When Huang Zongxi was looking for a fishing boat to go to Taizhou in a small fishing village near the Ningbo area, he thought in advance that he might have to pay the boatman some more silver taels because there were pirates there.

But who knew that the captain of the fishing boat agreed not to say anything, and the money of the boat was not expensive.

Huang Zongxi couldn't help but ask why this was the case.

The captain whispered: "Sir, we all know in private that they are not pirates, they are members of the Hantang Group, they have been in Taiwan for three or four years, they like to do business with others, and they are very fair."

I happened to bring some dried fish with me this time, and I was thinking of exchanging some refined salt, candy, matches, and other items with them, and when I came back, I might be able to make a small profit in addition to my own use. ”

Huang Zongxi fell into deep thought after hearing this, these things that ordinary fishermen know, he didn't even know in the Dragon and Tiger Thatched Cottage all these years - the match thing, he had used it, it was extremely convenient, and he did write the word "match" on the box.

It's a pity why I didn't dig into it at that time, I'm afraid that I found out the foundation of the Hantang Group early!

The captain misunderstood his contemplation and said, "Sir, don't be afraid of fishy smells, although the Hantang Group has a fair business, it is also very picky about the goods.

What I brought this time was all high-grade dried fish, although the fishy smell was a little, but it was dried thoroughly, and the taste was definitely not big. ”

Huang Zongxi didn't want to find a misunderstanding, but just smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

There was nothing to say all the way, and they took advantage of the northerly wind and arrived at the sea near Taizhou with familiarity.

His students were starting to get nervous, hearing that they were pirates.

Huang Zongxi gently patted the student's shoulder and whispered: "Knowledge and action are one, don't do it because you don't know; Miscellaneous feelings, don't forget that a qiē is from the heart. ”

His student slowly calmed down, thought for a moment, and said, "The student is taught." ”

Huang Zongxi's bronzed face showed a smile, but because his face was too thin, the smile was full of folds.

Waving his thin arms like hemp rods, he pointed to the surging sea and said, "The heart is the same!" Although we are now a mustard in the sea, how do we know that the sea is also a spring in our hearts? ”

The man was thin, his voice was still very loud, and the salty and fishy sea breeze blew his words everywhere.

Watching him row on the side of the boat, the captain avoided him far away, this is a pool of spring water?! Isn't it crazy that you're going to jump down in a while, right?!

But the tragedy did not happen, and they finally approached the mouth of the Taizhou River.

Then they saw a strange ship coming towards them like an offboard arrow, and the white waves rolled on its bow, but it had no sails!

The captain and the sailor immediately lowered the sails together, without hesitation, when they heard a loud voice from the strange ship: "Lower the sails, stop where you are, and wait for inspection!" ”

It's just their inspection.

Huang Zongxi heard that the loud voice was a Taizhou accent.

His student was a little trembling at this time, Huang Zongxi put his hand on the student's shoulder, and said, "The qi of all things has its own reason, don't panic, look at it slowly." ”

His students could see clearly that it was a ship with a tall chimney, and that sparks occasionally appeared from the chimney!

When the ship came near, it was possible to see several sailors dressed in the same way, and their clothes seemed to be clinging to their bodies, and they looked strange.

A man in a strange round hat, with one foot on the side of the ship, bowed his head and shouted at them, "Who are you waiting for?" Where did it come from? What do you want to do? ”

The captain honestly explained everything.

I saw that the man glanced at it, and after seeing Huang Zongxi's teachers and students, he didn't look at them again, these were two literati, thin and small.

He shook his head at his sailor, and saw two sailors deftly jump to the ship, and they opened the lid of the bilge, and one jumped into the bilge, and after a while the sailor came out, and he made a strange gesture to the man, and made a circle with his index finger and thumb, and the other three fingers up.

At this time, I only heard the man say: "Oh, you can go up, but you can't dock at the military dock, there is a clear sign there, if there is a collision, don't blame us for not warning in advance." ”

Huang Zongxi gently stroked his beard on the side, and watched quietly, these inspections did not ask for bribes or take away the goods, they were really for inspection!

It's not ordinary, it's not ordinary.

The captain raised the sails again, and set sail again in the crosswind.

Huang Zongxi pointed to the stern of the strange ship that drove away, and said to the students: "You see, there are inexplicably waves rolling there, and there must be a mechanism of action underwater.

They soon arrived at the Taizhou wharf, which was much more lively than ever, with many tall sea boats moored at the wharf.

There were people coming and going on the docks, but most of them were dressed the same way, but in two colors.

They carefully docked the boat in a more remote place, and Huang Zongxi led his students to part with the captain.

The captain smiled and said, "Sir, you can take the hat off, the people here don't care what your hair looks like." ”

Huang Zongxi has always insisted on not shaving his hair, and this is also the reason, he hid in the Dragon and Tiger Thatched Cottage, and this time he came out, and he had to wear a big hat.

He happily took off his hat, and his eyes were immediately clear.

When the two of them appeared in Taizhou City, another strangely dressed person claiming to be a patrol officer came to question them, and they all answered truthfully, and no one came to embarrass them again.

