Mu Zhu: Why advocate harmony?

Simei: Disharmony will tilt.

Mu Zhu: What is the result of tilting?

Simei: It depends on what aspect it refers to.

Mu Zhu: What I want to talk about is resources.

Simei: It is amazing that resources are tilted.

Mu Zhu: Why can’t you do it?

Yuxuan: This is not simple. I can’t stand it until I’m so hungry.

Mingyue: Both sides suffered losses and none of them benefited.

Mu Zhu: How do you say this?

Simei: It is hard to protect you from being rich and you will not be able to eat, drink, be arrogant, extravagant, and be lewd. This will not only harm the body, waste resources, and harm your reputation.

Yuxuan: None of the benefits can be obtained, isn’t it a big deal?

Mingyue: It’s not easy to live hungry, it’s always malnourished, and your psychology will be affected, so it’s hard to save you from accidents.

Mu Zhu: I really can’t be tilted, and I will suffer if I tilted. So what do you think about the school selection system?

Simei: Haven’t you seen it?

Mu Zhu: What did you see?

Simei: Some schools expand enrollment and absorb students, and the overall quality will decline, and their reputation will be affected. Some schools have lost their students or their source of students has decreased sharply. Is it another way to be able to die of being hungry?

Yuxuan: The system is really not a casual game, it requires a big vision and a big picture.

Mingyue: Do you think the world needs harmony?

Mu Zhu: Natural laws emphasize balance, and social progress is no different.

Simei: It’s really evil, we must talk about the law of balance.

Yuxuan: It is difficult to prevent the explosion if you are extremely eager and hateful. Weigh your desires and be calm and unbiased.
