Chapter 232 The Prospect of Reading

"The sage Sima Qian once said: The world is bustling, all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit. Since this right is a profit, this fame is a profit, this beauty is a benefit, and this money is of course a kind of profit, and since it is all for profit, there is no distinction between superior and inferior.

We can't boast about fame and despise money because we are looking for fame. In fact, in the boy's view, the pursuit of money is more commendable than the pursuit of fame, power, and beauty.

After all, the sky and the earth are big, and the belly is the biggest, since you are born as a human being, you should be responsible. Without money, how can we provide for our families and fulfill our responsibilities as sons of man? Without money, how can we pay our taxes and support the nation's construction?

The first saint Mencius also said: If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will help the world. It can be seen that poverty cannot realize our ideals in life, and only after we are rich can we have the world in our hearts.

Even our sages didn't have any contempt for money, so why should we, the descendants, pretend to be high?

Since our ancestor Cangjie coined the word, there is the word benefit, since it is a beneficial thing, it will inevitably be accompanied by benefits.

Master Yan, if you want the revival of our clan's culture, you must let the people realize that knowledge can change fate, and although money is vulgar, it is the fastest effect. ”

Seeing that Yan Wenting seemed to be very disdainful of money, Wen Qihang had to dissect it and crumple it to elaborate carefully. If you have not experienced the commercial society of later generations, you will not understand how powerful the power of money is.

"Hearing what the lord said, please forgive the old man for not agreeing, Kong Sheng once praised his ancestor Yan Hui: a spoonful of food, a scoop of drink, in the alley, people are unbearable, and they will not change their pleasure when they return, and they are virtuous!

In the old man's view, learning should be cultivated along the way, and it is fundamental. Yan Wenting shook his head and said.

“........”

In Wen Qihang's opinion, Yan Wenting is an old stubborn, and the people are almost unable to eat. Who is still in the mood to do learning.

In Yan Wenting's view, the idea that you can be invincible when you hear Qihang's sharp words is simply a kind of evil crookedness.

This is the case with academic disputes, and this kind of controversy is not at all a matter of words, which can be said clearly. Smell set sail and don't intend to talk in vain.

"Master Yan, since you are a guest here today, why don't you let the boy take you around? See also how well the boy managed the fiefdom with results? "A pointless battle of words, of course, it is better to speak with facts, and Wen Qihang suggested.

Yan Wenting said happily: "It's okay, the old man has also heard that it only took half a year for Wenjue to completely reinvent Guanlou Village, and today is just the right time for the old man to have a look." ”

Wen Qihang smiled and said, "Master Yan, please!" ”

After more than half a year of governance, no one can imagine what Guanlou Village looked like half a year ago.

Yan Wenting has seen many villages, especially those in this troubled world, all of which show a sense of decadence and dilapidation.

However, Guanlou Village gave him a very different feeling, walking on the clean and tidy laneway, the breeze blowing the water vapor brought from the pond, which made people feel quite relaxed.

Especially the villagers here, he has a feeling of indescribability, although his expression seems to be a little decadent, but it is not the kind of heart that is dead. It was just a feeling of chagrin, but it was this feeling that let Yan Wenting know that they had hope and longing in their hearts.

"Wenjue, these villagers seem to have something on their minds?" Yan Wenting asked Wen Qihang for confirmation with doubts.

"It's all self-inflicted." Speaking of this, I was angry, and I said angrily when I heard Qihang.

"This place is under the jurisdiction of Wenjue, and it is the people of Wenjue, can't Wenjue relieve his worries?"

Wen Qihang sighed: "It's not that the kid doesn't want to do his best, it's just that this matter is beyond the kid's ability." ”

After talking about the matter carefully with Yan Wenting, even Yan Wenting was surprised, his family was in charge of history. Ever since he was in history, he had never heard of too much food being a hazard.

"It's ........ How good is that? The corners of Yan Wenting's mouth twitched slightly.

