Lin Yue did not respond directly to her question.
Picking up a piece of white paper and spreading it on the desk, he took off a wolf-hair pen hanging on the pen holder, carefully dipped it in the ink in the inkstone, and wrote a paragraph on the white paper.
Yes, it was the focus of the discussion between the two.
Zhang Zai's Four Sentences on Hengqu.
Establish a mind for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the living people, carry forward the unique knowledge for the past saints, and create peace for all generations.
He read it in a low voice before putting down the brush.
"To establish a heart for heaven and earth, what is heaven and what is earth in history? The emperor is both heaven and earth. To establish a heart for heaven and earth is actually to teach the emperor to have principles and bottom lines, to distinguish right from wrong, to know honor and disgrace, and to implement benevolent policies. Once heaven and earth have a heart, they will There will be no consequences for the emperor to lay down millions of corpses due to his own selfish desires. With diligent administration and close relatives and virtuous people, the country will naturally be peaceful and the people will be able to cultivate their moral integrity and build their lives. To carry forward the unique knowledge of the saints and create peace for all generations. Zhang Zai was a great scholar in the Song Dynasty. The past in his mind It is self-evident who the saint is, but in my opinion, Lao Tzu, Mo Tzu, Lu Ban... and tens of millions of people in later generations who have contributed to Chinese civilization are all included in this list. Dynasties change, the sun and the moon rotate, and the world changes. Group after group, the civilization that has always stood in the East has not been destroyed by barbarism. It continues to tolerate and assimilate those foreign people and things. Simply put, as long as the living people have a heart to identify with the Chinese civilization, the Chinese nation will It will never die out. It is said that it takes ten years for trees to grow and a hundred years to cultivate people. In modern war, as long as the invader slaughters all the professors, doctors, scientists, and engineers of the opposite country, even if it loses in the end, the opposite country will not be able to survive for a hundred years. Recovering one's vitality, we can see how precious the people who carry on the unique learning for the saint are. As long as they are here, as long as the thought and spirit of the saint are passed down from generation to generation, people like Wang Anshi will continue to emerge, not to mention far away, but close to home. Well, take Mr. Lu Xun as an example. According to your logic, wouldn’t it be more pragmatic for him to be a doctor than a writer? So in terms of structure, Zhang Zai is still above Wang Anshi, so is this sentence big? It’s not big, it’s empty Really? It’s not false, it’s just that you can’t understand its essence.”
Jin Yueji gave him such a long, slow and unhurried speech that made him a little confused.
She knew Zhou Zhigang's background very well, but what about the three children of the old Zhou family... Zhou Bingyi was admitted to Peking University, but because he had to take care of Li Suhua, he did not go to university. Fortunately, he got a correspondence degree while Jichun was working. Needless to say, Er Zhou Rong, this old Zhou Zhou Bingkun was expelled from Tsinghua University, but to be fair, he seems to be more sharp, not the kind of sharpness that the less you know, the more arrogant, but the kind of sharpness bred by full confidence. .
"Actually, when I said those words to your elder brother..."
"It's to inspire him to accept your kindness and do some practical things, rather than what you think is a somewhat frivolous job, right?"
These words shocked Jin Yueji. What happened to this kid? He is not yet forty, so how can he speak directly to people's hearts and be more mature and sophisticated than her?
"So this is the problem." Lin Yue said: "I don't want my children to live in a family where they have to pay attention to methods even when they speak, and even express their opinions carefully. They even beat around the bush. So, I don't approve of Hao My family’s living environment does not recognize people like you, and I don’t want Zheng Juan to suffer the pain of giving birth and raising a child again. Farewell.”
Lin Yue left.
Jin Yueji didn't go to send it off, not because she was angry, but because she lost her temper.
Look at what he said. He not only rejected her request with very convincing reasons, but also secretly exposed her scars. What would a child growing up in a family like the Hao family look like?
Innocent? cute? Sunlight? optimism? simple?
It seems difficult to match such an adjective.
After Lin Yue left, her eyes moved to the white paper on the desk. She frowned when she saw the words on it. After a few breaths, as if something suddenly occurred to her, she walked into the storage room and found Ouyang from the vat where the paintings and calligraphy were placed. Kaiduo returned to the living room and unfolded the painting she wrote to her husband.
From handwriting to style, they are almost identical.
What happened to the third child of the Zhou family?
…
On the fifth day of the lunar month, the Six Gentlemen went to Ma Shou Chang's house to pay New Year's greetings and the party broke up unhappy.
Lu Chuan returned to Beijing with some dissatisfaction, Tang Xiangyang continued to work in his chemical institute, and Sun Qianchao and Yu Hong pretended not to know what happened.
