Even though Baldwin knew very well that women were not allowed to lose their minds in his line of work, and many of his loyal subordinates had reminded him not to rely on and trust Natasha too much, Baldwin still did not change.
The four precepts of life were wine, sex, avarice, and anger. There was a saying that in a dream of eighteen years, when one saw wine, sex, avarice, and anger, one was right and wrong, greed, anger, infatuation, and love, wind, frost, rain, and snow.
The Hua Xia people were very knowledgeable in this area, and Baldwin also had some understanding of Hua Xia. When he first felt the wisdom of Hua Xia, it was because of wine, sex, avarice, and anger.
As the saying went, the fragrance of wine seizes the will, sex overtakes the soul, money blinds the mind, and anger destroys the country.
Wine, sex, avarice, and anger were the four walls, and everyone was hiding inside. Whoever could jump out of the circle would live a long life even if they did not live a hundred years.
Because of this, Baldwin even felt very dispirited for a long time. He felt that his luck had run out, because wine, sex, avarice, and anger were all things that he could not control, and they were all his biggest flaws.
Fortunately, he later heard another saying, "A hero is not drunk when he drinks, and the highest is not lustful when he is not drunk. Ill-Gotten wealth is not to be taken, and anger will dissipate on its own."
Later on, Baldwin learned more about it. He heard that there was a great politician and reformer in Hua Xia in ancient times who had a different understanding of these four words. Only then did Baldwin regain his confidence. It was said that without wine, there would be no etiquette. Without sex, the road would be blocked and the people would be sparse. Without wealth, the people would not work hard, and without energy, there would be no vitality in the country.
Looking at it now, not to mention Hua Xia's wine culture, even in the whole world, wine had become a culture.
Drinking a glass of wine when talking with friends, drinking a glass of wine when there was something worth celebrating, drinking a glass of wine when watching football, drinking a glass of wine when contemplating, all of these were a culture. However, this was not drinking blindly. Drinking for wine was a kind of brainless behavior, and drinking for business was a taste.
Wine was a heart-wrenching poison.
And sex was a double-edged sword. For the whole world, the more developed the area, the more mature the industry in this area. Without this thing, it might not have been possible to attract more wealth and make the city more developed.
Although it was said that lust was a steel knife, it played an important role in any developed region. The whole world could see that the more developed a place was, the more rich people would be interested in such industries!
As for the King of Hell, Baldwin had always disagreed. Without wealth, there would be no pursuit. What was the purpose of life? Wasn't wealth? If wealth was the King of Hell, then why did people all over the world have to work to earn money?
Whether it was the upper class or the lower class, everyone had to make money every day! Without money, there was no way to live. This principle was very realistic.
Wealth does have its disadvantages. Those who have wealth and power are heroes. If one's life is short, one's efforts will be in vain. Back then, Shi Chong died because of his wealth, but Tong Shan didn't help Deng Tong.
However, after obtaining the three powers of the Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao, and Heavenly Dao, one would be born with great wealth and glory. Even if one teaches a virtuous and virtuous heart, it is difficult to practice virtue empty-handed. Those who are rich are respected, those who are not are despised everywhere. Don't fight and fight for leisure. If you ask for money, you must know that you have a life!
However, Baldwin agreed that anger was the root of disaster. The Tyrant committed suicide in the Wu River. The wise Zhou Yu did not live long. Many valiant generals in front of the army died because of their hard work. Therefore, his temper was much more controlled than when he was young.
Even if he was angry, he would digest and release it as soon as possible. And Natasha was his best helper. She could let him digest all his anger at the fastest speed. This was why Baldwin loved Natasha so much.
Of course, Natasha was the "lust" of wine, sex, wealth, and spirit for him. At least, in the eyes of many people, she was like this.
Lust is hard to leave and easily confused. Hiding in the boudoir, hiding the willow. Raising the ambition of a villain, destroying the virtue of a gentleman. The future ruler is talented. King Zhou has empty power. A knife that hurts without pain. Opposite a thief that kills. Only then do you know that your eyes are horizontal waves. Infinite virtuousness is drowned.
