I was pulling trees in Daming, and Lao Zhu begged me to come out of retirement

Chapter 34 You Must Believe in Science

The two looked up at the sky and found that the "Sky Road" created by Tianyu had disappeared.

They were so shocked that they knelt down and kowtowed to greet him:

"Meet the God of Land."

During this period of time, Tianyu has always appeared in front of them as a teacher.

Today's wave of "immortal magic" really made the two of them believe in Tianyu's identity as an immortal.

At this moment, the two of them had only one thought in their minds:
"What the hell, ordinary people, what kind of ordinary people can create land out of thin air and jump down from a height of more than ten meters without getting hurt! "

Tianyu looked at the two people who turned into praying mantises again and felt helpless.

If he wasn't forced to do so, he wouldn't want to show his 'miracle'.
Who knew this group of unruly people would almost go berserk? Originally, he just planned to stand on the periphery and watch the show.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang and the other man could no longer control the situation, he had to stand up and promote a wave of feudal superstition.

At that time he had only one thought:
That is, the historical novels that I read in my previous life were all lies.

White porridge with pickled mustard tubers, yellow robes, instant noodles and canned food swept across Asia, Europe and America.

Obviously, he had given Zhu Chongba and the other two enough food.

Why are the people I meet all inherently good and have the highest moral standards in the world?

They lined up respectfully to receive their meals, and after eating, they expressed their gratitude and stood by their loved ones, turning into death warriors and charging forward.

When they got to him, they almost turned into thugs and robbed Zhu Yuanzhang.

Tianyu even secretly observed that the most restless people in the crowd were the tenants who were called out by Zhu Chongba to call for help.
Instead, it was this group of ungrateful people who had received the favor who were the first to take advantage of the chaos to rob.

If Tianyu had not stood up, Zhu Yuanzhang, the great founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, might have died before he could even accomplish his mission, and would have been buried under the feet of a group of starving refugees with tears in his eyes.

Tianyu recalled a famous quote by Emperor Taizong of Tang in Zizhi Tongjian:

Barbarians are beasts. They only care about small matters but not great principles. They fear power but do not cherish virtue.

Although the people at this time were not barbarians, they seemed no different from them due to extreme hunger.

What was it that Heshen used to say?

Are the victims still considered human beings? Huh? People who are about to die of starvation are no longer human beings, they are just animals. As long as they are alive, what is the point of eating bran? That is a good thing. Grass roots, tree bark, and soil are all edible.

Tianyu now had a new understanding of this sentence. Having lived in a prosperous era in his previous life, Tianyu had never seen real victims of a disaster.

Even the most recent famine occurred during my grandfather’s generation and it doesn’t feel real.

He felt that Zhu Yuanzhang, the newly-appointed landlord, had become a big fat sheep in the eyes of these refugees.

Without knowing how many workers he could recruit, many of the guys at the back of the queue were planning to start a commotion and divide up Zhu Yuanzhang's work.

It is obvious that compared with the tall and powerful courtyard and the vicious dog servant Liu Xiaode, they prefer to bully Zhu Yuanzhang, the weak one.

Tianyu also understood that if he simply relied on giving alms to win the hearts of the people, he would end up being attacked by these tenants.

It is human nature to be grateful for a little help and resentful for a little help, and to bully the weak and fear the strong. Only by combining kindness and severity can one better control subordinates.

At this time, Tianyu did not get angry and blame these refugees for their ingratitude.

Because he knew very well that the Chinese nation, as the only one of the four ancient civilizations whose cultural history has not been interrupted, relies on this belief of "surviving at all costs."

It is precisely because of this belief that the Chinese nation has been able to remain active on the world stage from beginning to end without interruption.

The emergence of this situation today can only be said to be that the Yuan government has pushed the people to a limit.

When even surviving like a dog becomes a luxury, the belief in living will emerge from the bottom of the heart, thus breaking the moral bottom line set by the rulers for the people since ancient times.

Tianyu will not be depressed by this, but will be happy instead.

Because he knew that this situation was most beneficial to himself and Zhu Yuanzhang.

When a dog is desperate, it will jump over the wall; when a rabbit is desperate, it will bite people.

Only when the people are pushed to this limit will they ignore the imperial power and fear of death and embark on a path of no return.

Otherwise, as Zhu Yuanzhang said, as long as he had food, he would not have taken the path of rebellion.

