No. 430 Longevity

The 430th longevity

It's actually a good thing that the concept is constantly being reformed.

Before omniscience and omnipotence, there was no eternal truth, only relative truth. Only by constantly changing the concept can we hope to continuously adapt to the direction of future productive forces, and then benefit the country and the nation. If an idea is born and the path of change is cut off, no matter how advanced it once was, it will gradually be swept into the trash by time, becoming both ignorant and backward. Think about it, in the real world in 2016, if a certain country and a certain religion still adhere to the rules and regulations built 2,000 years ago, can it have a good future?

With Wei Dongsheng's knowledge, he can guide the development of humanity to the level of 2016 or the Shadow Empire at most.

What will the world look like after 2016?

What kind of social structure will the carbon-based Life Alliance, the Empire of Tomorrow, which are more advanced than the Shadow Empire, be?

Wei Dongsheng doesn't know.

Wei Dongsheng humbly looked to the future, how dare he declare that he had mastered the eternal truth?

In this case, how to evaluate the historical evolution from the perspective of the immortal species?

Wei Dongsheng has not straightened out his thoughts for the time being.

In other words, Wei Dongsheng has not yet built the values that are suitable for immortality.

When Kong Qiu was able to live forever and witness the changes from Han Confucianism to Tang Confucianism, Song Confucianism to Yuan Confucianism, and Ming Confucianism to Qing Confucianism, how would he view these juniors who acted under his banner? When Zhu Yuanzhang can live forever and see with his own eyes, he will see the Battle of Jingyan, the change of Tumubao, the change of Jiashen, the chaos of the Southern Ming Dynasty, etc., how will he view his descendants? When Marx is able to live forever, how will he view the innovations of Lenin, Stalin, and the first, second, and third generations of China?

Wei Dongsheng is now practicing such longevity.

After all, the real world and the world of another space are two completely different time and space, and even if Wei Dongsheng starts the geographical discovery in advance, he can't erase the scars of the real world. In terms of the theory that history is history, Wei Dongsheng's repetition of the great geographical discoveries of Western Europe does not have much practical significance, and it is impossible for the inferior Tomorrow Ring to be idle and bored to make up for the regret of the century that the Zhu Ming Dynasty missed the Great Voyage Age for the Chinese people. Inferior Tomorrow Ring is an educational product, even if it simulates the world six hundred years ago, it should be so that Wei Dongsheng can look forward with history as a mirror and gradually complete the construction of the immortal value system.

Compared with the constant repetition of real-world historical events such as the Great Geographical Discoveries and the Reformation Movement, Wei Dongsheng felt that it might be more positive to witness the evolution of the Wei Xia Empire as the founding Taizu of the People's Republic of China.

One should look forward.

There is no point in stopping and going around in circles in the past.

If it is regrettable that the Zhu Ming Dynasty missed the Age of Discovery, it should keep up with the pace of the times and look to the future, and smash the shackles of thinking that shackle the "Great Geographical Discoveries of the New Era". Preventing regrets from happening again is the real lesson of history.

Wei Dongsheng thinks so and is ready to do so.

Back to the topic of housekeeper Liu Lianggen's evil slave bullying.

Liu Lianggen is both rampant and cunning, and he doesn't seem to have any brains or even bother to do it, but in fact, he lays traps without leaking. Although Wei Dongsheng didn't care about the so-called family business of more than 300 acres of fertile land, he didn't allow treacherous people like Liu Lianggen to step on his head and run rampant.

How to quickly punish Liu Lianggen?

Wei Dongsheng has a worry-free way to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle.

The next day, Wei Dongsheng visited Wu Qihua without Jiang Shengxing, and asked him to help guarantee that he would sell more than 300 acres of fertile land and other family businesses at one time. Although Wu Qihua despised Wei Dongsheng's ruined family in his heart, he also remembered that Wei Dongsheng was a model for the Wu family to reform the Jiaozhi Domain, and did his best to contact buyers with high credibility for Wei Dongsheng.

