Fly into the sky and escape from the earth, move mountains and fill the sea.

These eight words made Zhang Zhixiang's eyes widen. He could not imagine that this was something that an individual could do. His level of cultivation was not that high...

After dinner, Zhang Yonghuan went to meditate.

Zhang Zhixiang went to stand outside the house and asked Da Fangfeng to help him correct his posture. However, after practicing for more than an hour, he could not stand for more than two minutes at a time. On the contrary, because of the soreness of his legs, he could not even maintain the stance.

I can no longer practice.

Although he was only a five-year-old child, this still made him a little frustrated.

Sitting outside with Fangfeng, he asked: "Dafangfeng, do I not have the talent for martial arts?"

Big Fangfeng nodded.

Wen Sheng said: "My uncle's muscles and bones are average and his personality is too gentle. He is not suitable for practicing martial arts, especially Bajiquan. Master Yonghuan should teach you Taijiquan."

Zhang Zhixiang thought for a moment and realized his fourth uncle's painstaking efforts.

His character is actually a bit cowardly. After all, he was not in good health in his previous life and did not like and was afraid of arguing with others. Although he is more cheerful in this life, he is still not tough enough.

"Bajiquan is very good."

Originally planning to rest, Zhang Zhixiang gritted his teeth and stood up, tremblingly putting on a boxing stance. He had already gone down the mountain, and he should have his own responsibilities after entering this world.

Da Fangfeng looked at Zhang Zhixiang with a hint of approval in his eyes.

Suddenly, his ears twitched slightly, and he turned his head and glanced diagonally upward. The little porcelain doll-like girl was shocked for a moment and then closed the window.

"Discovered?"

Wang Yuanzhi was settling accounts and asked with a smile when he saw his daughter's panic.

The little girl is wearing a white dress and a red dress. She is as beautiful as a snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains. Her outfit today actually shows she has restrained her aura. As the only daughter of Wang Yuanzhi and the only daughter of this generation of the Wang family, she never has to accommodate others.

.

This time, she was brought out by her father specifically just to make friends with a young Taoist priest. She didn't quite understand.

"It was the giant who discovered me."

"father."

"Is he a martial artist in Er Shun realm?"

Wang Yuanzhi added some ink and said while taking notes: "At least it wasn't the case when he came down the mountain two years ago, otherwise the third son of the Xu family would have been dead."

"The Xu family is not very particular about business, and they join the Sluo people in the slave trade."

"Ten years ago, they attacked several tribes of the Cherokee people and captured a group of female slaves, including the tribe of Big Parsnip. Because of their giant size, they thought they were worth more, so they planned to transport them back and sell them."

"In the end, he escaped by chance and was taken in by the Tianshi Mansion."

"Trouble will naturally come."

"Five years ago, Dafangfeng started going down the mountain. He sought revenge from the Xu family three times in total. Two years ago was the closest to success. Xu Laosan, who was in charge of the Shangzhou slave trade, was killed ten steps in front of him."

"It's said to be ten steps, but for a big fangfeng, it's only two steps."

"In the end, I was stopped by the Xu family's chief minister."

Wang Jiangque nodded as if he understood, and suddenly said: "Dad, that person is quite stupid."

Wang Yuanzhi smiled softly and said: "The information received is not surprising. The great eunuch Huang Jin went to Longhu Mountain to issue the decree. While waiting for the ashes of Jia Guan, he saw that Zhang Zhixiang has no cultivation but is as good as heaven and earth."

"Walking out of the pavilion, you can avoid the wind and snow."

"This is a fairy scene."

Wang Jiangque didn't take it seriously. She was born smart. Although she was only seven years old, she matured much earlier than the average child. What she didn't understand was why her father valued this person so much.

"Times have changed, dad. Giants like Fangfeng are no match for firearms, so what can you do no matter how high your cultivation level is?"

"Times have certainly changed."

Wang Yuanzhi closed the account book and said solemnly: "There are rumors from the Tianshi Mansion, and other monks have corroborated it, that there was a great heat before the great cold, and next is the era of immortal cultivators."

"Individual power can reach levels we cannot even imagine."

"Our Wang family certainly doesn't need you for marriage, but over the years I have always wanted to show you the world's heroes so that you can choose for yourself."

"Today I will show you the first one and the most suitable one."

"You might as well take a closer look before making a decision."

Wang Jiangque nodded and said "Oh", but there was no follow-up. Although she was precocious, she was still young after all, so she didn't care much about these things.

