Lu Daoyuan is the richest man in Wuzhong. His courtyard is a typical Jiangnan garden, deep and quiet. Pavilions, platforms, towers, pavilions, pavilions, pavilions and boats are all in good order. In the artificial lake, there are many strange stones, nanmu columns and purple sand basins, elegance and luxury.
According to Lu Daoyuan's status, he doesn't think highly of people like Xie Xun. If he has money, are he afraid that he won't be able to hire bodyguards? However, through conversations with Xie Xun along the way, Lu Xian felt that this person had extraordinary knowledge, so he recommended him to his master.
Lu Daoyuan is in his fifties, elegant and elegant, in sharp contrast to Xie Xun.
Lu Daoyuan said to Xie Xun, "Thank you for your hard work all the way, strong man."
Xie Xun said: "It's not hard work. Manager Lu took good care of me all the way. I enjoyed the blessings all the way. And I didn't do much on the way. I deserve this hundred golds."
Lu Daoyuan said: "Xie Zhuangshi deserves this reward. Just protecting my goods in the northwest is more than that. If the goods were lost at that time, how could anything happen later."
Xie Xun said: "You have received the award from Yuan Lu."
Lu Daoyuan continued: "I heard Lu Xian say that Xie Zhuangshi is a man who is proficient in business, which surprised me."
Xie Xun said: "I dare not say that I am proficient. It is just some personal ideas and arm's length talks on paper. I have only been practicing martial arts for these years, so how can I do any business."
Lu Daoyuan said: "It's just a personal idea. I'm also very interested. Lu Xian can be valued. He is a veteran in business. What does Xie Zhuangshi think the key to doing business is?"
Xie Xun felt that this proposition was too big. There were so many businesses and they were all different, so it was impossible to generalize. The world economy that I have experienced covers such a vast area. Industry, finance, and the virtual economy each have their own characteristics. People’s lifestyles have to change. Some of them don’t know where to start.
Xie Xun thought about it, and based on people's understanding of business at this time, he could only say in a general way: "Get profits from righteousness, and avoid wealth by following righteousness."
Lu Daoyuan said: "What's the explanation?"
Xie Xundao: "Doing business depends on trustworthiness and making money through trustworthiness. If you use fraudulent means, you will not achieve anything big. Everyone in the world says: There is no business without treachery, but I think that reputation is the most important thing for those who can truly become top businessmen. The important thing is that the words he speaks out are convincing. Even if such a person is in some danger, it will not be difficult for him to make a comeback."
Lu Daoyuan praised: "Excellent opinion. Seeing profit and forgetting one's righteousness is something I would never do. Mr. Xie, at such a young age and having never done business, he is able to have such an insight. He is indeed a genius."
Xie Xun and Lu Daoyuan talked happily. Lu Daoyuan valued Xie Xun very much. He knew that Xie Xun had not actually done business, so he sincerely passed on some of his experiences and insights. Some of Xie Xun's ideas also made Lu Daoyuan's eyes light up, and he felt like he had a sudden enlightenment.
Xie Xun also saw that Lu Daoyuan was a kind-hearted person. He moved in his heart and said to Lu Daoyuan: "I would like to cooperate with Lu Yuanwai and do some business."
Lu Daoyuan became interested and asked, "Is there any good business you can do for me?"
Xie Xun said: "The current wine is too inferior. I have a more advanced purification process. I will use this technology to become a shareholder and we will cooperate in making wine."
Lu Daoyuan said in surprise: "It's rare that Mr. Xie understands technical matters. It's rare. Mr. Xie will stay for a few more days and we will make detailed arrangements for cooperation."
Xie Xun said: "Okay, I will make some samples for you first, and you can see how much they are worth. Yuan Lu, please don't call me a strong man or a strong man any more. I'll give you my condolences."
Lu Daoyuan said: "Okay, then we are no longer outsiders. Tuisi, let me help you. How about you call me Uncle Lu?"
Xie Xun said: "That's what you should do, Uncle Lu."
Lu Daoyuan laughed heartily and applauded repeatedly.
The Lu family's financial resources are unquestionable. Whatever they want to do, they can immediately put up a framework.
Xie Xun spent two days designing a set of brewing equipment and making some samples. Lu Daoyuan greatly appreciated it, and finally decided that Xie Xun would occupy the third floor with technical shares, and then pay him a lump sum of five hundred taels of gold.
Xie Xun stopped staying and said goodbye. Lu Daoyuan was actually a little reluctant to leave, and told Xie Xun to come and visit often.
Xie Xun agreed in his mouth, but said in his heart: "This is too far away. My main base should be in the Western Region."
Xie Xun still has good things in his hands, but he can't give them all to the Lu family. When he has a certain strength and can protect his own industry, he will start working on his own to make money.
Xie Xun felt that apart from getting some money, he had not gained much from traveling thousands of miles this time. There are no famous families here. It has a strong commercial atmosphere, but not a social atmosphere. Everything you see is indeed prosperous, and it is a good place to make money.
Xie Xun had nothing to do, thought about it, and decided to visit Wudang Mountain.
Zhang Sanfeng is one of the top masters in Jin Yong's martial arts. Even in the entire martial arts world, he is also the top figure. The most important thing is that he understands martial arts better than killing techniques. Reborn in the world of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword", he cannot miss the opportunity to communicate with Zhang Sanfeng.
At this time, the Wudang Sect relied solely on Zhang Sanfeng's reputation, and was far from its peak period when it could keep pace with Shaolin. It is said to be a Wudang sect, but there are only a few masters and disciples of Zhang Sanfeng, not even a Taoist boy who works as a handyman.
Among the Seven Heroes of Wudang, Song Yuanqiao has just come of age and has not yet started training. Yu Lianzhou and Yu Daiyan are just two teenagers. As for the other four, there is no shadow yet.
