Chapter 227 The bottom line of a man(1/2)
The first meeting between Shen Mo and Wang Fuzhi caught each other off guard.
Wang Fuzhi was surprised that Shen Mo came too fast.
I just decided to go down the mountain tomorrow to take the initiative to visit, but I didn't expect that Shen Mo would appear at his doorstep as soon as he finished speaking.
This surprised him and was still a little moved.
People hope to be valued by others. As a great scholar of his generation, Wang Fuzhi is famous all over the world, and naturally he is no exception.
Although he is already humble enough and has a very clear view of the world, this feeling of being valued is still very impressive, especially when he happens to be a hero who saves the world.
So he was very happy,
Shen Mo's surprise came from the friendly attitude Wang Fuzhi showed, and he was not as reserved and arrogant as he imagined.
Wang Fuzhi's behavior is easy-going, humble but also meaningful.
The conversation between the two quickly surpassed the rude and politeness he met for the first time. The topic became more and more enthusiastic since the beginning of "The Collection of Desperate Bandits", and the conversation between them was very speculative.
The thoughts of the three great Confucians, Wang Fuzhi, Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi, are very close to the philosophical framework of modern society.
For example, Wang Fuzhi believes that the Neo-Confucianism's statement of "preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires" is nonsense, completely contrary to human nature, and even more out of reality.
Without human desires, how can the law of nature come from?
For example, he proposed the view that he equalized the world and opposed autocracy. In his historical works, he proposed that "those who pacify the world will only equal the world."
This coincides with the policy of fighting against local tyrants and sharing the land and promoting equality for everyone that Shen Mo has now implemented.
There are also things like him who believe that everything in the world really exists, rather than saying that people imagine it.
Although this simple materialist idea seems to be a correct nonsense to later generations, it is extremely valuable in an ancient society where idealism is prevalent.
In addition, his historical view is also appreciated by later generations. He believes that a specific historical figure or historical event should be discussed in the historical environment at that time, rather than judged by later perspectives.
For Shen Mo, who has the souls of later generations, these concepts are basic common sense. Therefore, this destined that the communication between the two is very smooth and pleasant.
At first, Wang Fuzhi was thinking about Shen Mo with a school entrance exam, but as the conversation progressed, it gradually became a situation where Wang Fuzhi kept asking Shen Mo for advice.
What is the biggest advantage of being a time traveler? It must be the various complicated information I have mastered in my previous life.
Although the depth is not enough and the knowledge system is not systematic, as long as it is not Jiuluyu, everyone can be called a miscellaneous in front of the ancients.
What is a miscellaneous person? It means you know everything and you can talk about any topic. However, if you encounter someone who knows what you know and ask deeper, you will be timid.
But it is enough to fool the ancients with little knowledge.
Especially Shen Mo, a pseudo-literary lover who used to like reading miscellaneous books and was very politician, is no problem for the quasi-political tycoon.
However, for some well-known reasons, the specific content of the two chats should not be said much. In short, Wang Fu was attracted by Shen Mo's ethics and ambitions at first, but in the end he was Shen Mo's vision and far beyond the times.
My thoughts and insights were deeply impressed.
"I used to think that General Shen Zhen was just a hero with the ambition to swallow the sky, but now it seems that you are a truly learned man. The exquisite insights you think and think are unparalleled in the world, and I am far from being as good as you.
”
Wang Fuzhi finally stood up and bowed to Shen Mo seriously, with an admiration on his face.
Although it feels great to talk about it in front of the great scholars, I just have an advantage in the information gap. In terms of real talents, I am the kind of people who stand on the top of Mount Everest and look down at me and still cannot see it.
How could I be so proud of such a great scholar like other people, so I hurriedly got up to avoid it.
"Mr. Jiang Zhai is a great scholar in the country and is famous all over the world. I just talk nonsense, but I can't afford to be such a great gift from Mr. Jiang."
Seeing Shen Mo so humble, Wang Fuzhi admired him even more.
Not to mention his handsome appearance, good personal ethics, lofty ambitions, outstanding knowledge, low-key and humble personality, he is simply the most perfect image of a monarch in the eyes of literati and officials since ancient times.
Later, when Shen Mo recalled the scene of meeting Wang Fuzhi this time, a very pretentious sentence flashed through his mind.
When I went to find you, I happened to see you running towards me.
It looks like the best love.
Hey! This thought made him feel a chill, but the feeling of running in both directions was really good.
Whether it is looking for a partner, a job, or a partner, rushing in both directions is the most ideal state.
Swearing not to be a dog licking is the basic bottom line for men.
Since everyone has a good conversation, the things that have come down will be much easier.
After learning that Shen Mo was about to establish a country and decided to use "Chu" as the name of the country and establish a principality, Wang Fuzhi was very excited.
"The establishment of a country by the general town will surely make the people of the anti-Qing people in the world excited and thus gather to respond. The prospects for the anti-Qing cause are promising!"
Wang Fuzhi praised the qualities and was radiant, and he looked several years younger.
