329, good as water
It was still such an indescribable treatment, and after drinking two bottles of water in a row, Varich "lived" again, feeling comfortable and full of energy, and even his thinking became very clear. Even if it's not for the purpose of curing diseases, it's just a daily recuperation, which is a great pleasure.
It's a pity that this thought just turned around in his mind and put it away, how could a character like Feng Zibin deign to do his daily recuperation services? Now it's just because of special circumstances.
And Feng Zibin seemed to know what he was thinking, and said lightly: "Don't you feel very comfortable, thinking that you can come once or twice a day?" β
Varich hurriedly shook his head: "Don't dare, really don't dare!" As long as I can save my life, I can't thank you enough. β
Feng Zibin smiled: "What dare you dare to do?" What I can do, you may not be able to do yourself. People can't always hope to be saved, they must learn to save themselves after all. After a while, there will also be a Yangyuan Center here in Vage City, and Vage Mining is of course a key promotion unit, and you can also go to learn Yangyuan with others at that time. β
Varich asked with some excitement, "Is it the cultivation secret method that has been circulated in the Vitality Club?" β
Feng Zibin nodded: "Yes, it is what they advertise internally, the kind of exercise method that can improve life vitality and reach a higher level of physical and mental realm." β
After saying this, after a long time, there was no squeak from Varysh, and Feng Zibin asked again: "What's wrong with you?" β
Varich didn't know what he was trying to write just now, but now he came back to his senses and asked, "Why are you doing this?" β
This sentence was a bit endless, but Feng Zibin seemed to understand what he meant, and asked rhetorically: "Can you change the question, or change the angle of the questionβwhy don't I do it?" β
Waris: "During this time, I lived with the local indigenous miners, eating and living and doing the same work. I sympathize with them and am willing to improve their situation. But on the other hand, because of this, I should also know them better than you. As far as I know, at least most of them, not as you think. β
Varich didn't know that the Lord in front of him was Hua Zhenxing, and of course, he didn't know Hua Zhenxing at all, so he said things like "I should know them better than you".
Feng Zibin: "It's not what I imagined?" β
"I must tell you the truth," said Varich, "few of them are good, at least most of them are not. The affection and effort you have poured into them represents a noble sentiment that I admire a lot, but I am afraid that in the end it will not be truly rewarded. I know you may not ask for anything in return, but they probably don't deserve it. β
He thought that Feng Zibin would be angry or excited when he said this, but the other party didn't have any mood fluctuations, but just said lightly: "Yes, I know, I already know what kind of people they are." β
He did know it for a long time, and no one even knew better than him what kind of country it was and what kind of people it lived.
He once accompanied Shi Shuangcheng to "visit" the unliberated city of Wage, and what he saw was a hellish scene on earth, and he also told Shi Shuangcheng at the time that Banda City and Afso Port were the same before.
If most of the people living in purgatory are good people, and only a few gang leaders do evil, I'm afraid no one will believe this. As far as Hua Zhenxing has seen since he was a child, the residents in the neighborhood around him are either confused, desperate, or gang reserves.
In them, all kinds of negative emotions and bad qualities are concentrated, selfish, cruel, lazy, irresponsible, like to get something for nothing, no shame, no trust, and are accustomed to cheating, stealing guns, and even killing people and goods...... These pickled stories could not be told for days and nights.
Like the question in the past, are there any good people in the gang? Maybe there is, but that doesn't change the substance. Then there's the question, if most of the people here are of good character, how can they make their world like this?
Poverty and weakness do not naturally represent noble character, and if such a situation must be evaluated from a positive perspective, it is only that they have personally experienced and witnessed human suffering, and as long as they see hope, they have an urgent expectation to get rid of this suffering.
This is the reality that Hua Zhenxing has long understood.
The New Alliance has taken out the Lions and eliminated the gangs in Vago City, but if there is no strong enforcement ability to quickly restore order, then there will inevitably be a great upheaval and riot here. When the time comes, don't make too much fun about smashing and looting, zero yuan buying and other activities, and the main force doing this kind of thing will also be local residents.
The 20,000 local miners employed by Wago Mining are already a relatively high-quality group, after all, they have been trained and nurtured by modern industrial production. There are some aspects that even Hua Zhenxing appreciates, such as their understanding of mutual cooperation in complex processes, and even their ability to recognize that they only receive a salary once a month!
I remember that at the beginning of the Feisuo Port, Huanxiang Industrial expanded its business scale and established many local enterprises one after another, so it began to recruit local residents, organize them for training and then participate in work. At that time, some people suggested that it was necessary to adapt measures to local conditions, and that wages should not be settled monthly, but at least weekly, preferably daily.
Because many local aborigines, as long as they have money in their hands, they will spend all their time drinking, and they don't want to work at all, and they will come back to work when they run out of money. If the wages are paid monthly, there will only be two situations, the first is that these people's money will be gone before the end of the month, and the second is that after the wages are paid, I am afraid that no one will come to the factory the next day.
Hua Zhenxing knew that this was true, but Ke Fuzi, who was in charge of the work of Huanxiang Industry at that time, insisted on being uncompromising and demanded that all departments under Huanxiang Industry should resolutely implement the monthly wage settlement system.
The reason he gave is very simple, since there are many people in the local area who lack good habits, such as not thinking about the long term, lack of planning for the future, and lack of analysis and anticipation of various things, it is necessary to let them develop this habit instead of conniving at them not to make changes.
