Gu Rumei's two female bodyguards were also introduced through Du Yuesheng, they are not very old, they are only sixteen or seventeen years old, one is called Guo Yanru and the other is Li Fengsheng.

Du Yuesheng watched Du Rong and Du Lan study with Qin Di for a few years, and soon broke through the dark energy and became a rare master in the rivers and lakes, so she recommended the daughters of the two backbones of the Qing Gang to Gu Rumei.

Every time she finished playing the piano, because it was too late, Gu Rumei would not cross the river, but lived in a house not far from the Qin Mansion. There is Qin Di's office nearby, and before ten o'clock in the evening, there are people on duty there.

It was only nine o'clock when Gu Rumei returned to her residence, and through the screen window, she could see the office not far away with bright lights.

Yan Xue usually sleeps late, because she is a cultivator, and it is enough to rest for two or three hours a day.

And a foundation-building monk like Qin Di, if he is left in the other world, he doesn't even need to sleep, he just needs to close his eyes and meditate.

But because of the lack of spiritual energy in the demon capital, even if he meditated every day, it didn't have much effect, so he just absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and gave up the meditation of the three watches in the middle of the night.

Gu Rumei walked over quietly, and before she came to the door of the office, she heard Yan Xue's voice from inside: "Huh, Amei has broken through the realm, congratulations!"

Gu Rumei walked in and saw Qin Di sitting in the Taishi chair flipping through the materials, with a stack of newspapers on the left and company reports on the right, and Yan Xue sitting opposite him, seemingly reading a bunch of English newspapers.

Qin Di glanced up at her and said with a smile: "Yes, you are finally out of the ordinary!"

Gu Rumei's heart was both excited and a little uneasy, feeling that she had stepped into an unknown realm, and asked, "Sir, what are the benefits of being a cultivator?"

Qin Di said: "There are at least two benefits! One can prolong life, and the other can gain greater freedom, just like the Dapeng bird, the clouds, the sky, soaring in the sky." ”

"But sir, why don't you become a Dapeng bird, but live in the world, willing to be burdened by these mundane things?"

"Hehe, that's a good question. The ancients said that if you are good, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be good to yourself. As a cultivator, while gaining more freedom, you also shoulder greater responsibilities, and you have to bear the constraints of the Heavenly Dao, for example, you have the ability to kill people, but you can't kill people at will, and you have the ability to display peerless martial arts, but you can't show them in front of people at will......

Buddhism has a kind of 'fearless seal', also known as 'fearless generosity', just like when we face birds, beasts and insects, we should have compassion and not cause fright to them......

Walk to prevent the life of mole ants, cherish the moth gauze cover lamp...... This is the mentality that a cultivator should have......"

"Sir, can a cultivator live forever?"

"It's hard to say, because of the lack of aura, I don't know how far you can go on the immortal path. The pursuit of immortality is a process, you don't have to be too deliberate, you should eat, you should drink, you should marry, you can marry someone. ”

Gu Rumei smiled bitterly: "Can I still get married? As soon as I enter the cultivation gate, I am as deep as the sea, and I will be a hundred years ......old when I look back."

Qin Di groaned: "If you want to open up, marrying a mortal is not impossible, in the story of "Liao Zhai", there are many fairies like that. ”

In fact, in the fairy world, at least half of the fairies would rather remain celibate, because the cultivators are at ease, happy, and incomparable, and have been detached from the low-level interests between men and women......

Gu Rumei turned to ask, "Sir, what do you do when you read so many newspapers every day?"

Qin Di said: "I am here to kill time and understand the world better. You see, there is a newspaper from Beiping here, saying that Pu Yi wants to restore the imperial system in Manchukuo, and he is going to ascend the throne as emperor again!"

"Hmph! He is the emperor of the puppet Manchukuo, not the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty is dead!"

"Do you know how big Manchukuo is?"

"I don't know. ”

"I didn't know before, but after reading the newspaper, I found out that Manchukuo includes the three eastern provinces, Rehe, and part of Inner Mongolia and Hebei, and the southern border is next to Beiping!"

On the other side, Yan Xue couldn't help but interject: "The newspaper also said that the Japanese have made a lot of investment in Manchukuo and specially prepared a five-year development plan, I don't understand, why is this?"

Qin Di said: "This shows that they are very ambitious, and they are not satisfied with grabbing a handful and leaving, but want to treat Korea and Northeast China as part of Japan, and on this basis, they will annex North China and the whole of China." Think about it, as an ambitious robber, when he sees a small village and has no resistance, does he rush in and smash it, collect treasures, and turn around and leave? Or is it better to enslave the people of the village and let them cultivate the land, develop the mines, and provide resources continuously?"

Yan Xue said: "Of course, the latter lasts for a long time, and there are more things to grab." ”

Gu Rumei said: "I also heard a few days ago that the Japanese did not hesitate to withdraw from the 'League of Nations' in order to occupy the Northeast. ”

Qin Di nodded and said, "That's because the League of Nations voted 40:1 to believe that Manchukuo belonged to China and asked Japan to withdraw from Manchuria. ”

Yan Xue added: "The newspaper also mentioned that up to now, excluding the Kwantung Army, there have been more than 350,000 Japanese civilians in Northeast China! Japan plans to emigrate 1 million households and 5 million people within 20 years...... Japan has many companies in Tohoku, Manchuria Railway Co., Ltd., Manchuria Telecommunications and Telephone Co., Ltd., Manchuria Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Manchuria Coal Development Co., Ltd., Manchuria Petroleum Co., Ltd., Manchuria Textile Co., Ltd., Manchuria Chemical Co., Ltd., Manchuria Forestry Co., Ltd., Manchuria Fisheries Co., Ltd., Manchuria Tobacco Co., Ltd., ...... All the industries that make money are monopolized by them...... The Chinese who live there, it's a crime to even eat rice......"

Gu Rumei was dedicated to practicing the piano on weekdays, and she didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Northeast, so she couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this, and said: "In this way, the Japanese have turned the Northeast into a colony?

Qin Di said: "Pu Yi became the emperor, half of it was voluntary, and half of it was coerced. At the end of 1931, the Japanese secretly took Pu Yi away from the Japanese concession in Tianjin, established Manchukuo in the spring of 1932, and prepared to ascend the throne and claim the throne this year! The Japanese forced him to sign the 'Japan-Manchurian Protocol,' stipulating that Manchuria's national defense, railways, minerals, and aviation were all under the control of the Japanese, and that the Japanese had the right to act as Manchurian officials and to emigrate to Manchuria......"

At this, he felt depressed in his heart, and felt the need to go to the northeast again to see if there was anything to plunder. Although he can't wantonly kill people, it's still okay to secretly sabotage! We can't let the Japanese rule Northeast so easily! Don't the Japanese have the money to develop Northeast China? Then let them continue to inject capital into it!

Originally, on the basis of the banks of the three eastern provinces, the Kwantung Army merged the Frontier Bank, the Bank of Jilin and the Bank of Heilongjiang to establish the "Puppet Manchurian Central Bank", and then issued a large number of banknotes.

Qin Di regretted a little, at that time, he only robbed the official bank of Fengtian Bank and the Bank of the Three Eastern Provinces, and did not touch the Bank of Jilin and the Bank of Heilongjiang, otherwise the life of the puppet Manchukuo would be even more sad.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be excited, pushed the report, got up and said, "That's it, the night is deep, go back and rest in peace!"

So Gu Rumei had no choice but to turn around and go back inexplicably.
