Chapter 0100: Money and Spirits

The boat is docked not far from the shore and stands still on the water. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Wu Bai and the elders pushed the cup and changed the lamp, chatting about the world. When the moon was bright and the wine was hot, I heard a burst of exclamations from outside the painting boat.

"Li Gongzi has already solved three riddles, amazing!"

"Miss He's out yet, no one can untie it?"

"Hahahaha! This son is unlocked! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌβ€

When Mrs. Xu heard the exclamations on the shore, she said to everyone present: "The little ones are all making trouble, and we old guys are also joining in the fun?" ”

Li Mu was the first to respond, he asked the waiter to remove the food on the desk, and brought the four treasures of the study to wield it.

Wu Bai was next to him, watching this old guy walk the dragon and snake, although he was very dissatisfied with the fact that he repeatedly couldn't get along with himself, but I have to say that Old Man Li is worthy of being the old man of the academy, and his calligraphy is extraordinary!

With Li Mu at the beginning, all the old men began to put pen to paper. After a while, more than a dozen riddles jumped on the paper. When the ink dried, the maid who was waiting by took the paper away.

After stopping writing, Old Lady Xu saw that Wu Bai didn't move, so he said, "Zizhan doesn't show his hands? ”

Wu Bai shook his head, to be honest, he admired the calligraphy of the elders very much, as for the content of the lantern riddles, don't say it!

Mrs. Xu didn't force it, and said to the elders: "I have a pair of Mr. Danqing's handwriting and a thin tooth pen!" ”

Huan Zhiwu continued the words of the old lady Xu and said: "Old man Xu is arrogant, the old man can't be stingy, Xu's relics are rubbing, and Tianyao jade is a piece!" ”

Later, all the elders reported one or two important treasures of the literati, and it was the first time for Wu Bai to participate in this kind of scene, but he also knew that this was a reward.

Now that all the old men are out, I can't help but leave. He thought about it for a while, only to realize that he didn't seem to have any literary treasures.

I got a batch of them before, and I got them from Moshan, and finally I changed hands and dealt with them. Now it's embarrassing, what should I do?

After thinking about it to no avail, I immediately decided to be a little clichΓ© and just throw money at it!

"Forgive me, Zizhan is away from home, and his foundation is vain soon after his establishment, and he has never had a treasure in his hand, so he has a thousand taels of silver!"

The old men looked at Wu Bai with strange expressions, they didn't expect him to take out silver as a reward.

Li Mu snorted coldly and said, "It's full of copper stench, insulting Sven!" You can write a few words of caution casually, which are more real than a thousand taels of silver! ”

Yo! This old man can't get along with me or something. Go back again? Not good! I've already won one game against him before, and I can't win again. If you make this old man angry, it will be troublesome.

Wu Bai thought about it secretly and decided to ignore Li Mu. Smile at him, just don't speak!

Huan Zhiwu saw that the two were competing again, shook his head and said with a smile: "I remember that not long ago, Zizhan told the old man that wealth can pass through God, and money can pass through saints, so it is not insulting to Sven!" ”

All the old men were extremely surprised, Wu Zizhan actually talked to Second Master Huan about discussing Jia, and it sounded like Second Master Huan agreed with his words very much!

Old lady Xu asked Huan Zhiwu with a curious expression: "Can wealth pass through the gods, and wealth can pass through the saints?" Although this statement is a bit vulgar, but when you taste it carefully, there is a kind of vulgar and vulgar detachment! The old man has never heard of a great Confucian who made a note on this, where is this statement? ”

The rest of the old men also looked at Huan Zhiwu curiously, hoping to get an answer from him.

Huan Zhiwu shook his head and sighed, and replied: "According to Zizhan, it is from the hermit's note "The Theory of the God of Money", and the old man didn't elaborate when he first heard it. After that, every time I think about this note, I am full of emotion, and the explanation of the avenue is beyond words! ”

He is true of what he said, since that Wu Zizhan came to visit, he talked about the way of business based on great works such as "Shangjing", and each of them has a great philosophy.

Take this "Theory of the God of Money" as an example, no matter where it was in the environment of the earth at that time. In this world, in the current social environment, it is a warning story.

Leaving aside the question of human law or heavenly law, the answer is obvious. But as long as you have the people in mind, you will never want to see money become a measure of social status.

When Huan Zhiwu passed the "Theory of the God of Money" to his brother Huan Zhiru, the patriarch of the three dynasties of the empire was silent for half an hour after reading it.

If people in the world no longer focus on the study of the saints, and no longer cultivate the spirit of Haoran, everyone will chase money, and everything will be done from the perspective of money as the goal. What a terrible sight!

Etiquette and music are broken, and morality is decayed. Etiquette, righteousness and shame are no longer self-disciplined creeds, so what is the difference between this world and evil hells?

Although at present, Dazhen still determines the noble and the low, and spends the world by law. But there are some things that are about the foundations of the empire and should not be taken lightly.

This thing that flies without wings and walks without feet has been destined to occupy an indispensable position since its appearance.

It is very strange to say that during the Shang Dynasty, shellfish were used as currency, and natural shellfish could not meet the demand in the later period, so copper shellfish was cast. The Great Zhou Empire was divided into the world, so the currency evolved towards diversification.

After the establishment of Dazhen, Emperor Zhenwu directly abolished other currencies and measured them by gold, silver, and copper. What's even more incredible is that he teamed up with several major money banks in the world to issue such epoch-making things as silver tickets.

Sometimes Wu Bai not only secretly guessed that Emperor Zhenwu might also be a traverser. There is a lot of evidence, and there are too many things born from his hands, such as silver tickets, imperial examinations, martial arts, etc., which are beyond the normal development of society.

However, this is all his own unfounded speculation, and it is impossible to confirm it, Emperor Zhenwu has been dead for so many years, and everything has returned to dust.

……

Seeing that all the elders were deep in thought, Wu Bai hurriedly interrupted them with a light cough, some things are too advanced, not something that these old guys can figure out at the moment!

"Ahem! Ladies and gentlemen, the moon is shining, the festival is on schedule, and the scholars on the shore are still waiting to announce the reward! ”

Interrupted by him, the old men came back to their senses. When I think about it, the meaning of what I just thought about is too deep and too wide, and it is not something that can be understood in a while.

"Haha! What Zizhan said is very true, you old guys have forgotten their priorities for a while! ”

After Old Lady Xu came back to his senses, he came directly to such a sentence, which made people cry and laugh, as if he had not fallen into the silence just now.

Huan Zhiwu shook his head and smiled, ignoring Old Lady Xu's joke that was not a joke. He said, "Then announce the reward!" ”

Wu Bai is actually still a little confused, this Mid-Autumn Festival belongs to the other two big clans, it stands to reason that the reward should be agreed upon by them, these old men just break the rules, is it really good?

He didn't believe that these old guys didn't think about this problem, and since these old men didn't mention it, they must have their own reasons.

The waiting servants gathered together the rewards that the elders had brought out, and a great man stood on the bow of the painting boat and read to the scholars and literati on the shore.
