Chapter 20 Engaging in Economy
Luo Xiuyuan pretended to concentrate on tasting tea, but secretly caught a glimpse of Lu Chengkong bowing his head and saying nothing, he was surprised in his heart, and secretly thought: "He really changed his mind today, and when he heard Yin Zhengyi belittled the "Lu Sheng's Art of War", why didn't he open his mouth to refute?" So he rolled his eyes, put down the teacup, straightened his cuffs, and said with a smile: "Brother Lu, you haven't come to Simen to study these days, and Mr. is a little unhappy." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info but ......" Luo Xiuyuan's smile became stronger and stronger, and then said: "Brother Lu, you have outstanding literary talents, presumably you can cope with next year's imperial examination without coming to the four schools." Let's just say that this policy of governing the country, Brother Lu must have a high opinion, say it to us, okay? ”
Yin Zhengyi and Gu Yuansheng also calmed down after hearing Luo Xiuyuan's words, and turned to look at Lu Chengkong.
As soon as Lu Chengkong heard Luo Xiuyuan speak, he felt uncomfortable, and in the face of such a person with words, his heart was indescribably disgusted. He just shook his head, didn't bother to look at Luo Xiuyuan, and said, "I don't understand these big truths you are talking about, what are the strategies for governing the country. ”
"Brother Lu is too modest." Luo Xiu saw Lu Chengkong's weakness, and said with a smug smile: "From the point of view, although the book "Lu Sheng's Art of War" is used by the world as an after-dinner pleasure, Brother Lu is talented, and he will definitely be able to understand the way to govern the country from it, but he doesn't want to tell us about it, hey, ......" said, and couldn't help sighing.
Although he still can't figure out the relationship with Luo Xiuyuan, just with these few secretly provocative words, Lu Chengkong has already felt his hostility, and the two should have made an enmity. Since yesterday's drinking allergy, Lu Chengkong has been convinced that he has the same name, the same appearance, the same body, the same physique, and the same body as himself in this world, plus he has occupied his body, and has gradually entered the role of this world. He endured Luo Xiuyuan again and again, but the more he tolerated it, the more he found that the other party had to make inches. No matter what world he was in, Lu Chengkong didn't want to suffer such an inexplicable wretchedness, he raised his head, carefully looked at the high-flying and domineering boy in front of him, and said, "Do you really want to listen to me?" ”
Luo Xiu saw that his provocation had worked, and he couldn't hide the smugness on his face, so he bowed, glanced at Yin Zhengyi and Gu Yuansheng, and said, "I'll listen to you." ”
Yin Zhengyi knew that Luo Xiuyuan and Lu Chengkong had always been at odds, and Lu Chengkong was by no means Luo Xiuyuan's opponent in terms of knowledge and eloquence, although he saw that Luo Xiuyuan was going to deliberately embarrass Lu Chengkong, but he couldn't stop Luo Xiuyuan's secret intrigue, so he had to look at the two helplessly and shook his head.
The more Lu Chengkong listened, the more upset he felt, and he didn't bother to care which world he was in, in short, he couldn't bear the grievances of the person in front of him in vain, straightened up, picked up the teacup on the table, and after drinking it all, he glanced at Luo Xiuyuan and said: "I have learned the law of governing the country, but I only know a little about it, but it is just ...... It's just ......" Speaking of this, Lu Chengkong also deliberately sold Guanzi.
"But what?" Luo Xiuyuan thought that Lu Chengkong was clearly not as knowledgeable as himself, and wanted to find the bottom of the stairs, and the smug smile on his face became a little heavier.
Lu Chengkong wrote lightly: "Although it's just a surface, it's just that, I'm afraid that if I say it, Brother Luo, you may not understand." ”
As soon as he said this, Yin Zhengyi and Gu Yuansheng both looked at Lu Chengkong in surprise. Luo Xiuyuan is a person who can be literate and martial, and his father Luo Tian is the Guoyi Lieutenant of Zhichong Mansion, an official from the fifth grade. Although the official rank is not high, he has a deep background. Luo Xiuyuan has been very small-minded since he was a child, and he can't tolerate people, and everyone is used to it, and they tolerate him everywhere. Lu Chengkong's family background is far inferior to Luo Xiuyuan, and his father Lu Liang is only the head of the Yingxian Military Government, and there are ten people in the Military Government. Lu Liang's father-in-law served as the chief bookkeeper in Ying County before his death, and when he saw that Lu Liang was kind and upright, he married his daughter to him.
When Lu Liang was young, he was full of charlatans, bold and chivalrous. After getting married, he relied on his father-in-law's relationship to enter the military government. When Lu Chengkong was ten years old, his wife died, and Lu Liang raised him alone. The Lu family has been a medium-sized gateway in Yingxian County for generations, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing. In Lu Liang's generation, only he gave birth to a son among the three siblings, and Lu Chengkong can be regarded as the only incense in the Lu family.
On weekdays, although Lu Chengkong and Luo Xiuyuan are at odds in the dark, due to the disparity in their family backgrounds, they will still be respectful and respectful on the surface, and they will never tear their faces.
Luo Xiuyuan didn't expect that Lu Chengkong would be abnormal today, confronting himself face to face, his face instantly became cold, and said, "Oh? I want to hear it, Brother Lu is sick in bed these days, and he can still understand what kind of clever plan for governing the country. ”
"It's easy to govern the country or something." Lu Chengkong is a typical exam-oriented education student, for the college entrance examination, those big truths in the books are not less memorized, he ignored the surprised expressions of a few people, and said nonsense: "Where the country is governed, it is enough to use only one sentence, that is, to take economic construction as the center." ”
"Economic...... Economic construction? After Yin Zhengyi heard this, he looked puzzled.
