Yes, Li He had never said such humiliating words in front of them, and he had never said such words of disbanding in public.
Of course, logically speaking, Li He shouldn't have said such words before the meal started. At least, he should have said it after everyone had eaten and drunk their fill. However, he had thought it through. He was used to being kind to these people every day. His tolerance and magnanimity were often seen as having no standpoint, and they thought he was easy to talk to.
Moreover, many people had learned from him, and they had learned 30% to 40% of his laziness. He felt that this couldn't go on. He could be lazy, but his subordinates couldn't. They were still young, and they had greater potential to be stimulated. They still needed to work harder to learn and learn.
These people were born at the bottom like him, and their parents were also like his parents. It was very likely that they weren't smarter than him. The so-called summary of experience and life wisdom that their parents taught them might be ridiculously wrong.
Moreover, these people had almost no experience from books. They had all left school early to explore the society. They could only think of ways to broaden their horizons and gain experience in society.
If they didn't have the knowledge and experience of rebirth like Li He, and were just as lazy as Li He, what could they learn?
What couldn't they learn? They could only be slowly eliminated!
Therefore, Li He didn't want to talk to them peacefully anymore. He had to stimulate everyone, make them stronger, and constantly strive for self-improvement!
Earlier, Li He wanted to give them a sense of security and not give them pressure. However, he now realized that if they continued to stay in their comfort zone, they would be destroyed sooner or later. Because, no matter how strong a person was, they would lose their wolf nature in a docile environment!
He harshly criticized them, but in fact, it gave them a real sense of security. Because he forced them to be strong, he forced them to grow, and because of this, they had a future!
If Li He continued to be so gentle to them, he would lower his goals, lower his requirements, and lower his standards to raise a group of little sheep, old foxes, and little white rabbits. This was the biggest irresponsibility to their future!
Of course, on the other hand, only when they became strong, could Li He have people in his hands. He could completely let them be a boss who didn't have to do anything, and he could be a winner in life on the road of eating and waiting for death!
Of course, on the other hand, Li He would only be able to have people in his hands if they were successful. That way, he would be able to feel at ease and be able to be a winner in life while he waited for his death to come.
If his harsh words made these people feel disgusted and disgusted, or felt that he had lost face, Li He would feel that his many years of sincerity and kindness had been fed to ingrates, and there was no need for him to stay any longer.
Li He's words were like a heavy hammer pounding on everyone's heart, abruptly jolting them out of their narcissistic life, an unyielding obsession that even they themselves did not know why.
They might have more or less thought about leaving Li He's place, and they also had the ambition to be their own boss.
Su Ming was in charge of the tape factory. He basically had the final say, but on the surface, he still followed Li He's lead. In private, he also had his own teahouse with Erbiao, which could be considered a unique business.
Pinsong had already opened two coffeehouses, and everyone respected him as Boss Ping or Brother Ping.
Although Skinny Monkey had always been in the north, he had also tidied up his wife and opened a clothing store.
Even Little Wei had her own billiard room and became a small boss.
They were all carrying Li He's rice bowls, and at the same time, they were doing their own small businesses and making their own small calculations.
Let them leave Li He?
Quit?
They firmly rejected the idea in their hearts. Not only would they have to bear the name of being ungrateful, but they would also lose Li He's trust. Without Li He's support, they could only fight on a small scale. They agreed with Li He's words. If they did not improve, they would be eliminated sooner or later.
They also believed in Li He's mantra that choice was more important than hard work. They could only firmly choose Li He.
Su Ming said, "Brother, I admit my mistake. Don't be angry. I'll still say what I said eight years ago, I'll follow you to the end."
Shou Shan also said, "I'm already a bag of old bones, where else can I go?"
Fu Xia chuckled as she replied, "There's no need to mention me. Without you, I'm nothing."
"Needless to say, I've already sold myself," Li Aijun said with a chuckle.
Erbiao and Skinny Monkey stood up and raised their cups. Erbiao said, "Brother, this cup is self-punishment. Don't be angry. I knew that without you, I, Fu Biao, am nothing. I'm just a fly on a horse's spoon. Who knows, I might even be a hoodlum who can't be seen in public. I'm sure that I'm sleeping in the lower bunk of an eight-person room in the circle. Ever since I followed you, I've become a rich man in Mentougou. "
There were many coal mines in Mentougou, and the boss of the coal mines was also a rich man in any dynasty.
Everyone looked at Li He's expression and didn't dare to laugh at Erbiao's humorous words.
Skinny Monkey also said, "I'm the same as him. My ponytail is like tofu, and I can't lift it up."
The others expressed their loyalty one after another. Xiaowei and the others swore on their ancestors.
"I'm telling you all this because you're all adults. Xiaowei is already 18, and you're not kids anymore. You have to understand that it's natural selection and survival of the fittest, especially in a country like ours with a population of 1.1 billion. We don't lack smart people, people who can endure hardships, and people who have courage. If you don't improve, you'll be eliminated." No matter what logic Li He told them, they wouldn't understand this logic if their minds hadn't reached this level or were close to it, or if they had experienced some things.
Perhaps they thought they understood this logic, but they actually didn't.
Only after Li He had been reborn did he understand that the tide of the great era had arrived.
Everyone was ambitious, and everyone was moving towards wealth. No matter how many things there were, they were always in a hurry. The world revolved, and time pressed. Ten thousand years was too long.
Li He continued, "After the New Year, there will be all kinds of exhibitions in the International Exhibition Center. You guys have to find a way to sneak in and take a look. In March, there will be an International Machine Tool and General Machinery Exhibition. In June, there will be an Italian Packaging and Food Processing Machinery Exhibition. Oh, right, there will also be an International Clothing Machinery Exhibition in May. You guys can go together and take a look. Go and see the level of the international industry, where is the difference between us, and see what a big business is.
He had participated in this year's book exhibition, and after going there once, he didn't want to go again. There was a sea of people, and it was difficult to even turn around.
He didn't expect them to see anything at the exhibition, but he just wanted to broaden their horizons.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little relaxed, Shou Shan smiled and said, "Let's eat. Since you're in my territory, don't be polite."
Seeing that everyone was still standing, Li He smiled and said, "Sit down. What I said just now was to tell everyone that the world is like this. If you're a wolf, you should train your teeth, and if you're a sheep, you should train your legs."
When everyone saw that Li He had returned to normal with a smile, they heaved a sigh of relief. They had never seen Li He so angry before.
The atmosphere at the table gradually became lively, and everyone started to propose toasts to Li He. Li He didn't refuse any of them.
When they were about done drinking, Li He said, "Believe me, as long as everyone is willing to work hard, this era belongs to us."
After the banquet ended, Zhou Ping quickly arranged for people to remove the table and brewed a pot of tea in front of everyone.
Li He saw that the hairy kid wanted to walk up to him but didn't dare to. He found it a little funny, so he waved for him to come over and asked, "What's up?"
"Something." The hairy kid's face was also flushed, and he drank quite a lot of wine with Little Wei and the others.
When Li He saw that the hairy kid was shivering, he asked Zhou Ping to find some old clothes for him, and Zhou Ping found a Shou Shan jacket for him.
"I … I …" The hairy kid finished adjusting the clothes, but he didn't know how to speak when he saw that there were people around him.
"Let's find a tea room to talk." Li He brought him to a tea room next door and pointed at a chair. "Sit down and talk."
The hairy kid said, "Boss, I can't do it."
