"You don't know something right now. There are many things going on. Once they happen, the consequences will not be determined by me!"
"It's like those stories that are passed down from false to false. When I first made it up, I didn't expect it to become such a outrageous story!"
"Dabao," Sheng Shaoqing's tone suddenly became colder, "Why do I not believe what you said?"
Li Dabao repeatedly cupped his hands and said, "You must believe me. If you don't look at the monk's face, you have to look at the Buddha's face. We are still fellow villagers after all, don't you think so?!"
"Besides, please listen to my explanation!"
"Since everyone believed in this stone god, my celestial color society has gradually flourished. However, the big tree attracted the wind, and later it attracted a group of uninvited guests..."
"They spent a lot of money and promised me a lot of things, letting me..."
"let me………"
The more Li Dabao talked, the harder it became to speak. He kept looking at Sheng Shaoqing's reaction with his eyes. Sure enough, he saw his fellow countryman's brows move slightly and asked in a low voice, "Who are they?"
Li Dabao kept it in mind and just muttered, "Anyway, they are some people who are more powerful than me. They only let me continue to do what I am doing now, but... I will promote the imperial court more during my sermons."
negative news…”
"What's more, now the lottery is no longer entirely decided by me alone."
Sheng Shaoqing looked at Li Dabao, who looked innocent, with a familiar look on his unfamiliar face, "What do you mean?"
"You should also know that when a company grows in size, I can no longer manage it alone, so I attract many other people and money sources..."
"So, besides me, there are three other venerables in the Tiancai Association..."
Sheng Shaoqing:………………
When a start-up enterprise grows, it needs capital to enter the market. Li Dabao’s model is really... complete!
No wonder the system was urging her to deal with Li Dabao quickly. If she didn't take action, Li Dabao might be listed in Great Liang!
Li Dabao said with a bitter face, "So, there is nothing I can do about it. I am forced to do nothing, so I have no choice..."
Sheng Shaoqing raised his hand to stop Li Dabao's misbehavior, "Don't mention it, I know all your tricks. If you deny it and then do it miserably, all the mistakes have nothing to do with you. All the good things are yours."
Li Dabao touched the back of his head in confusion. This must be the first time that he and the Queen Mother met... Why did the Queen Mother sound like she knew him well and was quite familiar with him?
"Li Dabao," Sheng Shaoqing paused and said, "For the sake of our fellow villagers, how about I give you a chance to change your ways?"
Li Dabao nodded, "Can you elaborate?"
"After returning to Fengchun, disband the Tiancai Society, return the wealth to the people, and then find a way to let them return to normal life."
As soon as Sheng Shaoqing said this, Li Dabao took a step back and looked up and down and said, "I...you, your request is probably a bit too much, right?"
"I founded the Tiancai Club. If you ask me to disband it now, it would be the same as killing me!"
Sheng Shaoqing said angrily, "You know this is a lie!"
"so what?"
"Taking a step back, even if I am willing to disband, there are other Venerables...those people, can they be willing?"
"That's not my concern. Of course, you have to solve the sins you have committed before. You have to tie the bell to untie it."
Li Dabao took another step back and said proudly, "That's not possible."
Suddenly, Li Dabao's eyes flickered and he said grimly, "You can disband me, but what benefits can you give me?"
"You still want benefits?"
"Of course! Those people gave me a thousand taels of gold and promised me a high official and a generous salary, so I agreed to help them!"
Li Dabao looked at Sheng Shaoqing and said, "For the sake of our fellow villagers, I don't want that much money. Just give me an official position."
"I think the position of Sheriff Chenliu is quite good."
"If you feel embarrassed, I can accept it from the position of Prime Minister of Fengchun County. After all, it is good for me to work at the grassroots level."
"After that, if you make some achievements and marry a beautiful daughter of a famous family, then it shouldn't be a problem to be granted the title of Marquis or something like that."
"And based on our relationship, I'm only one step away from being ranked third."
Li Dabao didn't notice Sheng Shaoqing's increasingly serious expression, and just planned his own promotion path.
"Li Dabao! I'm giving you face, right?"
Sheng Shaoqing completely suspected that her previous expression was too good, which caused Li Dabao to have some inappropriate misunderstanding. In such a state, he dared to ask her for an official position?!
"Hey! Hey!" Li Dabao subconsciously nodded and bowed in a low voice, but this time he was not merciful and gave himself a big mouth, "This is going to make you a prince and prime minister, and you are still so cowardly, it is really ineffective!"
