"It's mingling in the underworld."
"Stop interrupting! It's all the same! " Tao Ruoxiang snorted. "Qin Lang, perhaps I'm not a competent teacher, and I won't be a teacher very soon, but at least I'm still your teacher now, and I think you're a very talented student. I really don't wish for you to go astray!"
Tao Ruoxiang's words were sincere and well-intentioned. She knew that Qin Lang had many abilities, and she knew that Qin Lang's medical and martial arts attainments were all extraordinary. Thus, she hoped that Qin Lang's future would also be limitless, and not be "buried" on the road of the underworld. Tao Ruoxiang graduated from South China United University's School of Politics and Law, majoring in criminal investigation. She had studied too many cases of the underworld, and the outcome of every case was that the underworld leader was shot dead by the police, sentenced to death, or imprisoned for life. She knew that Qin Lang's methods were extraordinary, but in her opinion, no matter how powerful Qin Lang's methods were, after he walked the underworld,
At most, he would become an underworld tyrant. And in the country of Hua Xia, no matter how powerful, how powerful the underworld was, in front of the state, they were just ants.
In Hua Xia, no matter how powerful the underworld was, it was impossible to contend against the state.
Even if Qin Lang became the leader of a super underworld, his end would still be very tragic.
Tao Ruoxiang could practically foresee this.
"Teacher Tao, I'm not quibbling, but your understanding of the underworld is too one-sided. I have no choice but to popularize some knowledge about the underworld. Before popularizing the underworld knowledge, I must first correct your view — — that is, not all underworld people or underworld people are unjust. For example, the founding general of our Pingchuan Province's Ye family, he was a member of the underworld, and was once the leader of the underworld gang Wolong Hall. Later, he joined the revolution, and his identity changed from a member of the underworld to a general. In the past, Chiang Kai-shek had also been part of the Green Gang; even earlier, Zhu Yuanzhang was also a member of the underworld. No matter if you're a member of the underworld or a member of the pugilistic world, if you're a snake, you can only hide in the grass. If you're a dragon, you'll eventually soar to the sky. "
Qin Lang was indeed an eloquent person. These words made Tao Ruoxiang feel a little overwhelmed. She hesitated for a while before continuing, "The people you are talking about are extremely few. Think about it, there are so many gangsters in Pingchuan Province, but only one of them is the founding general. That's a one in a billion chance! I'm sure you've heard of the saying that a general's success is built on the bones of tens of thousands! "
"Hehe … That's right, the success of a general is built on the bones of thousands. However, I'm sure that I'm not one of those ten thousand bones. "Qin Lang smiled confidently.
Seeing Qin Lang like this, Tao Ruoxiang really wanted to punch Qin Lang's face that deserved a beating. However, she wasn't a violent teacher after all, so she could only reason with him. "Qin Lang, you know that I'm a criminal investigation graduate. I'm very familiar with the current underworld situation. I'll tell you this, in our country, although there are big and small underworld gangs, these gangs look impressive on the surface, but in reality, they're controlled by some local officials. To put it bluntly, many of the underworld gangs are just dogs raised by government officials. As the saying goes, once the cunning hare is killed, the hound is cooked. Once these underworld gangs lose their value, they'll quickly be sacrificed. Those seemingly impressive underworld leaders will instantly become prisoners. Qin Lang, don't tell me you want to become these people's dogs? "
"I, Qin Lang, am indomitable. How could I become someone's dog!" Qin Lang snorted. "Teacher Tao, I know you're thinking for my sake, that's why you're saying these heartfelt words to me. However, I've already told you before, I don't want to be a gang boss. I want to be an upper-class figure in Jianghu. A true upper-class figure in Jianghu isn't the dogs of government officials. Rather, it's something that happens to be released. It's completely different! "
"You can treat government officials as that, dogs? Do you think that's possible? "Tao Ruoxiang naturally wouldn't believe it.
"You have no choice but to believe it." Qin Lang said seriously. "I can give you examples."
"Examples? Alright, I want to hear your examples. Speak, give me a few examples. "
"For example, the Buddhist Sect. The Shaolin Temple under the banner of the Buddhist Sect. Do you know how many officials in the military and political system are directly or indirectly related to the Shaolin Temple? If the Shaolin Temple's situation isn't obvious enough, then the situation with the Tibetan Tantra is the most obvious. In a place like Tibet that is known as a pure land, do you know what kind of power is truly influencing this piece of land? Do you know why in the past dynasties, including now, even the highest officials of the country would ask about the conferment of the title of Living Buddha in Tibet? "
The power of Jianghu is respected by the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect. The example that Qin Lang gave is just the tip of the iceberg of the power of the Buddhist Sect. This is because the true influence of the Buddhist Sect has even surpassed the territory of Hua Xia. Of course, the same is true for Taoism. Their influence is definitely not limited to the whole of Hua Xia.
Perhaps some officials can treat the gangs as their dogs. If they want to use them, they can use them. If they have no value, they can just get rid of them. However, there is absolutely no official who can control the entire Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect. This is because such a colossus cannot be controlled by one or a few officials. On the contrary, there are many officials who have become 'believers' of the Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect and are willing to be used.
In fact, not only Hua Xia is like this, but other countries are also like this. Even the President of the United States, who is known as the most powerful person in the world, absolutely cannot turn the Pope of Christianity into his dog. This is because even in the United States, there are definitely more believers of Christianity than the supporters of the President. As for the Buddhist Sect, it goes without saying. Many countries in the entire Middle East are directly controlled by the Buddhist Sect.
Tao Ruoxiang is a smart person. Of course, she knows that what Qin Lang said is the truth. However, she used a tone of disbelief to ask Qin Lang, "Buddhist Sect and Taoist Sect naturally don't need to be mentioned. In our Hua Xia, China has a history of thousands of years. You are mixing them with the gangs of Jianghu. It doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"
