Chapter 277 [The Significance of the Existence of the Family Gate Valve]
But seeing an old man walking slowly to the door, he beckoned to Cheng with a kind face, and said with a smile: "Cheng family's doll, don't howl, if the old man's guess is correct, your howling is still a strategy taught to you by your master, right?" ”
"Your master, this person, really thinks through people's hearts, but he also knows that people in the world can't be fools, so no matter how profound the strategy is, there will always be people who can see the clues, so he specially taught you this howling ......"
"It's really a good way to move people with emotion. Lao Yu has to say that this time Lao Yu was moved. ”
"Cheng family doll, you remember, although the family is known as Zhong Ming Ding Food, although the family will pounce on it when it sees interests, but we are not all hard-hearted."
"As long as he is a person in this world, he has his own soft heart, and the richer the person, the heavier his heart is willing to do good, for example, a beggar appears on the street of Chang'an, covered in dirt, starvation and death, at this time a rich man and a poor man see, which person do you think will save the beggar first?"
"Doll, let me tell you, it must be the rich man who took out a few copper coins and threw them over first."
"And what about the poor man? He might even have secretly taken a few copper plates that the rich man threw to the beggar......"
"The so-called poor people's ** plan, rich conscience, in fact, does not determine who praises and who degrades, but people live in the world forced to breed their minds. If a person is poor and anxious, he can do anything. Only when people are rich can they be qualified to show their softness. ”
"It is precisely because of our family that we have been rich for more than several generations, and we are willing to do good more than the poor......
"You may retort that the old decay is singing a high note. You will even use your master's situation as an example, thinking that your master never received relief at all when he was a child, such as that Miyun Sun, who never helped your master, right? ”
"Cheng family doll? Let me tell you, in fact, the Miyun Sun clan has helped your master, and it can even be said that it has helped many people in Miyun County. Although Sun is extremely harsh? Treating the poor almost in an oppressive way? But? After all, they gave the people a little work to do when they were in a state of scarcity. ”
"In those days, hiring someone to work meant giving someone something to eat. It is precisely because of that bite of food that your master was able to survive and become today's Youyun Lord. ”
"We don't deny it? Your master has always hated the Miyun Sun family? But is there any gratitude in his heart? The old man thinks he is also grateful. He was such a shrewd man, he knew better than anyone why he survived. So, he will definitely have gratitude in his heart. ”
What if he didn't have this gratitude in his heart? Do you think the Miyun Sun clan can survive to this day? You've been knocked to the dust by your master a long time ago? I'm afraid that none of the whole family will be able to live. Fan Yang Lu's clan is strong enough, right? Once ranked among the five surnames and seven wangs? But where is the Fan Yang Lu clan now? A so-called horse bandit crossing the border made them dissuade the chickens and dogs from staying, wow. ”
"So powerful Lu? Disappeared overnight? On the contrary, the small family of the Miyun Sun family has been preserved to this day. ”
"This is precisely because your master is grateful to the Miyun Sun clan in his heart."
"The Sun clan has oppressed him, but the Sun clan's relief has allowed him to survive, so he has room for revenge? "
"So much does the old man tell you? It's not that I want to argue for the family. Are you just a little guy after all? There's no point in convincing you. Why is the old decay so chattering? Because I want you to understand one thing, and that is that the family has a stronger desire to do good than the poor......"
"And that's exactly what your master really meant by making you cry in front of us."
"Gu Tianya, this person? It's really heart-wrenching. He knows that our family pays attention to interests, but once the things in the world involve interests, he can't help but bargain, if he rests on other things, he has enough energy to grind with us, grind until we have no temper, grind until we obediently follow his path......"
"But not this time, the hundreds of thousands of Han girls in the Land of Clouds can't afford to wait. Now that the New Year has passed, it will be the beginning of spring in another month, what does the beginning of spring mean? This means that a lot of land has to be cultivated. There is an old saying among the common people, which is called "people are wrong for a while, and people are wrong for a year". If sowing is delayed at the beginning of spring, the whole year will be wasted. ”
"So, your master only has one month to do this."
