Chapter 535: Lu Zhi’s little thoughts and utilitarianism!
Not to mention other things, even doctors, generalists, novelists and other people from various schools gathered here. As the saying goes, people come and go in the world, all for the sake of profit. Although this is true, if you want everyone to work together, there must be enough attractive benefits!
But now that these people have come together, there are obviously more appropriate ways to gain benefits, but they have chosen a method that is very likely to cause Gao Yao's disgust and resistance to pursue greater benefits. No matter from which angle you look at it, this matter is weird.
"Since the various families have united to establish the academy, and are acting on the orders of Master Gao, what else have these people done besides this?"
Gao Yao, full of doubts, turned around and continued to question Yu Shu.
Yu Shu thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "As far as I know, I haven't found anything too unusual. Generally speaking, these people are quite law-abiding, and I have never heard of any disciples causing any trouble in the southern border. But..."
At this point, Yu Shu paused for a moment, then continued, "They did recruit a large number of disciples."
"Recruiting disciples? Quite a few?"
Hearing this, Gao Yao couldn't help but frown. He thought to himself, is it just recruiting disciples? Is there any unknown conspiracy or purpose behind it?
"Well, I understand. So, besides this, are there any other important matters? By the way, what is the current situation of the Chamber of Commerce? Is there anything wrong with Lu Zhi?" At this time, Gao Yao, who had been focusing on other matters, finally brought the topic to the Chamber of Commerce. Yu Shu, who was standing aside, hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to report the general situation of the Chamber of Commerce to Gao Yao truthfully. She described every link and key point in an orderly manner without missing anything.
Gao Yao listened quietly, and could not help but feel a little surprised. He knew that Yu Shu was always good at handling details, but she was not very good at business and account management, and could even be said to know nothing about it. But at this moment, Yu Shu could speak so neatly and clearly, as if she had already been familiar with these businesses.
This obviously does not conform to common sense. It is definitely not a skill that can be mastered overnight. Instead, it is more like a skill that has been carefully memorized in advance. In this mansion, there is probably no one else who can teach Yu Shu and make her reach this level except Lu Zhi.
Thinking of this, Gao Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Yu Shu thoughtfully, and asked slowly: "Is this what Lu Zhi taught you?"
Yu Shu heard this, her body trembled, a little panic appeared on her face, she quickly lowered her head and replied softly: "My husband is wise, this is indeed my sister's teaching. My sister is also worried that my husband will be angry about this, so I beg my husband not to blame my sister."
Hearing Gao Yao's direct question, Yu Shu felt a little nervous, but she knew that she couldn't hide anything in front of Gao Yao, so she decided to tell the truth honestly.
"You are so naive! You have been with Lu Zhi for so long, can't you see that she is just trying to use you to convey her feelings to me? And you are so willing to help Lu Zhi pass on the message."
With Gao Yao's keen insight and years of experience, how could he not see the clues? It's just that Gao Yao didn't want to care too much about these trivial matters. However, what he didn't expect was that Yu Shu would take the initiative to speak for Lu Zhi.
Yu Shu opened her red lips and said slowly, "My husband, I know this very well. I know very well that Lü Zhi is much more important to you than I am. Although my sister is more concerned, it is undeniable that whether it is managing the housework and handling various complicated affairs, or socializing with people and helping you deal with many situations, Lü Zhi can do it with ease. It can be said that she is a true virtuous wife to you. I only hope that you are well. As for whether she can manage the affairs of the backyard, it is really irrelevant to me."
At this time, Yu Shu also took the opportunity to express her feelings directly, and Gao Yao was very satisfied after hearing it. He caressed Yu Shu's hands lovingly, which was also a kind of comfort.
"Well, don't think about this anymore! Just do what you have to do, and don't worry about the other things. I have to say that Lu Zhi is really capable. Whether it's handling internal affairs or socializing with people, she can handle it with ease."
"However, her utilitarianism is too prominent, which is a big problem! Because of this, I didn't let her continue as she pleases. It can be regarded as a small warning and warning to her. If she keeps such a strong utilitarianism, it will definitely not be good for her future development. After all, if people always can't let go of fame, wealth and other external things, how can they really take on more important responsibilities and obligations?"
Gao Yao said this directly, which was his overall evaluation of Lu Zhi. To be honest, Lu Zhi stayed by Gao Yao's side from beginning to end in this life. At the beginning, Gao Yao was full of hope that such an experience would change many things.
Facts have proved that some deep-rooted essential things are not so easy to change. For example, the strong ambition and lofty aspirations deep in Lu Zhi's heart, in other words, she was never willing to be content with the existing situation, always wanting to pursue more and higher status and power.
This kind of personality trait is sometimes good. For example, when the power is expanding rapidly, Lu Zhi can definitely become a powerful driving force and provide great help. But if the situation begins to stagnate or even regress, it will be difficult to deal with. Lu Zhi may begin to want to have more say.
Of course, this approach cannot be simply judged as wrong. After all, everyone has some pursuits and goals in life. However, Gao Yao did not want Lu Zhi's ambition to expand too much. Because once her desires get out of control, it is very likely to cause a series of difficult situations in the future.
Take the incident with Lu Gong for example. It was undoubtedly a naked and extremely effective warning and warning. Since then, Lu Zhi has indeed become much more honest. Even now that she has taken over the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce again, she has always maintained a conscientious attitude. Whether dealing with merits or punishing faults, she can be fair and impartial without favoritism.
