Chapter 391: The old businessman gave orders and compared them to fishing (6k)
Hearing Aque's words, Zhao Qing thought thoughtfully. A white-haired old man who is good at fishing is waiting for me by the river. Judging from his appearance and age, he should be Wenzi. He even made up a gift for me.
A child's grass ring feels quite childlike.
Speaking of which, compared to the matter of trying to understand the inheritance in the Tomb of King Yu, but still unclear about the details of the process, she was more interested in her meeting with Xin Wenzi, the great master of Taoism and most likely the best master in Yue Di.
, but I am looking forward to it more.
Generally speaking, this kind of inheritance related to ancient tombs should have relatively strict restrictions, and is more inclined to protect the descendants of the tomb owners, that is, the Yue royal family, the Zenge family, and the Yue people who have marriage relationships with them.
Large families, etc.
And if you trace your ancestors back, you probably don't have the bloodline of Dayu. The probability of accepting the inheritance is much lower than the normal inheritance that relies solely on understanding. The harvest is likely to be quite average, but it is better than nothing at all.
It is said that Wenzi came to me specifically at this time. Maybe there is some key news to tell me? Maybe it is related to the next inheritance and enlightenment?
After chatting for a few more words with the middle-aged villagers and their families, Zhao Qing caught a glimpse of the trend of people gathering in the village to watch the excitement. He was not used to explaining to them repeatedly, so his thoughts moved slightly, and he transformed into illusory figures, and came straight to
The place near the river outside the village aims to find the old fisherman mentioned by Aqiao.
…
It was the You hour at this moment, and the sun was setting in the west. Thousands of miles away in Kuaiji City, Sun Di, who was lying idle and sleeping in a stone room under the observatory, was suddenly lifted up by a crutch and turned over suddenly.
I woke up with a start and opened my eyes wide.
"Where is Wenzi? Where has he been? He won't leave me alone, will he?" Sun Di immediately shrank to the corner, pressing the hilt of his sword in his hand, looking at a strange person who appeared in the stone room, and said coldly
He asked: "Who are you? How did you get in here?"
"You can call me 'Shang Yuan', you can also call me 'Old Shangzi'." The strange visitor, wearing a gray-white crane feather cloak, slowly turned around, and saw a full-body Yuxi Yi stick in his hand.
Made of immortal jade, the slender crutch is as heavy as a mountain, yet it gives people a strange feeling of being as light as clouds.
Although this man's back was slightly stooped, the skin exposed on his body did not look aging. However, when he continued to speak, the words he said shocked Sun Di: "If calculated in terms of seniority, Shang should be
He must be Wenzi's uncle. Now that he has something to go out for, please let me take care of you."
Wenzi's uncle? Is there such a hidden figure in the world? Sun Di's mind was full of thoughts, and he quickly thought of the legendary Lao Dan's mentor, Shang Rong, the descendant of the famous sage Shang Rong during the King Zhou period, and guessed it
This Shang Yuan is probably the descendant of Shang Rong.
Thinking that after Wenzi left, his imprisonment should be relaxed and there would be a chance to be broken. Sun Di sighed and asked Shang Yuan: "The elder is here not just for this matter, right? Boy.
I am ignorant and want to ask for advice... maybe I can give my own suggestions..."
However, Shang Yuan smiled coldly and interrupted Sun Di's words. His eyes showed a trace of pity and sighed: "I see your face, you have mouse ears and eagle eyebrows, a straight nose and cheeks, and although your eyes are big,
If the spirit is separated and dispersed, if the way is not clear, it will shrink inward and become a trap, and its ambition will be captured by others."
"A young man succeeds, but like a star shining at night, the short-term light will lead to long-term darkness. If you can keep a low profile, you may still be able to survive. However, your eyes are cunning, and there must be arrogance in your heart."
"Although there is no serious problem this time, the road ahead will be full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will fall into a situation of catastrophe. And your descendants will also have a lot of misfortunes because of your weak will, so that this branch
It has been reduced to the point where sacrifices have been cut off.”
