The strongest boss in the sky

Chapter 611 Tickets
The eunuchs and court ladies have already left the room, so there are only four people in the imperial study, Mo Chen.

Kong Zhongxiao looked calm, with a confident smile.This confidence does not come from the prestige of the Confucian family, but from the two top Confucian scholars next to him, their judgment of the situation, and their speculation about Mo Chen's purpose.

As the voice of the ancestor of the Kong family fell, the room was suddenly silent.

Mo Chen held a scroll of Spring and Autumn in his hand, glanced at the few people indifferently, and said casually: "You guys, what do you want?"

Several people were stunned for a moment, but quickly regained their composure.They looked at each other, Dong Zhongshu frowned slightly, and said: "An answer, an answer that only His Majesty may know."

The other two did not speak, and looked at Mo Chen quietly.They need an answer, an answer that may be very difficult to accept, and even absurd in the eyes of others.

These days, the Kong family has been searching for the root of the division of the Mo family, and at the same time looking for the hidden truth behind the apocalypse.In order to find the answer, they not only turned to Dong Zhongshu, the oldest Confucian antique, but even Wang Chong, a generation of eccentric Confucians who were not tolerated by Confucianism.

Speaking of Wang Chong, his reputation in Confucianism can be described as mixed.

He advocated that "heaven is natural and inaction", and believed that both heaven and earth are natural material entities without will, and the movement and change of everything in the universe and the generation of things are the result of natural inaction.At the same time, he put forward that "the sky cannot be born of man", thinking that the sky is nature, and man is also the product of nature, "people are things; things are also things", which cuts off the connection between heaven and man, which can be said to be fundamental. Denied Dong Zhongshu's theory of the interaction between heaven and man.

If that's the case, at most he is not tolerated by the Ram School and is disliked by those in power.However, as a Confucian student, Wang Chong wrote the shocking book "Lunheng", which criticized the thoughts and arguments of Confucius, Mencius and other sages.This alone made him the god of plague that the Confucians could not avoid.

If it weren't for the seriousness of the situation, the Kong family would definitely not seek Wang Chong's help.

With the help of Dong Zhongshu, the oldest Confucian antique, and Wang Chong, an incomparable genius, the Kong family finally found some clues from the fog of history and discovered the secret that the Great Jin had been hiding all along.

Penglai!

It should only exist in the legendary Penglai, maybe it does exist!

Although the matter of Penglai was very secretive, most of the people who knew about it were either dealt with by Mo Chen, or had already passed away.But as long as everything in the world exists, it must leave clues, not to mention such a huge project as Penglai.Even though Mo Chen erased most of the traces of Penglai's existence, there were still some subtle things that people couldn't ignore.

Every time Kong Zhongxiao thought of the excitement of finding Penglai from a few clues, and the joy and excitement of spying on Mo Chen's eyes.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy can win every battle, Kong Zhongxiao, who thinks he has seen through Mo Chen's purpose, has full confidence in getting what he wants from Mo Chen.

Mo Chen was silent for a moment, and said, "The answer is already in your hearts."

"Not enough, these answers are far from enough. We want to know His Majesty's purpose and what Penglai is!" Dong Zhongshu looked indifferently, and looked at Mo Chen without fear.Although his hair was already gray and his face was full of wrinkles, his voice was still sonorous and powerful.

For Dong Zhongshu and others, even if they can be sure that the end of the world really exists, it is still not enough to make them feel at ease.Because they really get too little information, and there are too many doubts that need to be answered.

For example, what exactly is Penglai, and what significance does it have for this end of the world.Since Mo Chen has already known about the existence of the end times, he knows what the end times will look like, and how he plans to deal with the end times.

"Penglai, an ark of life, is a magic weapon that can break away from this world. It consists of three large islands, Penglai, Fangzhang, and Yingzhou, which can allow 30 people to be self-sufficient on it." Mo Chen's voice was flat, but listening to other people In the ears of several people, it was no less than a thunderstorm.

Three islands that can break away from this world, a fairy island that can make 30 people self-sufficient!

Several people were dumbfounded, with shocked expressions on their faces.They finally understood Mo Chen's purpose, and among them, the ancestor of the Kong family understood the so-called goodwill at the beginning.

A ticket, a ticket to leave this world!
When Kong Zhongxiao thought of this, he couldn't help breathing fast, his pupils constricted and flashed a strange color.He didn't wait for Dong Zhongshu to speak, and hurriedly said: "Conditions, Your Majesty's conditions."

Although the Kong family had an unpleasant fight with Zhu Yuyan at the beginning, Kong Zhongxiao was confident enough to get the boat ticket from Mo Chen.Because Mo Chen needed the Kong family, he firmly believed in this, otherwise Zhu Yuyan would not have come to the Kong family with so-called goodwill.

The only thing that worried him was how many tickets the Kong family could get in exchange for from Mo Chen.

One hundred, or fifty?

No, one hundred cards is not enough for the Kong family.

Kong Zhongxiao stared at Mo Chen closely, thinking about how to negotiate in the future to get the maximum benefit.

