If a person is burdened with a debt of one million, he is likely to be depressed and have trouble sleeping and eating until his spine is bent; but if he owes a debt of 10 billion, this will most likely be proof of his wealth.
Ronan vaguely has such a mentality now.
And it is very possible that there are more subtle thoughts that I am not aware of.
In any case, when Ronan woke up, the situation facing his family was very likely to be a hundred times more troublesome than the worst case scenario he had imagined. When he returned home at night, he had an abnormal appetite. The preserved eggs made by Rui Wen were slim.
He drank two big bowls of meat porridge. He ate the most of the pot stickers, steamed buns, and pig's trotters that his aunt bought outside when she came home, including the two leftover steamed buns from the morning, which he ate with pickles.
Empty.
After having enough soup and rice, Ronan held his belly in his hands and said, "I'm tired, let's go have a rest first." Then he confidently went upstairs.
Mo Peng, who was rarely full after dinner, said "Hey" from behind and turned to look at his parents:
"What do you mean?"
"It means you should lose weight." Ms. Luo Shuqing withdrew her gaze from Ronan's back, raised her chin towards her own son, "Go wash the dishes."
"Isn't there a dishwasher?"
"Then you are responsible for moving it and putting it away."
There was a faint voice from downstairs, and Ronan smiled again. He didn't know why. At this time, his ears vibrated slightly. Someone contacted him through his six ears, and it was Master Gao Tianshi.
"Boss Luo, let me give you a report on my work. Well, there are not many people who signed the informed consent form. I feel that everyone is still a little bit "non-violent and non-cooperative". I really have to wait for the process to be completed. I don't know how long it has been.
.”
Ronan pushed the door open and entered his bedroom, turned on the light, and said casually: "Are you teasing me?"
After all, he never needs any signature procedures, all he wants is an attitude.
Master Gao Tianshi was startled: "No, don't put the shit basin on my head. Ouyang is nearby, I can't afford it."
Ronan smiled and asked: "Did Meng Qiutang sign it? Do you cooperate?"
This was something he specifically named and asked about on the first day.
"No……"
Master Gao Tian was a little embarrassed. He didn't ask for anything now, and he didn't cooperate with the signing. He didn't say whether the request was excessive or not. This matter was a failure.
Such a result proves that the old way of the branch can no longer meet the current requirements, at least it is difficult to satisfy this man.
Ronan chuckled lightly: "Okay. Well, Meng Qiutang... just in time, Bai Xinyan is back, let her handle this matter."
"Uh, Xiaobai?" According to past habits, Bai Xinyan is still considered the nephew of Master Gao Tian.
"I remember that Chairman Ouyang said that Quantum Company was the one who blocked the Chad Shang Building in the first place, and finally let it go. Since they were the ones who controlled it before, now it's up to them to deal with it. Tell Bai Xinyan and let her come up with it."
The spirit of Miss Two-Thousandth is coming."
"……good."
To say that Bai Xinyan is no longer a member of the Xiacheng branch, Gao Tianshi should not have informed her. It is completely unnecessary. But the point of this matter is "unnecessary action". Gao Tianshi informed her, both as a request and as a matter of business.
There is also a little bit of personal grudges mixed in, and the meaning in it can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.
While Gao Tianshi was thinking about it, Ronan had already hung up the phone.
Sitting at the desk, Ronan opened the virtual workspace, looked at the notes that had become extremely messy, and laughed again:
"Genetic species..."
This is what genetic species are like, they can create a splendid civilization, and can even stand side by side with the gods at their peak, but they always make people laugh in some places.
As one of them, Ronan dare not say whether he will fall ill at some point.
The more so, in today's situation, how to deal with and arrange the 12 billion people on the "earth and outside" and what positioning should be given to them has become an increasingly problematic issue.
In fact, if we reason strictly according to the historical context of the universe just now, there are only two options:
The first is to become a resource. The so-called "resource" is to become a "material" that helps the spiritual side grow and perfectly fills the structure of the gods. You can also use the method of the Tianyuan Empire to spread out a hundred-year sequence, promote the evolution of the population, and become a source of continuous talent.
.
The second is to become a source of chaos. This means letting it run wild or deliberately distorting it. The result will naturally be that it collapses and detonates at any time, becoming an invisible nuclear bomb and a self-deterrence.
Also, "resources" and "sources of chaos" can be switched and transformed at any time.
However, people's hearts are fragile. From chaos to chaos, even if the Tianyuan Empire truly achieves its goal, it will take tens of thousands of years to accumulate, and that is still in the higher civilization circle of the central star region; and from chaos to chaos, it is really just
It happened in the blink of an eye.
In the final analysis, this is not a "choose from one" between "resources" and "sources of chaos", but a "choice from two" based on Ronan's assessment of risks and human nature:
Should he be detached from the outside world and break away at any time? Or should he bear the burden and be with the country?
Ronan doesn't know what to do for the moment, but there is one thing: this is not at all inconsistent with his increasing influence on the "earth and beyond".
He has no reason to give up ready-made resources. Should he be allowed to abolish the "altar spider web"? Is it really necessary to give up the "hand card" that can shock His Majesty the Emperor Wu and Li Wei?
That would be hypocrisy bordering on stupidity.
What Ronan is currently doing in Xia City is actually to look in the mirror, take a look at the feedback, and see how he is reflected in the current world; whether the secular world's understanding of the current trend of integrating the "internal and external worlds" is correct
, whether the response is appropriate.
Looking at it now, we still need to work harder.
Early the next morning, while still having breakfast, Gao Tianshi contacted him again and said: "You asked Xiaobai to put pressure on me, but the effect was too strong. Meng Qiutang had to go to the police station last night to supplement the information.
"
Ronan laughed: "Isn't this great?"
Gao Tianshi sighed: "The police advised him to come back this morning. After finally waiting until the time, Meng Qiutang went to the police station..."
He paused and then said: "The result was that right in front of the police station, the speed car he was riding in lost control and crashed all the way to the recycling floor. He died on the spot, and the body parts could not be pieced together."
Ronan raised his eyebrows: "Dead?"
The occasion for his words was wrong, and everyone at the dinner table looked over.
Ronan waved his hand, left the dining table and walked to the sofa area.
During this period, Gao Tianshi continued: "As soon as the news came out, Meng Qiutang's widow applied for police protection. She also claimed that Meng Qiutang reacted abnormally last night and prepared a pile of materials. The originals are all in her hands. They are some secrets over the years. , evidence of illegal transactions. At present, the police have obtained those materials and copied them to us... How to say, basically what we want him to say is reflected. Many people are involved, and what you provided, Ah, I mean there is considerable overlap with the people reported by the Yao family."
Gao Tianshi said, and laughed again: "It's okay now, the person died but there is evidence; he died in front of the police station, the situation escalated; the police station was suspected of having an insider, and things were done so arrogantly, It is absolutely possible to take further measures. That is, it is too cruel. Xiaobai has been outside these years..."
Ronan listened expressionlessly until Master Gao Tianshi made his comment, then interrupted with a "hmm":
"In that case, let's continue. No matter what, it's a shameful waste."
Master Gao Tianshi was silent for a while, then he spoke half as a reminder and half as an advice: "Boss Luo, if this goes on, Xia City will be in chaos for a while."
"It's just a small group, clenched into a ball. I'm afraid even the branch foyer won't be full." In order not to let the family in the restaurant hear, Ronan's voice was low, but his words were clear, "If it's full... I will Seriously considered.”
