Chapter 198 Times Are Changing

If there is anything in this world that can easily break through the obstruction of aristocratic families, it is naked interests.All the hustle and bustle in the world is for profit, isn't the pursuit of aristocratic families also profit?If Zhang Wu is willing to give up part of this huge benefit to the aristocratic family, I believe they will not only not block it, but will also strongly support it.

Jingzhou Biejia Liu Xian said: "I would like to ask the governor, if this thing is widely spread in the world, wouldn't everyone be able to read it and understand the truth? The sage Confucius once said: The people can let it go, It cannot be made known!"

Liu Xian's words were recognized by many people. Ordinary people, just let them follow the path guided by the ruler. They don't need to know why.If the common people have read books and understand the principles of the world, what if they think that the path guided by the ruler is not good?
Zhang Wuze said with a smile: "Liu Biejia's words are wrong. The sage Confucius didn't say what you said! The original words of the sage Confucius should be: people can let them know; otherwise, why would sage Confucius want to Propose 'teach without discrimination', recruit three thousand disciples? Why do you still say 'learn without tire, teach others tirelessly'?"

After hearing Zhang Wu's explanation, everyone was amazed that the same sentence, but different sentences have diametrically opposite meanings.At that time, there were no punctuation marks, and the so-called authoritative people decided how to punctuate sentences. Anyway, Confucius had been dead for such a long time, and no one could go to him for verification.

Without waiting for everyone to react, Zhang Wu said again: "Everyone has books to read, and everyone understands the truth, isn't it? Zhang's lifelong wish is to hope that the people of the world, everyone has land, and everyone has books to read! Of course. , this lofty goal cannot be achieved by me alone, so I need everyone here to work together with me!"

This is the first time Zhang Wu has expressed his ambition on an important occasion. Of course, this is just expressing his true thoughts in high-sounding words.Just like rebels don't directly say "I want to rebel", but say "conspiracy for big things".

No matter what you think, anyway, I said it beautifully, I just think about the common people in the world.

Everyone else heard the hidden meaning from the second half of Zhang Wu's words, that is, there are so many people in the world, I can't do it alone, and I need your help!

This is to give up part of the power and interests to those who are willing to help him.

Pang Tong said in a timely manner: "My lord has a heart for the common people in the world, and my subordinates admire me very much. I am willing to use my modest efforts to help my lord realize his great wish. I will do my best and die!"

Afterwards, Xu Shu, Mi Heng, Ma Liang, Xiang Lang and other direct descendants of Zhang Wu also said in unison: "I am willing to do my best for the Lord, and I will die!"

Chen Sun, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and other generals also said impassionedly: "I am willing to go through fire and water for my lord, and I will do whatever I want!"

Zhang Wu said with a smile: "Okay, everyone has worked hard. When the day is complete, the people of the world will never forget your contributions. All people with lofty ideals who are willing to fight for this goal are our friends. All the white paper made will be released to it!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't sit still. This was to share the huge benefits of printing books with those who followed him!

The most troublesome step in printing a book is engraving, and the most critical link is suitable paper.Although engraving is troublesome, but there are so many craftsmen in the world, it is enough to find a few more and slowly engrave, but it cannot be printed without suitable paper.

If you go to craftsmen to explore and improve papermaking techniques, by the time you make suitable paper, they will have already run out of money.As long as this kind of book is not wet or damp, it can be stored for more than ten years without any problem.The Metropolitan Government's protection of technology is still in place, and the brewing technology of General Liquor is still only in the hands of Zhang Wu.

So all the Jingzhou officials stood up and said: "We are also willing to do our best for the governor, and we will die!"

Zhang Wu said: "Okay, with everyone's help, why worry about the big things not being done? Come, let us drink this cup together and wish us a better tomorrow!"

Everyone raised their glasses and said, "Congratulations to the governor!"

After the banquet was over, Zhang Wuren sent a copy of "The Great Learning" to Liu Qi and everyone under Liu Bei's command.

Both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang also knew what happened in the banquet later, and they flipped through the books lightly, not knowing what they were thinking.

After reading it, Zhuge Liang sighed and said: "I never thought that Dudu Zhang still has such ambitions. "Guanzi" once said: "The warehouse is real and you know the etiquette, and you know the honor and disgrace if you have enough food and clothing. I just don't know if Zhang Dudu really has this ambition? Or is he buying people's hearts?" yeah?"

Liu Bei said: "No matter what Dudu Zhang thinks, once this book is published, people from poor families and ordinary people in the world will no longer suffer from having no books to read. This is a great contribution to the world!"

Zhang Fei said: "I think Dudu Zhang really cares about the people. Did the elder brother, the second brother and the military adviser hear what Dudu Zhang said to Cheng Yu? All captured generals under Cao Cao's command can be redeemed. Only Cheng Yu can't, he wants to seek justice for the common people."

Guan Yu also said: "When I was in Nanjun, I also knew that the people supported Zhang Dudu very much, and I am very grateful for Zhang Dudu's kindness."

Zhuge Liang also knows that once this book is published, scholars all over the world will slowly return to their hearts, and the times will change!
At the same time, in the mansion of the former top family in Jingzhou, the current patriarch Kuai Yue also flipped through the book "University" he got from nowhere with mixed feelings.

Of course, Kuai Yue also inquired about what happened at the banquet in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. In this wise man's view, the Kuai family has reached the most critical moment, and it depends on his choice whether to re-emerge or just fade away.

To be honest, Kuai Yue never looked up to Zhang Wu before. Even after Zhang Wu seized power in Jingzhou by virtue of the military coup, Kuai Yue still looked down on Zhang Wu, thinking that Zhang Wu would be defeated and eliminated by Cao Cao sooner or later.

Therefore, no matter how Zhang Wu suppressed the Kuai family, Kuai Yue was not afraid and endured it silently.As long as Cao Cao's army comes, Zhang Wu can't be captured without a fight, and then his Kuai family can't regain power?
But the subsequent development was a bit beyond Kuai Yue's expectations. That Zhang Wu actually summoned a large number of civil servants and generals, and his wings gradually became full.The strange thing is that the people he recruited were all unknown people before, but once they came under his command, they turned out to be top talents.

Kuai Yue is also quite conceited. He never thought that Pang Tong, the boasted clown boy of the Pang family, and Xu Shu, a fugitive, would have talents not inferior to his. Gan Ning, Ding Feng, Wei Yan and a group of people with bad backgrounds are now famous all over the world.

Relying on these people, Zhang Wu repelled the attacks of Cao Cao and Sun Quan, and completely gained a foothold in Jingzhou.

Now that this book is published, Zhang Wu's reputation will be unparalleled for a while, and scholars all over the world will praise him, because this is fulfilling the saint's ambition of "educating the world"!
