There are so many miserable people in the world. Xu was studied as an undead creature, but it was not that miserable. After all, he finally counterattacked and became the leader of the Heavenly Dao Sect. Many people have been miserable all their lives and have no chance to counterattack.
There was a person who was a child prodigy when he was young. He took the imperial examination at a very young age and became a boy student. However, he failed to pass the examination for more than ten years. Not only did he fail to pass the examination, he also spent money on impersonating his nationality and was even blackmailed.
When the family fortune is emptied, the person who has faked his nationality will be brought to the Yamen and be expelled from his position.
It was so frustrating that in the end, the local officials discovered that this person had some talents and helped him settle the lawsuit. Finally, he turned this person into his staff. Many people ended up here and could live a stable life as a staff.
But this man continued to take the imperial examinations while working as a staff member. He was regarded as a scholar at the age of 27 and his job was stable. However, he still had to take the exams and continued to study while working. Finally, at the age of 41
He passed the exam and then started to set up textile factories. Due to foreign wars, foreign textiles were given priority in the supply war. China achieved a golden decade of development and became a representative of "industry to save the country". He opened factories and schools and contributed to the national textile industry.
Lay the foundation.
Then because of the end of the war, foreign textiles returned to the market again, and domestic products could not resist. Finally, he died of illness at the age of seventy.
During the period of industrial salvation, he experienced the Qing Dynasty and the Beiyang government. He was Zhang Jian, the man who drafted the "Edict on the Abdication of the Qing Emperor".
Life can be said to be full of ups and downs. Most people have probably given up when they are blackmailed. Or they may have given up on continuing to work hard after their jobs have stabilized and will no longer study for the imperial examination. By the time they pass the exam to become a scholar, most people will probably feel
That’s okay, after all, we are almost thirty, and life is like this.
However, Zhang Jian did not get the first prize until he was 41 years old. With the first prize, many people probably thought it was enough. But Zhang Jian started to set up a textile factory. The process was not smooth sailing. At that time, he was short of 250,000 taels of silver and the land was ready.
The machine is ready, but the start-up capital is lacking, but the shareholders no longer want to contribute money, and the country has already produced the machine, but it is still shuddering and unable to come down.
In the end, I went to the capital to beg my grandfather and grandma to find all the 250,000 taels of silver.
The factory was opened, but the results were actually not good, because foreign textiles were of high quality and low price, and the domestic market at that time was just a dumping ground for textiles from island countries. Most people would definitely give up again, but Zhang Jian did not. He was also lucky, and soon Japan and Russia
When the war started, textiles from the island country were given priority to the army, and Zhang Jian's factory was opened until it became profitable.
When he had money, he did not spend it arbitrarily. Instead, he opened more factories and invested in education. Industry and education went hand in hand.
Then the foreign war ended, and the island nation's textiles returned strongly. The textile factory's income continued to decrease, and finally suffered losses, and Zhang Jian's life also came to an end.
As an ordinary person, Zhang Jian's family had only a small amount of assets at most. Three generations of his family were civilians. He could take the imperial examination, but he had to live in someone else's house. After ten years of taking the exam, he had no results. He was also blackmailed and sued. The family was almost
Bankruptcy. But he did not give up and continued to take exams. He did not pass the exam until he was 41 years old. Then he started to set up a factory and tried his luck to make money. After he became rich, he did not make a fortune and run away, but started a school.
.In the end, the textile mills continued to decline, and he had no way to make a comeback.
Many successful people have such ups and downs. No one can foresee their own success. They can only endure and do their own thing well. If they are lucky, they can soar into the sky.
If you are unlucky, then if you finish your life in a down-to-earth manner and do your own thing well, it will be considered a life worth living. If Zhang Jian had not won the first prize in the exam and had not started an industry, he could still have become a well-known staff member. In his thirties, When he was 20 years old, Zhang Zhidong, Weng Tonghe, and Yuan Shikai all knew him, and his ability to do things was impeccable.
