Li Qi, an old servant of Sima Mansion, carried a plate of refreshments, passed through the corridor, and arrived at the study. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Before the door is opened, smell the tea first.

The water of sencha is said to be just right at the end of one boiling and two boiling.

The water makes a sound like a fish spitting out beads.

Charcoal fire slightly smoked.

Sima Guang's frowning brows were slightly relieved by the ethereal fragrance of tea. He took a cup of tea made by Le Lin and took a sip without thinking.

The fragrance of the tea is mellow and sweet.

"An Guohou has a lot of research on the way of sencha. ”

Le Lin looked at the floating green leaves in her cup and asked, "Did Lord Sima agree to this plan?"

Sima Guang stopped flipping through the plan repeatedly, and hesitated slightly.

Half of the salary will be withheld, and the owner will subsidize another half of the cost and take it out when the employee needs to buy a farmhouse. Participation is voluntary, not mandatory.

The "fairness" he demanded is well reflected in this "Housing Accumulation Fund" program.

If you refuse, you will be unforgiving, and you will be too mean.

But he was always unwilling.

Le Lin saw through his thoughts: "Lord Sima is worried about whether it is 'fair' or not, and Mr. Wang also keeps advocating 'fairness'......" She looked out the window with her cheeks and teased: "You two are really the same thing, and you have the same goal." ”

Sima Guang's eyes suddenly became cold, and an uncontrollable unhappiness surged into his heart for no reason. He would rather "Le Lang" say that he is selfish, self-kind, or even insatiable, rather than compare his ideas with Wang Anshi's ideas.

"I thought that An Guohou was only unfamiliar with the scriptures, but I never thought that he had even learned idioms in a mess. ”

He tugged at the corners of his mouth and said sarcastically.

Le Lin raised her eyebrows and looked at him, and asked with a smile: "The junior said something wrong?"

Sima Guang was silent. Even if he disagreed, he did not want to criticize Wang Anshi behind him. Not a gentleman's doing.

Le Lin said to herself: "What you ask for is 'fair opportunity', and what Mr. Wang advocates is 'fair results'. ”

A flash of appreciation flashed in Sima Guang's eyes.

To be able to see the difference between these two propositions, this person has his own cleverness.

The younger generation thinks that these two ideas are indistinguishable and excellent. ”

"An Guohou and the mud's kung fu is also excellent. ”

Sima Guang replied coldly. Just now, his appreciation of "Le Lang" disappeared without a trace in an instant -- if "Le Lang" really had a wise root, he would definitely be able to figure out that his own ideas and Wang Anshi's ideas were fundamentally incompatible. If there is equality of opportunity, the results will never be equal, and to ensure equal results will inevitably hinder the fairness of opportunities.

Even Wang Anshi is here at the moment, and he must be scolding "him" fiercely.

When "he" says that both are excellent, he means that neither is good.

Sure enough, Le Lin said again: "After thinking about it, the younger generation feels that your ideas are all wrong, and the fairness of the opportunity and the fairness of the result are actually unfair. ”

"Humph!"

Sima Guang snorted coldly: "An Guohou said, in your opinion, how is 'fairness'?"

He asked, but he didn't expect "Le Lang" to answer something accomplished.

"The most appropriate idea should be to focus on fairness of opportunity and tilt towards fairness of results. ”

"Huh?"

Sima Guang was stunned.

These words, like a ray of bright sunshine, illuminated his mind, which had been dimmed by his hard work.

"The pursuit of equal opportunities will lead to the deterioration of the disadvantaged groups, and the gap between them and the dominant groups will become wider and wider in the long run," Lelin said. To a certain extent, it is 'Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road'. ”

"Hmm......"

Even though he insisted on advocating equal opportunities, Sima Guang could not deny this.

"It is also not feasible to adopt a completely fair approach to results, which will weaken the motivation of individuals to struggle, and worse, disadvantaged groups may be lazy because of the forced equality of results. ”

Sima Guang nodded heavily.

