Wealth Comes Knocking

A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is no good soldier; a street vendor who doesn't want to be the richest man in the land is no good unscrupulous merchant. If you want to become the Bill Gates of the sixteenth century, you must cast aside every last notion of being a good citizen, cheat and swindle your way to riches, and use your wealth to throw your weight around. Kick corrupt officials to death, and take on every crooked merchant! Sing a few songs, fish for a few rich marks, and rake in the silver, then take control of the Ming treasury and hold the economies of foreign lands in your hands. A word to the shorties: Whoever crosses this unscrupulous merchant's line, no matter how far away, will be hunted down and killed!
