Chapter 38 Zhao Mojuzi
Long Yangjun came over and said to Xiang Shaolong: "I heard that General Xiang was attacked. Was he injured? Who is so bold as to rob and kill the general?"
Xiang Shaolong looked at him with a sincere look on his face. He didn't know whether it was because he really didn't know or because he was a good actor, so he could only say: "I'm sorry for you, sir. These little guys can't hurt me. There are so many people who want to kill me. I can't."
Time to check these little things."
Long Yangjun had an expression of admiration on his face and said: "General Xiang is so heroic and heroic, I admire him!"
Xiang Shaolong felt a little goosebumps when he looked at him. Although he had a peerless appearance, he was still a man.
Li Yuan and Guo Zong sat together, chatting and laughing.
Guo Zong, the "iron smelting king", seemed to have lost confidence in the State of Zhao and wanted to betroth his daughter Guo Xiuer to Li Yuan so that he could go to Chu to escape the Qin Dynasty. However, Li Yuan was obsessed with Ji Yanran and wanted to leave the position of the royal family to Ji Cai'an. Guo Zong
Even though her status is unusual, although she doesn't mind Li Yuan's romance, her daughter cannot be a concubine for others.
Li Yuan now heard that Ji Yanran was very close to Xiang Shaolong after he left Xianyang. Now he has returned to Daliang and is preparing to move his family to Xianyang, knowing that he will never get Ji Yanran.
Not to mention that Xiang Shaolong's current status is far inferior to his own. He still holds his own economic lifeline in his hands. Although he has only been in charge of the paper business for a short time, he has made huge profits and his own strength has also expanded rapidly.
You can't blame yourself for bullying others. Although Ji Cainu is good, there are so many beauties in the world. It is impossible for him to have a grudge against Xiang Shaolong for a woman who doesn't have him in his heart. They are in love with each other. Even if he is jealous, he can't show it. What?
None of them are as important as the benefits obtained. Unless one day Xiang Shaolong loses power and can be trampled under his feet, there will only be less heartfelt blessings.
Li Yuan and Guo Zong came over to toast Xiang Shaolong. Guo Zong said: "General Xiang's demeanor back then is still unforgettable. It's a pity that I, Zhao Fubo, couldn't retain General Xiang. Fortunately, with the general's talent, he can go anywhere
It can't be buried. Now it's famous all over the world, which is gratifying."
Xiang Shaolong raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp, saying: "Mr. Guo, thank you for your praise. Our Wu family went to the outside of the Great Wall to establish a new home. Now we are also involved in the weapon forging industry. Mr. Guo has rich experience. If you have the opportunity, come to our Daqin to communicate with everyone. See
Let’s see if there are any opportunities for cooperation. The world is so big and there is endless money to be made.”
Guo Zong was surprised. His relationship with the Wu family was not good, and could even be said to be bad. When he was competing for favor in front of King Xiaocheng, he often slandered the other party. Now, seeing that Xiang Shaolong has a kind attitude and does not hold grudges, he even extended an invitation in person.
, his mind turned several times in an instant, thinking to himself: "Is his invitation just a few polite words? Does he want to trick me into going to Qin State to deal with me again? Or is he sincerely inviting me?"
He wants to go to Li Yuan now because he wants to avoid the strong Qin. But if he can go directly to the strong Qin, wouldn't it be better? Although the possibility is not high, but this important matter of wealth and life, even if it is a one in ten thousand chance
, and cannot let it go. You can try it out first, but at the same time, you can't cut off the relationship with Li Yuan. As a businessman, he knows the truth of "you can't put your eggs in one basket". If you put all your efforts to win, the reward will be great, but if you lose,
If you do it, you will lose everything. With your current wealth, it is not advisable to be radical. Insurance is the most important thing.
He quickly thanked Xiang Shaolong for the invitation.
Xiang Shaolong asked Li Yuan again: "Since we left Xianyang, Mr. Li's demeanor has become even better than before. Now he is an important minister of the Chu State, and his future is limitless."
Li Yuandao: "I don't dare. I don't dare to forget General Xiang's great kindness. If you have any instructions in the future, please don't be polite."
Xiang Shaolong waved his hand and said: "Young Master Li, you're welcome. Let's help each other."
Guo Zong was stunned. He didn't expect that they had some unknown relationship, so he had to pay more attention to it.
Xiang Shaolong walked up to a man in linen clothes and bare feet, raised his wine glass, and said, "Your Excellency must be Mr. Ju Ziyan from the Zhao Mo Guild."
The man didn't seem to expect that Xiang Shaolong would come to toast him. As Xiang Shaolong, he always sat there waiting for others to toast him. He quickly stood up. He was clumsy in words and just said: "It's Yan Ping."
As soon as this man stood up, Xiang Shaolong discovered that he was also very tall, half a head shorter than himself, very thin, with a weathered face and a straight back.
Xiang Shaolong said: "I am very interested in Mohist thought. Since there are Zhao Mo, Qi Mo and Chu Mo, why don't we have a Mohist guild in Great Qin?"
Yan Ping is a practitioner who is not good at words and has an old-fashioned personality. He thought to himself: "We have been pursuing the integration of the three inks. You want me to split off another one. What are you doing to entertain me? Besides, we are opposed to attacking and plundering.
In the War of Righteousness, considering the virtues of your Qin State, can we do well if we go there?" He suddenly said displeasedly: "Our Mohist Guild is integrating and unifying, how can it be divided again?"