In this sense, there is an alternating relationship between equality and efficiency. ”

"Efficiency?"

"The ratio of output to input of labor. With the same input, the greater the output, the higher the efficiency. ”

Sima Guang drew inferences: "It is more efficient to hand over the same thing to a smart person to do than to a stupid person to do?"

"Exactly. The idea of the two of you is more like two different choices: either at the expense of efficiency in exchange for a greater degree of equality, or at the expense of equality in exchange for higher efficiency. ”

"Do you approve of the former or the latter?"

"Efficiency first, fairness at the forefront. ”

Outside the window, the dazzling rays of the sun penetrate into the study.

The right side of Lelin's face is illuminated.

Sima Guang looked at "him" in surprise.

After a long time, he agreed: "I have no objection to this plan. ”

"Thank you, Lord Sima, for making it complete. ”

"Wait," Sima Guang waved his hand and said, "Although I don't object, Wang Jiefu doesn't necessarily agree." ”

Le Lin nodded slightly, and said with a sly smile: "Since Lord Sima does not object, I don't think Mr. Wang will disagree. ”

……

Peony Pavilion.

In the venue surrounded by plum trees, the debate continued.

"Human nature is composed of nature and habits, 'hunger and desire for food, cold and warmth, labor and rest, profit and evil', this is human nature, it is innate, and habits are acquired through later human affection and education, which is acquired. Human nature is inherently evil, of course, referring to the inherently evil nature of human nature. Evil refers to the unbridled expansion of desires, while good refers to the moderation of instincts. Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms once said: 'I'd rather bear others than others bear me!' Isn't this the inherent evil of human nature? In the murder case that occurred in Bianjing a few days ago, wasn't the murderer who sought money and killed people inherently evil? Isn't the many evil deeds in this world and the many tragic things that have lost their conscience the result of human nature's inherent evil?

"Although human nature is inherently evil, the world has not become a hell like a Shura field because of human desires, and it is precisely because human nature can be transformed through acquired education, because the saints advocate promoting good and avoiding evil, so human nature can be improved in the direction of good. Only by facing up to this fact can we promote good and avoid evil, instead of confusing reality with ideals!"

Jiang Chang, the third debater on the opposing side, spoke impassionedly.

This is a time for free debate.

The audience was moved by his righteous and stern words, and the applause was thunderous.

However, Li Li, who was standing in the last row, shook her head again and again.

Qian Xuepeng asked him, "What's wrong with his speech?"

"There's a big problem. He has said so much, but if he only refutes that 'goodness is also a natural desire,' then this statement is not valid, and besides, it is even more comical that he says it so generously. ”

Sure enough, Su Shi, the first argument on the right side, immediately stood up and said loudly: "The opponent's defense friend said that people's evil is because people have desires, and said that this is human nature, then I am very puzzled, why people's desires must be evil?"

"I like poetry and songs, I love to read the poems of Li Taibai and Du Gongbu, I like Qu Yuan's poems, is this evil? Besides, people have instincts, people want to eat when they are hungry, I love to eat the barbecued pork buns of Babao Teahouse, can this be regarded as evil? I am tired from work and want to rest, is this evil?

The opponent also said that human nature can be cultivated, so the evil nature can be educated to be good, so why can human nature be educated to be good? A bird can fly, and it can fly as long as it learns to fly, so why do we need people to teach it? We are born as human beings, and even if the heavenly roc comes to educate us, we will not be able to fly, because we do not have the nature of flying! So, why can people be taught to do good? It is because we believe that there is a good nature in human nature. ”

Compared with Jiang Chang's exhilarating and high-spirited speech, Su Shi's tone was calm and relaxed, and he was smiling all the time, which was more convincing.

The three people on the opposing side were refuted for a while, and there was nothing they could do.

Qian Xuepeng sighed: "It seems that the victory or defeat has been decided. ”

Li Li said: "Not necessarily. ”