That's right, Wei Dongsheng's counterattack strategy is to sell more than 300 acres of fertile land.

Without more than 300 acres of fertile land and family business, how can Liu Lianggen hollow out the Wei family? In order to punish Liu Lianggen, Wei Dongsheng also specially instructed the buyer: "Liu Lianggen bullied me when I was young in the past, and I have always been arrogant and domineering, and the Wei family has simply become the Liu family." If you can vent your anger for me and send Liu Lianggen to prison and beat the board, I am willing to pay two hundred taels of silver cheaper. ”

The buyers are also large landowners, and the clan blood relatives are prosperous, and there are many people available. Even if Wei Dongsheng did not instruct, the buyer had to dismiss or demote Liu Lianggen and other domestic servants and replace them with his own domestic servants. Considering the face of the Wu family's guarantee, and considering the indirect employment fee of two hundred taels of silver, the buyer readily agreed. And because the landlord class has always been disgusted with the slave who betrays the master, the buyer even made a promise in the same tone of hatred: "Rest assured, good brother, I will make this evil slave regret coming to this world." ”

The worries of evil slaves and bullying their masters are over.

Wei Dongsheng didn't need to waste time and Liu Lianggen to intrigue with him, he could use the hands of buyers to teach him a hard lesson.

Of course, this strategy also has a very bad impact.

Under the feudal economic system, land was not only a guarantee of wealth, but also a guarantee of social status. Aside from the fiefdom aristocracy, the salaries and proceeds of embezzlement were often used to buy land. Maritime or land merchants made money and bought a large amount of land in their hometowns or places of habitual residence; Even if the Shengdou people happen to have floating wealth, they will buy land. Official positions cannot be passed down to families, and business skills are difficult to pass on to families, and only this land is a wealth that can be passed down from generation to generation. In a word, the phenomenon of land annexation criticized by real-world textbooks is the ultimate dream sought after by the whole people at the moment.

In the context of this kind of public opinion, those who buy land are successful people who have built their families, and those who sell land are the unworthy descendants of ruined families. Wei Dongsheng gave up the fame of the country's son and the eunuch, and sold more than 300 acres of ancestral fertile land, which can be said to be a loser to the extreme. For a time, Wei Dongsheng became a famous loser in the Longbian Mansion.

At the same time, Wei Dongsheng gradually became a special case of yearning for the sea: there is such a shadow prison student, he would rather abandon his family and business than sail to the sea.

Wu Qihua took advantage of the trend to promote the charm and hope of the ocean, which indirectly made Wei Dongsheng's position as the deputy envoy of the Yue Guo study tour group more and more stable. As for the management skills of the business leaders of the Spring and Autumn Period, the founding emperor of Wei Xia, and the king of the Jin Kingdom, Wei Dongsheng can also calmly complete the work of the deputy envoy of the Yue Guo Study Tour Group, and quickly become the leader of the Yue Guo Study Tour Group.

Before going north to the Yue Kingdom, the brothers Shiyan and Shiliang suddenly visited Wei Dongsheng.

Compared with the banquet in Ansuoyuan, the Shiyan and Shiliang brothers were much haggard, and their pupils were filled with a dazed feeling of not knowing what to do.

Why the two brothers are so down, Wei Dongsheng has also heard about it.

First of all, Shi Yan, who thought that the reputation of the prisoner was as easy as exploring the bag to get something, recently suffered a setback in his life and was shocked to fall off the list by a few tens. In other words, the Jiaozhi Domain's Supervision Examination Co., Ltd. inherited the regulations formulated by Wei Dongsheng, and mainly examined three subjects: Confucianism (literature), arithmetic (mathematics), and general knowledge (comprehensive arts and sciences). Shiyan and Shiliang brothers were born in the family of the eunuchs, Confucianism is their strength, common sense is not weak, and the shortcomings are only in arithmetic. Unexpectedly, the test results disappointed Shiyan, and he almost failed the strong Confucianism subject, which led to the comprehensive score falling to Sun Shan.

