When I first met Ji Te, Ji Te had just returned from the ground with a hoe.

The hoe is iron. The one who hired him to help the farm bought a lot of iron farm tools from Pei County. He also had four cows and two horses at home. He was considered an emerging landlord class, with more private land and good at management, but he had no noble bloodline.

There is not much population now, so there is a shortage of labor force. Jite's life like helping others is pretty good, and at least he can keep one from starving to death.

When they can maintain food and clothing, most landless people will choose to sell their labor force in time periods. When they really cannot maintain it, they can only choose to sell themselves as child servants and slaves at one time. Jite has not yet been so miserable.

After looking at it, I was about thirteen or fourteen years old when I was destroyed. I may recognize the characters and should have received a good education when I was young.

The once noble bloodline could not prevent his skin from working under the scorching sun and becoming black and dry. His expression was not dull. Seeing that the arrival of the moment, he hurriedly said hello and looked at Teng Shuyu, his eyes full of confusion.

Teng Shuyu hurriedly introduced it, looking at the nobleman who was more than ten years ago in front of him, and smiled and said, "Thank you hard, Jiarong, do you know where the meals from childhood come from now, right?"

Ji Te grinned, his speaking level was still much higher than that of the Shi, and said sadly: "The wise man and the people both farm and eat, and enjoy the food and govern, so that they can govern the world."

"If you have a granary for storing food and a treasury for storing money, you will harm the people to support yourself. Such a monarch is not worthy of being a virtuous."

Luo Chuili, who was standing beside him, was stunned and felt that this person had a very good idea.

Shi Kuo smiled and said, "Being a farmer and busy with farming, it's good to have such an idea. After all, it's not a monarch. I think this way when I hold a hoe in my hand, and when I hold a golden and jade seal in my hand, I'm afraid I won't think this way."

Ji Te didn't take it seriously, and he didn't think about restoring the country or something. Besides, it wasn't his turn to restore the country. He also had a lot of relatives in exile.

Since he was familiar with Teng Shuyu and knew that Shi was a Mo family, he continued, "Can people's minds be changed? If I am the king, I must cultivate myself. The so-called "scholars who did not farm in the past but did not farm, the world may suffer from hunger. If a woman fails to achieve success in the past, the world may suffer from cold."

Shi laughed and said nothing. He could not believe in his promises or his temporary insights. It doesn’t matter what he said now. He will definitely find a way to restrain himself in the future. It is natural to think so. If he doesn’t think so, he will find a way to force him to think so.

After a brief conversation, Ji Te asked Teng Shuyu: "What are you doing today? I am very happy to have friends coming from afar. I should have bought some sour wine and bought wheat cakes, but unfortunately, the autumn has not arrived, and the one who has served me has never given me the money for farming. I'm sorry."

He really didn't have much money in his hand. Before autumn came, he could eat at the owner's house, which was similar to long-term work. He had to do work such as pounding corn to get some quick money.

Soon, he paid some private money and invited Ji Te, Teng Shuyu and others to the Mohist shop. He ordered some wheat cakes, light wine, a small plate of salted peanuts, and a few peppers that were crushed with salt after being burned over fire.

After a few bites of wheat cake, I found that Ji Te had no aristocratic temperament. He ate voraciously when eating, and the chopsticks used only to drink vegetable soup were also skillfully used without any astringency.

After swallowing for a while, he said, "I'm here today, I just want to ask, are you willing to go to Pei County to study?"

Ji Te was stunned. He knew his identity and had heard of the Mohist sayings about equality and virtuousness, which had an extremely interesting effect.

In theory he is a nobleman.

But in fact, he was in a miserable state. His father died in the battle to defend the city, and he was not a legitimate son, so the real corps had already fled.

I was helped by others and made a living by my strength. Teng Kingdom was destroyed, and my status as a nobleman was not worth it.

In fact, he is not considered an orthodox aristocrat. In theory, the orthodox aristocrat would rather starve to death than do such a man to make a living. Besides, he didn't even have a sword, so he might have sold it long ago.

So when Shi said this, he felt a little strange and asked, "My talent is not enough to call him a wise man. The Mo family has a high vision and commented on people in the world. I heard that Mo Di believed that unless Confucius was resurrected, no one in the world could compare with him... I don't want to study, but I don't know why I came to me?"

Shi smiled but said nothing, and asked for a while: "You only say whether you go or not. If you go, the food and accommodation costs will be paid by the Mo family."

Ji Te thought to himself, do you still have to think about it? I am here to work hard and work hard every day. Is it what I want? But if you don’t work, you won’t have food. Now you are in charge of food and accommodation, why don’t I go?

Furthermore, eating wheat cakes and thinking about some rumors about the Mohist family, I thought I always wanted to eat more wheat cakes. Although I sighed that I hope that the wise and the people would eat together, this would at least have a little of his own land.

