Chapter 94
The meeting between Zhao Jiaren and the generals was temporarily over. The generals who had decided to leave or remain in the army surrounded and talked to Zhao Jiaren. Nearly half of the other generals who adopted the drag-on technique wanted to stay tentatively, but still chose to leave.
Zhao Jiaren can only ignore these guys for the time being. The doctors are a very materialistic subject, even in religious countries like Great America, the proportion of doctors who believe in God is the lowest in religious proportion. The Cross-Cultural Book says that God created humans according to his appearance, and the serious doctors really can't find any evidence.
After the scientific development entered the stage of genetic biology, the so-called secrets of the human body gradually came to a more scientific explanation. As long as there is relevant biological knowledge, it will basically agree that the human body is the result of pieces of various stages of evolution in the life bodies on Earth over billions of years.
For example, the eight-pack abs that are considered to be strong and magnificent, this tissue structure is actually a fish characteristic, while many other mammalian organisms have taken other evolutionary routes and have not inherited such tissue.
However, in such a materialistic field, psychology is generally considered to be more idealistic. Therefore, in psychology, it also has a distinction between materialism and idealism. For example, from the perspective of materialism, anger is based on the body. If humans only have a brain, it is impossible to produce any anger.
Zhao Jiaren himself believed that he was a materialist. He was not angry at this time, but was a little distracted. He hoped that these guys would never play with fire by themselves. Now that the army was a bit warlord-oriented, Zhao Jiaren did not mind using more intense means to solve the problem.
After arguing with the generals who made the decision, Zhao Jiaren went back to his residence. When he arrived at the door, the guards quickly came up to report: "Report to the official, Major Zhao Qian is waiting for you."
Zhao Jiaren went straight into the communication room and saw Zhao Qian lying on the table to write something. Seeing Zhao Jiaren coming, Zhao Qian said, "Dad, I have written a speech for grassroots commanders and soldiers. Please correct me."
The son was finally able to not be influenced by emotions, but to do the work within his ability at this time, which made Zhao Jiaren very happy. He returned to the main house of his residence, moved a chair to a bright place, and began to read the draft. After reading it, Zhao Jiaren didn't say anything for a moment until he heard Zhao Qian ask, "Are you outrageously wrong?"
Zhao Jiaren then said: "When teachers teach students, they should have a central idea when writing articles. That's because children have weak logical abilities, and the school does not want them to be completely framed by simple logic that lacks the foundation of reality at a young age."
Speaking of this, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but smile, "Of course, the school does not have the financial resources to give the children real logic from an early age. This is probably the fundamental reason."
Zhao Qian couldn't understand his father's wild idea, so he quickly asked: "Where is the logical problem of what I wrote?"
"The logic you wrote in the article is a bit religious. You say that as long as you follow the system, you will have a happy future. This is the way religion uses to fool the public, that is, you will respond to all your requests." Zhao Jiaren said while handing the speech to Zhao Qian.
Zhao Qian was stunned. He picked up the speech and read it again. A father pointed out the problem. Zhao Qian saw that this time they were real. His manuscript told the officers and soldiers that as long as they obey orders and obey commands, happiness after retirement would fall from the sky. Unexpectedly, he actually wrote such things, and Zhao Qian's face turned red.
However, Zhao Qian was not scared by this feeling. He blushed and continued to ask, "Is there a way to modify it?"
"To be honest, especially the truth that grassroots personnel can understand." Zhao Jiaren was quite satisfied with his son's performance. The inability to achieve his purpose is a very common thing for anyone. It is also common to run away when encountering problems. The ability and talent of real successful people may not be stronger than that of losers, but the real successful people can develop the motivation to overwhelm this kind of shame, anxiety, and retreat.
If you don't advance, you will retreat. When those more sensitive and succumb to the body retreat, those bodies are more likely to have the impulse to move forward, or if the brain circuit can form a concept, they will struggle to move forward. Between advance and retreat, you can see that the winner and lose.
Xunzi, the great Chinese simple materialist, the last master of the pre-Qin period, and the master of the great master, Xunzi, had a very exquisite description of this.
The accumulation of soil forms a mountain, wind and rain prospers; the accumulation of water forms abyss, and the dragons are born; the accumulation of goodness and virtue, and the gods are satisfied, and the holy heart is prepared. Therefore, without accumulating small steps, you cannot reach a thousand miles; without accumulating small flows, you cannot form a river and sea. A good horse cannot leap ten steps; a slow horse can steer and do not break. If you keep it, rotten wood will not break; if you keep it unwilling to let go, you can carve the metal and stone. The earthworm has no clutches and strong muscles and bones. You can eat the soil above and drink the yellow spring below. You can use one heart. Crabs kneel six times and two claws, but they cannot hold on to the hole of snakes and eels. If you are not able to hold on to the hole, you can use your heart to be restless.
"Zhao Qian, you who are engaged in water conservancy must be very clear. You know better than me what difficulties you have to face in farming. If it rains a lot, the crops will be bad. If it doesn't rain, the crops will be bad. Even if it rains a little, it's not too heavy, but if it is not the time, the crops will still be bad. Most soldiers will probably go to the farm after retirement, which has a great impact on them. The water conservancy major is valuable because of these uneven water and drought."
Zhao Qian asked, "But no one understands what I said. If I understand, I feel like I didn't say it after hearing it."
"Why do they think you're the same as you didn't say it?"
"Because it's useless to say it...so that's it." Zhao Qian felt that this logic seemed to match, "Is it because I didn't come up with a solution to the problem?"