It doesn't matter if you make a mistake, you can take the test again next year.

What do you think, Shiyan's father suddenly changed again, and he was forced to go to the office in advance after only one year of being the prefect. Although Shi Liang's qualification as a shadow supervisor will not be revoked, the Shi family's family situation has plummeted since then, and the high-ranking officials offended by Shi Yan's father have even pressed Shi Yan and Shi Liang's brothers out of breath. As long as that high-ranking official continues to be in the court, the official road of the Shiyan and Shiliang brothers is definitely destined to be full of ups and downs.

The Shiyan and Shiliang brothers can only find another way out.

Shi Liang is okay, and if he studies in Guozijian for four years in a low-key manner, he may be able to usher in a turnaround.

The problem of stone weir is bigger. It is said that the reason why Shi Yan failed in the dominant subjects was because the examiner was a henchman of that high-ranking official. If this is the case, even if Shiyan takes the exam again next year, he may still be picked in the eggs of high-ranking officials and party henchmen, and points will be arbitrarily deducted in the interview process.

In the future, he was locked up by high-ranking officials and henchmen, and Shiyan had no choice but to be lonely and switch to the Wu family.

The Wu family did not deal with that high-ranking official, if Shi Liang could hide under the wings of the Wu family, there would be hope for the four years of Guozijian life and the future career of the eunuch. However, a small prefect like Shi Yan's father, and a small prisoner like Shi Liang, it is impossible for the Viscount Wu family to look at him. After thinking about it, Shiyan decided to participate in Wu Qihua's Yue Guo study tour plan, and met Wu Qihua through Wei Dongsheng's line, and then sacrificed himself to complete Shiliang. With a decision in his heart, Shi Yan's attitude was very sincere: "Brother Xian, please." ”

Wei Dongsheng did not refuse Shiyan.

It's not that Wei Dongsheng has a good impression of Shiyan, or that he wants to work hard to repay Wu Qihua for his job. In fact, on the contrary, Wei Dongsheng looked down on the family business of more than 300 acres of fertile land, and also looked down on the Wu family's family situation represented by Wu Qihua, and even more downspised the temporary position of deputy envoy of the Yue Guo Study Tour. Shi Yan was reluctant to go to study in Yueguo, and Wei Dongsheng was too lazy to force him to go; And now that Shiyan is willing to study in Vietnam, Wei Dongsheng will not deliberately set up obstacles. Wei Dongsheng replied to Shi Yan: "I will add you to the list of study tours now." However, whether you can get Wu Qihua's attention can only rely on yourself. ”

Shi Yan was already very satisfied: "Thank you Brother Xian for taking care of you." ”

As Shi Liang said that day, since Juzi regrettably failed the list, they did not want to change to unreliable navigation halfway. Wei Dongsheng helped Wu Qihua to work in the Longbian Mansion for a long time, and only then did seven unsuccessful children from poor families be shocked by Wei Dongsheng's decision to abandon his fame and sell all his family business, and he hesitated to join the study tour group in Vietnam. In this way, with the addition of Wei Dongsheng and Shiyan, there are only 9 qualified international students in the study tour group. Wu Qihua may have disliked the 9 characters, and temporarily recruited three scholars with a thin foundation, and reluctantly made up a study tour group of 12 international students.

Among the 12 international students, Shi Yan's ability and quality are second only to Wei Dongsheng. After a few days of deliberate currying, Shi Yan became one of Wu Qihua's right-hand men as scheduled, and indirectly made his younger brother Shi Liang also hitchhike with the Wu family.

In this way, until the scheduled date, Wu Qihua took Wei Dongsheng, Shiyan and others to board a merchant ship, and Yang Fan sailed to Yueguo.
