After listening to Qin Leyin's sonorous and powerful speech, Leyu was silent for a moment and said:
"I'm surprised."
Qin Leyin was not surprised: "Do you think it's strange for a person like me to say such a thing?"
Le Yu did not deny: "In the eyes of many people, the red-blooded son Qin Leyin is the next generation head of the Qin family. He is decisive in his methods, has a unique vision, and acts vigorously and resolutely... Forget it, I can't seem to think of a more euphemistic way of saying it, then I
Just say it clearly——"
Leyu stretched out his head slightly and approached, and said in a deep voice:
"You are also a profiteer."
"As you said yourself, it is the nature of businessmen to seek profit, and you are a born businessman. Your words are sincere and every sentence is powerful, but I can't find anything in your behavior that can match what you said."
irrefutable evidence'."
"The second leader of the Yitian Gang, your Qin family, killed him, right? The engineering team hired by your Qin family also cheated from time to time, right? I heard that after you participated in the Qin family's affairs, the Qin family's business got better and better, but they accused your Qin family of being black-minded and arrogant.
There are also quite a few people.”
Qin Leyin seemed a little confused: "Yes, so what?"
Le Yu: "You keep saying that you value morality, but what you do is no different from others. You are exploiting the people, widening the gap between rich and poor, and creating instability. You say you are patriotic, but I only see you.
In a hollow country."
"I understand what you want to say..." Qin Leyin couldn't help laughing and shook her head: "I'm also surprised, Wei Shao, you actually think like this - I uphold the Huiyao orthodoxy, but it's not the same as that.
What does it have to do with the lower class commoners?"
"The so-called Huiyao Taoism is composed of tens of millions of people." Le Yu said in surprise: "And didn't you just say what the people want? Don't you think that the war between the Backlight Organization and the heroic warlords is irresponsible to the civilians? You
You recognize the power of civilians, but you also participate in the exploitation of civilians. Isn't this a double standard?"
Qin Leyin asked: "What is double standard?"
Le Yu: "It means applying two different standards to two same things. For example, if you have two children, both of them got 90 points in the exam, but you only praise one for 'good exam' and criticize the other.
A 'why was 10 points deducted' - this is a double standard."
"Then I don't have double standards." Qin Leyin spread his hands and said: "I recognize the power of people's aspirations, hate the ambitions of backlight organizations and heroic warlords, and hope that the people will not be devastated by war, and these - I am doing business and making money.
what relationship?"
"I have only one opinion about civilians from beginning to end——"
Qin Leyin played a direct attack card and said with a smile: "They are resources."
"Politically, they are the cornerstone of glory."
"In business, they are producers of goods."
"Militarily, they are soldiers who defend against foreign enemies."
"Precisely because they are such an important resource, they should not be consumed in civil strife."
"They should be consumed at the border, in factories, and in more valuable positions."
"I can understand your confusion, Westbrook - you probably confused the Brilliant Four Guards with those backlight organizations. Unlike the chaotic villains of the Backlight Organization who try to destroy everything and redefine the rich and the poor, the Brilliant Four Guards
It’s about maintaining order while also acknowledging reality.”
Qin Leyin leaned back slightly and looked sideways at the half-city factory area in the dark night lights. One after another, one after another, they were like a group of huge, exquisite and heavy cages.
"There are always people who want to go to factories, there are always people who want to farm, and there are always people who want to work today. In this world, many people cannot enjoy resources. Many people themselves are resources."
"The Niguang organization's slogan of 'all beings are equal' is nothing but illusory arrogance. Not to mention whether their fragile system can be maintained, the resources in this world are not enough for everyone. In the end, they are just trying to build a
It was just a regime where 'all living beings are equal, but I am above all living beings', so what's the difference between it and now."
"As you said, Wei Shao, I am a businessman who exploits workers, but at the same time, I also uphold Huiyao's orthodoxy. There is no conflict between the two." Qin Le said with a sinister smile: "The imperial court collects exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and merchants use the economy to
Exploitation and officials using their power for personal gain are actually the same - we are all just obtaining resources."
"It's just that the imperial court made mistakes in decision-making, made mistakes in judgment, and squandered the entire lake. That's why the situation in Tianji District has deteriorated to this day."
"'Pleading for life for the people' has always had two explanations: the first is 'cannot bear to see them die'; the second is that we cannot just watch these resources die in an unknown way."
"And we have the responsibility to protect the people, but also to use and acquire their excess resources. Even if they have read books and learned tactics, most people are still stupid. If they keep their property, it will only make them lazy, instead of flowing into the streets and alleys.
, even if it is obtained by gambling liars, it is better to flow into the hands of businessmen, at least it can open more factories and launch more ships."
Ah ah, it is not good for young people to make so much money, it will make people lazy and not work hard... Le Yu suddenly felt that these remarks were a bit familiar.
"So Westbrook, you can rest assured." Qin Yueyin put a card on the cover: "Huiyao Siwei does not hate wealthy businessmen, but is afraid of wealthy businessman alliances - more accurately, he is afraid of wealthy businessman alliances that are not used by the court.
."
He suddenly changed the subject: "To be honest, Westbrook, you were so aggressive just now, I thought I was talking to a backstabbing person. But I quickly remembered - if the businessman is really emptying the country, then Qin is just
Little bugs, the Jing family is the big bug."
Le Yu laughed dryly and agreed, secretly warning himself to be careful with his words.
Fortunately, he is Jing Zhengwei now. If anyone else had said such words, he might not have been beaten by Qin Le, but if it had been Jing Zhengwei, it would have been a pretentious cliché.
