The relationship between the Chinese and the Manchus is very awkward. International law recognizes the two as independent countries, but their economic relations are heavily dependent on each other.
The Chinese needed the huge territorial resources and labor force of the Qing Dynasty, and the huge market brought by the population!
What the Qing Dynasty needs is the gateway role of the Chinese and the support of strong financial industry, science and technology, etc.!
They hate each other and are wary of each other, and no one can do without the other. This entangled relationship may have only one final result, and that is the east annexing the west wind, or the west eating the east wind!
But it can only be annexed, but it is absolutely impossible to destroy. This is already a certainty! Many people always look at problems with the old minds of past dynasty changes.
Always wanting to smash and destroy everything and then swallow the residue everywhere, this is not smart!
You have to destroy everything of the enemy and finally inherit the ruins of the land. This is a game that often appeared in the ancient feudal farming civilization era, because the greatest wealth in that era was land!
You cleanse all the people, government, institutions, and culture of a country...and then copy your own style, and continue to make money simply and crudely.
The new era is not like this at all. It has entered the second industrial revolution. The big tree of science and technology has begun to have too many branches!
Politicians, business elites, scientists, philosophers... these smart people in the human world have all understood the future of world trends!
That is, in the future of this earth, unless it is a super large country, no country will be able to form an industrial chain with a full technology tree!
This industrial chain is very complete and smooth from scientific research, production, scale, efficiency, logistics, marketing... an industrial chain!
You may be able to ensure that one chain is perfect, but can you ensure that all the chains in the technology tree are perfect? This is basically an impossible task.
Humanity is about to enter an era that requires deep cooperation to survive, and the seeds have already appeared!
The Qing Dynasty and the Chinese are destined not to follow the old path of mutual destruction and then annexation like the feudal dynasties in the past, because the advantages and disadvantages of the two countries do not overlap!
I need your things, and you need mine. If the Qing Dynasty annexes the Chinese, will it be the same as when it first entered the country two hundred years ago?
Kill them all, rob them all, and encircle them all... and then get a group of people who don't know anything and don't know how to engage in scientific research and finance? Go for dark blue navy?
It's unrealistic. If he follows the old path of two hundred years ago, the final result will be a bunch of deserted islands without human habitation, and nothing of value will be left!
Of course, if the Chinese annex the Manchus to the Qing Dynasty, they will not follow the old path of destruction, because the Qing Empire is too big and you cannot kill all the non-Han ethnic groups!
The first one is that you don’t have the strength, and the second one is that you can’t withstand the intervention of global powers after the massacre!
Then the result of violent destruction must be that the territory of the Qing Empire is torn apart. You Chinese people guard the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the top of the sky is the Northern Song Dynasty.
The human world has entered an era of extreme responsibility, and conflicts between countries are no longer understandable to ordinary people!
Open up the territory and expand the territory, kill all the dead, leave the land but not the people? People who have this kind of thinking are actually a group of people who are stuck in the agricultural era, unable to get out, and have been eliminated by the times!
"Zaichun! My child, the master telling you all this proves that the master still loves you! The master did not deceive you, but exposed his spiritual world and told you the truth of this world!"
"Are you depressed because of the appearance of this younger brother, Fu Yin'er? Do you think the master has been deceiving you and using you as a tool?"
"If you really understood what I said above, I don't think you would think this way!"
Xiao Letian did not directly explain to Zai Chun what the stock market was. Instead, in a thick secret letter, he clearly explained their master-disciple relationship and their true relationship with the Chinese Qing Dynasty!
Of course there is competition. The head of state will not deny that at a certain point in the future, the Chinese people and the Qing Empire will merge. After all, they are of the same culture and species!
But what kind of integration will it be? Is it the kind where the Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty, or the kind where the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains?
It is understandable that ordinary people have this idea of conquering cities and territories, because they have been exposed to this kind of cultural education since childhood!
But you are the emperor of the Qing Empire and you are the person at the top of the pyramid. Don’t you have your eyes on the future development of the human world? Are you too stubborn and unwilling to make progress?
We must look at problems and competition from a developmental perspective!
In the future world, who will lose and who will win? You have to look at your own abilities and who can stay on top of the trend, not who can kill everyone!
"Child... you must always remember that no one can fully climb all the technology trees and develop every industry extended by technology to perfection!"
"The Chinese can't do it, and your Qing Empire can't do it even more!"
"I know you have dreamed of annexing the Chinese by force more than once, but kid, that is just a dream! Even if you succeed, you can annex the Chinese territory by force!"
"Can you copy the Chinese scientific research system? Can you establish it?"
"Can you learn to build a dark blue navy? Do you know how many ways there are?"
"Can you really understand what finance is? You still don't even know where the value-added money for the Beijing-Tianjin Railway comes from. Do you think you can engage in finance?"
"Child... you can dream, but you must see the reality clearly! When the gap in strength between you is too big, you should not have delusions, but grit your teeth and move forward!"
"Kid, you are still young! Your biggest advantage is this. You have more time than me, and you are younger than all the politicians in the world now!"
"This is a gift from God to you, you must cherish it!"
"Child! There are two roads in front of you, you choose it yourself! The first is to walk the path of destruction, prepare your army for war, and accumulate strength!"
"You engage in industrialization, you engage in military industry, you engage in alliances with Europa, and you build a powerful army!"
"Then fire at me, Master! Launch a full-scale attack on the Chinese! If you choose this path, then there is no need for you to look at the answers to the financial stock market!"
"It's better to burn all the secret messages I have behind you!"
"But if you think that in the future, the relationship between the Chinese and the Qing Dynasty will be annexation and integration, then our masters and disciples can enter the game in the second half of life!"
"Let's see who does a good job in the end, and who can annex and fuse whom!"
"The choice is in your hands, child...make the decision!"
After Zai Chun read the first half of the secret letter, it was like a huge, deeply hidden scar in his heart that his master had just opened up!
It hurts bloody, purple blood spurts out, it's painful but very satisfying!
Because he knows that if these congestions are not detoxified, this hidden injury will never heal!
Zai Chun's tears fell so hard that the edge of the typed letter was lost. "It turns out... the master has not abandoned me... he is still willing to tell me the truth!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Master is still willing to say something heartfelt to me!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Master... Do you know how difficult it is to hear the truth from the bottom of your heart after becoming the emperor?"
Zai Chun couldn't control his emotions and burst into tears for a while!
