Chapter 29: Wisdom

"The monkey picked up the stick? And then?"

Facing Guan Zhe's questioning, Dong Dashuai said unhurriedly: "3 million years ago, the ancestors who knew how to use tools could better protect themselves, defeat enemies who were stronger and more powerful than themselves, hunt those large beasts, and even exterminate their compatriots and blood relatives. ”

"After that we stopped calling ourselves monkeys, we started calling ourselves human. So, 3 million years later, if we can pick up something again, can we also start a new era?"

"What can you pick up?" Guan Zhe wondered.

"Wisdom!

"Haven't human beings always been developing science and technology and pursuing civilization?" Guan Zhe added.

"That's not what it means. No matter what kind of tools we use, whether it's a ruler, a compass or a computer, we use the tools in our hands, but in fact, there are tools that we can't open or touch, and they lie there like sticks that used to lie on the ground, and no one picks them up. ”

Guan Zhe was completely confused by these logics, and asked, "Wisdom, does it mean those tools that cannot be seen or touched?"

"What kind of power did you think made our ancestors smart enough to use tools? Wisdom is that power!"

"You mean to say that intelligence makes monkeys smart, so monkeys know how to use tools, don't you?"

"No, learning to use tools after understanding the truth of using tools is smart, and thinking of using tools before there are no tools is wisdom!"

"What's the difference?" "IQ, my IQ. Guan Zhe sighed to himself.

"Of course it's different, for example, what is the fourth power of nine?"

"I'll do the math......" Guan Zhe calculated the numbers in his mind, he got stuck in the last calculation, and after a few minutes, he tried to answer, "6561?"

"Yes, you're smart, but if you're smart enough, you should just take out the calculator and calculate the result. ”

"You let me do the math, I take out the calculator and calculate, isn't that cheating?"

"Cheating? Aren't we human beings cheating?" Dong Dashuai lifted the plate in his hand, held it high, carefully checked the mirror luster of the plate under the light, then nodded with satisfaction, and continued, "That's what I said, learn to use tools after knowing the truth of using tools, that's smart, thinking of using tools before you don't have tools, that's wisdom! You didn't think of using a calculator, it's just that the calculator is not in front of you." ”

I seem to understand this metaphor a little. ”

Does he mean that no matter what you do, there is some kind of trick or shortcut to choose from? Guan Zhe thought to himself, but he felt that he might not be right.

In fact, human beings rely on wisdom to get rid of shackles and soar to the sky. True wisdom is the tool of thinking. It's all hidden here. Dong Dashuai pointed his brain with his index finger.

"Was it your partner, who told you so much at the time?"

"No, he told me that the monkey picked up the sticks on the ground, so the monkey became a man, and if a man could pick up the tools of the mind, he would no longer be a simple man. More ideas came to me later. ”

"I still can't understand it, it's too profound. After thinking about it, Guan Zhe gave up asking the question and said, "I think I'd better brush the dishes." ”

"Haha. Dong Dashuai smiled, "Actually, it's not that complicated." It's like no matter how smart a person is, if he doesn't know how to add, subtract, multiply and divide the calculation, even if he is faced with a simple math problem, he will be at a loss. Relatively speaking, it is not the human brain that is powerful, but the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division calculations. All the tools of thinking are just methods of thinking. ”

"I'm dizzy when you talk about it, to put it simply—what does this have to do with your partner? Ah Tai couldn't help it, listening to Guan Zhe and Dong Dashuai's questions and answers, he felt that he was back in the school class, only to listen to it drowsy. What are you kidding, if I can understand what you guys are talking about, I'll still have to do odd jobs at the Three Rivers Market?

"Actually, it's not the first time my partner has participated in the Tiandao game, and when I saw him holding that ID card, he had already participated in many rounds of the game. Like me today, he was one of the sponsored players, but he never won the game. It was also he who told me that if I could win the game, I would be eligible to be approved to join the 'association', which is the group that created the Heavenly Way game. ”

"What's the use of joining that 'association'? Besides, you have the money and the power, so why do you have to pursue those illusory things. Wisdom or anything cannot be eaten. Guan Zhe also said where he thought of it.

"Do you think I was lucky enough to be a partner? Do you think that repair was really just a coincidence?"

"Otherwise, isn't it because your partner's car broke down, and he went to find your friend, and then he met you?"

"You're completely wrong. That's what I thought at first. I thought I was just a lucky one. But actually, we were all wrong!"

"My partner, I used to do financial investments, and you may not know what that means. Let's put it this way, the concept of a normal person, the basic unit of money is yuan, but for the capital market, the basic unit is billion. ”

"Take our Shenshui City as an example, today there are hundreds of listed companies here with a market value of nearly 10 trillion. We businessmen, compared to the huge capital market, are actually nothing. ”

Capital market, 10 trillion ...... Atai and Guan Zhe have been completely numb and have no concept at all.

