Chapter 18: Human Nature
Ye Xingguo walked out of the door of China Construction Bank, his face was relieved and excited, and his eyes were a little more aggressive. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Every day, Daheng, get in the car, let's go have a good meal." With a bank card with more than 100 million deposits in his pocket, Ye's father is also a little more atmospheric, and he has learned a lot with a nouveau riche attitude.
Although many people say that they hate the vulgarity, arrogance, lack of culture, and lack of quality of the nouveau riche, they give this type of person who suddenly made a windfall the title of an upstart to highlight that although they have no money, they are of high quality.
Of course, if you have the opportunity to become the same kind of person, I believe that few can stabilize it, and you can't eat grapes, saying that grapes are sour.
However, what they consider to be high quality is only a comparison of the wealth they have, not how much higher their quality is than that of the nouveau riche, but that the nouveau riche has much more money than them, but not much higher quality, and thus there is an imbalance.
Confucius said: "Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequality, and do not suffer from poverty but suffer from anxiety." ”
The reason why nouveau riche are called the word "outbreak" is because their sudden wealth comes from sudden income brought by national land acquisition or buying winning lottery tickets like the Ye family.
Of course, in this world, strength always speaks, and a person with 100 million cash will never have a deterrent effect from a large company with a net worth of hundreds of millions.
Winning the lottery is the most able to attract the prying eyes of others, and recently a group of gangs ready to grab windfalls have come near the lottery center. After all, a flat-headed ordinary man with a huge amount of money is the easiest to start, and it is all cash.
"Dad, let's go to the computer city to buy a computer after dinner, right?"
"Go, not only to buy a computer, but also to buy some good clothes, money is not saved, but earned by hard work."
"Only by using the money can it be considered as donating money to the people who should be donating, and only those who put in the effort are worthy of donation. And when we go to buy things, we pay those who have worked hard, and this is the best way to donate. In the end, Father Ye is unwilling to spend the money in the form of donations, or stick to a simple theorem of giving and waiting for income.
"Dad, what if those were born with a physical disability, or a car accident, or a serious illness. It's not that they don't work, they don't work, they just don't feel well. Ye Heng didn't understand the meaning, and reflexively retorted.
"Huh." Ye Xingguo smiled disdainfully, fortunately, he was in a good mood today, if he changed his usual time, he would have taught him a lesson earlier, he was very smart, right, I didn't see you usually take the first place in the exam.
However, since Father Ye can come up with this theory, he will naturally not leave this big hole and wait for him to fall.
That's simpler, although there is no absolute fairness between people, it is also relatively fair. Our ancestors have already given us the answer. ”
"Didn't the Buddha say that people have an afterlife, a past life? Their misfortune today must be that they were evil in their previous lives, murdering people and setting fires, so God has made them suffer bad luck in this life and made them suffer in this life for the rest of their lives. ”
"Therefore, the more pitiful the person, the more hateful he is, and if we help him, will we not help him to be abused? Isn't that the opposite of what we started from? And it's also against the will of God, to..."
When Ye's father talks about money, he really has a set of theories without dead ends, in a word, it is because this money is the fuel of his dream cruise, and he gave it to others, what should he do with himself, and what should his family do. There is never a shortage of people in need of help in the world, not in life, to do what you can, the ancestor of this set of theories is really not the superficial superstitious Buddha, but a simple teaching, the Buddha is just an excuse, never underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.
People are selfish, this is also human nature, but also the cornerstone of social development, without selfishness, it is difficult to imagine how chaotic society is. At that time, it will be a trivial matter for wives to share and have clothes to wear, and when the time comes, it will develop into eating a big pot of rice back then, seriously reducing productivity, and finally destroying the country and exterminating the species.
There is no good or bad selfishness, and many people call selfishness a derogatory term, just a shallow insight. Great wisdom is needed to look at selfishness.
"This..."Ye Heng was stunned.
Ye Tian also seems to understand.
"Let's go, you two see what good restaurants there are. After eating, go to the mall. ”
"Good..."
"Dad, which western restaurant should you go to, Texas Western food, there is no Western food in our town." Ye Heng was very surprised to see Texas Western food, not only because it was rare, but also because it looked very high-end, and it looked chic and elegant from the outside.
Although he is a big boss, eating Western food last time in 06 years is definitely something worth bragging about for a country baby.
"Texas Western food?" Father Ye stopped the car when he heard this, and looked out the window, a chic restaurant with a sign with both Chinese and English names hung on it.
"I haven't eaten it either, I can't eat it, you two will?" Father Ye was also entangled, curiosity made him want to go, but he was afraid of being embarrassed and losing the face of the Chinese, this is complex human nature.
"Every day, have you ever watched movies and TV shows scenes of eating Western food?" Ye Heng thought about it, yes, he hadn't watched much TV and movies about Western food, and he didn't have any impression, but he just vaguely felt that eating Western food was foreign and tall.
"I've seen it, you wait, I'll think about it." Ye Tian had never eaten such a thing as Western food in his previous life, although he had a girlfriend, but he thought about writing novels all day long, and he didn't have that mood.
However, isn't it just the common sense of Western food, and if you have a problem, find Du Niang.
"Du Niang, help me check the common sense about Western food, are you?" Ye Tian echoed Du Niang in his heart.
"Yes, host, please wait." Du Niang's sweet girl's voice echoed in Ye Tian's consciousness.
"There are five main varieties of breakfast, including fruit juices and fruits, dried fruits, egg dishes, bread, and after-dinner drinks. The main meal was cavior, foir gras (F), pickled whitebait (Anchovy)..."
Ye Tian was stunned, "What's the use of making a recipe, forget it, it's better to be reliable, isn't it just to order two steaks and ask for a bottle of red wine?" ”
"What's so difficult, if you have difficulties, you have to go up, anyway, I didn't bring my girlfriend this time, and no one recognized the three big men who were embarrassed." Ye Tian thought that he should practice now, and come with Su'er in the future to learn other people's interesting routines.
"Dad, let's go eat once, it's very simple, wait for me to order food, teach you how to eat." Ye Tian was calm on the surface, but decisive in his heart.
"Let's go, Dad, go." Ye Heng saw that his brother agreed, and he also voted in favor.
"Okay, let's go eat a foreigner's food and see the world." Father Ye is not the kind of person who has difficulty choosing, plus his wallet is swollen, what are he afraid of. (To be continued)
