Chapter 177 Qianxunji's teachings, Qianrenchuan's darkening
In a quiet room, there were only Qianxunji and Qianrenchuan.
Qianxunji sat on the soft sofa, one leg resting on the other, and said, "Xiaochuan, let me ask you, based on the contact just now, what kind of person do you think Ning Fengzhi is?"
Qian Renchuan thought for a moment, "Master Ning, you often tell me that he is an old fox in the world of soul masters. Don't look at what he says, look at what he does. I have also heard of Master Ning's reputation as a kind man. I think Ning Fengzhi is a very good opponent, similar to Master Yu of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect. They should not be bad people."
The great philanthropist Ning Fengzhi is indeed as famous as the man who hates evil, Yu Yuanzhen.
Qianxunji chuckled, "Xiaochuan, do you know why the two empires strictly prohibited the auction of slaves, and why Tiandou Auction House dared to auction Catwoman?"
"The child doesn't know."
"Because of human desires, because of interests, and also because of human cognition."
"You just saw people's desires. That cat girl has a lot of fans. Her appearance is on the same level as those waiters at the auction house, but the cat ears and cat tail brought by the mutant martial spirit have touched the desires of those people, also known as sexual fetishes, so she was put up for auction."
"The second benefit is that pornographic transactions have always been extremely profitable. The auction price of that catwoman was as high as 200,000 gold soul coins. 200,000 gold soul coins is equivalent to the annual tax revenue of a small fourth-tier city. Do you think they can let go of such huge profits in order to maintain their luxurious and noble lives?"
Qian Renchuan listened to Qian Xunji's words carefully, as if the door to a new world had been opened.
"And the last point is people's perception. The entrance ticket to the auction is 10,000 gold soul coins. 10,000 gold soul coins is a sum that 99% of the people in the Tiandou Empire cannot earn in several generations. They have no idea what happens in the auction. They also don't know that the empire prohibits the slave trade, but in fact, such auctions can be found in any first- and second-tier cities."
"Xiaochuan, father will ask you again, if the auction house's affairs are exposed to the people of the Tiandou Empire, what do you think will happen?"
Qian Renchuan immediately replied: "There will be unrest!"
"Then what?"
"All these auction houses will disappear!"
“It’s narrow-minded.”
When Qian Renchuan saw his father criticizing him, he lowered his head and wondered what he had not considered carefully.
"If the people knew about the auction, there would be unrest. In order to quell the unrest, maintain their reputation, and maintain stability, the high-ranking officials of the Tiandou Empire would simply drag out some people as scapegoats and pretend to be good people. The auction would continue to operate in other places, because few people would not be tempted by such benefits."
"Xiaochuan, there is one thing you must keep in mind."
Qian Renchuan's expression turned serious, "Father, please speak."
“Kindness is simply charity from the strong to the weak, as long as it does not affect their own interests.”
"I know you won't understand this sentence right away, so I'll use Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen as examples."
Qianxunji's face was calm, his eyes seemed to see through everything, "Xiaochuan, what do you think kindness is? Buy some cat girls and take good care of them?"
"You know, the auction house is opened by the nobles, and Ning Fengzhi's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect does business with the nobles. A large part of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's funds come from the nobles." Qian Renchuan suddenly reacted, "Dad, so that's why the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect supports the Tiandou Empire, right?"
Qianxunji nodded, revealing a teachable expression, "Because this is related to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's profits, and buying and selling some cat girls, taking good care of them, and spreading the news, this is the origin of the great philanthropist Ning Fengzhi, and why the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has such a good reputation."
Hearing this, Qian Renchuan felt a chill all over his body. He had not thought so much at all. Ning Fengzhi was really an invincible old fox. On the surface, he did not interfere with the auction house, but in fact, he supported the Tiandou royal family which established the auction house. The Tiandou nobles profited from the Tiandou auction house, and he also made a profit by doing business with those arrogant nobles.
The sect can profit from it without being gossiped about, and then use the money to buy some cat ladies, and finally let these cat ladies spread the news and gain a good reputation.
This is equivalent to using the smallest cost to obtain the greatest benefit! Those cat women were simply sold out by Ning Fengzhi and are still counting money for him. Their value has been squeezed out completely!
Qianxun said quickly: "Let's talk about Yu Yuanzhen. Yu Yuanzhen is indeed a man who hates evil, but when faced with interests, he will eventually compromise."
"Do you know the ten core competitive strengths of martial spirits announced by Yu Xiaogang, the son of Yu Yuanzhen?"
Qian Renchuan nodded, "I know that those theories are full of loopholes, and there are not many valuable ones."
"Then do you know why this theory, which is full of loopholes and of little value, has such a big impact in the soul master world? It has almost caused all the families in the soul master world to laugh at it?"
"The child doesn't know."
“It’s because of that little bit of value.”
Qianxunji said calmly: "Xiaochuan, there are only so many resources in this world, who would be willing to show up and fight for them?"
"The ten core competitiveness of Wuhun is indeed full of loopholes, but as long as there is a little value, that little bit of recognition is a small hope for rising. The Bone Douluo of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is a rise from the poor, but he did not build his own family."
"If more genius Title Douluo like Bone Douluo emerge in the spirit master world and establish a big family, that big family will naturally have to grab a part of others' cake in order to develop. These are things that those big families and big forces will never allow! Even the one in ten thousand possibility must be eliminated."
"That's why the theory had such a big impact on the mainland. If Yu Xiaogang was not the son of Yu Yuanzhen, and Yu Yuanzhen was strong enough, I'm afraid Yu Xiaogang would have been chopped into pieces by someone and disappeared from this world."
"Yu Yuanzhen is also aware of this, but facing the pressure from the major families in the soul master world, the entire Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan is involved behind the scenes. For the sake of the interests of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, even if he hates evil, he has to compromise and remove Yu Xiaogang's name from the family tree."
"Finally, I became one of those people who mocked the Jade Little Anal Family."
At this point, Qianxunji sighed, "Xiaochuan, do you understand now? The kindness of the great philanthropist Ning Fengzhi is nothing more than the charity of the strong to the weak without harming their own interests. Kindness, justice, these words are just a tool to attract people's hearts and a good reputation. Once faced with naked interests, everything will fall apart."
"Of course, if there are really some good people in this world, like your grandfather, father will respect, honor, and admire such people, and even take the initiative to be courteous to them. But if that person becomes an enemy of our Spirit Hall in the future, father will eliminate him without hesitation."
Qian Renchuan kept replaying Qian Xunji's words in his mind, and a flash of blood red flashed in his eyes again.
