"No news is good news."

Three-person shop.

The merchant next door comforted.

Yan Ji smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, cheering up, his nephew looked panicked.

All of them were on board.

"Don't continue to take orders."

"These months, you're looking for a job at the docks."

Yan Ji told his nephew.

"If they are unfortunately killed, they will be in the same league and sell the shop, and I will bring the money back to their families."

"You just stay here."

"Grit your teeth and stay up for a few years, from scratch, you are still young, and there will be more opportunities in the future."

Although people are persuading and comforting Yan Ji with all kinds of good words, Yan Ji is not hopeful and has recognized the reality clearly.

The ship is gone, and the cargo is gone.

The partner also died.

Yan Ji is ready to go back to Beiping to resume his old business, Beiping makes money quickly, as for chilblains, then stay up.

My nephew's eyes were red.

Soon.

The newly opened three-person joint shop, went out at a low price, Yan Ji took dozens of taels of silver, ate dry food on the road, and saved money all the way, each partner sent more than 20 taels of silver, and he did not leave the slightest.

Then I went home to say goodbye to my family, a forty-year-old man, and went to Peking again, and my back looked lonely.

Yan Ji's nephew saw off his uncle at the dock and found a job.

A painful blow.

His uncle gave him a good example, so that the young man did not give up on himself, and his uncle made a fortune by hard work.

When people reach middle age, they are hit by this blow and go bankrupt, but they still do not give up.

This is the most valuable "treasure" left to him by his uncle.

Such a benevolent uncle and nephew, who businessman will not love and respect it, and the offspring will be more or less taken care of.

The young man has no experience, but people trust him, this is the most important capital, and the young man became the youngest shop manager at the docks.

Peiping.

Yan Ji looked at the Beiping Comprehensive Field in his memory, as if he had returned to his youthful years.

At that time, I was in my thirties.

When the Beiping Comprehensive Field was built, he was still the little prince of Yan Shizi and personally participated in the ceremony of that year.

Sensational and magnificent.

Now the Beiping comprehensive field is still lively, Yan Ji is back to his old business, and his face has more wrinkles, but there are also more smiles.

"Heavenly principles are invisible, but ritual texts are tangible."

A young diner, after listening to Yan Ji's story, sighed.

Yan Ji has traveled north and south for many years, and thinks that the diner in front of him is extraordinary, even if he is so young.

"Rites are the 'rites' made by the saints according to the 'reason', and to keep it is to follow the principles of heaven."

"If you follow the principles of heaven and understand the way of the universe, your spirit will be extremely strong, so even if you encounter hardships, you can still deal with it calmly."

"The guest officer laughed, I don't know any etiquette, and I don't understand the way of the universe, but from the heart." Yan Ji said with a smile.

"Respectable, respectable."

The young man said seriously, "It's hard to be from the heart, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky, although the owner doesn't understand it, but it's like this, in terms of doing things from the heart, it's not as good as the owner in his later life." ”

"You're from Henan?" Yan Ji asked curiously.

The young man nodded.

Just now someone introduced himself, and he also said seriously: "The late student study tour took Beiping, hoping to understand the avenue." ”

"What is the Great Dao?"

"The avenue is constantly changing, and as things develop, there will be new changes."

The young man said with a smile: "The universe has a unified consciousness, called the "Great Dao", which has a consistent law and is the spiritual and material matrix of the universe. ”

"Divinely." Yan Ji smiled, but did not underestimate the young man.

There is a paranoia in young people.

People with this momentum are serious, often surpassing the achievements of ordinary people, which is Yan Ji's experience in knowing people.

Although he didn't understand what the young man said, he felt a strong paranoid spirit in the young man.

"The scope of the universe covers matter, life, spirit, etc., therefore, human beings should learn from the universal principles of the universe, draw nourishment, and gain insight into the secrets of the universe with a comprehensive vision and an attitude of truth."

"Human cognition is limited, and it needs to be continuously improved through deep communication with the universe, so as to gain more wisdom and explore more and more 'truths'."

Young people know that middle-aged people probably can't understand their own learning.

Yes.

Young people are very proud of their own knowledge, even if Beiping develops rapidly, but there is no too unique place in thought.

There is a kind of castle on the beach, a rootless ping.

The so-called building of spiritual civilization is quite a kind of pulling out the seedlings to encourage them and forcibly inculcate them, but they are not cramped.

It seems to be novel, but it is just a technique, without its own Dao, without a Dao technique, it cannot be sustained for a long time.

Middle-aged people are not knowledgeable, but they have noble morals, and they are more than the ideological realm of most people.

So young people are happy to preach, even if the other person doesn't understand.

When it was time to settle the bill, the young man showed his embarrassment, his purse was empty, and he took out a few pennies.

"Probably because of the lack of money, there was no exchange for food stamps." Yan Ji thought secretly in his heart, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao will give me a lecture, and the money for this meal will be free." ”

The young man shook his head, insisted on settling the bill, and then walked away and returned to the inn, the cheapest Chase shop.

