Chapter 114: The Hidden Dangers of the Gu Family
"I chose to go to the deep sea."
In the face of the old man's frank announcement, Gu Le smiled helplessly and made a very wise choice...... Going to the army, for the ancient immortals who have always liked to be free and unrestrained, it is simply a cage, and they can't stand the terms and conditions in the army, compared to going to the deep sea to serve as the captain of this first detachment, it seems much freer.
Seeing Gu Le's expression at the moment, the old man smiled, smiling with a kind of transcendent temperament, as if Gu Le's choice, he had already expected it, and nodded: "Since you have chosen, rest at home for a few days, and then go to the deep sea to take office!" This capital is too complicated to be the place you should be. ”
Gu Le was about to ask again, but the old man suddenly closed his mouth, his face sank, and he didn't give Gu Le a chance to speak, he groaned slightly for a while, and said slowly: "Okay, you just came back, and you've been busy for another day, go down early and rest...... By the way, your mother is still waiting for you outside, your mother and son haven't talked alone for a long time, she misses you very much, and now that you have been in the study for so long, I'm afraid she must be in a hurry, let's go meet your mother first! ”
Gu Le immediately understood, knowing that there must be something big to discuss between the father and son in front of him, he didn't ask much, immediately put down the teacup, got up and said, "I'll go out first!" ”
"Go ahead!" Gu Maosong waved his hand, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, without any expression on his face.
The door was gently pulled open and closed again.
The old man looked pensive, glanced at his son, and suddenly said, "How did you expect him to go to the deep sea?" ”
"This kid is very smart, so naturally he will choose to go to the deep sea...... And the surname is also very unsuitable for the army, likes freedom, follows the surname, and is a person with a surname...... This can be seen from the fact that he did not hesitate to kill the few gentlemen of the Xiong family, although he was young and had not experienced many storms, he was ruthless and vicious, and he knew to flee immediately after killing, but after all, he was still too young and his experience was still too shallow...... I can also see that this kid has a lot of thoughts and is smart enough, but in terms of strategy, he seems to have some shortcomings...... According to your old man's words, being a company commander is qualified, the battalion commander, hehe, it's a little powerless! This trip to the deep sea is an opportunity for him to sharpen and see if he can make progress in strategy. ”
Gu Maosong swallowed the melon seeds and smiled, changing the usual light and breeze, a little cold, but also a little expectant, and smiled very lovingly.
The old man sighed, then smiled, smiled a little cunningly, stared at his son for a while, and said in shock: "This is also why, you asked me to spend a lot of effort to get the first place out, and let him be the captain of this detachment...... In fact, he is the only one in this first place, and there is no leader on the top...... Do you want to give him a space to play on his own? ”
Gu Maosong sat on the chair, unfathomable, and said with a smile: "Yes and no, there are two reasons...... First, this kid has good skills, he is powerful enough, and he also has a reckless spirit, if he is allowed to stay in the army to survive his qualifications, he will have to poke a hole in the sky for you...... The captain of this detachment is very suitable for him, and the characters he faces are either black/Taoist heroes, or characters cultivated in wealthy families, all of them are not simple, and there are a few more powerful, all of them are swords, acting weirdly, and killing decisive people, let him fight with these capable guys, and sharpen it more in Eryu, it will be very beneficial for him in the future, and it can also make me feel at ease to hand over those messes abroad to him...... Of course, if he didn't have the ability, I would have to go out and clean up those guys myself! ”
At this moment, Gu Maosong's expression on his face was resolute and cold, and there was no half-point light and light appearance.
After a pause, the sharpness in Gu Maosong's eyes gradually dissipated, and he said lightly: "The second and most important point is to prepare for the changes in three years...... Our ancient family has also been beautiful for decades, and the major families in the capital have been breathless, they have long held back a few mouthfuls of resentment, and they can't wait for my ancient family to die, but now it's okay, once there is any wind and grass, it will inevitably strike a thunderous blow...... And according to the agreement, three years later, it is also the time for you to relinquish power! As soon as the military power was released, the cow ghosts, snakes, and gods came out to dance............ Besides, a group of your old men, hehe, how many of them did it with our Gu family? I said twenty years ago that they were all a pack of white-eyed wolves that could not be raised............ If you are hungry and cold, you will be docile like a sheep and a dog, and if you are full and warm, you will be like a wolf and a tiger. Now the old man, you haven't given up your power, you are as well-behaved as a dog, once you let go, this group of white-eyed wolves will definitely turn their faces faster than turning books, and if they don't fall into the well, even if they are benevolent and righteous...... Of course, I also understand the old man's intention to raise these white-eyed wolves, on the one hand, I think that the dogs raised by your subordinates can bite people and wag their tails, which is very easy to use and deter many villains! However, in this world, after all, there is no eternal family, nor is it ancient, and it can be passed down from generation to generation...... Because this deer is no longer the meat of one or two companies, it has become a thing that a group of people chase...... From generation to generation, one by one, you will never end. My Gu family has won this piece of meat in the past few decades, and I have to spit it out after all...... Of course, we can't cheapen which families for nothing, how can we fight, but it depends on the performance of that kid...... Three years later, if he didn't have any achievements, I had to learn from Deng Gong, give up everything in China, and go abroad to become a rich man. ”
Gu Maosong sighed, a little lonely and a little disdainful.