"Religion can deceive people, just tell everyone that what you think is useless, and you won't understand after thinking about it. Then don't think about it. Follow me to pray to God and worship Buddha, and sincerity will make you feel good. Do you really think everyone is fool? There are probably two types of people who believe in God. The first is that they are really desperate, and the other is that their knowledge and abilities have reached the limit of their physical and mental endurance, so they gave up. To put it aside, I have tried my best to improve your stress resistance since I was a child, and I hope you can persist for a longer time and move forward a little bit more. Many times, the outcome depends on whether you persist for that little bit more. Although we don't know how long that little bit will last, as long as we follow the path of materialism and persist for a little bit more, the chance of success will be a little bit higher."
After Zhao Jiaren finished speaking, he looked at his son's expression and looked at Zhao Qian's thoughtful look, Zhao Jiaren couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Materialists need a healthy body and a healthy heart, or a nervous thinking system formed by acquired experience. What the acquired system requires is experience. After a lot of experience is settled, many things can be understood. This is also the annoying situation that materialists face when they want to educate.
When a person becomes a materialist, he understands it. If not, it is difficult to understand. Because human beings themselves are material beings, and a person relies on the body to perceive the world, the body in turn has to act and even dominate thinking. Zhao Jiaren has seen many addicts, and those who can see psychologists are not paupers. Paupers have no chance to understand and learn to build their own ideas. Those richer addicts, they use cocaine and other drugs, aim to suppress the pain felt by the body. But their logic is a fallacy in Zhao Jiaren's view. Wouldn't they be controlled by the body by using drugs to suppress the pain of the body?
Human beings have to find a way to coexist with the physical reaction. However, traditional psychology based on idealism has no more reasonable explanation. On the contrary, Xunzi, a materialist two thousand years ago, said that desires need to be "fostered". Zhao Jiaren read Xunzi's articles and respected materialists very much. Similarly, he also felt that this was very difficult, but very easy.
Zhao Qian did not have the knowledge of his father, so he naturally didn't know what kind of thinking was active behind his father's thoughtful look. He just felt a little confused. When his basic logic was overturned, all kinds of thoughts became turbulent, running around like a flood that opened the gate.
Finally, he chose to give up his ideas and asked his father, "Then what logic should I use to tell you."
The son gave up his own ideas. Zhao Jiaren felt that it might be an opportunity to teach something about him. He asked: "Let this go back first. I ask you now, can you still remember the modern nation-state theory I mentioned before?"
"Well... is it because the state regime has an obligation to the people?" Zhao Qian asked tentatively.
Zhao Jiaren's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that his son would really understand one of the core of the modern nation-state system. At least he had an impression. With expectations, Zhao Jiaren asked: "Why did you think of this?"
"Dad, the people cannot solve the problem by relying on their own strength, the strength of the whole family, or even the strength of a village and a village." Zhao Qian didn't think there was anything strange about this. There were hundreds or thousands of technicians and workers working hard on the water conservancy construction site. After several years of water conservancy, he knew this very well.
"Even with so many people in Jiangning, without reasonable organization and scientific and technological strength, there is no way to solve the water conservancy problem in the Qinhuai River Basin. At this time, the court must come forward. But why did the court come forward? Because you are the official family. I have been thinking about these things these days and found that you have been operating the country according to the modern nation-state. Why are you so diligent? It is not that you are playing palace tricks or the emperor's scheming. But you think you have an obligation to the country and the people, so you have to do it. The people don't know why, but they finally get benefits from those projects and policies, and of course they are willing to be loyal to the country. Even I even understand why you never forgive the barbarians. Modern nation-state, China is the essence of the Song Dynasty, you have an obligation to the Chinese nation, so based on this obligation, you have to eliminate the enemy of China. My mother said you have no personal enemies, and I understand why my mother said that."
"Haha! Haha!" Zhao Jiaren couldn't help laughing out loud. His mood was indescribable joy. Over the years, many people felt that Zhao Jiaren's method of educating the prince was too indulgent, so that Zhao Qian looked like an ordinary mortal. However, Zhao Jiaren didn't think so. Some people were indeed like that person, and they became a materialist at a young age. This depends on talent. Both the physical and acquired experience are indispensable.
But his son was originally a mortal, and it was wrong to force him to follow the path of genius. Someone once said that you should not show the biography of heroes and great men to children. That is to let kind and normal people learn from those abnormal people.
Now Zhao Qian, a normal person, finally understands this, because as long as they can let normal people follow the normal path, let them grow up in a family with normal emotions from a young age, teach them how to learn and see the problem from a materialistic perspective. They can't get an immediate effect. When they start working, they can see the world and experience difficulties through hard work, and in the end they will take the initiative or reluctantly move towards materialism.
Seeing that his efforts had achieved results at this time, Zhao Jiaren was extremely happy. But he couldn't help but think of his second son and daughter. The same educational method made Zhao Jiaren less satisfied. Of course, this may also be that when Zhao Qian was in his teens, Zhao Jiaren was still a person who struggled desperately in the struggle for saving the country and power. But before they could understand society, Zhao Jiaren was already an official.
The children of the official family are very different from the children of other people. Children of ordinary families become officials and You Yong’s decision-making power, not because they are themselves, so they naturally own them. The children of the official family naturally own all this. The human body is very honest. If anything they have, the body will accept the fact that "this is what I have" and then turn the facts into various non-brain memories.
What you have will not arouse the body's reaction. Only when you lose it will the body's pain be felt through various signals. Only then will the words "I don't cherish what I have, but I regret it when I lose it", and the words that arouse sad people's sighs and regrets.
But from the perspective of materialism, if everyone's body recognizes what they have at all times, it will destroy itself because it is overwhelmed.
What you have will not arouse the body's reaction. Only when you lose it will the body's pain be felt through various signals. Only then will the words "I don't cherish what I have, but I regret it when I lose it", and the words that arouse sad people's sighs and regrets.