All kinds of cram schools and training activities should also strengthen publicity and education in this regard, and the recruitment scale of Huanxiang Industry can be gradually expanded, first absorbing and encouraging those who are willing and able to cultivate these habits, until the mainstream is formed.
Nowadays, no one in the port of Afro-Sou is surprised by the monthly wage system. Although there are many factors such as gangsters controlling the pumping of miners and workers not spending money on food and accommodation in the mining area, it is also very good, at least it saves a lot of energy of the working group.
But the miners here still retain many of the old local habits, and Varich says that most of them are not good, which is actually a fact that he has seen with his own eyes.
And on the other hand, as far as Hua Zhenxing saw with his own eyes, most of them couldn't talk about how hard-working they were. Although the working conditions and environment here are difficult, the workload and work efficiency of most people are far from being comparable with those workers who assisted the construction in the eastern country, and as for the mental outlook and way of thinking, they cannot be compared.
In fact, Hua Zhenxing's understanding of these situations is much deeper than that of Varich, but his answer surprised Varich, who looked up and said, "So what are you for?" β
Feng Zibin asked rhetorically again: "Do you know what it means to be good like water?" β
Varich: "I didn't quite understand what you meant. β
"Do you know what it means to be good?" Feng Zibin asked the same question again, but this time it was Hansian, and they had been talking in Lancy just a moment ago.
Due to cultural differences, it is difficult to accurately translate the traditional ideological classics of the Eastern Kingdom into the Luoba language expression, and it is no wonder that Walish did not understand what Hua Zhenxing wanted to say just now.
But Luo Bazhou also has a group of outstanding big thinkers, who have tried to translate many Eastern Chinese classics, leaving mainly Hanse versions, so Hua Zhenxing changed to Hans, and directly quoted these classic translations.
After asking this sentence, he didn't wait for Varich to answer, stood up from behind the wide desk, turned his back and looked out the window at the night, and said: "When I was a child, in addition to those comic books describing all kinds of delicacies in the world, the first book I read was Lao Tzu......
What is Lao Tzu? Varich didn't know, but seeing that His Excellency Lord clearly wanted to be lyrical, he also played the role of a listener with great interest.
The five-storey office building is the commanding height of the mine, and Warrich's office is on the fifth floor, with spacious floor-to-ceiling windows and some of the best views in the area.
Feng Zibin stood in front of the window, as if talking to himself: "I didn't understand the truth in the book at that time, but I just memorized it and knew all the Dongguo characters in it." It's only in the past few years that I've come to understand a little bit, but it's still far from fully understood, and maybe I'll understand more in the future.
The good is like water, and it is not the great flood that God in the "Covenant" unleashed, which is called the destruction of sin but actually destroys everything, thinking that he can live and kill at will.
The good is like water, and the water is good for all things. It is born but not had, for the sake of not being ashamed, and succeeding and living. Fu Wei Fuju is not going to go. What is true virtue for me? Walking in line with the Tao is to be virtuous!
You think I'm doing good to the miners and saving them. And when you get to know them, you think it's strange, why should I save such a person? In fact, for me, the real question is not to go, but to act.
What kind of people they are doesn't change the way I seek.
Just as we can't expect all victims to be perfect, and we can't expect all the oppressed to be good, but that doesn't change the fact that they make victims and oppressed.
I'm not trying to save any particular one of them, I've even killed a lot of them with my own hands, I care about what the world should be like? At least one thing I've learned since I was a kid is that it shouldn't be what it is.
When I talk about the world here, the focus is not on the sun, moon and stars, heaven and earth, but on ourselves.
There is a sentence that I have pondered for a long time, but I have not yet figured it out. 'Then the body comes first, and the outer body exists. It is not because of its selflessness and evil, so it can become its selfishness. 'What is mine and not mine, and who is both me and not me?'
If I didn't do what I am today, it doesn't seem to prevent me from becoming a big capitalist, but it will prevent me from becoming you and them, which is why I am here today as you.
I don't care if people outside know about my existence, and I don't bring milk and biscuits and go out of my way to find a group of local kids to take pictures. The change in this world is my gain, because I am in it. β
The more he listened, the more confused his eyes became, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, some of the words he didn't understand too much, but some of the meanings he still understood.
Hua Zhenxing's words were inspired by feelings, perhaps only on such a specific occasion would he have such a self-question and self-answer. He didn't explain it exactly to Variich, but more importantly to himself.
If Varich had known the true identity of the Lord in front of him, he might have felt even more deeply. Most of the high-level leaders of Huanxiang Industry and the New Alliance know what Hua Zhenxing has done, but more people have never heard of him at all, and Charles and Rock are the well-known stars here.
Speaking of this, Hua Zhenxing turned around, looked at Warich and said, "The new alliance liberated the city of Wag, why is it liberation, not conquest or occupation?" If you think that most of the people here are sinful, then order here is broken because sin once went unpunished.
So the first thing the new coalition did was restore order. If you say that this is a kind of salvation, then the way to save is to punish them for their evil deeds and stop them from continuing to do evil.
It doesn't matter whether any of them are good or bad, even if most of these miners aren't good, the new alliance still needs to do it, and it should do it, you see? β
Varich: "I, I seem to understand what you mean...... How many more times do I need to receive this treatment? β
Feng Zibin: "Nine times in total, counting these two times, you need to come again seven times." Hopefully, by that time, you'll have learned the art of cultivating the Yuan yourself. β
