Dong Yue has been in contact with this group of people since he came into contact with the people in Qingshan Town.

Although he is a Qing official, he is not pedantic, knowing that the government is like this, he is in his position to seek his own government, and only thinks about clearing the Haiyan River governed by Dehua County.

In the past few years, he has cooperated with Ningbo businessmen many times, and the more he comes into contact with him, the more he feels that the Huang people are more reliable than his colleagues in the Ming Dynasty.

As long as it can be profitable, the Huang people will not be ruthless, and even have more contact, Dong Yue also found that the Huang people are truly kind to others, and in terms of integrity, it is enough to make the Ming people embarrassed.

Although they are full of words, the real villain is much stronger than those fake gentlemen.

The deal is also straightforward, and the contract is equivalent to negotiating, and there is never a situation of regret halfway.

It is even more vigorous and resolute to do things, and it has always been said to do it, and it will be done if it is done, and it will never drag mud and water, and there will not be so many twists and turns, and no one will jump out to hinder it.

Dong Yue was surprised at first, but then he became a little crazy, he was used to looking for people to cooperate, and felt that many things, as long as they were beneficial to both parties, then it was better to find people than colleagues.

With the help of the Huang people, Dehua County has also made some rare changes, not to mention the great governance, at least there are fewer hungry people.

The wandering homeless people also have a stable place to go, which is a rare and stable life compared to a few years ago.

Dong Yue also dared to be the first in the world to set up a spinning workshop in Dehua County, and made a new livelihood for the women in the festival women's building, as well as the lonely and widowed women.

Just doing these little things, Dong Yue has become a good official praised by the people of Dehua.

He also knows what the people want through the tempering of the past few years, from the beginning of a little high-minded, to now, Dong Yue has only recognized one truth.

That is, whether it is "beneficial to the country and the people", as long as it is a beneficial thing, not to mention business affairs and people, even if it is a transaction with Lord Yama, he is willing.

Therefore, when he heard Wang Yangming's conscience and the saying of "the unity of knowledge and action, and the application of the world", Dong Yue was like a confidant!

He felt that if he was evaluated by Yang Ming Xinxue, what he had done over the years was applied to the world, and he could be regarded as practicing the way of a saint.

"Mr. Yang Ming, please!"

After a class, Dong Yue respectfully invited Wang Yangming to the banquet.

It's really a humble house, although Dong Yue lives in the county government, there are no decorations, and there are no flowers and plants in the yard, all of which are vegetables grown in the open land.

Wang Yangming is very comfortable, feeling that this is the real Burrow, Liu Yuxi is in the Burrow, self-cultivation is clean and clean, Dong Yue lives in the Burrow, there is no self-cultivation, but he practices and benefits the people of this side.

"Friend Dong has a noble character, please bow to Shouren!" Before Wang Yangming entered the house, he arranged his clothes and arched.

Dong Yue hurriedly supported him and said, "It's tormenting me!" Mr. Yang Ming is considered to be on the next side, how can he worship me as a student? ”

Wang Yangming smiled and said: "In terms of learning, I may be slightly better, but in this practice, you are far better than me, and what you do is truly practical to the world!" Seeing you, I am even more convinced that everyone has a saint in their hearts, and everyone can be Yao Shun! Before you came into contact with my knowledge, you were already in the unity of conscience, knowledge and action, and you were in it without knowing it, which shows that conscience has long been in your heart!

As the saying goes, when you don't look at this flower, this flower and your heart will die together, and when you come to see this flower, the color of this flower will be understood for a while, and you will know that this flower is not outside your heart. ”

Dong Yue pondered this sentence and said with admiration: "What Mr. said is very true! On the other hand, what has been done over the years can be regarded as an effort to apply it in the world and do practical things! ”

As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation and beckoned Wang Yangming to enter the house and sit down.

There were only a few small dishes on the table, all of which were busy with Dong Yue's wife.

This made Wang Yangming feel a burst of emotion in his heart, and he said with a smile: "Friend Dong, since you are a sincere person, I won't say more polite words!" In fact, as soon as I entered Dehua County, I heard some of your deeds, and I also had some doubts in my heart, and I hope you will give me advice! ”

"I don't dare to say it, I must know everything!"

After Wang Yangming raised his glass and toasted, he asked seriously: "Friend Dong, do you think it is important to do practical things, or is it important to have a conscience?" ”

"Why do you ask?"

"This ...... In fact, it is an old friend who once discussed a question with me, that is, what is the composition of everything in this world, that is, what is the original being! I think that conscience is a conscience that exists in one mind, and it already exists, just waiting for us to know it! ”

Wang Yangming sighed and said: "But if this is the case, then there is a problem, that is, the unity of knowledge and action, and the result of practice often judges the results of 'knowledge', that is to say, to conscience, this premise is not necessarily right, but 'action', which may be placed in front of conscience!" ”

In fact, it is still a problem of epistemology, and the study of mind can absorb some of it, but there is always a loophole left, and this loophole is generated by the basic philosophical problem of "the origin of the world".

Mind is the belief that consciousness, that is, spirit, is the origin of the world, and does not believe that matter is the origin of the world.

