A person's character is half innate and half shaped by the environment, especially the experiences in childhood, adolescence, and youth, the people and things he encounters, and the books he reads and the truths he hears.
Together these will form a person's deep-rooted character!
Generally speaking, after the age of 18, people's three views are basically finalized. The older they get, the more deeply rooted they become!
If he doesn't encounter unforgettable stimulation, to a large extent he will not change his personality! This is especially true in the elderly.
He was extremely stubborn, because the three views he had spent his whole life establishing were so entangled that neither life nor death could change them, and the old man had no time to break and reshape his own three views.
So 90% of human beings leave this world with stubbornness!
Huniu's character was not formed in a day or two. She suffered too many injuries in her childhood, and there were too many childhood traumas!
Although she was born as a businessman and had no worries about food and drink, businessmen did not have much status at that time. She had seen the insult and exploitation of her father by society, especially the official class!
Huniu also suffered the humiliation of feudal ethics. Because the old shopkeeper Fan Jian loved her, she never had her feet bound, even after her mother died.
This caused her to be violently suppressed by the feudal ethics. The corrupt scholars headed by his uncle would beat and scold her at the slightest level. In serious cases, they even wanted to use Huniu's beauty as a stepping stone!
I have to admit that Huniu is still very beautiful and has big feet, so she has the temperament of the Manchu nobles, so Fan Ru has many times wanted to use Huniu as a doorkeeper and give it to Manchu nobles as a concubine. go.
Change the qualifications of the official businessman in the family!
Such horrific childhood memories had a huge impact on Huniu. There was always a terrible nightmare in her heart, and it would come out to scare her from time to time.
In many late-night nightmares, she did not meet Xiao Letian, and Xiao Letian did not appear in this world. In the late autumn of 1864, no accidents happened in the business roads deep in the Taihang Mountains.
If this is really the case, what will be the fate of Hu Niu? I'm afraid I won't be able to escape being occupied by Second Master Lian, or being tied up and sent to the inner house of a Manchu nobleman's family!
What next? The strong-willed tiger girl just lost her life, rope, scissors, well!
That is her true destiny, the true destiny that cannot be escaped!
And now Xiao Letian is here and has changed the fate of countless people, but he cannot heal the wounds in these people's hearts, especially their hatred for the Tartar group!
Because it is accumulated over the past twenty years of life, and it has condensed into a deep ego that cannot be broken!
It is easier to change the world than to change people's hearts. The sentient beings in Jambudvipa are so strong that it is difficult to change them!
Huniu took the telegraph newspaper and wanted to tear it into pieces, but after thinking about it, wasn't this the final evidence? Cai Bixia and Ermao will have pigtails in their hands from now on.
Huniu turned around and asked A Chou to lock up the telegraph newspaper, and then said to Ito, "You understand the current situation, right? The British have made it clear that they are giving the Japanese a platform!"
"Then the British fleet that is patrolling the world this time has come with bad intentions! If a war really breaks out, how do you think we should respond?"
"We must fight! We Chinese are not afraid of anyone, but we have to have a plan in how to fight!"
"In the future, when the prince asks you for advice, you must have something to say!"
Seeing that Mrs. Ito had made up her mind, she immediately bowed and said, "Hai... Madam is wise... This battle seems inevitable. With the support of the British, Guiziliu has become the de facto monarch of the Qing Dynasty!"
"His Majesty Emperor Tongzhi has suffered from this disease again, so he is unable to save his life! What we have to consider in the future is how to deal with Emperor Guangxu!"
"But Guiziliu will definitely not be willing to succumb to the Chinese, and he will definitely join forces with the British to try to challenge us!"
"This battle must be fought! If the prince asks about politics, my answer is to use war to promote talks!"
"Concentrate all the strength of our Chinese nation to fight the decisive battle with the British fleet in our favorable sea areas... Of course, the prerequisite is that the British must provoke first, and we have the truth!"
"Even if we draw a draw in this naval battle, or win a disastrous victory, the entire navy's vitality will be severely damaged... As long as the British bleed and feel pain! That's enough..."
"The next thing is for politicians to negotiate... If the prince trusts me and I am willing to be the diplomatic envoy, I will definitely sign a peace treaty with Britain!"
"As long as the negotiations with Britain are successful! The Chinese will have a safe opportunity to develop in the future. I dare not say if there are more, there will still be no problem in 50 years of peace!"
"Use war to promote talks?" Huniu thought carefully, "What if the British refuse to talk about life and death? Our navy's vitality is severely damaged. How will we resist the British invasion?"
"No! Madam, please rest assured, it won't happen!" Ito said quickly, "The British have a bourgeois system, which is a country's businessmen, and businessmen are very particular about not being able to do anything early!"
"As long as we give them commercial benefits, their determination to fight will not be firm! And the harder we fight, the greater their losses will be, which will make them decide that this war is not worth the gain!"
"There is a principle in doing business, which is to consider the ratio of input and output! If the war losses are too large, it means that the capital invested is too high, and the final profit will be smaller!"
"The British are all businessmen from one country, and they don't have any great ambitions. Madam, please rest assured!"
Is it true that none of the British people have great ambitions? Businessmen don’t, and politicians don’t? Huniu wasn't sure about this, but it sounded very reasonable.
"Okay! It's better not to fight if we can... If the British don't take the initiative to provoke, we will still give priority to tolerance!"
"You have to know that Fu Yin'er is still young after all. Even if he takes office, it will be more than ten years later... We have to create more or less fifteen years of peace for Fu Yin'er!"
"Fifteen years later, to protect Fu Yin'er's safe accession to the throne... my lifelong wish will be fulfilled!"
"Hai... Madam is wise, and my subordinates also think so..." Ito said humbly, "This is the truth. China has had examples of people who have worked hard to endure hardships since ancient times. This was the case when Wu and Yue were fighting for hegemony. Wen Jingzhi was the founder of the Han Dynasty. When treating it, the main thing is to be patient!"
"Without the forbearance of the two generations of emperors Wen and Jing, how could the great achievements of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty be achieved?"
"We, the direct descendants of the prince, want to share the prince's worries, protect the Chinese people from major problems, and ensure that the prince ascends the throne safely... We will lose some profits for the time being, let the British eat more, and change the time for a safer time!"
While the two were discussing, suddenly an attendant from outside hurriedly ran in, "Mrs. Keizhen... The financial markets in Jiangnan and Naha suddenly plummeted, and panic selling occurred in various stock markets. The index fell by 7%... …”
"Ah? What's the reason?"
"Suddenly various rumors were released in the market. The name of the British fleet cruising around the world has been decided...it's called the Great White Fleet!"
"There are rumors that...this...this is the fleet that will bring death to our Chinese race!"
