Chapter 605 Selling Fame and Reputation
Qiao Feng was stunned, the people who interacted with him were all strong martial artists, how could they beg?
Qiao Feng only felt that what the master said didn't make sense, but he didn't know how to refute it.
Huang Shang said: "Do you think the heroes of the beggar gang should not beg, if they don't call them the beggar gang, just call them another name, of course, then all their chivalrous behavior is very respectable." ”
Qiao Feng couldn't help asking, "What about calling the beggars?" ”
Huang Shang said: "The beggar gang is known as the largest gang in the world, not only because of this group of heroes with strong martial arts, but also because they have hundreds of thousands of gangs. But these hundreds of thousands of people are beggars living at the bottom of society. In other gangs, the leaders try their best to make their gangs live a good life, but the leaders of the beggar gangs try their best to push their gangs to death at the bottom of society, and hope that the more such people there are, the better. They put a few patches on their clothes and made themselves beggars, so that real beggars think that they are the same people and are willingly driven by them. They use these lowest-level beggars to listen to all kinds of news, strengthen their own momentum, and achieve their own chivalrous name. The benefits of the reputation of the beggars are exclusively enjoyed by their group, and the real beggars still kneel in the streets and beg for some scraps. ”
Huang Shang's words made Qiao Feng speechless, these social problems are far from being understood by people of his age, and they can't tell right from wrong.
Huang Sheng took a sip of tea and continued: "Putting these aside, let's just talk about my background. What do I think of the beggars, you ask? I was born in a scholarly family, and now I also have a lot of money, I hope that everyone who has the ability to work can be self-reliant and create wealth, and I am against getting something for nothing. The beggar and I are two extremes of social class, inherently incompatible. Scholars pay attention to self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country and leveling the world. If I really devote myself to a career and am a person with great ambitions, then my ideal is to eliminate the beggars of the world. ”
Qiao Feng was shocked, of course he understood that the "elimination of beggars" that the master said was not physical annihilation, but so that no one in the world would have to live by begging, what kind of grand wish was this?
Huang Shang asked, "If you join the Beggar Gang, do you want the Beggar Gang to become strong or decline?" If you want the beggars to be strong, you want more and more people to ask for food. ”
"This ......"
If you are a member of the beggar gang, of course, you should hope that the beggar gang will be strong, but should you want more and more people to be poor?
Huang Shang laughed mockingly and said, "The so-called chivalry is just helping the needy. Help the needy, the beggars even help the country's danger, and be the great hero. As for the needy, is there anyone in the world who needs more relief than a beggar? Why are your own people poor? ”
"Because it can't be helped, it can't be helped. The heroes of this group of beggars would rather give their money to outsiders than their own people. What kind of hero is it called to give money to others? Only by giving money to outsiders and using outsiders' mouths to raise their own reputation, their own people are used for exploitation. Once you don't want to be a beggar anymore, is there still a beggar gang? ”
Qiao Feng was dumbfounded, the beggar friends he had always made were a group of rough men, could he have such a deep heart?
Huang Sheng finally said: "Feng'er, I won't stop you if you want to do anything, and you can't join the beggar gang if you want to." Maybe because of my background, I look down on the beggars, but I also think that it is really unrealistic to let a group of people who can't survive be kind, and I shouldn't think so. The low-level life of the beggars is by no means what you see Wang Jiantong and Ma Dayuan, and you can't imagine the ugliness hidden there. In my opinion, the upper echelons of the beggar gang are all selling their reputations, and would rather spend their energy to assassinate the enemy commander and promote their own reputation, rather than find a way to change the lives of the people at the bottom. And I told you a long time ago that you can't defend the country by relying on a group of heroes, and what the beggars do is actually meaningless. ”
Qiao Feng left with a stomach full of questions.
Li Canghai said to Huang Shang: "The beggar gang has made you so degraded, Feng'er should also wake up." Don't talk about him, I've never thought so much about the beggars. ”
Huang Shang said: "I don't bother to say anything more ugly, as for whether Feng'er can wake up, it's hard to say." ”
Li Canghai was surprised: "Do you think Feng'er will not listen to you?" ”
Huang Shang said: "Feng'er is not an obedient child in this regard, he has his own ideas. ”
After so many lifetimes, Huang Sheng has a feeling that the inertia of the original work is very great, and there are many things that do not go with their own will, but will follow the original work.
It is also Huang Shang's character who does not force anything, unless he can cross over to Qiao Feng, how Qiao Feng chooses, Huang Sheng really can't say.
Wang Jiantong's poison was resolved, and his martial arts never recovered, so he stayed at Huang Shang's house and did not leave, often visiting Huang Shang, trying to change Huang Shang's attitude towards him, and also wanted to find out whether his martial arts could be restored.
Saving Wang Jiantong's life is already Huang Shang's limit, and it is absolutely impossible to let Huang Sheng spend his own skills to save him. And after the poison was completely resolved, Huang Sheng didn't even give him the precious medicinal materials, and if he wanted to nourish his body, he would find a way to do it himself, and the beggar gang leader was not qualified to use the medicinal materials carefully prepared by Huang Sheng like this.
Huang Sheng wanted to give Wang Jiantong an eviction order, but considering Qiao Feng's face, Huang Sheng said to Qiao Feng: "Wang Jiantong's poison is fine, if his martial arts are not restored, it is useless to stay, and he always bothers me here." I'm not in Quanzhou, I'm hiding in Yanping, just because it's clean enough here, I want to study and prepare for the imperial examination, you go and let them leave. ”
Qiao Feng was very embarrassed, he was not a yellow dress, his face sank, and he could say anything unkind.
Qiao Feng was young, and when he was thin-skinned and wanted to save face, even if he listened to Huang Shang's words and had reservations about the beggar gang, he naturally respected seniors like Wang Jiantong and let him drive away his friends, which was a little indelible.
However, Qiao Feng knew that he really had to speak by himself, if he let Huang Sheng or Li Canghai say it, it would be straightforward, simple and clear, without a little turn, and without saving a little face.
Qiao Feng went to visit Wang Jiantong and said, "Gang Master Wang, how is your body recovering?" ”
Wang Jiantong smiled bitterly: "It's still the same, if you want to fully recover, it's difficult!" Difficult! Difficult! ”
Qiao Feng said: "I went to ask my master, your poison has been completely solved,"
Wang Jian channel: "If martial arts can't be recovered, it's like taking my life." If we Jianghu people have no martial arts, how can we be called Jianghu people? ”
Qiao Feng said: "My master said that martial arts are slowly recuperated, and he has no good way. Alas, it's just that I didn't learn this skill from Master back then, if I had the ability to detoxify the helper at that time, instead of running so far and delaying, maybe the helper's martial arts would have been restored long ago. ”
