Chapter 198: Jiangnan Incident

Obviously, Wei Xuanmo praised Li Chenan very highly in front of the Taiyuan Memorial Archway.

He even goes further than many people in Ningguo!

He knew that the strength of a country was most closely related to its youth, so he was very worried. The youth who was worried about Ningguo woke up in these words of Li Chenan!

"A hundred years ago, Ningguo had a Prime Minister of Shang. He almost single-handedly turned the tide and pulled the then-precarious Ningguo back from the brink of destruction."

Wei Xuanmo stood on the boulevard leading to Taiyuan College, looked at his disciples, and said:

"From the history books of the Ning Kingdom and folk rumors, the Ning Kingdom almost worships Prime Minister Shang as a god, but as a teacher... his achievements are of course huge, but the methods he uses are very extreme."

"He saved Ning Guo at that time, but he did not save Ning Guo in this life!"

"It treats the symptoms but fails to cure the root cause, because he did not leave many far-sighted thoughts to the officials and people of Ning State! A hundred years later, Ning State... is like a dead tree, just a reincarnation!"

"I thought it would be hard for Ningguo to see spring again, but I didn't expect that Li Chenan would appear again!"

Zuo Anqiu and Yang Duoduo looked at each other in shock. The teacher's words actually lifted Li Chenan to the same height as Shang Buqi!

No!

Judging from what the teacher meant, he seemed to be higher than Shang Buqi!...

Sure enough, Wei Xuanmo took a deep breath and said, "My teacher always tells you that the most important thing for a country is faith!"

"What is faith?"

"Faith is a kind of spiritual sustenance. Simply put, faith can give people strength when they are helpless, guide people in the direction when they are confused, and make people strong when they encounter setbacks!"

"So, when a country has faith, this country has an unyielding backbone!"

Zuo Anqiu was shocked and asked: "Teacher, these words of Li Chenan are indeed thought-provoking, but...can these words become the belief of everyone in Ningguo?"

Wei Xuanmo smiled slightly, "Not really, but this sentence can make the scholars of Ning Guo set in the right direction!"

He led a few disciples and continued walking forward slowly, and then said: "This world is ultimately a world ruled by scholars. Just like you, you will eventually become an official in the Yue Kingdom."

"When scholars have a direction and work tirelessly for this, they stand on the temple and become the rulers and managers of this country."

"At this time, think about it, establish your mind for the heaven and earth, establish your destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations... They have implemented this idea, and this idea will be passed on to the people under their rule."

"They no longer become officials to make money, but to realize this great ideal, so the government will be clean and honest."

"The life of the common people will naturally be easier. There are few readers among the common people, but they know that this kind of thinking is good for them!"

"Thus, such a belief will be gradually established, the whole country will work together, and the officials and the people will work together... Therefore, my teacher asserts that the rise of Ning State will only take three generations!"

After a pause, Wei Xuanmo stopped again and looked up at the sweet-scented osmanthus trees on both sides of the avenue, "You don't have to worry about anything, because those few words of Li Chen'an... it is difficult to shake the now corrupt Ningguo."

"And people like Prime Minister Ji will not allow such ideas to spread widely in Ningguo."

Yang Duoduo was stunned, "Why?"

"Because it will hurt their interests!"

"Human beings are the most complex things in the world!"

"In the eyes of those with vested interests, they never want change, even if they are buried with the country's subjugation."

"Change will cause them to lose the power in their hands, lose the benefits at their fingertips, and even become prisoners. Of course, subjugating the country is not what they want, but..."

Wei Xuanmo stepped forward again.

"However, some things cannot be reversed after all. This is the trend of history!"

"In short, you must keep in mind Li Chenan's words. No matter what the future holds for Ningguo, these words should be carried forward... in our country of Yue!"





Huaxi Villa.

Li Chenan never expected that the great Confucian Wei from the Yue Kingdom would enshrine the few words he casually said as holy words.

After drinking a pot of iced herbal tea, he put down the brush in his hand, read the letter written on the paper, and turned to Amu, who was still looking at the lotus pond.

He felt a little strange.

Could this guy have a special liking for lotus flowers?

In the past few days, he had been sitting on the fence of the pavilion, just looking at the lotus flowers, saying very little and being extremely quiet, as if a flower had really appeared.

So this martial arts practitioner always has some quirks.

But it seems that those who practice martial arts with some quirks are the real martial arts masters.

For example, Xiao Shisanniang, who likes farming.

For example, the infatuated Murong He.

Also like Xiao Wu who likes stars to rain and snow to fall.

Also like that master painter Chang Shusheng who likes to use human blood to paint maple leaves.

I am a normal person, so it is understandable that I cannot become such a master.

Li Chenan raised his eyebrows and looked away. He stood up and walked two steps in the pavilion, thinking about what happened in Jiangnan.

That pretty young lady...forgot to ask her name...if what she said was true, then Cai Zhengyao did not disappoint me.

But the ex-fiancée Shen Qiaodie is also a courageous business genius.

She actually established a connection with the Cao family in Pingjiang City, Jiangnan Province through the Huo family... This is normal. The young lady said that the Huo family was married to the Cao family of the Jiangnan Weaving Department, and Shen Qiaodie was only thinking about it after breaking off the engagement with her.

Want to marry Huo Shufan.

The Cao family has been working in the south of the Yangtze River for many years and is familiar with almost all the magistrates and governors of various counties and counties, so Shen Qiaodie controls the pricing power of autumn grain in the south of the Yangtze River through them.

But Cai Zhengyao, an old man, is not simple either.

He actually used money to smash them, and he knocked down half of the major grain producers in Jiangnan!

The script that followed was almost the same as what she had contemplated. Of course Shen Qiaodie would not let it go, so she spent real money on it.

Now that the price of grain in Jiangnan has increased by 30% compared to last year, Li Chenan's goal for Cai Zhengyao has been achieved, so Cai Zhengyao did not buy a grain of grain in Jiangnan, and all went into Shen Qiaodie's pocket.

Then the next step is how to grab so much food.

The most critical aspects of this matter are two things -

One of them is Zhongli Qiuyang!

This brother-in-law is now the naval admiral of Linshui City. Food from all over the south of the Yangtze River must be transported to Guangling City, and must pass through Linshui City!

The second one is that the leaves are broken.

The girl said that Ye Po had networked with hundreds of gangsters these days... They were really vicious gangsters!

After all, Zhongli Qiuyang is a serious official. Of course it would not be appropriate for him to lead the navy to carry out such a robbery, but it is most suitable for Ye Po to lead these life-threatening gangsters!

Therefore, roughly at the end of this month, we will know whether this matter is successful or not.

At this moment, Xiong Da hurriedly came from outside.

"Master, someone outside just now said that I would give you this letter!"
Chapter completed!
