Chapter 150 Create A Peaceful And Prosperous World Without Beggars?
Not long after, Elder Lai came to the palace and met Emperor Lin Beifan of Great Xia.
Although I knew that Lin Beifan was very young, I didn't expect him to be so young at all. It's all about being young, it's a skill to be able to develop a country so well at a young age, heroes come out of youth!
"Elder Lai Qing of the Beggar Clan, I have met Emperor Daxia!" Elder Lai cupped his hands and said neither humble nor overbearing.
Lin Beifan said with a smile: "Elder Lai is very welcome! I heard that you led the team this time, and you want to develop the Beggar Clan here and spread its branches and leaves! Half a month has passed, what have you gained?~"
Elder Lai thought of what happened in these days, and felt worried, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching: "Thank you, Emperor Daxia, for your concern. After half a month of hard work, we have gained very little so far, so let's not mention it!"
Lin Beifan comforted and encouraged: "Elder Lai, don't be discouraged! God rewards hard work, and the sky pays off. You should continue to work hard! If you don't work hard, you will never know what despair is, haha!"
Elder Lai felt a stab in the heart!
Since you already know, why do you still want to say it, don't you know that people feel sad?
Seeing the other party's villainous face, I wanted to punch him.
But he held back, if he really did something, he might not be able to get out of the palace.
Resisting the anger in his heart, he asked: "Emperor Daxia, did you ask me to come here just to laugh at me?"
Lin Beifan shook his head, and said with a smile: "Of course not! I invited you here, just to tell you a truth, as long as I am still in Daxia, you beggars will never have a bright future!"
Elder Lai was provoked, very displeased, and wanted to leave.
"Emperor Daxia, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave!"
"Don't rush away!" Lin Beifan beckoned: "It's rare to meet an expert from the beggar gang. I have never left Daxia, and I am very curious about the outside world! Sit down, we are like friends Let's chat with each other!"
Elder Lai thought about it, and now he had nothing to do when he went back, so he simply sat down.
But his face was still stiff: "What are we talking about?"
"Let's chat casually! Elder Lai, you have been in Daxia for a few days, what do you think of my Daxia?" Lin Beifan asked with a smile like a friend after drinking a cup of tea.
"Big Xia!" Elder Lai recalled what he had seen and heard these days, and said unconsciously: "The land area of the building has reached 1.5 million square miles, with a population of 18 million and a total force of 2 million. Among the big countries, it can be regarded as a top-ranking country!"
"The most important thing is that the people in the region can live and work in peace and contentment, and have enough food and clothing! This situation is very rare. I have traveled to hundreds of countries, and there are many dynasties and dynasties, but I have never seen a country treat the people so kindly. Let people live the life they want!"
"For such a country, I don't know how to evaluate it, but what one person said, the Tibetan doctor very much agrees!"
"What words?" Lin Beifan asked.
"It's not a dynasty, victory is a dynasty!"
"Well said!" Lin Beifan laughed happily.
Elder Lai turned his head to look at Lin Beifan, and said with great admiration: "You are a good emperor, a good emperor who sincerely serves the people!"
"But I am such a good emperor, but others call me a fool! The family blocks me, the surrounding countries isolate me, and there are many people who want to kill me, wishing to cut me into pieces......
Lin Beifan knocked on the table lightly, and asked word by word: "Elder Lai, do you think all this is reasonable?"
Elder Lai opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.
Of course this is unreasonable!
But this is often the truth of society!
The truth is so cruel!
Lin Beifan continued: "We have been educated to be a good person since we were young, but after you step out of society, everyone is forcing you to be a bad person! When you do bad things, others will educate you in turn. It is wrong for you to do this. You cannot Do this! But when you become a good person, they will persecute you even more!"
"Elder Lai, it's hard to be a man, and it's even more difficult to be a good man, don't you think?"
Elder Lai nodded sympathetically.
It's hard to be a man, but it's even harder to be a good man!
It also took him decades to comprehend this profound truth!
But at such a young age, Lin Beifan has already realized the cruelty of society!
This young man is not easy!
"Forget it, let's not mention these sad things, let's talk about your beggar gang!" Lin Beifan waved his hand and asked with a smile: "Elder Lai, I would like to ask how many disciples your beggar gang has arranged to lurk in Summer?"
"About 320!" Elder Lai said.
Originally, this kind of thing was confidential and could not be told to outsiders.
However, the beggar gang brothers here have already finished their rebellion, and there is no point in keeping it a secret, so they said it out.
"Then do you know how many disciples of the beggar gang joined my court?" Lin Beifan asked again.
The corner of Elder Lai's mouth twitched slightly, isn't this poking his heart again?
The little emperor was too rude, so he chose not to answer.
Lin Beifan raised a finger: "About 1,000 people!"
Elder Lai looked over in shock: "Why are there 600 more?"
"Because the beggar gang disciples from other countries also went to Daxia to serve me, Elder Lai, you don't know? Haha..."
