Chapter 181 Helping Others Should Receive Positive Feedback
Qin Sheng held the pen and waited for a long time but didn't hear Chu Yian speak. He looked up at her and asked puzzledly: "Why don't you say anything?"
Chu Yian smiled at him and put down the cup in his hand: "It's getting late, it's time to go to bed."
Qin Sheng: ...
Qin Sheng opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth, obviously choking.
When the fun is just getting started, you say it's time to go to bed? Can you sleep?
Qin Huaishu also looked at Chu Yian. Chu Yian probably couldn't sleep tonight because his mind was full of thoughts about what Zhang Yi would do.
The two brothers have different expressions, but what is expressed in their eyes is almost identical.
Are you...really going to sleep? Are you sure you don't want to stay up a little longer and write more?
Chu Yian was amused by them.
In the past, Qin Sheng always urged her to go to bed, but today he asked her to stay up a little longer. How could people be so hypocritical?
Chu Yian stood up, patted his sleeves, and said with a smile: "Go to sleep, brother, you should go back."
Qin Huaishu: ...
Qin Huaishu pursed his lips and didn't really want to leave.
He looked up at Chu Yian, his eyes filled with curiosity. After a moment of silence, he said, "Sister-in-law, how about you tell us about Zhang Yi's plan? Just two sentences will do."
Qin Sheng: ...
It’s the first time I see such a big brother, it’s so novel.
But Qin Sheng did not refute and looked at Chu Yian.
He was much more straightforward, looking at Chu Yian with accusatory eyes: "I really can't sleep tonight if you're stuck here."
Chu Yian raised his eyebrows and raised his knife: "It's okay, I will try my best to knock you both out with one blow so that you can sleep well."
Qin Sheng & Qin Huaishu: ...
Qin Sheng did not give up: "You will definitely be scolded by many people tomorrow."
If you stop at the exciting part, you will definitely be scolded.
Chu Yian chuckled twice. These two brothers are usually extremely restrained people, and they try their best to restrain themselves no matter what they encounter.
But tonight was unusual. Chu Yian knew their mood too well, and he might really think about Zhang Yi's plan all night.
It's not good to be so obsessed with it that you can't sleep at night.
She thought for two seconds, then looked at Qin Sheng and Qin Huaishu as if she were looking at two ignorant children. She sighed and said, "Okay, I'll try to be brief. After I'm done, both of you go to bed."
Qin Sheng nodded quickly, looking at her with sparkling eyes.
Qin Huaishu also looked up at her.
Chu Yian was standing there, and looking at them from this angle, she inexplicably had the illusion that these two were good kids and good students. This made her feel a chill in her heart, and she quickly shook off this terrible idea.
After a cough, she said calmly, "Although the six nations have formed an alliance, this alliance is not solid at all. Everyone has their own selfish motives and it's impossible for them to truly work together."
"And this isn't the first time Qin has been resisted by a coalition..."
Having strayed from the topic, Chu Yian quickly coughed and got back to the point: "What I'm going to talk about next is real history, not a storybook."
"After gaining a position of influence in the army, Zhang Yi decided to disrupt the alliance between the six states. He first promoted the idea of 'Heng Lian' (Lian Heng) to the King of Wei, urging Wei to forge an alliance with Qin. The King of Wei refused, so Zhang Yi instigated Qin to attack Wei, leading to its defeat."
"The following year, Qin attacked Han again, severely defeating it and beheading 80,000 of its people. This greatly intimidated other countries."
"Zhang Yi went to persuade the King of Wei again. The King of Wei was terrified and had no choice but to agree to establish diplomatic relations with Qin."
"Then he turned his attention to Qi and Chu. At that time, the Qi-Chu alliance had caused quite a stir, and Zhang Yi was planning to destroy it."
"So he offered to cede 600 li of Shangyu land to Qin as bait to get King Huai of Chu to break off diplomatic relations with Qi. King Huai of Chu was tempted and did as he was told."
"King Huai of Chu then sent people to take over the 600 li of land, but Zhang Yi pretended to fall and did not attend court for three months."
"King Huai of Chu felt that he had not severed ties with Qi thoroughly enough, so he sent envoys to Qi to insult the King of Qi, completely breaking off relations with Qi and causing a severe strain on relations."
"King Huai of Chu sent a special envoy to take back the 600 li of land, but Zhang Yi said, 'You heard me wrong. I said 6 li, not 600 li.'"
Qin Sheng: ...
Qin Huaishu: ...
The two brothers opened their mouths, as if they both wanted to say something, but they held it back.
Those two pairs of clear eyes seemed to be shaking, and they couldn't believe that this was actually recorded in official history.
Chu Yian looked at the two young men in front of him and smiled with relief.
Yes, that’s right, that’s the expression.
She had the same expression when she first heard about this, even more shocked than them.
She really couldn't hold it anymore, and her whole body almost broke apart.
This is because King Huai of Chu did not live in modern times, otherwise he would have called the police and hugged Uncle Hat's thigh, accusing Zhang Yi of fraud in tears.
At this moment, Chu Yian wished he could hear the thoughts of Qin Sheng and Qin Huaishu, listen to what these two brothers were thinking, and whether their curses were particularly harsh.
She hated it! She hated the system for not giving her this cheat.
Qin Huaishu didn't know how he walked out of Fuhuayuan. He was filled with a sense of unreality.
It’s over. I really won’t be able to sleep tonight.
He remembered the question he asked Chu Yian before leaving: If Zhang Yi did this, would people in the future scold him?
Chu Yian said no, those who knew this history all cursed King Huai of Chu.
Of course, the biggest reason for scolding King Huai of Chu was not that he was deceived.
