Chapter 228: Good Day
On the sixth day of the fifth month of the first year of the Apocalypse, this day is a day with refreshing weather. For most of the turbulent half year of the Ming Dynasty, its freshness seems to be particularly beautiful today, because this refreshing has lasted for more than half a month.
Beijing in May is the beginning of spring and early summer, and this time of year is also the most lively time in Beijing, because this time is the season when officials report on their work and students enter Beijing to change businesses in spring and winter.
Compared with Beijing in the past, this year is more lively, but it has been in the middle of summer! But there are three main culprits for this situation; This first is the golden science ceremony of the first year of the apocalypse, the first branch of the Son of Heaven is naturally the first branch of the Son of Heaven to choose and educate talents, it is a great opportunity to get ahead, and there are many people who come here. The second is the early imperial decree of the Son of Heaven, the princes and nobles of the world must push a child into Beijing to face the saint, and the saint must re-teach the aristocratic etiquette Zhang Xian Zhu Ming upstart, and now these noble children have gradually entered Beijing. This third is the Son of Heaven's formulation of the special economic zone, which attracted the attention of the vast number of business travel groups in the Ming Dynasty, and those who were able to more or less form a business group to go to Beijing to investigate.
It is these three things that have caused the floating population in Beijing to increase dozens of times almost instantaneously. Today's capital is also very different from the past, the biggest difference is not the ever-changing buildings, but the obvious change in everyone's living habits.
The pace of life of people in Beijing today is obviously very different from before. It is said that the rampant use of four-wheeled horse-drawn carriages has greatly changed the inconvenience of two-wheeled carriages, so that the application of vehicles has been greatly strengthened, and Li Jiancheng has taken the opportunity to form a public transportation network, which he has successfully reduced the spatial distance between people in the city. This makes the range of motion of people who go out every day several times larger than before. Don't underestimate this improvement. You must know that this little bit of improvement Li Jiancheng has obtained several times the previous economic market value. In addition, he also opened a wide range of newspapers to further improve the amount of information about people's lives, which in turn brought the spirit of the people in the city closer.
The proximity of spiritual information is a very progressive event in the form of social civilization, and the unity of information content makes spiritual information synchronized, which is a main criterion for the development of modern society. Moreover, Li Jiancheng promotes this kind of progress, which can also make everyone who approaches this city feel obvious vitality, which is a kind of obvious charm of developing city life, it is like Shanghai in the eighties of the last century, it has the brilliance of pearls, making people feel progress and development.
This brilliance is different from what it is today in the 21st century. The current city is more like a floating city after the ideal has been exhausted, the shortening of the distance is more like a distance, and the amount of information in the sky is the same as knowing and not knowing. This made Li Jiancheng aware of one thing, it seems that there is a difference of more than 400 years, but some situations are surprisingly consistent, people still live in their circle, 400 years ago, the people knew one thing and were powerless to change it, and now it is still impossible to change, which has to make people think deeply In addition to material abundance, where have we progressed in 400 years?
The horn lightly folded the fan, Li Jiancheng looked at the current prosperity of the capital with a smiling face, and couldn't help but feel a little confused. The melancholy feelings can't hide his depression, because by his side, Ye Congfeng, the son of the wind who has more temperament and posture than him, and in addition to the two jade-faced sons Xinlan and Ling Xue who are disguised as men. From a distance, the appearance of this team is the lowest. Li Jiancheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, whether he could play happily anymore.
Seems to sense his mood. Xinlan covered her mouth and laughed: "Li Gongzi doesn't seem to be in high spirits today!" β
Xinlan, this girl is still exciting, and Ling Xue, who has not been on the street for a long time, seems to be particularly interested today, and looks around the street with some novelty after changing her ice and snow posture.
As far as you are concerned, Li Jiancheng glanced at her and said: "Of course, thinking about the fact that the people of my people today are the same as those of four hundred years later, there is no great essential progress, do you think I can still be happy?" β
Li Jiancheng's words came out of the sky, which made Xinlan's pretty face stunned, but she seemed to have long been accustomed to the other party's jumping, and she smiled again: "Heh, I didn't know that Li Gongzi had this kind of talent before and after." β
This girl was quite playful one after the other, and Li Jiancheng snorted when she heard it: "How can you be careful about how you can measure my talent like a sea." Sue sΓΉ you, this world is either moving forward or regressing, at most there is a pause, what is forward? Forward, especially the progress of a social form, it has a 'social cognitive disorder', which is also called a 'social cognitive disorder', to put it bluntly, it is not clear. For example, if you say that a woman's foot binding is a bad social habit, everyone says that the three-inch golden lotus is beautiful, but that refers to the natural beauty, what is it to break the root of the heel? This is completely a perverted act, completely the current men's persecution demand for women's perverted psychology, from the value of social composition women occupy half of human society, which means that they can provide half of the production value to the society. Let's put it this way, if the women of my Ming Dynasty can be as equal to men as men, then I will be able to double the national strength out of thin air, but social and ethical values persecute women, making it impossible for the country to use this half of the power. This is an obvious 'social cognitive barrier', which is obviously beneficial to the country as a whole, but it is unable to progress due to the social cognitive barrier, which forms the cognitive limit of a society as a whole.
