Chapter 52: Delong Mo Wangshu
Delong Wangshu is from "The Book of the Later Han Dynasty: Cen Peng's Biography": People are not satisfied, both Pinglong, looking back at Shu, every soldier, the head and temples are white.
This is a letter written by Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, to the general Cen Peng. Among them, Long refers to the eastern part of GS, while Shu refers to the central and western part of SC.
The metaphor has already obtained Longxi, and still wants to capture Xishu, get an inch, and want to go one foot further, people are not greedy enough, and there is also the meaning of insatiable greed.
Today, I am writing the title as "Long Mo Wangshu", in fact, I am also discussing with you his meaning and the ultimate possible consequences.
The allusion to Long Wangshu first happened to Liu Xiu, and we know that the Eastern Han Dynasty was established by Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were two local forces that opposed Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, one was Gongsun Shu, who was in the land of Bashu, and the other was the hustle and bustle of Longxi.
Both of them have been operating on their own turf for many years, and of course it is impossible to completely submit to Liu Xiu in one sentence. Until the 32nd year of AD, the general Cen Peng followed Emperor Guangwu to occupy the Kui Huan of Longxi, and besieged the Kui Huan in the Western Regions, and later surrounded the reinforcements sent by Gongsun Shu.
But there was always a stalemate, and Emperor Guangwu saw that he couldn't break through the city for a while, so he left an edict for Cen Peng and went back to the capital himself.
Cen Peng received the edict and looked at it, which read: If you capture the two cities of Longdi, you can lead the army to attack Gongsun Shu of Shu.
People's hearts are always dissatisfied, and I am the same, I have already obtained the land of Long, and I hope to get the land of Shu. In the end, both Pinglong and Wangshu evolved into the idiom Longwangshu.
In real life, Delong Wangshu often brings unexpected consequences to himself. There are a few very real examples around me, A is a friend of mine who has known him for a long time, his family is very good, we have a good relationship, and we often study antiques and works together.
Until one time he asked me to borrow money, and since we were in the same city, I quickly delivered the cash to him.
Although he had tens of thousands of dollars, he lost all the money in less than an hour. Later, I heard that he had earned more than 20,000 yuan with only 100 yuan, but he always thought that luck had come, and in the end he not only lost back the money he won, but also lost all his business capital.
Many years later, we got together again, and A said with emotion: Although there are winners and losers in gambling, don't use happiness to bet on the probability of winning or losing.
I have a colleague whom I will call Colleague B for the time being. Due to the relationship of working in a different place, we spent a few years together often drinking tea and chatting.
Friends who watch the news should remember that in the first half of the year, the highest point of China's stock market reached more than 5,000 points, and I remember that at that time, most people in China bought stocks.
made hundreds of thousands of dollars with his so-called insider trading or stock review friends, and at the same time, he kept encouraging the people around him to dream of making a fortune with him.
The latter result is also clear to everyone, the stock market fell sharply, and finally the Shanghai Composite Index fell to more than 2,000 points.
The dream of making a fortune is broken, A recalled: stocks are gambling, if you don't restrain yourself to accept the good thing, the final result of Longwangshu will inevitably be bankrupt.
Tens of billions of bosses of SX are bankrupt in the stock market, not to mention that we, small shareholders and small retail investors, are really not enough to swallow elephants.
The above two small examples are often encountered in life, no matter what you do, you should follow the rules and be gradual and steady.
No one can predict the future, and the big picture will always be in the hands of a few people in a minute's time.
Don't be a man and do things, don't have to look forward to Shu and get an inch, because greedy ordinary people will always live the hardest.
