Chapter 68: Two-Yuan Single-Horse Single-Man Standing (1)

I thought the Mo people could only talk about the righteousness, but I didn't expect that this young man named Shi didn't talk about the righteousness directly to them.

Shi knew that the political situation in the Song State is now chaotic. In history, Song Duke went to the alliance and died before he even took office. Gongzi Tian changed the era of the emperor that year, which should be this year.

The emperor of Sicheng has family ambitions, and another surname in the three surnames is now in a weak position. Gongzi Tian is a middle-aged person who thinks he is the descendant of Xuanniao: he can go to the Emperor of Zhou, but he can't pay homage to a small viscount Chu. He wishes he could kick the Three Jins and punch Man Chu. He was beaten hard before he woke up. Unfortunately, it was too late.

In this case, the Mo people were tormenting and for five or six years, these nobles were not interested in the affairs of the Mo people. This was to survive, grow and develop in the cracks of the aristocratic conflicts.

Although the nobles were busy fighting for power and profit to conspire and had no time to deal with these matters of the Mohist, they should not talk too straightforwardly to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

So, after returning from outside, craftsmen such as Tong Peng first listened to Shi and talked about some home-cooked words.

They are all handicraftsmen, with different careers and different dreams, but the misfortunes they experienced are always the same.

Only then did Dong Zhuo realize that his two brothers were dead. Thinking of his son who was about the same fate, his feelings became much closer in an instant.

Speaking of the famine last year and the recruitment of the palace repaired last year, Wang Peng also sighed a few words.

When talking about Mo, people who do not attack and value virtuousness, and people who are not noble and humble are equal to the ministers of heaven, they also feel that Mo is indeed the one who really wants to do righteousness.

These claims are exactly what these handicraftsmen dream of. Instead of talking to them about things they don’t care about, Shi selectively telling the stories these handicraftsmen want to hear.

He is a handicraft, and the things in his family are experienced by most handicraftsmen. A little communication can make these people feel close.

This sense of intimacy was originally just a closeness of the same destiny and similar professions.

Later on, it quietly became a sense of intimacy with the Mozhe. With the silence of moistening things, Dong Chong and others did not notice it at all. This was a kind of concept of changing, but it was very skillful to change it, and these people did not notice it.

Just as I had already said that it was almost the same, I finally started to talk about the main business.

"It is said that Mo people do righteousness in the world, and they think they are happy by themselves, but this is not the case. It is like bats hanging upside down, but beasts who don't understand always think that bats must be sad by themselves, otherwise why do they have to hang upside down? If we just endure hardship for ourselves, then what kind of righteousness should we do? Isn't the world now suffering enough?"

Several people asked curiously: "Then what's going on with you Mozhe? Let me tell me?"

Shi shook his head and said, "Today's affairs have nothing to do with the Mozhe, just to make you profit. I won't talk about this today."

Several people were a little disappointed, but did not think of a question: If they really don’t want to talk about it, and they don’t want to talk about it in the future, why did they mention that Mozhe is not suffering?

People like Dongzhuo do not make a sound, and although they are willing to listen, as Shi said, they still hope to know the mutual benefit.

No one noticed the names of the people who spoke up before the Zaomie Qisui General, who spoke up for the question, were quietly written in simple or complicated words on the bamboo slips she carried with him, with several hollow ink dots marked behind them.

Or it is possible that these people will turn into ink.

After everyone calmed down, Shi said again: "My brother is a shoemaker. Although he is different from you, he dreams of living the same life. Those who do our craftsmen say that it is a pleasure to do something to do. Now I will give you something to do something to do, and you will not violate the ban. Do you do it?"

When talking about the meaning of Mozhe, I didn't make a sound. At this time, I said first: "Of course, who doesn't know Mozhe's skillfulness? The wooden kite flew to the sky back then shocked Shangqiu. Even when it comes to riding a car, fortunately, there is only one Mozhe in the world, otherwise how can we carpenters live?"

This was a harsh praise from the Mozhe, and everyone said, "As long as you don't violate the ban, how can you not do it? The benefits of the three are increased by half compared to the benefits of the two."

"Yes, that's right. The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. The essence of the meaning of Mo is to benefit each other. You all know the wheat flour incident a few days ago and you all know that profit is quite profitable. If you calculate it by profit, you actually make more than three profits? I'm afraid it will take a hundred times."

Among the ink masters, knowledge is power and money. However, when communicating with these handicraftsmen, it is not the value of knowledge itself, so it can be said that it makes a hundred times profit.

Everyone knew about the wheat flour incident a few days ago, but it was the first time that the ink master said something that made a hundred times profit. How could they not believe it?

In an instant, all kinds of surprises, sighs, surprised screams and expressions appeared on the faces of these people.

"Often people think that we Mo people suffer for the most, so what is the purpose of asking for money? Isn't it for the sake of doing righteousness? There are different ways to follow us to do these craftsmen's work. We can benefit from doing righteousness, and you can also benefit from it. If you divide some of them with you, it is always higher than what you earn every year. Besides, others may have arrears, but I Mo people have things that are not up to their promises?"

This is indeed true. With the reputation accumulated by hundreds of ink masters, the four words of keeping promises can not only be believed by the nobles, but also enough to make these handicraftsmen believe it.

Someone in the crowd said: "In this year, even the king and the son of the son of the city were untrustworthy, but if we say the words of the Mo, we believe it."