When Sun Di heard Shang Yuan's words, he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart, as if he had already experienced all this, followed by a burst of panic. When he thought of his past, he was indeed a little complacent and acted in a flamboyant way. And his future lies with Shang Yuan.
Some clues can already be seen in his words.
In the past, Shang Rong wanted to assassinate King Zhou but was unable to do so. He fled to the Taihang Mountains and hid in the world. He did not come out from the mountains until King Wu succeeded in defeating Zhou. He mingled with the people who greeted the king's master in court songs. He was high to Duke Zhao, high to Taigong, and Duke of Zhou.
, King Wu’s foreign minister made accurate judgments respectively.
As far as the art of physiognomy is concerned, Shang Rong was undoubtedly the top master at that time, and his descendants seemed to have inherited this skill and successfully discovered extraordinary talents like Lao Dan. Shang Yuan's attainments in physiognomy
, probably no less famous than Bu Ziqing, the most famous fortune teller in the world, and even higher than the number one fortune teller in the Wu Kingdom.
There was a trace of fear and doubt in Sun Di's eyes. After a moment of silence, he looked up at Shang Yuan with a pleading tone in his voice: "I am deeply frightened by the elder's words. However, I still have questions.
.What should I do to avoid the bad luck you mentioned?"
"The secret cannot be revealed, I can only point it out until it ends."
Shang Yuan took a deep look at Sun Di, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and said lightly: "However, according to a theory that has been repeatedly verified, if one can find a specific destiny set by God,
It's not like a person who goes against fate can't modify a thing or two.
"After you leave here, you have to remember: keep a low profile, and don't fight or ask for anything. Don't force anything. Let nature take its course, which may keep you safe. Otherwise, I can predict your future without using any further voyeuristic techniques.
——Walked into danger by mistake, died young, and lost all descendants."
Leave here? Does he want to let me go? After specifically saying these words, does he want me to look for the so-called "disobedient"?
Sun Di couldn't help being extremely surprised. He looked at him intently, only to find that the surrounding environment was shaking. He didn't know when he had appeared in the vast farmland outside Kuaiji City, and he suddenly woke up from a dream.
He came over and regained his freedom.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Over the farmland, at noon, the green rice seedlings only cast almost no blur shadows on their edges, which made him feel confused about time.
I felt this way, and quickly "recalled" the process of leaving the underground stone room and walking straight to this place.
Is this kind of illusory experience that seems to have experienced everything before, the legendary ability of "Tao reflects the flowing light"?
…
Not long after the rain, the river in the deserted village was gurgling with water, and the rising water splashed gentle waves on the rocks on the shore. The air was filled with the smell of moist earth, and the aroma of the grass by the river made people feel refreshed.
On the bank of the small river, in the muddy ditch, a child held a bamboo basket in his hand. With his eyes wide open, he grabbed the loach with great interest. However, because he was not strong enough, even though he touched it for a long time, the water became more and more agitated.
It was so turbid that the loaches had already fled away.
Against the background of the sun, the dense reeds by the river sway in the wind, full of green. Each reed stalk is as straight as a pen, green. From time to time, dragonflies shuttle among the reeds, flying lightly.
Suddenly, a string of bubbles appeared in the water, as if some creature was breathing underwater. Then, with a croaking sound, several frogs jumped out of the water plants and disappeared into the bushes on the shore. The child was frightened.
When I jumped, my feet accidentally slipped and I sat on my butt in the ditch.
At the same time, on the other side of the reeds, three gray-brown heads poked out. They were a big roe deer and two small roe deer coming to the river to drink water. When they drank water, they gently probed with their noses.
When you enter the water, you feel as if you are feeling the temperature and breath of the river.
While the two little roe deer were drinking water, the big roe deer carefully observed the surrounding environment, especially the child on the other side who was catching a loach. Although the child did not seem to be in danger, he still remained vigilant and protected his cub.
, just in case something unexpected happens.
Catching a glimpse of the scenery beside the small river from a distance, Zhao Qing suddenly became envious of the childlike fun that the children in the village could easily get. Then he looked far into the distance, looking across the winding river and the heavy reeds, and landed on
On a stone pier and wooden beam bridge three or four miles away.
