The leisurely life of rebirth.

Dachengzi made tea, held the teacups, and handed them to Fang Monan and Fatty one by one. Shitou stood up and took the teacups.Da Chengzi took a sip, rubbed the rim of the cup with his hand, and said leisurely, "I'm not afraid of stone jokes, I'm also a human being, and I feel a little flustered when I look at the rising numbers on my bank account. I feel that money comes too easily. Forget about it, I think I’m quite capable.”

"Dad!" Shitou worriedly grabbed Dachengzi's hand.

"The mentality of an upstart." Fang Monan took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Nannan is right. The mentality of the nouveau riche is all about money. Now having money means having everything. When you are full of warmth and lust, you start to covet enjoyment, don't think about making progress, and pursue a comfortable and comfortable life. Although material life I am relatively rich, but my spiritual life is unacceptable.” Dachengzi patted Shitou’s hand, “I’m fine now, very fine!” Dachengzi continued, “Bubbing Kungfu tea is a kind of peace of mind. Brewing often takes a lot of time, but after a series of procedures, I gradually feel that brewing Kung Fu tea is actually a kind of state of mind, a kind of tranquility, a kind of serenity, and it is also a way of self-cultivation." He paused and said, "More Most of it is the cognition you brought me, it's better to keep a low profile."

"Speaking of the nouveau riche's mentality, I used to have it too." The fat man rubbed his nose without any embarrassment. "I feel that I have some money and I am very capable, as if I am much more noble than others all of a sudden. This state of mind naturally trembles unnaturally. I am often arrogant and arrogant. I feel that I am the best in the world, and there is a kind of self-sacrifice." It's who's feeling. Be a man and act arrogantly, dare to compete with everyone. Who is afraid of whom!" He gave Fang Monan a deep look. Compared with others, he couldn't shake, and put his restless heart It was turned off all of a sudden, and I wanted to thank her and Liang Zi.It was they who allowed themselves to see clearly how much they weighed, and adjusted their positions. [

Fang Monan didn't seem to see Fatty's meaningful eyes, and she understood why he was like this.In fact, the most important thing is to look at your own mentality. There is really very little help that others can give, but Fang Monan is also happy for them to see that they have adjusted so well.

"Although we have a long history of 5000 years of civilization, it is difficult to form a relatively permanent social group due to the constant change of dynasties of "the long-term division must be united, and the long-term union must be divided". Therefore, in the ancient land of China, the family history is far less developed than that of Western Europe, rich and poor, high and low , the frequent changes of elegance and vulgarity, and the self-sufficiency and closedness of the society make China's aristocratic consciousness lack. It is more "upstart" consciousness." Fang Monan went on to say, "A real noble family must have a long-term and Stable foundation in time and space, with superior characteristics such as deep roots, liberal arts independence, inclusiveness, etc., and good performance in political status, economic conditions, cultural literacy, etc. The continuous aristocratic tradition in Western Europe makes its wealthy people more elegant. Most of its cultural celebrities come from noble families. This is rare in China so far. There may be some, but compared with Western Europe, it is still weak. Qufu's "literary sage" Confucian family has many descendants, but unfortunately it can only be maintained. Difficult."

"We don't have aristocrats! It's natural that such aristocratic families can't survive, because the landlords have been "swept away" as early as during the revolution. These people are so frightened that they can't wait for eight generations of their ancestors to rely on poor peasants." The fat man sneered.

Dachengzi and Shitou nodded. "That's the truth."

Fang Monan put down his teacup and spread his hands, "So! It's hard to be aristocratic, and "upstarts" are flooding the stage of history and today's society. Those who are "upstarts" are just due to some kind of opportunity. The region is in full swing. If you have accumulated a lot of capital in a certain area, you will be proud and arrogant. This can be analyzed from three aspects: politics, economy, and culture." She paused and continued, "Politically speaking, the Chinese universe changes frequently. The rulers seem to go up and down, so-called "emperors take turns", "one emperor and one courtier". Under the background, it is difficult to form an aristocratic system. Liu Bang, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhu Yuanzhang...all came from humble backgrounds. Kangxi and Qianlong were also arty I have written a lot of poems, but at best they are just "lime poems". The Southern Tang Empress, Li Jing, Li Yu and his father and son. Poems, songs and prose are all good, but because of this, they lost the world, and they couldn't start well and end well."

"Economically..."

"I'll talk about the economy." The fat man looked at Fang Monan and saw her nodding, so he said: "In terms of economy, people like us have a low level of education, and some of them are even from the background of bums and gangsters on the street. Get rich. The mentality of this "upstart" is more fully expressed. In history, so many people made their fortunes by relying on merchants, or relying on officials to do their best; It is the most typical "upstart", many "time-honored brands" in the capital and other provinces, except for the world-renowned products, there are no outstanding figures or huge families."