Sheng Shaoqing saw Li Dabao immersed in his own world and couldn't extricate himself. He directly interrupted his fantasy and shouted: "You really think I am a soft persimmon!"
"No! No! I don't have any! Isn't it that your request is a bit excessive, so isn't it normal for me to ask for some corresponding reward?"
"Besides, don't you want to know who bribed me?"
Sheng Shaoqing glanced at Li Dabao, whose face was full of calculations, and said, "I don't want to."
Li Dabao was stunned, "Why don't you follow the routine?!"
Sheng Shaoqing turned around and said to Li Dabao, "Do you really think I called you here to discuss it with you?"
Li Dabao looked at Sheng Shaoqing's flowing skirt and indifferent expression, and the cold air when he entered quietly climbed up his back.
"You...what do you mean..."
"Li Dabao, what are your plans? Do you think I don't know?"
"You want to use this matter to threaten me into giving you a high official and a generous salary. I advise you to stop thinking about it as soon as possible. This is not a discussion with you, but a final notice from me."
After Sheng Shaoqing said this, she felt secretly happy. When she was working, Li Dabao used such a condescending tone every time to get in trouble with her, a humble worker. After many years, he finally got retribution on him. It was really just one word.
Summary: Cool!
Li Dabao was stunned for a moment before reacting and said, "Humph, I thought you would still value our fellow countrymen, but I didn't expect... you are actually such a person!"
Sheng Shaoqing said coldly, "For the sake of justice, I would kill my relatives, let alone you."
Li Dabao became angry and immediately retorted, "How do you think you are nobler than me?"
"You're just better at reincarnation than me. You're good. You'll be the Queen Mother as soon as you reincarnate. But what about me? I'm just an ordinary farmer. Do you know how difficult it is for me to work hard to become what I am today?
?!"
Sheng Shaoqing said indifferently: "I don't know, and I don't want to know either."
As soon as she heard his tone, she knew that he wanted to start a lecture and learn successfully.
but!
She couldn't stop it before, but now, she will never give Li Dabao a chance to perform!
Li Dabao was choked by Sheng Shaoqing and didn't speak for a long time. But seeing how luxurious the place Sheng Shaoqing lived now and how arrogant he looked, he still couldn't hold back the resentment in his heart and said, "You!"
"I am a farmer. Look at my body. How can I work in the fields and be exposed to the scorching sun?!"
"I want to pursue an official career, but this shabby dynasty only values family background and not talent. Even if I have the ambition to serve the country, it is difficult to realize it. I have to give up this path!"
"But how can I do work with a handicapped person like me?!"
"I can only make a living by doing business!"
"You are still destroying my job now. Even if you are the Queen Mother, I have to fight for my life and seek justice for myself. Let me ask you, do you have any conscience?! Do you have any sympathy?!
"
"A capable person, regardless of the general environment or status, can shine wherever he goes, right?" Sheng Shaoqing immediately used the words Li Dabao brainwashed her to sarcastically say back, "I won't let you follow the crooked path of Tiancai Society.
, you should be able to find another way, right?"
"You ask me if I have a conscience? You ask me if I have compassion?"
Sheng Shaoqing laughed angrily, "Have you ever seen how miserable the people in Fengchun were who were deceived and bankrupted?!"
"Have you ever seen the misery of those people who lost their families and lives for a piece of rubble?!"
Sheng Shaoqing pressed forward step by step, "How dare you come and ask me if I have a conscience? I haven't asked you about your conscience or your compassion!"
Li Dabao rolled his sleeves and said, "I have no conscience! I have no sympathy! I don't have any!"
"Haven't you heard that no businessman can do anything but rape?! If I don't coax and deceive, how can they hand over the money obediently?!"
Sheng Shaoqing looked coldly at Li Dabao, who was already a little crazy, "Look, you finally told the truth."
"So, are you going to disband or not?"
Li Dabao's eyes were about to burst and he said, "Me! No!"
"Okay", Sheng Shaoqing had already mentally prepared for this ending, "Someone is coming!"
Cui Yun, who was waiting outside, immediately walked in. Seeing the quarrel inside becoming more and more intense, Cui Yun had already wanted to come in, but the Queen Mother kept silent. As soon as she got Sheng Shaoqing's permission, she rushed in.
