This was originally a good thing, but Su Wanqing heard a hint of sadness in Li Jin's tone.
She asked with some confusion: "This is supposed to be a good thing, why do I feel that you are unhappy?"
Li Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, I'm not unhappy. I'm very happy to see the country that was riddled with holes a hundred years ago stand up again and stand on top of the world and look down upon all the heroes."
"I am proud and proud in my heart. I think the young prince and Prince Pan think the same way, but have you ever thought about it?"
"Now we still have our own value. Yanjing needs to use us as an edge to do many things."
"Once one day, the value we can provide is no longer needed, or if a substitute is found, it will inevitably be abandoned."
After listening to Li Jin's words, Su Wanqing fell silent.
Although Li Jin didn't say something clearly, Su Wanqing also understood what he meant.
She leaned her face against his strong chest, sighed softly and said, "Have you received some information from above and are you ready to take action next?"
After this period of experience in the business war, Su Wanqing is no longer the ignorant and ignorant girl she was before.
She also has her own keen sense of smell and opinions on many things.
Although Li Jin didn't want her to worry, he didn't want to hide this matter from Su Wanqing.
Li Jin doesn't like that kind of silly, sweet, ignorant woman.
So he told everything about the conversation he had with the old man last time.
"The old man said that China will not need so much capital and powerful people in the future, but now is an extraordinary period, and it still needs to rely on the power of families such as Xiao Wanghou and Pan Shizi."
"But have you ever thought about it, once Yanjing no longer needs them, the families of the young prince and Prince Pan will definitely be dealt with."
Su Wanqing was shocked after hearing this. She immediately sat up from the bed and looked at him in disbelief: "This...is this impossible?"
"What are the family backgrounds of Xiao Wang and Pan Shizi? Who can touch them casually?"
Li Jin leaned on the bed, glanced at her, and said unhurriedly: "Although their family's status seems to be rock solid, it seems that no one can move them at all."
"But since ancient times, there have been countless cases of the downfall of powerful people. During the Western Han Dynasty, the Huo Guang family was incomparable in the court for a while. Didn't they end up being executed by everyone in the family?"
"Hou Junji in the Tang Dynasty had great power, but in the end he was killed by a glass of poisonous wine?"
"Later, Lan Yu in the Ming Dynasty was even directly skinned and executed, and Wu Sangui in the Qing Dynasty was also whipped to death."
"Any one of these people who is not powerful for a while will end up miserable in the end."
"Not to mention the young prince and Pan Shizi, their families cannot be compared with these people."
As Li Jin finished speaking, Su Wanqing's expression became more solemn. She glanced at him again and asked, "So, are you worried that their ending may not be a good one in the future?"
Li Jin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If they and I only cooperated for profit, I would not feel anything about it at all."
"But during this period of getting along, some brotherhood was born. I don't want to see them eventually go down that path."
In fact, the reason why he suddenly remembered these things today was because he learned about it from the attitudes of the young queen, Prince Pan and others at the dinner party.
Their family is not satisfied with their current achievements and wants to reach a higher level.
In Li Jin's view, this was an extremely dangerous signal.
