Chapter 18 Must We Compromise with Ancient Rules?

Lin Yuan called the captain of the tax collection team to the compartment, then smiled and took out a few red envelopes, "Official, you have worked hard, be careful, please smile."

In the 21st century, where the society is relatively just and governed by the rule of law, it is inevitable that we need to go through the back door to do things, let alone in this ancient era when the political environment was extremely backward. If she wants to survive more than a thousand years back in ancient times, shouldn't she uphold Darwin's principle of "natural selection, survival of the fittest"?

Thinking about it this way, she did not despise her flattery so much.

Who knows, the team leader refused her red envelope without thinking. He came to Yunlaiqi today with a specific order from his boss to collect taxes, and the triennial promotion and salary increase will begin soon, so he must perform well and seize the opportunity.

"Boss Lin, you should hurry up and pay the taxes in full, if it drags on, we will have to close the store."

Lin Yuan observed his words and saw his impatience. She suppressed the injustice in her heart and put out a reluctant smile: "Then you wait a minute, I'll settle it right away." ”

The team leader snorted two breaths in his nostrils, and said with satisfaction: "Boss Lin, you have to be a man, and it's best to hold your tail in front of people who shouldn't be messed with." “

Lin Kite's white face turned crimson, embarrassed and resentful, annoyed that he was taught to be a man by this kind of small miscellaneous that tends to be inflammatory; Hate is that he is not capable enough to fight back. In her previous life, she relied on her own ability and hard work to get to the position of project director step by step, could it be that in ancient times, people like herself without backstage external assistance could not succeed?

No, if success must have a backstage, then her only backstage is only herself, and she must be herself.

After adjusting your emotions. She raised her standard smile for business hospitality again, "Yes, sir, what you said is true. I'll pay attention later. ”

After obediently paying taxes according to the new standard, Lin Yuan sat in front of the hall, stunned, on the surface, this phenomenon seems to have been solved, but the root of the problem is whether she can insist, is it a compromise to power? Or do you insist on the fair rules that the auction house itself should follow?

At the beginning of the establishment of Lin's auction house, it encountered this unspoken rule of human nature, which made Lin Kite somewhat frustrated.

At this time, Xiaobai went downstairs, she was in a happy mood, and took the initiative to greet Lin Kite: "Hey, Boss Lin, what are you thinking?" Seems to have encountered something troublesome? ”

Lin Yuan smiled and did not continue to answer her.

Xiaobai sat opposite her again, poured her a cup of tea instead, and gently comforted: "Although what I have experienced is simple and lackluster, but the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear, maybe I can also inspire you from the side!" ”

Xiaobai's voice was like a cotton wool white cloud floating in the May sky, gentle and soft, which made Lin Kite's restless heart also be soothed by ironing.

"Suppose reality forces you to change your principles? Will you change? ”

Lin Kite's question was unexpected by Xiaobai. Xiaobai tilted his head and pondered for a moment, and then replied seriously: "I will protest, maybe my protest will be ineffective, but I must work hard for my principles or beliefs, right?" ”

When she heard that she was pointed out by her brother Wang to Fengyu's new emperor, she was sad and indignant, she didn't eat tea and dinner, and then got the opportunity, she immediately fled from the royal capital of Huangdian, and now she is in exile, living in no fixed place, and the palace brocade clothes and jade food are not the same, but she never regrets her struggle and efforts for the marriage event.

Xiaobai's words are simple and unpretentious, but they have a low and majestic power.

Lin Yuan looked at her curiously, very curious about Xiaobai's life experience. Xiaobai also empathized with Lin Kite's emotions, and actually had a heartfelt meaning. She said: "My brother promised me to marry a man I had never met, and my objection was invalid, so I secretly escaped from the house. ”

Lin Yuan has always guessed that Xiaobai is the daughter of a powerful person who has escaped from home, and now she has to testify in person - exactly the same. It's just that this reason is very similar to the beginning of a Mary Sue novel she read in high school. She smiled, but looking at Xiao Bai's Xiao Suo's eyes, she couldn't bear it, so she followed Xiao Bai's words and said, "If I were you, I would definitely run away." ”

In her previous life, she did escape - at the blind date banquet planned for her by her mother, she went to the toilet and fled the blind date scene, and from then on, the matchmaker who had a lot of high-quality resources would never introduce Lin Yuan to the object.

Xiaobai is like a fellow believer, "Therefore, you must also be like me, and rise up to resist everything you hate." ”

Lin Yuan was infected by her optimism and bravery, and nodded subconsciously, "Mmmm, I will definitely stick to my bottom line." I haven't seen you in person, so I'm curious what you look like. ”

Maybe it was the conversation just now that shortened the distance between the two, Xiao Bai looked around, and saw that there was no one in the hall for the time being, so he lifted the veil and smiled at Lin Yuan: "Boss Lin, help me keep it secret." ”

Xiaobai's alluring appearance made the hall eclipsed in an instant. The contours of her facial features are extremely beautiful, and no words of praise can describe one ten-thousandth, she is simply a stunner in the world bred by the aura of heaven and earth.

Lin Yuan was shocked, and finally smiled inferiorly, "I have never seen such a beautiful girl as you." ”

Even in modern times, no matter how developed the plastic surgery technology is, no matter how advanced the aesthetics, Lin Yuan has never seen such a special woman who is so beautiful, this extreme beauty is not aggressive, gentle and harmless, but it has an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty.

Yes, it is a kind of beauty that can make the world crazy, but it can be a mother of the world. Lin Yuan had this sentence in his mind, and said sneeringly: "You should be born as a queen." ”

Xiaobai's smile froze for a moment, and then he smiled freely: "What's so fun about the queen, I still like the colorful folk life." ”

Once her life was filled with piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and tea, elegant and tranquil, but there was less vivid and vivid fun, when she stepped into the territory of Jinzhou, the customs and customs of Jinzhou City and other things attracted her to like, even if it was "to do" she also felt more exciting than the palace. If given a choice, she would rather be the wife of a commoner than be the queen of Rausch.

Lin Yuan was deeply immersed in her peerless beauty, and did not chew Xiaobai's words, she said: "You should be one of the women who can change the general trend of the world in the prediction of the old man of Tianji." ”

Xiaobai put on the veil again and asked curiously: "Can the general trend of the world be influenced by women?" ”

"Of course, since ancient times, history has slandered beautiful women as a disaster for the country and the people, like Bao Xi, Yang Yuhuan, Chen Yuanyuan, what does the fall of the world have to do with them. But since history has made us suffer injustice, why don't we women sit on this "crime" and turn the world upside down, so that they can take a good look at women's abilities. Lin Yuan talked about the past and the present, and her emotions burst out with excitement and generosity, and even Xiaobai, who was listening, was stunned, and she muttered: "Boss Lin, maybe you are the woman who changes the general trend of the world." But Bao Xi, why haven't I heard of Yang Yuhuan? ”

Lin Kite came back to her senses and realized that the time and space she traveled through was not recorded in the history books, and this dynasty was not in the historical records.

She deliberately did not directly answer Xiaobai's doubts, and sneered: "How can I be the one who changed the history of Zhongzhou, I am just a little ordinary person." There is no grand ambition, and there is no such monstrous means. ”

At this time, a low, slightly playful voice came from behind her: "Yes, you are one of the three women." ”