“Take this person to jail and try again later!”
Sheng Shaoqing turned to Li Dabao and said, "When will you figure it out? When will you come to see me again?"
Li Dabao was immediately frightened out of his wits by Sheng Shaoqing's sudden change of attitude. Is this person serious? His arrogant attitude immediately calmed down a bit.
No matter who the person in front of him is, he is about to go to jail now. He...can't just sit back and wait for death!
"No, you...are you serious?"
"You're serious!"
Sheng Shaoqing said indifferently, "What else?"
Cui Yun made an invitation gesture and was about to invite Li Dabao out. Li Dabao brushed Cui Yun's hand away and said to Sheng Shaoqing, "You really don't care about us..."
Seeing that Cui Yun was present, Li Dabao couldn't explain clearly, so he only looked at Sheng Shaoqing with a somewhat pleading look.
"Isn't it that you didn't care about face first?"
"You'd better come with me!" Cui Yun's unquestionable tone made Li Dabao sober up.
"Hey! You...this...I and I...are making trouble with the Queen Mother..."
Before the word "playing" was uttered, Cui Yun's scolding words were already thrown in front of Li Dabao, "Bold! How dare you be so presumptuous in front of the Queen Mother?!"
"You are so disrespectful. How dare you call yourself me in front of the Queen Mother?! How many heads do you have that you can chop off?!"
Cui Yun replied to Sheng Shaoqing, "Queen Mother! This person is so wanton and must be severely punished!"
Sheng Shaoqing didn't speak, he just watched Li Dabao's expression solidify inch by inch.
Li Dabao asked tentatively, "How to punish him severely?"
This was the first time that Cui Yun had seen such a courageous person, who dared to ask about his fate when he was about to die. However, since the Queen Mother had no objection, she might as well tell him, "It is disrespectful in front of the palace, ranging from the imperial staff to the serious one."
But it’s a capital crime!”
Li Dabao was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, pointed at Sheng Shaoqing and said, "You...you really want to do this to me?"
Cui Yun continued to add to the crime, "You don't even address the Queen Mother with honorifics, but you point your hand at the Queen Mother. Your current crime is even more serious."
Li Dabao wiped the sweat with his sleeves and thought hard about countermeasures. What he said just now was out of anger, and it was also the first time he said the truth since time travel. He really... really couldn't control it!
When this emotion got to his head, it was beyond his control.
He couldn't say those words to his father, because his father was just an honest farmer who was illiterate. If he said it, his father would think he was crazy. But he couldn't say it to his younger brother, because his younger brother was a rotten scholar who only had sages and principles in his heart.
.But he didn’t have any friends here. He finally met a contemporary who probably understood his pain, and all his emotions were poured out of him.
But he forgot, or perhaps he deliberately ignored it, the huge gap in identity was that he was a commoner, and the person in front of him was the current Queen Mother.
That being the case......
Li Dabao knelt down with a plop and begged Sheng Shaoqing for mercy, "The Queen Mother, have mercy on me, the Queen Mother, have mercy on me!"
Li Dabao, who was the king and hegemon in the prosperous spring, had no airs at this moment. He just lowered his body and begged Sheng Shaoqing to forgive him.
Sheng Shaoqing waved his hand and signaled Cui Yun to go down. Cui Yun said in confusion: "Queen Mother!"
But he couldn't resist Sheng Shaoqing's firm eyes and had no choice but to walk out again.
"Can you agree to the proposal I just made now?"
"Agree! Agree! I agree with everything you say!"
Sheng Shaoqing:…………
This desire for survival... really makes people less human...
"You should get up first," Sheng Shaoqing paused helplessly and said, "If you do it well, it will not be without benefits."
"Eh?"
Li Dabao wiped his tears and wiped his nose, "What the hell?"
"I mean, it's not without its benefits."
"Then you just returned it?"
Sheng Shaoqing spread his hands and said, "Do you think the benefits of listening to what you have to say are too far away?"
"Still ranked among the top three gentlemen?"
"Why didn't you say you wanted to sit in my seat?"
"Then you have to be willing..."
"What?" Sheng Shaoqing tilted his head to look at Li Dabao who stood up. Li Dabao smiled flatteringly, "Just kidding... just kidding..."
Sheng Shaoqing had known for a long time that Li Dabao would change his face quickly in front of his boss, but he never thought that one day he would become his leader and learn how to change his face.
