Da Chengzi made tea, held the teacup, and handed it to Fang Monan and the fat man one by one, and the stone stood up and took the teacup from the evil emperor to rob his relatives: cold and special concubine. Da Chengzi took a sip, his hand kept rubbing the rim of the cup, and said leisurely, "I'm not afraid of stone jokes, I'm also a person, looking at the numbers rising on the bank account, my heart is a little fluttery, I feel that the money is too easy, a little forgetful, I feel that I can do it." ”

"Dad!" The stone grabbed Daseiko's hand worriedly.

"The nouveau riche mentality." Fang Monan took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Nannan is right, the mentality of the nouveau riche, everything looks at the money. Now having money means having everything, full of warmth and lust, and beginning to covet enjoyment, not enterprising, the pursuit of a comfortable and comfortable life, although the material life is relatively rich, but the spiritual life is unacceptable. Daseiko patted the stone's hand, "I'm fine now, very good!" Da Chengzi continued, "Making kung fu tea is a peaceful state of mind, and making kung fu tea is often quite time-consuming, but after a series of processes, I gradually feel that in fact, kung fu tea brewing is a state of mind, a kind of tranquility, a kind of serenity, and it is also a method of self-cultivation." He paused and said, "It's more about the knowledge you brought to me, it's better to be low-key." ”

"Speaking of the nouveau riche mentality, I used to have it." The fat man touched his nose, not embarrassed at all. "I feel that I have some money and is very capable, just like I am much more noble than others, this state of mind is naturally unnatural and trembling, often empty-eyed, no one in my eyes, I feel that Lao Tzu is the first in the world, and there is a feeling of giving up who I am. Be a man, forget your arrogance, and dare to compete with everyone. Who's afraid of whom! He glanced at Fang Monan meaningfully, compared to others, he couldn't shake, and his restless heart was extinguished all of a sudden, and he wanted to thank her and Liang Zi. It was they who made themselves clearly see how many pounds and taels they weighed, and put themselves in the right position.

Fang Monan looked at the fat man with a deep meaning, and she understood very well why he was like this. In fact, the most important thing is to look at their own mentality, there is really very little help that others can give, but seeing them adjust so well, Fang Monan is also happy for them.

Although we have a long history of 5,000 years of civilization, it is difficult to form a relatively permanent social community. Therefore. In the ancient land of China, the family history was far less developed than that of Western Europe, the rich and the poor, the noble and the low, and the elegant and vulgar were still changing, and the self-sufficiency and closed conservatism of the society made the Chinese aristocratic consciousness lacking. Rather, it's more of a "nouveau riche" consciousness. Fang Menan continued, "A real aristocratic family must have a long-term and stable foundation in time and space, have superior characteristics such as deep roots, liberal arts independence, and inclusiveness, and have good performance in terms of political status, economic conditions, and cultural literacy. Western Europe's long aristocratic tradition has made its wealthy people more elegant. Most of its cultural celebrities come from noble gates. This is still unheard of in China. There may be some, but they are thin compared to Western Europe. The Confucian family of Qufu "Wensheng" is a continuous descendant, but it is a pity that it can only be maintained, and the scenery is difficult to regain. ”

"How can we have nobles! It is also natural that such aristocratic families could not survive, because the landlords had already been "swept away" during the revolution. These people were so frightened that they wished that their ancestors had leaned on the poor peasants for eight generations. The fat man scoffed.

Daseiko and Stone nodded. "And so it is."

Fang Monan put down the teacup and spread his hands, "So! The aristocracy is difficult to achieve, and the "nouveau riche" is full of historical stages and today's society. All the "nouveau riche" are just because of some opportunity, and they are in a certain area for a short period of time. Having accumulated a lot of capital in a certain aspect, he is proud and unstoppable. This can be analyzed from three aspects: politics, economics, and culture. She paused for a moment and continued, "Politically speaking, the Chinese Qiankun changes frequently, and the rulers seem to be up and down. It is difficult to form an aristocratic system in the sub-context. Liu Bang, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhu Yuanzhang...... All of them came from humble backgrounds. Kangxi and Qianlong's vassal elegance also made a lot of poems, but at best they were "limerick poems". Southern Tang Dynasty Houzhong, the main Li Jing, Li Yu father and son. Poetry and songs can be endowed with everything, but they have lost the country because of this, and they can't start and finish well. ”

"Economically ......"