What she always cared about was her father's attitude.

Her father cared too much about Zhang Zhixiang. She knew her father's vision. The rise of the Wang family only took place in the past twenty years. The uncle and her father built a huge family business from scratch.

Starting from ginseng, he became a wealthy businessman in the pharmaceutical industry, and then branched out into hundreds of industries.

They can't even calculate how rich the Wang family is. The amount of silver that the imperial court currently counts as tax revenue in Taicang is only more than two million taels a year. The Wang family's 2,000-ton sea-going ship travels to Beishangzhou once, and the ginseng they bring back is worth

There are tens of millions of taels. Although they only go back and forth every two years to receive goods, the Wang family is not only in the ginseng business.

In the past few years, the price of ginseng products has been adjusted. The price of ginseng has gone from 1 cent and 5 cents of silver per catty in the first year of Jiajing to 3 taels of silver per catty, but it is still not enough. You can't make much money simply selling ginseng.

But it is enough to make ginseng into a supplement for health and cure diseases and sell it.

The Wang family's annual income is tens of millions of taels, and the total family assets are incalculable.

Relatively speaking, although the Imperial Household Department's Taicang deposit was less than one-tenth of the actual tax, plus materials and other things, the Ming Dynasty could actually have an actual fiscal revenue of 70 to 80 million taels a year.

But the court only had so much money at its disposal.

The Wang family is actually much richer than the emperor...

The Wang family is so rich, but they are still just an upstart Huizhou merchant, ranking last among the four major Huizhou merchants.

Xu, Wang, Wu, Wang.

Which of these four families does not have an annual revenue of tens of millions of taels? Among them, the Xu family controls the armed hegemony of the entire Southeast China Sea. More than 100,000 pirates are under the control of the Xu family. I don’t know how much tolls are collected every year. The global slave trade is huge.

Households accounted for 40%.

That is the real country with incredible wealth.

The Portuguese and Spanish were digging for gold and silver all over the world every year, but in the end they still came to the Ming Dynasty to buy goods? The Ming Dynasty received hundreds of millions of silver inflows every year, but the court was so poor that the sea ban was banned for so many years, and it was completely out of control in Jiangnan.

.

The two capitals of the Ming Dynasty.

Shuntian Mansion belongs to the imperial court, and Yingtian Mansion belongs to merchants...

After Emperor Zhengde rebelled against King Ning, why did he insist on asking Wang Yangming to release the captured King Ning and arrest him again? Why? He didn't want to play, he wanted to lead his army to sweep across the south of the Yangtze River.

What happens in the end?

Naturally, he was suppressed by civil and military officials, and then Emperor Zhengde forcibly patrolled south to check the accounts of Yingtian Mansion. As a result, he could not even enter the palace, so he had to live in the eunuch's house. When he went fishing, he fell into the water. He made an appointment with Wang Yangming and

Yang Yiqing fell into the water again after talking in secret for three days, and was then forcibly taken back to Shuntian Mansion for treatment. He couldn't change doctors even if he wanted to, so he was forced to die...

Emperor? What is an emperor?

Start from reality.

In fact, the Wang family didn't have much respect for the imperial power, and they had no plans to send their daughter to the palace. They didn't look down on the position of the queen at all. After all, the world is so big, and the Ming Dynasty only had so much land.

If one is willing to go overseas to cultivate wasteland, it is not impossible to occupy thousands of miles of land.

But that doesn't make sense.

There is no bottom line in the cruelty of Xiluo people. They are robbing slaves to plant and mine the land all over the world. All they earn is hard-earned money. The materials they produce and the gold and silver they dig have to be transported to the Ming Dynasty? Which market in the world is there?

Is it possible to digest so much?

In the final analysis, the Shiluo people had no choice.

They were doing business normally and couldn't make any money in Shangzhou, so they had no choice but to rob, but the effect was limited. Although most of the Yin Di'an people were loose tribes, there were also some from several countries, such as Maya, Aztec,

The Incas had a huge amount of wealth.

It's a pity that the Shiro people can't defeat them...

In other words, the progress of the war was very anxious. The people of Xiluo could only drool at the massive amount of gold and silver possessed by the Yin Di'an people, while the Ming caravans returned with full loads again and again.

The wildness and freedom of global trade, the explosion of wealth. No matter what Wang Jiangque thinks, this is the era of businessmen.

But why did Dad say it was the age of immortal cultivators?

He is obviously just a dull little Taoist priest...
