The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1718 Ten percent

After learning that the Four Seas Dragon Palace had jointly created a temporary sea eye, Dong Wencong hurried into Fang Yun's study.

"Fang Xusheng, something bad has happened!" Dong Wencong shouted before entering the door, and then pushed the door violently with a bang.

"Fortunately I'm not behind the door." Fang Yun raised his head from behind a large amount of paperwork and looked at Dong Wencong quietly.

Dong Wencong looked embarrassed, stretched out his hand to straighten his robe, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen the Governor."

"It's okay, let's continue talking." Fang Yun said.

Dong Wencong walked to Fang Yun's table with a serious face and said: "The Four Seas Dragon Palace suddenly joined forces to create a temporary sea eye. There is definitely something fishy in this. The Dragon Clan was once the master of all realms and mastered the method of making sea eyes. In the Holy Yuan Continent, It is not difficult to create a sea eye that does not cross borders, but even so, it must be eliminated It consumes a lot of resources. If those resources are converted into cultural treasures, they are probably worth a semi-sacred cultural treasure. Even if the dragon clan is rich, a semi-sacred cultural treasure is still a lot of wealth for them. There are only a few dragon kings in the dragon clan. There are dragon semi-sacred treasures, but most great dragon kings don’t have them.”

Fang Yun nodded and said: "After I saw someone making this whimsical suggestion on the discussion list, I tried to contact Ao Qingyue, but I didn't expect that the East China Sea Dragon Palace agreed to help. However, the other three sea dragon palaces took the initiative to join in, otherwise the East China Sea Dragon Palace would With the power, the temporary sea eye created is limited.”

"Other Three Seas Dragon Palaces take the initiative to join? There must be a big problem here! Could it be that the Three Seas Dragon Palaces are also planning to have a hand in the Mid-Autumn Festival? Why should they? With the power of the Holy Temple in Baling City, they can't do anything to you." Dong Wencong His brows were furrowed.

Fang Yun smiled slightly and said: "When Ao Qingyue told me about this, he advised me not to agree to help the other three sea dragon palaces. At worst, there would be fewer sea eyes. But I readily agreed, since they were willing to give up their power and divine objects. Create a sea eye, let scholars from all over the human race come to Baling City, promote Baling City’s trade, and make our Xiangzhou more prosperous. Why should I refuse?”

"But... they deliberately let so many scholars arrive at Yueyang Tower. It is very likely that they have some means to make you lose to Zhang Longxiang, and then make you embarrassed in front of the scholars all over the world. The more people see you making a fool of yourself, the happier the West Sea Dragon Palace will be. It's better... let's simply reduce the size of the cultural association, so that if it fails, too many people will not see it, and there will be a comeback," Dong Wencong advised.

Fang Yun nodded and said: "Wen Cong, your opinion is very pertinent, and your eyesight is also sharp. You can see that the Three Seas Dragon Palace has evil intentions. However, this Yueyang Tower is the place where my Fang Yun is. In front of me, there is a dragon, which must be coiled; It’s a tiger, he must lie down!”

Dong Wencong looked at Fang Yun and felt strong confidence in his tone, expression and eyes.

"How sure are you that you can beat Zhang Longxiang?"

Fang Yun found this question very interesting and couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "100%."

"Ah?" Dong Wencong looked at Fang Yun in disbelief. He knew Fang Yun very well. They had a close friendship when they were in Yuhai City, and they were both teachers and friends. Even when Fang Yun was the most arrogant, even when he wanted to show his strength, Such an attitude is also impossible.

"The other party is Zhang Mingzhou. Although he is worse than you, Fang Zhenguo, but since he is responsible for choosing the topic, if the essay is compared with frontier fortress or military poetry, you may not even have a 50% chance of winning. I believe you very much, but, Zhang Longxiang's record is unrivaled in Liangjieshan. Even if you go to Liangjieshan now, you may not be able to achieve such brilliant results. Therefore, please answer carefully. I ask again, how sure are you of winning? Pass Zhang Longxiang?”

Dong Wencong's eyes were like fire, as if he was going to burn two holes in Fang Yun's eyes.

"Ten percent." Fang Yun's answer was the same as before.

A flash of disappointment flashed in Dong Wencong's eyes, and he rationally told himself that Fang Yun was most likely going too smoothly recently, and he was arrogant and arrogant. Although it was usually difficult to detect, it was exposed at critical moments. However, Dong Wencong's feelings and experience told him that since Fang Yun had said it was ten percent twice, he could no longer persuade him no matter what, and he had to firmly support him.

Back then, the two were indeed both teachers and friends, but now, with Fang Yun's status at the top, the gap between the two is getting wider and wider.

Dong Wencong concealed the disappointment in his eyes, his eyes became firm, and he nodded lightly and said: "Don't worry, Lord Governor, I will do my best to arrange this Yueyang Tower Cultural Conference, and ensure that there are no mistakes, so that you can go in the best condition." Fight against Zhang Longxiang!"

Unexpectedly, Fang Yun smiled and said: "Wen Cong, I understand your mood very well. Your worries are not unreasonable, because I am worried too."

"Shouldn't Zhang Longxiang be the most worrying person at this literary conference? Do you mean the mysterious 'big shot'?" Dong Wencong asked.

Fang Yun nodded lightly and said: "When I learned about that 'big shot', I didn't care. It was just the nonsense of a few Xiangzhou officials, and it didn't matter. However, when Qingjun wanted to come to Yueyang Tower in person, , I had some doubts in my heart, until Sanhai Dragon Palace took the initiative to help me build a temporary sea eye, my vigilance had been raised to the extreme, but I just didn't show it. "

Dong Wencong looked ashamed. Only then did he truly realize that there was not only a gap between his status and luck, but also a huge gap in other aspects. As a virtual saint and a governor, even if I am only 10% sure, in many cases, I have to say 100%! No matter how powerful the enemy is, Fang Yun must remain calm and not be distracted.

If Fang Yun showed the slightest hint of anxiety, the whole sky in Xiangzhou would feel like it was falling down.

"Then why did you agree to build a temporary sea eye..." Dong Wencong was even more puzzled.

"There is a big difference between making a fool of yourself in front of one person and ten people, but there is not much difference between making a fool of yourself in front of 100,000 people and 1 million people. However, for Xiangzhou and Jiangzhou, there will be a big difference between 100,000 people visiting and 1 million people visiting. In addition, no matter how many people come, it will not affect that big man. In this case, I will remain unchanged in the face of all changes and see which big man is coming here."

"Will it be a half-saint?"

"Losing to a half-saint is not called making a fool of yourself." Fang Yun smiled indifferently.

"You are really free and easy." Dong Wencong shook his head helplessly.

"You can also say that you are pretending to be calm." Fang Yun smiled.

Dong Wencong was relieved when he heard Fang Yun say this. Fang Yun was not arrogant, but he had to maintain the most perfect mentality. Now Fang Yun said "pretending to be calm", which just shows that Fang Yun has been able to control himself.

At this moment, a guard ran to the door and said, "Your Excellency the Governor, a man who claims to be Zeng Yuan wants to see you."

"Let him in." Fang Yun said.

Dong Wencong's thoughts raced when he heard this. This Zeng Yuan was not only a big shot in the Zeng family, but also an important figure in the gambling incident that year.
