Let you be a great man, not a scumbag

The great grandfather stood beside the row of neatly cultivated fields, his face filled with pride and satisfaction.

He pointed forward and introduced enthusiastically: "Here, there are all kinds of fruits and vegetables planted! The weather is getting cooler, and other vegetables can't stand such a cold climate. Last month, it was okay. I could plant some cold-resistant crops such as spinach, turnips and coriander, but in December, the temperature dropped sharply at night, often dropping below zero degrees, so those delicate vegetables can't grow here."

"But it doesn't matter. We have a lot of fruits here. Look, there are zucchini and cucumbers over here, and red tomatoes and sweet melons over there. A little further away are bunches of lush beans..."

Jiang Cheng widened his eyes and looked at the vast vegetable garden in front of him.

I couldn't help but exclaim: "Grandpa, you actually grew all these vegetables by yourself?"

The great-grandfather nodded with a smile, patted his chest and said, "Yes, most of them were grown by me. Although I am 91 years old this year, I am still in good health. When I have nothing to do, I like to fiddle with these vegetables. The ones that I can't finish eating at home, I give them to other people." After saying that, the great-grandfather laughed heartily.

In the sunshine, the grandfather's simple and tough figure blended into the green vegetable garden. His appearance gave Jiang Cheng an illusion again.

If I hadn’t just seen him sitting in the reception room working.

Jiang Cheng would probably think that he was just a simple farmer.

Jiang Chenghong at the side said with emotion: "Oh, that's right. Recently, he has been dragging me here to work on the farm together. You know what, although he is a few years older than me, he is very good at farm work. I haven't worked on the farm for a long time, and I am a little tired."

Jiang Cheng listened and nodded repeatedly to show his agreement: "It's good to find something to do in your daily life. Fruits and vegetables are natural and can also exercise your body. But grandpa, why don't you retire at your age? I just saw you were still busy working."

When the great grandfather heard this, he couldn't help laughing at first, but in a flash, a hint of worry and helplessness appeared in his eyes.

Then he stretched out his hand, gently stroked Jiang Cheng's little head, and spoke earnestly.

"My dear grandson, it is not so easy to retire to the countryside and enjoy your old age. If I give up the power I hold tightly in my hands right now, my Jiang family will probably fall into a catastrophe that will shake the world immediately."

Jiang Chenghong then said: "Brother, you have worked hard."

I saw the grandfather just shook his head gently, with a hint of regret in his eyes.

He said slowly: "If Jianming can come back, then the two of us may really be able to retire in peace."

Although these conversations did not say anything explicitly, Jiang Cheng could sense a bloody atmosphere.

The transition of power is not as smooth as we ordinary people see.

Since ancient times, the change of power has meant breaking the old and establishing the new, and changing the world.

This kind of change is often accompanied by great pain and may even damage one's vitality.

By the same token, after a change of power, a new group of forces will inevitably be needed to support this new situation.

Just like the fights between underworld gangs, whenever a new boss comes to power, his younger brothers and core members of the gang will face a major change.

In the process of power transition, bloody conflicts are inevitable because the vested interests will never be willing to give up the power in their hands easily.

Doing so is bound to offend many people and trigger a series of open and covert struggles.

If you have no power after retirement, it is hard to guarantee that your family will not be retaliated against.

However, based on Jiang Cheng's understanding of his father.

Can he, who is used to freedom, really come back and face this kind of environment? ?

So far, Jiang Cheng has not been very interested in these things.

For the past eighteen years, he has been growing up in an ordinary family environment.

Jiang Cheng did not have too much ambition and desire for the struggle for power.

Even in his original ideas, he was just a complete egoist.

I just hope to live my life happily and freely.

If they could really reach their current position one day, they would probably have to face those troublesome issues every day, right?

Moreover, when making various decisions and trade-offs, it is indispensable to consider the issue from a global perspective.

The so-called pinnacle of power actually represents the pinnacle of responsibility.

Ask yourself whether you really have the same ideological awareness as them?

Jiang Cheng knew very well that with his current ability and realm, he was not able to do this.

The great grandfather looked at Jiang Cheng kindly and spoke softly.

"Come, my dear grandson, let grandpa take you around again and show you photos of your father when he was a child. Look, you two looked so much alike when you were little! It's a pity that he grew crooked when he grew up and is not as handsome as you."

If my father heard these words of fatherly love from my great grandfather, I'm afraid he would shout out loudly: "This is simply poisonous!!"

Jiang Chenghong, who was standing nearby, also agreed cheerfully, "Yes, you are right. Jiang Cheng has been handsome since he was a child. On my desk are photos of him from childhood to the present. Everyone who has seen these photos can't stop praising him."

Jiang Cheng knew that his second grandfather had placed his photo on his desk.

In fact, only a few people know that Jiang Cheng is the great-grandfather's grandson, but quite a few people know that he is Jiang Chenghong's grandson.

For example, when he was in Britain before, Joseph was one of them.

"Second Grandfather, no one should know the true background of Mingsheng Group, right?"

As soon as Jiang Cheng finished speaking, Jiang Chenghong nodded slightly to show his agreement: "Indeed, if you trace back to the origins of Mingsheng Group, it was actually founded by your grandfather. In 42, when I was only ten years old, your grandfather resolutely went to Kyoto to start a business and founded Mingsheng Group."

"At that time, my eldest brother did not choose to follow my father into business. Instead, he devoted himself to some unspeakable activities, and then he went to university for further studies. Since then, the burden of the family business has fallen on my shoulders."
