Chapter 786
Brothers Ye Hanrui and Ye Hanhao were naturally very displeased with this kind of investigation. Two people who had never experienced any hardships and couldn't bear even a little suffering, wouldn't it be torture for them to go to the army. Besides, Ye Hanxuan has always been in the army, and there is no doubt that Ye Hanxuan's military skills are better than theirs, so this kind of investigation method is a bit biased.
The old man doesn't care about these, the reason why the two of them are like today is because they think about so many things left by their ancestors all day long, so they don't need to struggle, they just need to enjoy. If it goes on like this, the Ye family will really be inferior to the next generation. The old man doesn't want to see Ye Qian's descendants are all so worthless, and they are all prodigal sons.
"Bullshit!" The old man scolded sharply, "Among the grandchildren of the Ye family, you two are the least promising. You just know how to have fun all day long. You say, just like this, how dare I hand over the Ye family to you Although this investigation is a bit unfair to you, it is just an investigation. You can also take this opportunity to take a good look at the outside world and let you exercise. This is beneficial to you. Yes. No need to say any more, I have already decided that you will go to the Nanjing Military Region to report in a few days, and I will greet you there. Don’t expect to use your family relationship to give you any convenience, everything must be Start from scratch."
Brothers Ye Hanrui and Ye Hanhao were a little reluctant and opened their mouths to speak, but Ye Zhengxiong hurriedly gave them a wink. The two of them can't change what the old man has decided. Instead of letting them behave in such a cowardly manner, it's better to agree readily, at least to leave a little impression on the old man. As for the future, Ye Zhengxiong will think of another way.
Seeing Ye Zhengxiong's wink, the two brothers closed their mouths and didn't speak any more, but they still felt a little resentful in their hearts, and the eyes they looked at Ye Qian and Ye Hanxuan were full of strong resentment. Ye Qian and Ye Hanxuan just looked at each other and smiled, and didn't say much.
In fact, Ye Zhengxiong knew very well that Ye Hanxuan had no intention of being the head of the Ye family, so he was not a threat to his two sons at all. He and Ye Zhengfeng are brothers, so he knows his brother's personality very well. In this regard, even if Ye Hanxuan intends to fight for the position of Patriarch, Ye Zhengfeng may not be able to help him, and he may back down behind his back. However, Ye Qian was different, he was able to receive his own move head-on, but only suffered this little injury, which is considered remarkable among the younger generation. Such a character is naturally a great threat to his son, what's more, behind Ye Qian is Tang Shuyan's entire Tang Sect in Central Shu. If Ye Qian wants to fight for it, he will be the most powerful opponent .
The ancestor worship ceremony ended quickly, and those birthday guests all left the Ye family yesterday. As soon as the ancestor worship ceremony was over, the children of the Ye family also started contacting for air tickets one after another, preparing to go back. The children of the collateral line were not qualified to participate in the election of the head of the family at all.
The old man took Ye Qian to his room very affectionately. He hadn't had a good chat with Ye Qian yet. Whether as a grandfather or as the highest elder of the Ye family, the old man must have a good chat with Ye Qian. Check out his thoughts. Ye Qian resisted a little, and he didn't know why, when he first saw the old man, he felt very affectionate, but now he seemed to feel a little alienated, perhaps, Ye Qian felt too much pressure from the old man.
"Xiaoqian, our grandpa and grandson haven't had a good chat yet. Grandpa wants to chat with you, can you?" The old man said, "Don't feel too restrained, it's just a casual chat as a family. I checked you and know what kind of leader of the Spike mercenary you are, right?"
Although Ye Qian had heard the meaning from the old man's words when he was in the hospital, but there were too many people around at that time, so it was inconvenient for Ye Qian to say more about the old man. Now, when the old man brought up the old matter again, Ye Qian inevitably felt a little uncomfortable, and said in a flat tone: "You sent someone to investigate me?"
The old man couldn't help but paused, and then said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm doing this for your own good, I just want to know how you've been living outside these years. I've inquired about it, and the Spike mercenaries are indeed very important in the world. It is also a first-class mercenary group. Grandpa is very pleased that you can create such an organization alone..."
"It's not my credit, it's all due to the concerted efforts of my brothers to achieve today's achievements." Before the old man finished speaking, Ye Qian interrupted him.