Elder Lai's face twitched fiercely. He really didn't know because he hadn't received any news.
The reason why I didn't receive the news is that the following didn't pass the news up.
Why didn't the news come up.........
I'm afraid they are the same as the previous people. In order to avoid being liquidated and punished by the beggar gang, they took the initiative to cut off the connection with the beggar gang and sneaked to Daxia.
When he thought that the beggar gang lost thousands of outstanding disciples, he felt very heartbroken.
"Do you know why they joined Daxia?" Lin Beifan asked again.
Elder Lai actually knew the answer, but he still didn't want to say it.
Lin Beifan went on to say: "Because they want to live a good life, they want to be famous, they want to make a fortune! And I provide them with such an opportunity!"
"As long as they work hard enough and are willing to endure hardships, they will be able to eat enough to earn money, afford a house and escape their wives, and live the good life they dream of!"
"As long as they are good enough and work hard enough, they will have the opportunity to become officials, stand out, and make a fortune!"
"The beggar gang can't give them all this, but I can! So, they all ran to me! And now, they also get everything they want!"
Lin Beifan smiled and said: "As far as I know, more than 200 disciples of the beggar gang have entered the court as officials! The highest official is already a fifth-rank general, and he has thousands of people under his command! He has already bought a big house." , married a wife and two concubines, and lived a prosperous life!"
"Although the others are not as good as this general, they are all doing well. The minimum is a corporal leader who manages a few people and gets a good salary. Bai Zi is very beautiful!"
"Among the 1,000 disciples of the beggar gang, 200 have become officials! Although the others have not been officials, they have worked hard enough and performed well! I have to say, your beggar gang is really talented!"
Elder Lai's face twitched again.
These people, of course, are talented!
Although they are all beggars, they are also carefully selected, not to mention one in a hundred, at least one in ten, and they are considered relatively good among beggars.
In addition, in order to train them, their beggar gang also put in a lot of hard work, teaching them to read and write, and teaching them to practice martial arts.
At this time, it was time for them to repay the beggars' gang, but they were wiped out by the Daxia court!
Especially when he thought of the few young people he valued, who are now thrown into Da Xia's arms, his heart bleeds again.
"Elder Lai, do you think their choice is right?"
Lin Beifan said in a heavy tone: "You think they betrayed the Beggars' Sect and took refuge in Daxia, right?"
Elder Lai sighed: "It doesn't matter right or wrong. Everyone has the right to pursue happiness. This is their choice. This old man respects their choice! But after all, they used to be disciples of the beggar gang, and they have a long history... ..
Elder Lai cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, please treat them kindly, I am very grateful!"
"They serve me, so I naturally treat them kindly! Speaking of which, I have to ask you..." Lin Beifan asked with a smile: "The group of beggar gang disciples are all pursuing their own happiness. Elder Lai What are you pursuing? Or, what do you most want to do now, and what do you most want to get?"
"The old man's pursuit..."
Elder Lai was caught in the memory, and slowly said: "To be honest, Emperor Daxia, your words touched my heart! I have many pursuits, and different ages have different pursuits!"
"I would like to hear more about it!" Lin Beifan said, pretending to listen carefully.
"When I was young, the old man was a beggar, wandering around begging for food! At that time, the old man's pursuit was very simple, that is to be able to eat enough and not hungry!"
Lin Beifan nodded: "Food is the most important thing for the people, it's human nature!"
"Later, the old man joined the beggars' gang, and after he became a disciple of Erbao, his pursuit changed! Not only did the old man want to have enough to eat, but he also hoped that the people under his command would also have enough to eat, so that everyone can live!"
Lin Beifan nodded again: "If you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world. Very good!"
"Later, the old man became an elder, and his pursuit changed again! The old man hopes that the beggars' gang will grow stronger, and that the brothers of the beggars' gang will no longer be oppressed, no longer suffer from cold and hunger, and can live like human beings!"
Elder Lai's eyes lit up: "This is my pursuit in this life, and I am willing to fight for it for the rest of my life!"
However, Lin Beifan frowned: "This pursuit... To be honest, I really don't agree with it!"
"Why don't you agree? As an elder of the Beggar Gang, I hope that the Beggar Gang will grow stronger, and that the brothers of the Beggar Gang will not suffer any more. Is there anything wrong with that?" Elder Lai retorted loudly.
"Of course it's wrong, and it's really wrong!" Lin Beifan asked loudly: "I ask you, how should the beggar gang develop in order to grow stronger?"
Elder Lai said without hesitation: "Of course, the more people the better, the stronger the better!"
"Not to mention anything else, how did you increase the number of beggars?"
"Of course it is to attract more outstanding beggars to join the beggars' gang!"
"What kind of person would be a beggar?"
"Of course, people who have no house, no money, and no job will become beggars and beg for a living!"
"That's where the problem comes in. If your beggar gang wants to grow and grow, you can only recruit beggars, but all beggars come from people who have no house, no money, and no job! So, Elder Lai..."
