Chapter 218: Good Things Belong to the Tatars
The magistrate of Zaozhuang said: "I suggest that you pay them truthfully...... Of course, if there are difficulties, you can also ......"
The workshop owners were obedient and listened to the sound, and immediately began to gossip. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Some people say that they have a small profit; Some say it's too early to open; Some people say that when they first recruited, the cost was too high...... In short, all the reasons justify the inability to pay them normal wages.
The magistrate of Zaozhuang listened quietly, smiled coldly, and did not make a sound.
The owner of the workshop, Lao Gui, looked carefully on the side, people died for money, birds died for food, and I really didn't believe that they could serve the taxpayers as officials!
He said: "Most of the workers in our hands have just come here, where are they taxpayers? It's better to count them as nameless and invisible people......"
"Humph! How to be considered a nameless and invisible person...... How could they not walk around the Zaozhuang area?! ”
The magistrate of Zaozhuang still said coldly.
Lao Gui, the owner of the shop, also said: "If they don't like to walk around because they are new to this place, of course, they can't buy any commercial goods anyway, let alone do any business...... How can it not be a nameless and invisible person?! ”
After hearing this, a smile flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he talked about him left and right.
Lao Gui, the owner of the workshop, smiled in his heart, thinking, it was really not the matter of guaranteeing the wages of laborers.
He discussed it with the crowd in a low voice, and decided to enclose the laborers and never let them out...... Then he handed over a sum of money to the magistrate of Zaozhuang County, and began to build a school building in Zaozhuang County in the name of donating school funds.
This infrastructure engineering team was set up by the brother-in-law of the magistrate of Zaozhuang County...... The project was very "sufficient".
The magistrate of Zaozhuang thought about it for a while, and felt that there was no loophole that could be found...... In this way, the speed of "making a fortune" is a little slower, but the water often flows, hehe.
The workshop owners were relieved that they were going to get back the losses they had suffered this time from the laborers.
The laborers found themselves in captivity, as if they couldn't get out...... The owner explained that in this way, no one else would find out, and he would not have to pay taxes.
The workers nodded in acknowledging that freedom was of little use as long as they did not pay taxes.
The laborers found themselves eating just a few things: salted whale meat, kelp, potatoes, cornmeal, dried cassava...... It's okay, I'm finally able to eat, and it's a good thing to be alive.
Captive care is beneficial for increasing working hours and labor intensity.
The laborers feel more and more tired......
At that time, there were a few guys in Zaozhuang County, one of whom was Li Zhichang's closed disciple, known as "Tiekou Li".
Back then, that Qiu Chuji went to the palace in the Western Regions in 1219 to meet Genghis Khan, so he was greatly respected, and was also given a golden tiger plaque and a seal book, and let him preside over the teaching affairs of Taoism and all monks in the world.
After this Qiu Zhenren returned to Yanjing, he was stationed in Changchun Palace to open an altar and preach the precepts, and his disciples went around to observe and preach people, so that the Quanzhen Taoist organization developed to the extreme.
At that time, the Quanzhen Taoist palace was all over the northern provinces and regions, "although there are ten rooms, there must be a seat."
This heyday has been developed since Qiu Chu's opportunity, and the scale has been quite large after Yin Zhiping and Li Zhichang have been in charge of teaching...... However, they were "restricted" by Kublai Khan, the leader of the Tatar bandit group, and they had to restrain their development.
When Shandong was occupied by the Liuqiu Guards, they felt that the opportunity had come, and it was natural for them to preach in Shandong...... They started in Shandong in the first place, and then went out of Shandong, so it must be easy to kill them again.
But as things passed, they found that the people of Shandong were not the same as they imagined.
In the doctrine of Quanzhen, the idea of birth is strong.
It points out that life is a "sea of suffering", the family is a "prison" and a "fire house", and the love of husband and wife is a "golden flail and jade lock", and persuades people to "jump out of the cage", see through fame and wealth, learn Taoism and alchemy, and achieve positive results by leaving the "sea of suffering".
What is this positive result?
It is the true nature of human beings.
Immortality is the basic belief of Taoism, and it is the fundamental symbol that distinguishes it from other religions, and the same is true of the basic belief of Quanzhen Religion.
However, it is very different from the old Taoism, which mostly believed that after cultivation, the form and the spirit could be immortal, so their belief was that the body and spirit would live forever together, that is, the so-called "ascension of the day".
This is not the case with the Quanzhen Sect, which no longer pursues the "immortality of the body" in the belief in becoming immortals, but only pursues the liberation of "true nature" and the ascension of the "yang god" to heaven.
They believed that the human body was meant to perish, and that the true nature or yang god of man could live forever.
"Cultivation must be cultivated through the body, and the body should not be stagnation. The four things that are false are bad in the end, and the true spirit has to be reaped. It is also said that "the only spirit is true, and the four major bodies of the flesh are false."
Thus the Quanzhen religion criticizes the seekers of physical immortality...... Since the physical body is mortal, and only the "true nature" and "yang god" can live forever and ascend to heaven after being liberated, they regard the human body as a shackle and want it to be destroyed, so that the true nature and the yang god can be liberated as soon as possible.
Therefore, the teachings of the Quanzhen Religion are full of remarks that deny the flesh and life.
For example, Qiu Chuji denounced the flesh as "stinky skin" and "rotten meat", "a little bit is like sex, pounces into the stinky skin, the wandering soul loses its way, follows the waves, and does not return to his hometown for thousands of years." ”
He denounced life as a "sea of suffering" and "a house of fire", and regarded the relationship between father and son, husband and wife as "unjust karma".
At the beginning of the establishment of the Chongyang Patriarch, the monks must live in the nunnery to practice, and the living conditions should be frugal.
In the early days of Quanzhen Taoism, the Chongyang patriarch regarded people's seven emotions and five desires as an obstacle to becoming immortals and the root cause of the cycle of life and death.
In particular, when Qiu Chuji replied to Genghis Khan, he said: "A man who learns the Tao,...... The world loves to live and doesn't care, the world doesn't live there, go to the sound, and take silence as entertainment; The taste of the screen is beautiful with tranquility. …… Seeing the color, hearing the sound, the mouth is addicted to taste, and the sex is lovely, then it disperses its breath. "And the qi disperses the body and dies, and after death, it will sink to the ground as a ghost...... Mortals must first follow these 12 words: cut off wine and wealth, climb to support love, and worry and worry. ”
At that time, Genghis Khan was happy after listening to it, yes, all good things belong to the Tatars, and good women are just like that...... Just let you Han people live a hard life by yourself!
After being encouraged, the Quanzhen Sect further stipulated that Taoists should try to reduce food, save sleep, and cut off ****, claiming that the harm of cultivation is that the three desires of eating, sleeping, and lust are important, and if you eat more, you will sleep more, and sleep more **** is born.
With the expansion of the organization, especially after the heyday of the early Yuan Dynasty, the original simple hermitage became a large hall with carved beams and paintings, but the management system and the rules and precepts of the palace were gradually improved.
Most of its systems and precepts are modeled after Buddhism, and the integrity of the system and the strictness of its implementation are second to none among the Taoist sects.
After the comprehensive explanation of the teachings, canons and theoretical methods of Quanzhen Taoism by the Chongyang Patriarch and his disciples, the Quanzhen props have a relatively new look and stand tall among the Taoist schools, laying the foundation for the later development of one of the two major Taoist schools.
At first, Tiezui Li came to Shandong with full confidence to preach...... The so-called Liuqiu Guards are not terrible, as long as they do not violate their rules, they can walk at will, and no one even checks their degrees. (To be continued.) )
