Father can be an enemy to the country

In front of Prince Teng's Pavilion, there was a meeting of the Beggar Clan.

After listening to Lao Liu's explanation, a beggar loudly asked: "Then since we want the world to be free of beggars, Prince, oh no... Chief Gang Leader, why do you still want to be a beggar?"

"That's a good question!" Lao Liu smiled and said, "Because you are the key to realizing a world without beggars, so I want to be your leader!"

"Us? The beggar is the key?" The beggars were confused, feeling that Gang Leader Hong still wanted to kill them.

"That's right, it's you!" Lao Liu pointed at the crowd and said.

“If we want to realize the ideal of a world without beggars, we must start from two aspects. On the one hand, we must lift the existing beggars out of poverty; on the other hand, we must prevent ordinary people from becoming beggars due to poverty.

"In order to realize the first point, this gang leader is determined to join the beggar gang, bring your value into full play, and help you live a good life!" After a pause, he continued:

"As for the second aspect, you can also play a great role, even an irreplaceable role!" After a pause, he said proudly:

"And our gang leader can combine these two aspects, so that you can help others get out of poverty while also allowing you to live a good life. Do you think it's okay?"

"Okay!" The Nanchang Beggar Clan brothers who were in charge of the atmosphere team quickly cheered.

"That's good," but there were also beggars who didn't agree with it. They kept saying, "But we are all mud that cannot be lifted up. How can we help others?"

"It's not bad enough to ask others to beg for food together." Someone said in a strange tone, causing the beggars to burst into laughter.

"Everyone, be quiet! Be serious! There's a meeting!" The gang leaders hurriedly yelled, but they were all completely conquered by the pie...oh no, the grand blueprint drawn by His Highness King Chu.

In fact, Lao Liu didn't even need to speak. From the first second they saw Shu Laibao wearing the official clothes, their hearts were already in the shape of His Royal Highness the King of Chu.

The gang leaders shouted for a while, and the venue finally became quiet.

"Because I also have to have a meal, I know everyone's psychology very well. Everyone is acting low all day long, living worse than animals, and being annoying. It is easy to feel that they are useless," Lao Liu also slowed down The tone of his voice changed, and the laughter on the faces of the beggars disappeared.

"But my favorite saying is that everything I am born with must be useful! Even a brick or a piece of straw has its own use, let alone us living people?!"

"It's just that you haven't met your own boss! I will guide you to understand your own abilities, and you will feel that you are worthless!" Lao Liu waved his arms powerfully, and said in a loud and firm voice:

"A thousand-mile horse is born in a farmhouse. If you don't meet a guy who understands horses, you will have to pull a cart for the rest of your life and be slaughtered for meat when you get old! This gang leader is the guy who saves you, do you understand?!"

"I understand, I dare to ask the leader, what is our value?" Everyone in the Beggar Clan lost their previous cynicism and asked questions one after another.

Unknowingly, they had been incited by Lao Liu...

Zhu Zhen asked Shu Laibao to speak out and tell the beggars what he said that day about the two major advantages of the beggar gang.

This is more convincing than if he said it alone.

~~

In Prince Teng's Pavilion, the fourth child actually felt excited after hearing this. Only then did he come back to his senses and said to Luo Guanzhong: "The mouth of my sixth brother is really inspiring. If this were left in troubled times, he could easily pull up a team."

"Yes, the student is writing a historical novel, and the protagonist is based on my Royal Highness." Luo Guanzhong nodded.

"Oh? Which dynasty?" Zhu Di was very interested.

"The Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty."

"Uncle Liu Huang?"

"No, Prime Minister Cao..."

"Okay." Zhu Di was speechless for a while, and then said again: "After you finish writing, you must show it to me."

"Okay." Luo Guanzhong nodded and waited to finish the book at his own update speed.

~~

On the high platform, Shu Laibao introduced to the group of beggars two professions that were particularly suitable for them - wind watchers and propagandists.

When the beggars heard this, they all became interested.

"Watching the wind is a good job. Let's do it while walking through the streets."

"That is, even if it is a remote and remote place, we will still go there. No one else would be as suitable as us."

Obviously they are very confident in their ability to serve as watchers. As for the propagandists, they never mentioned it.

"You are also the most suitable propagandists." Lao Liu said loudly: "Those wealthy families, scholars and gentry are well-informed, and there is no need to propagandize to them. The people who really need propaganda are the rural people and the market people who you have the most contact with every day. Xiaomin, there are thousands of people like you who come from poor backgrounds!”

"But we can only talk nonsense, how can we understand serious things?" The beggars said anxiously:

"It's just that there's not a single literate person in this courtyard, so I'm afraid I'll cause trouble for the chief gang leader!"

"No, you are wrong. The leader of this gang is using you because you are illiterate!" Lao Liu waved his hand and said, "Those scholars who always talk about 'what's wrong' can't do this job."

"Ah?" The beggars were confused.

The fourth child in Prince Teng's Pavilion also smiled bitterly. The sixth child made violent remarks one after another!

"The reason is very simple. We can obviously talk well, so why do they say 'Zhihuzhe' and 'Yanzaihuye'?" Zhu Zhen said loudly.

"Show yourself that you are knowledgeable." replied the beggars in the audience.

"You only know one thing but not the other. Their real purpose is to make the common people unable to understand!" Zhu Zhen sneered:

"If you don't understand, you have no right to speak, and you are not qualified to judge what is right or wrong. You can only listen to what they say and let them judge what is right and wrong for you!"

All the beggars in the audience and the fourth man upstairs were greatly shocked. Zhu Di suddenly grabbed Luo Guanzhong's neck, shook it hard and said: "Fuck me, fuck me, on the first day of my studies, I was thinking about this question - why can't these stupid gentlemen speak human language? It turns out that it is That’s the truth!”

"Shake it off, shake it off..." Luo Guanzhong held his glasses and felt like he was going to vomit.

~~

"But scholars are either gentry and wealthy people themselves, or they have sharpened their heads and want to become gentry and wealthy people! How can they speak for the common people?" Zhu Zhen then said loudly:

"The reason is very simple. For example, let's pay taxes. Everyone wants to pay less tax. But the amount of tax collected by the court is certain. If the rich pay less tax, it will eventually fall on the poor. I believe many people are bankrupt like this. Right?"

"No." The beggars nodded.

"Now, the court feels that this is unfair and wants to re-clear the land, so that people with more land will pay more taxes and people with less land will pay less taxes. But if this is really done, those large households with hundreds of hectares of fertile land will suddenly have to pay taxes. Pay a lot more taxes. But what about the poor who don’t have a few acres of land at home? The burden will naturally be much lighter." Zhu Zhen said in the simplest language:

"Do you think this is true?"

"Hmm." The beggars are actually smarter than ordinary farmers because they are freed from heavy physical labor, walk around the streets all day long, and come into contact with more people, so their minds are naturally brighter.

"At this time, those big families will mobilize scholars to try their best to confuse right and wrong and discredit the imperial court's new policy. They will deceive the people who are used to listening to them and go against the imperial court and oppose the new policy!" Zhu Zhen asked sadly: "You said that the imperial court still wants to Want to rely on scholars to promote it? Will it be useful?"

"It's useless..." The beggars finally understood.
