Chapter 438 Hong Xiuquan: I must stand and take power in the future! (Please order and vote)
"Ninth brother, is the method you just mentioned really the intention of Heavenly Father?"
Hong Xiuquan still couldn't believe it. Isn't this Heavenly Father too sinister? Shouldn't the Heavenly Father be upright and aboveboard? Kneel out first, then cry and make trouble, and then stand straight up and beg for food. How could this be the case? What did your father do?
"Of course!" Luo Yaoguo said categorically, "Our Heavenly Father has always been like this! Heavenly King, isn't it written in the Old Testament of the Bible? How did Heavenly Father help the Jews deal with Egypt? How did those disasters come down? ?In order to achieve his goals, he doesn't care much about means. Brother Tian suffered the consequences for others, but it was just..." Halfway through his words, he seemed to realize that he had missed something. He quickly stopped and changed the subject and said: "By the way, later the Catholic Church How did our foreign brothers enter Rome? Didn't they kneel in? The Roman Empire was so awesome in those days, how could it be done without kneeling? Later, during the rise of Catholicism, how many times were they massacred by the Romans who did not believe in the Father? What happened in the early years of Christianity? Zong Ke was martyred, and his tears were shed a lot, right? And later on, did the Catholics in the West just stand begging for food?"
It seems like this is really the case!" Hong Xiuquan and Hong Rengan looked at each other. Both of them knew something about the "dark history" of Catholicism. After Luo Yaoguo talked about it, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense. But wasn't it first? He knelt down in Rome, rose up crying and made a fuss, and finally became famous in the West. In the final analysis, he still had to stand and beg for his life.
Luo Yaoguo saw Hong Xiuquan's thoughtful look on his face, struck while the iron was hot and continued to lie: "King of Heaven, if you think about your experience since you came to earth, is this the same routine? Heavenly Father did not let you be reincarnated into the home of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi to enjoy happiness. In the past years, it was common for you to endure hardships and hardships. When you failed the scholar examination, tears were shed, right? Look at it now..." He deliberately played it off, changed the topic, and stopped again.
Hong Xiuquan trembled in his heart, isn't it? I am not like a beggar now. Two million taels of silver a year seems like a lot, but in fact it is constrained everywhere! I seem to have been in such a drama along the way... …Now I’m really just standing around begging for food, it’s so frustrating!
Hong Xiuquan secretly thought: "It seems that Luo Yaoguo's method is really inherited from Heavenly Father! Heavenly Father's rebellion is very clever. I have to learn from Heavenly Father. Now that I can't defeat Luo Yaoguo, I will bow my head first! I will save it later." When I have enough strength, I will rise up crying and making noises. When the time comes, I will not only be begging for food, but I will also be asking for great power!"
Having made up his mind, Hong Xiuquan immediately became humble in his attitude towards Luo Yaoguo: "Ninth brother, tell me what you're going to do in the first step of 'getting out on your knees'?"
Luo Yaoguo waited for these words until the flowers withered. He immediately sat upright with a serious look on his face: "King of Heaven, we have to work together on this matter. One will be a good person and the other a bad person!" He knew very well in his heart that this evil man, He can't keep good people all by himself. If he first forces people to leave their homes and then makes people believe in him, that's nonsense! Besides, he has to switch back and forth between red and white faces.
Now he is acting as a villain, but in the future when the Chinese laborers sent by the True Treaty start crying and making trouble overseas, it will be Hong Xiuquan, a religious leader, who will act as a villain. Luo Yaoguo, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or the Taiping United States government cannot come forward, otherwise things will get into trouble. When it got bigger, it became the United States of Taiping that declared war on the great powers, rather than the Chinese workers’ uprising and the division of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Therefore, the role of the "ultimate villain" must be none other than Hong Xiuquan, who is the second son of God!
When Hong Xiuquan heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked alertly: "Who should be considered the villain?" But he was shouting in his heart: "Not me!"
Luo Yaoguo shook his head like a rattle: "Who should be the bad guy first?" He said and patted his chest, "I will go first, and you will be the good guy first."
Hong Xiuquan nodded slightly: "Well, I have always been kind-hearted and suitable to be a good person... Please tell me in detail."
Luo Yaoguo cleared his throat: "I am such a wicked person. In the year of great calamity, I ordered my second brother and your brother-in-law to continue collecting grain and pulling laborers, pretending to fight the demon to the death! "
"Humph, this is your true face!" Hong Xiuquan snorted in his heart, twirled his beard and asked with squinted eyes: "Aren't you afraid of the government forcing the people to rebel?"
"What are you afraid of!" Luo Yaoguo said categorically with a stiff neck, "Firstly, our Taiping Heavenly Kingdom has strong soldiers and horses, if anyone dares to resist? Suppress it in minutes! Secondly, we are in trouble, and it is even more difficult to eliminate the demons! We collect food and pull laborers, and the demons are also to be eliminated. You have to follow suit, our people are more upright and reliable than Qingyao, but if it really happens, it will be Qingyao who messes up first; thirdly, don’t you, the great benevolent person, take care of this!"
