my old life

Chapter 3257 The Essence Of Respect

The man in front of me who is serious about making clay sculptures really surprised me, and I even couldn't understand it...

As the son of a tycoon, he could have obtained many things. He has better advantages than ordinary people, and he has a higher platform... Even many people can't reach the height of his starting point after working hard for a lifetime.

As the saying goes, all roads lead to Rome, but he was born in Rome, and he stood on the shoulders of giants overlooking everything, but he chose to make this thing according to his own preferences.

I know he's not stupid, it's just that the path he chose is incomprehensible, because he gave up too much...

Time passed quietly. When a vase was finished, he took out a bunch of carving knives and carefully modified and carved it. Even a little bit of curvature was required to be smooth and smooth.

I don’t know why I still admire him at this moment, because not everyone can do what they like according to their own wishes. How many people in this world can regard their hobbies as work?

In particular, he boldly pursues what he likes and is not bound by the shackles of the world. This alone makes me admire him!
This has nothing to do with strength, money, Jianghu experience, and the level of the city, it's only about the inner choice...

If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it!
Even if my second uncle didn't get as far as King Bei, I also benefited a lot. Under his protection, I could avoid many detours in life... But he completely gave up all of this and resolutely chose his favorite s things.

I understand why he brought me here to see, in fact, his purpose is very simple, to prove that he is not a waste, he is just doing what he likes, nothing more!

"Xiong Sanming, how do you feel now?"

"I think your choice is very good. It is a happy thing to be able to devote all your energy to the things you like!"

"No, I'm asking if you still insist on the idea before you came here? Do you want to be friends with someone like me? Do you want to cooperate with someone like me?"

Faced with this question, I hesitated a bit, because I came here to play tricks, not to play games... let alone to play in the mud!
But facing such a choice and problem at the moment, I don't know how to choose.

"It seems that you need a little time, don't you want to try it yourself?" He pointed to the turntable and mud next to him, and I rolled up my shirt sleeves and sat down.

With the rotation of the turntable, I put my hands on the mud, and the mud can change into different shapes according to the strength and shape of my hands.

The palm of my hand can clearly feel the feeling brought by the friction of mud, and I can also clearly feel a sense of lubrication and soft cotton, and this is the first time I have tried such a thing.

"Xiong Sanming, you can try to make a bowl, start with the simplest one, and tell me your answer after you finish it."

"Okay." I nodded to show that I understood, and I started to make a bowl carefully.

Although it is crooked to make, I feel that I have no idea after trying it a few times, and it seems that there is no technical content, but it is far from being as simple as it looks!
At this moment, time seems to be at a standstill. There is only a slight sound from the turntable in the room, and there is an oven for baking next to it...

After several hard attempts, I felt much better, and at this moment, I suddenly understood that the choice he made was right!

Even if he chooses a path that everyone says is wrong, but for him this path is correct, that's enough!

In the past, my second uncle often said that to be a human being, you must first be worthy of yourself. If you are even sorry for yourself, who else can you be worthy of?
"Have you thought about it? Now tell me your answer, do you think I'm not doing my job properly?"

"I don't think you are not doing your job properly, but I feel a little envious of you." I said with a smile, this is my sincere words.

"Envy me? Why?"

"You can choose what you like and stick to it. No one can understand your world, and no one can understand you... If they can understand, then they will become you."

This is a very simple truth, don't try to understand those who you can't understand, because not everyone can count.

"Is this what you understand?"

"Yes, this is my understanding. When everyone says you shouldn't do this, they are pitying you, pitying those resources that have not been fully utilized."

I shrugged my shoulders with a smile, and simply wiped my hands and took out a cigarette to light. This guy has given up too much!

If other people have his resources, then at the worst, they can make a name for themselves. I dare not say that the famous side is also famous in the world.

"No matter how many things I created, what is there to regret? Then everything has nothing to do with me, but these clay sculptures have something to do with me!"

He pointed to the vase made next to it. It looked as exquisite as a handicraft, but its value was very little.

"The realm that others may not be able to reach in their lifetime, but you are within reach, but you just throw everything away like rubbish... Isn't this something to be regretted?"

I smiled and asked, in this world there is a question of return on value, not all values ​​are worth money.

When the skill has not reached its peak, when it cannot be called a master, the value of these bottles and jars can be easily replaced.

In other words, anyone can make clay sculptures, but not everyone can be the second son of the Northern King, and not everyone is qualified to stand on the shoulders of giants and overlook the world!
"A lot of people don't understand you, including me...but now I do."

"I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that there would be a person who understands me like this. You are the second one."

"Is the first one your wife Muzi Li? Does she understand you and support you?"

I asked curiously. It is not difficult to see from their feelings that there must be a relationship between them.

The basis of relationship is nothing more than that, either they have common hobbies and appreciate each other, or they feel that they are in the right place.

"You are very smart, I have heard your story, and I know that you are very powerful... But you think carefully, do you really want to cooperate with someone like me?"

"Before I answer your question, I want to ask you a question, a very simple question, how?"

I looked at him with a smile, I knew what he was thinking, and I also knew the purpose of coming here today!

"Okay, you can ask." He agreed without even thinking about it. It can be seen that he is very relaxed and casual at the moment. I don't know if he is acting rashly or the city is too deep.

To put it bluntly, a man immersed in the mud, no matter how many resources and family background he has, the mud cannot support the wall!

The partner I want to cooperate with cannot be rubbish, it must be unique!Either it will bring me benefits, or it will bring me security, it can be both but not for nothing!
"The Buddha is alive to save all living beings, but have you ever wondered why there are so many Arhat Buddhas, Vajra Buddhas, and Fighting Buddhas?"

"I haven't thought about it, does this have something to do with me?" He asked with a smile, it seems that he really didn't want to understand.

"Actually, I want to say that there is nothing unique in this world, and there is nothing that can be recognized by everyone! Including the Buddha, he also needs all kinds of arhats to defend himself and his position!"

As soon as he said this, his face changed a little. He should know that I used a metaphor, a metaphor that is not very appropriate but easy to understand.

"Actually, in this world, all respect returns to the essence of fear. If the Buddha does not have enough manpower and strength, how can he deter the demons and monsters in the world?"

I didn't point it out directly, but kept giving him hints, letting him figure it out by himself.

If I tell him some things directly, he will feel that I am deliberately guiding him, and he can only understand it by himself, and then he will really understand!
"I understand what you mean, but it's different..." His tone was hesitant, and I knew he was shaken!
"In other words, just like you now, you want to live a peaceful and ordinary life, but if you don't have enough strength to protect yourself, then you will fall into pain and you will have countless troubles!"
