Star of Civilization

The skin on Su Zhe's forehead cracked, a gap appeared faintly, and a ruby-like pupil appeared.

He said solemnly, "Perhaps you should really see the mother whose son was swallowed by monsters, and the wanderer whose homeland was destroyed by the unknown darkness, and tell them that they should rejoice in their misfortune, because it saves fallen human beings. , and see how they answer you."

Jielun trembled after hearing this, and suddenly felt that Su Zhe was a little scary.

"Well said, Mr. Scholar." Dad sat firmly in the big armchair, patted his belly and interjected, "Boy Jay, you'd better keep your mouth shut."

"I'm sorry, that's not what I meant." Jaylen clenched his hands nervously, glanced at his father in astonishment, and when he was looking down, he found Thurstella winking at him quietly.

"Master Jielun has no other intentions. He just wants to tell the two adults the views of many people in the city. In fact, he has a lot of concerns about this, right?"

Thurstella spoke at this moment, facing her father with her back to Su Zhe, she bent down slightly, her chest swayed, her round thighs almost touched her father's bulging belly.

The slender girl's full smile made Dad feel a little dazed.

"Yes, it's just that I've been under a lot of pressure recently and have more concerns. As you know, there are all kinds of rumors in the society, I want to share their views for the lord, and there are some things in front of me, I just want to help out force..."

While talking, Jay took the donkey down the **** and realized that he had gone too far, and he really shouldn't offend these real "powerful people".

"Okay, okay...I know."

Dad leaned back and watched Jaylen smooth things out, "But those arguments are too extreme, and such an argument will never end. Now you understand? It's not the past, nor is it here. Mine City, you Turners need to learn more. But usually, the most complex problems always have the simplest solutions."

"Uh...the solution?"

Jay was slightly startled, not knowing what Dad was going to say.

The old man smiled, his face drooped down, and he said without a smile, "Listen, you can take care of some things that you should take care of, it's better not to interfere with the things you shouldn't take care of, understand? Don't force me to use the easiest way. That kind of plan, little guy."

Dad's eyes kept rolling, as if he meant something.

Jay is not a fool, he wakes up immediately after being silent for half a second.

"Yes, yes, Master Chief is so right, I'm not used to hiding my thoughts... Oh, you see, it's all my fault." After speaking, he bowed deeply to Su Zhe and said, " I'm really sorry, forgive my sins. You are a lot of adults, don't take it to heart."

In fact, Su Zhe didn't care too much about this kind of thing, this time he was just here to relax.

Soon he will return to the laboratory. After all, there are at least a dozen major projects waiting for him to preside over, and a bunch of scholars are waiting for him to point the way. Jay's pretence made him feel awkward.

"I'm not a grown-up, but this boss is real."

"Hey, I don't dare to be the chief manager, and I have to add the word 'generation' in front of it."

After he finished speaking, the old man took out a large bottle from the side, pulled out the lid, and took out three crystal clear goblets from under the table, poured the red liquid, and handed one cup to Jay Lun and Su Zhe. .

"This is--"

Jaylen and Su Zhe both reached out to take it, and looked at Dad with slightly strange eyes.

"It's a good wine."

He laughed and said, "This **** emperor can't fight, but he really enjoys it. He didn't live for so many years in vain. There is a large wine cellar under the castle, and I don't know how to store tens of thousands of barrels of fine wine. It seems that he is unlucky. Take it and leave it all to us."

"Oh--"

Dad saw the two of them with amazement in their eyes, but neither of them drank. He immediately picked up the wine glass and clinked glasses with the two of them. The fat on his face kept shaking, "Don't worry, I have tried it, this wine is very good!".

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and drank the whole glass of wine.

After drinking, he smacked his mouth, licked his upper lip, glanced at Jaylen and continued, "As long as you keep your mouth shut, at most people will treat you as a harmless lunatic. If you really want to do something , why don't you talk to our chief scholar. Try it, this wine is really a good thing, don't waste it."

Seeing this, Jay immediately understood, clinking glasses with Su Zhe, "Yes, I almost forgot about this, come on, cheers!"

Su Zhe was also welcome, and the two took a sip each. On top of alcohol, they are all refreshed.

I have to say, Dad is a knowledgeable guy after all, and maybe he has a bit of social **** in his personality.

This is reflected in the vast difference between the way he and Joyna manage the Floating City.

He knows that no matter how society and status change, he needs to win over some people, because these people can maintain the stability of the social structure and create greater value. He also knows how to get along with everyone, so he often holds receptions in the castle~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to meet people from all walks of life.

After all, times have changed. In the past, he was a brutal gang leader. He lived a life of drunken life and death, licking blood on the tip of a knife, and one day counted as one day.

Life seems different now, but some things never change. Dad had killed a lot of people before in the West's reign, and he knew that look.

Recently, he has seen something the same as before in everyone's eyes.

That is -- fear.

——The fear in the heart, the fear spread among people, seems to have a deepening trend.

Fear is an inexplicably morbid emotion that creeps into everyone's soul if one is not careful.

Human ancestors often had this primitive emotion millions of years ago: the urge to flee in the face of invisible darkness, of known and unknown threats, and of knowing that they cannot resist .

A heart of fear that only emerges when faced with an incomparably powerful presence that disappears when you are ravaged and weak.

From the perspective of biological self-protection, this is instinct and is well understood.

He gradually came to understand that now that monsters are in power, there is no guarantee that day and night, people who have survived death threats again and again, their first priority is their own safety.

And the security foundation of the entire floating city society is public security. In addition to those "military factions" who are clamoring to fight back all day, the rest have to rely on those who really have the means and influence to maintain the stability of the entire social system, such as those old families.

Although Dad's style looks exaggerated and unrealistic on the surface, he has his own set of logic. He also knows better than anyone else, because only in this relaxed environment can he hear some truth.

"Hiccup—just right, both of you are here, so let's talk about it directly."
