Chapter 35 Suicide

May 16, 2018

Money is omnipotent.

This sentence is a true saying in a peaceful and prosperous era. The more social order and civilization is highly developed, the stronger the existence of money. As a general equivalent exchange, owning money is almost equivalent to having everything in a civilized society.

In the eyes of the Qinglian Academy, Zhao Chenlu, who earns 30,000 spirit stones a day, is of course the same as the gods. As long as he worships him, he can get the ultimate bliss.

"Lord Zhao, please have tea."

Feng Xiaolu, the leader of the Tiangong Group of the academy and the second-ranked elder, served a cup of fragrant tea she had treasured for many years very attentively, and placed it with Zhao Chenlu.

"Master Zhao, please use refreshments." Elder No. 3 Shang Wuming was not willing to be outdone and placed the precious dessert he had made great efforts to book aside the teacup.

"Master Zhao, please have another drink!" Tan Luo, who had slowed down a few steps, had to lick his face and serve another cup of tea.

In response to this, the chief elder Shang Miaoyu just shook his head, sighing that the colleagues in the academy really don’t understand the worldly ways, so they are not worthy of being her opponents.

Then she also brought a cup of fragrant tea, but it was brought to Wang Jiu's hand. The new dean of the academy has been in the meeting hall for so long, and there is not even a person who can bring him tea and water. The monks of the academy are also very upright.

But Shang Miaoyu obviously has a higher emotional intelligence. It can be seen that it is better to flatter Wang Jiu who she cares most than to directly praise Zhao Chenlu.

However, as soon as the cup of tea was put on, Zhao Chenlu sneered.

"You are so brave to show your kindness in front of me."

Shang Miaoyu was stunned at the time: "I am showing my kindness to you!"

"My man wants to drink tea, won't I go and pour it myself? What should I do if someone reminds me?" Zhao Chenlu disdained this so-called attentiveness, "You are the stupidest of the few people!"

This sentence was so heartbreaking that Shang Miaoyu felt that the blood and blood flowed backwards and had a tendency to explode.

But Zhao Chenlu didn't wait for Shang Miaoyu to accumulate strength to explode, and then said: "I have seen the enthusiasm of the academy, but I also know that the academy does not have free tea. The several people are full of enthusiasm, so they should ask for me, and I don't waste time saying politely. Of course I can do it if I want to sponsor it, but I also have the conditions. I need the right to participate in your research projects."

Before he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the meeting hall became cold in an instant. All the elders looked like a cold and indifferent expression that they had lost interest. Tan Luo even looked at the tea placed beside Zhao Chenlu, showing a reluctance and reluctance expression, as if he wanted to suck the poured tea with a rag and twist it back.

Zhao Chenlu suddenly realized that she might have committed some taboos to distorting scholars, but she had never looked down on Qinglian Academy before, and had never conducted any investigation into the scholars' temperaments. She really didn't know what she said wrongly.

Are they not satisfied with this kind of sponsorship with simple conditions? They have to squander the sponsorship funds without any interference? How many idiots will agree to this sponsorship condition now?

At this time, Shang Miaoyu coughed and said, "Master Zhao, you may have misunderstood our Qinglian Academy. Although we love money, we love money to be able to do research freely. If we cannot do freely when doing research, no matter how much money we have, it is meaningless. On the issue of free research, the Qinglian people have no room for compromise, and we will never sell the principle for money!"

After saying these words, there was a burst of applause in the meeting hall, and Shang Miaoyu seemed to have become a hero of Qinglian.

On the other hand, Zhao Chenlu naturally became the ugly villain showing off his wealth and became the target of public criticism.

This kind of treatment is only a handful of Zhao Chenlu's decades of life. She has the best beauty in the world, and no matter how she does it, she will always be forgiven. Those who have been harmed by her usually only conspire and curse behind her back. When Zhao Chenli really comes to Zhao Chenli, looking at her unparalleled beautiful face, no matter how angry she is, she will decline. But these Qinglian scholars completely lack aesthetic ability and turn a blind eye to her beauty.

This sense of frustration gradually dissipated the smile on Zhao Chen's face.

A woman suffered many setbacks in her life. Whether it was the Zhao Yueming period in her previous life or Zhao Chenlu in this life, she had experienced many failures, so of course she would not be unable to afford to lose. However, it is another matter to become a laughing stock in front of her lover.

However, just as Zhao Chenlu was about to do something, Wang Jiu suddenly spoke.

"The free research system of academy has great disadvantages. Next, I will abolish the free research system and establish a president's decision-making system."

Before the second half of the sentence was finished, the meeting hall was filled with protests and opposition.

At this time, of course, Shang Miaoyu took the lead and stood up on behalf of the elders of the academy: "The free research system is the spiritual core of Qinglian Academy for two thousand years and is the foundation of Qinglian Academy's establishment. If you abolish the free research system, you will abolish the entire Qinglian Academy!"

