Generally speaking, Hai Yantian would never "show weakness" to outsiders.
However, the two people he has been thinking about and tracking for thousands of miles are the "saviors" he longs to seek.
"I'm really embarrassed to say this...but now, I really can't hold it in any longer, so I'll just tell you everything!"
Having said this, Hai Yantian rubbed his hands together and clenched them tightly, as if he wanted to knead the "secret" that he had always held tightly in his hands, crush it into pieces, and put it back.
However, this "secret" is really too big. If he doesn't solve it, their Hai family's "Kingdom" will completely change.
The head of the Confucius family, Jin Jikou, who had always coveted to be the leader of the Ku Kingdom, took advantage of Hai Yantian's moodiness to start his own "usurping power" trip.
He knew that what could provoke all the people to complain was none other than the "information" system that Hai Yantian was most proud of.
For the people at the lower level, it doesn't matter whether there is "privacy" at all, because even if all their belongings are laid out, there are only a few items in total; if the holes in the upper level can be seen "clearly" , on the contrary, it is "reasonable and well-founded" as to when to distribute food supplies, which is a good thing;
However, for the upper-class Confucian people who have a lot of money, this "clear knowledge" is not a good thing.
Especially Jin Jikou, the head of the Confucius family. Originally, he had always acted "indifferent to the world" and stayed away from the center of "showing off". He made everything lively and people's focus was on "wives and concubines". "Groups" on Lu Qi.
Not only that, he also quietly and deliberately collected more information than the children of the Hai family could collect, and also let the women in the family take advantage of the opportunity to go out to chat with other gossiping women. , revealed bit by bit.
Since then, more people have known about the wealth of Lu Qi's family, which has already become as rich as the country!
Jealousy is a "virus" that spreads rapidly among people's brains and hearts through "word of mouth".
And when this "evil virus" spreads, the first victims are Lu Qi's wives.
Originally, they lived in their own places and lived in peace with each other.
However, when they learned all the facts about "preferring one over the other", Lu Qi's image of a "good man" was completely destroyed.
And Lu Qi finally discovered that the "speech skills" that he used to be "all-round and exquisite" had unknowingly stopped working.
Finally, he began to take this "rumor" seriously. After patiently grinding, he finally heard almost the same version from the wives:
"In order to allow the lower-class Confucian people to improve their lives, Lord Hai decided to start from the upper-class Confucian people. He would levy a special tax from each noble family and give all the money to the lower class people. But whose family should be taken first? From the beginning, the Lu family with the most wives and daughters was designated as the first family. Moreover, to use him as an example, they would gradually drag down other aristocratic families until their income levels were on par with those of other aristocratic families. It will only end when the lower class Confucius are the same."
Of course, the extremely smart Lu Qi couldn't bear such "bad news".
Although I don't know whether it is true or not, so many ladies have said it together and have plans to pack their bags and go back to their parents' homes. This makes Lu Qi no longer "take it seriously"!
However, in such a "special mental state", Jin Jikou also "encountered" Lu Qi several times at the right time, and talked about the "same situation" with a sad face, saying that his wives also had to They each packed up their belongings and quickly returned to their parents' homes to avoid being "equalized" and not even guaranteed their "dowry".
As soon as such a "panic" mood spread among the upper echelons, Lu Qi, the strongest person and the focus of the rumors, felt that something must be done about this matter. He had to prepare for a rainy day. He could not wait for such a "big thing" to happen. On top of his Lu family.
Therefore, the first thing to do was to "destroy" the "Certificate of Nations".
What Jin Jikou and the head of the Lu Qi family said is very well-founded, based on the article in the "Book of Nation":
"All living beings are equal, they all enjoy food and clothing, and they all have something to support them."
This time, what we have to do is to achieve the word "even".
Jin Jikou said: "Master Lu, look at it, the word 'Jian' doesn't mean 'Du', but means 'average'! This matter made the Confucian people below take it very seriously. , they are clamoring to realize this word, otherwise they will rebel and all rush forward!"
After speaking evenly, Jin took a few words and deliberately paused for five seconds, staring directly at the head of the Lu Qi family who was listening attentively.
"Say it quickly!"
Sure enough, Lu Qi couldn't wait any longer and urged the next step.
Jin swallowed a few times, deliberately slowed down his speaking speed, lowered his voice, and then said:
"Look, if we don't take advantage of the 'gap' period when our Hai Yantian's mind is unclear and his whereabouts are uncertain, to handle this matter, if the people below really make a fuss, Hai Yantian When he comes back again, he will definitely find another good opportunity to increase his 'humiliation value', and he will definitely side with those lower class people. When the time comes, we will be in trouble! Think of all your beauties This lady, every day from now on, will be like the gang below. She is only wrapped in a layer of fish skin, can only eat one yellow flower a day, becomes sallow and skinny, and has no strength to even scream... Do you think, after that? A day like that?"
I have to admit that this Jin Jin doesn't talk much in ordinary times; but once he does, he is really "very inflammatory" and "persuasive".
While Lu Qi listened, he kept nodding his head, biting his lips to pieces.
He couldn't stand how his lovely wives had turned into "dregs"; he couldn't bear to think that the meals he provided to them every day could only be a yellow flower.
"Then, what do you think we should do?"
Lu Qi also knew where to start, but he still wanted to listen to Jin Jikou's advice.
"The problem lies in the "State Letter". Of course, we have to revise it!"
Jin Ji's words hit Lu Qi's heart hard.
"This, you know, I am not qualified to modify this "Certificate of Nations"! It has been hundreds of years since this thing was engraved, and no one here has ever modified anything. One word! I heard that the people who formulated this thing are a pair of experts from outside the world. They seem to be the 'Tao Master' and the 'Spell Master'. Only with their intervention can it be possible Hai Yanzhu went to revise it. The two of us, not to mention Shang Kong and Xiao Kong, including Hai Yantian himself, and no one else, have ever had the power to revise! Everyone has memorized it in their hearts. How is it possible! This is too difficult!"
Lu Qi sighed and expressed his "helplessness".
You know, in the past, anyone who wanted to "change" the credentials of the country was asked to leave the Lord and be completely "free", but he did not want to get this kind of "freedom" - to be swallowed by the sea leaf lizard, and then It turns into its excrement and becomes the food for seaweed.
He really doesn’t want to lose his good life in the country!