On this ancient bridge made of a dozen beams and a large bluestone in the middle of the river, sat an old man wearing a grass-green coir raincoat. He wore a bamboo hat on his head and held a fishing rod in his hand.
Dressed in a standard fisherman's attire, he stared at the water with his lowered eyes, as if waiting for something.
Continuing to get closer, she saw the old man's raincoat fluttering gently in the breeze. His face under the bamboo hat looked peaceful and mysterious. Although his hair had turned white, it was still thick and shiny. Although his face had the marks of time,
There are no traces, but the handsomeness and fortitude of his youth can still be seen.
Looking carefully, I saw that the other person was in high spirits, with a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water, and a soft smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, which made people feel friendly and warm. The old man's beard and hair sparkled in the sun, as if carrying the vicissitudes of the years, and giving it another
People have a feeling that the more they look at it, the younger they become.
The river water under the bridge was crystal clear, and a group of golden carps that were almost the same as what Zhao Qing had seen were swimming around him in the river water, jumping out of the water from time to time, or spitting out a few strings of colorful bubbles.
The backs of these golden carps have glittering star patterns, which separate the clear and turbid, forming a gathering point for the water flow. A large number of ordinary fish follow the golden carp in the parade, like stars holding the moon, which inexplicably gives people the feeling of fishing from heaven and earth.
The river water seems to have turned into a Milky Way.
The old man's movements and expression were so elegant and calm, as if he was part of the scenery by the river, integrated with nature. The river turned into a vast and endless Milky Way, and what he was fishing for were stars, which was both illusory and
heavy.
After confirming the identity of the other party in his heart, Zhao Qing walked gently towards the wooden bridge, slowly came to the side of the bridge, and sat down on a bluestone by the river so as not to disturb the old man's fishing.
Soon, she caught a carp from the water that looked solid but was an illusory shadow in her eyes. She took it out and put it into the fish basket. The old man slowly raised his head and looked at Zhao Qing with a pair of clear eyes, as if he could see through it.
captured her heart, and then smiled:
"Are you Zhao Qing? My name is Xinlu, and my courtesy name is Wenzi. I have been waiting here for you for a long time."
Shaking the bamboo basket that seemed to be full of catch, Xin Wenzi put away the fishing rod and continued to speak calmly: "No matter what you want to ask, please put it down for now. Let me tell you a story first...
"
"You?" Zhao Qing's heart moved, and he immediately turned his head and looked towards the other side of the wooden bridge. He saw at some point, a golden carp came down the bridge and joined the group of golden carps under the bridge. Together with them, they formed a group of golden carps.
She drew a star map that included the twenty-eight constellations, and what followed closely behind was the Monkey King that she was very familiar with.
…
Bathed in the warm sunshine, the ape male sitting on the strong head goat was actually directing the group of goats, making them trot along the river with neat steps, just like a team performing military rituals.
Soldiers, mighty and dignified.
After realizing Zhao Qing's amazing training ability and the rapid improvement of Zheng Dan's status as a "stranger", Yuan Gong couldn't help but compare Zheng Dan with himself, analyzed their respective advantages and disadvantages, and felt that he was also
It should develop a certain power.
As we all know, the minds of herbivores are purer than those of most humans, close to the level of infants and young children. Although due to limited intelligence, except for special individuals with extraordinary talents like the ape male, they cannot practice complex and changeable energy.
Law;
But if you start from the Qi refining system, especially the Buddhist exercises that pay the most attention to the spiritual realm, such as the "Shen Zhao Jing", "Yi Jin Jing", "Shen Zu Jing" and other excellent internal skills that do not require high "intelligence", then that is another way.
A completely different conclusion.
Especially for the "Shenzu Sutra", in theory, you only need to put your body into strange movements and postures, and you can start, practice, and improve your skills spontaneously. It can also refine external toxins to quickly increase the internal strength of your true energy.
And it has the characteristics carried by poison.
There is no doubt that this technique is exactly in line with the expectations of the Monkey King, allowing the animals specially trained by him to grow rapidly and become his allies and reliable subordinates.
