Mo Zhinian suddenly looked up and asked, "If the profit generated by the Chamber of Commerce is regarded as a cake made, and the cake is worth 10%, then ten people can get ten points. But if you give a score of 100 people, each person will be one point. Are you right?"

"Yes." Wu Zheng sighed. This is not a matter of simple trading. So he explained, "But Mo Lao had thought about whether these ten people share a cake, and the remaining ninety people were eyeing each other. How much money would the ten people share the cake to recruit guards to prevent these ninety people from grabbing the cake? Financial resources, material resources, and energy can all be regarded as profit. But on the other hand, if these ninety people are accommodated, there will be a hundred people sharing the risk. If someone comes to grab it, then the ninety people will defend their vested interests more firmly than the top ten people."

Mo said obsessively: "But the cake is so big..."

Wu Zheng snorted coldly and said, "My old man is stubborn... Who told you that cakes are so big? Ten people can make cakes that are big on the table, and one hundred people can make cakes that are big on the house. Tens of thousands of people can make the world."

Mo Zhengnian was like being bombarded by thunder. At this moment, he finally understood what Wu Zheng meant. This matter must be viewed from Zhengzhi's perspective in order to truly understand it, rather than simply operating.

"Thank you for your advice, I finally understand."

Wu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Mo Zhinian was a smart person, otherwise, he would be really... too tired.

"Old Mo, there is one thing you have to remember." Wu Zheng said leisurely when Mo Zheng said Mo Yuenian's retreat, "Don't pull some of the cakes into the chamber of commerce while thinking about smashing the pot."

Mozunnian felt a stern heart and hurriedly replied: "I remember it."

What is puzzled is that during this almost two-hour conversation, the two of them did not mention the marriage that they had to take action from beginning to end.

It seems that this thing does not exist, and it has never happened.

They are all smart people. Smart people know what to mention, but nothing is useless. Since it is useless, you might as well not mention it.

....

North of Yingtian Prefecture.

Longtan, the navy station.

Wang Zhiren cursed.

He was scolding the court, the emperor, and Wu Zheng.

The personal guards around the military tent chose to become deaf. The general's tent formed a wall of people, and no one was allowed to approach one mile away.

Wang Zhiren had reason to be angry because the news he had just received not only did the Qing army take back Yizhen, but also detoured an army of 5,000 people and approached Enzhou.

What does this mean?

It means that the retreat route of the Ming army in Jiangdu was cut off and surrounded by the Qing army. Not only was it unable to return to Yizhen, but the retreat route to the south was cut off by the Qing army.

It is really impossible to blame the Qing army for being shameless and destroying the armistice treaty.

According to the armistice agreement signed by Chen Zilong and Hong Chengchou, the Ming army should have evacuated Jiangdu and returned to the south bank seven days ago.

But the problem is, Wang Zhiren is unwilling to give up.

He was also loyal to Wang Zhiren. He abandoned Wu Zheng and supported Zhu Cilang. Wu Zheng returned the tax rights of the three palaces. Wang Zhiren returned it without saying a word, although his heart was like a knife.

If you say that Wang Zhiren is unrighteous, he is also righteous. At least Wu Zheng asked him to train the new army on his behalf, and Wang Zhiren took the initiative to return all the money spent by Wu Zheng, and even paid tens of thousands of taels of interest. At least the Zhoushan Navy broke away from Wang Zhiren and went south to build, and Wang Zhiren did not maliciously block it. At most, he intercepted several "small boats".

Therefore, Wang Zhiren believed that he was loyal and righteous, loyal and righteous.

However, as a head coach, Wang Zhiren needs to consider a lot.

For example, if he secretly instructed He Laosan to incite the Ming army in Jiangdu to resolutely refuse to retreat, it was not that Wang Zhiren really wanted to fight against the court, and of course he would not have wanted to insist on the Northern Expedition and compete with the Qing army.

Wang Zhiren just wanted to use Jiang to avoid withdrawing as a bargaining chip to bargain with the court.

He is different from Wu Zheng. He lost the taxes of the three governments and basically removed one of his arms.

But what Wang Zhiren didn't expect was that the court became more and more aggressive and even had to get involved in commercial taxation.

What's even more annoying is that the boy from Hangzhou not only easily returned the tax, but also agreed to the court to get a piece of the business tax, which was equivalent to removing his other arm.

How could Wang Zhiren not scold her?

What's more annoying is that the Qing army took advantage of the situation and actually wanted to encircle Jiangdu. If these ten thousand naval divisions were annihilated, Wang Zhiren would lose nearly half of his troops.

This is an irreversible disaster for Wang Zhiren.

But Wang Zhiren could not speak clearly to the court and asked for support, because the navy was still in the river and refused to retreat, which was a disobedience.

Wang Zhiren was anxious and sent someone to order Wang Yilin to retreat while the Qing army had not yet been closed. At the same time, he sent an urgent task to Hangzhou Prefecture to seek help from Wu, hoping that the Zhoushan Navy would go north quickly just in case.

He began to assemble the Nanban Navy and prepared to pick up Wang Yilin's troops on the river to return south.

....

Wang Zhiren didn't know that his order to withdraw troops was equivalent to directly igniting the anger of the Ming army in Jiangdu.

In Wang Zhiren's view, the brief civil unrest that broke out in the capital before was not a big deal.

It is not uncommon to arrears of food and wages from the end of the Ming Dynasty to the present.

Even the salary of officials can be delayed for more than half a year, and it is even more impossible to owe the pensions of soldiers.

Although Wang Zhiren also sympathized with the families of the fallen soldiers, he did not object to the court's arrears.

At least the court always paid a part of the pension.

Therefore, Wang Zhiren did not pay attention to the consequences of this matter.

But what he didn't know was that the impact of this matter was far beyond his imagination. It was not only for the Jingwei and the Nan'an Navy, but the biggest influence was the Jiangdu army, which was confronting the enemy.

....

Before Qian Sudian left Jiangdu and returned to Beijing, he entrusted hundreds of remnants of the Beijing-Guangzhou guards who survived the bloody battle to Wang Yilin.

In order to make Qian Sudian take the blame for his remnant, Wang Yilin also respected the remnants, so he agreed to take care of Qian Sudian, and promised to organize the hundreds of people into a battalion alone.

But Wang Yilin was careless after all, and he did not do this immediately.

In Wang Yilin's opinion, the army will eventually be withdrawn. The court has signed a truce treaty, so this battle cannot be fought.

Anyway, it's only a few days, why bother to do this in one go?

In addition to these hundreds of surviving soldiers of the Beijing Guard, the military discipline is also strict.

Therefore, under the instigation of He Laosan, Wang Yilin agreed to stay in Jiangdu and was busy strengthening the city defense.

Slowly, I forgot about this.

There was no war, and in the same city, the soldiers and soldiers were from Jiangnan. Seven or eight out of these people were fellow villagers, and they could even find people from the same county, township, and village, and those who could call their nicknames.

This kind of interaction between each other is normal, so naturally it will not be restricted.

But when the people in the capital were in chaos, the families of the fallen soldiers were bullied, and the pension was replaced by white slips, the matter gradually became abnormal.

Any soldier fighting outside will feel resentful when he hears this news.

And this can definitely be a reason to connect everyone.

At this time, Wang Zhiren's retreat order was equivalent to giving the soldiers the reason for the uprising.

Because once it is withdrawn from the south bank, under the suppression of Wang Zhiren and the court, if you want to do something, you will have no chance.
