Chapter 288: The Theory of the Three Goodness
Although the knot in my heart has not been untied, I talked to Li Dali for a while, but my heart was not so panicked. Instead of arguing with him, he asked, "If such a kingdom is a heaven built by the true God, would you be willing to go there?" ”。
"Then will they still spit on the young master?" Li Dali is very concerned about this.
"No!" ,
Li Dali lowered his head and thought deeply. Li Chengji didn't urge him, pacing back and forth. The originally depressed thoughts unconsciously became a little brighter. seems to have found some catharsis unconsciously.
But when he thought about it, he couldn't find where the opening was hidden. It's like a dam that stores water, knowing that the bottom of it has burst, but you can't find the damage.
"The subordinates are unwilling!", Li Dali suddenly spoke, interrupting Li Chengji's thoughts.
Li Chengji's footsteps stopped, quite surprised. Because he saw that Li Dali pondered for so long, he was obviously moved. But in the end, this is the answer.
Then he stared into his eyes and asked, "Why not?" ”。
"The subordinates follow the young master, and they are already worry-free. And the young master has lofty ambitions, and he will not treat his subordinates badly. Li said pleadingly.
"You're --- content!" , Li Chengji was a little dumbfounded by Li Dali's words, so he was stunned for a while before he spit out such a sentence.
Seeing this, Li Dali continued: "The country that the young master saw in his dream is just a dream after all. And his subordinates follow the young master, but they really don't have to worry about food and clothing. And 'the murderer pays for his life, and the thief is punished,' and the people have clothes and food, isn't that the reality of the governor's palace? ”。
Although under the rule of the Khorasan Governor's Palace, it was not a true Datong society. However, compared with the surrounding countries such as the Western Qarakhanid State and Khorezm, the lives of the common people have indeed changed greatly.
Although in this, the Governor's Palace paid a considerable price.
For example, grain, which was closely related to the people, was centrally controlled by the Governor's Office. It is not that private sales are not allowed, but only grain is allowed to be brought in from outside, and grain is not allowed to be sent out. At the same time, the Li family trading house under the governor's palace also sold grain on a large scale.
Under the circumstances of the expansion of supply and the wanton price reduction of the Li family's firm, the grain in the governor's palace was three to fifty percent lower than that in other places.
For example, in Hezhongfu, which drinks the same river water as Puhua, the grain is more than 50% of Puhua's.
In this regard, Li Chengji is still not satisfied. Selfishly thinking about centralized procurement of grain and unified pricing. Although it is not a hard price, there will be a reasonable room for floating.
However, this will hinder the interests of many grain merchants and affect their support for the Governor's Palace of Khorasan. Therefore, so far, Li Chengji has not dared to put this matter on the agenda.
Listening to Li Dali's words at the moment, he also understands Li Dali's pragmatic choice.
In my heart, I also have some kind of enlightenment!
That's the matter of principle that I have always been thinking about!
Since the times are different, the principles that we abide by must also be changed. Because the world of the past can't go back in the end. It is no longer half useful to abide by the rules of the original world.
one's own good and evil cannot be judged by the code of conduct of the original era. Whether you accept it or not, you must accept it and adapt to it.
Li Dali stood at the bottom, and saw that Li Chengji's eyes were obviously more bright. Knowing that Li Chengji should have figured out something, he spoke up again: "Young master, I don't know how others look at people who are good. But in my Li Dali's view, good people have upper, middle and lower levels.
Those who do good deeds and do good deeds with good hearts are neither popular nor beneficial to themselves, and are called foolish.
Among them, they do good deeds and do their best to win people's hearts, but they are not beneficial to themselves, and they are called small kindnesses.
The next one, doing good deeds and doing good deeds, both winning the hearts of the people and benefiting themselves, is called great good.
And the young master, the benevolent government is extensive, and the people enjoy its blessings. Therefore it is a great good to win the hearts of the people, and to be exhausted by the Apologists. ”。
With these words, Li Chengji immediately refreshed his understanding of Li Dali. I was very curious: "You have entered the teacher's door?" ”。
Li Dali hurriedly scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, and said with a straight smile: "The young master is used to making fun of his subordinates!" I, Li Dali, am a reckless man, how can I worship my teacher. It's just fortunate that the young master loves him and listens to the young master's drive. ”。
"What do you mean?" , Li Chengji still doesn't believe that Li Dali can realize this. Because in his opinion, although Li Dali is clever. But in the end, I didn't go to school, and I can't recite poetry. This crepe crepe can't be realized by himself at all.
"Hey, hey, hey... I know that I can't hide it from the young master. This is my land in Mongolia, and I have heard it from Jereahai. ”。
"Jeruahai?" , Li Chengji has seen him. can be literate and martial, and it is reasonable to say such a thing. But in his heart, he still had some doubts.
Li Dali didn't spare the bend anymore, and continued: "I heard that this Yelu Ahai was also found from a mouth. Then he told him in detail how he heard this.
After Yuan Lai went to Mongolia to open the Li family's trading house, he made friends with various nobles in Mongolia according to Li Chengji's instructions. And in the form of buying and co-opting, get closer to them. At the same time, from their mouths, they heard a lot of confidential Mongolian news.
These three good theories were obtained by Yelu Ahai when he went to Dajin to persuade the Khitan tribe driven by the Jurchens to take refuge in the Mongol Khan, and talked with the Taoist chief Bingzhu Chang in a place called Laoshan Mountain.
At this moment, he listened to Li Chengji's thoughts and felt that the theory of the three virtues was the most appropriate. I said it, which is considered to be the right time.
"That person is called Qiu Chuji?" After listening to this, Li Chengji asked with some determination.
"How does the young master know the name of that person?" , Li Dali glared and said in surprise.
Hearing this, Li Chengji secretly sighed, celebrities are indeed celebrities. This is thousands of miles away, and the words of the mound can be transmitted here. Even among them, there are a lot of accidents. But this also proves that Qiu Chuji is indeed very famous.
Otherwise, why would Jereahai come to visit?
Did he know that Mongolia did a lot of 'work behind enemy lines' in the land ruled by Dajin. Although it is not as subtle as the Division, the effect is very gratifying. Like the Khitan tribes in the border now, they have secretly been at odds with the Mongols.
Now chewing on the three goodness theories of Qiu Chuji, after thinking deeply, it really makes sense.
Because goodness is relative! In everyone's mind, there is their own definition. However, the theory of the three virtues aptly points out that everyone's common cognition of goodness.
Below, doing good is thankless. Although I feel that I have done a good deed, I do not get any recognition. Whoever is one of them will gain fame, but it will not do him any good. This kind of goodness cannot last long, and the recipients are limited, and it is a small goodness after all.
Only the above one, self-interest and the other, are also the longest. The beneficiaries are also the most.
Think back to what you did. Although many people lost their lives with tricks, they made the surviving people live better. With the expansion of the Guardian Army, more people have enjoyed the benefits of the Governor's Palace.
This kind of goodness can indeed be called a great good.
