Chapter 220: Moths
"Hu Lao is back? What do you think? What do the officials say? "In the courtyard of Yanjing Beiquanshan, many bigwigs gathered together, and the people gathered were all leaders of well-known families, or in important positions, or former retired bigwigs.
Hu Lao looked at everyone's expectant eyes and sighed slightly: "The official family agreed to Lao Li's suggestion, and promised that if that sect can really show the expected strength this time, it will fully support the construction of the Dragon Group." ”
"Confused!!" When everyone heard this, they immediately clapped their legs and sighed: "The official family is still too young, and it is really a stupid move to dig up the foundation of the sect like this!" ”
In the crowd, a middle-aged man who looked a little younger, stood at the back, looking at this group of old people who looked up to the sky and sighed, with a posture of denouncing the rulers for the sake of the country's long-term fortune, and his heart was slightly strange.
These people .... Are you acting or hypnotizing yourself?
When he was a child, he didn't understand why the elders in the family resolutely suppressed the sect, so that the world's largest group of transcendents in Central China could not go abroad.
Even the country of the Red Sun, which is a projectile country, knows that it supports the Kagura Legion with the strength of the whole country, and now it is thriving in the world, and it dares to compete with the North American transcendental, but Central China, which has the strongest resources, is a situation where it is impossible to advance or retreat.
Why is this happening?
It wasn't until he entered the political arena and took over the burden of the family that he gradually understood the reason: after all, he was unwilling to let go of power....
Ordinary people have a natural disadvantage in the face of transcendentals, and their official families can compete with transcendental families, relying on the huge national power behind them, even in the face of those thousand-year-old sects, they also have confidence, but once the transcendents pour into the official?
When the transcendents also have official support and join the government, what advantage do these political families have?
Once the transcendent person is reused and has made contributions, he will slowly step into the political arena in the future, right? The transcendent who has the inheritance relies on the superior strength, under the competition on the same platform, what do you ordinary people compete with them?
This is not alarmist, but has a factual basis, everyone looks at the top countries in the world today, which is not the extraordinary person in power?
After the Red Sun reformed and fully supported the Kagura Legion, the Seven Great Families responsible for cultivating Kagura's transcendent almost took power, and even if they were occasionally replaced, they were also newly rising extraordinary forces, and ordinary people had less and less power to speak in politics.
On the Western European side, the twelve nobles behind the Knights of the Round Table also basically account for most of the political, commercial, and social circles of the Western European Union, including the North American side, although most of the presidents and the team under them are ordinary people, but the consortiums supported behind them are basically the consortiums with the share of the extraordinary legion!
To put it bluntly, the fist-big hard truth, the official family in Central China has been able to resist the sect power for many years, relying on a completely unfair platform gap, once this gap is gone, these traditional political families will inevitably come to an end slowly, which is the fundamental reason why most of the families led by Luo Lao have an attitude of opposing and sectarian cooperation.
This group of people and for thousands of years, those families of ancient families who advocated suppressing sects are almost all a group of people, and this is the reason why they wantonly slaughtered sect disciples and suppressed sects in the middle and Tang dynasties, but now it is different....
If you have external competition, others have extraordinary and you don't, then the problem is very serious, there is a gap in national strength between countries, but extraordinary forces are a very important part of the comparison of strength, for example, if North America does not spend a lot of money to form a transcendent army, Red Sun can kill the top political leaders in North America overnight only by Kagura's special forbearance.
If you can't even do the basic operation of the country, that's the importance of the transcendent.
This leads to the fact that if you want to be strong and prosperous, you have to rely on these people, and the strange circle that Central China is now in is that the old family is unwilling to let go of power for its own interests, but it has to rely on sectarian forces to resist the extraordinary, which has created a strange phenomenon that Central China is now an extraordinary forbidden land, and the transcendent outside cannot enter, and the inside cannot get out.
Over the years, the prestige and status of Central China have become higher and higher, but there are fewer and fewer small countries in the international community that are willing to cooperate deeply with Central China, for the simple reason that you cannot give others due asylum.
Other countries can send their extraordinary forces to those small countries to make trouble, can you guarantee the safety of those little brothers who have taken refuge in you?
You can't....
This is also the reason why the official has fallen into a bottleneck in the world's influence, others can use the transcendent to blatantly collect protection fees in the world, but you can only look at this huge market, you can't reach out, a force that can only protect itself, how to persuade others to cooperate with you?
After a long time, as the power of the transcendent develops better and better, the official will become more and more isolated by the international community, which .... These old-fashioned families can't see it, all they can see is their own interests.....
So he was very unhappy, if it weren't for the family's position, he actually wanted to defect to a pragmatist like Li Lao, instead of being like this group of old men, who looked like he was worried about the country and the people all day long, but he did something that harmed the interests of the country and benefited the small profits!
"But Old Hu, now the official family blindly listens to the words of Li Chongshan's group of villains, only wants immediate interests, and completely ignores the overall situation, how can we wait?"
"Humph!" As soon as Hu Lao remembered Li Lao's proud appearance of the villain this morning, he was furious, and said coldly: "Let's take a look first, the surname Li now has a reliance, let's see how hard his reliance is, there are so many transcendent forces on the border, that sect is so big, only send two people, I don't have to do anything, just watch him overturn, when the time comes, we will have a lot to say." ”
"Hu Lao is right..... But....." One of the old men's voices hesitated a little: "But I have also heard that the sect behind the Liu family kid seems to be very remarkable, and even the Yunshan faction has been defeated, although it is a little big, I am afraid that the strength is still there...."
When the surrounding people heard this, they all fell silent, this is not afraid of 10,000, just in case, what if the two people in the family really have that strength?
Old Hu's face also became a little solemn, and after a quarter of an hour of silence, he said to the nearest old people: "The house said..."
Several of the highest-ranking old men accompanied Hu Lao into the house, while the rest of the people waited in the courtyard hall.
After entering the inner hall, Hu Lao sat in the first place, looked at a few old people who were the same age as him, and said with a gloomy face: "Everyone, now that the situation is urgent, we must not let Li Chongshan's group of people succeed, once the transcendent forces are mixed into the official, there will be endless disasters, and I am afraid that there will be a disaster of bad people in the Tang Dynasty!" ”
When all the old men heard this, they all nodded with heavy faces.
"What does Hu Lao mean?"
"That's the only way to do it now....."
Saying that, Hu Lao lowered his voice and said his thoughts, and when several old people heard it, their faces suddenly changed: "This.... This...."
"Everyone!" Hu Lao said in a deep voice: "If it wasn't for the last resort, I wouldn't have thought of this step, but now the situation is so dangerous, I have to do it, do big things without being informal, this is also to maintain the overall situation....."
Several old men looked at each other when they heard this, and after a while, the hesitation in their eyes finally disappeared, turned into a trace of fierceness, and they nodded one after another: "Hu Lao is right, in order to take care of the overall situation, some small sacrifices are also forced to ......"
