20 years of restarting life

Chapter 3183 Shan Cai's Doubts

She hesitated for a moment, turned her pretty face away from Zhao Changan, and looked out the window at the Leifeng Pagoda on Sunset Mountain across the West Lake.

Although the tower has not yet been delivered, the entire tower has been basically completed. In the midday sun, the glazed tiles of the tower are shining.

Shan Cai said in a calm tone: "My mother is my mother, I am me, I am not her."

These words, coming out of Dan Cai's little mouth, carry a lot of weight.

This girl, who is just 20 years old, has undergone great changes in her overall ability, thinking, and perspective after two and a half years of training in college. She is also gradually forming her own unique outlook on life and values.

What makes Zhao Changan happy and relieved is that Shan Cai in this life still maintains the kindness and justice of the previous life. She does not choose to follow her own lead or remain silent just because her mother is a vested interest.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Xiao Cai, remember, I have never had the thought of blaming Sister Qiangwei."

Zhao Changan thought about it and felt it necessary to express his true thoughts so that Shan Cai would understand that he should not cause a rift between the mother and daughter.

That was a scene that Zhao Changan absolutely did not want to see. Even if he and Shan Qian did not have that kind of relationship between a man and a woman, he still thought this way.

And this is not just about Shan Qian, it also involves Shan Cai.

Zhao Changan said to Shan Cai seriously, "Let me ask you a question. Suppose you raise a pig. When it is still a little pig, it is very fun. You even treat it as a playmate. However, as time goes by, you gradually become sensible, and this little pig grows into a fat pig. Then, do you know the final fate of this fat pig? Can you change it? You should understand the meaning of the change I said. It does not really refer to this fat pig specifically, and it can even be extended to the fate of the entire pig population. The proposition is that pigs are raised for eating."

Shan Cai shook her head: "If I raise a pig, I should be able to change the fate of this pig, but for the entire pig world, I am of course powerless. But what does this have to do with these?"

"Don't understand? Then let me ask you a second question. Suppose you have a little tiger. It is very cute when it is young. You even treat it as a playmate. You eat vegetables and feed it vegetables. However, as time goes by, you gradually become sensible, and the little tiger grows into a fierce tiger. And you still want to continue feeding it vegetables. If you are a naive person, then I won't say anything. But you are not. You are a very smart person. When you give it vegetables again, it doesn't eat well. It becomes thinner day by day. There is a strange emotion in the eyes when looking at you. Do you know why?"

Shan Cai was silent for a while, then said with some difficulty: "It wants to eat meat. This is what the ancients meant by raising a tiger to cause trouble."

"Yes, this is the nature of tigers. Eating meat is the same as the mission of pigs, which is to work hard to gain weight and then be served on the human table. The only difference is that the former is a biological instinct for tigers to eat meat, while killing pigs and eating meat is a survival habit that humans have developed over millions of years."

Zhao Changan said: "So when you were raising this pig or this tiger, when they were still very young, no matter how innocent and cute they were at the moment, you already had the answer to their future in your heart. People with different personalities will have different choices at this time. The question is, do you think I am the kind of soft-hearted and indecisive person?"

Shan Cai looked at Zhao Changan with her beautiful eyes: "Aren't you a soft-hearted person?"

"I don't think I am." "I think you are!"

"Then let me say it in a bigger way. When a country is still weak, it is often very humble in front of the great powers, giving up its airspace, territorial waters, customs and even the power of autonomy. Some great powers robbed a huge amount of resources from this country, gave a little bit of profit, and then shamelessly claimed that they were civilized people and that they were fair trade with each other.

However, once this country becomes strong, it will certainly make its voice heard on the world stage, its demands and its cry. At least it will abolish those unequal treaties first. You should understand this point. So are we saying that this country is not as good as those angry powers said, and should just curl up and sleep like the monk in the night boat? Instead of just letting the little monk stretch his legs. "

Shan Cai probably understood what Zhao Changan wanted to express by now.

That is to say, things have their own nature, just like a tree that is constantly growing upwards. In order to survive and grow instinctively, the roots below will dig deep and expand around it.

The roots that grow downwards are meant to compete for sunlight in the tree crown, which has stronger wind resistance. The fibrous roots that expand in all directions are meant to compete with surrounding plants for water and nutrients.

The tree crown above absorbs and controls as much sunlight as possible, and cooperates with the root system below, so that the areas shaded by the tree crown and where the root system is spread are barren, making it like a dead place.

That is to say, when you plant this tree, you should know the series of changes that will follow, just like capital pursues blood and wolf cubs want to eat meat when they grow up.

When Zhao Changan was supporting his mother to take control of Luyuan step by step, he had already anticipated the current situation, because of his mother's character, and as her power grows, her ambition and the desire to implement her personal voice and will, as well as the collective upward momentum of the meat-eating circle formed with her as the core, will become stronger and stronger.

The only way for Zhao Changan to avoid a situation where they become enemies is to withdraw or honestly hand over his power and become a subordinate to others.

However, since he had anticipated all this long ago, choosing to withdraw now was also in line with the decision he had made before.

"why?"

Shan Cai still couldn't understand the logic behind this, that is, why Zhao Changan was so good to his mother.

The huge changes in the list of shareholders of Green Garden Group this time can be said to have given Shan Cai a great shock, and it was also the first time for her to truly look back and carefully examine the path her mother has taken in the past few years.

Some things can be said to be obscure to those involved, but as long as these people involved are smart enough and can successfully replace their own perspective and try to look at things from the perspective of an outsider, they can often know more things that others do not know and that they have not cared about before because they have been in the situation before.

Even though Shan Cai was only seeing the brief outline of his mother on the timeline and space dimension, he felt a little chilled and unbelievable.
