If Almansa was sober, she would not make such a request to Chen Mu.

He just learned an idiom in Changsheng, called "Striving with Hu".

However, Chen Mu agreed very sincerely.

He is indeed sincere.

A person’s decisions are often related to his position. Chen Mu’s identity determines his position. The decisions should be considered based on the pros and cons of the Ming Dynasty or China’s future.

If war is necessary, he will take his ancestors to the end of the world. No treaty or any constraints are useful. It is not because Chen Mu has no spirit of contract, but his view on contract is different from that of ordinary people.

"Only the weak will regard the treaty as a constraint on the strong. The strong use false constraints to provide the weak with a false sense of security to achieve what they want, which is the contract between countries. Human beings have always been barbaric and have never changed."

Zou Yuanbiao looked much better, but he was still so unwilling to Chen Mu. The magistrate curled his lips and whispered to Zhao Shizhen: "The great man is not good!"

Chen Mu sobered up, Almansa was already on the road, and everyone was talking about Almansa's "script". Since it was just a chat, let alone Zou Yuanbiao, it was normal to speak without any restraint.

"Speak loudly!"

Chen Mu looked at Zou Shouzi angrily and reached out and said, "Virtue, virtue is very important, justice is also very important. The satisfaction brought by noble personality is even more important, but in the face of war, we must take a step back."

As he said that, Chen Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at Zou Yuanbiao and asked, "Who is justice in this war between Ming and Xi?"

Yang Tingxiang wanted to speak but stopped, so he listened to Zou Yuanbiao: "It's true to me! Westerners do not love the scholars and the people based on this place. They impose heavy taxes and even the people are resentful. Only when the heavens are angry and people are resentful can our heavenly army cross the east and uphold justice!"

Zou Yuanbiao's words were passionate, and Chen Mu almost felt that it was true, but he shook his head and said, "It's fine to fool the enemy in the manifesto. Do you really think so?"

"If it's not for me..." Zou Yuanbiao's face looked ugly, "Can it be still in the Westerners?"

Chen Mu curled his lips and said, "I am from the Ming Dynasty. In my opinion, justice is naturally in the Ming Dynasty. Bernard is a Spanish. In his opinion, justice is naturally in Spain. But everyone has forgotten that we are all outsiders. The justice of this war should be held in the hands of the natives. Why do we step on other people's land but we can't feel their existence?"

Chen Mu thought he was logical, so he paused to wait for the effect of shocking the crowd. However, he saw that Zou Yuanbiao seemed to be normal, and blinked as if he was still waiting for Chen Mu to say the following words. Seeing that he had disappeared, he said without even thinking about it: "Yes, justice lies with the local people, the local people are in the heavenly dynasty, justice is still with me!"

Now it was Chen Mu's turn to be stunned. The key to the problem is that what Zou Yuanbiao said... seems to make sense.

Suddenly he realized that he had already entered the strengths of Zou Yuanbiao's bickering. He simply skipped the topic and said, "In the final analysis, it depends on whether the fist is big or not, and it has nothing to do with virtue. Only with a tough Arhat arm can one be worthy of the compassionate heart of a Bodhisattva."

"I said before going to sea that our cause may not be just, and this will be left to future generations to comment, but I know that even if future generations say that we are full of evil deeds, they will secretly thank us in their hearts."

"Morality is not important. It is enough to be able to keep the foundation of being a human being from morality and greed and draw a bottom line."

Chen Mu's hypocrisy influenced every move. He knew that in the world where the Ming Dynasty did not go out to sea again, what would happen to the countries that carried out unjust wars in this era in the future to the world colonized countries.

What is disappointing is that God's punishment has not arrived for a long time, and they have been doing well for hundreds of years since then.

When you are strong, you are stronger than anyone else. Even if you decline, self-protection is still not a problem. People live a comfortable life. If you have money, you can climb the technology tree. If you don’t have enough smart people, hire your smart people to climb over and take the lead step by step.

Even if you have no money, you can still play some art, after all, this thing is small.

Human beings have always been barbaric. If this creature becomes civilized, it is not that it is really civilized, but civilization is more beneficial to him. Once the environment is unfavorable, civilized people will quickly remove their coats and reveal their barbaric nature.

But Chen Mu did not intend to get involved in their evil activities.

Zou Yuanbiao looked at Chen Mu suspiciously and said, "The general really doesn't plan to send troops when the Western country threatens us? Just covering his head will damage the prestige of the country!"

It's a bad reputation.

"If you don't fight, it has nothing to do with agreeing to them or not. Who dares to become a mining prison in the Ming Dynasty after the Spanish left? Are you going?"

This is why Chen Mu is guarding the bottom line between morality and greed. He doesn't want to let someone dig, but there is always someone dig. It's either you dig, he dig or I dig. I don't want to dig, nor do I want to force you to endure hardships and accept dig. There are fewer others and not enough.

Let him force you to dig, I won’t hurt you, I will hurt him.

Chen Mu's logic is simple and crude, which can only reduce the guilt in his heart, but he shakes his head very firmly: "When the time comes, he will threaten him if he wants to make trouble. Who among us knows that the Ming Dynasty will not take this trick, it is what he said to the Spanish, and just let them play by themselves."

"When the time comes, Chen Bing's border will scare him to death!"

Chen Mu said jokingly, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, we will be relaxed in the situation for a while. The Western Kingdom will focus on Portugal, but we have a lot of work, so try our best."

"First of all, the ports of the five counties have been repaired, and all shipyards must be added. Changsheng must add three, two Jincheng, one each in Youjing and Jiexian. They can repair warships and build some small boats with less than 400 materials. Changsheng and Jincheng must be able to build warships."

As soon as Chen Mu spoke, everyone was working. This feeling was actually quite annoying. Zhao Shizhen still had a silly smile on his face, and suddenly he took out a small book to record it. After writing two lines, he realized and quickly put away the smile on his face.

"The second is the Military Weapon Bureau. Jincheng needs to set up armor casting workshops, gun making workshops and cannon casting workshops in places with rivers. There is nitride soil in Jincheng and busy boiling salt. There is sulfur in the south of Mexico City, and soon there will be gunpowder workshops."

Zou Yuanbiao bowed his hand and looked very tired, saying, "There are all gunpowder made by armor, cannons, gunpowder made by gunpowder, where are the great men?"

There are too few iron ore here. Not to mention the three iron-consuming workshops running, even blacksmiths can prepare farm tools and immigrate after they come.

"The court transported some of them first, and then let the Westerners send them. There are also ships. As long as the Western countries can afford the price, I can sell all the guns, cannons, warships to them."

Not to mention Zou Yuanbiao, even Yang Tingxiang's eyes changed. He hurriedly said, "Master, no, can you sell guns and cannons, but this warship is a powerful weapon for the country and cannot be sold. What if he buys it and hits me?"
