Chapter 936: Let Zhengzheng go down the well

I never expected Zhengzheng to speak up for them.

I raised my voice and said: "Zhengzheng, do the Woguo people reflect?"

They don't reflect worth a damn. If they reflected, why wouldn't they apologize to us,

why do they still worship ghosts?

You, what should I say.

Don't just see the surface and think their place is good.

They talk about benevolence and righteousness,

Do they even know what benevolence and righteousness mean?

Hmph, they feign benevolence and righteousness.

Look at their society—why are there so many perverts,

Their etiquette is excessive and overly complicated.

constantly bowing and scraping,

Actually, their inner selves—there is always a barrier between people,

you can never enter their hearts.

Zhengzheng, they fundamentally lack loyalty and filial piety,

how many elderly people die alone and sick at home—I'm sure you know that better than I do.

They are an island nation, and their resources are scarce.

This has caused their psychology to become distorted,

on one hand they are arrogant and conceited, on the other hand they are deeply insecure.

I have had brief contact with them,

they are basically not human; they are half-human, half-beast.

Currently, they have an economic foundation supporting them. Their society shows no signs of pathology,

when their economy declines severely,

they will reveal their beastly nature.

It seems you really need to study that history thoroughly.

What I want to tell you is,

Zhengzheng, you must be clear that the blood flowing in your veins is Chinese.

You are not a Woguo person,

you will never assimilate into their society.

you need to be clear-headed about this."

When my voice sounded higher than his, Zhengzheng lowered his head again and remained silent.

I deeply regret letting Zhengzheng go abroad to study in Woguo.

I've ruined this child.

"Woguo has always longed for our domestic resources.

They are too poor,

and earthquakes and volcanoes are frequent,

who knows when they might face a national extinction disaster.

For this reason, they dream of living on the mainland,

to propagate their race on the mainland.

This people, when they see our living environment,

they all drool with desire.

Zhengzheng, you should be proud.

Our economy is currently developing rapidly and will soon surpass theirs.

Once our economy surpasses theirs,

our view of Woguo will no longer be the same.

Previously we might have had to look up to them,

because their income is high and their household appliances are good.

Nowadays, look around you—who still uses Woguo-made products?

This shows we are progressing while they are regressing.

Look at them with an even gaze.

You will find that this nation has serious pathology.

Things like chrysanthemums and swords,

in their cultural propaganda, haven't you seen,

they are all demons and monsters,

all of it is pathological.

They admire yin, feminine beauty,

their movies, books, etc.,

are all promoting apocalyptic culture.

Hmph, there is not a trace of yang, masculine vigor.

They treat women as not human,

In their eyes, women are merely tools.

Zhengzheng, the tenderness you enjoyed in Woguo is nothing but servile tenderness.

We shouldn't only look at their good side; we must also see their bad side.

I hope you can think independently.

You like life there; I won't stop you.

But you cannot do things that betray us.

Why am I angry today, and why am I saying all this to you?

That is you secretly doing some things,

which are extremely frightening.

You use the so-called cooperation as an excuse to cover up your betrayal.

We haven't discovered it today,

"You might even cooperate with the Woguo people with just one step, possibly even selling the entire Qi He Kuang to them?" I said sternly, looking at Zhengzheng.

"Dad, what's wrong with selling to them? Their production efficiency is higher than ours.

I feel that handing it over to them,

would yield greater benefits than keeping it in our hands." Zhengzheng said immediately.

Upon hearing that,

I raised my hand,

and slapped Zhengzheng across the face.

"You little bastard, I'm not dead yet.

As long as I live one more day, the Qi He Kuang will never cooperate with Woguo, let alone be sold to them.

Zhengzheng,

why did I hit you today?

I just want to tell you,

if you want to live with me in Zaocheng,

you must first acknowledge where you're from and where you stand.

If you don't want to live here,

I'll buy you a plane ticket today and you can leave right away."

Zhengzheng covered his face,

looking at me, afraid to speak.

I then stood up,

"Zhengzheng, I'll ask again: do you want to go back or stay? Speak quickly."

"I… I…." Zhengzheng covered his face, looking anguished.

"Speak up—if you want to live here, you must obey me.

Stop bringing up Woguo; if you don't want to stay, I won't hold you back.

From now on, you walk your own narrow bridge.

We'll walk our own broad road." I said, stood up, and prepared to leave.

"Dad, I want to stay." Zhengzheng also rose to his feet.

"All right, if you want to stay, starting tomorrow you'll work alongside the ordinary laborers, going down the mine.

After a year of labor, we'll talk again." I said, then pushed open the door and walked out of the office.

As soon as I stepped out, I ran into Xiao Feng,

"Jianqiang, how is it? What did you say to Zhengzheng?"

"How did I say it? Let him work the mine for a year first, then we'll talk.

Xiao Feng, this kid, don't pamper him too much.

If he wants to stay here, he must go down the mine.

If he doesn't want to, buy him a plane ticket right away and send him off.

Save me the trouble in front of me." I said.

"Jianqiang, making Zhengzheng work the mine for a year—can you bear it? Forget it, just educate the kid a bit; he hasn't made a big mistake." Xiao Feng comforted.

"Xiao Feng, on this matter you must listen to me.

I love them, that's my own business,

but in major affairs I cannot act recklessly.

I have my own bottom line, and Zhengzheng's actions have already crossed it.

There must be punishment.

First, let him work the mine for a year, then we'll talk.

How can one grow without enduring hardship?

Let him know that money doesn't come easily,

These years he's been abroad without life's pressures, mainly because Ya Qian and Shi Yong have been giving him money.

He doesn't want to work, so he lives easily,

so he can talk while standing without back pain.

If we want this child to truly mature,

it's to make him understand how hard survival is.

Ya Qin gifted him the property,

I will keep it for him.

After a year, we'll see the situation and then tell him about it.

I'll go back and have Ya Qin retrieve it first; the amount of money is too great and could also harm Zhengzheng.

By the way, Xiao Feng, find a history teacher nearby,

when Zhengzheng is off work and has nothing to do, specifically give him a refresher on that period of history.

the history of us allowing the Woguo people to invade in the past,

let him see clearly what kind of beasts the Woguo people are, and look at what they have done here.

"Jianqiang, I agree.

Zhengzheng does have some matters that really need to be sorted out.

He kept talking about Woguo matters in front of me.

I feel he can no longer be described as worshipful; now he even hates being born here," Xiao Feng said, looking at me.

At that moment I looked at Zhengzheng in the room and said: "Zhengzheng, your ideas, your perspective might also be something we cannot change.

But what I want to tell you is that the blood flowing in you is indeed that of the locals.

You will never integrate into the Woguo people's circle,

unless you are reborn in Woguo.

Ya Qin's transferred property to you,

I'll have Ya Qin temporarily take it back for a while, and after a year see if you have changed.

If not, you will no longer inherit this property.

I, Zhao Jianqiang, keep my word.

Including the feelings between us.

In your eyes, you see me as a father,

so you must study that period of history properly,

to see whether the Woguo people truly are beasts.

If you don't acknowledge me, the father‑son bond ends today.

You may leave at any time. I will never keep you.
