Chapter 31: The Wealth of Nations

Bai Meng hummed lightly, waiting for what He Pet would say next.

"Don't be nervous, I told you a long time ago, I want to thank you for letting me see Lu Mingnian's true face, I don't treat him as a friend anymore! I mention this because you stepped on Lu Mingnian's hand and foot, and the famous doctor in the imperial capital Ducheng didn't believe that he stepped on it when he saw the injury! ”

Bai Meng was stunned for a moment, and then he thought of this, out of anger at that time, that is, Lu Mingnian said that he would abolish his hand, and the violence in his heart was stimulated by Hill's murder, and finally made Lu Mingnian dislocate all the bones on his palm!

Thinking about this, he forgot to speak for a while, and He Pet said again: "Bai Meng, do you remember?" I didn't understand it at the time, but after listening to what people said, I realized what an amazing kick it was! The human body is only two hundred and six bones, the palm of the hand accounts for fifty-four pieces, and there are twenty-seven pieces on one hand. ”

"He Shao praised ......"

"Bai Meng, don't be modest, I can tell Lu Mingnian not to talk about this to anyone, even his parents don't know that it is your black hand! Your unparalleled medical skills, treating the old man, are not easy to catch......" He Chong's hearty laughter was mixed with a hint of ruthlessness.

Bai Meng's cold sweat stayed unconsciously, and he remembered that he had made such a kick as if he was out of anger, which would naturally attract the attention of others during treatment!

There are twenty-seven bones in the hand, five metacarpal bones, fourteen phalanges, and eight small bones at the joints of the wrists.

His son was made like this, Lu Mingnian's parents may not be ruthless, He Pet concealed this matter for himself, which can be regarded as saving himself.

But he also pinched a handle of his own!

No wonder last time in the Internet café, He Pet was so polite to himself, it turned out that he was holding back such thoughts!

I'm still too impulsive, I'm not guilty, I'm guilty, and my medical skills have brought huge benefits to myself, but I have finally brought trouble to myself.

He Pet smiled: "Why didn't Bai Mengbai Divine Doctor speak?" I'll send a car to pick you up when you're free? ”

"I'll ...... in a moment No, why don't you do it tomorrow? Look at ...... "Bai Meng calculated in his heart that he had drunk alcohol today after all, and although the impact was small, it was faster than he usually reacted.

"Okay, then tomorrow, where will we see you then?" He pet is refreshing.

"At the entrance of the District People's Hospital." Bai Meng stood at the window, and as soon as the cool breeze blew, he calmed down.

He Pet said a few more greetings, hung up the phone, Bai Meng unconsciously pinched the phone, and his face was a little pale pondering the gains and losses of his recent actions.

Do you get carried away? Is it ostentatious and indulgent? Is it too exposed?

He found that he seemed to have made all his mistakes!

In the downtown area of Anguo, the pulse is diagnosed, the bar is in public to save people from life, and the intersection is a lesson to touch the porcelain scoundrel, every piece seems to be quite a big trouble.

He thought to himself, although he didn't have the feeling of being frightened when he just talked to He Pet on the phone, but he also understood that he was still too young to hide it.

He Pet's call is too timely!

If there is no such call, Bai Meng will not necessarily attract anyone's attention if he continues to make trouble like this, and what will the consequences be, he may be fine, but what about his mother? This world is not full of people like He Chong who salute first and then soldier, although this young master has some compulsion in it, but after all, he has a request for Bai Meng, and his words are polite, and when he mentions Lu Mingnian, it is also because he likes to take everything into his hands.

Bai Meng let out a long breath, and couldn't help but sigh at the difficulty of the world, read thick black and read history books, and combined with today's experience, he understood why the Chinese should be modest.

I don't know how long I thought about it, but after understanding the truth of clumsy, his waist straightened up again!

People should not swagger in the world, nor should they blindly give in and let people bully them!

He has no ability anymore, and his current medical skills are also known as unparalleled in the world, isn't it?

He took a light step, looked at the scenery outside the window, pulled a silent smile, and quietly clenched his fists.

When you don't have the ability and ability, you can show your wealth on the street, which is a swagger through the market, but if you have the ability and power, the world will go with me.

With this understanding, his apprehension about Yan Yaxiang's unclear future of the Nine Turns Jade Liquid today finally dissipated.

And his temperament is much calmer than before, and he has a clearer idea of what to do.

Go back to the borrowing room and pick it up and continue reading, no matter how foreign affairs change, your ability can't stop, and when you outperform everyone, what if you act recklessly?

Reading until the night, I didn't have much understanding, how rich the modern economic and financial enrichment is, Bai Meng is not in a hurry, to the library has closed, borrowed a book and went home to continue reading.

Under the lanterns, the young man who once felt that reading was useless finally understood that reading was the fastest shortcut for the poor to turn over.

The first thing he did when he got up the next day was to prepare Qin Xinyue with nine turns of jade liquid, and yesterday's bottle was smashed by Qin Chizhou, and Bai Meng had to remake a new one and take it to the hospital.

He had a copy of Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations in his hand, which he had read yesterday and was prepared to repeat later.

I didn't meet Qin Chizhou in the hospital today, only Qin Xinyue guarded the old man, handed the Nine Turns Jade Liquid to Qin Xinyue, watched her massage and apply to Qin Mansion, and pointed out and corrected her movements from time to time.