The long-term failure to advance the limits of social cognition is even more dangerous to society itself. For example, those social bad habits that have a view of beauty, that is a kind of beauty that has been distorted by the will of human beings themselves, this kind of beauty is a kind of expression of the unsound heart of the society as a whole, and the real beauty should be recognized by everyone, but do you ask those children who have broken their feet about this beauty? It is not only the children who have been removed, but also the sympathy and love of the world, all of which have been distorted by the limits of social cognition.
So how hard is it to progress! That is not a realm that can be achieved by reading a book and reading a person, and it is impossible to rely on a system and a new thing to make the world move forward. Do you think about the great differences and progress of the national society in the thousands of years since the saints? If you look at how many bad habits have been circulating in today's society for many years, you will know how long it has been since the current society has not progressed, so that it will be clear what it will be like in 400 years. β
As soon as Li Jiancheng's words were finished, before Xinlan could reflect, someone first applauded: "Brother Li is talented, and his words break through the obstacles, and he is the best in ancient and modern times, and Lu admires and admires him." β
The voice of the person who came was very cheerful, but Li Jiancheng heard that Lu Xiangsheng, Wen Zhenmeng, and Ni Yuanlu had already arrived, and Li Jiancheng laughed back: "You're polite, polite, it's always good if you haven't seen you for many days." β
Ye Congfeng, Ling Xuemi, and Xinlan also said hello to the three of them, and the three of them all knew Ye Congfeng and knew Ling Xuemi, and this time there was another female companion and men's Xinlan was also tacit. After saying hello, Wen Zhenmeng said: "Brother Li is worried, I will be fine, now is a good time, I have to listen to Brother Li's wonderful arguments, it is really shocking and itchy, just for my brother to know a good place, why not go for a drink and have a long talk." β
"That's very good." Li Jiancheng replied happily, so the seven of them turned around and left the lively street, and entered a teahouse with a name changed to 'Tianxiang Pavilion'. But this Tianxiang Pavilion is really an extraordinary place, Li Jiancheng can smell a faint ink fragrance as soon as he enters the teahouse, as the ink fragrance slowly goes upstairs Fang Jue's ears are noisy and gradually go away, Li Jiancheng pedals the stairs upstairs to the top, just came up, but suddenly there was a scene of spring breeze Li Jiancheng's eyes lit up, only to see the pattern in front of him The ladder is longitudinal, and the interval is like the rural terraces and like a small square with different mosaics, which makes people feel deep and quiet! People go in and look inside, in these lattices, you can see a wide and heavy agarwood table, and there are unique wooden chairs and round stools next to the table, and there are exquisite tea sets on the table to lay inkstone and ink rice paper, which is really a good picture scroll and bookish fragrance.
There is really a feeling of being out of the world, and in this bustling city, there is a deep chic view of the secluded mountains, Li Jiancheng exclaimed: "It's really a good place!" β
Wen Zhenmeng smiled and said nothing, took the lead in asking for a seat, and the people followed and sat down, and the first one was higher than the seat, and there was really a feeling of nomadic countryside, this feeling just came out Li Jiancheng thought of this pattern, it seemed familiar, he remembered where he had seen it, Li Jiancheng peeked at Ling Xue suspiciously, but saw that she put her hand on a flower carving on the tea party, Li Jiancheng suddenly looked at the trademark in the teahouse, it turned out to be his own industry, no wonder he was so dusty and as high-grade as him Li Jiancheng, At such an instant, Li Jiancheng relaxed as if he was at home.
After a cup of tea, Ni Yuanlu took the lead in speaking: "It is really shocking to hear what Brother Li said, but Brother Li will be careful to talk about it in the future!" β
Li Jiancheng just picked up the teacup, but when he heard this, he was a little confused and said, "Oh? Why is that? β
Ni Yuanlu glanced at Wen Zhenmeng when he saw his appearance, and then said to Li Jiancheng: "Brother Li's preface is indeed exquisite, but the latter remark involves the social ethics of the Three Principles and the Five Constants. β
As soon as Li Jiancheng heard this, his words really meant to question the leadership and question the society, and no one dared to shout about this even in the 21 st century, let alone the people of this era? But who is the rule-maker here, who called him Li Jiancheng the emperor? Li Jiancheng shook his folding fan lightly and said suddenly: "Brother Xie Ni reminded that it is true that Meng Lang does not know the trouble coming out of his mouth. Then let's talk about progress and cognition, speaking of this, we have to consult Brother Ye, Brother Ye is a celebrity around the emperor, there should be a lot of progress and cognition! Tell everyone about it."
