"No, how can I be unhappy? You think too much. It's getting late. Go to bed quickly." After hearing Xue Pan's words, Xiao Han's body stiffened suddenly, but he returned to normal in an instant. , patted Xue Pan on the back and said.
Xue Pan did not answer, but just looked at Xiao Han steadily. It was not until a long time later that he wiped the tears that overflowed from his eyes, snuggled into his arms again, and nodded gently.
She knew that her husband was like this.
Even if there is a heavy burden of ten thousand pounds, he will bear it alone and will not complain to his family.
Late at night.
Gradually, even the chirping of insects in the corner became quieter.
As for the noisy cicada, it also screamed and flew away after a "boom" kick on the tree.
In the bedroom, Xue Pan was already asleep.
The moonlight shone in through the half-open window and fell on her beautiful face. There were scattered tears hanging on her long eyelashes, and she looked pitiful.
Xiao Han was not asleep yet. He lowered his head and kissed Xue Pan gently on the forehead. Then he rested his head on his arms and looked out of the window.
Outside, the crescent moon in the sky is still bright.
"Hey... those who know me say that I am worried, but those who do not know me say that what do I want?"
Xiao Han took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. Xiao Han never thought that this sentence would come true for him one day!
Once upon a time, his ambition was to marry a beautiful wife, then live in poverty and wait for death to deal with this for the rest of his life.
But as time went by, Xiao Han realized that he himself had become more and more integrated into the society of the Tang Dynasty.
He is no longer the duckweed-like outsider, but a real Tang Dynasty man of flesh and blood!
Here, there is his lover, his brother, and too many things that he wants to protect.
Therefore, he wants to change Datang!
He wants the Chinese nation to break out of the vicious cycle of three hundred years of reincarnation!
He wants Tang people to stand on top of the world forever, so that Tang people will no longer be bullied by others.
However, everyone can speak empty words!
What is truly rare is how to achieve it.
In the past, Xiao Han had also made a great wish: to free all craftsmen in the world from suffering.
Over the years, he has set an example for this and tried his best to improve the lives of those craftsmen. It can even be said that the Xiao family's craftsmen are definitely the happiest craftsmen in the world.
However, when a few years passed, Xiao Han looked back at others and realized that only the people under the Xiao family were able to escape the sea of suffering.
As for the other craftsmen, there seems to be no change from before. They are still poor and at the mercy of others.
It was from that moment that Xiao Han understood a truth: hard work does not necessarily mean success. If the method is wrong, no matter how hard you try, there will be no effect.
After seeing this clearly, Xiao Han thought about it for a long time, and finally realized:
The Tang Dynasty wanted to be stronger, the people of the Tang Dynasty wanted to be richer, and the craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty wanted to get rid of their miserable fate.
It’s impossible to just rely on the step-by-step progress we are seeing!
It must rely on other changes, a radical change, in order to accomplish what he has in mind.
And this change is the business society!
Because booming business will not only bring money, but also promote the growth of all walks of life, including those at the bottom of the craftsman family, and on the other hand improve everyone's thoughts and lives.
Therefore, he would acquiesce in Xiao Li's almost astronomical profit figures.
This money is not only to help Datang survive the most difficult three years.
It was also to allow the emperor, who was the decision-maker, to also taste the sweetness brought by the fruit of commerce, so that when the world was at peace in the future, he would not do those stupid things that favored agriculture and suppressed commerce.
Xiao Han did all this very secretly.
He didn't tell anyone, even Xue Pan, even Old Man Hua, he still didn't reveal anything. It wasn't that he couldn't trust others, it was just that the matter was too involved.
Because the birth of a commercial society will not only give birth to countless new things, but also give birth to another thing.
And this kind of thing is never allowed to be seen by the emperor. Even a wise person like Xiao Lizi will not hesitate to swing the butcher's knife when he discovers this sign, burying everything in Xiao Han's dream. .
The purpose has been determined.
The next thing Xiao Han did was to complete it.
Choosing Yangzhou wasn't something he decided on a whim or a snap of his head, but he actually thought about it for a long time before choosing it.
The perspective brought by later generations made Xiao Han very clear that if he wanted to develop business, without suitable soil, everything would be in vain.
Obviously, Chang'an cannot meet Xiao Han's requirements.
Countless rules and regulations have completely imprisoned people's hands and feet.
Not to mention that the Guanzhong people have another thing that gives Xiao Han a huge headache, and that is their firm attachment to the land.
Those Guanzhong people would rather guard the poor land that cannot produce a few kilograms of food all year round than work in a workshop. Even if they make more money from working in a year than from farming in three years!
Fortunately, this is very different in Yangzhou.
A relatively free market, nights without curfews, a lot of idle labor force, and already very active businesses.
All of this made Xiao Han extremely happy, not to mention that he could get another Mo family here.
When he thought of the Mo family, Xiao Han couldn't help but get excited.
Yin Can's appearance suddenly reminded him of a sentence he heard a long time ago:
When you move forward firmly towards your goal, God will be there to help you!
And the Mo family is undoubtedly the help sent by God to help Xiao Han achieve his goal!
For Xiao Han, this sudden appearance of the Mo family not only has strong financial resources, but also has connections all over the world.
More importantly, there are countless novel ideas and many strange people in it.
It is Yin Can’s dream to start classes and teach students and spread Mohist ideas to the world!
As everyone knows, Xiao Han is more enthusiastic about this than him!
In this world where Confucianism is spread all over the world, all scholars have only one idea, and that is to cultivate their moral integrity, regulate their families, govern their country, and bring peace to the world!
But how many people can actually manage the country? How many people end up becoming such miserable scholars as Kong Yiji?
(These verses are a bit long-winded. Speaking of which, Coke still has a hatred for his inability to fight!
I am not criticizing Confucian culture, I just hate the sad idea of those rotten Confucian scholars who want to settle down with a small amount of money!
He put his swords and guns in his warehouse at every turn, put his horse in Nanshan, locked himself up, and lived his own small life. He never thought that the world would always move forward!
Later, when the enemy came again, they discovered that the horses placed in Nanshan had long since disappeared, and the swords and guns placed in the warehouse had long since rotted away. At this time, no matter what the words of the saint were said, there would be no trace of them. What works? )
