Heavens: I can hypnotize myself

Chapter 65 What is missing is strength!
"Yi'er, you have been on the mountain for a year and a half, how do you feel during this time?"

In the study room, only Xu Chun and Xu Yi, father and son, were left.

Although he really wanted Xu Yi to give up the idea of ​​martial arts, Xu Chun did not act in a hurry, took a sip of tea slowly, and then spoke lightly.

Having been the head of the family for so many years, managing so many businesses of the Xu family, and having dealt with countless people, Xu Chun understands very well that in order to achieve his goals in a conversation, he must not rely on speaking loudly. It takes skill!

Xu Chun, who has mastered all kinds of conversation skills, is using a step-by-step technique at this time. Through step-by-step inquiries, without rushing, Xu Yi gradually makes Xu Yi realize the difficulty of practicing martial arts, and then makes him give up learning. Wu's thoughts.

For today, Xu Chun has been preparing for half a year. Based on what he knows about his son's personality, he has deliberated hundreds of times and included every reaction. He feels that he must be foolproof.

"Father, what do you think our Xu family lacks the most?"

"Ok?"

Xu Chun was taken aback.

This is not in his default answer!

Xu Yi smiled in his heart. He had already seen Xu Chun's thoughts. Although he didn't know so many conversation skills, he knew how to make the other party not understand - just interrupt the other party's rhythm.

The most important thing in a conversation is the rhythm. Those who control the rhythm will have a great advantage.

Interrupt the other person's rhythm, and then drag the conversation into your own rhythm, and then everything will be in your hands.

Of course, this kind of thing is easy to say, but it is not so easy to do it. Interrupting the rhythm of the other party does not mean that you can say anything casually. The topic you raise must be of great interest to the other party!
Otherwise, people don't pay much attention to you, so why do you drag the conversation into your own rhythm?

And what Xu Yi is talking about now is obviously a topic that Xu Chun is very interested in - what exactly is the Xu family lacking at present?
As soon as Xu Chun heard this sentence, he couldn't help thinking.

Similar to Yue Buqun, what he cares most about is his family, how to make his family better has always been what he wants to do most!
And from a certain point of view, the situations he and Yue Buqun encountered are actually very similar—they both once existed at their peaks.

The Xu family in its heyday was not only the largest family in Huayin County, but its influence even spread to the whole of Shaanxi and even several surrounding provinces.

The Huashan faction was indeed strong decades ago, and the Xu family, which was backed by the Huashan faction, naturally rose accordingly.

It's a pity that with the decline of the Huashan faction's sword qi battle, the Xu family has also declined. Although it is not as miserable as the Huashan faction, it is basically shrunk in Huayin County now, and it is not even in Huayin County. The first family was chased by other families.

Xu Chun was born and raised in that peak period, and experienced how beautiful and glorious the Xu family was in its heyday.

As the only remaining head of the Xu family, how could he not want the Xu family to return to that heyday?
So Xu Yi's topic immediately plunged him into deep thought.

But before Xu Chun could give an answer, Xu Yi asked and answered by himself, and gave his own answer.

"It's power! What we lack now is power!"

"strength?"

Xu Chun frowned.

"Yes."

Xu Yi nodded.

"Father, you haven't forgotten what happened to our Xu family more than ten years ago, right? If it wasn't for you and my mother at that time... maybe our Xu family might not even exist now."

He didn't go into details, and his son couldn't go into details about this kind of thing, but the meaning has been expressed clearly.

With the decline of the Huashan School's sword qi battle, the Xu family was actually hit hard. After all, the bigger the body, the stronger the enemy it faces!
At that time, the Huashan sect, who was the backer of the Xu family, couldn't even take care of themselves, so naturally they couldn't help the Xu family.

At that critical moment, if Xu Chun hadn't resolutely abandoned his interests outside of Huayin County and married Xu Yi's mother Xu Liu, perhaps there would really be no Xu family now.

"go on."

Xu Chun's expression was calm. Although it was a little embarrassing to be told such a thing in person by his son, he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did back then, so he stabilized quickly.

Just like what Xu Yi said, if he hadn't done that at that time, the Xu family might not have existed by now!

"Father, I can somewhat guess what you are thinking. If my prediction is correct... You must want me to take the scientific examination?" Xu Yi seemed suspicious, but said firmly.

"Ok?"

Xu Chun looked at Xu Yi in surprise.

It seems that he didn't expect him to guess it so accurately!

"It's not hard to guess."

Xu Yi shook his head slightly.

"In this world, there are only two kinds of forces that can play a decisive role, one is the warrior, and the other is the country. If you don't want me to take the path of the warrior, then the only thing left is the imperial examination that can use the power of the state."

Although at this time, the capital power of this country has already begun to germinate, and even a strong capital prototype has appeared in the southeast coastal area. If it is a normal history, there is no way out just to do business.

But in this magically reformed martial arts world, the reason why these big capitalist families who seem to only do business can rise is also because they are inextricably linked with the major martial arts forces.

Either they are a family of warriors themselves, or they rely on powerful Jianghu forces behind them, or they have various connections with the imperial court.

All in all, in this world where warriors can play a big role, it is difficult to get up just by doing business and accumulating wealth.

Or to put it another way, you can't keep your wealth at all!
In this world, even the so-called imperial court is, in a sense, a warrior power, just the largest warrior power.

From this point of view, Xu Chun's idea of ​​borrowing the power of the imperial court can also be said to be a disguised form of changing his backer from the Huashan faction, which has declined, to the "warrior" force of the Ming Dynasty.

Change the court!

This is Xu Chun's idea.

If it was changed to other forces like Shaolin Wudang, then this approach must be courting death, but due to the particularity of the Ming Dynasty, the problem does not appear to be that big.

I have to say that there is nothing wrong with Xu Chun's idea, it can even be said to be very good!
The Huashan faction is indeed no longer suitable to be the backer of their Xu family.

However, it is not a good choice to rely on the Huashan faction at this time, whether it is analyzed from the present or from the future analysis of the Huashan faction in the original book.

If Xu Yi hadn't activated the golden finger, he would also have given careful consideration to Xu Chun's thoughts and left a way out for himself and even the Xu family.
