Chapter 162 The Monk with a Crooked Mouth
Chapter 162 The Monk with a Crooked Mouth
The first doctor of the Five Classics who was edicted was named Zhang Hui, who ruled the "Spring and Autumn Period" all his life, and was the best of the doctors of the Five Classics.
After listening to the emperor's doubts, he naturally told the emperor the story of Fan Li in the Spring and Autumn Period.
In Fan Li's life, he distributed the wealth he earned to his friends and the people three times, and then started a new business after dividing it.
And in the entrepreneurship has always been honest and benevolent as the starting point of the business, he has never been as careful as ordinary businessmen, extorting money, but humble and courteous to collaborators, and very generous to employees.
In the event of a reduction in production in a disaster year, the land rent will be reduced or reduced, and at the same time, a porridge field will be opened to provide relief to the victims.
At the beginning of the year, some farmers and businessmen signed contracts for the purchase of goods, and at the end of the year, if the price of goods rose, Fan Li purchased them at the current price, and if the price fell, he strictly fulfilled the contract price.
Therefore, because of his honesty and benevolence, he was able to obtain great wealth soon after his wealth was dissipated three times.
Fan Li's kindness to repay his family and country has made Fan Li's way of doing business and honesty and benevolence famous and passed on to future generations.
It is precisely because of his righteousness and squandering wealth and engaging in various public welfare undertakings that he has gained the reputation of "getting rich and doing his virtue".
Zhang Hui believes that Yun's production will naturally increase wealth, and if one more egg is produced, then the country will have one more egg.
And they don't do business, they just move the wealth of one place to another to earn the difference, and their behavior is very despicable and should be cracked down.
The Yun clan's behavior is obvious, he is learning from Fan Li, and he should be rewarded by the dynasty.
After listening to Zhang Hui's explanation, Liu Che and Zhang Tang were even more puzzled, so Liu Che ordered to summon the eldest doctor of the Five Classics, Shen Tugen.
After listening to Zhang Tang's narration, Shen Tugen closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then said, "Your Majesty, why do you speak alone?"
Only when justice and interest are in harmony is the ...... of the great policy"
Then, Shen Tugen told the emperor and Zhang Tang -
Confucianism is not opposed to the pursuit of "profit", believing that "righteousness" and "profit" do not conflict, but the acquisition of "profit" should conform to the principle of "righteousness".
In the Analects, Confucius said: "Wealth and nobility are what people want; If you don't get it by its way, you can't get it anywhere. Poverty and cheapness are the evil of people; If you don't get it by its way, you won't go. ”
Confucius believed that everyone wanted to obtain "wealth and nobility" (i.e., benefits), but the benefits must be obtained with morality, and if it violates morality to obtain wealth, it is not allowed, so Confucianism believes that it must be to take profits under the condition of abiding by morality.
He also told the emperor to read more of the Analects, and that there were many expositions on righteousness and benefit in one Analect.
Such as "rich and noble, people want to do what they want",
"Unrighteous and rich and expensive, like floating clouds to me",
"Rich and can be sought, although the whip is a man, I will also do it" and so on.
In the end, he told the emperor that Yun's approach was very much in line with Kongqiu's requirements for the combination of righteousness and benefit, and such a family was also the gate of great goodness.
Shen Tugen recounted the time of a pillar of incense sprinkled, and saw that the emperor and Zhang Tang had already understood what profit was and what righteousness was, so he said goodbye with satisfaction.
Shen Tugen had been gone for a long time, and Zhang Tang asked the emperor in a low voice: "Your Majesty, is Mr. Shen Tu a master of the Analects?" ”
Liu Che glanced at Zhang Tang and nodded as if he was nothing.
The two gentlemen just now were naturally erudite, and there was not the slightest fallacy in what they said, but until now, the emperor and Zhang Tang still hadn't figured out why the Yun clan's business was beneficial to everyone, but it didn't hurt anyone.
However, the biggest reason why the emperor is different is that he is skilled in extracting what he needs from the wisdom of others.
Liu Che is one of the best.
Every time Fan Li earns countless money from others, he will scatter his family wealth to ensure that the wealth in the world is still balanced.
Moreover, he did this as many as three times, and in the end, he did not take much money with him, but took Xi Shi on the lake and became a fisherman......