Dong Zhongshu frowned, and cast a sidelong glance at Kong Zhongxiao who had spoken hastily, as if dissatisfied with his interruption, but then he fell silent again.They know very little about Penglai, and they have no specific information about the so-called end times. Under such circumstances, they have no qualifications to negotiate with Mo Chen.

"The Confucian family's collection, all the books. As well as the relics of the sages collected by the Confucian family, they gather the ancient relics that the ancient sages only know how to know and look good." Mo Chen pondered for a few seconds, and said slowly under the eager eyes of Kong Zhongxiao.

When Kong Zhongxiao heard this, he immediately smiled, and he was completely relieved.

Knowing Mo Chen's hole cards and requirements, he was not in a hurry.Negotiation? Naturally, it is called negotiation when there is back and forth, otherwise, wouldn't it be a mistake.Mo Chen wanted all the books of the Confucius family, as well as the antiquities related to the ancient sages, so there was no problem.

The price, as long as he can pay enough.

Two hundred places to leave this world doesn't seem like much, does it?
Kong Zhongxiao was planning in his mind, and slowly stretched out two fingers, saying: "Your Majesty's request is naturally no problem. But my Kong family needs it."

"This old man has a collection of [-] books, which can be given to His Majesty." Wang Chong said suddenly, interrupting Kong Zhongxiao's words, making him stand there with a stiff expression and stretching out two fingers.

What do you mean by this, even if you want a boat ticket, we have to tell you on a first-come, first-served basis.I'm discussing business here, what do you mean by suddenly intervening!

The ancestor of the Kong family hated him so much that he wished he could slap himself twice.I knew that this bastard is not a good thing to be deviant. Back then, I had to ask this bastard for help.

Damn it, this bastard intervened, the Kong family didn't know how much they would have to pay to get enough tickets.

The 30 quota seems to be a lot, but there are not many quotas that can fall on the head of the Kong family, right?As Kong Zhongxiao thought about it, his heart gradually became a little more uneasy.

Although after years of fighting, Dajin still has a population of about 30 million.And out of a population of 30 million, only [-] people can get a ticket to escape from this world. The one-in-a-thousand chance is enough to make most people despair.Not to mention, there are probably more than [-] people with royal blood, right?
Dong Zhongshu's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a look of deep thought.

When Mo Chen heard the words, he couldn't help but look at Wang Chong with a slight scrutiny in his eyes.

Wang Chong looked about fifty, his expression was indifferent, and his posture was aloof.He was dressed in a shabby gray linen suit and a pair of simple straw sandals on his feet.His long, gray hair was casually draped over his shoulders, making him look like an ordinary old man on the side of the road.

"What do you want?" Mo Chen said after pondering for a few seconds.

"I'm old, and I'm alone. I don't need anything. Instead of accompanying me, a bad old man, into the coffin, it's better to give all of these things to Your Majesty. It can also be considered as a contribution to my human race." Wang Chong's expression remained indifferent. , as if nothing in the world could shake his state of mind.

Hey!
After listening to the ancestor of the Kong family, he no longer had any demeanor to speak of.He couldn't help cursing in his heart, wishing he could tear Wang Chong's body to pieces.

Your uncle, don’t tell me you had an enmity with my Kong family in your previous life, and you just wrote a book about my Kong family’s ancestors, but now you still want to end our Kong family’s heir.

Where does your fucking free gift leave my Kong family?
Kong Zhongxiao looked embarrassed, the confidence on his face completely receded, and instead he became a little more anxious.Especially those two protruding fingers made him want to grab the ground with his head.

He didn't know what other conditions he could offer, and what kind of conditions he could use to impress Mo Chen.

Mo Chen frowned slightly, slightly surprised.He thought that Wang Chong wanted to exchange for the quota to leave, but he never expected that he would give it away for free, so he couldn't help asking: "You don't want to leave this world?"

"Will His Majesty leave?" Wang Chong asked with deep eyes.

Mo Chen remained silent, and tapped his fingers on the table twice, making a dull sound like knocking a wooden fish, and there was no sound for a long time.

At this moment, Dong Zhongshu suddenly said: "There are tens of thousands of books in the old man's house, there are also classics from hundreds of schools of thought in ancient times, and 320 volumes of bamboo slips written by several ancient sages. I wish to give them all to Your Majesty. The old man is not as chic as Zhong Ren , I want ten places to leave this world, and I hope His Majesty can make it happen."

"Yes." Mo Chen recovered from his contemplation, glanced at Dong Zhongshu who was a little nervous, and nodded slowly.Then he looked at the ancestor of the Kong family who was already in a daze with a confused face, and there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.If the Kong family cooperated honestly at the beginning, Mo Chen would naturally not mind giving them a few more places, but now.

The smile on his face became more and more gentle, and his voice was like a spring breeze: "I don't know how many places the Kong family needs."

Kong Zhongxiao's expression was stiff, and he glanced at the two fingers he had stretched out, always feeling the urge to dig his own eyes.

If it makes you blind, it's not good to ask someone for help, but to find these two white-eyed wolves, is it okay now?