Tang Duanhu, who was standing beside him, looked at the teacher's excited look and felt in his heart that this was just a happy event.
Since the news of the death of Emperor Yongli and King Li Dingguo of Jin, the teacher has been depressed and grieved. For the past twenty years, he has been living in seclusion in Shichuan Mountain to sort out documents and write books.
Outsiders think he is discouraged and no longer has the passion of the past.
Even Tang Duanhu sometimes thinks so.
But today's conversation with the teacher and the process of meeting with Shen Mo made him understand immediately:
The blood in the teacher's heart has never been cold. His greatest wish in his life is to drive the Qing barbarians out of the Central Plains and restore the Han people's territory.
However, in the past twenty years, I have never met a wise master who can be worthy of his followers, so I feel discouraged and do not care about the world.
Now he finally knew that the teacher was still obsessed with the advice his father had before his death.
Anti-Qing to the end!
Thinking of this, Tang Duanhu stepped forward and bowed to Wang Fuzhi's words: "Student congratulations to the teacher!"
Wang Fuzhi naturally understood the meaning of Tang Duanhu, and took his arm to Shen Mo and said, "Zhongzhen, this is my student Tang Duanhu, whose name is Xuxing. Although sometimes it is a bit pedantic and dull, it is also a person.
If the people who are loyal and righteous in the solar term are not disliked, they can also send them at will."
Tang Duanhu is nearly forty years old, but he has a gentle face and a straight body, so he can be called a middle-aged handsome uncle.
Shen Mo knew that this was Wang Fuzhi's recommendation to him, so he naturally would not refuse.
Tang Duanhu was also a little surprised that the teacher suddenly recommended him to Shen Mo.
Although I was a little surprised that Shen Mo was so young, I felt a little resistant because of the unique arrogance of the literati.
After all, I was much older than him, and I had studied with a world-famous scholar like my teacher for nearly twenty years, but I had to bow to a young man of the same age as my son, which made him feel a little angry.
But after listening to the conversation between his teacher and Shen Mo throughout the whole process, his resentment and resistance were gone without realizing it.
This young man fully explained what it means to have ambition but not to be old, and he is far inferior to himself.
Therefore, he came to Shen Mo and bowed respectfully and said: "Tang Duanhu pays homage to Chen Zongzhen. The young hero of the Zongzhen Town is really impressive. It is my honor to drive one or two to the Zongzhen Town."
Shen Mo naturally would not be rude, and he also returned the tribute, and helped Tang Duanhu with a smile and said, "If Mr. Tang can help me, it will be my blessing."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
Since the purpose of coming has been achieved, Shen Mo proposed to say goodbye.
Although Wang Fuzhi was still a little unsatisfied and wanted to continue discussing many questions with Shen Mo, he also knew that Shen Mo was busy with official business, so he had to give up.
The two sides agreed that Shen Mo would send someone to pick Wang Fu down the mountain in three days.
Although Wang Fuzhi really wanted to go down the mountain tomorrow, he has compiled a lot of papers over the years, and it takes time to sort them out.
Shen Mo looked at Wang Fuzhi's regretful expression and bowed and smiled, "There are still many places to bother Mr. Jiang Zhai in the future. These days are the last holiday for Mr. Mr. Jiang, so Mr. should know how to cherish it."
This sentence made everyone laugh, and Wang Fuzhi was even more happy to say yes.
Although it was a joke, it implicitly shows Shen Mo's importance to him and expresses that he should make great use of his ideas in the future, so he is naturally happy.
For the elderly, the most worrying thing is that others regard them as burdens and as worthless people.
Shen Mo remembers that he had contacted many leaders in his previous life.
Before retirement, my waist was straight, my voice was loud, my ears were bright, my eyes were bright, my hair was thick, my spirited and full of energy.
But once I retired, my back became hunched in less than two years, my condition was depressed, my ears began to be ineffective, my eyes began to become blurred, my thick black hair quickly became dry and white, and my whole body was like I had lost my soul. I like to lose my temper and make trouble for my family, which makes the family restless.
The reason for this is that in addition to the psychological gap caused by identity changes, the most fundamental reason is a change in self-worth identity.
Before retirement, I feel like I am a character, but after retirement, I become an individual, and even feel like I have become a useless person. Therefore, there will be huge changes from the mental to the body, leading to a series of subsequent behaviors of looking for trouble.
The best way to treat this retirement syndrome is to find something for him to do and keep him busy so that he will feel that he is still a valuable person.
The meaning of work to people is not only to bring money and maintain life, but also to reflect one's own value.
Simply put, work can maintain mental and mental health in addition to making money.
The ancients said that people have seven establishments: establishing people, establishing oneself, establishing one's ambition, establishing justice, establishing merits, establishing virtue, and establishing words.
The first four are requirements for ordinary people, and the last three are the greatest pursuits in life.
Make meritorious services and can do things that have made significant contributions to the country, nation, people and the country.
Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs and invented the cultivation of grains and the use of medicines.
Dayu took the lead in governing the flood of "the vast mountains and mountains" and stabilized the land of Jiuzhou.
