't worry about this, there are still a lot of things, my elder went overseas, these things were all obtained in Europa, the extreme west, he is in Jiangnan all the year round, and it is inconvenient to come to the capital, so he entrusted me to help him ask." ”

He Wenhai said with a smile: "Childe, please rest assured, I, He Wenhai, am in the capital, and this business can be regarded as having been done for decades, I will give you a fair price, but Childe can entrust these things to the shop." ”

Li Ming thought for a moment and said with a smile: "If I entrust it to you, it's not impossible, I don't have the energy to manage this business, as for whether I can cooperate with Shopkeeper He, it depends on whether Shopkeeper He is sincere, although I don't understand these things, but my elder has also told me some market conditions." ”

He Wenhai was overjoyed when he heard this, patted his chest tightly and assured, and then discussed the price with Li Ming, He Wenhai was bound to get it, and the price was fair, Li Ming didn't care, anyway, he made it anyway.

Li Ming is coming to the Ming Dynasty now, to be honest, it's really not for money, he just wants to find a place to settle down in the Ming Dynasty, and if he has nothing to do, he will go back and forth between the two time and space, and he will take a vacation.

He found a manufacturer specializing in cultured pearls on the Internet, wholesaled a large number of cultured pearls in good condition, and also wholesaled a certain number of artificial gemstones, and also selected the best quality.

But I didn't expect that after negotiating the price with He Wenhai today, according to the exchange rate of the two time and space, it would still be dozens of times the profit, and it would be difficult to hold the wormhole even if it was not developed.

He Wenhai finished this business, and he was in a very good mood, and invited Li Ming to the East Banquet at noon, and the two came to the private room of a restaurant, and drank the wine and food, and Li Ming also asked him euphemistically about what he wanted to know.

Li Ming's amount of alcohol, that is a person who has nothing to do with one pound and two pots, wants to fill He Wenhai as if he is playing, and he will give He Wenhai a lot of time when he comes and goes, and Li Ming also took the opportunity to inquire about a lot of news about this era.

This inquiry was good, and it almost scared Li Ming to death......

It turned out that this plane was exactly the same as the history of the world he was in now. What surprised him the most was that it was actually the sixth year of the Ming Dynasty's Apocalypse, 1626 in history, and two more years would be the first year of Chongzhen, that is, the unlucky man who hanged himself on the coal mountain in history.

The words that Chongzhen said before he died, Li Ming was very impressed. "The king is not the king of the dead country, the ministers are the ministers of the dead country!"

He is an emperor, what a lot of resentment does it have to be to say such a thing, you can imagine what the situation has reached at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and now the image of the death of the country has been fully revealed, even if the Jade Emperor descends to earth, he can't save the Ming Dynasty.

Huang Taiji of the Manchu Qing Dynasty also ascended the throne this year, and twenty years later, the Manchu Qing Dynasty will wave its troops into the customs, so that the entire Central Plains will be devastated, and hundreds of millions of Han people in the customs will die under the butcher's knives of foreign races.

Yangzhou 10th, Jiaxing three massacres, and later hair without head, there is no era in history because of hairstyles, so many people died.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the Qing government lost power and humiliated the country to the extreme.

From 1840 to 1905, more than 700 unequal treaties were signed between foreign powers and the Manchus, and 1.74 million square kilometers of China's territory were ceded, about the size of three Frances.

The total amount of silver in war reparations was 1.95 billion taels, a figure equivalent to 16 times China's treasury revenue in 1901. This is a world record set by the Qing government, but it is not a glorious record, but a shameful record.

It can be said that the Qing government did everything possible to lose power, humiliate the country, and harm the people, and its shameful process can be called the most shameful in history.

There is also the later Cixi Lafayette, she obeys the words of foreigners, and the compensation for the land is as refreshing as paying the bill, saying that the cut will be cut, and the compensation will be paid, and I will give as much as you want, according to her words, "measure the material resources of China, and form the joy of the country." ”

There is also the sentence "It is better to give to friends than to be slaves." "What fucking bullshit is this......

Although the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was more than a fucker in governing the country, in terms of integrity, it was much more backbone than the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

No land, no compensation, no ministers, no harmony, no tribute, the Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies. This is not a joke, even if the Ming Dynasty reached the end of the Ming Dynasty, the country was already leaking everywhere, and it was still not upside down.

By the time Li Zicheng broke through the city of Beijing, Chongzhen finally hanged himself in the coal mountain, and really achieved that the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the king died.

After separating from He Wenhai, Li Ming was still immersed in endless loss, he walked out of Beijing in a daze, until the sky was completely dark, Li Ming arrived at the outskirts of Beijing, opened the light door of the wormhole, and returned to modern society.

Li Ming, who returned home, sat in the courtyard and stayed all night without sleeping, the Ming Dynasty of that time and space was over, the endless natural disasters caused by the Xiaoice River period, the shameless land annexation of the gentry group, and a vicious wolf with a mouth full of fangs was hidden outside the pass.

If you take out any one, you can plunge a country into endless turmoil, but the Ming Dynasty has occupied every one, and it is difficult not to perish.

Thinking of this, the depressed Li Ming simply didn't think about it, just lived his own life, what did he do so much, and went back to the bedroom to sleep......
