Chapter 285: The Dream of the World

Zhuangzi knew that the policy of encouraging childbearing, encouraging the people to reclaim wasteland, the policy of diversifying land, and the policy of reducing taxes on new land were all temporary. It won't last long, three or five years, not more than ten years. If it can last for ten years, the Song State will become a powerful country like the Qin State.

Why? Because! Once the people became rich, the kings of the Song Kingdom would think about expanding their power and participating in the struggle for hegemony and domination of the world.

And also! Those officials of the Song State, where can they see that the people live a good life. The people have a good life, and they have to live a better life than the people, or not? So what is the "government and the people"? So! Officials have to do everything they can to raise the taxes of their people, absorb the people's fat and anoint the people, and live a "high-quality" life at the level of officials.

When the time comes! The people who had just become rich returned to a life of misery and misery.

At that time, what made Zhuangzi unbearable was that those newborn people, who had not yet finished their happy childhood, would be involved in a life of misery.

Thinking of this, Zhuangzi felt that he was not enriching the people and strengthening the country, but harming the new generation. If it weren't for his policy of encouraging fertility, there would have been so many people all of a sudden. People can't live on their own, who wants to have children to drag themselves down?

He hoped that the Song Kingdom would become strong and that the people of his home country would live a good life. But? Things are not what you imagined them to be.

The Great Zhou world cannot be unified, no matter how unified management is, it cannot benefit the people, and it cannot change the current status quo. Hey! Speech! elder brother

This is the mainstream of contemporary culture: kings and officials, as well as some people who think they are smart, the so-called mainstream culture, believe that through this method, they will live better than others, and others are not capable of living a hard life.

So! If the so-called "mainstream culture" is not broken, the world cannot be unified, and the world will not be peaceful if it cannot be guided by correct cultural thinking.

Civilization always comes at a price!

This made Zhuangzi suddenly remember what Qin Daliang had said to him.

There is no way! We can only come step by step, now we, without making sacrifices, where can we exchange for a happy life for future generations?

Only by first managing the lacquer garden here, let the people of the lacquer garden become rich. Then try to develop the Song Kingdom, and then try to develop the world.

Taoism is not only the study of curing the mind, Taoism is also the study of the world!

Taoism can also be used to govern the state and society. And! Taoism manages the state and society, and it is scientific.

If you want to rule the world, you must first cure the heart. If mankind does not have a correct outlook on life, the world, and the universe, the world will not be peaceful.

So! Spreading Taoism on one's own means is indeed a bleak prospect. An example of this is Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, who spread Taoism all his life, but only on a small scale. Patriarch Yin Xi is an example, his spread is only slightly larger, spreading Taoism to the middle and lower levels, but the Heavenly Maiden scattered flowers to spread Taoism. It's like dandelion seeds, scattered everywhere, leaving to fend for themselves.

And in the period of Master Yang Zhu, he spread Taoism for a lifetime and was hunted down for a lifetime. In the end, although Taoism was spread, it was only spread for a while, and it did not become permanent. After the master went into seclusion, it was as if Taoism had disappeared from the world.

Although Taoism has been passed down, it is still spread in a small area and has not formed a climate.

And by the time of his Zhuangzi, everything had to start all over again.

Right! What the old man Bai Guibai said is not wrong! We must take the lacquer garden here as a test place and base for Taoism, and use this place as a base point to spread Taoism.

For the sake of the people of the world, what does it matter if I Zhuang Zhou captures the Song Kingdom, and what does it matter if I seize the world? The world belongs to the people, not to kings and officials! Officials are just clerks of the people, how can it be reversed? But they have risen above the heads of the people.

What is a king? Traditionally, they are only flattering Providence. And what has become of the king today? They are all just thinking about their own territory, power, honor, and personal enjoyment of life.

Change! I'm going to change!

For the sake of the common people in the world, what I Zhuang Zhou did was right.

Again! I, Zhuang Zhou, am also a descendant of the Song royal family, and it is reasonable for me to be in charge of the Song Kingdom. As long as I have the force to rule the world, what does it matter if I am in charge of the world?

When an era is chaotic and over, those who adapt to the times can stand up and rule the world. History! That's how it evolved. Zhou came because of Shang, and Shang Dynasty came because of Xia......

Suddenly! When Zhuangzi came to his senses, he realized that he had thought too much. only to find out that the Dai family and the town elder were looking at him.

Not good! Something must have gone wrong with me again.

Thinking of the last time he had with his father-in-law, and thinking of the matter with his son, Zhuangzi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

No way? Am I exposed again? I?

My thoughts were known to the Dai family and the mayor?

It doesn't matter if the mayor of the town knows about it, if it is known by this Dai Ben's family, it will be a big trouble. I?

Unafraid! Anyway! Dai Ben's family, he's a dead man! He's going to die. I won't let him return to the capital of the Song Kingdom alive. I will not let him report my plan to the king, and let the king give me any credit.

It was also when Zhuangzi was talking about how to manage the lacquer garden, and Dai Benjia suddenly thought of a problem, feeling that Zhuangzi was a very dangerous person.

Oh, yes? Zhuangzi is also a descendant of the royal family, a descendant of Song Daigong! Our Dai family can inherit the throne, and his Zhuang family can also inherit the throne......

After the atmosphere returned to normal, everyone talked for a while, the banquet dispersed, and the three of them dispersed.

When the mayor returns to his family, he finds himself soaking wet. Alas! A thrilling banquet is over. He asked his mother-in-law to hurry up and order him to go down, he wanted to take a bath, take a bath.

Dai Daguan also left from the town office, returned to the Qiyuan Station, and wrote a report to the king overnight, reporting everything that happened here in Qiyuan. Especially about Bai Gui and Zhuangzi, especially about Zhuangzi. This Zhuangzi should not be underestimated. He is a descendant of the royal family, he has talents, and this kind of person is a dangerous person, and it is easy to usurp the throne of the Song Kingdom......

Zhuangzi returned home, and the house was quiet. Mai'er sat under the light and worked as a female worker, and the brother in black was nowhere to be seen. After saying hello to the seller, he was going to go to the Qiyuan Wine Store to find the money shopkeeper.

He instinctively didn't believe in the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn, and he was not at ease with Zhao Dacheng. Only this money shopkeeper, he thinks that he is stable and reliable.

"Brother Zhuang!"

He stopped him, opened the door of the hall, and dragged him into the hall. The hall was dark, and the seller naturally held him tightly.

"I've got something to do!"

"I know you're in trouble, I just want to hug you!"

"Hmm!" Zhuangzi snorted in his nose, and he was left to sell.

Selling hugged him for a while before letting him go.

"He's gone! Nasty! ”

"He didn't say anything when he left?"

"Nope!"

"Hmm!" Zhuangzi snorted again.

"Brother Zhuang! What happened to you? You? ”

"Brother Zhuang has encountered an accident, I want to find him! He's good! Let's go! ”

"I'll tell him the next time he comes!"

"What's the matter?"

That's it! A black shadow flashed in the courtyard, and the black-clothed senior brother jumped down.
