The Confucian scholars in Qi and Lu were really angry today. In their view, Mr. Zou simply surrendered.
In the past, Mr. Zou was generous with his wealth and prayed for the people. What kind of good person was he? Why did everything suddenly change?
It is said that the banished immortal has the ability to infect others. It makes others become as shameless as banishing immortals. In the past, everyone didn't believe it and thought it was a bit too mysterious.
But now looking at Mr. Zou, the Confucian scholars really have some ideas in their minds.
Is this shameless? Is it really contagious?
If it's not contagious, what's going on with Mr. Zou? How to explain this living example?
If shamelessness is indeed contagious, how is it contagious?
The Confucian scholars were puzzled, and finally decided to try their best to save Mr. Zou.
Even if Mr. Zou was a little shameless just now, even if Mr. Zou talks about vulgar money, it is disgusting.
However, Mr. Zou was once an upright and kind-hearted person after all. Maybe he just went astray today. Before he gets too deep, there may be a chance to save him.
Thinking of this, the Confucian scholars said to Master Zou with emotion on their faces: "We remember that you used to value justice over profit, and you were a very good person. What has happened recently? Why is this so?"
The concerned faces of the Confucian scholars made Mr. Zou feel very unhappy, as if he had committed some heinous crime and was waiting for others to save him.
Master Zou said quietly: "I learned all this from you Confucian scholars."
The Confucian scholars from Qi and Lu were stunned for a moment, and then started to get angry. They pointed at Mr. Zou and said, "It's just for no reason. Please don't slander us. When did we do such a thing?"
Mr. Zou laughed and said to the Confucian scholars: "It is true that you have not done such a thing, but didn't Chunyu Yue do it? Isn't Chunyu Yue your Confucian leader?"
Master Zou mentioned that Chun Yuyue's purpose was to use the spear of the son to attack the shield of the son. That means, look, all the leaders among you Confucian scholars are doing this kind of thing, and you are still talking about me?
Mr. Zou kept talking, and said with a bit of pride: "How much profit has Chunyu Yue made recently? I once helped him calculate an account. In the inn alone, we welcome people and send them to and from them every day..."
Before Mr. Zou finished speaking, those Confucian scholars became anxious and said angrily: "How can this be true? How can it be true? Chunyu Yue is not as good as a pig or a dog, how can he be regarded as a Confucian leader?"
Mr. Zou was slightly startled: "Isn't Chunyu Yue a doctor in the imperial court..."
The Confucian scholars snorted coldly: "Doctor is a piece of shit. He has now degenerated and is no longer a Confucian scholar."
Mr. Zou looked confused: "Dr. Chunyu, is he no longer a Confucian scholar? Doesn't he want to be a Confucian scholar anymore?"
Confucian scholars from Qi and Lu sneered: "It's not a question of whether he wants to do it, but a question of whether we let him do it."
"Chun Yuyue was shameless and associates with shameless people like Huai Guzi. We have expelled him. From now on, he is no longer a Confucian scholar."
Master Zou looked confused: "Is this okay?"
After the discussion, Chunyu Yue. The Confucian scholars looked at Mr. Zou with sincere faces: "Don't go astray like Chun Yuyue."
Master Zou asked curiously: "How can I be a merchant even if I go astray?"
The Confucian scholars were a little impatient: "Didn't I tell you clearly and clearly just now?"
"Being a businessman, you will definitely be scheming and only seeking profit. How many gentlemen can there be among such people? Most of them are villains."
Mr. Zou said: "But if Chunyu Yue did not become a merchant, Chunyu Inn would no longer exist. The people who got off the train were tired, hungry, hungry and thirsty. What should they do? Is it possible that Chunyu Inn would no longer exist? Are you going to sleep on the streets?”
"That's alright with the hot summer days. What if it's nine cold days and the twelfth lunar month of winter? What if one or two people freeze to death? Is this the benevolence that you all remember so much?"
The Confucian scholars were slightly stunned. They did not expect that Mr. Zou could actually refute their own views.
However, among all the schools of thought, who is not good at debating? These Confucian scholars suddenly became energetic and wanted to debate with Mr. Zou.
They said: "Master Zou, what you said is wrong. If there were no Chunyu Hotel, wouldn't those travelers have nowhere to stay? I don't think so."
