Chapter 164 The Mo Family's Shareholding Layout of the State of Yan!
Although most people think that Mohism believes in universal love and non-aggression, if you look at it from Ye Chang's perspective, the real essence of this sect lies in two points, that is - "democracy and science".
Mohism's unparalleled mechanism technology can be regarded as the highest technological crystallization at this time. And the universal love it advocates is also a theory extended on the basis of mutual equality.
However, in this bloody and cruel era, democracy obviously did not conform to the trend of history, which destined the Mohists to be unsuitable to participate in national struggles.
Otherwise, not only will it be in danger of destruction, but it will also make the original turbulent situation even more chaotic.
Therefore, in his plan, if he wants this sect to truly play its role, it should follow the technical stream, using the power of machine skills to serve society as much as possible and improve productivity.
Only by rapidly improving the basic production level can the entire environment be transformed and promote the progress of the times...
After listening to Ye Zhang's remarks, Six-fingered Black Man was also quite touched. Although his cultivation was unpredictable, he still had great limitations in terms of his thinking.
But the former's words helped him open up a new way of thinking. Maybe the Mohists can really change.
After thinking for a while, he continued: "As far as I know, Tianyuan Trading Company and Confucianism seem to be quite close. I guess you have already been to Xiaoshengxian Manor before coming here, right?"
Hearing this, Ye Zhang naturally understood the meaning, and immediately did not hide it, nodding and saying: "Yes, Confucianism has agreed to establish an alliance with the trading company and occupy a certain share in it.
However, in my opinion, this will not have a negative impact on the Mohist family."
After saying that, he looked at the other party again and said: "Confucianism and Mohism are the two major schools of thought today. Although there are disputes over principles and principles, the ultimate goal is to create a harmonious society.
Mohism teaches universal love without aggression, and Confucianism teaches teaching without distinction. Since both sides have this intention, why can't we tolerate each other?"
After the words fell, the Six-fingered Black Man's face paused slightly. He naturally understood the truth, but the Confucian-Moh conflict had been going on for hundreds of years, and it was not easy to stop.
Seeing this, Ye Zhang continued: "The inheritance of the two sects has condensed the wisdom of countless ancestors, and it is a force that cannot be ignored no matter who it is.
Mohists love the world, so they might as well take a broader view. Confucianism and Mohism should both work for the benefit of the people. As long as the two avoid differences in concepts and use their strengths to complement each other, they will surely be able to bring forth the new and bring happiness to the people.
The world."
Although the two sects have different opinions, they also have many things in common. It is a good thing for both parties to put aside the conflicts and focus on common development.
The Six-fingered Black Man also fell into deep thought after hearing this. He also knew very well that if the problems faced by the Mohist family were not solved as much as possible, it would surely lead to disaster in the future.
Although he was moved in his heart, he did not give an immediate reply. After pondering for a while, he slowly said: "This matter is important, I need to think about it."
Ye Zhang smiled and said: "Don't worry, there is still time, enough for you to think about it carefully. I will stay in Yan country for a while. When you think about it, just send someone to the capital to let me know.
Sorry for disturbing you, please say goodbye."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and left. He had not forgotten that he had left a chess piece in the Yan Kingdom, and now it was time to use it...
In the gorgeous main hall of Jicheng Palace, a middle-aged man with a bloated figure and a blue robe was sitting on the throne, looking quite tired.
I saw him drinking the wine in the cup, sighing with sorrow in his eyes.
The land of Yan is located on the edge of the Central Plains. It is remote, bitter and cold, and life is very poor. After the failure of the four-nation alliance, not only did the army lose soldiers, but also a large amount of money was compensated.
The treasury, which was already not very wealthy, has become even more depleted, and now it can hardly even pay the military. If this continues, his throne may not be stable!
Thinking of this, King Yan lamented again, regretting why he had listened to others' instigation to attack Qin in the first place, otherwise he would not have ended up in this situation.
Just when he was feeling regretful, a shouting voice rang out: "Brother Wang, Brother Wang!"
King Yan looked up and saw a familiar figure walking quickly from outside the palace. It was his brother Yan Chunjun. Then he said: "Why did you come here today? Did you cause some trouble again?
"
He knew this younger brother very well. He was greedy for money and lustful all day long, and used his status to show off his power everywhere. Every time something happened, he had to step in and settle it himself.
After hearing this, Lord Yan Chun said: "Brother Wang, what are you talking about? I am here to express my congratulations to you!"
When King Yan heard this, his expression changed and he asked, "Where does the joy come from?"
"Brother Wang, does he know about Tianyuan Trading Company?"
Yan Chunjun asked.
King Yan nodded happily: "Of course I know that paper, cane sugar, spirits, money tickets and many other items come from here. It is said that the boss of the trading house is extremely rich and powerful."
Yan Chunjun said quickly: "My brother knew that Brother Wang was worried about money, so he specially invited him here. If we can cooperate with him, he can definitely help me, Dayan, to tide over the difficulties!"
Upon hearing this, King Yan couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he immediately straightened up and said, "Seriously?"
"My brother, I dare not lie to you. I am outside the palace right now!"
Lord Yanchun replied.
"Please come in quickly!"
King Yan quickly said that with the financial resources of Tianyuan Trading Company, it can indeed help Yan State solve its current predicament.
After a while, Ye Zhang walked into the palace slowly, cupped his hands slightly and said, "I have met the king."
Yan Xi nodded: "I wonder what you call me?"
"My surname is Ye."
Ye Zhang replied.
Yan Xi heard this and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Ye. I heard that you are the owner of Tianyuan Trading Company?"
Although the trading house is very famous, the former acts in a rather low-key manner, and few people know his true identity. Although Yan Chunjun guarantees it, he still has doubts in his heart.
Ye Zhang naturally saw the doubts in the other party's mind, and then said: "That's natural. I came in such a hurry that I didn't have time to make any preparations. I only brought a small gift, which is a little token of my gratitude."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a waiter walking over with a wooden box in his hands. When he opened it, he saw a transparent and dazzling glazed green luan.
Seeing this scene, King Yan couldn't help but look at him. The only one who could produce such a treasure was the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce. It seemed that his identity was no problem.
Suijie smiled and said: "Mr. Ye is so polite, I deserve it, haha!"