"That's why he's so anxious."
"He knows that he can't grind with us slowly this time, so he can only try it with this emotional and touching method."
"Thankfully, he made the right bet again......"
……
The old man spoke at length, and his voice seemed to be deliberately transmitted into the courtyard.
Just when everyone was whispering, they suddenly saw the old man leading Cheng Chumo into the door.
After entering the door, the old man first bowed.
No matter what their identities were, everyone present couldn't help but subconsciously return the salute.
But seeing the old man smile, he pointed at himself and said: "Old decay Cui Yun, self-named Qinghe Laosuo, friends of the family know that Lao Yu is the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan, and the opponent of Tiance Mansion believes that Lao Yu is the most cunning old fox in the family. Today, whether friends or foes, let's put aside the things of the past. Some people may feel the same way, thinking that what Lao Yu said is indeed reasonable, but there must be some people who will secretly laugh and think that Lao Yu is silently helping Cheng...... After all, Lao Yu is Cheng Chumo's grandfather. ”
It turned out that this old man was the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan.
The world calls him Cui Gong, known as the pillar of the five surnames and seven hopes.
Cui Gong pulled Cheng Chumo into the door slowly, and walked straight to the previous tables, then slowly stopped, and looked at everyone: "Although Lao Yu is Cheng Chumo's grandfather, Lao Yu will not take special care of this child, I am the patriarch of the Cui clan in Qinghe, and the first thing to consider is my own family." Cheng Chumo is my grandson, strictly speaking, he belongs to an outsider, his crying just now really made Lao Yu feel distressed, but that is just my grandfather's distress for his grandson, I think you all know that I Qinghe Lao Suo has always done things like this. Focus on profit first, then focus on people......"
The family present nodded subconsciously.
The Tiance Mansion also felt the same way.
At this moment, I suddenly saw Cui Gong's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "However, there are some things that can't always be focused on profit and not people." Today's people are all in charge, so we don't need to hide what we say. The old man thinks that the affairs of the Han girl need to be decided. It was hundreds of thousands of Han women, who had been plundered by foreign races and suffered a lot, although they had been rescued by Gu Tianya, but their future fate was still a big deal. ”
"How to solve it? Gu Tianya has found a way. It's the cotton industry, it's the textile workshop. But there is a premise for starting this industry, which requires everyone to go to the land of clouds to help him grow cotton. The amount is very large, and the bottom limit is 1.5 million mu. We all know that Gu Tianya is a self-made man. Although his wife was a princess, the princess used to be very poor, and she only had soldiers in her hands, but she had no money. ”
"Therefore, Gu Tianya is not capable of starting the cotton industry on his own."
"One and a half million acres of land, and all of them are uncultivated wasteland, which means that at least 150,000 people need to reach Youzhou in just one month, and reclaim the land and sow the seeds."
"150,000 people went to open up the wasteland and farm together, and the food they needed to eat every day could crush Gu Tianya, so he set his eyes on us."
"This act of staring at people is admittedly uncomfortable, but the old man wants to persuade you here to say a few words, let's put this discomfort aside for a while. Let's go help Gu Tianya, and let's each use our own strength. Let's also let the guy who has always been hostile to the family take a look, the family is the backbone of the entire Central Plains Han family......"
"Let's let Gu Tianya clearly understand who helped him with hundreds of thousands of Han women, is it the court? Is it Tiance Mansion? Neither, but those of us who have always been hostile to him. ”
"As the patriarch of the Qinghe Cui clan, Lao Yu solemnly announced to everyone that the participation share this time is that the Cui clan of Qinghe will dispatch 3,000 households to reclaim 30,000 acres of wasteland in Youyun. His bottom limit demand is 20,000 mu per family, and Wu Qinghe Cui's family helps him bear an extra 10,000 mu, and he must use this sincerity to make him understand the indispensability of the family. ”