"Bah, it's so depraved! You are like a fallen angel descending to earth!" Hong Xiuquan cursed in his heart, "You are like this, and Brother Tian is still protecting you. Could it be that Brother Tian has also fallen? That must be the case... …”
"Then how can I tell the truth?" Hong Xiuquan suppressed his dissatisfaction and asked.
Luo Yaoguo said unhurriedly: "The trees will be moved to death, and the people will be moved to death. The people who cannot pay for food must be allowed to move, and they must be helped a little. This work is left to the Taoist priests of the Zhenyue sect, that is, The King of Heaven sent your cronies to take care of it. At the same time, let the King of the South and the King of the West let go of the land trade, and let the farmers who are strapped for money sell their fields to those with rich families. At least you can collect some travel expenses, and follow the people sent by Zhenyue to Shanghai to make a deal. A way out."
Although the God Worshiping Association has implemented a system of allocating land and floating wealth in Huguang, which has benefited millions of landless peasants, it is indeed a great merit. However, the inequality of wealth in rural areas is Can it be eliminated at once? Those who were beaten were the big landowners, the big gentry, a large number of rich peasants, and the middle peasants. Not only were they fine, but they also had more opportunities to climb up because the landlords above were unlucky.
Furthermore, some of the second-rate rural people who followed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also took advantage of this reshuffle and became small bosses at the grassroots level, so they naturally had more money.
In addition, Huguang has been at war for two or three years in a row, and there has been a natural disaster this year. The gap between the rich and the poor is getting wider and wider, small farmers will go bankrupt, and land will be concentrated. It is only a matter of time before this happens.
To put it bluntly, the division of land that Luo Yaoguo instigated was to let the lower-class farmers breathe a sigh of relief, open up a path for promotion for the middle-level people in the countryside, and at the same time cultivate grassroots forces loyal to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. But for those at the bottom who did not seize the opportunity to stand up. For the poor, and those unlucky ones who have been reduced from landlords to the bottom... life is still hard.
After all...the private ownership of land has not been touched.
"Can you live in Shanghai?" Hong Xiuquan asked with a frown.
Luo Yaoguo nodded like a fool: "That's not true! When we get to Shanghai, there will be a company that specializes in labor export and will come to recruit people. On the way to Shanghai, the Taoist priests of the Zhenyue Sect should be able to develop these people into believers."
"Is there anyone who wants me as soon as we arrive in Shanghai?" Hong Xiuquan's eyes widened and he thought to himself: "Good guys, you guys cooperate very well!"
Luo Yaoguo chuckled: "To tell you the truth, King, those businessmen in Shanghai have been working on this business for more than a day or two. In the past two years, large tin mines have been dug out in Nanyang, and gold mountains have been discovered in both the United States and British Australia. We are short of manpower! Many foreign mining companies have seen that our people are honest and willing to work, and feel that it is more cost-effective to use Chinese than to use natives and black slaves, so they are willing to pay travel expenses to hire people to mine. These poor people go out to work, I can earn more money than in China.”
Luo Yaoguo didn't just want to send the hungry people from Huguang overseas on a whim. In fact, he started planning this as soon as he entered Shanghai. Who makes him the "angel" who predicts the future? He already knew how many years in the future. China will be trapped by the contradiction between man and land, which is even more ugly than in the original history. After all, in the original history, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom war killed a total of 100 million people, and then the Northwest Rebellion killed more than 10 million people. Just like this, in 1877 and 1878 More than 10 million people died of starvation in Dingshu and Qihuang! If not for the consumption of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the Great Rebellion in the Northwest, by the 1870s, China's population might have reached 600 million.
If we don’t export a little bit, how can we feed the country with the level of agriculture in the 1870s?

"Is it cheaper to throw your mother away than to be a black slave?" When Hong Xiuquan heard this, his jaw almost dropped. "Why are the wages of Chinese workers so low? And... you can earn much more outside the country than at home?"
Luo Yaoguo glanced at Hong Xiuquan and sighed softly: "That's it! So the Taoist priests of the Zhenyue Sect have to encourage these poor people who have left their hometowns to go to sea to make a living. Some Taoist priests can even lead teams out... and even arrange for some white believers to follow them. Use them as a cover to build True Testament churches overseas and let the churches protect these poor people who go out to find a way to survive."
Fooling white believers is a trump card of the Zhenyue Sect! Especially when the two parties to the conflict are Chinese and indigenous, whoever the white master supports will have the truth! Therefore, he and Hong Xiuquan’s white believers must make full use of it. stand up.
With that said, Luo Yaoguo took out a thread-bound booklet from his arms and handed it to Hong Xiuquan with both hands: "Heavenly King, these are some ideas that my brother has thought about. Take it and take a look for reference. When you understand it, we will convene again. The kings will hold a meeting and decide this matter as a secret national policy of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom!"