Ji Te no longer refused such a good thing that fell from the sky, but he still couldn't help asking: "I have heard that the Mohist people are equal, both young and old, and all the nobles and humble are equal, and all the virtuous are chosen as the responsibility. I have also heard the poems of the Praise Land, and I hope that children can read and write in the future..."

He hesitated for a moment and finally said, "But in terms of Tengdi, there are dozens of people who are better than me. In the Tianlong city, there are many intelligences and intelligence... But the Mo family invited me to study in Peixian alone. Isn't this concerned about my noble bloodline?"

Shi laughed and said, "Your words don't make sense."

"In the past, the giants traveled to Lu. In the south of Lu, I had Wu Li, who had been farmed in the winter and tillage in the summer, compared himself to Shun. Zi Mozi heard about it and saw it. Wu Li said to Zi Mozi: "Yi Er Yi Er, how can I use it to say it?" Zi Mozi said: "What Zi said to be Yi is also powerful to work hard for others, and wealth to share people'? Wu Li said: "

Ji Te thought to himself that what Wu Lu thought was somewhat similar to what he thought.

If we talk about equality and if we talk about the meaning of action, we should be cultivated from top to bottom in winter and summer, then it is true equality.

This is how he understood the equality of the Mohist school, so he asked this question.

But since this story is applicable, I think the Mohist school does not agree with such equality, so I wait for the follow-up.

After a while, he said, "Zi Mozi asked Wu Lu, saying that he wanted to farm for the people of the world and work very hard, which was equivalent to the farming of a farmer, and allocating the harvest to the people of the world, and everyone could not get a liter of millet. It would be obvious if a person could get a liter of millet, which was not enough to feed the hungry people of the world. It would be obvious if he thought that he would weave clothes for the people of the world, and he would work very hard. It would be equivalent to the textile of a woman, and allocating the cloth to the people of the world, and everyone could not get a liter of cloth. It would be obvious if a person could get a liter of cloth, which was not enough to warm the cold people of the world."

"Zi Mozi also wanted to wear strong armor and hold sharp weapons in his hands to rescue the princes' hardships. This was equivalent to a warrior's battle. It was obvious that a warrior's battle could not resist the attack of the three armies. I think it would be better to recite and study the theories of the previous kings, understand and examine the words of the saints, and persuade the people of the world."

"The princes and grandpas adopted the Mohist doctrine, and the country would be governed; ordinary people adopted the Mohist doctrine, and their character must be cultivated. Therefore, Zi Mozi believed that even if they did not farm, they could feed hungry people, and if they did not weave, they could wear clothes for cold people. The merit was better than feeding people after farming, and people who gave clothes for people after textiles. Therefore, I think that even if they did not farm and did not weave, the merit was better than farming and textiles."

"If you say that everyone is equal, naturally everyone should be able to cultivate in winter and summer, and do the same thing? This is the same as what Wu Lu thought in the south of Shandong, but it is not the knowledge of the Mohist school."

"The Mohist school's knowledge is like building a wall. You cannot let women do things that rammed earth, and you have to say that it is equality. You should not think that men rammed earth while women just mix mud and water, which is inequality. Everyone does things that suit their own talents, and this is the great governance of the world."

Shi smiled and said, "The Mohist school talks about utilitarianism. It talks about the choice of profiting the world and making big profits. Let me ask, who has more achievements than those who have established a place but who does not know how to farm and teach others to farm alone? Who has more achievements than those who have established a place and attacked an unrighteous country, and make people advance to fight, or those who have not promoted people advance to fight and fight alone?"

Jite had been persuaded and replied: "Of course, those who teach people to farm and those who teach people to fight will make more contributions."

Shi nodded and said, "That's right, so the Mohist school wants to talk about utilitarianism. Now that we can't do the paradise, everyone can understand the text and make a clear word. Naturally, we have to choose limited things and invest them in the people who can benefit the world the most."

"We are not respecting your bloodline, but because you have learned the knowledge of the Mohist school, it can benefit more people in Tengland."

Speaking of this, Ji Te immediately understood, his heart was thumping, his mouth was dry, and he asked in a low voice for a while: "You...you want...you want..."

Shi smiled and said, "That is, the people of Yue are cautious in oppressing and being cautious in the Teng land, and the people in Teng land are more resentful and hateful. If you learn the knowledge of the Mohist school and become a king, this is to "teach people to farm" and "help and make the people advance and fight", this is why we chose you."

Ji Te never thought about restoring the country. The main reason is that restoring the country is not very beneficial to him, and it is really not his turn.

The cousins ​​with orthodox inheritance were everywhere in Chulu, and it was not his turn. However, he used the term "the people of Liteng" and said bluntly what the Mohist wanted him for.

Ji Te was a little panicked, feeling that Yue people were invincible, and thought that Yue people were fierce tigers, and Qi could not stop them.

But then I thought about it again. The Mo family has been so prosperous and famous all over the world in recent years, and the things they have planned have not been defeated. Isn’t this just an opportunity? A real man should have something to pursue when dealing with things. If King Wu was worried about King Zhou’s strength back then, how could the world be established?
