Chen Chang shook his head: "I'm not that powerful yet. What I mean is that you, Ah Weng, are currently unconscious. If you were that big shot, what would you do?"
Lou Qingyi's eyes lit up: "If this lasts for too long, I'm afraid the Lou family's errands will fall on someone else."
"Smart!" Chen Chang snapped his fingers, "The first step we have to do is to avoid this kind of thing from happening."
"You mean to get me recognized by that big shot. Since he recognizes my ability and loyalty, the current structure of the Lou family will not change?"
Chen Chang nodded, otherwise everyone would be willing to deal with smart people, so as to avoid wasting too much words and killing too many brain cells.
"The construction of this relationship is based on others' recognition of you."
Lou Qingyi said suspiciously: "But what can we do now to make him recognize me as soon as possible? And this is when we don't know who he is."
"You think this matter is too complicated." Chen Chang smiled: "The reason why your Lou family can stand on the front desk and become the spokesperson of that big shot is because your Aweng has been recognized by others."
"However, admission is admission. I believe it is impossible for him to leave nothing behind."
"What do you mean?"
"If my guess is correct, there must be his eyeliner here!" Chen Chang said, "There are roughly two ways for big people to get information. One is from the Lou family, and the other is from his eyeliner. The two phases confirm it.
, you will naturally know whether the information is true or false."
"So, not only do I have to perform my best, but I also don't want the eyeliner to notice that all of this is intentional on my part, right?"
"Young lady can become a female Zhuge."
Lou Qingyi's pretty face turned red.
Chen Chang continued: "On the surface, the relationship between your Lou family and the big shot behind the Lou family is one of being used and exploited. It seems that the big shot has the initiative, while your Lou family is in this relationship.
Passive. However, this situation is not static. It can be transformed under certain conditions."
Lou Qingyi said in surprise: "What if one day he thinks that our Lou family is too big to lose?"
"This is simple, you can prevent him from feeling this way."
Lou Qingyi sighed: "This will be very tiring."
"Nothing can be successful casually." Chen Chang thought for a moment and said, "In fact, there is another way, that is, even if he realizes that he has a big problem, he still cannot change and is unwilling to change this reality.
”
"What is this?" Lou Qingyi raised her eyes and asked.
"Profit and violence!" Chen Chang said, "Currently, there is a relationship of interest between your Lou family and that big shot. What you have to do is to let him see more benefits, and only you can bring him this kind of benefit.
, it cannot be replaced by anyone else, that is to say, you are irreplaceable in his mind."
"As for violence, this one is easier to understand and can directly replace it!"
"Money and force are the externalization of interests and violence."
"Externalization?" Lou Qingyi couldn't understand this word.
"Yes, it's just the appearance!" Chen Chang said: "There is something deeper behind money and force."
"What is that?" Lou Qingyi couldn't understand, "Isn't money just interest? Isn't interest just money?"
Chen sang: "What I mean is that money itself is not a benefit. If you think about it, money is for spending. Only when you use money to exchange for things that you need and value, will money be meaningful."
Lou Qingyi frowned: "The money that works is the profit. Otherwise, it's just scrap metal."
"Well, that's roughly what it means."
Lou Qingyi nodded: "So that's it!"
Next, Chen Chang felt that it was necessary to move from the theoretical stage to the practical stage.
"The possibility that you will become the head of the Lou family is not small. First of all, Dafang has the most respected status in the Lou family, and it seems that your uncle doesn't think highly of your two uncles either."
"However, it will take a fierce competition between you to decide the male and female."
"The advantage of the two of them is that they are older than you, have wider connections than you, and they have formed an alliance of interests to deal with you together. It stands to reason that your second uncle or third uncle should be the new one.
The possibility of being the head of the family is not small."
"So what you have to do now..."
Lou Qingyi said: "Of course you have to perform better than them to be qualified to compete with them?"
"I will work hard to bring more benefits to the big man behind him, so that he has to support me!"
"Not bad!" Chen Chang nodded: "More benefits!"
"But what should we do specifically?" Lou Qingyi asked, "My foundation is still shallow and I don't have as many connections as they do. The most important thing is that I am already a married daughter, and I am no longer a member of the Lou family.
”
"Yes, this is indeed an obvious disadvantage of yours, and it is also a weakness that can easily be attacked by second- and third-income families." Chen Chang smiled.
Lou Qingyi was stunned: "Then what should I do?"
"Miss Lou, I think you have forgotten what we said before?"
"Profits, interests are everything! They are the final deciding factor."
"With the blessing of powerful interests, no matter whether you are a member of the Lou family or not, you can exercise power as the head of the family. Even two-bedroom and three-bedroom families do not have the power to resist this fact."
Chen Chang continued: "Moreover, the people who support you are not just the nobles, but also other groups of people."
"Who?" Lou Qingyi asked quickly.
"They are the people who rent the land from your family." Chen Chang said with a smile.
"Them?" Lou Qingyi was a little disappointed. After all, clan politics has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In the middle and late Western Han Dynasty, land annexation was very serious, and a powerful landlord force consisting of bureaucrats, businessmen, and landlords was gradually formed.
The Eastern Han Dynasty was established with the support of powerful landlords. Therefore, powerful landlords enjoyed political and economic privileges in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Politically, they controlled the central and local political power. Economically, they annexed land and ran estates. They gradually became separatists and became a famous family.
The regime of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was a joint dictatorship between the imperial power of the Sima family, the northern gentry represented by Wang, Yu, Huan, and Xie, and the non-mainstream gentry with the Wu surname in the south of the Yangtze River. In order to gain the support of the big landowners of the aristocratic family, the Sima family continued to impose policies on them.
Policies of indulgence and co-optation have formed a typical clan politics.
The power of the gentry clans in the Eastern Jin Dynasty was sufficient to stand alongside the imperial power, or even surpass it. The emperor relied on the support of the gentry clan, and clan politics reached its peak.
It still had a profound influence until the end of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
Therefore, Chen Chang was not surprised at all by Lou Qingyi's reaction.
"Miss Lou, never ignore the power of the people!"