"Since my partner was obsessed with Tiandao games, he didn't have much time to take care of financial investment, and he decided to do some business of his own, so he asked his Tiandao group to give some advice. The advice given by the Tiandao group is very simple, to be a chain car dealership, find an excellent agent, and this agent needs to be professional, honest, and clever. ”

So, the partner hired a professional and deliberately manipulated his newly bought Kailadia, which was very ingenious, simple, but difficult to detect, and you had to have enough professional skills to find out the crux of the problem. And this problem is very simple, and it doesn't take much effort to deal with it. ”

It turns out that in the beginning, the problem of Kelladia was caused by this partner himself...... So who is calculating whom? Guan Zhe only felt that his mind was wide open.

After that, he ran from car dealership to car dealership, and some car dealers couldn't find the key points, and some car dealers found out the problem, but they deliberately concealed the real situation and just wanted to make more money. So, when he found our car dealership and met me, it was not just a coincidence. ”

"I proved my professionalism with my strength and passed the first test; I couldn't tolerate the boss's deception of the customer, so I handed over the note, proved my character, and passed the second test; I was able to help him hide his words and hide everyone together, which proved my cleverness and completed the third test. So, it's not so much that I'm lucky, it's that I just meet his needs. ”

This is really—everything has been counted!" Atai and Guan Zhe couldn't stop exclaiming in their hearts. Is this the wisdom of legend?

But this scheming is inevitably too terrifying.

"Later, the business of the car dealership is getting better and better, and the partners will be able to put more attention into the game of Tiandao. Until one day, he disappeared!"

"Missing? out...... What's wrong?" both wondered.

"It's not the disappearance you think, it's the partner himself hiding from everyone, and he has drawn a line with his past. I hired a private investigator to investigate the matter. It is said that the partner won the victory of the Tiandao game, successfully joined the 'association', and donated most of his net worth to the 'association' for free, and then concentrated on finding the answer to the so-called ultimate wisdom from the classics of the 'association'. ”

"Your partner, eighty percent stupid. Atai said unceremoniously, "According to you, this game does not give people wisdom at all, but makes people crazy." ”

"It has nothing to do with the game. In fact, games are just games. What I know is that there are two ways for this 'association' to recruit members, one is to submit an original 'thinking tool' to the 'association', and then the 'association' will 'approve' its value, and finally decide whether to admit it as a member, and the other way is to be able to win the game of heaven and get the right to be 'approved'. ”

"In other words, the reason why your partner is playing the Heavenly Dao game is just to join the 'association'. ”

"Yes, as far as I know, that's what it is. ”

"So what are the benefits of joining the 'association'?"

"Members of the Association will be able to view the 'Thinking Tools' previously submitted by other members based on their qualifications. In other words, if you are eligible, you can get from the 'guild' the sticks that all the members used to have gleaned from the ground. ”

"I finally understood that it is equivalent to being able to learn a lot of unknown addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. ”

"Congratulations, you got it right. Dong Dashuai smiled again: "My partner gave up everything he had for this and willingly joined the 'association'." The result of my investigation is that the partners are still in the 'association', in a vast treasury of wisdom, to see the mysteries of it. ”

"Do you want to win in the Heavenly Dao Game just to join the 'Association'?" Guan Zhe couldn't help but ask.

"Yes and no. Speaking of this, Dong Dashuai's eyes suddenly became confused, "How to say it, I am a businessman, a secular person, you tell me to give up everything to explore the treasure house of wisdom, I can't do it." However, my partner, he was really my life coach, and it was he and that mysterious 'association' that changed my destiny. ”

"I would love to see my life coach again, to see for myself what that mysterious 'association' is like, and even more so to see what kind of treasure trove of wisdom can fascinate my partner. ”

"You know, after so many years, I'm no longer young, and my partner is getting older and older, and I really want to solve this doubt in my heart before I die. Then, Dong Dashuai's eyes began to become firm again, "So, I want to win, I have to win." Even if I lose this time, I still have to participate in the next round until I win. ”

"I'm starting to understand you a little. "But let's talk about something practical, what good is it for us to help you?"

The smile on Dong Dashuai's face became even brighter, and he said, "In the future, you can stay in my hotel suite for free." At every meal, you can eat the same food as you have today. You can join my group, become a part of one of our companies, and your only job is to play this game with me. If you want, I can also introduce you to female friends. I promise you that you will be satisfied with everything I have arranged—of course—only one when I will no longer need you. ”

"What's the situation?" asked Ah Tai and Guan Zhe in unison.

"You were kicked out of the game by the Heavenly Dao Group because of the end of the game or for various reasons. Dong Dashuai said coldly, "If you lose your qualification to play the game, you know, I am a businessman, not a philanthropist." Where you came from and where you are going. Then, he turned to a smile and said, "Of course, if I win the final victory, whether you have credit or not, I will give you half of the shares of this seafood restaurant." ”

Ah Tai and Guan Zhe didn't grasp the plate in their hands steadily, and they fell into the pool with two "clangs...... This...... Inverse...... It's against the sky......