The same is true of the giant Jia Zigong in Shentugen's mouth, this guy who died in the last bullet did not take away any wealth......
The Emperor cannot be confused......
As a result, the emperor and Zhang Tang quickly reached a simple opinion, that is, a businessman who does not take away the wealth and finally returns it to the world is a good businessman.
The rest, the insufficiency and the argument!
"Yunlang is married, Weichen still has to go, I don't know if Your Majesty has any other instructions?"
Zhang Tang was already ready to leave, he had stayed in the palace for too long today, and it was about to get dark.
Liu Che stood up, pondered for a moment with his hands behind his back and said: "Tell Yun Lang that once he has a reward, he will save it for him, and after Bai Shan comes back, it will be the time when he will shine on the lintel of the Yun Clan." ”
"Weichen thanked the emperor for his great kindness on behalf of Yunlang."
After Zhang Tang thanked the emperor, he stepped on the last ray of light and left the imperial city, and when he was about to get on the horse, he couldn't help but look back.
The golden sunlight painted the dark imperial city with a layer of bright color, and the palace was as if it were made of gold.
Zhang Tang didn't want Yun Lang to go to Baishan Mountain at all, and the reason why he asked the emperor the last sentence was that he hoped to hear the news from the emperor that Yun Lang was not allowed to go to Baishan Mountain.
Now it seems that the emperor cared more about the loyalty of a courtier than the wisdom.
went to Baishan Mountain, life and death are boundless......
Yun's collection of books is far more than Sima Qian expected, after all, Gillian doesn't like to read, but she likes to collect books very much, so in the shortest time, more than half of the books in the Changmen Palace were copied by Yun Lang to find the eunuch of the Changmen Palace Library and re-copied it.
The job lasted more than two years......
The Nagato Palace collection is very different from the books in other places, the difference is that the Nagato Palace collection does not have to abide by the royal taboo, and there is no need to care about the internal strife of the hundred schools of thought, as long as it is a book that Nagato Palace does not have, they will actively collect it.
For example, Sima Qian saw this "Huainanzi".
Liu An, the king of Huainan, is now living a miserable life, and it is said that even the carriage drawn by four horses has been changed to two horses.
His daughter had married the Xiongnu, his son was digging copper for the Han in Yangshan, and more than half of his fiefdom had been taken away by the emperor.
Therefore, they can only rely on selling books to maintain a simple life.
This "Huainanzi" is one of the best.
Liu An is simple in life, however, in the spiritual world, Liu An is rich.
A copy of "Huainanzi" kept Sima Qian awake all night, and he still couldn't put it down after reading it three times.
Even so, Sima Qian keenly noticed that the map of the Western Regions in the Yun Clan's collection was very different from what he had seen in the Taishiling Library.
As a person with endless curiosity about the world, Sima Qian felt that it was necessary for him to talk to Yun Lang face to face after comparing the map of the Yun family with the map in the Taishi Museum.
Yun Lang was tired.
Last night, Song Qiao didn't return to his residence, and after the two young bodies collided all night, the iron-beaten people would also feel tired.
Moreover, in the process, Yunyin, who couldn't sleep well, always woke up from time to time and cried twice......
"Brother Yun, it's just that you have Huainanzi in your family, why is the map of the Western Regions in your collection so different from that of the National Dynasty?
Are you really sure that the Otsutsuki Clan is just west of the Green Ridge? ”
Faced with Sima Qian's aggressive question, Yun Lang yawned tiredly and said, "Brother Sima, I am now at the critical juncture of my wedding, is it inappropriate to say these things at this time?" ”
"What's so good about a drunken woman, how can it be interesting to talk about learning."
"That's you, I'm just a layman, and laypeople like some mundane things, okay, you can rest in the Yun family these days.
Since your father has returned to his hometown, you don't have anything to worry about, the Yun family has a lot of books, and the food and accommodation are good, so you can do your studies well.
Now, don't hold me and ask questions, be careful that I'll talk nonsense. ”
"In that case, I will make a list of them, write all my doubts on it, and answer them one by one after you get married."
He was a very straightforward person, and seeing that Yun Lang didn't want to ignore him, he left immediately without stopping for a moment.
Yun Lang originally wanted to tell him about asking him to be a gentleman, but the person disappeared.
It is estimated that if you want to ask him to be the husband of the family, you must first answer his boring questions, this person's temper is stubborn!