Rather, it was Qu Yuan who advocated the Qi-Chu alliance, and thanks to his efforts the national strength of Chu was enhanced.
However, King Huai of Chu believed the slander of villains and alienated Qu Yuan, and even broke off diplomatic relations with the State of Qi.
After discovering that he had been deceived, he angrily attacked Qin but suffered a crushing defeat. The State of Chu began to decline from then on.
The next monarch who succeeded him was equally incompetent. He believed in slander and exiled Qu Yuan. At that time, Bai Qi, a famous general of Qin, led his army to attack the capital of Chu, and Chu was facing the crisis of national destruction.
Qu Yuan felt that he had no way to serve his country, the country's future was hopeless, and his personal ideals were shattered. In extreme despair, he hugged a stone and jumped into the river.
There were many reasons for Qu Yuan's death, but King Huai of Chu must bear some responsibility.
People in later generations actually don’t care whether the Chu State was destroyed or not. At most, they would say that it was the trend of the times and the inevitable development of history.
However, Qu Yuan's death is a pain in the hearts of many people, otherwise there would not be the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate Qu Yuan.
Although the deaths of many people in history are regrettable, Qu Yuan’s death is actually not a big deal for Chu Yian. After all, during the Warring States Period, all the countries were fighting like this, so it was normal for anyone to die.
Regret his death, but also accept his death.
If we were to ask whose death in history was the most unacceptable to Chu Yian, it would definitely be Yue Fei.
I want to cry every time I think about it. I cry every time I see Yue Fei's death. I almost wish she was wearing the Song Dynasty instead of the non-existent Dashun Dynasty.
Unfortunately, she also knew that history was not so easy to change, so she could not return to the Song Dynasty and could only come to this strange country.
But does her coming here also mean that she has changed the established history of this world?
If we follow the original history, what would be the ending of the Qin family?
Chu Yian didn't know and couldn't think about this problem.
There is a huge paradox here. She doesn't know what the original history was like, so she can't judge.
Maybe she was destined to come to this world?
Chu Yian slapped his face and stopped thinking about this problem.
She still had a lot of things to do tomorrow. She had to arrange for someone to pick up the girls from Dashi Village and bring them to Shengjing, and then find someone who was good at speaking to make promises to the men in Dashi Village.
Qin Sheng and Qin Huaishu were both very busy, so she just had to arrange everything and send the person over. Qin Huaishu just had to say hello to the people in Guang'an. Chu Yian didn't need them to do everything.
However, the time given to the men of Dashi Village to make a decision cannot be too long, otherwise it will delay her mission.
It is only four or five days away from Qin Sheng's departure.
She only gave the men two days to make a decision and pack up.
Thinking of this, Chu Yian couldn't help but frown. What should I do with those old guys? I can't take them with me, I'm afraid they will die on the way.
Chu Yian lay on the bed and closed his eyes to think. The strong and healthy ones left. Those old guys couldn't go too far, so it would be fine to arrange for them to stay in a place closer.
In short, they cannot be allowed to stay in the village under any circumstances. At least, they cannot be allowed to return to the village and exploit them until the women in Dashi Village become strong-willed.
Chu Yian opened his eyes again as he thought about it.
By the way, she seems to have a lot of land to cultivate. Although it is already being cultivated by others, it should not be difficult to divide some of it up.
Or she could buy a piece of land a little further away, and find a reason to lure those old beasts over there. When she gets there, isn't it her who has the final say on whether to beat, scold, or teach them a lesson?
Compared to those strong young people, these old beasts are more hateful.
Not only have they bullied people their entire lives, they have also taught their children and grandchildren to continue bullying the women in their family.
Don't look at their age, they are very strong when fighting.
Chu Yian thought about it for a moment and quickly made up his mind.
Let’s wait until those old guys are completely unable to move before sending them home. Then we’ll see how they can still beat people.
If any of those women insisted on bringing their elders, sons, or husbands back to take care of Chu Yian, there would be nothing to say.
But if she is bullied again, she will definitely not care.
Although opening a cloth shop to provide a livelihood for those women seemed to be making money for her.
But the income here is totally disproportionate to the expenditure there, and it is not easy to earn back the money she spent.
It will take at least several years for the money to be earned back and we will have to keep spending money.
So she was doing this entirely at her own expense, which was a thankless task and she would end up being blamed for it.
Chu Yian frowned tightly. Interpersonal relationships are very complicated. In addition to husband-wife relationships, there are also mother-son and father-daughter relationships.
Although the women in Dashi Village are exploited, not everyone is willing to let their men leave home for so many years.
Money can temporarily comfort their hearts, but after a long time, someone might blame her for sending the person too far away and the person cannot come back, and ask her to hand the person over.
The system's vision in selecting people has always been good, but this time there are so many people, and this task was only assigned by Huang Sanya alone.
Chu Yian really wasn't sure if every woman in Dashi Village was worth saving, and if there was even one ungrateful person, it would give her a heart attack.
I hope the system is reliable enough this time.
At least give her some room for choice and don't dampen her enthusiasm for helping others.
The system seemed to have heard what Chu Yian was thinking, and it projected a message into her mind: [We try our best to help every woman in need, but some people have been assimilated into exploiters and abusers in this environment.]
[They are women too. Having been oppressed themselves, they now oppress other women. It is difficult for such people to change.]
[The system does not require the host to help these people. If the host wants, they can send them away as well.]
[If a decision is made, this system will make a list for the host. ]
Helping others rationally, objectively, and without presumption should yield positive feedback. If helping others instead leads to negative feedback, who would dare to do good deeds in the long run?
[So, the host just needs to keep moving forward. The system will strictly control the selection of task targets and will not allow anyone unworthy of help to dampen the host's enthusiasm.]