Now, these people have completely abandoned the Confucian brainwashing rhetoric of ruler-ruler, subject-subject, father-father, and son-son.

As long as the situation is stabilized and they are given a full meal, they will follow Zhu Yuanzhang wholeheartedly until the end. …

At this time, Tianyu looked at Zhu Chongba and the other man who were unwilling to get up and sighed and said:
"You should believe in science, not feudal superstitions. Gods and immortals don't exist. Everything has its own laws of operation. I only have some simple knowledge of quantum mechanics."

Well...when you are in doubt, there is nothing wrong with quantum mechanics.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chongba and Zhu Chongliu raised their heads hastily, and then nodded like praying insects, agreeing:

"Oh, yes, yes! God of Land is right, we believe in science!"

Tianyu: “…”

Obviously, the other party doesn't believe it...

Tianyu waved his hand.
"Okay, get up and go to the house to discuss the next task."

Watching Tianyu walk into the house, Zhu Chongba and his companion quickly got up and walked into the house.

When we got inside the house,
Tianyu took out a cup of hot tea from his gaming backpack and took a sip. Ever since he quit smoking, he didn't like to keep his mouth idle.

Looking at the two people standing stiffly below, Tianyu pointed to a chair nearby and said:

"Sit down. I don't like looking up when talking to people."

With two thuds, Zhu Yuanzhang and the other man knelt down again.

Tianyu: “…”

They were really scared. Tianyu had just performed a miracle, and they almost messed things up. Now everything Tianyu said sounded like sarcasm to them.

Only Tianyu said angrily with a helpless look on his face:
"Just sit down if I told you to. Who told you to kneel?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and the other man then ran to the seat next to them and sat down, with their buttocks just touching the edge of the stool and their whole bodies almost hanging in the air.

Tianyu rolled his eyes and was too lazy to continue correcting their sitting posture.

With today's thinking, this fear of gods cannot be changed in a short time.

Especially the poor class, or the poorer they are, the more they believe in these ghosts and gods. I can just think of it as the employees' fear of me as the chairman.

Tianyu never thought that he was smarter than Zhu Yuanzhang and other people who were destined to be kings.

At the very least, if Tianyu were put in Zhu Yuanzhang's position, he would never be able to accomplish the same thing even if he knew the history.

Did he break into Sun Deya's mansion alone to save his adoptive father? Did he lead 24 men to fight on the battlefield as a pioneer? Or did he defeat Chen Youliang with a smaller force?

Are you kidding? Details determine success or failure. It’s no use knowing only the outcome. In a math test, if you only have the answer but no process, you will still get no points.

What I have more than them is only knowledge, 5000 years of cultural heritage and modern thinking summarized by our ancestors.

Whether it is the emotional intelligence or IQ of dealing with people,

This group of ancient people who can leave their names in history can definitely crush Tianyu himself. If they are given a chance to be reborn in the modern era, they can leave Tianyu far behind.

Therefore, Tianyu did not intend to completely package himself as a charlatan and have the final say.
He needs these destined children to use their natural brains to help him improve his plans and develop technology.

Three incompetent generals are better than Zhuge Liang.

If Tianyu wanted to develop Zhu Chongba into one of the twenty Celestial Dragons of the World Government, then he himself would be more comfortable as an immortal Imdo.

However, what he needed to do most at this moment was to cheer up Zhu Yuanzhang, who died before he could accomplish his mission. After all, he couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of this son of destiny. What if he ran away and became a local landlord again?

"You did a good job this time, Chongba."

Zhu Chongba trembled all over when he heard this, and stretched his body forward skillfully, ready to kneel.
Tianyu immediately stopped him with a serious look.

Damn it, where is your domineering attitude as the founding emperor? You led the 24 generals of Huaixi to kill people without blinking an eye from Chen Youliang to Zhang Shicheng.
He kowtows at every turn, almost as bad as the eunuchs in the palace.

Seeing this, Zhu Chongba smiled awkwardly and shook his head:

"Zhongba doesn't dare. Chongba has failed the expectations of the land god."

Tianyu rolled his eyes and was too lazy to say anything else. He reached out and took the population register from Zhu Chongliu's hand, carefully flipped through two pages and prepared to say something.

When Tianyu saw the content, he was suddenly stunned:
"Um……"

Damn, why are all the pinyins so crooked? Damn!
