Everyone has instinct.
For example, if an arrow is suddenly shot in the face or a knife is struck, turning one's head to avoid or waving one's arms to block it are all instinctive reactions.
Huang Yi's anti-stab jacket was too soft. No matter what he blocked with his arms, it would be very painful. He could also break his bones if he suffered a heavy blow.
Equipped with the Iron Arm Hand, you can maximize your instincts.
Huang Yi also wore cotton armor. This cotton armor was not ripped from a corpse. It was a brand new pair of cotton armor that Xiaohong and Xiaocui found in the Kachagute yurt.
It's getting colder and colder.
Although Huang Yi is now strong and relatively cold-resistant.
However, stab-proof underwear, jackets, sheepskin plackets, and bulletproof vests are not enough to withstand the severe cold of more than ten degrees below zero.
After putting on the cotton armor on the outside, not only was he no longer cold, but no one could tell that Huang Yi did not belong to this era.
Because Huang Yi's hair has grown long enough to be pulled into a bun.
Of course, Huang Yi doesn't know how to put his hair into a bun at all, so Xiao Hong and Xiao Cui take care of him.
Outside the mouth is a savage land, well-equipped, and it is necessary to make others difficult to mess with at a glance.
Anyway, Huang Yi took a few people for a walk and didn't see anyone coming to provoke them.
Any Han Chinese who are able to do business in places outside their hometown are not ordinary people.
Huang Yi, one of the eight traitorous Shanxi merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, does not remember all of them. He only remembers Fan Yongdou, Wang Dengku, and Jin Liangyu. If he wants to understand clearly, he has to read the information downloaded on his mobile phone.
So when he saw the shops of the Fan, Wang, and Jin families, he didn't go in to discuss business. He saw the Li family's store and then walked in, because none of the eight traitor Shanxi merchants in his memory were surnamed Li.
The whole tribe's cattle, sheep, horses, and leather goods were negotiated and bartered by Hedanbaat'er, and it was not Huang Yi's turn to worry about it.
Huang Yi's plan was to spend gold and silver to buy some firearms and food, and find buyers for seven heads of slaves and more than forty heads of Tatars.
He sighed inwardly that he didn't have the status of a high-ranking official or a low-level military officer.
Otherwise, these heads can be upgraded to three levels in a row, and actual duties can definitely be upgraded to two levels.
The feudal dynasty is not comparable to later generations.
If you want to develop without an official background, it will be difficult to make progress.
"The magistrate who confiscates the family, the magistrate who exterminates the family." is by no means sensational.
Having money, territory, and population, no official background, and no force as a guarantee is the way to death.
Therefore, while Huang Yi was seeking force, he was also thinking about how to obtain an official position in the Ming Dynasty.
Selling the heads of slaves was an attempt.
In the future, they will definitely compete for territory, population, and food. If they encounter the slaves, they will definitely fight against them.
There will be many more heads of Tatars and Jiannu.
With Huang Yi's level of ancient writing, it was absolutely impossible to pass the imperial examination and become an official. He could only seek a military position by relying on beheading skills.
Even if it is a single guard station with hundreds or thousands of households, it can be accepted.
In the Ming Dynasty, the civil servants were noble and the military officials were inferior. When military generals saw civil servants of the same grade or even lower grades, they had to kneel down and call themselves subordinates.
However, things must be reversed when extremes occur. By the end of the Chongzhen Dynasty and the Southern Ming Dynasty, military generals killing civil servants were like killing chickens.
Therefore, as long as Huang Yi has an official position, he doesn't mind whether it is a civil servant or a military commander. If he can avoid castration, he can also consider giving him a eunuch.
well! Huang Yi needs force, power, financial resources, material resources, and manpower to gain a foothold, and it is inconvenient not to have an official position.
As long as there is a relatively safe site that can establish a foothold, Huang Yi can start golden finger steelmaking.
During the Ming Dynasty, the Han people's smelting technology led the world, but due to the furnace temperature, the molten steel could not be completely melted. It was all semi-crystalline, so the quality of the steel could not be greatly improved.
Huang Yi knew the air temperature technology. This golden finger could break through the bottleneck of the maximum temperature of the steel furnace once opened.
Then use coke smelting to reduce the sulfur content in pig iron, and the quality of steel will be improved immediately. The production of relatively advanced flintlock guns and cast steel cannons will be the first step.
When you become an official in the Ming Dynasty, should you be loyal?
It’s a joke, Huang Yi is a modern man, he is really like “the prince of thousands of households in the age of shit”.
It is possible to be loyal to the country and the nation, but how can it be possible to be loyal to the family and the surname?
The world! The virtuous live there.
Forehead! This is just for fun.
Otherwise, how can we explain that the cruel, barbaric and ignorant Manchu Qing Dynasty gained thousands of miles of land of the Han people at their fingertips?
Could it be that the "virtue" of the Manchu chiefs inspired people all over the world?
Huang Yi's understanding is that the one with the big fist wins the world! Those who can kill and dare to kill will win the world!
The world is created by killing, not by blowing!
Therefore, he must find ways to have the strongest force.
In his previous life, Huang Yi had negotiated a lot of business, but when he came to Ming Dynasty, he really didn't know how to open his mouth.
If you don’t understand, just don’t do it cleverly and just go straight!
As soon as he entered the door of Li's shop, he loudly shouted that he wanted to see the manager, saying that he had a huge deal to discuss.
The six people in Huang Yi's group had all killed or beheaded people before, and they were so murderous that the man didn't dare to neglect them and ran to the back room in a hurry.
After a while, a steward about forty years old with a few long beards came out and asked: "This strong man invites you. My surname is Li. I wonder what a big deal this is?"
Huang Yi took out a gold-backed white flag and armored man's waist badge and handed it to the steward who claimed to be surnamed Li, and asked:
"Does your family dare to take the head of a slave?"
Collusion between officials and businessmen has existed throughout the history of civilization, and the same is true in 2021. The collusion between officials and businessmen in the last Ming Dynasty was even more extreme!
Too many merchants are actually spokespersons for officials, nobles, relatives of the emperor, and eunuchs.
How can any businessman outside the country these days not know what it means to have the head of a slave?
Huang Yi already knew that it was the second year of Chongzhen. In his memory, the first time the slaves invaded the invaders was at the end of the year. He guessed that the Jurchens, who were short of food, should be dispatching troops after finishing their autumn harvest.
At this time, Jiannu had not yet entered the customs. Perhaps he had, but the news had not yet reached Guihua City.
Hu Duntu, Lin Danhan, is not dead yet, and Guihua City is completely within his sphere of influence.
Lin Dan Khan originally exchanged the heads of slaves for rewards from the Ming Dynasty, and extorted a lot of cloth and grain from the Ming Dynasty every year.
Merchants were only interested in profit, and all the big merchants in the feudal dynasty had a protective umbrella. Nine out of ten merchants who were able to do business outside the country had an interest relationship with the frontier generals.
The heads of Jiannu and Tatars could not only be exchanged for silver rewards, but also served as a promotion ladder for civil servants and military officers.
How could a merchant not buy it when he found a source of goods?
If this one is too timid to do the head business, then try the next one.
Facts have proved that those who do business outside the Great Wall are not timid. Manager Li took the copper waist badge and looked at it carefully.
He knew that the military discipline of establishing slaves was strict, and he knew that the badges of Eight Banners soldiers must be carried at all times, and losing them is a serious crime.
Since the well-armed man in front of him has the card of building a slave, his head should not be faked.
He immediately put on a smile and invited Huang Yi to talk inside.