Xiang Shaolong just said casually to start a conversation so that he could continue the conversation. He didn't expect him to answer like this. He thought to himself: "Do I mean to divide you? I want you to open branches and subsidiaries, so that
You can become a multinational company."
Xiang Shaolong didn't blame Yan Ping's stiff tone, maybe because his understanding was different from reality, so he said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Yan, I don't understand the affairs of your guild, and I'm offended. I respect the Mohist ideas very much,
It’s not suitable to talk in detail here today, why don’t I go visit the guild tomorrow?”
Yan Ping saw that Xiang Shaolong's tone was sincere, and secretly blamed himself for being sensitive. As Xiang Shaolong, he would never come here just to amuse himself, so he still just said bluntly: "Okay."
Xiang Shaolong returned to his seat and toasted with the guests, neither arrogant nor friendly.
Xiang Shaolong stayed at the Marquis Mansion that night. Zhao Mu wanted to arrange some beauties for Xiang Shaolong to sleep with him, but Xiang Shaolong refused.
In the past in Zhao Kingdom, Zhao Mu wanted to send beautiful women to Xiang Shaolong many times, but was rejected. He thought that Xiang Shaolong had some health problems. Later, when he looked at the wives and concubines that Xiang Shaolong married, he realized that it was not Xiang Shaolong who was not lustful.
But the vision is too high, and most people look down upon it.
The next day, Xiang Shaolong really went to visit the Mohists Guild.
The place where the Mohists' Guild is held is not small, but very simple.
Mohists are truly practicing their own ideas. They advocate frugality, and they themselves are really simple and do not seek pleasure. Instead of letting others be frugal and frugal, they themselves are arrogant and extravagant. This is also the reason why Xiang Shaolong respects Mohists. They are
A group of activists.
Yan Ping spoke first: "I was too sensitive yesterday. Please don't blame me, General Xiang."
Xiang Shaolong said: "Mr. Yan, you're welcome. Mr. Mo Zhai is a great man. His ideas show his noble character and he practices them personally. He can be called the 'Great Love in the World', but he is too idealistic and a bit unfair."
It is practical, but we cannot deny his correctness. I hope that more and more people will believe in Mohism, but I dare not expect that everyone will become a believer in Mohism. Just like I very much agree with your proposal of frugality, I also think that
This is a good character, but I can't do it. I am greedy for pleasure, but it does not prevent me from respecting people like you."
Yan Ping was very happy to be respected by powerful people like Xiang Shaolong, although Xiang Shaolong said that they were unrealistic, saying: "Qin implements the rule of law, but we advocate benevolent government. We Mohists are against war, but Qin people are warlike.
, attaches great importance to military merit, I didn’t expect that the general would value our Mohist ideas.”
Xiang Shaolong said: "So I say your ideas are too idealistic. You want to educate everyone in the world to become saints. Unfortunately, human nature is evil, selfishness and greed are the root of all troubles. But I still think your ideas are worth promoting and I am willing to
Help you spread your theories. Moreover, in my eyes, Mr. Mo Zhai is not only a thinker and educator, but also a military strategist, scientist, and great craftsman. His equipment manufacturing ability is not inferior to that of Gongshu Ban, and he has good knowledge of geometry and physics.
There is a certain amount of research, and these are more worthy of promotion and dissemination. I have a printing factory, which is most suitable for publishing books and spreading culture to the maximum extent. You can compile Mohist thoughts and achievements into books, and I will help you print and disseminate them.
More people know about you, but I can’t control whether they believe it or not. Our Daqin people are prosperous and our people are simple and honest. If Mr. Yan is interested in coming to our Daqin to develop, I, Xiang Shaolong, can provide some conveniences."
Yan Ping didn't know the terms "science", "geometry", and "physics", but he thought they were all good words, and they sounded lofty. And judging from Xiang Shaolong's meaning, it seemed that he valued these more than
Pay attention to Mohist political propositions.
Yan Ping thought to himself: "If I can spread my Mohist thoughts with the help of Xiang Shaolong, even if everyone can't believe it, but if it is spread widely, more people will naturally believe it. Then I will be a great contributor to Mohism."
I'm done." My heart started to heat up. Although the Mohists could tolerate poverty, they still couldn't achieve "all four elements are empty". After all, people still have desires.
Yan Ping's desire is "fame". He wants to become the leader of Mohists all over the world and write his name in the history of Mohism. His tone became eager and he said: "General Xiang intends to help me write a book about Mohism."
, I am really grateful. As for going to Qin to develop, I have to think about it again. Nowadays, the Mohists in the world are divided into three families: Qi, Chu and Zhao, who are not subordinate to each other. If there is one more family, I am afraid it will be more difficult to integrate in the future.
"
Xiang Shaolong was puzzled: "Why must it be integrated? How can it be integrated?"
Yan Ping said: "We, the Mohists, oppose war. Nowadays, conquests continue in the world. We, the Mohists, want to save the world, so we must integrate the forces of the three Mohists, exert our greatest strength, and strive for our ideals. As for how to integrate, we can obtain the 'Juzi Order'
, you can command all the Mohists in the world."
Xiang Shaolong asked: "Where is Juzi Ling?"
Yan Ping replied: "In the hands of Chu Mojuzi Fudu."
Xiang Shaolong suddenly remembered the story in the original work: Yuan Zong brought the "Ji Zi Ling" to integrate the three Mo, but was chased by Yan Ping. Then he met Xiang Shaolong and taught him Mo Zi's swordsmanship and Ju Zi Ling. Finally,
He fled to Chu State and was killed.