Gu Yuansheng frowned slightly, and asked in a hurry: "Lu Xiaoyou, the old man has heard of the words 'economic construction' for the first time, can you say it in detail." ”
Lu Chengkong saw Luo Xiuyuan's silent expression, and his heart suddenly became satisfied, but he relaxed and continued to talk nonsense: "Economic construction, to put it bluntly, is to engage in the economy, the economy is good, the people and the country are rich, that is, what you call the country is rich and the people are strong, so that everyone is happy?" ”
"Economy?" Yin Zhengyi can also be regarded as full of economy, listening to Lu Chengkong's strange words, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help asking: "What...... What is the economy? ”
Lu Chengkong has been in a depressed mood these days, and seeing that Luo Xiuyuan is becoming more and more unpleasant, he decided to treat him in the way of others. He stared at Luo Xiuyuan, whose face was getting paler and paler, and asked deliberately, "Brother Luo, do you understand?" ”
The corners of Luo Xiuyuan's mouth curled slightly, and a sneer appeared on his face, and said, "Master Lu, I'm afraid that few people can understand these strange words of yours." ”
"I knew you didn't understand, but you wanted me to say it." Lu Chengkong shook his head and continued: "I learned these good ways to govern the country when I was more than ten years old. Since you don't understand the economy, have you ever heard of productivity? ”
Luo Xiuyuan clenched his fists, gradually released them, took a deep breath, and replied: "Master Lu, if I understand correctly, you just deliberately said some strange words. ”
Lu Chengkong was still taken aback by Luo Xiuyuan's quick reaction, and said secretly in his heart: "I am not your opponent in the competition and martial arts, but if you want to compare with me, you ancient people are a little more tender." He just smiled slightly: "Brother Luo, tell me what productivity is." ”
Luo Xiuyuan had never fallen behind in front of Lu Chengkong, and after thinking for a while, he had a clue in his heart and said: "The word economy in your mouth should come from the Book of Jin, which actually means to help the people through the world." Productivity, on the other hand, should refer to the amount of grain that peasant households can produce every year. ”
Yin Zhengyi nodded and said, "I also remember that the economy should be the economy, the country, the world, and the people." ”
Gu Yuansheng knew Luo Xiuyuan's family background and temperament, and said: "Although Lu Xiaoyou's words are peculiar, they can get to the point, especially governing the country, which is to engage in the economy, and the economy also involves productive forces. And the first time Luo Gongzi heard about it, he could know the source, and his knowledge was even more admirable to the old man. ”
Luo Xiu's foresight once again gained the upper hand in the debate with Lu Chengkong, and he looked proud, and said: "Lu Gongzi, could it be that these good prescriptions for governing the country of yours are really realized from this book of "Lu Sheng's Art of War", which is a pleasure after dinner?" ”
Lu Chengkong glanced at Luo Xiuyuan, waved his hand and said, "The word economy, how can it be so simple?" There is a sentence in the book, which one I remember, which book is it? Speaking of this, he couldn't help scratching his head and said: "No matter which book he writes, that is, the economic base determines the superstructure, and the superstructure reacts to the economic base." ”
"Superstructure?" Yin Zhengyi only felt that although every word Lu Chengkong said in front of him seemed weird, it was extremely accurate, and it was difficult for him to understand the meaning.
"These aren't words I'm pretending to be weird and nonsense." Lu Chengkong smiled secretly in his heart: "In the future, if you can live for a long time and live to be thousands of years old, you will naturally learn." Without waiting for a few people to react, he continued: "Productivity, not only people-oriented, have you ever thought that one day, people do not have to plough the land themselves, there are other ways? Also, the word reaction force, you must not understand it, this involves physics. ”
"What does Lu Xiaoyou mean by using livestock to plough the land?" Gu Yuansheng also felt confused when he heard it.
"A machine, a machine, can replace a group of people."
"Machines?" Luo Xiuyuan found that even if he had read all the books in his life in his head at this moment, he had never heard this word.
"Brother Luo, haven't you heard of this word?" Lu Chengkong sat up straight, with a serious face.
Luo Xiuyuan's expression was a little flustered, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Then bother Lu Gongzi, tell me what a machine is." ”
Lu Chengkong snorted coldly in his nose, and said secretly in his heart: "Let you look like a gentleman, and let you speak yin and yang!" But he said: "Don't say it, don't say it, even if I say more, I'm afraid that Brother Luo won't understand." ”
Luo Xiuyuan heard that Lu Chengkong was laughing at his shallow knowledge, his face instantly turned pale, a trace of chill flashed in his eyes, he looked at Lu Chengkong coldly, and said, "Brother Lu, what do you mean by this!" ”
"Chengkong, how can you be so rude?" Yin Zhengyi didn't expect Luo Xiuyuan to fall in front of Lu Chengkong, he knew in his heart that these two people were having a holiday, and persuaded: "Xiuyuan, don't be angry, presumably Chengkong must have recovered from a serious illness and his mind is not stable." ”
Luo Xiuyuan's face turned pale, and he glared at Lu Chengkong angrily, and he didn't speak.
Lu Chengkong let out the evil anger in his chest, but stood up in no hurry, and said secretly in his heart: "I'm a person in the future, will I be afraid that you won't succeed?" After putting away the book of "Lu Sheng's Art of War" on the table, he bowed to a few people with his fists in his hands, and said, "Gu Ye, Brother Yin, Brother Luo, I am not feeling well, and I am going home now." Next time I have time, I'll discuss with you how to govern the country and take my leave! With that, he turned around and ran out of the teahouse quickly.
Gu Yuansheng first looked at Lu Chengkong's disappearing figure, then looked back at Luo Xiuyuan, who was sulking, and then remembered the strange words that Lu Chengkong said just now, and said secretly in his heart: "This kid, how did he become so interesting?" ”
