The Heavens Begin with Detective Di Renjie

Chapter 309 Who's Who?
The four bandits were captured in one go, and the crisis that had been plaguing the Pegasus Ranch was finally completely resolved.

As for how Shang Xiuxun planned to deal with the four villains, Shen Youzhi didn't ask, nor did he care.

At this moment, he was quietly looking at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling in front of him, waiting for their reply.

"Mister wants us to help the Li family?" Xu Ziling looked surprised, and his tone was even more strange.

It's just because he knows the character of his good brother Kou Zhong very well, and he never wants to be inferior to others, let alone Li Clan.

That place represented a failure in his relationship, and it was the last place he wanted to recall, let alone join.

If Kou Zhong joined the Li Clan and became Li Tang's courtier, his status would be lower than that of Li Xiuning, and he would see her and Chai Shao pair up all the time in the future. This would be worse than any torture in the world. It's hard to bear!
The facts were indeed as Xu Ziling thought, when he heard someone persuade him to join the Li Clan, Kou Zhong's expression suddenly became gloomy.

If he hadn't known Shen Youzhi's identity, and had seen such a miraculous method just now, I'm afraid he would have walked away on the spot.

Seeing this situation, Xu Ziling immediately put aside the topic and asked:
"Why do you have such an idea, sir?"

"The troubled times are uncertain, and the common people are in trouble." Shen Youzhi said slowly: "Both young friends are rare talents, so Shen wants to ask the two of you to help us to end the troubled times as soon as possible, and return the people of the world to a peaceful and prosperous world. "

These words were not selfish, they were all out of righteousness and considered for the interests of ordinary people, which immediately aroused Xu Ziling's sympathy.

He also came from a poor background, and he was a gangster since he was a child. He barely survived by relying on cheating and abduction and the help of kind people.

If it wasn't for a coincidence that they obtained the formula of longevity, they would have died under the random knives of the officers and grass bandits just like many ordinary people in Yangzhou city.

This kind of experience made Xu Ziling personally aware of the sufferings of the people at the bottom, and he was willing to create a prosperous world for them.

But thinking of the grievances between his good brother and the Li family, he couldn't agree to Shen Youzhi for a while.

On the other side, Kou Zhong, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, and asked in a low tone:
"Sir, if you want to create a prosperous world for the people, why do you have to choose the Li family?"

"Could it be that they were born to be emperors just because they are from aristocratic families and noble births?"

"Could it be that other than Li Clan, others can't fight for the world?"

Although the tone of his speech was a little stuffy, but these were not angry words, but his heartfelt words, his truest thoughts.

He couldn't figure out why everyone would choose the Li family, why the world was doomed to be theirs, and why he couldn't fight for it!
Does birth really determine everything?

Is it true that Li Shimin must be stronger than Kou Zhong when he becomes the emperor?
Which of these aristocratic families would put ordinary people in their eyes?
Who can guarantee that the Li family will not become the next Yang family?
All these questions are what Kou Zhong wants to ask, and they are also things that he has never been able to understand.

"Others." Shen Youzhi looked at Kou Zhong quietly, and asked very bluntly, "Is it you?"

Kou Zhong didn't expect him to be so straight to the point. Thinking of his current situation, he unconsciously pursed his lips, but still pouted and said:

"It may not be me, Du Fuwei, Wang Shichong, Song Que... Don't these people have the possibility of unifying the world?"

"Or, in the eyes of Mr. Li, only the Li family is worthy of the throne of the emperor?"

"How can you guarantee that they won't become the next Yang family?"

Shen Youzhi patiently listened to his words, and after pondering for a while, asked again:
"Who is the world?"

"Kou Zhong, who do you think should own this world?"

Suddenly being asked such a question, Kou Zhong felt a little dazed all of a sudden, and could only answer from the bottom of his heart:

"The only one in the world can get it, not judge by blood!"

"Capable. So, you think you are more capable than Li Shimin?" Shen Youzhi asked back.

"Even if it's worse now, it might not be worse in the future!" Kou Zhong said with a passionate face and a proud tone.

He never felt that he was worse than anyone else, even if he was a little worse now, as long as he gave himself time, he would definitely be able to catch up!
Hearing Kou Zhong's words, Shen Youzhi smiled lightly, and said softly:

"If there is a person now, he has not eaten for several days, and he is dying of hunger."

"But he only has one tael of silver in his hand."

"One option is to go to a small restaurant on the side of the road to have a full meal."

"Another option is to take this tael of silver and go to the gambling house to see if you can win a hundred and eighty taels by chance, and you will have nothing to worry about from now on."

"But the price of failure is starving to death without even a single meal."

"If you were you, which path would you choose?"

After finishing speaking, Shen Youzhi looked at Kou Zhong quietly, waiting for his answer.

Kou Zhong is not a fool, of course he knows the deep meaning of the other party's story.

After a long silence, he could only sigh helplessly:
"The man who is about to starve to death is referring to the world today."

After decades of turmoil, both the world and the people are struggling with life and death. This metaphor is indeed appropriate.

"As for the full meal that can save lives, it's Li Shimin."

"And the casino refers to me, my little brother."

"Investing in Li Shimin, the benefits are visible, and it can ensure that the current crisis and predicament can be resolved."

"But if you invest in my little brother, the income can be predicted, and it is very likely that the 'world' will be destroyed."

"Mister doesn't want to gamble, so he won't choose me, little brother."

Speaking of this, Kou Zhong couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Although he had already extinguished his ambition to fight for world hegemony, he still didn't want to admit defeat, didn't want to admit that he was inferior to others.

Now that Shen Youzhi exposed his biggest shortcoming, he naturally felt uncomfortable.

But no matter how uncomfortable he was, he couldn't say anything to refute.

Because the facts are like this, compared to Li Shimin, who has received elite education since he was a child, he really knows nothing about governing the country, and he is not good at governing the world at all.

However, regarding Kou Zhong's understanding, Shen Youzhi still shook his head, and said slowly:
"wrong!"

"It's not that I don't want to gamble, but that people in the world can't afford to gamble."

"It doesn't make any difference to me who is the emperor, but to the unknown common people, it is related to all their wealth and lives."

"The emperor's birth and lineage are of no value to the people. What they need is someone who can lead them to prosperity."

"You often talk about the hegemony, thinking of it as a game, thinking that you can feel the thrill of the blood, and think that you can play it vividly."

"But have you ever thought that with your own thoughts, you have unintentionally used the people of the world as a tool for your own game."

"How is this different from Yang Guang ignoring the sufferings of the people and forcing the people's husbands to be used for his own pleasure?"

Shen Youzhi finally looked serious, looked at Kou Zhong very seriously, and said in a cold voice:
"Since you learned the "Secret of Longevity", although you still call yourself a 'little bastard' and an 'ordinary person', you use this to flaunt your advantages as an emperor, thinking that you will be more sympathetic to the people than the powerful and nobles."

"But deep down in your heart, you always think that you are different, and even inadvertently, you put yourself above all the people in the world, and regard them as a tool to play with you."

Having said that, Shen Youzhi paused, and then said:

"Just now Shen asked you, who owns the world."

"You answer with your heart, saying that it is 'those who can get it'."

"But what I want to tell you is that the world is not owned by anyone, nor by any family, but by the people of the world."

"Water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn it."

"It is absolutely impossible for one person to overwhelm all the people in the world!"

"Whether the Li family will become the Yang family is still unknown, but if you have the heart, you will definitely become the next Yang Guang!"