The so-called tree beckons the wind, the big tree of the ancient family, has been beckoning the wind for decades, there are allies and enemies, and political things will change when they say they will change.
Gu Tianxiong has long seen this very thoroughly, which is why the Gu family has never interfered in political affairs for decades? Because of the Gu family, there are too many people who have offended, especially Gu Maosong's bloody sweep of the capital twenty years ago, there are already a group of hidden enemies waiting for the opportunity to move, plus a group of unwilling families, are waiting for him to release power.
The situation of the Gu family is not as beautiful as it seems on the surface, because any huge family has its hidden dangers, not to mention a family like the Gu family, which is full of enemies all over the world. However, as a wealthy family, as long as there are many talents, why are you afraid of challenges, when Gu Tianxiong was able to take the position, it was not the same as seizing power from many opponents.
Talent is what the Gu family needs most now! A Gu Maosong is far from enough, and Gu Tianxiong, a tiger, is old after all, and he no longer has the sharpness he used to have, but the deterrence is still there, and it can temporarily deter many snakes and rats, but this Gu family still has to rely on young people to support it.
And the water in the capital is a little too deep, and it will lead the whole body, so as soon as Gu Le returned to Beijing, the old man immediately drove him out of Beijing and put him below to sharpen, which is not a kind of protection, a kind of wait-and-see.
Gu Tianxiong took a sip of tea, pouted, and asked, "You have thought far-reaching, but in a year's time, where do you plan to send this kid?" ”
"Let's watch first, wait a year later, see how far this kid can grow, and then make a decision." Gu Maosong rubbed his temples and suddenly smiled: "But this year, I can't be idle, I have been an ordinary person for twenty years, I'm afraid that I, an idler, have been forgotten, it's time to move!" Hehe, these twenty years, I haven't been in vain. ”
Gu Tianxiong sighed, his eyes lit up, and he stared at his son and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Gu Maosong said lightly: "I want to enter the military committee!" ”
Gu Tianxiong pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "You are not suitable for the military commission, you are just a bandit, you are good at fighting, killing and killing, but you can't do those flies and dogs...... Or do you want to be transferred to the Northeast Military Region for a year and a half, and then take the position and take charge of the military power of one side. ”
Gu Maosong shook his head and said with a smile: "This is not necessary...... I'm not who I used to be! In the past few years, I have also read a lot of books, although I have not had a big understanding, but I know some ways to do so...... The military committee can be regarded as a challenge to yourself! ”
Gu Tianxiong smiled, did not agree, did not deny, looked at his son, and said with a smile: "Give me a reason for you to enter the military committee!" ”
Gu Maosong smiled faintly, took a sip of tea, did not answer the old man's question directly, quoted a classic in "Thick Black Learning", and said: "At first, the folk customs were simple, not thick or black, but suddenly there was a person who was thick and black, and everyone would be made by it and have a monopoly. Everyone looked at it and rushed to imitate it, everyone was thick and black, you can't control me, I can't control you.
If there is only one person, who is neither thick nor black, then this person will be believed by the street people and have a monopoly. For example, in a shopping mall, the original merchant is full of genuine goods, and suddenly there is a person who sells counterfeit goods, and during the mixed period, this person will make a lot of money. Everyone is vying to emulate, the whole city is fake, and only one is genuine (recognizing the target), then buyers gather, always unfading, undefeated......"
Gu Tianxiong was startled, stared at his son, and pondered for a long time.
"Now the military and political circles are thick and black, and they are all low-key roads, in fact, the heart is black, the skin is thick, and they are outrageous, I don't know if I, an alternative step in, can I occupy a place?"
Gumao pine clouds are light and the wind is light!
Gu Tianxiong was silent, he suddenly found that there was something missing from the son in front of him?
Spirit!
That's right, it's sharp!
In the past, the face gave people an unstoppable momentum and edge, and it disappeared from him cleanly, but it was a little more calm, a little light, giving people a kind of harmony, and the edge was hidden, coupled with Gu Maosong's words just now, Gu Tianxiong immediately understood his intention to enter the Military Commission. …… After a slight groan, the old man said slowly: "I'll arrange this...... It shouldn't be difficult, although you have been an ordinary person for 20 years and have stayed away from the military world, but you have a lot of credit back then, I believe that those old guys will not fight against our Gu family in this matter, after all, in the past ten years, I have also sold them a lot of face, I think there is a great chance of this. ”
Gu Maosong nodded, but there was more battle in his eyes.
From this day on, Gu Maosong, who had been silent for 20 years, appeared with momentum.
