Guo Dan hung the printed painting on the wall unhurriedly, then retreated to the table, leaned on the table, clasped his hands on his chest, turned his head to look at Aunt Xu, and asked with a smile: "The layman is extremely smart, you should know the meaning of this painting." ”

Aunt Xu looked at the seal for a moment and said, "Such a thing as thought, is seen horizontally as a peak on the side of the ridge, the important thing is what you want to express?" ”

"To be an enemy of Confucianism is extremely unknown."

Guo Dan shook his head and said, "Therefore, I hope to use Yangming Xinxue to repackage Confucianism." ”

Aunt Xu looked at Guo Dan suspiciously.

Guo Dan said: "I hope everyone has a very clear positioning of Confucianism, it is like a seed in the human body, from childhood to adolescence, this is the need for teachers to fertilize, so that the seed germinates and grows in the body."

But at a certain age, the teacher's fertilization will not work, it needs to be absorbed by itself, in the work, in the society, anyone encountered, anything, any setback or success, is a kind of fertilizer, when it reaches a certain age, it will be self-sublimation. ”

Aunt Xu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "You know that the other party will definitely refute your remarks that you define Confucianism as enlightenment education, so you preemptively define the later study of Confucianism as a kind of self-cultivation." ”

Guo Dan asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" This master led the door, and the practice was personal, Wang Yangming was not taught, but relied on what he saw and heard, and had an epiphany, although I don't know much about it, but I have heard of this story. ”

Aunt Xu said: "Having said that, your purpose is not like this today, you just want to avoid them, they attack you on the grounds that you belittle Confucianism, and at the same time, it can also help you divide Confucianism." ”

Guo Dan shook his head and smiled: "I don't want you to write these in newspapers and magazines." ”

Aunt Xu said: "And your theory is those tools? ”

Guo Dan nodded and said: "Self-fertilization also requires tools." ”

Aunt Xu smiled: "That is to say, your theory will replace the teacher." ”

"It's not something I want you to write in the press."

Guo Dan smiled bitterly and said: "I hope you understand that my theory is just an auxiliary, just a supplement, but if you don't learn these, it will be difficult for the Confucian seedling in your heart to thrive." ”

"I see." Aunt Xu nodded.

If Guo Dan defined Confucianism as a low-end thought, it would cause a great backlash, and he didn't actually mean that, but he was worried that Su Xu would attack him by defining his remarks as such, so he wanted to divide Confucianism into two parts, the first part of which needed to be taught by a teacher.

The second part requires self-epiphany, which is to be packaged here with Yang Ming Xinxue.

Confucianism is still the supreme thought, it never ends, it depends on your own continuous thinking, and when you reach a certain age, or how much experience he has learned, this realm will naturally be different, until you die.

If this theory is accepted, then there is a limit to other institutions, because they cannot teach the second part.

In addition, and most importantly, Confucianism lies in the heart and does not provide tools, thus introducing Guo Dan's theory.

To put it simply, you need straw as fertilizer, and you need a scythe to cut the grass.

Aunt Xu said again: "I thought you didn't know anything about this. ”

Guo smiled lightly: "I don't know anything, but I know very well what I need, so I can only tell the layman what I need, but how to write it depends on the layman." ”

Suddenly, I heard someone outside the door: "Boss, are you inside?" ”

Guo Dan looked back and said, "Come in." ”

I saw a young man walk in and said, "Zhang Zhen has seen the proprietor." ”

Guo Dan nodded and said, "How is your work lately?" ”

Zhang Zhen looked embarrassed and said, "Recently... Recently, the printing workshop has been struggling to make ends meet. ”

"That's normal, and now isn't the time for you to blame yourself."

Guo nodded with a smile, turned around, and said, "But then, you can't have any more excuses, after the first issue of Yinuo Journal is sold, you will go to those famous people who have opened the academy to seek cooperation." ”

Zhang Zhen was stunned.

Guo Dan said: "Just go, you will definitely succeed." ”

"Yes, I see."

Zhang Zhen nodded.

Guo smiled lightly: "Go to Xiaodong to ask for information about this, oh, remember to pay, that Xinxing is not my alone." ”

"Yes."

After Zhang Zhen left, Aunt Xu asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

She thought that the printing workshop was Guo Dan's weapon, but now it seems that Guo Dan will also lend this weapon to others to use.

Guo Dan sat down, looked up at Aunt Xu, and said with a smile: "I am a businessman, I opened such a large printing workshop not to lose money, but because I expect that the printing workshop will become the most profitable business in Kaifeng Mansion." Not only do I have to get what I want, I have to earn money, otherwise what do I have to pay taxes with? ”

This mouth will definitely not be able to beat the newspaper, so Su Xu and they must also rely on the newspaper to launch a counterattack against Guo Dan, and at the same time, there are various schools and celebrities here, there are too many people to fight for, so the printing workshop will inevitably become the most profitable business.

And Guo Dan is just throwing bricks and attracting jade.

Aunt Xu just smiled indifferently, stopped talking, and looked at the prints hanging on the wall, with mixed feelings in her heart.

