This year is the first year of Zhihe. Just like the expectations of this year, this year is about to end, and nothing major happened. The whole country is in a state of sunshine. If you think about it carefully, there is nothing worth remembering.

On the contrary, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, a song [Shuitu Songtou - Gift to Lu Caiwei] is the most memorable thing. What is strange is that this poem was not written by a famous person. What is incredible is that this poem is a five-year-old child!

Bao Zheng remembered the surprise when he looked at the song "Shuitu" and others introduced the author of the lyrics Ouyang Bian to him. Now the lyrics Ouyang Bian has reappeared in his life in a not-so-appropriate way. This feeling is quite wonderful.

After Bao Zheng was surprised, his feelings were a little strange. He was a serious and square person, and he didn't hide what he had in his heart. He thought about it and said, "Jiefu, it was your own business. I shouldn't argue with it, but I still want to talk to you about some of the words."

Wang Anshi smiled bitterly: "Sir, please tell me."

How could he not know what Bao Zheng wanted to say? Sure enough, Bao Zheng said: "Since Ouyang Bian is a child prodigy, why did Jiefu allow him to do business business? Wouldn't it be better to study hard?

The old emperor once advised that there was a golden house in the book and a beautiful woman in the book. If you have ambition in your heart, you would be able to study and get a Jinshi. Why do you have to do business in business? Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?”

Wang Anshi smiled bitterly again: "Mr. Bao is right. I thought so at the beginning, but there is a little hidden truth to me to tell the great man."

Wang Anshi informed Bao Zheng in detail about the situation of Ouyang's family. Bao Zheng frowned deeper and deeper, and couldn't help but interrupt: "If it was just because of the difficulties at home, it would be a matter of time.

Besides, although Ouyang Yongshu is not a priest, he is still a senior official in the court. He is not poor, so why bother to let his nephew run it?"

Wang Anshi shook his head and said, "At the beginning, it was just my student Ouyang Bian's own idea, but as he deepened his business, he discovered some knowledge that surprised me, which is why I decided to help him."

"Knowledge? Merchants also have knowledge?"

Bao Zheng looked like you were teasing me.

Wang Anshi nodded and said, "Yes, and it has been written now, and the title of the book is [The Wealth of Nations].

It discusses the nature of economic activities and the importance of the economy to national development.

He also put forward many feasible suggestions for the country to enrich the country, which is also the reason why I am shameless to ask for adults."

Bao Zheng's face gradually changed: "If this is the case, it is understandable. I don't know if Jiefu brought the book with me. I want to see what I wrote."

Wang Anshi shook his head and said, "I have put the manuscript at home and I have not brought it. I will bring it to adults to observe tomorrow."

Bao Zheng shook his head: "Just ask someone to get it. It's best to let Ouyang Bian send it here. I'm actually quite interested in Uncle Yong, the youngest son. He brags to me last time. I want to see how smart he is."

Wang Anshi smiled, but he didn't mind, he just asked someone to inform him.

Wang Anshi went outside and said to the coachman, who quickly set out to inform him.

When the coachman came to Ouyang's house to find Ouyang Bian, Ouyang Bian was still biting the pen in a difficult manner and carrying out the final work of catching insects in a large manuscript.

Such academic works cannot be easily written, but once they are written, there must be no big mistakes. Especially, such books that may become the state's guide to economic operations in the future, and there must be no mistakes.

As for whether this book can become a book to guide the country's economic activities in the future, Ouyang Bian has no doubt about this.

[The Wealth of Nations], [Macroeconomics] [Microeconomics] The things summarized by several books are knowledge that transcends several levels of this era, and belong to the peak of knowledge standing on the top of the mountain and looking down at the foot of the mountain.

As long as people who read books have a basic knowledge system, they will definitely be conquered. The more elite they are, the more they are.

This can be seen from the reactions of Ouyang Xiu and Wang Anshi.

After reading the book, it was an extremely complex expression, including shock, surprise, excitement, etc.

Because they understand the value contained in it too much.

To put it forward a few more dynasties, the state dynasty has always vaguely believed that merchant activities are a concept of getting something for nothing. Not only does it not support it, but it will also restrict exploitation.

In the theory of wealth of the country, this behavior is called commerce, and the importance of the economy to the country is no less important than the importance of agriculture to the country.

In the eyes of Wang Anshi and Ouyang Xiu, this significance is very far-reaching.

The Song Dynasty hid a great crisis. The people seemed rich, but the treasury was empty.

The three redundant problems of redundant officials and soldiers are problems that most elites know very well, but the interest groups involved are too large.

Some people are from this vested interest group themselves, so although Guo Song has reached a time of shakyness, no one dares to stand up.

Wang Anshi has always wanted to do something, but he has not yet thought about how to move, because he really has no confidence to shake the giant beasts of interest lying on the country and sucking blood.

Ouyang Bian's theory of wealth has made him see more clearly what is inside and he also sees another path.

So, Ouyang Bian, who was just thinking about playing with tickets, was under great pressure. If Wang Anshi and his friends changed according to the theory that was wrong at the root, the harm would be greater.

So Ouyang Bian picked up the pen tremblingly, catching insects over and over again, trying not to have any problems in some key parts, otherwise he would be a historical sinner.

However, such a job is both boring and hard. Ouyang Bian, who had been changing for a long time, finally became impatient. He threw the pen on the table with a snap, and cursed in a low voice: "Go to go, go to go! I'm just a naughty person. I said nothing, but I don't care anymore!"

Ouyang Bian smiled bitterly in an instant.

He always said that he only wanted to be a rich man, a slut, and a wanderer, but he always had a little thought of doing something in his heart. Isn't this wealth theory the product of some efforts he wants to make?

It’s right and wrong!

Ouyang Bian smiled bitterly.

He remembered the scene that occasionally appeared in his dreams. The Jin cavalry all over the mountains rushed into the heart of the Song Dynasty. Behind him were howling, smoke, and corpses. In front were the literati and officials of the Song Dynasty who were fleeing south in a panic.

Then, I looked at the Jin soldiers across the river, looking at the former territory, and muttering the beauty of the past.

How heart-wrenching that was!
