Chapter 25: Greed
Abstract: Human greed is the original sin, and Long Xiang and his son are ready to use this to track down the mastermind behind the scenes.
After visiting Zhang Yu's space and knowing that these grains could be produced in a steady stream in the future, Father Long finally felt at ease and had no scruples, so they began to discuss some follow-up matters.
After discussing, that night, Zhang Yu and the three of them went to the Long family's warehouse together in a low-key manner, and quietly put this batch of grain into it in the dead of night.
After the grain was placed, Father Long told several elders in the family to reassure them, signaling that the food was now in place and put it in the family warehouse.
Food is already in place?
The elders of the family didn't believe it at first, but when they went to the warehouse to check it out for themselves, they found that it was really the case, although they were very puzzled by this, but seeing that the dragon father did not intend to explain to them, they were smart enough not to ask more, now, as long as the things are in place, everything else is not important.
Several elders have experienced a lot of ups and downs, they can see everything openly, they can see it thoroughly, they don't care, they don't get to the bottom of it, but it doesn't mean that all the people of the Long family don't care. This magical thing was accidentally leaked out, and it had slowly spread privately in the Long family.
"Have you heard, in the warehouse of our family, there are suddenly a lot of extra materials out of thin air, and there must be a reason for it." The junior of the Long family, the inquisitive type.
“……”
"Well, I've heard about this too! However, with this batch of food, we can survive this flood. "The junior of the Long family, the rational type.
“……”
"I heard that only the patriarch was seen going in that night." The junior of the Long family, the gossip type.
“……”
Soon, all kinds of rumors began to spread below, but most of the people who said these words were those juniors in the family, and the older generation of people had a lot of experience, and most of them would not act rashly when they encountered problems, and even if they were, they were not visible and undetectable.
"Although, we predicted this situation before, but I didn't expect it to spread so quickly, who spread this matter?" Hearing the people below talking everywhere, Zhang Yu's heart was very annoyed.
"This is also a matter of no choice, originally, this time Xiao Qing is not clean, his father is Chengruo, whether he leaves or not is voluntary, some people are the people behind the scenes, but they have not been cleaned out. At this particular time, my father didn't want to break with them completely. Anyway, Long Xiang frowned, these people staying, sooner or later it will be a scourge, as the saying goes: thieves are difficult to prevent.
"In this way, if these people stay, sooner or later there will be trouble." Hearing Long Xiang's words, Zhang Yu said a little worriedly.
"Well, these people are very good at playing with people's hearts, especially the juniors in the family, who are young and vigorous, and are easily instigated by people with intentions, and these young people happen to be the hope of the family's future, so they must be treated with caution." Speaking of these, Long Xiang couldn't help but think of his younger brother Long Zheng, Long Zheng was also instigated and used by people with a heart because he was young and vigorous, so Long Xiang has always hated these people.
"So, what should I do about this?" Zhang Yu had never experienced these complicated things, so after hearing Long Xiang's words, he was a little at a loss.
"Don't worry, my father and I will take care of these things." Seeing Zhang Yu's helplessness, Long Xiang patted her hand and comforted her, it was his long-cherished wish for many years to deal with these people.
"Yes, I see." Hearing Long Xiang's words, Zhang Yu replied in a low voice, she really couldn't help with these things, and she didn't want to help because of her ignorance, so she simply decided to do nothing.
Zhang Yu is a very rational person, and he dares to admit his own shortcomings and ignorance, if, knowing that he can't do it, he still has to intervene forcefully, and as a result, he does bad things with good intentions, that is the most irrational and the most pathetic way. Zhang Yu has read so many ancient books, she knows this truth very well, of course she will not knowingly commit it.
In the following time, in order not to cause trouble to Long Xiang, Zhang Yu always lived in seclusion, and Long Xiang was happy to see her move in order to protect her and not involve her in this turmoil.
Long Xiang and the two fathers and sons often talk about what they are plotting together, Zhang Yu has not intervened in this, however, after the two fathers and sons discussed, they did not take any big moves, many things are like this, the more you show that you care, the more people will work, and thus entangle, but if you don't care at all, people will slowly stop, Father Long is an old Jianghu, and he knows everything about this kind of thing.
He believes that this matter will slowly subside after the people's excitement has passed, and only those who have a heart will continue to pay attention, and at that time, their fox tail will be exposed. And it's because of this that when this matter gets out, he won't make any moves, and he can catch a big fish by putting a long line, isn't it?
After so many years of accumulation, the Long family has a deep heritage and a lot of resources, although now because of the coming of the end times, the family's things are consumed a lot, but the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, how can those radicals be willing to leave so easily.
Before, the group of people who left were just the front troops, maybe among the people who left, there were really a few core figures, but Long Xiang and his son believed that the real core must still be in the Long family, how could these people be willing to leave the entire family to the conservative people they looked down on, they would definitely continue to dig the corners of the Long family, until the entire Long family was hollowed out, leaving an empty shell, they would not stop.
The greed of the human heart is a kind of original sin, and Long Xiang and Zhang's father knew this and planned to take advantage of it, so they had what they did before.
Zhang Yu and Long Xiang's practice of bringing a lot of material things to the family is a good thing, but some people are like this, if you give them something, he will feel that you will definitely leave more things for himself, so they will become more greedy, they don't even think about it, people just fund you, but you want to pull people out because you know that people have something.
is insatiable and repays virtue with resentment, but that's it, but most of the people who are overly greedy will not have a good result.
