Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

Ying Wei's words made the Six-Fingered Black Man a little moved. His expression was complicated. He knew that Ying Wei's words were to take advantage of the Mo family, but the Six-Fingered Black Man could not find any reason to refuse.

It's not that the Six-fingered Black Man is afraid that Ying Wei will discredit the Mo family and cause the Mo family to lose its base, thereby risking its demise.

Just from the Six Finger Black Man's own pursuit, he was very tempted by it.

He, a Mohist tycoon, was not hypocritical. On the surface he followed Mohist teachings, but secretly he stole men and women who were prostitutes.

The reason why Six-fingered Black Man is respected by all Mohist disciples is because Six-Fingered Black Man’s chivalrous heart comes from his true heart and his personal pursuit of life.

Therefore, in the view of Six Finger Black Man, Ying Wei's request is reasonable and well-founded. Even if he is not a disciple of the Mohist family, he still has a desire to follow Ying Wei and fulfill his mission of ensuring that the people of the world have food to eat. The purpose of having clothes to wear.

He felt more and more that this Lord Chang'an of the Qin State had an indescribable charisma.

The Six-Fingered Black Man gently placed the book in his hand on the ground. He looked at the structure of the artifact in the book and asked,"Is this thing really invented by Lord Chang'an?"

Then, the Six-Fingered Black Man shook his head again:"No. , this should be what you invented, Chang'an Jun, just like this paper, it was created by Chang'an Jun"

"And the significance of this paper may be more far-reaching than people imagine."

The six-fingered black 417 man touched the thin paper books with his hands, with complicated thoughts.

At this time, Feixue and Xuenu were also looking forward to it, and they poked their heads to look at the pictures drawn in the book.

But Feixue Although she is a disciple of the Mohist School, she is not proficient in mechanical skills, so she cannot understand the structure of those utensils.

In fact, what Ying Wei drew is the ancient curved shaft plow.

Feixue cannot understand the meaning of those things, but the six-finger Heixia understood its principle after just a little research.

He sighed:"If this thing is used properly, the plow will become smaller and lighter, making it easier to turn around and turn, and it will also be more flexible in operation, saving the physical strength of people and animals."

"If it can be promoted on a large scale, it will indeed make it easier for people to cultivate land, thereby increasing food production."

During the war period, the population of the entire land of China was only 20 million. It can be said that the land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are still a lot of wastelands. For people in this period, they have not yet reached the point where they have no land to farm. They just want to reclaim wasteland and need to A lot of manpower and material resources were spent.

At this time, Feixue and Xuenu couldn't help but look at Ying Wei. The eyes of the master and the disciple were very complicated.

There was admiration, admiration, and also anger towards him for his unscrupulous means.

If you want to say There are people who have tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and Feixue and Xuenu are definitely two of them.

Both the master and the apprentice were once members of the Zhao Guogui (adee) clan. They lived a life of fine clothing and fine food, but then they encountered family decline and lost their aristocratic status. After seeing the lives of the people at the bottom, they themselves became underground people like dancers.

It is precisely because they have seen and experienced the lives of the lowest class that they have a better understanding of the lives of the people at the bottom who have no food to eat and no clothes to keep warm. How painful it is.

And these are things that no one among the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms would look at or care about.

As Lord Chang'an said, the people at the bottom don't care who the current king is; what they care about is It’s just whether the next meal will be available, and how to spend the next winter.

But as a prince of the Qin State and the younger brother of the current King of Qin, Lord Changan not only understands the lives of the people at the bottom, he even personally designed a plan to make it easier for the people to farm the land. The

Mo family has always talked about loyalty, saying that the world is for the common good and preventing unjust wars, but their Moh family has really made any contribution to the people at the bottom. Have they really done anything?

Thinking about it now, it seems that the Moh family has nothing Didn't do it? He obviously mastered the powerful mechanism technique, but he didn't use it on the people of the world. Wouldn't this go against the Mo family's original intention?

When this thought arose, the Six-fingered Black Man even felt a faint fear, and he only felt that his life was like He was going in the wrong direction.

