If we can deal with these respectable people in the front row, this gathering of people to cause trouble will be enough.

The people who came angrily to plead for the people looked at each other in confusion. They all followed the leader to see if they could get a piece of the pie.

But now that all the leading figures have been taken care of by Qin Zhongtang, what can these blind followers do? Are they going to be cannon fodder?

So at the outermost edge of the crowd, people slowly began to disperse quietly.

Although the people in the front row were embarrassed to leave now, they were obviously in a low mood and had no energy to worry about it.

Qin Dewei proudly asked Chen Feng: "The game is over, are you convinced?"

Chen Feng still said stubbornly: "The main reason is that your luck is so good! And I don't know why, your luck has always been so good!"

Magistrate Shen suddenly felt a little envious of Chen Feng. Being able to speak harshly in front of Qin Zhongtang was a qualification after all. Why didn't he have a fellow concubine like Qin Dewei?

Qin Dewei had nothing else to do today, so he asked patiently: "Tell me, where did I get lucky?"

Chen Feng replied: "You happen to know the information about their elders, so you can manipulate them and make them scrupulous and not dare to continue to cause trouble.

If you change the place, it probably won't work. Isn't this luck?"

Qin Dewei replied: "Before arriving at a place, you must first understand the place. Before I arrived in Ningbo, I already knew that there are four major families in Ningbo.

Now that I already know the existence of the four major families, I will naturally pay attention to everything about the four major families in advance.

One of the important tasks is to collect materials about senior officials of local big families. Wouldn’t that be used today?

Even if you become an official in another place, it will be the same, and you will still need to make targeted preparations.

So what you think is luck is just a superficial phenomenon. In fact, there are countless careful preparations and precise calculations behind it!"

Chen Feng felt as if he was being despised, and said angrily: "I just named a few randomly, and they are all members of the four most famous families!

They all happen to be within the scope of the materials you collected, and you still say it's not just luck? What can you do if I name another unknown person?"

Qin Dewei couldn't help laughing, "I asked you to choose someone, don't you think about it, why do I dare to let you choose someone?"

Chen Feng's brain was finally overloaded and he couldn't understand Qin Zhongtang's thoughts.

Qin Dewei explained: "In the past few decades, each of the four major families has been able to produce one or two Jinshi in each generation. As we all know, the foundation for Jinshi is to recruit people.

If we extrapolate further, the total number of people in the four major families, if not dozens, would be at least one or twenty!

[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here.]

If we continue to deduce it further, the basis for the selection of talents is the scholar. With ten or twenty candidates, there can always be dozens of talents in each generation, right?

This number of people is already considerable! So I can predict that whenever local scholars gather to make trouble, the four major families will inevitably take the lead!

If the scholars from the four major families did not stand in the front row and take the lead, the local scholars would definitely not be able to cause trouble!

That’s why I put forward conditions for you to choose people from the front row! No matter what, the people you choose must be from the four major families!"

Chen Feng: "..."

So what seems like chance is actually inevitable?

As Qin Zhongtang said, what you think is luck is behind countless careful preparations and precise calculations!

Qin Dewei seems to have been very lucky along the way, but what is the huge amount of preparation and calculation behind it?

Is the gap between myself and Qin Dewei so big?