I packed my bags, left Datongpu, found a bridge hole, and then went to the Peking Library.

Ground floor of the library.

As long as it is a Ming person, it can be read.

The young man had already read all the books worth reading on the first floor, grinding the managers, begging the other party to be accommodating and allowing him to go up to the second floor, as for the third floor, he did not dare to expect extravagance.

"No, rules are rules."

Tough refusal from managers.

Only scholars, scholars, students, etc., can go up to the second floor, and ordinary people don't need it at all.

"What book do you want to read? Let me tell you about it. A reader laughed.

The young man didn't care about the pride in the eyes of the other party, and after hearing the other party's words, he really asked for advice.

The young man saw that the other party was wearing a bachelor's gown, so he asked.

The way of society in Beiping.

"The newspapers in Peking often say that the agricultural society and the industrial society are great changes, and the economic foundation will inevitably bring about changes in thinking."

"But I read a lot of books in Beiping, but I didn't explore the way of society." Young people sincerely ask for advice.

The reader was stunned.

They don't teach it in college, but all kinds of knowledge.

So he began to explain to himself, "Human beings are social creatures. ”

"In our evolutionary life, from the beginning of foraging and hunting, we have tended to live and work in increasingly complex social groups."

"These groups range from simple family units, clans and tribes, villages and towns, as well as cities and nation-states."

"The natural nature of human beings to live and work collectively contributed to the formation of a civilized society, and because of the high degree of agricultural development of the ancestors, there was the birth of Taoism."

"Shaped by the growth of human knowledge and technological progress, the nature of the society in which we live influences our social behaviour and, substantially, all aspects of our lives."

"The Tao is society's account of how individuals act in groups, and how groups shape those individual behaviors."

"The agricultural society is stable, people pursue self-sufficiency, and the industrialization development of Beiping has brought about the vigorous development of materials and the great cycle of economy, so there is the way of industry."

Listening to the reader's explanation, the young man felt that the other party was a little reluctant and said something empty, but it also inspired him.

"The teaching in Peking is career-oriented, and in my opinion, the content of learning should be divided into two categories, one is virtue and the other is career."

"The two are in conflict, for science, Beiping has given up a bit, specializing in art, and believes that virtue and industry should be pursued at the same time, and there can be no bias."

"In the order of virtue and karma, there is a priority, that is, morality has priority over other learning contents."

"Beiping usually mentions the construction of spiritual civilization, but where does the construction of spiritual civilization come from?"

"For the Song Dynasty, the Beiping newspaper criticized it, saying that the civilization of the Song Dynasty was strong and prosperous, and the previous things were there, but the construction of spiritual civilization was neglected, which led to the social atmosphere of the Song Dynasty not understanding responsibility, unwilling to pay, and discriminating against soldiers."

"But the strength of civilization is also supported by reason."

"To expand one's own good roots and to elevate one's moral realm is to become oneself; Extending kindness to others is a thing. ”

"Isn't it His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson, who advocated in the newspaper back then that everyone is me, and I am a beautiful society for everyone?"

The reader was stunned.

He put away the arrogance in his heart and bowed deeply.

"The knowledge of my predecessors is far beyond mine, and I apologize to my predecessors for my arrogance just now." The reader said sincerely.

"Threesomes must have my teacher."

"Learning is in no particular order, and only by communicating with each other can we make progress together." The young man said politely.

The reader invites young people to his book club.

"The reading club was initiated by me at the Beiping Workers' Children's Middle School, and later I entered the Beiping Guozijian and formed a study club with some like-minded partners, although it was just a plaything, but we could also exchange ideas with each other."

Young people rejoice.

"Gollum."

Suddenly, the sound of the young man's stomach made the young man's face red.

"Hahaha."

"Don't know your friend's name? In Xia Jiang Binzhi, his ancestral home is Yingtianfu, and he studied in Beiping Guozijian. ”

"Your surname is Cao, the name is Duan, your ancestral home is Mianchi, Henan, and you came to Beiping to study."

"Let's go."

"I'll invite you to dinner, and you're not allowed to be polite between friends." Jiang Binzhi pulled Cao Duan cordially, but Cao Duan did not refuse.

A powerful young man came to Beiping.

His learning and intellectual spirit made Beiping Guozijian a sensation, and some people even praised Cao Duan as a great sage.

The first scholar seed of the Ming Dynasty.

In just a few months, Cao Duan's reputation spread all over the country, and the Beiping Guozijian came forward to personally recommend him and received a talent allowance.

With talent allowances and qualifications, Cao Duan walked around the second and third floors of the Peking University Library.

The exchange with the teachers and students of Beiping Guozijian, one of the highest universities in the Ming Dynasty, has become a grand occasion for Beiping Guozijian.

Ward off evil spirits and advocate the Tao, respect Tai Chi, trace back to Song Confucianism, practice practice, educate and pre-nourish, and embrace all rivers.

The students of the Peiping Guozijian spontaneously established a reading club and changed its name to the Science Society.