Lust is easy to confuse but hard to break. Hiding in the boudoir, hiding the willow. Stepping on the golden lotus, twisting the waist, tender face reflecting the peach blossom, fragrant skin glowing jade white. Charming appearance hates to provoke wild children. Sad mood leads to beautiful guests. Hibiscus in the tent is a phoenix. Where can the clouds and rain be found?
Someone said that everyone envies the mandarin ducks intertwining necks and looks at the flowers blooming. Ignorant flowers and birds fall in love. How can people not love? A gentleman wants to be a lady. A beauty is greedy for many talents. In the red gauze tent, the harmony between the two is priceless!
But the Wei Sheng Bridge trickles down. Xiishi of the Wu Kingdom is pitiful. Being greedy for flowers will eventually lead to misfortune. A good marriage is a bad one.
Women have always been called femme fatale. Baldwin had also asked himself many times whether Natasha was his femme fatale.
In the Hua Xia, there was a concubine of the last emperor of the Xia Dynasty. After marrying Jie, she indulged in sensual pleasures. Due to Jie's favoritism towards Yi Xi and his neglect of the imperial court, his Xia Dynasty was quickly destroyed by the small tribes.
This woman was really the number one woman in the history of Hua Xia and even in the history of the entire world. She was the number one vixen in all of history, the first empress to be destroyed in the history of Hua Xia, the first woman to be considered a female spy, the first woman to offer, the first woman to be a slut … and so on!
The Xia Dynasty wasn't the only one in Hua Xia that was destroyed because of a woman. Daji of the Shang Dynasty, Bao Si of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and Xiishi of the Spring and Autumn Period were all examples!
There were many women who could be called femme fatale. Lu Zhi of the Western Han Dynasty, Diao Chan of the Three Kingdoms Dynasty, Jia Nanfeng of the Jin Dynasty, Yang Yuhuan of the Tang Dynasty, Madame Ke of the Ming Dynasty … All of them were famous.
Baldwin was worried that if Natasha was his femme fatale, then his criminal empire might be destroyed in her hands.
Regarding this, all of Baldwin's subordinates were very worried. Some of them were already very worried. They were afraid that if they weren't careful, they would be implicated. Hence, many of them raised this issue to him many times.
This caused Baldwin to fly into a rage and directly kill one of his loyal subordinates.
Of course, Baldwin regretted this very much. However, what was done could not be undone. After Baldwin did it, there was no way to change it. He could only tell his subordinates that he could control a woman well! He could even control a criminal empire well. How could he not control a woman?
After this incident, Baldwin's subordinates no longer dared to give him any advice on this matter.
However, there were whispers behind his back, saying that Baldwin killed because of this woman's bewitchment. In any case, during that period of time, Natasha was the femme fatale in the eyes of everyone in Baldwin's criminal organization. No one had a good impression of her!
Fortunately, Natasha's tolerance was beyond everyone's imagination.
Natasha was not defeated by these people's rumors and slanders. She persisted in doing what she did and persisted in serving Baldwin. Natasha helped Baldwin make the right decisions many times. Over the years, she gradually gained the trust of others besides Baldwin.
Trust would never be given for free. It had to be earned through one's own efforts!
Natasha relied on herself to win Baldwin's greatest trust step by step.
Baldwin really trusted Natasha, but trust didn't mean that he would hand everything over to her without any worries. Baldwin would always remind himself when there was no one around that lust was a steel knife that could cut one's bones. He was a hero who asked himself not to mistake lust for lust!
Relying on this great wisdom from Hua Xia, Baldwin felt that he could control everything that he faced very well.
And all this great wisdom was something that Baldwin thought was particularly good in his heart.
Natasha finally arranged for a private jet to take off in two hours. There would be a stop midway to avoid other planes. By the time they arrived in New York, it would be the next day. Baldwin could rest on the plane for five hours.
Baldwin was very satisfied with Natasha's arrangement. In the next two hours, Natasha would not let him be idle. Natasha would make him feel as if he was floating in the air and ascending to the top of the clouds.
After everything was over and everything was calm, they could directly board the private jet to rest.
Although Baldwin also liked air quakes, air quakes came with risks. After all, people of his age were prone to diseases due to strenuous activities and agitation. Although medical rescue measures were prepared in the air, they were still far from being as advanced as those on the ground.
This was also the reason why Natasha would not give Baldwin passion during the flight.
