Regarding the current mental state of Wang Jing and Pei Ji's gang, realistically speaking,
Although it would be best to immediately break away from everything in China and go directly to make peace with the Romans, but since we can continue to make profits...
So why not do this?
Obviously continuing to make profits is the best choice.
If you don't have money, you are stupid.
The key point is more important. Now that you are going to join the Romans, when you get to Rome, you will definitely have to make friends with various people in Rome. It is said that there is a Senate in Rome, which is roughly equivalent to the imperial court of China. Make friends with the high-ranking officials.
This is obviously an important matter.
With these factors included, the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes will probably have to spend a lot of money. The key is that the amount of money will not be small. It does not mean a very specific amount - of course it has to be converted into silver and gold now, but
Generally speaking, the amount of money...
Because this "up-and-down management" is different from ordinary management, such as the expenditure on intelligence matters this time, it is equivalent to giving to the Romans - the key is the upper class of mainstream Roman society, that is, the "local snakes" in the Roman state.
A certificate of submission given by a person.
And since it is a certificate of investment, sorry, the amount of this kind of thing is not determined based on the specific amount of the money itself, but is determined based on the percentage of your total wealth.
Pure real damage!
Li Er may not be familiar with this kind of thing, but Wang Jing and others are very familiar with it. This is indispensable.
The key is that the percentage is definitely not low.
In other words, the huge profits made by Wu Xing Qi Wang in the past nine months were actually destined to be spit out, which was also the cost of defecting to the Romans.
With this kind of thing weighing on their heads, it is impossible for Wang Jing and others not to be anxious. Things in the world are so difficult to begin with.
As soon as Lu Changgeng finished speaking, although no one agreed or echoed his words, his remarks, which were clearly objectionable, did not arouse any doubts. All the old men bowed their heads in deep thought.
Of course, only Pei Ji had an inexplicable look of worry on his face...
"Brother Pei, what do you think?"
Wang Jing suddenly looked at Pei Ji.
Everyone's conversation was brief, and secretly the pace was fast, but the meaning was very obvious. To put it bluntly, this contradiction was the contradiction between wanting stability... and not wanting to bleed a lot by defecting to Rome.
Of course, we can't even talk about "hemorrhaging a lot of blood" when he defected to Rome. Li Er was a stupid and tyrannical king, and the Romans were their opponents. Of course, the Romans were all benevolent and righteous emperors. How can we say he was bleeding a lot...
But the whole thing was like this, and no one could bear to have their family's wealth suddenly reduced by several percent.
Even for online games, if the version is suddenly updated, although there are new things to play, the old equipment is suddenly eliminated, which is equivalent to a significant devaluation of the game account, which will cause a considerable number of players to run away and be lost, not to mention real money.
What about Silver's property?
Think about it.
"How about we continue to buy a boat?"
After a while, Wang Jing was the first to speak.
There is no way, I am considered the leader of the circle of Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, and now I am suddenly faced with a major decision, I have to speak up.
Although he had not thought about it, deep down in his heart, Wang Jing still had the upper hand by buying a boat.
No matter how you think about it, it would be better to get more money and then defect to the Romans...
Of course, Wang Jing himself had no confidence, so he had no confidence to speak. But as soon as he finished speaking, the remaining old men became active.
"What Brother Wang said is true. I think I can't wait to continue buying the boat!"
"A gentleman takes revenge with all his capital and profits! This foolish king, Li Er, has been bullying us for many years. Now if we don't plunder him a few times, how can we eliminate the hatred in our heart!"
Suddenly, almost everyone present was filled with indignation!
Extremely excited!
However, such a passionate scene made Wang Jing stunned for a moment. He suddenly got into trouble... If everyone was a group of young guys, this would be normal, but they are all old guys. Why are they pretending to be excited here?
What do these guys think?
Wang Jing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but at this time, Pei Ji seemed to be aware of the thoughts of the remaining old men, and his expressions gradually became excited, and even showed extremely bright smiles.
Seeing that Wang Jing seemed puzzled, he said, "Brother Wang, this is not easy. If I go to serve the Romans, this Rome will also... This, the Roman king is also a great leader. When I get there, I will be afraid of all kinds of flowers."
The cost of selling is not small, America and Europe are all foreign lands... If something happens again, then it will be fine."
Pei Ji understood in an instant, and when he said this, Wang Jing was stunned.
I wipe it.
From what Pei Ji means, if you want to join the Romans, it's not just "the best to make more money", but it's also necessary?
After all, heavy bleeding is expected, and now we have to be careful of other, more dangerous and complicated situations...
Based on Pei Ji's words, joining the Romans may not necessarily be a safe decision!
Although if you stay in China, you will definitely be targeted by Li Er at any time, and all your glory will be destroyed in one moment, but defecting to the Romans may not be a sure thing.
No matter how valuable you are as China's best treasure scholar-bureaucrats, there is no guarantee that the Romans will choose the corporal Lixian because they know the goods, right?
At times like this, preparing a lot of gold and silver treasures is not the way to protect everyone's lives!
It would be better if Pei Ji didn't mention this expectation. After all, he has heard ghost stories, and who has really seen ghosts? But now that everyone is going to defect to the Romans, this is equivalent to an adventure in Fengmen Village. If he suddenly tells a ghost story at this time,
Then people have to weigh it up.
And most importantly,
Making a big sum of money and then defecting to the Romans, isn't this another form of "seeking stability"?
Wang Jing quickly understood what Pei Ji meant, and his heart suddenly became sad. He understood instantly... No wonder these old guys were suddenly so excited to get a few more ships to continue the plunder.
This group of people is not excited, but they still covet the benefits of plunder. The key point is that the benefits of plunder are definitely not enough to seduce them. Therefore, what makes these people excited is actually what Pei Ji just hinted. Going to Rome is also risky, and they need to prepare as much money as possible.
.
This directly gives everyone a legitimate reason to continue making money!
There is no need to bear the psychological burden. That would mean being filled with righteous indignation and letting oneself go. However, Wang Jing still felt that something was wrong.
To defect to the Romans was a strategy everyone had planned for a long time.
After all, the ultimate goal is to use the power of the Romans to destroy the dog emperor Li Er, and then... the Romans want to rule China, and they will definitely need agents. Those brothers can take the opportunity to take the throne!