After learning about the existence of the "Sacred Foot Sutra" from Zhao Qing, as well as the experiments on the stone wall of the Lingjiu Palace that allowed birds and beasts to practice internal skills, the Monkey King gradually came up with the idea of adapting the former into multiple animal versions, and
It is hoped that preliminary attempts will be made on medium and large mammals such as cattle, horses, sheep, and pigs whose meridian structures are similar to humans.
So, the ape male began to train the goats that had a good relationship with him, and asked them to exercise according to specific movements. Seeing that these goats spent some time under his guidance, their movements gradually became uniform, and the ape male's movements became uniform.
I was quite satisfied.
Start by training goats, gradually subdue the surrounding beasts, expand the territory, and then recruit intelligent birds and beasts, let them serve as team captains and lords, and gradually build a powerful animal kingdom. This idea is like a seed in its heart
, began to take root and sprout.
Since there is no territorial dispute with humans, the White Ape Kingdom should not encounter many significant opponents in the process of expansion. Theoretically, it can cover the 19,000-mile Kuaiji Mountain, or even ten times the area.
This is a vast mountainous area in southern Vietnam.
However, compared with the Zhao Qing plan that it had recently learned about, Yuan Gong still felt that he seemed too traditional and conservative, with nothing new and needed to achieve further innovation and breakthroughs.
At this moment, he received a reminder from the golden carp mark on his body. The ape man knew that a wise man was fishing nearby, waiting for him and Zhao Qing. After hesitating for a moment, he led the Aries team over and followed the man on the other side of the bridge.
Zhao Qing looked at each other, nodded, and agreed to listen to the story.
…
"That's right, I've been thinking about something recently and want to share it with you two." Xin Wenzi took off his bamboo hat, looked straight at the mist-shrouded mountains in the distance, and said with a smile: "Xin has been fishing for so many years, and it's not like this."
I met many interesting fishing friends..."
“There are those who build giant fishing carts as big as mountain peaks, connect the fishing carts to the entire Kuaiji Mountains, prepare unprecedentedly large hooks, and throw the rods into the depths of the East China Sea, hoping to catch the ancient Kun at once; there are also those who use Yi Yi
Shooting fish, once used an arrow to kill a horned dragon that turned into a carp..."
"Compared with their grand plans and amazing harvests, my own fishing skills don't have much to show off." After a pause, Wenzi continued: "However, what I want to talk about this time is
He is another fisherman who strives for excellence and is extremely persistent.”
Guessing the identities of the two fishermen mentioned by Wenzi, they should be Mr. Ren and Yuqie of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Qing was slightly shocked. He couldn't help but become interested in the story of the third fishermen and listened attentively.
"As for fishing, I just enjoy the fun in the process, but this friend often asks me and other fishermen about the techniques, and wants to know what strategies should be adopted when using fishing gear of the same value.
Only then can we harvest the most fish and shrimp.”
Wenzi added: "Realizing that the other party was pursuing the highest efficiency of fishing, I thought for a while and replied that under different costs and starting from the two major directions of long-term goals and short-term harvest, each has a different answer.
, cannot be generalized.”
"For example, if we don't have money, we can go to the river beach or ditch to catch fish with our hands, or use sticks to catch fish. This is the simplest, most original method, and the lowest cost method, just like the country children
Catching loaches is an introductory stage of fishing.”
"If we have a big coin, we can go to the market to buy fishing lines, fish hooks, homemade bamboo poles, prepare good bait, and use fishing methods. If we have good fishing skills and sufficient patience, the harvest can be greatly increased.
, has entered the primary stage of fishing.”
"If you have a capital of ten big coins, purchasing a fishing net of suitable size and density, and fishing on a large scale where fish gather is the first choice. In terms of fishing efficiency, it will undoubtedly be far better than
Fishing that can only catch one fish at a time is considered the intermediate stage of fishing.”
"Once you have a capital of one thousand large coins or more, you can dig and build a fish pond of five to ten acres, buy fry and breed them, so as to get rid of the fish that often cannot be found when fishing in the net, and earn income
The flaw of instability...this is the advanced stage of fishing.”
