Chapter 273: Seeking stability and change (Part 1)

This man named Li Yunlong is not very prominent in appearance or temperament. His clothes are like other Chinese in Southeast Asia, and he brings some strange aura of combining things. However, when Xu Changqing looked at him carefully, he suddenly found that Li Yunlong is not simple. His appearance is just a small fortune in physiognomy, which means that his career and wealth limits are at most, that is, his fortune is to be rich. However, his fortune is completely different. He is for the hidden dragon in the nine earths, and the fate of the heavenly master, and this is the extremely noble appearance of the dragon and the tiger. In addition, there is a faint purple aura in his descendants. It can be seen that some descendants of this person will have a high position and a powerful position to achieve the fate of kings and princes.

Not only Xu Changqing could see Li Yunlong's strange face, but Guan Poming, who was standing beside him, also noticed the faint purple aura in Li Yunlong's descendant palace. Among the miscellaneous studies that Guan Poming learned from Sandao, there was also the study of observing qi and killing life. Although he was not very proficient, he was far from able to understand the subtleties and had a clear vision of the universe, but it was enough to look at Li Yunlong's face and luck.

Just when Guan Poming wanted to ask Li Yunlong's birth date and horoscope to further infer the origins and outs of this purple qi, Xu Changqing's cough interrupted it, which also made him realize that this was not a good place to ask such questions.

Xu Changqing's clear cough not only prevented Guan Poming, but also restored the chaotic room to its previous quietness. After seeing that everyone was quiet, Xu Changqing turned to look at Li Yunlong, signaled him to sit down, and then answered his previous question: "It is true that as Mr. Li said, an army is useless, and it is useless to eliminate all the natives. As long as the foreigners' attention is still focused on Southeast Asia, then the Chinese will never have a chance to make a comeback. But if the foreigners' attention is shifted to other places? Southeast Asia has become a useless piece of rib in the eyes of foreigners?"

"How is this possible?" Everyone made a lot of doubts, and Feng Jiusheng also frowned and reminded: "Sir, maybe I don't know how important Southeast Asia is in the minds of foreigners. Both east and west trade ships need to pass through Southeast Asian waters to circulate with each other. How could foreigners give up this important land?"

"Old benefactor, there is one thing you may have made a mistake." Xu Changqing had long expected everyone to be suspicious, so he smiled and explained: "The reason why foreigners attach importance to Southeast Asia is indeed because it is a key point of shipping, but this key point is only Malacca, not the entire Southeast Asia. As long as the Chinese in Southeast Asia do not touch the bottom line of Malacca, foreigners will have less resistance to things like establishing Chinese businessmen."

"It seems to make some sense." After hearing this, everyone nodded and began to discuss with each other in a low voice.

Xu Changqing did not speak immediately, but waited for the discussion of the crowd to decrease, and then continued: "Now there are constant disputes among European countries. Fighting between Britain, France, Germany, and Austro-Hungary Empires are increasing, and its surrounding countries are gradually getting involved. The whole Europe can be said to be full of wars and is about to break out. Looking at its great momentum, there will inevitably be a shocking war in Europe within five years, and then it will be the best time for Chinese businessmen to establish a country in Southeast Asia."

"What? Will a war break out in Europe?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then they showed doubts, obviously not very convinced by Xu Changqing's words.

Xu Changqing had no intention of explaining and continued: "Before the European War, you need to do it to gather all the Chinese in Southeast Asia, save and hide your strength. According to the method I mentioned before, use the struggle with the indigenous peoples to gradually gain real power over some islands and cities, and also train the Chinese army. When the European War begins, India and Annan can be provoked to rebel, attract all the joint troops of Britain and France in Asia to these two places, and then quickly eliminate all the indigenous peoples on the surrounding islands with thunder and completely control the Southeast Asian islands. At this time, show goodwill to Britain and France, establish a ruling body similar to the British parliamentary system, and express your willingness to manage some islands in Southeast Asia on behalf of Britain and France that are not valued by them. As long as you do this, even if you do not want to establish a country, Britain and France will try your best to promote this."

"What about the United States?" Li Yunlong stood up again, pointed to the United States that controls some of the Philippines, and said, "Will the United States be willing to let us establish a country under their noses?"

Xu Changqing nodded and said, "Of course they won't want to do it, but when the European War begins, their attention will be more focused on Europe. After all, most of the American immigrants come from Europe, and they will never miss this opportunity to interfere in European affairs. As for you, you only need to continue to deepen your relationship with the American political and business circles over the years, and suggest that they will establish a regime that tends to them. At that time, I believe that the United States will not only not become an obstacle, but may also become a helper. After all, they have been coveting trade in Southeast Asia for a long time, but they have been occupied by Britain and France, so they cannot get involved."

"What a skill of joining and joining each other! Mr., I want us to be Qin, get along with each other from a distance, and attack nearby, and take advantage of the conflicts between the great powers to gradually grow." An old man sitting beside Feng Jiusheng touched his beard and nodded, obviously he was attracted by Xu Changqing's plan. After thinking for a while, he looked up at Xu Changqing, stood up and folded his fists, and saluted: "I am Lin Yuan, chairman of the board of directors of Shengjing Trading Company in Singapore. How dare you ask the gentleman that a war is about to break out in Europe, is there any basis?"

"He is the elder of the outer hall of the Demon-Slaying Lin family." Just as the old man stood up, Guan Poming, who was standing by, used the secret technique to transmit voice to Xu Changqing.

After hearing this, Xu Changqing's face became more confused, because he could not feel any trace of cultivation from the old man. If the old man's cultivation had not reached the point of becoming an extraordinary saint, then the old man would not have any methods of cultivation at all.

Perhaps because he felt Xu Changqing's question, Lin Yuan explained: "Although I came from the Lin family, I know nothing about the Lin family's unique skills. I am just a secular person."