The city of Taizhou is now completely new, far cleaner and tidier than it is in my impression.

The two of them walked casually at first, and found that people were in a hurry now, but there was no panic on their faces, but most of them were smiling and groaning.

That's good.

So they went to a house, which was the home of one of his students.

After the name was announced, the student was not at home, but his old father was at home and went out to meet him himself.

The two chatted over tea in the study.

His students went to the Taizhou government to do errands, responsible for the drafting and writing of some proclamations, and some literati did the same.

It is a good thing to appoint virtuous officials as officials, Huang Zongxi nodded silently.

Many Shangguan originally had a good policy, but it was precisely because of the deliberate misreading of the petty officials that they caused great suffering to the common people, and they must not be overlooked.

The old father said, "Sir is erudite and talented, but I can't figure out what the positions of 'intern' and 'temporary worker' are?" ”

Huang Zongxi thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid it's the official name of the Hantang Group, how to call it, it doesn't matter, it will be clear what they are doing-"

The old father said: "Mr. is talented, so I can rest assured, the dog is sometimes engaged in the affairs of Confucius, and sometimes in the affairs of the secretary, all at the mercy of Manager Ma and Stationmaster Guo, I am afraid that they will be deliberately promoted and appointed." ”

Huang Zongxi smiled, but asked about the defeat of the Tartars.

The old father said: "The old man is stupid, and the dog has business to do, so I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while." I took my husband to the teahouse to sit down, there is a storyteller, and he spoke very wonderfully, if there is any untruth, I will add, what does the gentleman think? ”

Huang Zongxi was fascinated by firearms and agreed at that time.

Huang Zongxi once opposed a single imperial examination and advocated the use of multiple channels to recruit talents, and the system to prevent the children of high-ranking officials from relying on the power of their elders to defeat the commoners in an improper way in the recruitment process.

In this way, the recruitment of talents has been expanded, including small officials, people who can calculate the calendar, music rhythm, measurement, fortune telling, firearms, water conservancy, etc., and those who write and talk about things, and so on.

In this time of war, he also made a point of admitting those who were skilled in the manufacture of firearms - but who listened to him? Sometimes he doesn't even listen to King Lu!

He had a vague knowledge of firearms, but he was bitter that he could not develop them.

Huang Zongxi is not a nerd-like character, he also mixed up when he was young, or called any ranger.

His father, Huang Zunsu, Wanli Jinshi, Zhongguan Yushi of the Apocalypse, and a member of the Donglin Party, was cut from his post and returned to his hometown for impeaching Wei Zhongxian, and was soon imprisoned and tortured to death.

In the first year of Chongzhen (1628), Wei Zhongxian, Cui Chengxiu, etc. were removed, and the unjust case of the Tianqi Dynasty was rehabilitated.

Huang Zongxi wrote to Xu Xianchun, Cui Yingyuan, etc., who were the remnants of the eunuch party. In May, the Criminal Department was tried, appeared in court to testify, stabbed Xu Xianchun in the middle of his sleeve, beat Cui Yingyuan in public, and pulled out his must be sacrificed to his father's spirit!

When he arrived at the teahouse, he and the old father drank tea and listened to books.

The storyteller is really eloquent, and he said that several battles in the Taizhou area were like fairy fights in fantasy novels, and he slapped the awake wood into a crackle.

Wonderful is wonderful, but sometimes it's too exaggerated?

Huang Zongxi often looked at the old father, and the old father sometimes nodded in approval, and sometimes corrected a few points in a low voice.

This shocked Huang Zongxi to sweat, his heart beat hard, and he wanted to shout, ah, I found an object to restrain the Tartars! All things in the world are mutually reinforcing, and this is reasonable! The unity of qi and reason, this is the great righteousness!

He shivered and spilled all the tea on the straight, and it was at the base of his thigh, as if he had urinated.

He didn't pay any attention to it at the time, but listened attentively.

The old father peeked at it, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, I peeked at them fighting, but I was really scared!

After the two listened, Huang Zongxi gave the storyteller a reward.

Of course, he can leave after listening, in the teahouse, the tea money is the tea money, and the reward after listening to the book is the book money, which is the only income of the storyteller.

Where will Huang Zongxi be the person who doesn't want to force his face?

He insisted on going to the market, and the old father led him.

The prices in the vegetable market are cheap, and they are even compared with those in Wanli!

The old father said proudly: "I didn't expect that the food in the Hantang Group is very cheap, but the supplies are too expensive!" ”

In the evening, when his students got off work, they were surprised to hear that the teacher was coming, and immediately greeted them with a big bow.

In the evening, they set up a family banquet to entertain the teacher.

Huang Zongxi stroked his beard and listened to his students slowly talk about what the Hantang Group was doing in Taizhou.

(Reason is the law and law of all things, and qi is the actual objective thing)

Thanks to the support of old friends yezhongye, alliance leader guozhiyin, book friend 19630508, cmd19764, and welcome the arrival of new friends insect eagles.

There is also a shift in the evening.