Xu's life was studied, studied, and then slowly controlled the Heavenly Daoists, and finally became their leader.
The success of successful people is to do their own things well and be needed by everyone, so that they can ride on the wind. Only by being needed by others can they control the people of heaven.
Then there is the question of what to do after success. Should we continue to do what everyone needs, or should we seek profit for ourselves?
Zhang Jian obviously chose the former, while Xu chose the latter.
Success is not under your control. All you can do is do your job well. Being needed by others is the secret to success.
Confucius was a lost dog in the Spring and Autumn Period, but when the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six kingdoms, Fusu told Qin Shihuang that everyone should read Confucius, or we should continue to enfeoff.
Of course Qin Shihuang would not agree. He implemented a system of prefectures and counties, so he kicked Fusu out of Xianyang. At this time, Confucius's idea of restoring Zhou rites became the theoretical support of nobles everywhere. It was not until Dong Zhongshu that Confucianism came out In line with the idea of prefecture and county system.
From being rejected to being accepted, Confucius changed with the changes of the times. Confucius himself could not control it. All he could do was preach self-restraint and return to etiquette, and observe good etiquette. Success or failure could only depend on destiny.
The same goes for Zhang Jian, do your job well and make yourself needed by everyone. If it weren't for the Russo-Japanese War, there wouldn't be a golden decade, and he wouldn't be able to make money. Thank God for not losing money.
It can be said that the path taken by Xu is also necessary for success. He is an undead creature, so the way to be needed is to be dissected and have blood transfusions. Anyway, he will not die. In the end, he endured and succeeded.
So the next step is how to choose after success. After success, should you continue to serve everyone or serve yourself?
Obviously Xu wants to serve himself. In his opinion, his own experience is not the road to success, but the ugliness of human nature. If he launches a chicken soup for successful learning, many people will definitely like it. Let’s just say that before success, he was How I was dissected by tricks, how I persevered, and finally how I succeeded through my own hard work.
Emphasizing the importance of your own efforts and not telling others about the current situation and luck is what the success masters like to do the most.
"There are very few people who continue to serve everyone after success, not to mention that Xu didn't want to serve everyone from the beginning. He was completely forced." Dulan said that Xu was forced to contribute instead of actively contributing. He didn't want to be a successful person. .
But in life, one either actively contributes or passively contributes. It is difficult to say that one does not get a dime.
The Zhu Yang School said: "Plucking a hair to benefit the world is nothing to do. But sometimes you really can't make the decision yourself. If someone in society really plucks a hair to benefit the world, if he doesn't pull it out, then some people will
Help him pull it out.
Some people must say that this is immoral, but morality itself is a compromise made by human beings in order to safeguard interests. Morality is mutual. It’s not that I am immoral and you are moral. Not taking a dime is immoral in itself, because people eat, dress, and
Traveling and seeing a doctor require assistance from others, and you cannot do it alone.
He has already plucked other people's hair, so others can naturally pluck his hair.
Of course, Xu Xu said that his power came entirely from dragon veins and was entirely his own talent. Why should he share it with others? God gave it to him, but he didn't say he would share it.
God did not say that it would only be given to Xu. Perhaps God meant to put it on Xu first, and then everyone would take it together.
God can't speak, so why don't you just say whatever you want to explain?
The best way is to share it with everyone, so that everyone needs the common man, and the common man will no longer be a common man, but become a successful person.
Of course, there is also a question of suspicion here, that is, why do you believe that after you share your interests, everyone will defend you? If you can only bring this benefit yourself, then what else can you do besides defending yourself? Xu is satisfied with this
Condition, no one can help people live longer except him, so he must defend him.
Unlike some people whose interests are not generated by them, so they dare not share them with others, because if they are divided, they may be abandoned. The interests are that everyone's production is concentrated in their hands, so they dare not share them. After they are divided, they will have no value.
