Chapter 369: Carp Island

"It's a little bit worse, what kind of taste?" Tang Chen felt that his clothes were also good, not the kind that was very LO, right?

Zeng Lao smiled: "It's bad for the taste of the brand!"

Tang Chen was stunned: "Brand?"

"Yes, it's the brand. Master Tang, don't be in a hurry to deny this statement, this is indeed helpful. Zeng Lao said seriously, "Take the same clothes as an example, why are the brand clothes so expensive, and the high-imitation is available for dozens of dollars? Not only the brand that people make, but also the design of clothes and the material of the fabric are the best." Buying a brand is not only a matter of taste, but also a matter of comfortable clothing and easy to use. ”

Tang Chen had to admit that Zeng Lao had a point, maybe there was no difference between brand-name clothes and clothes for dozens of yuan on the stall on the surface, but quality and details determine a person's attitude towards life. Some people are practical, some people are happy, but they just do what they can. People pursue "branding" because everything they use is interpreting itself. It can be the quality assurance that the brand represents, the excellent service, the brand spirit and lifestyle that it conveys, and the personalized design style.

There is a passage that says: You buy a cheap dress, you will be happy when you buy it, but it is not comfortable to wear it on your body, and you buy a very expensive dress, although you are very sad when you buy it, but you are always comfortable when you wear it. The reason why a famous brand is a famous brand is not simply the cost of making clothes, but also the cost of design. High-imitation clothes are always high-imitation, can clothes that cost tens of dollars still have the experience of hundreds or even tens of thousands of dollars? This is obviously impossible.

Of course, how much money to buy clothes should be within your means, dress well, be generous and decent, and show your temperament. Tang Chen suddenly remembered an article he had read in college, probably saying that a family suddenly became a nouveau riche, and the hostess of the family was dressed indecently and thought she was fashionable. I'm afraid that others won't know that she is wearing a famous brand, so she will show the brand of her clothes when she goes out. Later, in a few more years, the hostess's taste in clothing has improved a lot, and she will not mix and match indiscriminately, which makes people unbearable to look at directly.

It's like a chubby American woman in the movie "Titanic", her husband made a fortune panning for gold in the West, she dresses up in jewelry, and mingles among the upper class people in the first class, but she doesn't get their full approval. Privately, they all jokingly call her "ne money" with a very subtle look. What is "ne money"? Translated into Chinese, it is roughly somewhere between "nouveau riche" and "upstart". This is reminiscent of the old saying, "It takes three generations to raise a nobleman". In fact, it doesn't matter whether it is aristocracy or not (as mentioned above, the enthusiasm for aristocracy is not a beneficial thing in today's China), but this also shows from one side that it is not easy to change a person's style, and it is impossible to raise it in a short period of time, but it needs to be cultivated and stored, and most of them are cultivated in an advantageous cultural and educational environment.

As the saying goes, it takes three generations to raise a nobleman. The "aristocratic" education is divided into three levels: the first level is the construction of behavior and discipline; the second level is the personification of core habits, so as to achieve the cultivation of the heart and morality; and the third level is the culture of cultivation, including family culture and school culture, which is related to humanity and is transformed into the world, which is the root. For families, it is the creation of a scholarly family, and it is the habit of parents who can't let go of the book. Here, there is a very important clue, that is, "home learning", and the starting point of the reconstruction of home learning is in the study, the valuable study. People are "smoked", and people are "raised" by the environment, which is the true meaning of family learning. The real aristocracy is not only the possession of wealth, but also the temperament of a strong family scholar.

Some nouveau riche, dressed in gold and silver, are afraid that others will not know that he is rich. And some nouveau riche, whether from the outside or inside, he is still a sling. is like Tang Chen, although he "became rich overnight", but because he was "used to being poor" since he was a child, his current dress is still the same as before, and he can't see any change at all.

Of course, if you get close to Tang Chen, you will find that Tang Chen's inner self has completely changed, especially self-confidence, which is simply the self-confidence that is bred after reaching a very high level in a field, which is the most difficult to change.

On the contrary, it is the appearance of clothing, and a little guidance from someone is enough.

If you want to become a temperamental person, you still have to be nurtured from the inside, and appearance is secondary.

However, brand-name clothes do have a great effect on people's image, especially at Tang Chen's age, this image is needed to support the "façade".

During the banquet, Tang Chen and Zeng Lao discussed the issue of clothing, Tang Chen felt very inspired, and even decided to buy a few sets of brand-name clothes when he went to Quanzhou (Quan) Prefecture.

Because I was so hungry, I ate this meal quickly.

Even if Zeng Lao usually believes in chewing and swallowing slowly, he only solved the "battle" in about half an hour.

After burying the bill, Zeng Lao and Tang Chen walked up the long seawall together and went to Liyu Island to conduct field surveys.

"In the past, there was only one trench here, called 'Oyster Gully', and at low tide, people could walk from 'Oyster Gully' to Liyu Island. Now you don't need to, you can go directly to the seawall, which is much more convenient. Zeng Lao introduced.

Tang Chen nodded, but did not speak.

After arriving at Liyu Island, Tang Chen walked along.

"There is a Linghui Temple on the island, which is said to have been built to commemorate the Fujian general Zhang Yi during the Five Dynasties period. There was also a deserted turret, and the rest was a dense forest surrounded by a circle of sandy beaches. The scenery is good, it's just a lot of bird droppings......" Zeng Lao said a little embarrassed.

Tang Chen raised his interest and said, "Let's go, go to that Linghui Temple and have a look." ”

Liyu Island is said to be an island, but it is more like a lonely mountain standing in the middle of the sea. Of course, it can't be said to be a lonely mountain now, because after the seawall is connected, it has almost become a peninsula.

And the temple of Linghui Temple is built according to the mountain, sits in the southeast and faces the northwest, is a single-entry building, and is composed of the mountain gate and the main hall. The main hall is three rooms wide and three rooms deep, and the mixed structure of lifting beams and piercing buckets has a resting mountain roof. In front of the temple, there is an open field, facing the sea, standing in the wind, and the heart is open-minded.

In the middle of the temple door, hang two golden characters of "Holy Decree", which are very eye-catching. There are two couplets, separated on both sides, and a pair of couplets is: "The mountain stone is a screen, the temple cigarette smoke is spread for thousands of miles; the pine waves are a song, and the spirit is blessed and protects ten thousand families"; the other couplet is: "The white sand paves the road, and thousands of green cypresses embrace the ancient temple; the sea besieges the city, and the blue waves comfort the loyal soul." The temple enshrines the gods such as "the prince and the mother", and Zeng Lao also went in to burn incense and worship.

The more Tang Chen looked at it, the more surprised he became, and muttered, "It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be......"

Zeng Lao heard it in front, walked up to Tang Chen's side and asked, "Master Tang, what shouldn't be?"
