Chapter 1164: Challenging the Dragon
Suppression from top to bottom is called the imperial art, and penetration from bottom to top is called the dragon-slaying art.
Lei Zhen is not very proficient in the art of being an emperor, which is determined by his starting point, but he is very proficient in the art of slaying dragons, because from the beginning to now, he has been slaying dragons in every class he has crossed.
"A cup of tea?"
"Yuwei, why are you standing there? Pour some tea."
Hearing this, Xiang Yuwei's body trembled, and then she reacted.
She was frightened. It was the first time she knew that there was a terrifying force above her husband that indirectly controlled the world, or class, they lived in.
This is a bit too scary, but the scariest thing is the negotiations that the gentleman conducted with them.
It is more of a threat than a negotiation, using the destruction of the world as a bargaining chip to make the other party back down, eventually break away from the control of the upper echelons and form a cooperative relationship.
How dare he?
The more Xiang Yuwei thought about it, the more frightened she became, because in her mind, the lower class must absolutely obey the upper class.
"Change to new cups. They don't like these two." Lei Zhen said with a smile, "Sister Long Shu, it's time to drink the second cup of tea, right? Our cooperation can't be finalized in one go. I might be a corpse by the time we talk next time, haha."
No negotiation can be concluded in one go, especially when the other party is of upper class status.
If control is delegated so easily, especially to someone like Lei Zhen who is full of ambition and will destroy everything if he doesn't get it.
"Why are your hands shaking? Sister Long Shu is not a man-eating tiger. She is easy to get along with." Lei Zhen comforted Xiang Yuwei.
"yes……"
Xiang Yuwei took a deep breath, changed the cup and poured tea.
After pouring it, Lei Zhen personally brought one of the cups to Long Shu.
"Sister Long Shu, I know the consequences, so this cup of tea might be the last one I offer you." Lei Zhen said casually, "I hope you won't refuse. After all, I'm a wonderful person, right?"
He stood up, took the tea in front of the old man and threw it directly to the ground.
“Snap!”
The teacup shattered, and the tea smelled fragrant.
"you--"
The old man flew into a rage.
But Lei Zhen didn't even look at him, because the other party was just there for company.
Now that things have been said, there's no need to be polite.
The reason I let you continue sitting here is just to give Long Shu face, otherwise you would have to wait somewhere else.
"Next, I will first endure the capture of my family. If I manage to escape, it will be your turn to take action."
"If I want you to cooperate, I must demonstrate extraordinary abilities and be able to withstand a series of attacks until you are unable to do anything to me."
"I understand everything. Please have some tea, haha."
This is insight, knowing exactly what will happen next.
Dragon slaying is not simply killing the dragon, it also has another meaning: making the dragon follow one's will and achieve one's goals.
Dragons are powerful. Many people slay them, but few succeed.
Holding the leader's handle to threaten him is slaying a dragon, using the beauty trap to tie the leader down is slaying a dragon, and giving him a lot of money is also slaying a dragon.
Only if you can withstand the backlash can you be considered successful.
"I'll drink this cup of tea."
Having said that, Long Shu picked up the teacup, drank it all, and then stood up.
"Mr. Lei, I admire you for being a man and seeing through everything, but what I admire most is your suicidal behavior."
"The oppression from above is simply not something you can bear. You think too highly of yourself and underestimate us."
Not angry, just stating a fact.
This is also their confidence. People standing on a high place can see the animal world below.
"Sister Long Shu, I'm also a high-level plunderer." Lei Zhen said with a smile, "It's because I think highly of you and myself that I do this. After all, I don't have the habit of being a dog."
Suppression and being suppressed, suppression and resistance.
Most people will resist when they are oppressed, but they usually make accusations rather than taking actual action. There is a fear behind the recognition of class.
Just like a mouse seeing a cat, it is naturally suppressed by its bloodline.
Orientals, in particular, are the most rule-abiding and are also the most willing to acknowledge class structures. This is a strict hierarchical concept formed by Confucian education over thousands of years.
There is also the concept of hierarchy, which emphasizes social order and harmony and believes that individuals have fixed positions and responsibilities in society, which is mainly reflected in respect for elders and authority, as well as the maintenance of social order.
The king is the king, and the minister is the minister.
Scholars, farmers, workers, merchants, the upper nine classes, the middle nine classes, the lower nine classes, etc.
But one thing is that once Orientals break the rules, it will be a fight to the death, because they have thrown away their education, and once they throw away their education, they will have no more scruples.
"Even if I were a dog, I'd be a wild dog without any restraints. When I'm hungry, my eyes turn red, and I'll tear a piece of flesh from a person, skin and flesh included." Lei Zhen stared at Long Shu coldly and said, "Do you know why I've put myself in such a low position? It's not to please you, but to give you an idea of what a wild dog is. It's more ferocious than a hungry wolf, because wolves don't understand humans, but wild dogs do!"
Although his expression was calm, he had actually bared his sharp fangs, revealing his aggressive nature and challenging the dragon.
"Mr. Lei, is this necessary?" Long Shu asked.
She originally wanted to leave, but when she found that Lei Zhen was ready to fight to the death, she had to stop.
It doesn’t matter if others risk their lives, they can be dealt with anyway, but the man in front of me is risking his life, so I have to take it seriously, because this guy is different.
The momentum can be faked, but the cannons and missiles are real.
"Can I do otherwise?" Lei Zhen suddenly smiled. "It's come to this. Do I, Lei Zhen, have any way out? Since there's no way out, I can only move on. Maybe your strength is far beyond my reach, but even if I die, I can still severely damage you!"
This is Mr. Lei’s attitude, this is the spirit of Shenhua.
Challenge all powers, enter the game as a mad dog, and become the most arrogant desperado.
This is indeed the case, Lei Zhen has no way out.
In the past, he was inferior to others because he had not yet reached the top, so he always had to use roundabout strategies. But now he would never make such a choice because in the normal world he has already reached the top.
There is no possibility of further expansion, so we must face attacks from above.
Even if he listens to the other party now, he will eventually be replaced, because after he let 100,000 people in, an irreconcilable contradiction has already been formed.
Faced with the situation here, we can't proceed step by step, we can only start from the top.
Long Shu looked at him deeply, then stood up and left.
"etc--"
Lei Zhen called Long Shu and handed her the remaining Dahongpao.
"Once you're here, you're a guest. There's no reason to go back empty-handed. I don't have anything good here, so I'll give you this Da Hong Pao that I'm reluctant to drink."
He stuffed the tea leaves directly into Long Shu's hand, and then stared at the jade pendant on her waist.
"It's a gift to return the favor. How about giving me the jade pendant?"
“Bold!”
The old man was furious and put his right hand on the table.
The table just shook slightly, as if nothing had happened.
But after a few seconds, cracks appeared on the tabletop and then it collapsed.
“Crash!”
The solid wooden table was broken into pieces, causing Lei Zhen's pupils to shrink. Xiang Yuwei, who was standing next to him, turned pale with fright.
"Dark power?"
"sharp!"
Lei Zhen turned around and stretched out his right hand towards the old man.
"An expert is an expert. It was me, Lei Zhen, who neglected him... Why don't you give me some face?"
"Mr. Lei, this jade pendant is for you."
Long Shu raised her hand and the jade pendant drew an arc in the air.
"Thank you."
After receiving the jade pendant, Lei Zhen expressed his gratitude.
Then he walked the two of them to the door, with his right hand gently resting on the old man's shoulder, but he was shaken away as soon as he put it there, which was a pity.
Finally, under his gaze, the two walked away.
"call--"
Lei Zhen blew gently on his right hand and showed a harmless smile.
