Fan Zeng and others did not expect that Chen Fan would make such a comparison.
Not to mention the students who are still studying in the Imperial College, even these old-timers can hardly refute.
"Ha ha ha ha."
"That's right. If you go by what you said, then if any of you don't share a wife now, that would be a violation of the ancestral precepts."
"You just said it yourself the consequences of violating the ancestral precepts. How about you confess your sins honestly?"
Zhong Wuwei laughed at the scholars.
This made the readers feel ashamed and angry, but they could not refute it.
Kong Lingda on the stage frowned and glanced at the scholar below, who nodded silently.
"Businessmen value profits over righteousness and make ill-gotten gains over the years."
"This kind of people deserve to be suppressed."
When all the scholars were at a loss what to do, the scholar who had just glanced at Ambassador Kong Ling immediately stood up and changed the topic.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of these scholars suddenly lit up.
"That's right, these profiteers only know how to pursue profits, regardless of righteousness. What qualifications do these people have to be compared with us scholars?"
"Whenever there is a natural or man-made disaster in our country, these cheap merchants will stock up on goods, so that many people are killed by them."
"Not only that, these cheap businessmen have oppressed the people for many years, making them miserable."
"These despicable businessmen have committed numerous crimes. They were not killed, but suppressed. This is already a sign of magnanimity on the part of the emperor."
…
At this time, people changed the topic one after another and began to angrily denounce the businessman's crimes.
As long as the businessmen can be proven guilty, it is reasonable for them to be suppressed.
As for Chen Fan, who promoted the status of the businessman, he was a heinous person who colluded with the businessman.
Hearing these words, Zhong Wuwei and others also frowned.
After all, what these scholars said are people's inherent impressions of businessmen.
"If I remember correctly, eight years ago Qingzhou suffered a once-in-a-century flood, and the houses and farmland of the local people were destroyed by the flood."
"Everyone has been displaced, and there is even a phenomenon of exchanging children for food."
"The local merchants have plenty of grain in their granaries, but they take advantage of the opportunity to sell it at a high price. One pound of grain costs one hundred taels of silver."
"Who can afford such an expensive price? As a result, tens of thousands of people in Qingzhou starved to death."
At this moment, Fan Zeng suddenly spoke.
And also gave specific examples.
With the support of concrete examples, readers will be even more excited.
All kinds of slanderous things about businessmen were said.
In their words, the businessman is almost dead.
Zhong Wuwei wanted to refute Fan Zeng's words, but he couldn't find any words to refute.
After all, this is what businessmen do.
Zhong Wuwei was so angry that he killed many businessmen.
At this time, the ministers in the court also described the shortcomings of various businessmen and gave examples one by one.
This makes readers more confident.
Zhong Wuwei and others began to feel happy for Chen Fan at this time, because it was not easy to refute this point.
At this time, the readers all looked at Chen Fan provocatively, meaning to see how you can quibble this time.
I saw that Chen Fan still looked indifferent, and the smile on the corner of his mouth did not diminish at all.
“Every industry will have some black sheep, and we cannot deny this industry because of these bugs.”
"As far as I know, there have been many scum among scholars from ancient times to the present."
"Isn't Kong Wenbo of the Kong family a typical example a few days ago? For his own selfish purposes, he colluded with corrupt officials and killed hundreds of people."
"Are we going to deny the Kong family and scholars just because of Kong Wenbo?"
Chen Fan said with a smile.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Unexpectedly, Chen Fan would retaliate in the same way. Fan Zeng gave an example just now, and Chen Fan also gave an example this time.
And he also gave examples of what happened in recent days.
A smile suddenly appeared on the lips of Zhong Wuwei and others.
"My mind works so fast. Why do I think he will win this time?"
The third prince on the side looked at Chen Fan and said in a low voice.
There was a look of remorse on his face, I should have known that I had made some bets just now.
At this time, the person with the most ugly face was Kong Lingda.
Kong Wenbo is the biggest shame of the Kong family. Unexpectedly, Chen Fan would use Kong Wenbo as an example in public.
Isn’t this the face of a puncher in public?
"Chen Fan, I had already expelled Kong Wenbo from the Kong family before he was convicted. The things he did have nothing to do with my Kong family."
Kong Lingda stood up immediately and said.
Hearing this, Chen Fan's lips turned up with a bright smile.
If he were an ordinary person, he would naturally not dare to refute Kong Lingda, but how could Chen Fan be an ordinary person?
And Chen Fan also knew that the initiator this time was Kong Lingda.
How could Chen Fan save face for him at this time?
"Even if Kong Wenbo is expelled from the Kong family, he still has the blood of the Kong family, right?"
"He has received education from the Kong family since he was a child, right?"
"He was still a member of the Kong family when he committed evil, right?"
Chen Fan looked at Kong Lingda and asked with disdain.
These words left Kong Lingda speechless for a moment, and he could only look at Chen Fan with a livid face.
If there was a crack in the ground, Kong Lingda would definitely get into it without hesitation, because it was really embarrassing to be speechless by a junior.
Chen Fan is probably the only one in the entire Daxia who can make the head of the Kong family speechless.
When everyone present heard this, they realized that the Chen Fan in front of them was so courageous that they no longer took the Kong family seriously.
A strange color flashed in the eyes of the emperor on the stage.
"Not only Kong Wenbo, but also Zhao Da, Ding Mingcheng and his son, which one is not a scholar?"
"They can be said to be people who do all kinds of evil, right?"
"Can it be said that because of people like them, all the scholars in Daxia are evil-doers?"
Chen Fan looked at the readers and asked loudly.
At this time, the scholars could not think of any words to refute, and could only lower their heads silently.
"well said."
"There have been quite a few scoundrels among scholars in recent years!"
"If businessmen have to boycott businessmen if they show bad behavior, then do we also have to boycott scholars?"
At this time Zhong Wuwei said loudly.
This made all the civil servants very ashamed and angry, but also somewhat helpless.
The half-smiling smile on Fan Zeng's face had disappeared. At this time, a look of worry appeared on Fan Zeng's face.
He was now beginning to worry about how he would lose such a large amount of money if Chen Fan won!