"Economically, I'll talk about it." The fat man looked at Fang Monan and saw her nodding, so he said: "Economically, like us, the level of education is not high, and some are even second-rate and gangsters on the street, and they suddenly became rich. This "nouveau riche" mentality is more fully expressed, and in history, so many people relied on businessmen to make a fortune, or relied on officials to make a fortune; They are rich but not noble, because they are rich and uneducated, only copper smell, is the most typical "nouveau riche", many "time-honored brands" in the capital and other provinces, in addition to the world-renowned products, have not seen any outstanding people and huge families. ”

Fang Monan bowed slightly, and frowned again, "The most terrifying thing is the cultural nouveau riche, and this performance is the worst." Whether there is aristocratic characteristics depends on the cultural literacy. In ancient times, the imperial examination system was implemented, and many scholars were born in poor families, and once they were inscribed on the gold list, they were officials in the court and ranked among the upper class. "The spring breeze is proud", they rarely have a family history, most of them are just blindly rote memorization, how can they have real talent and real learning, where can they see great achievements? Of course, there are also people who can be good at poetry and writing, versatile, or have achievements in some aspects to become truly literate people, and they write articles in a colorful and lively style. However, due to the fear of "literary prison", they are often cautious and have restrictions on their career development, so it is difficult to form an aristocratic group. ”

"Isn't it advocating freedom of speech now?" Stone said.

"Hah! Ha! Fang Monan sneered.

Da Chengzi patted the stone on the head, "Listen more, remember more, watch more, and talk less." Memorize these eight words wherever you are. ”

The fat man smiled and changed the topic, "Looking back at history, whether we or Western countries, has the rise of that big country ever had this nouveau riche mentality?" This is true of human nature, and so is the weakness of human beings. It's normal, but it requires self-regulation and self-restraint. ”

Look at the first people who got rich not the so-called intellectuals, bureaucrats and businessmen, but those poor people who have no place to live, or no way out. Reform and opening up is a good era, as long as you have the courage, the policy loopholes are enough for you to play tricks and make money.

The coast relies on smuggling, the small border towns rely on courage, and the big cities with strict management need to rely on the doorway. Smuggling is not just about drugs, guns, and other iconic things that are reported on TV endlessly, but the ones who can really catch this line are those who have enough background and even simply give up their lives.

Smuggling furs, smuggling metals, smuggling household appliances, smuggling mouths, especially in the north, you can exchange a bag of flour for a bag of copper, a few high-grade leather clothes, or a beautiful foreign girl. Of course, if you really don't understand her, you can sell it to someone else. At the most rampant, you can see that on the border of the small town, there are people blatantly bribing the border guards every day, resisting bags of daily food in exchange for goods that get rich. This should be a true portrayal of the Sino-Soviet border. However, this is at best a small fight, and the big ones who play are much more ferocious. Fishing boats on the high seas, trucks on national highways, and all the tools that could be used were pulled out.

After the limelight of opening up passed, the state made great efforts to rectify, and most people withdrew their hands, washed and bleached, and made great efforts to plan for the rest of their lives. And those who realize that they are red after realizing that they have missed the opportunity and can only fight with their lives, but it seems that the end is miserable!

Although the fat man and Da Chengzi did not start from the black, but if the money comes too easily, people are prone to make mistakes.

"We remind ourselves all the time, don't your tail!" Da Chengzi looked at Fang Mo Nandao.

"See what I'm doing? It is the result of your own efforts. Fang Monan waved his hand.

"Doesn't the boss often say that there are four basic principles of life: '1. Learn to choose, 2. Know how to give up, 3. Endure loneliness, and 4. Withstand temptation.'" Only by adhering to the four basic principles can you succeed in life. I remind myself a lot. ”

"Speaking of choices." Dachengzi said, "A person's choice of living environment, choice of lifestyle, choice of quality of life, choice of work attitude, choice of life in the world, are closely linked with a person's outlook on life, values, world view, inseparable, it can be said that life, food, clothing, housing and transportation are inseparable from the choice, choice throughout the whole process of life, life everywhere has choices, choice determines the life trajectory and glorious course of life." Therefore, learning to choose, life is half the battle. ”

Fang Monan gave a thumbs up, "Uncle Cousin is good at learning!" ”

Da Chengzi scratched his head, a little bit of an axe. Shi continued, "My father also reads a lot in his spare time, and although he is very busy, he still finds time to read. At first, he didn't know some words, and he even had to ask me to explain the meaning of the words to him! He looked at Da Chengzi with emotion and said, "Seriously, I admire it, I don't know a lot of big characters, I can read a lot of books, and I really ...... to say such a truth."

"The truth is very shallow, this is just some life insights! Your grandfather's great truths are also a string of things. Da Chengzi said casually. The mediocre man is defeated by laziness, and the capable man is defeated by the proud world, and the two kinds of people must fail miserably, one is the lazy person and the other is the proud person. The former wants to do everything again "tomorrow", but the result is always nothing; The latter looks down on everyone in the world, thinks he is the smartest, and often attracts the resentment and resentment of others, so he is often slandered, cursed, and finally swallowed up by malicious slander.
