Chapter 743 The water of the times, the ship of the territory!(2/2)
After Chen Shen finished speaking, there was a gasp of air in the room.
Before coming, they subconsciously thought that Chen Shen would not personally end the case and would only listen to the debate between them to come up with the result.
But no one expected that after Su Youzong just said a few words, the scene had completely become a stage for the two of them, and everyone else had become a foil.
Even if you are in a lower rank, you will not be able to understand what the two of them are talking about for the first time.
The last time we saw this situation was when Chen Shen and Feng Tianmin were in the conference room.
It was just that at that time, one of them was the mayor of Hope City and the other was the commander of the northern war zone. Their status was extremely noble, which could not be compared with now.
"Mayor Chen, I am just an ordinary person, how can I decide the direction of the ship?"
"But I just want to hear what you will choose."
"What if I say I don't know how to choose?"
"I don't believe it. Besides, even if you don't choose, someone will force you to choose. The water is flowing and the boat is moving. As long as you don't go ashore, you can't stop."
In a few words, Chen Shen's tone became higher and higher, and the skin behind the mask tightened.
And now, he himself has realized that he has completely lost his composure and has no choice but to look down on all sentient beings from a high position.
But so what.
He didn't care at all, he only cared that no one had dared to talk to him head-on like this for so long.
He even dared to point fingers at him here in a lecturing tone.
He eagerly wanted to know what choice the man in front of him would make next.
It means choosing the same path as yourself and becoming a comrade who will support you in the future.
Or do you choose to be completely opposite to yourself and become an "enemy" just now?
"Mayor Chen, didn't you say it yourself, the water is flowing and the boat is moving?"
"Why do you always think that the person driving the boat controls the direction of navigation? Isn't it the current that determines the direction of the boat?"
"If you go with the current, you will get twice the result with half the effort. If you go against the current, you will encounter difficulties and obstacles."
"The captain is the soul of the ship. Every change of course is to avoid danger during navigation."
"But this change is by no means a derivative of the will of the water flow, and it is definitely not an expansion of the will of the ship. If you try to control the direction of the water flow, it will only make the ship capsize faster!"
On the same night, under the same starry sky, everyone's ideas have different expressions.
People who are greedy for glory and wealth will never understand why those who are willing to throw their lives and blood are so brave.
The ascetic monks who move forward silently never figure out where the so-called other shore is and how to get there.
Facing Chen Shen, Sumo never wanted to impose his will and turn him into his subsidiary personality.
But the facts show that not everyone will be as determined and wise as him, and not everyone who falls into the vortex has a chance to climb out.
After listening to the explanation, Chen Shen paused and seemed not satisfied with the answer.
But unexpectedly, he did not choose to continue asking. Instead, he changed the subject with a hint of trembling: "I heard Jiang Biao say in the afternoon that your Zizailiangfang seems to be applying for a trading license. I just have enough food tonight.
I’m not short of money, and I’ll work overtime in the office. If you have time, you can come to the mayor’s office to see me.”
"Remember to come early, maybe I will get off work at ten o'clock?"
He raised his watch and glanced at the time.
After Chen Shen finished speaking, he immediately stood up and walked to the back of the stage without stopping at all.
Seeing his sudden departure, the dozen or so people present, including Chen Kai, were a little stunned.
They searched hard in their memories, trying to find the last time Chen Shen lost his temper like this.
But their memory told them that it had been a long time.
It has been so long that it is difficult for anyone to remember a specific time, specific place, or even specific words.
"How dare he?"
Until Chen Shen disappeared.
Looking at Somo's young face, Chen Kai touched his unshaven chin, still thinking about Somo's last words.
Since the establishment of the Chen family, the number of people has increased, and the Tianyuan territory has grown larger and larger.
Facing Chen Shen, the patriarch of the Chen family, the mayor of Hope City, and the acting lord of the territory.
Everyone felt more pressure, and they did not dare to say anything that crossed the line for fear of affecting the leader's thinking.
But Su Youzong was different.
He was obviously an ordinary person from a small territory, so why did he dare to be so arrogant as to confront a top thirty territorial lord during their first meeting?
Is it true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers?
"Have a good meal, everyone. I have to go over and apply for a trading license first. After all, workers' wages during the summer harvest depend entirely on this thing."
Putting away the extra white paper, leaving only the last certificate, Sumo stood up, picked it up, waved it in front of everyone, and then showed a bright smile.
After he stood up in a daze, Zhang Min obviously hadn't recovered yet, and was half-pulled and half-dragged away by Somo.
Pay attention throughout the process.
It wasn't until Sumo and Sumo disappeared from sight that the dozen or so people at the table lifted their silence.
"Do you dare?" Chen Kai looked at Chen Zheng beside him.
"I don't dare, do you dare?" Chen Zheng looked at Chen Le next to him.
"How dare I, do you dare?" Chen Le didn't stop, and continued to look at the "unruly" Chen Yi.
Being stared at by everyone, Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Don't look at me, I just sang a few times. How dare you talk to the clan leader like this? Even if you beat me to death, I wouldn't dare."
Do you dare?"
"dare?"
A dozen men in their thirties looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes.
This is not an era where everyone in the lord can sit down and it will be my turn next year.
In troubled times with frequent disasters, people like them often feel overwhelmed when they only deal with the affairs of a county or even a town.
And if you want to deal with a territory, connect different places, races, and even various schools of thought.
The pressure he has to bear, if it were an ordinary person, he would either go crazy or just fail in three or four days. There would be no third possibility.
"He is a very idealistic guy, but his ambition seems a bit too big."
"Yes, he is indeed a bit awesome. I think what Chen Kai said before is right. We have to change our attitude towards him."
"Ambition? This is the world. I am not afraid that you are ambitious, but I am afraid that you are not ambitious!"
"What should I do? I'm a little panicked now. I seemed to have offended Su Youzong severely just now. He won't do anything to me in the future, right?"
"What are you afraid of? If the patriarch really appreciates him and wants to cultivate him, we can just come and apologize."
"Apologise, I'm already in my thirties, how can I apologize to a young man in his twenties?"
After hearing other people's suggestions, Chen Yi scratched his head and looked a little embarrassed.
Some people look forward to changes and are always waiting for change to come quickly.
But some people are afraid of changes, fearing that their current good life will be broken.
In the Tianyuan territory, by coincidence, the Chen family is the group of people who are most looking forward to the changes.
At this time, when I thought that Su Youzong might actually become a variable in the future.
The embarrassment of facing Chen Yi.
After everyone looked at each other, they all burst out laughing, causing the juniors at other tables to cast glances at them.
"It's boring, it's boring. It's really boring to be with these juniors. I'm going to watch the battle."
"I'll go too, wait for me"
"Then what are you waiting for? I want to see how someone who can talk to the clan leader like this will behave."
"."
It only took three to five seconds to stand up.
A dozen steady men jumped up and ran away, and before anyone else could react, the building was empty.
Looking at the empty seats, the other younger members of the Chen family are doing fine.
The other outside groups that came to attend the meeting were all somewhat silent at this time.
Chen Shen's sudden departure caused the first generation members of the Chen family to run away, and they did not know the reason.
But they know it very well.
I'm afraid that after tonight, no one in the small Zizailiangfang in Sangtian Town can keep the pace of improvement!
Just because.
