Chapter 384: Surviving in the Cracks (2)

"Let the world do whatever I want?"

"Let the world do whatever I want?"

"Where is it possible? Let the world do what I want? ”

"Don't even think about it! Where is it possible? In the Great Zhou world, you can go wherever you want? When you leave this vassal state and go to that vassal state, you need to clear the customs documents, and if you don't have the documents, who will let you out of the customs? ”

"If you don't clear the customs papers, you go to another country, and people will kill you as a spy."

"That's it! It is! If you don't have the ability, you will be bullied and controlled by others when you go to the world! You said? You? ”

Zhuangzi said, "Let the world do whatever I want", and I went wherever I wanted, but met with strong opposition from everyone, thinking that it was impossible.

I think it's easy to say, but it's hard to do. If only it were that easy, then! The world has been chaotic for a long time, and everyone is not going wherever they want, right? I can't stay in this country, so I'll go to another country, right?

"Survive in the cracks!"

Zhuangzi smiled at everyone and said, "Don't be dogmatic! Isn't that an analogy? When we find that the country can't stay any longer, we can emigrate. It's a way to survive in the cracks. If we all emigrate, the king's side will definitely come up with a policy to deal with immigration and prevent everyone from immigrating.

Again, there is no one under the king, no one creates value for them, what do they use to enjoy, to power, to honor, to realize their dreams. Especially in today's era of princes competing for hegemony, your country has no population and no comprehensive national strength, so you still have a yarn? Isn't it?

So! When we all emigrate, no matter how tyrannical the king is, they will change their policies and keep us. This is not? Don't we have hope of living again?

When I talk about emigration to other countries, that's just a way to survive in the cracks. In fact! It's a helpless approach. It's also hard for us to survive when we emigrate to a strange country. Because! We may not be able to integrate into local customs.

And also! Although we are all people of the Great Zhou, the Great Zhou has been divided into various vassal states. If you are not from this vassal state, and you are an immigrant, the locals may be excluded, saying that you are a spy sent by another country, and they will drive you away.

So! Immigration is a stopgap measure, not a long-term solution.

If we want to survive in the cracks, we still have to look for the cracks in our own country! In fact! We don't just have one way to immigrate, we can also look for gaps! I dare say! There are cracks everywhere in life, but you don't notice it. ”

What Zhuangzi means is that there are cracks everywhere in life, but we don't find them. Immigration is just one of them, and if you don't immigrate, you will find the same gaps. The white-haired old monster and the protectors are dogmatic about "immigration". Think you've emigrated, and the king will have a way to stop you.

In fact, immigration is not an easy task. Unless war comes, take advantage of the chaos to cross borders and be like refugees. Often, after the war, the warring countries have to vigorously develop their populations, and there are "refugee policies" introduced. Host a large number of refugees and live in the country. Ready-made population, who does not take in?

Wise kings in general are very kind to these "refugees" and are of great help. In terms of taxation, it is also lower than that of the people of the country. When refugees settle down in their home countries, some of them may return to their home countries.

Then! Neither does the king suffer. Because! These temporary refugees have created a certain amount of wealth for your country. So! Liberal policies have generally been adopted to encourage refugees to move freely. Preferential policies are used to attract refugees to settle down.

Only a mediocre king considers refugees to be a burden, even a danger. Thereby! Restrictive measures were imposed on refugees. Nature! In such a country, there are no refugees going there.

"In addition to immigration, we have a way to live in seclusion. We can choose to live in a deserted place, as far away from the crowd as possible, and isolated from the world. You can also go to live in the mountains, and no one in the government can find us.

Can't go, can't go, can't we hide? Isn't it?

In fact! We can also do without leaving, immigrants. There is no need to go to seclusion in the mountains, seclusion in a deserted place. We live normally, and we can live well. In our lives, we can find the cracks that allow us to survive. ”

Seeing that everyone couldn't believe it and was looking at him, Zhuangzi shook his head and smiled: "Don't believe it, do you?" ”

Everyone looked at him and nodded their heads in response.

"Don't believe it, do you? Good? Then I'll tell you about it! How do we survive in the cracks? ”

Seeing that the crowd still didn't believe, Zhuangzi had no choice but to speak.

In fact! He was just, and didn't think it through. Anyway! He feels that we can find the gap that we can survive everywhere in life.

"First of all! We must be law-abiding citizens who obey the laws of kings. This is the first and foremost rule, and no matter which princely country you live in, you must obey the laws of that country.

And then! Look for the law that is good for us, and practice our profession.

The laws of any country have this and that stipulation, and whichever is more conducive to our survival, we will engage in that profession. The laws of this country are agriculture-oriented, and the taxes are low, so I go farming. The laws of this country value commerce, so I went into business. If I look at handicrafts, I will engage in handicrafts.

Anyway! Whichever is good for me, I'll do that profession. I don't necessarily have to be in agriculture or crafts, not in stone. Adapt to the environment, the needs of reality!

It's a career choice! We are free to choose our careers, and no one can force us, right? Isn't it? If we had to be in that profession! So? Maybe you're in for a treat.

And also! In addition to obeying the laws of the land! We must also have one or several survival skills! At this point, the Mo family is very good! Mo disciples generally have one or several survival skills! I grew up in the Mo family! I just have a lot of survival skills! If you don't have one or a few survival skills, you're a yarn boy! You can only be controlled by people everywhere.

We are Taoists! Survival skills are also important! The same belief is that we must have a way to survive. If you don't have one! You're a yarn mix!

Survival skills! In fact! Each of us is born with it! Anything can be a survival skill!

Men are handsome, and they are also survival skills! A woman is beautiful, and it is also a survival skill! It's eating with your face and eating with your body.

Talking, but also a survival skill! A clever mouth and a clever tongue can please others, and you can also have food. If you can speak, and you have an IQ to help others with ideas, then you can be a strategist.

Being able to cook is also a survival skill. Strength is also a survival skill! A craft and a survival skill......

Only when we have more survival skills, when we choose a career, can we choose a career that is more beneficial to us. The profession that is beneficial to us is the gap that can survive.

And also! Mainly, one! That is, we must have a correct outlook on life! We must use Taoist thought to guide our lives! Let's not be swayed by others, don't be used by others! Only Taoism can do this, not to be swayed by others, not to be used by others......"
