Pretend!
And it's the kind of pretense that wants to destroy humanity!
If standing here can be considered a sorrow, then let me bear it!
This is what the guests in the audience are saying.
But more incomprehensible, no one could understand the sadness that Li Qi said, so they all looked at Li Qi curiously.
Li Qi smiled slightly and said, "Please don't look at me like this, I don't feel sad for myself, but for you, and I feel sad for tens of millions of people in the Great Song Dynasty." β
As soon as these words came out, whispers immediately sounded below.
Li Qi ignored these whispers, and said to himself: "I believe everyone here knows that I am a chef, if you want to talk about cooking, no matter how high you put me, this is not an exaggeration, I am fully qualified, but other aspects of talent, I am afraid that I am not as good as most of the people here, what is not forgotten, what seven steps into poetry, what export into chapters, basically have nothing to do with me, I have not read the Four Books and Five Classics, I don't know what the way of a gentleman, my writing is not even as good as Gao Yanei, if from the perspective of a reader, I can say that there is no one in the hundred, why is it that I am such a person, who can let you who are full of wealth, talented, and rich in learning, and scholars sit down below and listen to my speech, don't you feel sad? β
Speaking of the latter, his tone was very impulsive, as if there was a sense of anger and indisputability.
Even if Li Qi gave Cai Jing a preventive injection in advance, Cai Jing was still surprised when he heard it, and secretly thought, what kind of neurosis this kid is, and no one has provoked him now?
Gao Yu turned his head and whispered, "Master, this is not a surprise. Rather, it was frightened. β
Cai Jingdao: "The old man also thinks so, it seems that this is the purpose of this meeting, and the front is just a pretense." β
Although some of them are businessmen, most of them are officials, and they are all scholars. Li Qi's words can be said to offend them.
A bachelor of extraordinary status couldn't help but speak: "Privy Envoy, we are here to give you face, and please respect yourself." β
"Self-respect?"
Li Qi laughed and said, "I am already very self-respecting, otherwise I am afraid that you will not be able to raise your head in the future." Chen Dong. β
Chen Dong was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't know what the privy envoy has to teach?" β
Li Qi said: "Let me ask you, what are you studying for?" β
Chen Dong was neither humble nor arrogant: "Chen Dong naturally studied to serve the court and ask for his life for the people. β
Li Qi said: "Then can I understand that you study to benefit the people?" β
Chen Dong said: "That's right. β
"And what do you think is a useful person?"
"Nature is the one who can contribute to the country."
"Excellent! Very well said! Li Qi smiled: "Then compared to you and me, who do you think has made a greater contribution to this country?" β
Chen Dong said: "Of course, it is the privy council that makes you." β
"Leave aside the new law and anti-Kim and other political matters. What do you think? β
Chen Dong thought for a while and said truthfully: "It's still the privy councillor who makes you." β
"Of course it's me." Li Qi said: "I won't say anything else, just say that the canned food, it can keep a piece of meat and a piece of green vegetables for one to two years, whether it is for people's livelihood or the military, it has played a heavy role." It also made a lot of money for my Great Song Dynasty, as well as firearms, fireplaces, Great Song Times Weekly, and charitable foundations, and they all benefited a lot of people, even so, but if you let me go to the scientific examination, I can tell SΓΉer and others very very sure, I must be the last, this sounds very contradictory, but it seems to be reasonable. Because these have nothing to do with the scientific examination, if it is a scientific examination of cooking skills, I think I can also glorify my ancestors. β
There was another person at the bottom, and said: "The privy envoy is a genius of heaven, and we all know this." β
That being said. But there was a sense of sarcasm in the voice.
Li Qi shook his head and said: "No, no, no, it's not me but a genius, I believe that there are many people in this world who are smarter than me, but these things are destined to have nothing to do with scholars, this is a tradition of our Han people." It is said that this recent rise of movable type printing is said to be nothing more than a cloth cloth, that is, an ordinary person. What's even more outrageous is to say that the gunpowder, the creator of this gunpowder is said to be just a group of alchemist Taoists, but their gunpowder has defeated today's invincible Jin soldiers, I dare to say so, if there is no gunpowder, you must not be able to sit here unharmed.
Besides, the creator of the glass is just a chef, and those new weapons are a half-old child and a craftsman who may not know a few words. Seriously, I wonder why these great scholars are always missing out on those who are full of wealth. I don't know if you can give me this answer. β
Zheng Yi, Chen Dong and the others gradually fell into deep thought when they heard this. However, some people did not think so, and one said: "We study for the sake of governing the country and the country, not to learn those strange and clever tricks, and this must not be generalized." β
Qin Hui couldn't help but scold in his heart when he heard this, this stupid pig, didn't you give him a chance to borrow the question.