Xiao Guoqing really took out the money to pay the rent for Zhou Bingkun, who had been corrupted and deteriorated by the colorful world in the south. But he couldn't find a place to live, so he gave the money to old Zhou's house and kicked Zhou Zhigang out. , saying that he had come to the wrong place. He did not have such an unfilial son, and he did not know whether he was really disappointed with his younger son and wanted to sever the relationship between father and son, or whether he said this deliberately to get Xiao Guoqing out. In short, after being scolded by Wu Qian After a meal, he went home exhausted.
As for Qiao Chunyan and Cao Debao... I didn't see them arguing for divorce or anything.
In the TV series, Qiao Chunyan didn't make much fuss after knowing that Cao Debao had cheated, and reconciled within a few days. The same is true here. Is it because she likes this soft-hearted man too much, or is she considering not wanting to divorce for the sake of her children, or is she thinking about it. , realized that it was Zhou Bingkun who was behind the divorce plan and didn't want him to succeed. In short, the matter calmed down quietly.
However, the lack of divorce does not mean that Cao Debao is in a good situation. As soon as work started after the Spring Festival, Wu Yuzhao fucked Cao Debao, the sales section chief, and he was not thrown back to the slag discharging workshop as the director, but as an ordinary worker. I think Cao Debao also worked in the soy sauce factory. The old employee, this was simply humiliating. In anger, he bought out his seniority and left.
According to what he said when chatting with Sun Qianchao and Xiao Guoqing, even if Zhou Bingkun persuaded Li Xianrong to agree to invest in Jichun, he would not be able to save the soy sauce factory, because unlike enterprises like Hongxing Wood Processing Factory, which have a large amount of forest resources to utilize, Songhuajiang brand soy sauce is not very competitive compared with products from other provinces and cities across the country, and because there are so many people to support, the workers are used to eating from a big pot, and their work efficiency is low. Not to mention the high cost of some self-employed condiment workshops, it is just a comparison. The soy sauce factories in Jiangsu and Zhejiang also have big shortcomings. The simplest point is that the country now imports a large amount of soybeans from the United States, Canada, and Brazil, and the price is much cheaper than soybeans from the Northeast. Once the ships from outside arrive at the port, some of the wheat and soybeans Going directly to a soy sauce factory in a nearby province not only lowers the price of raw materials, but also saves transportation costs. How else can I do this business?
These were all the information he got when he was the head of the sales department. Not to mention, they were quite reasonable. At least they frightened Sun Qunchao and Xiao Guoqing into thinking that the soy sauce factory was doomed.
…
February has passed.
March has passed.
It was not until April that the soy sauce factory was unable to pay wages despite selling iron, and Wu Yuzhao was so worried that Lin Yue took Li Xianrong back to Jichun. After several rounds of negotiations, he obtained the contract management rights of the soy sauce factory at a very low price.
Wu Yuzhao breathed a sigh of relief.
Qu Xiuzhen also breathed a sigh of relief.
"You must have been away for almost two months on purpose, in order to make Wu Yuzhao anxious so that you can gain favorable conditions in the negotiations."
"no."
"You want to lie to me again?"
Lin Yue and Qu Xiuzhen were walking on the long embankment of the Songhua River. The beauty of April in the world is that even in the northeast of the motherland, there is already a spring atmosphere. The apricot trees and elm plum blossoms in the distance are in full bloom. Pedestrians I stopped wearing thick cotton-padded jackets and put on long johns and windbreaker.
"No, I went to the United States in mid-March."
"Go to America? What are you going to America for?"
"Because we had to rush to negotiate a cooperation with IBM before ASUS, it was delayed a little bit."
"ASUS? IBM?"
Qu Xiuzhen was confused by these two names.
Lin Yue explained patiently: "Do you know about computers?"
"Computer? I know this. My son told me when he came back during the Spring Festival that this is popular abroad."
"Not only is it popular abroad, but the domestic market will also develop in a few years. Generally speaking, this computer has six major components: motherboard, central processing unit, graphics card, hard drive, memory, and monitor. IBM is the largest individual company in the United States. Computer manufacturer, I went to the United States this time just to get the motherboard order."
"Is this a new product from the electronics factory?"
"Yes, the market competition for electronic products such as televisions and tape recorders is becoming increasingly fierce. Tiancheng is gradually phasing out backward production capacity and transitioning towards the production of components related to emerging electronic products such as digital cameras, VCDs, computers..."
"VCD? What is a VCD?"
"You will know soon." Lin Yue winked at her and said, "When something is made, you will be the first one to use it."
Qu Xiuzhen laughed and scolded: "Where do you get all these crazy ideas?"
"The charm of science is that it can be imagined infinitely."
"Okay, stop showing off your power here and talk about something practical. How do you plan to save the soy sauce factory?"