"Speaking of which, my friend interrupted and said that he had recently inherited his father's assets and had already made plans to raise fish ponds, which is what I call the advanced stage of fishing." Wenzi smiled and continued:
"So what he really wants to ask is how to run his own fish pond."
"Manage your own fish pond?" Mr. Yuan has a straightforward temperament. He always feels that there is something in the other person's words, so he can't help but interject: "This fish pond shouldn't be that simple, right? It sounds like it may refer to a big force?"
Wenzi didn't take Bai Yuan's words seriously. Wenzi just smiled slightly, seemingly acquiescing to this statement, and continued:
"It just so happened that I also had some personal opinions on this issue, so I shared with him: The key to fish pond farming lies in the timing of placing fish fry, ensuring water quality, feeding feed, and final screening during fishing, and obtaining good results.
Conduct regular inspections.”
"The flow rate of water, water temperature, water quality, etc. will all have an impact on the growth and reproduction of fish. Therefore, the water in the fish pond is best obtained from natural water sources such as mountain streams, rivers and lakes. At the same time, the pond water must be maintained
The liquidity allows it to circulate frequently..."
"When placing fish fry, you should choose varieties with strong vitality and fast growth. Don't be fooled by those with gorgeous appearance. Moreover, you must clearly distinguish the living habits of various fishes, reasonably mix different types, and maintain a balanced state.
…”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It must be mentioned that if the number of fish in a single fish pond reaches a certain number, a dragon transformed from a fish is likely to be born, taking the entire
All the fish in the fish pond flew away together. Therefore, some turtles must be bred in the pond to act as guards and hinder this..."
At this point, Zhao Qing has already realized that Wenzi is actually using the method of fish farming as a metaphor for governing the country. The "fisherman" is the king of a country, the big fish and the small fish, and the shrimps and worms represent officials and civilians at all levels.
Water is equivalent to the most fundamental 'economic' basis?
And his friend who inherited the "fish pond" from his father's generation should refer to the Yue King Gou Jian? By the way, after yesterday's battle, Gou Jian should summon him soon. Wenzi wanted me to do a good job in advance.
Are you ready?
“After listening to my advice on fish farming, my friend’s fish ponds had great harvests for several years, so he specially told me the good news.”
Wenzi said calmly: "I reminded him, now that you have saved enough capital to buy other fish ponds, why do you still focus on a small pond instead of taking a broader view? A person
Although the area of fish ponds that can be managed is limited, you can definitely hire other people to do it."
This is the development from the tribal and Fang Kingdom era to the feudal dynasty, right? Zhao Qing was thoughtful, his thoughts moved slightly, and he said: "I heard that many fishing nets were fixed on rivers and lakes.
Above it, enclosing a water area can also play a similar role to a fish pond."
"Not bad!" Wenzi agreed and continued: "This further method, let's call it 'cage culture', can connect the water sources between multiple fish ponds, and can also be used in one cage.
In the farm, different cage sizes and depths are set up according to the growth needs of different fish."
In Zhao Qing's opinion, the separated "fish ponds" have been reunited into one, which is already the state of a "unified" centralized empire. However, Wenzi has not finished his words yet:
"If the cost reaches hundreds or thousands of gold, you can consider using the power of magic to build a batch of fully automatic detection, opening and closing cages, which can automatically adjust the cages by automatically detecting the number and growth status of fish.
size and depth, adapted to their needs."
"In this case, the life of the fish in the 'pond' is almost the same as the way they were free in the rivers, lakes and seas at first. They are not even aware that they are in captivity, but they have some problems in terms of food and safety.
With higher guarantee, output and quality can reach the highest level.”
Isn't this just ruling by doing nothing? Zhao Qing said that he fully understood what Wenzi meant, and vaguely guessed that what the other party was going to say next should be that King Goujian of Yue wanted to "raise fish" according to Wenzi's instructions, but he encountered another problem.
new difficulties.
However, the next moment, Wenzi's words gave Zhao Qing an unexpected feeling: "The principle of fish pond farming, placed on cultivation, also has a corresponding relationship, involving the operation of the rules of heaven and earth.
The theory, perhaps, can be called the 'Tao Yun Transaction Theory'."
