Chapter 894 Tram Problem

After lunch, Fu Chenhan left with something. Jiang Xiu was a little bored and wanted to go to Jiang Lian to play. However, as soon as he walked out of the room, he saw an uninvited guest.

It was a middle-aged man who looked polite, wearing a pair of gentle gold-rimmed glasses, and wearing a suit and ties. When he saw Jiang Xiu coming out, he smiled: "Ms. Jiang."

Jiang Xiu frowned.

She had seen this person and had been with Jiang Zi's side, as if she was Jiang Zi's assistant.

"My surname is Zhou, you can call me Assistant Zhou."

The man said: "Come here today, it's because the island owner has something to discuss with you."

Jiang Xiu used her toes to think that Jiang Zhi had done what Jiang Zhi had done to her, so she said coldly: "Don't go."

Assistant Zhou said, "The island owner said, if Miss Jiang is unwilling to go, I will tell you one more thing."

Jiang Xiu said, "What?"

Assistant Zhou smiled: "Several young masters and ladies from the Pan family in the Lan family are still in Tingzhou Bay."

"..." Jiang Xiu was angry and laughed: "Threatening me?"

"Just just remind you."

Jiang Xiu pinched his fingers and said coldly: "Lead the way."

Assistant Zhou nodded with a smile.

Jiang Zhi met Jiang Xiu in his room.

This is Jiang Xiu's first time here. The decorations in the house are not very luxurious. He just set up an ancient shelf with a lot of ornaments on it, including priceless and street stalls. I don't know what Jiang Zhi's hobby is.

He smiled and said, "Sit down."

Jiang Xiu sat down, Jiang Zhi poured her a cup of tea, and Jiang Xiu said, "If something happens to the Pan family and the Lan family here, I'm afraid the owner of Jiang Island will not be able to deal with it."

Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "The incident in Gelan Bay last time was a big deal. If any young master or lady wants to join in the fun, the artillery fire will not have eyes, and it will inevitably be injured by accident."

"..." Jiang Xiu said: "I finally understand why Mrs. Lin doesn't want you to find me."

"We shouldn't have been so separate."

Jiang Zhi said in a gentle voice, sounding like a father with a very good temper towards his daughter: "I am your father, you are my daughter, and we should be the closest people in the world.

"Jiang Xiu was unmoved and said, "I dare not get close to the Lord of Jiang Island in such a manner. Besides, my father is called Ding Lansheng."

Jiang Zhi paused for a moment before saying, "No matter how you deny it, I am your father, and more than 96% of our DNA are the same."

"His eyes became gentler: "Swishu, there were some misunderstandings about your mother and I back then. I didn't know your existence. She gave birth to you alone. It took me many years to know that I have a daughter."

"The misunderstanding between you and her is your relationship with her, and it has nothing to do with me."

Jiang Xiu said: "If you want to explain clearly, just tell her that I have no interest in the little bit of old sesame and bad rice between you."

"Okay," Jiang Zhi said helplessly: "Since you are so determined, let's talk about the serious matters."

"Ophia died on Aurora Island, and Meffithal III will not give up. After all, Opia is the crown prince. There are too many things involved. Once Meffithal III starts war on Aurora Island, other countries that are eyeing will definitely form an alliance with Country Y. If you want to get a share of the pie, Aurora Island will be very passive at that time."

He stood up, and a world map was hung on the wall behind him. He clicked on the location of Aurora Island and said, "Aurora Island is in such a position. If it weren't for its strong enough, it would have been divided up long ago. But no matter how powerful Aurora Island is, it would not be a rival to several alliance countries. Hugsw, do you understand what I mean?"

Jiang Xiu was unmoved: "That's your business."

"No."

Jiang Zhi said: "Whether the Aurora Island is suffering, it is all in your thoughts."

Jiang Xiu smiled: "My moral kidnapping me?

I won't eat this set, it will disappoint you."

Jiang Zhi shook his head: "No, I didn't lie to you. This is the embarrassing situation in Aurora Island now.

Swish, do you know the tram problem?"

Jiang Xiu said, "I know."

The tram problem is the stated ethical thought experiment proposed by Philippa Ford. If a madman tied five innocent people to the tram track, an out-of-control car drove towards them and would soon crush them, you could pull a tram and let the tram drive to another track, but that crazy love also tied a person on another track, will you pull the tram open at this time?

This problem has been trapped in mankind for many years.

It can be roughly divided into two factions. One side is moralism, which believes that the lives of five people are not more important than the lives of one person. When facing such a dilemma, you should not act.

On one hand, there is utilitarianism. They believe that five are greater than one, so the lives of five people are more important than one person's life. When a decision is necessary, they will sacrifice a few people to save the majority and choose to pull the pull rod.

Most people attack utilitarianism, believing that they ignore the value of human life.

Jiang Zhi said: "What is in front of me now is such a tram problem. There are two tracks, one is you and the other is my subject. Those who are in high positions can only be a utilitarian when facing the tram problem. I ignore your feelings, but this is the choice I have to make. If I were just an ordinary father, I could choose to save you selfishly, even if I was scolded by millions of people, but I am the owner of Aurora Island. Aurora Island has thousands of families and thousands of fathers and daughters. I stand in such a position, and I am destined to be a moralist. That will destroy my country. Do you understand?"

Jiang Xiu said: "After all, it's moral kidnapping."

Jiang Zhi said, "No, Xiuxiu, I'm not discussing with you, I'm just explaining the facts to you. I have agreed to Joshua's request. Three days later, you will hold a wedding with Joshua, on Aurora Island. During these three days, you will stay here obediently. I promise that the children of the Lan family and the Pan family will live a good life, but if you leave..." He paused and said, "You will lose your friends forever."

Jiang Xiu suddenly stood up: "Master Jiang Island!"

"I know you hate me."

Jiang Zhi said: "But if it is Jiang Lian on the track, I will do this. I'm sorry that I have never given you anything, but I ask you to pay so much for Aurora Island. If I have the chance, I will make up for you."

Jiang Xiu bit her lip: "I don't need your compensation."

Jiang Zhi smiled: "I don't need you to understand me."