This made Wang Yangming have a huge thought, that is, to take away the famous teachings, the four books and the five classics, and just 'apply it to the world, seek truth from facts, apply what you have learned, and help the world and save the people', whether it can implement the rule of the whole family and level the world!

If it is according to the theory of mind, then this premise must not be taken away, but according to the "Yan Zheng Philosophy", the so-called famous teaching, as long as it cannot guide practice and cannot guide people to transform the objective world, then it is useless!

Dong Yue thought for a while, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I also read the sage book thoroughly, and only after I got fame did I become this magistrate!" However, the words of the sages are okay to look at, but if you really want to use them for things, they are useless at all! Doing things is doing things, and the way of the sages is the way of the sages! If you really want to talk to the people about the way of the sages, I'm afraid it's better to give them a bowl of full rice!

Therefore, whether it is to conscience or to make moral articles, it must be beneficial to the people and the country, otherwise no matter how beautiful it is, it will actually be useless! What I have done over the years is not much, but the piles and piles have made the people get benefits, and this year, the days of the people of Dehua have far surpassed the surrounding counties! Although I don't know much, I have also realized a truth - things are done by people! ”

Wang Yangming picked up the wine glass, pondered for a while, and then nodded: "That's good!" As long as we can do practical things and benefit the people of the country, this is the way to apply to the world and truly practice the road, which is the conscience ......"

Speaking of this, he smiled bitterly again, and he didn't know whether to be happy or melancholy. For some reason, the Yan Zheng in his mind was leisurely at the moment, as if he was better than it again.

Dong Yue added wine for Wang Yangming, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yangming, your knowledge is good because it is reasonable and well-founded, and you will use the world to help the world, save the people, and use the sage's truth to tell it, just like a hoop barrel, anyone can get out a few planks, but to achieve a tight seal, it will take hard work!" But what I admire most about Mr. is the sentence of seeking truth from facts! ”

"I don't dare to be greedy for merit in this, seek truth from facts, it is what Dongqin Yanzheng said!" Wang Yangming couldn't help but smile, he also felt that seeking truth from facts was the adhesive that sealed the silk.

"Oh! Yellow? Dong Yue's face was strange, and he lowered his eyes and said: "Don't hide it, sir, I have done these practical things with the help of many people!" ”

This time it was Wang Yangming's turn to be surprised, and he asked, "How do you help?" ”

Dong Yue sighed and smiled: "A few years ago, Qingshan Town was flooded, and because the fertile fields on both sides of the upstream did not want to be flooded, the river supervisor decided to flood a Qingshan Town. That time, I personally went up to the embankment, but natural and man-made disasters are beyond the reach of manpower! In the end, it was the water that flooded Qingshan Town, and tens of thousands of people became victims! Just when I was at a loss, I met a gang......"

Dong Yue concisely told Wang Yangming about the events of the past few years. The more he listened to Wang Yangming, the more frowning he became, and when he heard that the cooperation with the Huang people complemented each other, he smiled out loud.

"In this way, this black man is also a group of wonderful people!"

"Not really!" Dong Yue smiled: "Them! Unlike you, you will be red tape, and they can't wait for you to explain things as soon as you open your mouth, and if you can explain what your interests are, they will be even more happy! ”

Wang Yangming said: "The words of the Ming people are righteous, and the words of the people are profitable, but the righteousness of this world is only a lot of fiction, and there are few practitioners!" This man is good for his words, but he can benefit others! There is a sense of righteousness in this, which can be regarded as a fair and fair board! ”

Dong Yue nodded: "The important thing is the law!" In the past, when dealing with them, you will often let you know the relevant legal terms first, and then if there are any disputes, you will also act in accordance with the law! Take the businessmen as an example, the businessmen of the Eastern Qin Dynasty never dared to raise prices, because if they were caught, they would be dealt with by the law.

But what about my Ming merchants? If you ask them to stabilize the price of grain, they can't find a corresponding way to punish them, and if they do, they may not be able to implement it! Moreover, the businessmen of the Huang people can't help but be in the Eastern Qin State Mansion, the Eastern Qin State Government, they end up mixing in business, and that profiteer dares to take the lead, which is against the State Government! The workshop I run is actually a three-trick two-style shop! ”

"How?"

"Without him, in a word, it is an official supervision and business office! This is still a method given by Ningbo businessman Li Sifu. ”

"Official, superintendent, business, office?"

"That's right! The strength of Shang Jia is indeed great, just like Menghu, but this Menghu must be kept in a cage! ”

"But tell me more about it?"

Dong Yue explained: "The official supervision and business office, as the name suggests, is to let the businessmen participate under the supervision of the government. The government gave convenience, so that the businessmen could do things with peace of mind, and also supervised them, and made a contract in advance!

The key to this lies in the separation of ownership and management rights. Only in this way can we ensure that businessmen cannot do things that harm the people without being constrained. ”

Wang Yangming was silent for a while, and then arched his hand and said, "Please allow me to write a letter to Mr. Liu Shiyong from Huguang, I think he may be interested in this matter!" Not only that, but I would recommend him as well! Liu Lao is now obsessed with changing the law, and I believe he will also like it, you are an official who does practical things and communicates things! ”