"Good! It's a strange trick, a good way to govern the country and the country, it's really good to say. Li Qi said, the words changed, and said: "Don't say that you don't have any merits, even if you have, if I can double the yield of an acre of land, or if I know a weapon that can kill a hundred people at once, it is much more useful than the so-called governance of the country in your mouth, what is governing the country?" What is Ampang? Do you know what these four words mean? The people live and work in peace and contentment, and the Quartet submits, this is governing the country and the country, which is not as complicated as you think, let alone shouting those few words. I won't talk about me, compare me with you, that's really bullying you, let's just say that the famous goddess doctor recently, she is much better than you in governing the country and the country. β
When everyone heard this, they unconsciously looked at Liu Yunxi who was sitting in the corner.
Liu Yunxi frowned when he heard this, and he wanted to throw a few poisonous snakes up, so he turned his head coldly.
Li Qi smiled: "Don't be unconvinced, it is precisely because of Liu Yunxi's tireless efforts that canned insects will appear in our field of vision, when the Jin soldiers defended Kaifeng City, canned insects played a vital role, and saved a lot of people, and the emergence of insect food, to the people to bring benefits, far from the case, it can be in a big way, alleviate a certain food crisis, but also create a lot of ways to make money, try to ask how many people have been saved by your law of governing the country and the country, how many people have been rich?" Hehe, in fact, there are countless people like Liu Yunxi, but they don't get the respect they deserve. β
"What does the privy envoy mean, it is useless to read, and everyone in the world should learn those tricks? Or agriculture, or industry, or commerce? β
Li Qi said: "I have never said that I am aiming at a bad atmosphere created by today's readers, not that reading is useless. In my dynasty, if you can make a quatrain, it is far more respectable than if you were to have a magnifying glass. Yes, you can make a quatrain, which proves that you have talent in this area, but this is only your personal honor, what is the use of this quatrain for Jiangshan Sheji, I really don't know. Why is this happening?
It is because of the current readers, reading books have read a sense of superiority, as if they have not read the Four Books and Five Classics, and have not read the Confucian Bible, they should be despised by others, of course, you did not say so, but you did this, however, this kind of atmosphere, so that Confucianism is a small view, and the rest of the schools are all withered talents.
But all children since they are sensible, whether it is their parents and elders, or the people around them, they want him to learn Confucianism, only after learning Confucianism, you can be regarded as a scholar, you can get ahead, you can be looked down upon, you learn others, then others will say that what you learn is strange and ingenious, inferior, I say this, not to say that Confucianism is wrong, by no means so, I just want to say, not everyone has this talent, some people have a very good talent in arithmetic, some people have a very good hands-on ability, Some people are born to be generals, but now this kind of atmosphere makes them have to give up their talents and blindly devote themselves to Confucianism, which has caused the loss of talents, and Confucianism is uneven, and there are all kinds of crooked melons and cracked dates.
I'm really glad I didn't go with the flow, I really don't have the talent for this, if you want me to recite poetry against me and write a beautiful hand, that's really humiliating me, mine really can't write, even if I don't sleep and practice for a hundred years, I can't write Taishi. But it is precisely because of this that I have been able to get to this point, I don't think I can have today is lucky, I also rely on my own strength, to get to this point, you can write articles such as the career, I use food and wine to enter the career, why not.
Yes, I admit that the Emperor Taishang loved to eat the dishes I cooked, so he let me enter the court as an official, I never deny this, but it turns out that the Emperor Taishang's original choice was very wise, for his choice, I also gave full affirmation to the table, I made a qiΔ for the Great Song Dynasty, who can erase it. If Liu Yunxi also devoted himself to Confucianism, then when the Jin soldiers defended Kaifeng, there would be hundreds of people who died because of her choice, if the ordnance prison did not have those skilled craftsmen, maybe Kaifeng City would have been broken, and we should also use our talents and our way to repay this country and contribute to this country, and we should be respected, not despised.
Confucius taught us to be humble, but now many Confucian scholars look down on this peasant all day long, and look down on that craftsman, not to mention, even if I read a nine-chapter arithmetic, I am afraid that I will be despised by some Confucian students, let me ask what kind of modesty this is? I'm really, really curious. Confucianism advocates that there must be a teacher in the threesome, which is a modest gesture, but not only do you not do this, but also use Confucianism to suppress other schools. A strong country is by no means a single outstanding, but should be a hundred schools of thought. β