The starting point of the whole thing lies with her, but now, she finds that she can no longer find an entry point to intervene in this matter, and Guo Dan is completely in charge of this matter.

However, since the end of the egg extermination conference, the entire Kaifeng Mansion has been filled with gunsmoke.

There was controversy everywhere.

There is no way, because there are too many literati gathered here, and Guo Dan suddenly threw out such a blockbuster theory, this scene can be imagined.

Of course, their argument does not affect the overall situation, they have no appeal, and it mainly depends on how Su Xu will deal with the menacing Guo Shengren.

After Su Xu just returned to the mansion, there was an endless stream of people who came to ask for a meeting.

But Su Xu didn't rush to meet them, let them be in the hall later, he just talked privately with Tan Xiu in the back room.

"Brother Tan Xian, what do you think of Guo Dan's remarks?" Su Xu asked.

Tan Xiu stroked his beard and groaned silently.

Su Xu smiled: "Brother Tan Xian still doesn't know who I am?" There is something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it. ”

Tan Xiu smiled and said, "Actually... In fact, I think what Guo Dan said is not unreasonable, and now I have many problems that have not been solved, and it is true that some officials attach too much importance to virtue and ignore the actual situation. ”

Su Xu nodded and said, "Brother Xian coincides with me, and I also think that Guo Dan is very reasonable." ”

"Really?"

Tan Xiu looked at Su Xu in surprise.

Su Xu said with a smile: "Could it be that in the eyes of Brother Tan Xian, Brother Wei is that kind of pedantic person?" ”

"No, it's just ......?" Talking about cultivation and stopping again.

"Brother Fang can't be indifferent, otherwise he will ......"

"Understood, understood."

Tan Xiu nodded.

So many people are looking at Su Xu's horse, if he doesn't make a sound, he can't explain it to the people below.

Su Xu said: "But Guo Dan is also very cunning, he uses the current politics to summarize Confucianism, misleading everyone, Confucianism is by no means as simple as he said, since the sage proposed self-cultivation, governing the country, and leveling the world, how can there be no theory of governing the country and leveling the world." ”

Tan Xiu nodded and said: "Brother Su is very right, and the foolish brother does not agree with his point of view, but he is indeed good at demagoguery, and he uses the heart of today's saint to promote the academy, this trick is indeed very powerful." ”

"But he's not going to get away with it."

Su Xu said: "We must smash his lies and prove Confucianism, but we must also accept his views with an open mind." In fact, before that, there were still many things I didn't understand about the construction of Nanjing University.

What should we teach, if we only teach the Four Books and the Five Classics, what is the difference between it and other colleges, today Guo Dan reminded me that we should not teach what we have, we should teach what we don't have. ”

Tan Xiu nodded and said, "I can use the current politics as a textbook and use Confucianism to solve the current problems, this is the best counterattack to Guo Dan." ”

Su Xu waved his hand and said: "The discussion must be cautious, I can use history books as textbooks, Tang Taizong once said, take people as a mirror, you can know the gains and losses, take history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall." ”

Tan Xiu stroked his beard and groaned a little, and suddenly nodded and smiled: "Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

This Su Xu is good at scheming and proficient in the way of being an official, if you want him to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, he actually has no interest, and in the face of other schools, there is no advantage at all, and the Four Books and Five Classics have been read badly.

I can't name a flower.

And he opened Nanjing Academy to provide talents for the imperial court, so as to leave a name in history.

However, he understands that if he wants to gain a foothold in the DPRK and China, he must pay attention to strategy, and it is not enough to rely on enthusiasm alone, but the art of power and strategy cannot be talked about openly.

It was a big headache for him.

And Guo Dande's remarks, although he was very anxious, but at the same time also gave him inspiration, Nanjing school is mainly about teaching, it is mainly to govern the country and level the world.

He used this to package his scheming skills.

This is actually the best counterattack to Guo Dan, you don't want to suppress Confucianism for basic education, he also opened a school that governs the country and equalizes the world, I use Confucianism to elaborate and solve the problem, then Guo Dan's remarks are self-defeating.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Of course, this is just a grand strategic policy, and it is still necessary to counterattack Guo Dan at the moment.

If you don't fight back, you will lose people's hearts.

After Su Xu negotiated this grand strategy, he went to meet with Shen Bowen and other celebrities from Jiangnan to discuss how to fight back against Guo Dan's remarks.

The reason why there is a bar spirit in this world is because there is no perfect existence.

There are no absolutes.

Guo Dan's remarks have too many flaws.

Counter-attacking too much.

They want to refute Guo Dan's remarks one by one.

And their advantage is that they think they control public opinion.

You Guo Dan can't have meetings every day.

Not only Nanjing, but also Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, and so on.

In addition to being angry, they were also very excited, Guo Dan's appearance on the stage also created an unprecedented big stage, they were all studying Guo Dan's remarks at this time, how to refute it, it must make Guo Dan feel pain.

Since Guo Dan jumped to this ideological level to fight, it was to send sheep into the tiger's mouth!

But I just don't know who is the sheep and who is the tiger.
