Life at The Top novel Chapter 2082

“I believe that many people are happy to be able to do their bit and contribute to the revival of Somerland,” After Jasper said that, he could clearly see that there was a look of relief in the old man’s eyes.

The old man adjusted his posture on the chair, looked at him, and said, “If every successor in the future, as well as the thousands of compatriots in Somerland, think like you, that would be great.”

However, Jasper shook his head with a smile, and he said, “Actually, you know very well in your heart that this is almost impossible. Throughout the thousands of years of Somerland history, it’s common sense that dynasties will change and there will be rises and falls. No one can change that.”

In Jasper’s view, as long as the world was not unified, the ambition of the United States, the United Kingdom, and even the Sunrise Land in the east, to destroy Somerland would never die. At least for a long time in the future, Somerland would need to face this group of people with bad intentions. To sum this up in one sentence, the road to revival in Somerland was long and difficult.

The old man was so talented that he naturally understood what Jasper meant. Hence, he just smiled and said, “It‘s rare that you can understand this at such a young age, so let me ask you another question.”

“Please do.”

Jasper knew in his heart that the old man was finally about to get to the point.

“In the beginning, we turned the common people into masters, but after decades, those capitals began to try to turn themselves into landlords and masters to enslave the common people. If this goes on, one day, Somerland might repeat the tragedy of a hundred years ago! What do you think about this?”

The old man raised his head and stared at Jasper. A frightening light flashed in his eyes. The moment Jasper met the old man’s gaze, his heart throbbed. He suddenly had an ominous premonition, but this was also what he expected. He knew that with the old man’s mind and hands, this day would come sooner or later…

After a brief shock, Jasper quickly calmed down, swallowed, and said with a slight smile.

“Now there are more and more capitalists in Somerland and they have a very wide reach. Plus, they even want to meddle in the state affairs of Somerland. If they’re allowed to continue, Somerland will eventually follow in the footsteps of the United States and be run by a bunch of capitalists one day. At that time, everyone will only have money and interests in their hearts, and there will be no revival!”

The old man nodded from time to time while listening to his analysis.