0......seeking flowers......
Lin Beifan's voice became sharp: "You hope that there will be more and more beggars, don't you? You hope that there will be frequent wars in the world, and the people will have to live in poverty, so they will have to become beggars, right?"
Elder Lai turned pale with shock: "Emperor Daxia, don't splash dirty water indiscriminately, this old man didn't mean that..."
"But what you mean in your words is exactly what you mean! Who would want to be a beggar in the days of peace?"
"Ah this..."
"Nothing to say?"
Lin Beifan sneered: "So your pursuit deviates from the pursuit of the people in the world! The more chaotic the world is, the more your beggars' gang will grow stronger! If the world is not chaotic, ghosts are willing to be beggars and join your beggars' gang!"
Elder Lai fell silent.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he felt that Lin Beifan was right.
The more chaotic the world is, the more the beggars can develop!
The world is not chaotic, keep talking!
Confused in my heart, is my pursuit wrong?
As an elder of the beggar gang, shouldn't we expect the beggar gang to develop prosperously and get better and better?
But the better the beggar gang develops, the more chaotic the world will be!
"Elder Lai, do you know what I'm after?" Lin Beifan asked.
"Emperor Daxia, what is your pursuit?" Elder Lai asked.
"My pursuit is...to eliminate the gang of beggars!" Lin Beifan exclaimed loudly.
"You!" Elder Lai glared angrily.
"When there are no beggars in the world, the world will be peaceful! When there are no beggars in the world, the common people will have enough food and clothing! What's wrong with such a pursuit?" Lin Beifan said loudly.
"You are right, but it is impossible!" Elder Lai shook his head and smiled wryly.
Because there are too many poor people!
If there are 10 people in a country, at least 6 of them are poor people!
The source of their beggars is these poor people!
To eradicate beggars, these people must be lifted out of poverty!
But how easy is it to lift 60% of the world's people out of poverty?
Even gods can't do it!
"Who says it's impossible? The beggar gang is just a deformed product of an era, and it will perish sooner or later!"
Lin Beifan comes from later generations, not to mention the gang of beggars, there are very few beggars.
It was hard to find a few, but they were all liars.
Although there are still many people who are suffering, there are definitely not many people who are hungry.
"Let's not talk about it, just talk about my great summer!" Lin Beifan said proudly, "How many beggars can you find in my country? Can your gang of beggars develop in my country?"
Elder Lai fell silent again.
Everyone in Daxia lives and works in peace and contentment, everyone has enough food and clothing, and no one is willing to be a beggar!
Without beggars, beggar gangs cannot develop!
In Daxia, there is no soil for the development of beggar gangs!
Elder Lai couldn't help being confused!
Could it be that the other party's pursuit can really be realized?
At this time, Lin Beifan said sincerely: "So, Elder Lai, are you willing to come and help me, let us create a peaceful and prosperous world without beggars in the world? !"
"Impossible! This old man is an elder of the Beggar Gang, and he has been loyal to the Beggar Gang all his life! So there is no need to mention this matter again, and this old man will never agree!" Elder Lai said resolutely.
It doesn't matter if you are loyal to the beggars, but do your brothers also follow you to be loyal to the beggars? Do you want them to starve, suffer, suffer together with you?
"This..." Elder Lai hesitated.
Lin Beifan said again: "You can delay yourself, but you can't delay your brother! How can you be so selfish?"
Elder Lai finally couldn't bear it any longer: "Emperor Daxia, it's getting late, I still have a lot of things to do, so I'm leaving!"
Lin Beifan smiled slightly: "No!"
Seeing Elder Lai's leaving figure, Bai Zhu was puzzled: "Your Majesty, why do you want to win over Elder Lai from the Beggar Gang? He is very loyal to the Beggar Gang, there is no way he can succeed!"
Lin Beifan laughed and said, "I also know it's impossible, I just want to break a hole from him!"
"Huh?" Bai Zhu looked at Lin Beifan in confusion.
"The gang of beggars actually has a lot of talents!"
Lin Beifan said with a smile: "The disciples of their beggars are all selected from among the many beggars! No matter in talent, martial arts, or other aspects, they are superior to ordinary people!"
"If you can achieve three or four bags of disciples, you will be even better. Although they are not dragons and phoenixes, they can be regarded as outstanding! As long as you give them a chance, they will surely soar into the sky!"
"Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about this batch of disciples of the Beggar Clan in Daxia. Many of them have made their mark!"
"Although many of them have limited potential and cannot sit in the positions of high-ranking officials or enter the imperial court, but he can help me stabilize the grassroots and achieve unity! Moreover, they will be more loyal to the imperial court if they benefit in Great Xia!"
"I really need these loyal and grassroots talents. The more the better, only the beggars can provide them!"
"So, I invited him to come over for a discussion, hoping to make a breakthrough from him, and it seems to be quite effective now!".
