During the Spring and Autumn Period, Yu Guojun was a man who loved to take advantage of petty gains, and suffered a great loss for it. At that time, Jin Xiangong of the State of Jin coveted the State of Guo for a long time and always wanted to replace it. However, the fruit is a little far from it and has nothing to do with it. After thinking about it, he found an imaginary reason: why do you always run amok on my border? It's so disturbing that my people can't live a good life. I must attack you and give my people a statement. As a result, war is imminent.
But Jin Xiangong is not stupid. There is still a gap between him and other countries. If you want to pass through the territory of Yuguo, you must get someone else's pass. Soon, the counselor gave him an idea: the monarch of Yuzhou likes jewelry and BMW best, as long as he gives more gifts, there is nothing different.
You laugh at others too much, and others laugh at you.
In the late Qing dynasty, almost all literati suffered, and it was common that there was no place to display their talents. But even so, some people try their best to buy officials. At that time, there was a scribe named Li Ciming with some ink in his stomach. He was very clever since he was a child, and when he grew up, he was dubbed "the more genius".
But it is such a gifted scholar that he failed in Sun Shan's exam for eleven times. It's really bitter tears. However, Li Ciming refused to admit defeat and still wanted to be an official.
In fact, this kind of thing can be seen everywhere in history, even in daily life. Many people are like this, and their ideas are extremely beautiful, but the reality is often the other way around. This also tells us the simplest truth: a thing often has good and bad. If you think it's a big bargain, the hole dug by the "loss" is at your feet. Doing things for others is still down-to-earth, and it is most important to actively adjust your self-mentality. Always thinking about taking advantage, or even losing the country, is there a greater loss than this? Why come?