Xie Xun's visit this time was completely free of red tape, and Zhang Sanfeng was not so particular about it. He deliberately avoided meeting and pretended to be an outsider.
At first, Song Yuanqiao heard that Xie Xun was going to meet Zhang Sanfeng, and thought he was coming to challenge him.
Zhang Sanfeng is known as the best in the world, and it is not without challenges, but for someone as young as Xie Xun, this is his first time. He thought he was just a young man who was just starting out, and he didn't know the heights of the world and wanted to become famous just like Zhang Sanfeng.
However, Xie Xun always had a humble attitude and asked for advice directly, with the attitude of a primary school student, which made Song Yuanqiao suspicious. He didn't know the depths of the world, how could he understand the complexity of people's hearts, so he had no choice but to invite Xie Xun up the mountain and let Zhang Sanfeng decide everything.
Zhang Sanfeng is in his seventies, slightly shorter than himself, but not by much. He has a red face, half-black hair and half-black hair, and is slovenly and unkempt. He looks like a wild Taoist priest, but he shows his true meaning of purity and inaction.
Zhang Sanfeng looked at Xie Xun with a smile.
The veteran has been in the world for so many years and has never seen anything. No matter what the purpose of Xie Xun's visit is, to Zhang Sanfeng, it is just a matter of course.
There is nothing wrong with young people wanting to make a name for themselves, as long as you let them know that there are people outside the world, and there is a heaven outside the world.
Xie Xun had great respect for Zhang Sanfeng. He held the disciple ceremony and said: "Greetings to Master Zhang." He bowed to the end.
Zhang Sanfeng returned the gift: "Infinite Heavenly Lord! Thank you, young hero, for exempting me from the courtesy. Please sit down."
Xie Xun said: "Thank you for your seat." He sat upright next to Zhang Sanfeng.
Looking at Xie Xun's attitude, Zhang Sanfeng felt that he was wrong. He was a very polite young man.
Zhang Sanfeng asked: "What is the purpose of Mr. Xie here?"
Xie Xun said: "I don't dare to be called a young hero. Xie Xun said that he had to retreat. This time he came to Wudang Mountain specifically to meet Master Zhang."
Zhang Sanfeng asked: "Okay, I'll ask you to retreat to Si. Tuisi came to see the old man, but what's the matter?"
Xie Xun said: "Zhenzhen Zhang is a scholar of heaven and man. I have a lot of confusion about martial arts, so I came here to ask for advice."
Zhang Sanfeng said: "Don't take it seriously when asking for advice. Let's confirm each other."
Xie Xun said: "Then I won't beat around the bush. Mr. Zhang, I have learned a set of boxing skills. I feel that it is different from other boxing skills. It emphasizes the use of softness to overcome hardness. However, my knowledge of the Taoist way of eliminating voids and achieving enlightenment is limited. I am here to ask Mr. Zhang for advice. .”
Zhang Sanfeng smiled. Using softness to overcome hardness is the foundation of Wudang Kung Fu. He read the Taoist canon, observed the mountains and rivers, practiced literature and martial arts, took heaven and earth as his teachers, and integrated the "Nine Suns True Scripture" and other unparalleled knowledge. It took many years of enlightenment to realize the ultimate principle of using softness to overcome hardness. This A young person who dares to speak out nonsense at the age of twenty is a posture that can lead to the establishment of a sect.
But Zhang Sanfeng didn't take it seriously. He created his own boxing skills at the age of 20 and was already considered a wizard. The old master didn't mind giving guidance to his juniors.
It is not easy to learn martial arts, it is even harder to become a master, and it is even harder to create your own. Throughout the ages, those who can leave behind one or a half moves are all extremely talented and beautiful people. It’s not just a matter of hard work, it just requires talent and perseverance. It requires a thorough knowledge of science, knowing what is happening and why.
Zhang Sanfeng smiled slightly and said: "Tuisi, do you want to prove your boxing skills with the old Taoist?"
Xie Xun said: "I don't dare to use force with Master Zhang. I just want to demonstrate it in front of Master Zhang and hope to get correction from Master Zhang."
Zhang Sanfeng smiled and said: "Okay, I'll wait and see."
This young man's attitude has always been humble and polite, but the pride in his bones can also be felt.
Xie Xun displayed the starting postures of Tai Chi, including "Wild Horse Parting Mane", "White Crane Spreading Wings", "Grasping Bird Hands", "Moving Block and Beating", "Single Whip", "Cloud Hand" , one move after another, slowly coming out.
Zhang Sanfeng only saw a few moves before he was shocked: "Isn't this the boxing technique that I have been thinking about and striving for?"
This boxing technique is not much better than Wudang Boxing, but the artistic conception is far superior to Wudang Boxing.
Zhang Sanfeng stared at Xie Xun intently.
Tai Chi is derived from the Yin and Yang theory of Tai Chi. Although Xie Xun was not a Taoist priest, he published Taoist classics when he promoted printing in the Warring States Period. He also followed Lao Zhuang and became familiar with it, and got Zou Yan’s notes on the theory of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements. Combined with the "Tai Chi Theory" he read in modern times, he gained a deeper understanding of Tai Chi. Now that he has obtained the "Nine Suns Manual", he can use Tai Chi in his hands, and he is already like a great master.
Xie Xun plays very slowly, so slowly that one forgets time and feels drowsy. It seems agile and heavy, like flowing clouds and lead and mercury, as heavy as Mount Tai and as light as a feather.
Zhang Sanfeng's three disciples could not understand the key points at this time, but Zhang Sanfeng saw it very energetically.
Zhang Sanfeng was mesmerized by every move Xie Xun made. When Xie Xun took the move, Zhang Sanfeng suddenly understood and ended happily.