When it comes to oppression, profiteers, and exploitation, the Jing family is the most ruthless chamber of commerce in Xuanzhu County, with several mines and factories and over 10,000 slave workers. If people in Xuanzhu County want to line up for target shooting, Jing Zhengwei is probably not among the top three.
The first ten.
Qin Leyin watched Le Yu play cards silently, neither agreeing nor rejecting. She knew that the chips she gave were still short, so she sighed: "It seems that it is really difficult to impress Westbrook."
"I'll think about it," Le Yu said perfunctorily.
"Does Westbrook intend to enter politics?"
"Join politics?" Le Yu shrugged: "You said joining the county magistrate's house or becoming a government official?"
Qin Leyin shook his head: "No, we are going to Yanjing."
"Yanjing?" Le Yu smiled: "What? If I cooperate with you, Huiyao Siwei can still give me a job as a Beijing official?"
"Of course it's impossible." Qin Leyin said with a smile: "But I can provide you with an investment opportunity, Westbrook."
"What investment opportunity?" Le Yu felt confused. Did Qin Leyin actually want to defraud money after talking a lot of nonsense?
Qin Leyin, however, took the initiative: "Westbrook, what do you think is the investment business with the greatest return?"
Le Yu guessed: "Slave trade? Arms?"
"No, no, no, those can only bring money, but the investment business with the highest return in the world can bring you power over ten thousand people..."
Le Yu understood instantly.
"Is there any business that can yield tens of millions of times more returns than investing in the emperor?"
Qin Leyin opened the lid and found a critical hit card:
"What we were talking about just now was business, now it's time to talk about some personal matters."
"Although the world is turbulent, they only have twenty years. As long as Yanjing remains unbroken for twenty years, and the hanging holy sword Hui Yao recognizes its master again, Bahuang Liuhe can be suppressed in an instant."
"I joined the Huiyao Four Guards not only because the Huiyao lineage is more important, but also because... Huiyao is the most likely winner!"
"The Silver Blood Society's path is wrong, but they are wrong because they are too arrogant."
"Twenty years are not only the heroes' twenty years, but also our twenty years! If we can help the imperial court suppress the Eighth District, we will naturally find many opportunities for development. Even if the Holy Sword shines again, we will be in a good situation.
Success, ushering in an era for businessmen!"
"Westbrook, let me have a sincere conversation with you."
Qin Yue said in a gloomy voice: "The world is in chaos, who doesn't want to take this opportunity to achieve a career? Who doesn't want to rise to the top?"
"But in just twenty years, the risks are too great, and wars occur frequently, which will only lead to the destruction of lives. The only right way is to rely on the court that is bound to win and assist the emperor to quickly suppress the rebellion."
"I actually like what you said just now, Westbrook: emptying the country. In war, it is the best time for us to empty the country. Generals, armies, officials...all these resources that others can't prevent can only be used when
It is during the war that we have the opportunity to get involved."
"I know that the country is corrupt and the system is backward. But instead of tearing everything down and starting over, we might as well work hard to hollow out the country in the past twenty years, liaise with the army, associate with party officials, and enrich ourselves. Then we will
Have the opportunity……"
"Constitutional reform!"
"As a Dongyang businessman, I will support the new emperor's ascension to the throne, support the building when it collapses, turn the tide when it falls, establish a constitution and reform the government, limit the imperial power, leave a name in history, and be famous for generations... This is the future I envision."
Listening to Qin Yue's gentle and gentle voice describing this rebellious ideal, Le Yu was stunned for a while, and then slowly said: "This piece of cake you drew is almost killing me."
"Of course, we are still just two young people who are not even the president of the Chamber of Commerce. It is too early to say this." Qin Le said with a sinister smile: "But the reason why I worked so hard to bring down the Silver Blood Association is for
Future preparations - There is a lot of money to invest in the emperor. The Qin family's current financial resources are not enough to make such a huge investment. I must eat well when the silver blood will fall, and then have the opportunity to pass Huiyao
We will use Siwei’s channels to make next plans.”
Le Yu suddenly asked: "Are you so anxious, are you afraid that if Yin Xue suddenly decides to support the imperial court, your grand plan will be in vain?"
Qin Le smiled gloomily, neither confirming nor denying: "The Silver Blood Society is a group of dead bones in the grave, and it can't be seen that far."
"However, I have never told anyone else about my plan, not even my brother knows about it... Westbrook, you are the first person to know."
The only profiteers in the world are Jun and Le Yin... Le Yu secretly complained in his heart, but he said unceremoniously: "As the saying goes, "it's just a matter of words, but you're not afraid that I will spread these things?" When the time comes, the Silver Blood Association,
The Four Hui Yao Guards will definitely cause trouble for you."
"I'm not afraid." Qin Leyin shook her head.
Le Yu thought he would say something gay like "I believe in you, Westbrook," "I think you and I are very compatible." Unexpectedly, Qin Leyin went on to say: "I just deny it directly, and Westbrook, you
Don’t you think that these remarks and plans also seem to come from you?”
"Yinxue will be easy to fool, and the four guards of Huiyao also believe in me. I won't have any trouble. But if I slander you, your brothers will not let go of such a good opportunity..."
"When a tree falls, everyone will criticize it, and when a drum is broken, thousands of people beat it. Maybe there is a traitor sent by your brother in your newspaper office. When the time comes, you will stand up and report that you are a traitor, and the newspaper office will be finished..."
Le Yu was startled and sighed: "Okay, how do you want to cooperate?"
Qin Yue Yinxin said that Jing Zhengwei was tough and refused to give in even if he was not threatened. He was such a cheap person.
Le Yu felt a little scared in her heart.
Damn, there really are some backstabbing elements in my newspaper office!
