The beauty of this world is like a beam of light, which is colorful, covering all the light around it. If you think this world is like this, then you are thinking too much.

Once the light is not so transparent, there is no lotus, only the mud under the lotus.

The low-level production methods, solidified ideas, and the idea that people are alive is to suffer together, which makes countless people think, what is life and what is death?

Is it important?

unimportant.

Then what's important?

They don't know.

The confused eyes stimulated Ye Tan. This should not be like this in this world.

Who can remember these people who are singing and dancing in Chang'an City? These people are also people of the Tang Dynasty and our descendants of Yan and Huang.

In addition, this place is also Ye Tan’s hometown in later generations.

Such a place looks like this, why do you say for?

We always see the so-called shaking and powerful things in history books, but there are not many places in the true sense.

“They’re cold.”

Ye Tan pondered for a moment before saying slowly, "I used to think that poor people are resistant to freezing. After all, they are all poor people, and they don't have any clothes, how can they be resistant to freezing? But later I realized that this is not the case. They are not resistant to freezing, but are making transactions with God. Every time the cold comes, some of their people, even most of them, die, and devote their lives to the god of death, and then the rest can survive."

"I would like to ask Master Kong, you always say that people will recover themselves. How can they recover in such an environment?"

Ye Tan's words made Kong Yingda not know what to say, because the recovery mentioned in the past was not such a person at all. Such a person doesn't even count as a pariah, but just mud.

How can the silt recover? It is simply impossible.

As for people, it is very difficult to live. Do you think modern people will definitely not be like this?

Sometimes, human life is not as good as grass. The grass we usually see seems to be able to recover, while humans die and have nothing left.

"Later, I asked them, do you know which year it is now? Master Kong, do you know how they said it?"

Ye Tan's words stimulated the other party like a knife, but Li Tai interrupted at this time. Although he didn't know why, it was true.

"What do they say? Don't you know? It's impossible. No matter what, if the court is established, it will definitely promote all directions. I remember that the people in Haizhou and Dengzhou were scholars. I took the initiative to go to these two places, and then made my father happy, and said that the people's hearts were available."

"They said they didn't know." Ye Tan said coldly, as if he was the one who was bullied.

"How is it possible? Why don't they know? Could it be that it was intentional?" Li Tai continued to ask, like the person who was supporting the role in crosstalk.

Kong Yingda did not look at Ye Tan or Li Tai, but stared at the wine and food on the table, feeling that life seemed a bit strange.

"What would you think if you are so hungry that you will starve to death at any time?"

Ye Tan did not answer directly, but asked back.

"Looking for food." Li Tai said naturally.

"If the outside world changes and has nothing to do with being able to have enough food, will you pay attention to the outside world?"

Ye Tan asked again, which made Li Tai stunned, then shook his head and said, "If it has nothing to do with me, and if I want to starve to death, I will definitely ignore the outside world."

"They are the same."

Ye Tan directly hung up this topic. Sometimes, people starved to death. What are you thinking?

"Then I went to check it out and found that although the land was not good, there were still some good things, such as things on the table and many other things. Unfortunately, they didn't know how to do it, and some people even thought it was futile. Later, I went to find the governors of two places, Master Kong, and do you know what they were doing?"

Ye Tan's words were trapped, so people ignored them.

Although Kong Yingda didn't ask, he knew that if those people were chatting, they would definitely be good at everything. But if it was something else, forget it, they were not the material. In fact, they had been popular in Confucianism for so many years, how could they not know about this problem? But sometimes, the world is so strange, that is, those who learn this thing get benefits from it, so you are not allowed to change it. The so-called six arts of gentlemen are not kidding, they all work hard. If it is done in history, it is still okay. If it is in the Ming Dynasty, then it will be unlucky. Everyone will automatically come up with other solutions to the matter as they agreed with each other.

"Although they were in two different places, they were both drunk and still not awake. I asked some local people and asked what they said the most. The master worked very hard and went to a party. How many beauties and related celebrities were there? They were all very envious. Since they were envious, they naturally tried hard to get close, but they didn't even have food to eat. How do they study? Do they rely on drinking the northwest wind?"

"Later, I had no choice but to let the merchants of Songzhou enter it. At that time, to be honest, Confucius and Songzhou only had more than 30 people recognized me, and the others opposed it. They thought that since the court did not care, we are like the people who promoted the people like us, would you care about this? But, I told them at that time, what should I do if they starved to death? Will I be the marquis? Later, I took out 300,000 guan of money to protect them. If I compensated at that time, I would give them all the money, and they would agree. After going to those two places, it would be no less than a wild land, because it was simply

There was nothing left. The initial investment exceeded 2 million chunks, and there were countless manpower and material resources. Many people said I was crazy. But, am I crazy? When we went to two places, we took the initiative to find local governments, hoping to cooperate. As a result, people thought we were making trouble, but they didn't agree. Of course, in recent years, you have heard some news. The governors of these two places would submit memorials to the court from time to time, saying that the local people were originally simple, because the people in Songzhou took the lead in doing business here and went to sea to catch fish, which made the local people feel wild. It would be bad if this continued. I heard at that time

When this news came, I almost laughed to death because where is the local customs simple? People die every day, and most of them are unclothed. Is this a good thing? Is it necessary to snap this part? Is it because some people are familiar with these governors. They saw that the wharf was built, the market was spread out, and the staff was clean. So, they planned to take over. They originally planned to do something through the governor and then take away all the things. This method is the best. Unfortunately, they forgot about the strong strength of my Songzhou. They have been constantly in conflict over the past few years, but unfortunately, there is still no result.