Wang Jiu said: "Sangzhou two thousand years ago and Xiangzhou today are already two worlds. The spiritual core at that time, why did you pass on it so righteously and unwaveringly yet?"

"...Because Qinglian Academy relies on this spiritual core to maintain the noble status of the Third Hospital for two thousand years!"

Wang Jiu then asked, "So you care more about the dignity of status than whether the spiritual core itself is suitable?"

How could the eloquent Shang Miaoyu be stumped by such a problem? He shook his head and said, "The status of the academy just shows that our spiritual core supports the academy. It has made sufficient contributions to the development of the Xiangzhou continent in two thousand years, so that it can win the respect of everyone!"

"So the core of the problem is not the spiritual core itself, but whether this spiritual core is effective and can serve the overall development of Xiangzhou?"

Shang Miaoyu pondered for a moment and decided to deny this view.

Although it is not wrong to emphasize effectiveness in fact, the purpose of the Qinglian Academy’s creation school is not to squander the hard-earned resources and wealth at will, and to study the evil methods of the strange schools by nature. Instead, to make good use of one’s own talents to push human civilization forward... But Wang Jiu’s words seem too utilitarian.

"Academies have never been such a utilitarian organization. If we just emphasize the so-called effectiveness, why should we study hard? Isn't it better to just learn from the monks of Tiangong Academy to directly devote themselves to the construction of Xiangzhou? What the academies seek is the ultimate wisdom and the truth of the immortal path. The people of Xiangzhou respect the academies is certainly because we have made outstanding contributions to this wisdom, but it is also because of human respect for wisdom itself."

After Shang Miaoyu said this, she felt that she had completely built a set of logical fortresses, and no matter how the opponent attacked, she could easily resist it.

Our grand Qinglian Academy is to squander money and conduct research regardless of profits or consequences, and then to pursue wisdom and oppose us to oppose wisdom and oppose civilization! The spiritual core of our Qinglian Academy is invincible!

However, as soon as Shang Miaoyu finished speaking, Wang Jiu immediately found a flaw.

"Then now my wisdom is higher than all of you, so you must respect my decision for granted."

This sentence is a naked provocation when it comes to Qinglian Academy, which advocates wisdom. Without Shang Miaoyu, someone jumped out with great dissatisfaction.

Tan Luo slapped the table and said, "I'm so arrogant. Why do you say that your wisdom is higher than all of us?"

Wang Jiu said: "You can use any measurement procedures that your academy already has to do the test."

"Test it! Who is afraid of you?" Tan Luo was about to agree, but he felt that the invisible force behind him was pulled by the invisible force. In amazement, he heard Shang Miaoyu's secret words coming.

"Don't get his aggressive method. He dares to challenge the academy's intelligence test with such confidence. There must be some conspiracy and tricks. A man who can make Zhao Chenlu fall in love with him and let the leader of the Holy Sect choose as his successor may really have an incomparable advantage in the intellectual level."

Tan Luo was dissatisfied, but reason also told him that this judgment was very reasonable, so he closed his mouth helplessly.

Shang Miaoyu said: "It doesn't mean anything that a person has unique features in a certain field. Even if a person has unique features in all fields, it doesn't mean that he can suppress other people's opinions. Because a person's intelligence is limited..."

Wang Jiu asked: "Then why is the research direction of the five research groups of the academy decided by the group leader rather than by everyone's vote?"

Shang Miaoyu said: "Because this is to ensure basic research efficiency..."

"So, in order to improve efficiency, it would be better for me to decide the research direction instead of the five team leaders' decisions?"

"Of course not good." Shang Miaoyu said, "There is a balance between free research and arbitrary behavior, and this balance is the rules of the academy. You can think that we are sticking to the rules, but the experience of the past two thousand years shows that observing certain rules is the guarantee for humans to maximize their ability to exert their talents."

Wang Jiu said: "So you will strictly abide by the hospital rules?"

Shang Miaoyu said: "...Yes, I will abide by the rules of the hospital."

Wang Jiu said: "Okay, I have contacted the leader of the Holy Sect just now. He agreed to amend the academy rules, abolish the free research system, and change it to the decision-making of the president. So next I hope you can cooperate with Zhao Chenlu in research on related topics."

Zhao Chenlu was so moved that she exploded: "Dear, you..."

The people in Qinglian Academy were furious and almost exploded: "You actually pretend to be public and private!?"

Wang Jiu said: "This is a rational judgment. Zhao Chenlu's intelligence index is higher than that of everyone present. Based on the consideration of efficiency maximization, when she has a topic of interest, it is the right choice for you to cooperate with her to conduct relevant research."