"Hey, it's just five thousand pigs! It's a pity that there are hundreds of thousands of people in my Great Song Jingshi, and the daily consumption is only more than 60 heads. It can be seen how many people cannot afford to eat meat. Wen Qihang said helplessly.

"Can you do it cheaper?"

"No, Master Yan! It's not a kid, I only recognize money. After all, I am not the only one who raises pigs, and if we reduce the price, many farmers, especially those who only raise one or two, and plan to sell them to make up for their lives, will suffer heavy losses. ”

Guanlou Village did only raise 5,000 pigs this time, but those retail households around Jingshi also raised them, at least there will be tens of thousands. If these 5,000 pigs are used to hit the market, those farmers who raise one or two in their homes and plan to sell them to buy some household goods during the New Year's Festival, I am afraid that they will only cry.

"But if you keep raising it, won't the villagers have to lose something?" Yan Wenting said worriedly.

"Yes, it can be seen that there is a terrible thing about not having money." Smelling Qihang smacked his lips.

“........”

No matter what the environment is, as long as it is clean and tidy, it will not give people a bad impression. Even if it's not your favorite Jiangnan water town or idyllic style, it won't make people feel disgusted.

Walking into the printing workshop in Guanlou Village, a smell of ink and books greeted him, Yan Wenting is a book lover, so he naturally has a good impression of it, and he can't help but take a long breath of the air that lingers in the room.

Seeing this situation, he coughed lightly when he heard Qihang, and he didn't plan to remind Yan Wenting that in order to better ink the book when printing the book, he actually added horse urine to the ink.

"I've seen the lord, I've seen this gentleman." When a student in charge of the printing workshop saw Qihang and walked in, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Wen Qihang nodded and ordered: "Well, go and bring two copies of our newly printed "Liang Zhu" and "Queqiao Meeting", and ask Mr. Yan to correct them." ”

"Yes." The student replied.

After taking the two books that the student had taken, Wen Qihang handed them to Yan Wenting and said with a smile: "Master Yan, these are two classical masterpieces newly sorted out by the Printing Workshop, and I also ask Master Yan to correct them." ”

Yan Wenting took the two books handed over by Wen Qihang suspiciously, and after checking them for a while, he frowned and said, "Isn't this just a script?" ”

Wen Qihang nodded and said: "Well, it's okay, if the kid prints these two books and distributes them all over the world, what does Master Yan think?" ”

"This is what Wen Jue said about teaching the world?" Yan Wenting said noncommittally.

Wen Qihang shook his head and said: "It's not a teaching to the world, it's just a way to find a way for some people to live." ”

"Alive?" Yan Wenting wondered.

"yes!" Hearing Qihang, he sighed and gestured to the student who was waiting beside him. The student bowed his head lightly and walked down.

After a while, the student walked in with a large group of scholars in the same place.

"I've seen Wenjue, I've seen Master Yan." The crowd saluted. Obviously, there are people among them who know Yan Wenting.

"Wenjue, ........ this?" Yan Wenting was surprised.

Wen Qihang sighed: "They say that they are the seeds of the revival of my Chinese clan. ”

"Wen Jue is saying that they are all scholars?" Yan Wenting frowned.

Wen Qihang nodded and said: "Yes, they are all students from all over the country who are preparing to take the examination for fame, but it is a pity that the previous dynasty collapsed, and my dynasty has not opened the election." These students stayed in Beijing for half a year, and now they have run out of money and cannot travel back and forth to their hometowns, and are almost reduced to a situation of begging.

Master Yan, in this case, can they exchange their knowledge for some money to feed their stomachs? ”

"It's ........ There is no need. Yan Wenting sighed.

"The two scripts in Master Yan's hands were compiled by the kid according to folklore, and the kid is going to pay a hundred yuan for this script, what does Master Yan think?" Wen Qihang smiled.

“........”

Yan Wenting has nothing to say about Wen Qihang, isn't this still a change of method and asking for manuscript fees from himself!