"That's right, we can trust it."

When I heard that I could get above Lishes, my heart was already hot.

When they saw that these people had already believed in the things of profit, they said, "When it comes to righteousness, not mentioning the things of wheat flour, they benefit the world. Even if you help the ink masters make wooden tools together, we pay you, but those wooden tools that benefit the world are actually appearing. Then you said, are you also practicing righteousness in your own way? It is possible to benefit and practice righteousness. Is there anything else to hesitate?"

Everything has different opinions. For these non-Indian handicraftsmen, profit is the most touching of their hearts.

But in addition to material gain, spiritual enjoyment is also necessary, and it can also subtly allow them to gradually accept the saying of the righteousness of action, and also reverse the view that outsiders think that the righteousness of action will inevitably suffer.

This method has greatly praised these handicraftsmen and greatly satisfied their minds. It is not only spiritual satisfaction, but also material foundation.

This big cake with profit as the skin and righteousness as the filling was thrown out, and everyone's mind became more active, and they discussed the debate on the profit of the uprising.

After a while of discussion, Shi Shi said again: "Now you have settled your mind, but there is an imminent thing. This year's military tax has not been paid yet. If you don't pay the military tax, you will be punished. That's why I came up with the craftsman association that I mentioned before. Everyone works together and specializes in their professions, and their effectiveness will be doubled. This is one of the benefits of mutual benefit. Everyone gathers together, communicates with each other, and learns from each other. This is the second benefit of mutual benefit."

When most people agree, Wang Yang asked a question that he cared about very much.

"What would this craftsman be like? Is it the same as the worker officer?"

Shi laughed and said, "Of course not. You have worked hard and finally no longer subordinate to the Winter Officer. Is it true that we Mozhe wants to send you back?"

What these handicraftsmen fear the most is that they have lost their free identity and become the official handicraftsmen again, even if they change their names, they will not agree. The shadow left before is too deep.

The words of Dongzhu attracted a few people's displeasure, thinking that this was an insult to the Mozhe who practiced righteousness.

But most people didn't say anything, after all, this is something they care about very much.

After hearing what Shi said, everyone's heart was relieved. It sounded like there was only benefits but no harm. If others said this to them, even the princes and officials might not believe it, but since it was Mozhe who said this, they were sure.

This is the credit accumulated over decades, which is worth a thousand gold and can be a magnificent country.

"Since everyone thinks it is OK, then I will say that when you join the Craftsman Association, everyone must have a leader. If you are capable, you will not avoid relatives and enemies. Since that is the case, then I will ask Zi Mozi and Axe Jujin to be the leader of this Carpenter Association. How about it?"

No one refuted this opinion.

Who doesn’t know the name of Mo Di and Axe and Ju Jin in the carpenter industry? Besides, both of them are Mo people who have been practicing righteousness for many years, so they are the most fair. If they choose others, they can’t believe it.

But Dong Peng was still worried and asked, "What punishment would be if he quit this craftsman association?"

Shi pretended to be strange and said, "How could there be a punishment? How can we be qualified to manage Siko's affairs? Besides, you are not Mo, so I cannot control you from the Mo family's ban. Just keep the promise. But if you want to talk about this punishment... it's not none, but this punishment is not something you can have now."

Everyone was puzzled and smiled and said, "If the people who join the Craftsman Association in the future have any millstones and other things that benefit the world, they will of course be the people in the Craftsman Association. If there is any big profit, the Craftsman Association will be the first. If you withdraw in the future, then there will be no more. Do you think this is a punishment?"

Everyone laughed, and Xiao Zhuo finally let go of his last heart and praised him.

Shi took the opportunity to say, "It's just that Zi Mozi is a giant in the Mo family, and he is busy with righteousness. Axe and Jujin are also indispensable people in the Mo family. But Mo people can choose one person to replace the two as the leader of the craftsman association. We will discuss everything, and we will discuss the specific matters in the future. However, this leader must be a member of my Mo family in the early stage, and it is also for the sake of justice and profit. What do you think?"

"This craftsman will pay you the annual income of this year according to the benefits of everyone's annual income. This year, you will learn the methods of wood and complete the military levies this year first. Next year, you can make profits on your own. If you have any questions, you will no longer compete with each other in the craftsman association. This year shall prevail, and exceed this year's profits. From the profits, you will pay the tithes as the public money of the craftsman association every year, and use tithes as the use of righteousness. What do you think?"

This is another benefit that has not yet been in hand. Everyone doesn’t feel sorry for throwing it away. Anyway, this year is pretty good. According to the profit this year, if there is no change, it will be basically the same within a hundred years.

This benefit beyond this year has not yet appeared, and it is only two-tenths of the remaining profit. If the profit is not as good as this year, the craftsman will naturally dissipate, and there is no need to pay the public expenses of the tithes, nor does he have to pay the tithes money for the tithes.

In the eyes of people like Dongzhu, they are indeed profitable and harmless, and they really cannot find a reason to not participate.

Those who want to ask more about the meaning of the Mo Man think that since the Mo Man is always there in the future, they can ask more questions. If it is in harmony with the mind, why don’t they be the Mo Man?

Even if this matter was decided, and with similar methods and rhetorics, these people joined, the private carpenters in Shangqiu City soon learned about this news and joined.

Xiaosheng, who was taciturn, asked again.

"Well, who can be the leader of this craftsman association?"