Fang Monan nodded slightly, and frowned again, "The most frightening thing is the cultural nouveau riche. This is the worst performance. Whether you have aristocratic traits or not, the key depends on your cultural accomplishment. The imperial examination system was practiced in ancient times, and many scholars came from poor families. Haoshou Poor Classics, once the gold list is inscribed, they are officials in the court, and they are among the top. "The spring breeze is proud of the horseshoe disease", they rarely have family background, most of them just memorize blindly, how can they see great achievements if they have real talents? Of course, there are also those who are capable of poetry and prose, versatile, or have achieved some achievements to become real cultural people. They may be in the court or in the wild, and their articles are colorful and lively. However, due to fear of "literary prison", they are often cautious and cautious, and their careers develop. There are also restrictions, so it is difficult to form an aristocratic group."

"Isn't freedom of speech being advocated now!" Shitou said.

"Ha! Ha!" Fang Monan laughed.

Dachengzi patted Shitou on the head, "Listen more, memorize more, read more, and talk less. Remember these eight words no matter where you are."

The fat man changed the subject with a smile and said, "Looking back at history, no matter whether we or Western countries, the rise of a big country has never had such an upstart mentality? Human nature is like this, and people's weaknesses are like this. It's normal, but it requires self-regulation and restraint." own desire."

Look at the first batch of people who got rich were not the so-called intellectuals and bureaucratic businessmen, but those poor people who had no means of living or no way out.Reform and opening up is a good time. As long as you have the courage, there are enough policy loopholes for you to play tricks to raise money.

The coast relies on smuggling, the small border town relies on courage, and the big city with strict management needs to rely on connections.Smuggling is not all about drugs and guns, which are endlessly reported on TV. Those who can really catch this line are all tough men who have enough background and even risk their lives.

Fur smuggling, metal smuggling, home appliances smuggling, and people smuggling, especially in the north, you can exchange a bag of flour for a bag of copper, a few high-end leather clothes, or a beautiful foreign girl.Of course, if you really don't understand her, you can resell it to someone else.At the most rampant time, you can see that on the border of the small town, people brazenly bribe the border guards every day, resisting bags of daily food in exchange for goods that make them rich.This should be a true portrayal of the Sino-Soviet border.However, this is at best a small fight, and the big players are much more aggressive.Fishing boats on the high seas, trucks on national highways, and all available tools were pulled out.

After the limelight of opening up has passed, the country has made great efforts to rectify, but most people put their hands back and start cleaning and bleaching, trying their best to plan for the rest of their lives.And those people who are jealous after knowing it, missed the opportunity and can only fight with their lives, but it seems that the end is very miserable!

Although Fatty and Dachengzi didn't start out as gangsters, but money comes easily, and people are prone to make mistakes.

"We remind ourselves all the time, don't cock our tails!" Da Chengzi looked at Fang Monan and said.

"What are you looking at me for? It's the result of your own hard work." Fang Monan waved his hand. [

"The boss doesn't often say that there are four basic principles in life: 'First, learn to choose; second, know how to give up; third, endure loneliness; fourth, withstand temptation.' Success. I remind myself often.”

"Speaking of choices." Dachengzi said, "A person's choice of living environment, lifestyle, quality of life, work attitude, and life are all related to a person's outlook on life. It can be said that daily life, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all inseparable from choices. Choices run through the entire process of life. There are choices everywhere in life. Choices determine the trajectory and glorious course of life. So , learn to choose, life is half the success.”

Fang Monan gave a thumbs up, "Biao uncle is very knowledgeable!"

Da Chengzi scratched his head, feeling a bit out of sorts.Shitou continued, "My father also reads a lot in his spare time. Although he is very busy, he still finds time to read. At first, he didn't know some words, and he even asked me to explain the meaning of the words to him!" He looked at Daddy with emotion. Cheng Zi said, "Honestly, I am quite impressed. I can read a lot of books since I don't know a lot of big characters. It's really true..."

"The truth is very superficial. These are just some life insights! Your grandfather also has a series of great principles." Dachengzi said casually. "A mediocre person is defeated by laziness, and a capable person is defeated by arrogance. There are two kinds of people in the world who are bound to fail miserably. One is the lazy person, and the other is the proud person. The former wants to do everything "tomorrow", but the result is always the same thing. Cheng; the latter looks down on everyone in the world, thinks he is the smartest, and often attracts dissatisfaction and resentment from others, so he is often slandered, cursed, and finally swallowed up by malicious slander."