The old man's face was a little displeased. He hated being interrupted when he was talking, but the other party was his grandson, who had been missing for more than 20 years, and he felt very guilty. Pressure on the heart. "Although your Wolf Fang's power is good, it's just for us ancient warriors. It's just a child playing house games. Besides, it's a matter of holding your head, which is too dangerous. Although the Ye family is not a big The family has a history of more than a thousand years in China, and its influence spreads all over China. Over the years, I have been worrying about who should be the head of the Ye family, and who should be in the hands. It can lead the Ye family to a more brilliant tomorrow." The old man said.
"Grandpa, tell me something you don't like to hear." Ye Qian said, "The development of the Ye family has been finalized. If you want to have further development, you must implement reforms and implement the law of survival of the fittest. Otherwise, the Ye family will only take one step forward. down step by step."
"How do you say that?" the old man asked with some doubts.
"The reason is actually very simple. Who are the real backbone of the Ye family? Not the direct descendants who are the leaders, but those collateral disciples who are at the forefront of the battle. They pay more than the direct descendants, but get more than the direct descendants There are far fewer children. Under such circumstances, their refugees will complain, but it has not yet reached the peak of an explosion. Once that time comes, the Ye family is bound to set off a big storm. At that time, it will be a blessing No one can predict the disaster. It is said that grandpa is the first person in the Ye family to pioneer and innovate. It is the grandfather who led the Ye family out of a thousand-year-old feudal family and took a step towards modernization. If this is the case, then Why bother to stick to the distinction between direct line and collateral line?" Ye Qian said slowly, "If there are only two choices in front of you now, one is to hand over the Ye family to the descendants of the direct line, but in the future Ye The family will definitely be dilapidated; the second is to hand over the Ye family to the descendants of the collateral, and the Ye family will be even more brilliant. Which one will you choose? This is a modern society, and human rights are important, and no one is willing to live forever. Being enslaved by others, I think grandpa should know this better than me? Therefore, I think that if the Ye family wants to develop further, they must implement reforms and adopt the natural law of survival of the fittest."
The old man's brows could not help but slightly frowned. If it was the past, when he heard Ye Qian's words, the old man's first reaction would definitely be to scold Ye Qian severely. However, since seeing Ye Hanlin defeat Ye Hanrui in the martial arts competition, the old man has also made careful consideration. "Go on!" The old man's tone was very calm, and his expression was very serious.
"Because of the lack of competitiveness, this will cause the direct descendants of the Ye family to lose the pressure and threats in their hearts. Once people have no pressure, they will also lose motivation, become lazy, and become unwilling to make progress. Ye Hanrui and Ye Hanhao The two brothers are an example, because among the direct descendants, they don't have any competitors, and even the only qualified Ye Hanxuan has no intention of competing for the position of Patriarch, which will inevitably make them a little impetuous." Ye Qian said , "Grandpa, you are a person who has traveled more bridges than I have traveled. I believe you can see many things more thoroughly than I do. I believe you must be very clear about Uncle's thoughts. If one day in the future, the head of the Ye family If it weren't for the two brothers Ye Hanrui and Ye Hanhao, I'm afraid there will be another storm. If you are here, old man, maybe nothing big will happen, but if one day you are a hundred years old, no one in the Ye family can live in shock. Uncle, no one can predict what the Ye family will look like at that time. What I said may be a bit serious, but it is the truth."
After a pause, Ye Qian continued: "Actually, the position of the Patriarch of the Ye family is not very attractive to me, if it's not because I don't want to disappoint my brothers who were born and died, if it's not because I carry too many responsibilities , the leader of Langya, I have quit a long time ago. Grandpa, you may think that Langya is just a mercenary, which is nothing, but you have to know that a single Langya is enough to stagnate the economy of a country , or even regress. This is a modern society. Although individual combat ability is very important, what is more important is a cooperation. How can we cooperate? Naturally, the whole family needs to work together. However, in the current situation of the Ye family, only I'm afraid there is no way to do this. This is also the reason why I don't want to be the head of the Ye family, because if I become the head of the family, I may lose this family relationship, which is something I don't want to see."
The old man frowned tightly, and kept thinking about what Ye Qian said in his mind. He also had to admit that Ye Qian's words had their own truth to a large extent. However, it is not an easy task to change these suddenly.