"After they get off the train, they can find a farmer, give them some money, and stay for one night. In this way, those poor people get money, and pedestrians also have a place to stay. Isn't it great? It's better than Wouldn't it be much better to let Chunyu Yue earn the money?"
Mr. Zou exclaimed: "So it can be like this."
The Confucian scholars were a little proud.
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Zou said: "However, there is still one thing I don't understand. If there are bad people pretending to be pedestrians and living in the homes of nearby people."
"At night, in the dead of night, this gangster suddenly attacks, kills all the owner's family, and then takes away the property. What should I do?"
Confucian scholar: "Huh?"
Mr. Zou added: "Or maybe the people in the farmhouse today are not good people. They usually idle around and do not do their jobs properly."
"What if he suddenly saw that the new guest had abundant supplies, so he had evil thoughts and killed the guest and took away his belongings?"
"Anyway, the guest comes from afar and no one knows him. Even if he is killed, no one knows about it, so what?"
The Confucian scholars were stunned.
They thought for a long time and then said: "But hasn't it been like this since ancient times? When you go out, you have to stay in a nearby farmhouse."
"It's inherently dangerous to go out."
Mr. Zou chuckled: "Is this true since ancient times? There has never been an emperor since ancient times. Do you want your Majesty to..."
The Confucian scholars turned pale with fright. They suddenly realized that Master Zou's words seemed a bit familiar. It's very similar to the habits of that shameless person Huaiguzi.
Fortunately, Master Zou did not delve into the issue of rebellion. He said calmly: "Now, we have Chunyu Hotel. Chunyu Hotel is Master Chunyu's property. Each hotel has a specific mark. Anyone who stays there will get a piece of paper with the location of hotels across the country.”
"In this way, you don't have to worry about people who do evil things impersonating you."
"Dr. Chunyu is a great scholar in the world and an important minister in the court. He will definitely not do things like killing people and stealing goods."
"And since all the pedestrians are staying in the inn, no one will bother the farmer. If someone knocks on the farmer's door in the middle of the night and lies about wanting to stay overnight, he is most likely a criminal."
“In this way, farmers and guests are safe, isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
The Confucian scholars were speechless. They always felt that something was wrong here.
But they couldn't figure out what was wrong.
At this time, a Confucian scholar had an idea and finally figured out what was wrong with it.
He said to Mr. Zou: "Originally, the people were very poor, and they could get some money to subsidize their families by relying on the customers. Although it was a little dangerous, they made money after all."
"But what now? They have lost their way to make money. Now they are indeed safe, but what is the use of such safety? They were indeed not killed by thieves, but they were killed by poverty. Isn't it still a death? "
Mr. Zou laughed loudly and said to the Confucian scholar: "I said before that you stick to your study and have no knowledge of affairs. You are still not convinced. Now isn't it confirmed?"
"Do you think, where do the waiters in Chunyu's Inn come from? Where do the people who serve food and wine come from? Where do the people who tidy up guest rooms come from?"
"These are all recruited from nearby farmhouses. They stay at Chunyu Inn and make much more money than before. Moreover, their income is stable and there is no risk."
"This is true kindness to the local people. As you just said, let the people risk their lives to make a little money."
"Isn't human life more valuable than money? You keep saying that Dr. Chunyu and I have got into the eyes of money, but why do I think that you are the ones who have got into the eyes of money?"
The faces of the Confucian scholars were blue and white, and they were speechless.
Master Zou now spoke more earnestly. He said to the Confucian scholars: "You know that it is dangerous to let passersby stay in the farmhouse, but you don't want to change and stick to the incompleteness. Is this benevolence?"
"In my opinion, Dr. Chunyu is not afraid of rumors, and he practices businessmanship as a Confucian leader so that the people can have enough to eat."
"Even though ten thousand people have gone there, I am really admirable. Such a person deserves to be called a great scholar of the world."
Master Zou praised Chunyu Yue endlessly. Those Confucian scholars found excuses and slipped away one after another.
After they left Lord Zou's home, they were a little confused: "Is Chunyu Yue right? Is Lord Zou right? Could it be that we are wrong?"
Soon, someone reacted and said to his companion: "That's not right. We are not looking for Lord Zou to discuss Chun Yuyue's rights and wrongs at all. We are asking him to advise the emperor and practice frugality. We must not know what the topic is. During the period, were you led astray?"
