Chapter 503(2/2)
"Yes, there is some truth. But things in this world are sometimes simple, and sometimes they are extremely complicated. Take our Ming Dynasty, for example, with a population of 140 million. These people have to eat, drink, urinate, and encounter floods.
, locust plagues, droughts, plagues, etc., the government still needs relief.
Moreover, among these 140 million people, everyone has their own thoughts and ideas. How to bring so many people together and prevent them from conflicts. This is extremely complicated!
So! Being an emperor is the highest level of knowledge in the world, and not everyone can be qualified to do so." Li Xiao patted Shi Lang's head and said with a smile.
"I don't know any profound knowledge. I only know that I will be loyal to whoever can make the people live a good life. Because I am also a common person, and those who make me live a good life are all good people." Xiao Shi Lang faced
Li Xiao has no stage fright at all.
"Interesting boy. Do you want to be a general one day and fight for the country to expand its territory?"
"I want to!" Shi Lang agreed without saying a word.
"Our domestic war is over, and there will be no more wars after the unification of China. In the future, the country will expand outward most at sea. The imperial court has set up the Daming Shipbuilding School in Shanhaiguan. I would like to recommend you to study. What do you think? Let me talk first.
Well, Shanhaiguan is far away from here in Liaodong. You can't be with your parents!" Li Xiao looked like the wolf grandma who deceived the little pig.
"Yes! I'm willing to go, but I want to take my brother with me." Shi Lang only hesitated for two seconds before agreeing.
"Oh! Why is this?" Li Xiao asked with interest.
"Brothers fighting tigers, father and son go into battle. My father is not suitable for the battlefield. I have to take my brother with me in future wars. Otherwise, if I am not here, he will be bullied and no one will help him." Shi Lang hugged Shi Xian tighter.
Shi Xian was drooling with fruit candy in his mouth.
"Haha! He is still a little guy who knows how to take care of his brother. Okay, I promise you. You can take your brother to Shanhaiguan with you!" Li Xiao said with a smile.
"Commander is poaching our talents from Fujian." Zheng Zhilong looked at Shi Lang and smiled like he was worshiping Buddha.
"This kid will be a great general on the sea in the future."
"Really?" Zheng Zhilong looked at Shi Lang doubtfully, with a look of reluctance in his eyes.