These days, Qin Xinyue has also become half of a massage master under Bai Meng's training, and she has learned all kinds of techniques, except that her finger power is not in place, the accuracy of her movements is not bad, and every word Bai Meng says is very attentive to learning.

"Your father...... What did you say later? Bai Meng saw that she had found the trick, smiled with satisfaction, and asked about what happened after he left.

Qin Xinyue's face showed a hint of worry: "Dad, he has returned to Beijing, after you said those words yesterday, he said that he did not support or oppose it, and let you rule at will, it is impossible to give you a penny." ”

Bai Meng shook his head: "I really don't want your money. ”

What he said was sincere, Qin Xinyue could also hear it, and sighed: "It's really strange that I can't help you, I trouble you to go to the hospital many times." ”

"Although I am not in the establishment, I am always a doctor, and I should run to the hospital." Bai Meng pulled a chair and sat down casually.

Now there was still some distance from the time he had agreed with He Chong, and he spread out the book and read half of it.

After Qin Xinyue's massage, when she saw Bai Meng reading, she couldn't help laughing: "You are reading again, you are working very hard." ”

The first time she and Bai Meng talked was when Bai Meng was reading at night in the corridor, and when she saw Bai Meng taking time to read again, she couldn't help but admire.

"It's very reasonable, and I think I'll use it in the future, so I read more." Bai Meng looked up and smiled, then withdrew his gaze.

Qin Xinyue quietly stepped forward, bent down to see what Bai Meng was reading from below, and said, "You, a doctor, don't read medical books, but you read economic monographs instead?" Is this going to be an official or starting a company? ”

"Maybe I'll make medicine." Bai Meng pointed to the Nine Turns Jade Liquid that Qin Xinyue had carefully collected.

Qin Xinyue smiled clearly: "That is really going to be the boss, but as a student of finance and economics, I have three suggestions for you." ”

"You studied finance?" Bai Meng heard of it for the first time, and only knew that she was a college student, and she never asked what major she was.

"I was a sophomore, and there was no one at home to take care of my grandfather, so I took a year off from school." Qin Xinyue glanced at her grandfather, then at Bai Meng, and said with a smile, "Do you want to listen to it?" ”

"Of course you have to listen, I think it's very interesting that this scholar is looking for the rules of value, the invisible hand." Bai Meng said sincerely.

Qin Xinyue looked at Bai Meng seriously and raised a finger: "First, you don't have to look at economics to make products, you can look at it later, the knowledge of politics and interpersonal management in the initial stage is more direct and effective; ”

She held up another finger: "Second, economics keeps pace with the times, and although it is the best way to start from the Wealth of Nations, it is also a long way, so you can not go this way; ”

The third finger was raised, snatched the book in Bai Meng's hand, and said, "Third, the version you read in your hand is not good." ”

Bai Meng thought it was interesting to see her appearance, and he also followed her example and put up a reply note.

"First, I want to see my self-learning ability, start with what I'm interested in, and see how long I can last."

"Second, since it is the best path, then I will go on and not be afraid to spend time."

Qin Xinyue heard that she rejected her two suggestions in a row, she was a little nervous and angry, and she wanted to stop talking, Bai Meng smiled and snatched back the book: "The third point is to accept it humbly, you can recommend a good version to you." ”

"I thought you wouldn't listen to any of them." Qin Xinyue laughed lightly, his father Qin Chizhou is the kind of man who admits death, and the things he recognizes will not change until the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and when he saw Bai Meng asking for advice from him, he spoke with great interest:

"The earliest translation of The Wealth of Nations was a 1902 translation by Mr. Yan Fu called The Original Wealth, which was an abridged translation, translated to introduce new ideas, and was written in classical Chinese, which is not suitable for reading now. What you have in your hand is the 1930 translation of Mr. Guo Dali and Mr. Wang Yanan, which is relatively smooth, but their translation is only for the translation of "Capital" and the preparation for the propaganda of Marxist political economy, and it still has a sense of the times and a taste of classical Chinese. ”

"If you have to read the Chinese version, the People's Daily Publishing House, Hu Changming's translation, is better." Qin Xinyue thought about it for a while, and finally said, "If you really want to learn thoroughly, you should still read the original English version, because if you want to start learning economics from "The Wealth of Nations", you must start from its development trajectory, and then you have to read a lot of books, to remove the essence and save the essence, and then combine it with the times to have a general understanding." ”

"My English is terrible......" Bai Meng couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this.

"I've said so much, of course I'm going to teach you a trick." Qin Xinyue smiled and groaned, like a weasel watching a chicken jump into a trap.

――――――――――――

ps: This comment on the words of the various translations is actually copied from the Internet, I also read the Chinese version of "The Wealth of Nations", I can't remember which version, anyway, it is more obscure and difficult to read, but it is still a small meaning, you can think about it.

The book is already someone else's knowledge spit out to you, the translation is to eat and spit it out again, and there is also the translator's own academic level, expression ability, if you have the ability and time and conditions, it is better to read some original versions.

The latest thing, also in English, is Chinese academic...... Looking at the busy construction of buildings, it is more pessimistic.

Of course, this paragraph is just an introduction to let the protagonist learn English well, and the protagonist has never gone to college, and he doesn't really want him to go there, because the biggest use of college is to teach a person a systematic learning method, which is still very easy to make up.
