Chapter 961: Live like the people around you

After talking about serious matters, King Wei Hui took Zhuangzi around the territory of Wei for a few days. Eight? One? Middle? Wenwang ā‰¤ā‰ˆ=.≄8=1ā‰ˆZā‰¤ā‰ˆ.=COM Every day, in addition to looking at the current situation of the Wei State, is to sit down and drink and talk about things. With such a great talent by his side, it would be a fool not to ask him!

The chief eunuch prepared the silk thread and five hundred taels of silver, and then handed it over to Zhuangzi together. It's not difficult to get five hundred taels of silver, just take it from the local county or state. But this silk thread has to be picked up in the capital. So! It was delayed for many days.

Zhuangzi received silk thread and silver before he took his leave and returned to China.

King Wei Hui prepared 1,000 taels of silver for Zhuangzi, but Zhuangzi didn't want that much and felt that it was inconvenient to carry it with him. He only needs three hundred taels, but King Wei Hui must accept five hundred taels.

"Don't be stupid! You! Mr! It's not a lot of money, so you can use it as a family! If you use it as a family, you can use it for some time! ā€

Before leaving, King Wei Hui made a special explanation: "You buy a few sets of new clothes for yourself and your family first." At least! Do you want to wear a new outfit when you go out? You? Alas! ā€

Looking at Zhuangzi's patched linen coat, King Wei Hui didn't know what to say.

In his impression, this Zhuangzi should be able to live a life of being a master. But? People just don't want to, they just want to live like the people around them, and live the life of the poor.

And then! King Hui of Wei sent someone to escort Zhuangzi to the border of Wei.

When he arrived at the border of the Song Kingdom, Zhuangzi went home alone with five hundred silver on his back and a silk thread in his hand. When there was no one in the place, Zhuangzi disappeared from the place where he was, and returned home in a flash.

It took Zhuangzi nearly three months to leave the Song Kingdom this time. Back in my hometown in the small town of Mengxian County, it was already the end of autumn.

When he returned home, Zhuangzi was an old habit, and the five hundred taels of silver given by King Wei Hui were distributed to the surrounding poor families like scattered flowers by the goddess. Or! Buy fish, buy meat, buy cloth, etc., and give them to people in need. When everyone knew that he was rich again, and he was spending money indiscriminately, when about half of the five hundred taels of silver were spent, he began to live a life similar to that of the people around him, and he became a poor man again.

For this kind of life, the seller has become accustomed to it. If you have money, you will spend it, and if you don't have money, you will be poor. Of course! Sell know! The current Zhuangzi is different from the Zhuangzi of the past. The former Zhuangzi was really the kind of person who spent money when he had money and was poor if he didn't have money, and he didn't keep any foundation. And today's Zhuangzi is guaranteed. When the five hundred taels of silver were spent about two or three hundred taels, they stopped spending indiscriminately, and began to pretend to be poor.

According to the Taoist theory of survival, if you want to live a better life, you have to change places. With the income of the Zhuangzi family, it is completely possible to live in the capital. In modern language, it is possible to live in first-tier cities, and you can live in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen.

But Zhuangzi did not choose to live in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, but! Choose to live in seclusion in a small town. He gave the money to buy a house in a first-tier city, and the kind of high-spending money, to those around him who needed help. When he has spent "all the money", he will become a human being like the people around him.

According to the Taoist theory of survival, if you want to improve your living standards, Zhuangzi can also go to the county or prefecture to live. That's it! You can eat meat openly. It's not like now, it's inconvenient to even eat meat when you pretend to be poor.

Living in a small town, you can only live like the people around you, you can't live a richer life than others, and you can't live a worse life than others.

If you live a richer life than others, you will encounter the jealousy and even hatred of those around you. And also! When others know that your family has money, they will pester you and make you have no time for peace. And also! The thief will think about your family, and the bandits will think about your family and kidnap your children.

So! If you want to live a prosperous life, you can only change the environment and change to the environment with that standard of living. You can leave the town, the county, the state, and live in a first-tier city such as the capital. Such! You will always maintain the same standard of living as the people around you.

If you live a life that is lower than others, you will be looked down upon by those around you. You don't affect other people's lives and survival, but others not only look down on you, but also take precautions, always worrying that you will pester them or steal their stuff and so on.

So! If your living conditions are too low, you should also change places and not live a lower life than others. You should move to a poorer place and live the same life as the people around you, so that no one will look down on you.

But! Taoism does not pay attention to eating fish, meat, delicacies of the mountains and seas, and tastes, but! Taoism is all about nutrition. How much nutrients a person needs to consume in a day is indispensable. As long as you can ensure a day's nutrition, you don't care if you eat fish and meat every day. As long as you can ensure a day's nutrition, it doesn't matter what you eat.

Just like modern people, they are tired of eating high-fat foods such as fish and meat and still want to eat whole grains. People who look forward to having fish and meat to eat, and people who always feel that they don't have enough fish and meat to eat and pursue gluttony, are all poor people's psychology.

The silver of the Zhuangzi family is still managed by the seller, and all the business is controlled by the seller. But! Zhuangzi asked the goddess to spend money like flowers, and he would not object to selling children. When the silver is almost spent, Zhuangzi asks for indiscriminate spending, and the seller will not agree. If Zhuangzi does not agree, Zhuangzi will no longer make unreasonable demands.

Zhuangzi knew that there must be a lot of silver, which was the bottom line of guaranteeing money and supporting his family. If the wealth is not revealed, these guaranteed funds cannot be revealed.

Once when he was in the lacquer garden, Zhuangzi said that he wanted to let the seller be the housekeeper, and the seller agreed. Mai'er said that he would ensure that Zhuangzi would have food for the rest of his life and not let him go hungry.

With the character of the girl who scattered flowers in the days before Zhuangzi, it was common to be hungry. Because! There are so many people in need of help in the world that you can't help them at all.

In the past, Zhuangzi, especially when he had just come down from the mountain, wanted to help others when they saw them in difficulty. Moreover! It's a help. Outcome! So that he is often in an embarrassing state of shyness in the bag.

So! The poor are not necessarily all selfless, and the rich are definitely selfish. Because! If you are not selfish, you will not be able to accumulate money.

The babies of the Zhuangzi family are very obedient and don't cause trouble outside. Under the education of Zhuangzi and Mai'er, he is very kind-hearted. I never look down on others, I want to help others. But! Their ability is limited, they can't help others, and they are very anxious.

Behind Zhuang Geng, Mai'er gave birth to another girl. Selling children doesn't like girls, they think that girls have limited abilities and are bullied. But! She was born and raised, and out of her heart, she was still treated the same.

The twin sisters no longer take their younger siblings, and under the personal teaching of Mai'er, they have begun to learn embroidery.

In order to motivate the two, every time they complete the task, they will be rewarded for selling their children. The two sisters are also very obedient and work very hard to get rewarded. After receiving the reward, they will share it with their younger siblings.

Yang Hu was naughty, but he was afraid of his father and didn't dare to be presumptuous.

But! Yang Hu is not the kind of blind and naughty, the kind of naughty that belongs to the nature of children.

may be out of longing for Yang Qing'er or guilt, although Zhuangzi is strict with Yang Hu on the surface, he likes him in his heart. The care for Yanghu is more and deeper than that of Zhuang Ping and Zhuang Geng.