But Ying Wei's words were like enlightenment, pointing out a bright road for him. When

Feixue and Xuenu saw what Ying Wei did and listened to what he said, they felt They had a great change in their view of Ying Wei.

Although Chang'an Jun is a beautiful woman and loves to sing, he is not a man who is obsessed with food and drink.

He has a broader heart for the world than anyone else. He is in a Although he is in a high position, he can see the bottom. As the Lord of Chang'an, he is seeking the welfare of the people of the world.

Whether it is Liuzhiheixia, Feixue or Snow Girl, it seems that the true meaning of the Mohist family can be seen in Changanjun!

At this time, Liuzhihei Xia thought of his disciple Yan Dan who had betrayed him.

Compared with Chang'an Jun, Yan Dan was really a villain. This even made Six Finger Black Xia regretful as to why Chang'an Jun was a disciple of Xunzi, a Confucian scholar.

If he was a member of the Mohist family, he should How good it is, he may even be more suitable to be a Mohist giant and complete the great cause he has always wanted to accomplish, which is to truly implement Mohist ideas and let the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment. Ying Wei saw the expressions of the Six-Fingered Black Man and the others, and Knowing that the Six-fingered Black Man and Master Feixue were completely fooled by his words.

The technique he used this time was not a Legalist technique, but an orthodox Confucian technique, which was based on morality and benevolence. Suppress others, let yourself stand on the moral high ground, and thereby destroy a person with morality.

The Taoist sage Zhuangzi once wrote an article called"Parallel Thumb". The meaning of Parallel Thumb is that there is an extra small growth next to a person's thumb. Fingers.

This article by Zhuangzi criticizes morality and benevolence, saying that these things are not natural and are like superfluous things in the human body like parallel thumbs.

That is to say, it criticizes those Confucian theories that occupy the moral high ground and use it to force others.

The Six-Fingered Black Man has six fingers. Just as Zhuangzi said in"Parallel Thumb", he was condemned by his own morality by the use of Confucian techniques and even began to doubt his own Mohist thoughts.

Seeing that the Six-fingered Black Man was beginning to waver, Ying Wei added another force:"I wonder, Mr. Mohist, have you ever farmed the ground?" The

Six-fingered Black Man nodded slowly and said:"Of course I have." (Read the Baoshuang novel. , just go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Ying Wei heard the words and said:"Then you should know that the reason why many wastelands cannot be cultivated is because there is no water source for irrigation around them."

"If you want to have a water source for irrigation, you need to dig a channel and river. This requires a lot of manpower and material resources. Ordinary people don't even have enough to eat. How can they have the spare time to do this?"

"Therefore, this kind of thing can only be issued by the king's order to forcibly reclaim wasteland, but the result of this is corvee, that is, many people died in corvee."

"Six-Fingered Black Man, do you think this can be tyranny?"

"But it would be different if there were Mohist machine beasts. Although the machine beasts can be used for a limited time, they can be used slowly, saving a lot of manpower, thereby reducing corvee labor. This is an unparalleled achievement."

"But you, the Mohist family, are so disrespectful and unwilling to benefit the people of the world. Do you know how many people will die and how many people will starve to death for this? Isn’t this the fault of your Moh family?"

"Secondly, compared to land transportation, water transportation costs less, but there are thousands of rivers, and it is difficult to connect major rivers."

"If you let people dig it, it will be a waste of people and money, but the sin is in the present and the merit is in the future. If these things are also helped by agencies and beasts, I don't know how much manpower and financial resources will be saved."

After a pause, Ying Wei continued:"If our Qin country unites the six countries, after the war is over, I will also let the public loser's machine beast do these things."

"Then I would like to see how much face you, the Mo family, still have, dare to say that you are serving the people of the world!"

"This is all I have to say, I hope you Mouse Tail Juice, I don’t care about the performance of your Mohist machine beast in the war. What I care about is that everyone on this land should no longer worry about living."

After that, Ying Wei flicked his sleeves and left the cell, leaving the Six-Fingered Black Man to think for himself.