The Confucian scholars around him also reacted, and they planned to go back to discuss the matter with Mr. Zou.
But... But I was speechless just now, and now I want to go back? I'm really embarrassed.
Moreover, after the Confucian scholars saw Mr. Zou's ability to quarrel with others, they no longer wanted to argue with him.
Finally, these Confucian scholars decided to change people and go to other people's homes to lobby.
After the Confucian scholars left, Mr. Zou came to his study room and started reading with great interest again.
This book was just bought from Xianyang City by someone. It is a new book from Shangjun Courtyard, and its name is "Introduction to Immortal Studies".
Introduction to Immortal Science was written by Zhou Qingchen and others, who recorded Li Shui's words and deeds in order to elaborate on his thoughts.
There are a large number of debates and examples in it, which can be called the contemporary Analects of Confucius.
Mr. Zou became more and more excited as he read it. He felt that this book was really wonderful and beneficial.
…………
The Confucian scholars found Mr. Lu again.
As a result, Master Lu and Master Zou had the same attitude, and they all criticized the Confucian scholars.
I don’t know why, but Mr. Lu, who was usually clumsy and tongue-tied, now speaks clearly and eloquently.
This left the Confucian scholars a little confused.
What on earth is going on in this world?
In fact, Master Lu, like Master Zou, also bought Introduction to Immortality. He read it all night last night, and now he can be said to have mastered it.
Today I took these Confucian scholars to test their skills, and they turned out to be surprisingly easy to use.
Mr. Lu suddenly realized that he knew too little about this world before. After reading Introduction to Immortal Science, this complicated and complicated world seemed to gradually become clearer...
After sending away the Confucian scholars, Mr. Lu held the Introduction to Immortal Studies and began to study it carefully.
I used to think that these laws and the economic base and superstructure were very difficult to explain and difficult to understand, but now after practicing them, Mr. Lu has completely fallen in love with them.
This... this is simply a sharp weapon for walking in the world.
On this day, the Confucian scholars ran around and found many people, but they hit a wall every time.
These people don't know what's going on. They are all eloquent and unable to refute themselves.
Until they passed Chunyu Bookstore, they heard the bookstore clerk shouting: "Everyone, everyone, don't miss it when you pass by. Our store has a new introduction to Xianxue."
"The introduction to immortality is the essence of the half-life of the Immortal. If you understand the introduction to immortality, you will be able to handle it with ease, just like the immortal. With literature, you can defeat the Confucian scholars, and with martial arts, you can stabilize the world. With both civil and military skills, he is a model for the world."
The guy's voice was so alluring that a few Confucian scholars couldn't help but want to buy a copy and read it.
Of course, when they bought Introduction to Immortal Science, they definitely did not want to change their appearance and join the exile of immortals, but to... know themselves and their enemies, so that they can fight without danger.
Yes, that's the purpose.
The Confucian scholars pooled their money and recommended the most shameless one, and then entered Chunyu's book shop.
He handed over the money and said with a slight blush: "Buy an introduction to immortality."
The guy took the money and shouted loudly: "Mr. Meng, a Confucian scholar from Qi, has bought an introduction to immortality."
Confucian scholar: "..."
He took the book and ran away in a hurry.
And the waiter's shout just now successfully attracted another wave of customers.
After all...even Confucian scholars came to buy Introduction to Immortality, which shows that Introduction to Immortality is really good.
After all, everyone knows that banished immortals and Confucian scholars have never dealt with each other.
The Confucian scholars found a secluded place and began to study the introduction to immortality carefully.
They read books with prejudices in mind, so they don't take the content in the book seriously and find faults with it.
When I was happily choosing, there was a sudden click next to me, followed by a flash of white light.
The Confucian scholars were slightly stunned. When they turned around to look, they found a man holding a camera and taking a picture of them.
The Confucian scholars shouted: "What do you do?"
The man ran away with the camera.
The Confucian scholars didn't pay much attention and continued to study the introduction to immortality.
It wasn't until night that they realized something was wrong.
The General tabloid, the Qidi branch, published the photo and captioned it: Confucian students from Qi and Lu studied the introduction to immortality seriously, hungry and thirsty, and forgetting to eat and sleep.
