My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 330: People’s livelihood depends on hard work, but hard work means nothing (third update!)

If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

If a person does not be himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

Although this is an era of extreme material poverty, the spirit of the people of this era is as pure as the snow on the Tianshan Mountains.

Their friendship is mellower than any wine.

Their ideological world is also very rich.

The meaning of life was something that almost every person in the Warring States Period had considered during the long nights.

Most people have been taught this sentence since childhood.

You have to be yourself.

Therefore, finding one's destiny and the meaning of one's existence is the task for everyone in this era.

Many people always believe that the ancients were willing to become common people because they were enslaved by their rulers.

This is not the case.

There are some common people who have known about the existence of destiny for a long time.

As farmers, some people will be happy to accept their fate, work diligently on the land, and will not do evil and unjust things.

For the same craftsmen, some people are willing to accept their own fate and insist on making every object well.

They have little culture and cannot even read.

But the principles they understand and the way they conduct themselves are actually no less noble than those who have merit to a certain extent.

In ancient times, some nobles thought that the common people were stupid. However, some common people have a thorough understanding of the workings of the world, wealth and poverty.

In fact, at that time, the inner world of the vast majority of common people was not necessarily poorer than that of later generations. Maybe even the complete opposite.

The richer materially, the poorer spiritually. The poorer the material, the richer the spirit.

Don't be fooled into thinking that if you trap a person in one-third of an acre, their life will wither.

On the contrary, in the most ordinary life, many people feel the joy of being a human being and the warmth and warmth of human relationships.

Someone once said that the Chinese people can endure hardships and stand hard work. As long as they have employment opportunities, they will earn more. "

He believed that people would use their hard-working hands to get what they wanted.

In fact, in the countryside, ordinary people have already understood the truth.

They summed up valuable experience. Small wealth lies in diligence, great wealth lies in heaven. You can't keep the ill-gotten gains once they come.

If a person wants to have enough to eat, he only needs to be diligent; but if he wants to pursue great wealth, it depends on whether God is willing to give him this opportunity.

As for ill-gotten wealth, it must come quickly, but it also leaves quickly. And whether it's giving or getting, the price to pay in the middle is huge.

Therefore, people who understand life are very calm.

But... I don’t know why, some people’s desires are like rolling stones on mountains and refuse to stop, and they also inflict their own pain on others.

In order to satisfy their own selfish desires, some old nobles insisted on exploiting the people, robbing their land, and robbing their wives and daughters.

They have to work hard day after day, but they are not given enough food to eat.

So in such an era, how could the common people not feel resentful and live in peace and contentment?

How can the world not be in chaos?

But even if it has become a mess, people are precarious, and they can't have enough to eat, people will naturally still think about what the meaning of life is. People like Jing Ke don't have to worry about food and drink, they have plenty of time. And with the nirvana in his possession, traveling around the world would have been a pleasure.

But character determines destiny. He likes to work alone, cannot be a leader, and does not like a stable life.

The longer and more comfortable life he lived, the more confused he became about the meaning of his existence.

In a sense, Jing Ke is also a person whose destiny was unexpectedly changed by Fusu.

Without the existence of Yan Dan, he, like many knights, could only be like duckweed floating on the lake, being blown by the wind and rising and falling with the waves.

His life, from the moment he lost his parents but firmly chose justice, was destined to be a road of no return.

So without people like Yan Dan to appreciate him and recognize him, Jing Ke would naturally feel that his world was barren and his actions would not be recognized.

He does not feel that his existence is needed.

It was during this long period of wandering and feeling the length and meaninglessness of life that the important and historic task of assassinating the prince of Qin was placed in front of them.

It is a historic mission. Jing Ke and others naturally do not understand this proper term.

But they knew how much impact it would have on history once the assassination of Prince Fusu was successful. The history of the world may be rewritten because of this.

When he got the news that the prince of Qin was leaving Xianyang and coming to the land of Yanzhao and Qilu, his silent heart suddenly burst into flames.

After hearing the leader's words, Jing Ke strengthened his previous thoughts.

He wanted to kill the prince of Qin to benefit the people of the world.

"The prince of Qin has at least a thousand people protecting him. Even if we get their marching route, we can't get close to the prince of Qin."

"Even though each of us is a master, the opponent has a numerical advantage. Once we get close to them, it is almost difficult to move. And under the gaze of thousands of people, it is very easy to be exposed."

"In this case, the operation will fail before it even starts."

After Jing Ke said this, everyone naturally turned their eyes to his shoulders.

"When doing this, you must keep it secret. Naturally, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Not only that, the person who executes it must also have the ability to hit with one hit."

Everyone turned their attention to Jing Ke again.

"With all due respect, among the people here, I am the only one who has the ability to do such a thing."

Someone bared his teeth in anger, then slapped the table and shouted, "Jing Ke, don't be too arrogant. Why do you say that only you can accomplish it?"

Jing Ke was very calm, his eyes as dark as ink, "Just because I was scolded by someone, I won't be so angry that I slap the table."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

"Okay, okay." Others hurried forward to comfort the brother.

They are both righteous, they can quarrel and fight, but they will never backstab, and they secretly hate each other.

After drinking a few bottles of wine, nothing happened.

Jing Ke was a master, and his strategy was not inferior to anyone present.

Don't forget, the initiator of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin was Yan Dan, but the entire plan was designed by Jing Ke.

That's a perfect fit!

If Qin Wuyang hadn't been the first to take the initiative, history might have said that Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin would have been successful.