Yes, they still did not give up on this, and even sent people to kidnap some local people. Did you see that person outside? You see if this person is very strong? But when I met him, there were only three things on him, skin, bones, internal organs, and other things. But now, he is a strong man. Later, when we slowly wanted to cooperate with local people, the bullshit scholar actually asked not to agree, otherwise, he would let people get out. Such a person, haha, now, if he is in any slightly messy era, he has to die."

Ye Tan's words made them see the person at the door. The person looked very strong, but from his face, it can be seen that he came from the beach. There is no so-called maintenance stuff now. So, once he becomes the so-called seaman, there will be no way to change it for a while, and even if he is fat, he will not be able to do so.

"But the news I received was that many people die every year when going to sea. Did more than 30 die last year?"

Kong Yingda seemed to see a demon-like hell look, and couldn't help asking.

"Yes, there's something going on."

Ye Tan knew that even if there were various protections now, the shipbuilding industry of the Tang Dynasty was actually not as good as that of the Song Dynasty, because the Song Dynasty had no choice but to the north was the Liao Kingdom. If you want to make money to maintain the operation of the country, you need to develop other places. The sea is a way, so in order to undertake this work, everyone can only go out to sea honestly. Isn’t that great?

"How can you let this happen? When the governor of Dengzhou sent this news, I was so heartbroken. I could live a good life, so why did I do this? Are they not the people of my Tang Dynasty?"

Kong Yingda's words are heartbreaking. Yes, life is a little better now, why do you still do that?

Isn't it a very painful feeling?

Listen, it's a very interesting truth.

Ye Tan looked at Kong Yingda and asked, "Master Kong, I have a question. I want to ask for advice and then answer your question, okay?"

Kong Yingda didn't know how to speak, so she could only sigh, "You ask."

Li Tai and Kong Xiaoyu were both stunned. The answers of these two people were a bit similar to those of the right ones. If you don’t participate in some things, you don’t know how hard he has worked.

"My Tang Dynasty has been established. It can be said that there are very few wars. In recent years, under the wise rule of His Majesty, rebellion has almost disappeared. So, why do you still have to station troops in the border area? There are more than 100,000 people. These people not only consume a large amount of taxes and various materials paid by the people, but they are also in the border area. Many of them are from Hanzhong. As a result, they have not been able to go home for several years to see their wives and parents. Why don't they call them back and gather together and live a good life?"

Ye Tan's words stunned Kong Yingda. This question looked very old. In fact, some people have asked and reported to Li Shimin over the years. However, what kind of emperor is Li Shimin? He is an emperor. For him, without the protection of soldiers and horses, he still cannot live this life, and it is very terrible. He may not be able to withstand it at night and dare not sleep.

The soldiers were on the frontier not only to ensure that the emperor could fall asleep peacefully, but also to protect the Tang Dynasty, a slowly built country, with a stable environment. This is that simple.

"How can this be? If they are not here, the barbarians will rush in, and the world of the Tang Dynasty will turn into ruins. I remember that you are also a well-read person. You should remember the Five Barbarians' incident at the beginning, right?"

"Well, Master Kong said it right, it's true. They can't come back. If they come back, no one in the Tang Dynasty can sleep in a stable life. Is that the truth?"

"Yes." Kong Yingda nodded, indicating that this was his own idea.

"So, what about their family life? What about their homesickness?"

Ye Tan suddenly said something that made Kong Yingda stunned. This was impossible to solve, so he could only listen honestly. Sometimes, some unlucky things were something that required some people to bear. As for the result, I don’t know.

"Master Kong, you also recognize it. Their efforts are worth it, right?"

"Yes, their love of leaving home was worth it for the long-term peace and stability of my Tang Dynasty."

Master Kong's idea was still led away by Ye Tan. Sometimes, are some things really that difficult?

No, some things are very simple.

"Then why sacrifice their happiness?"

Ye Tan’s words are actually unreasonable, because this is something that has always been needed in the past. Is it said that everyone is in trouble?

Looking at Kong Yingda without saying anything, Ye Tan continued, "Can I think so, Master Kong? In fact, their sacrifice is necessary and is a reason for our Tang Dynasty to stabilize. Moreover, their parents and children can also enjoy a lot of happiness in addition to the joy of reunion. Is that true?"

Ye Tan's words are not difficult to understand, but they are enough to tell you very simply that sometimes, you support them so much.

"You are right. There are always people who need to sacrifice a little and exchange the happiness of hundreds of thousands of people for the happiness of tens of millions of people. This is a must-do, and it has been done by all dynasties."

Kong Yingda actually found that this had nothing to do with other things, it was just a word, exchange.

Sometimes, we have nothing to do. For example, if someone has an injured leg, if you amputate, you can survive. If you don’t have an amputation, you have to die. I believe many people will choose well.
