Use "hypocrisy" in the right place
In Jorge Posada's philosophy of life, there is no good or evil, only interest. Therefore, when "kindness" is in line with the maximization of their own interests, black people certainly don't mind "kindness". However, the definition of kindness is often to help others because of sympathy and pity for the unfortunate. Kindness in most cases is to harm one's own interests and let others gain benefits. Therefore, people who take theft as their philosophy of life should not have true kindness. People often call it "hypocrisy" to actually strive for their own interests under the cover of goodwill. Many famous figures in history are experts in hypocrisy.
For example, Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu, which founded the Song Dynasty for more than 300 years, is one of the best. Zhao Kuangyin, as a general, seized the regime of the Later Zhou Dynasty through "peaceful evolution" and became emperor almost without bloodshed. This is extremely rare in the history of China.
In 959 (six years after Zhou Xiande), Chai Rong died of illness, and Emperor Gong, who succeeded to the throne, was only seven years old. At that time, the political situation was very unstable. In 960 (the spring of the seventh year of Xiande in the later Zhou Dynasty), the Northern Han Dynasty colluded with Qidan and invaded the latter Zhou Dynasty together. Empress fu, who was in power at that time, was a woman with no opinion. After hearing about this, she was at a loss and finally had to condescend to ask the Prime Minister for help, losing her royal dignity. Fan Ju believes that only North Korea's General Zhao Kuangyin can save this crisis. Unexpectedly, when the country was in danger, Zhao Kuangyin shirked that there were too few soldiers to fight. Fan Ju had to hand over the supreme military power to Zhao Kuangyin, so that he could mobilize the military power of the whole country, and Zhao Kuangyin was brought back to life. A few days later, Zhao Kuangyin set out with a great army and camped in Chen Qiaoyi at night.
At this time, Miao Xun, who knows astronomical astrology, took the doorman Chu Zhaofu to guide him to watch the astronomical phenomena at this time: I saw another sun under the sun in the sky, and a black light hovered back and forth between the two suns for a long time, which made the whole army dumbfounded. Just then, there were rumors that Han Tong had controlled the arrears of military pay, so General Zhao Pu and people met overnight to discuss the matter. Before dawn, all the sergeants gathered at the post gate, clamoring for Zhao Kuangyin to be emperor. Someone came out to stop it, but the soldiers ignored it and just kept making noise. At dawn, the soldiers gradually approached Zhao Kuangyin's bedroom account, and Zhao Kuangyin's younger brother Zhao Kuangyi walked into the account and told the story of the mutiny. Zhao Kuangyin, who just woke up from sleep, got up and paid the bill. By this time, the soldiers had lined up neatly and stood in front of the tent and said, "The army has no owner and is willing to give the tally to the emperor."
Before Zhao Kuangyin could speak, someone dressed him in a yellow robe, so the soldiers bowed down together, shouted "Long live" and helped him into the saddle. Pretending to be helpless, Zhao Kuangyin gripped the reins and said to all the soldiers, "I have orders. Can you listen? " All the soldiers knelt down and answered, "You must do as you are told." Zhao Kuangyin said impassioned: "Empress Dowager, my Lord, I serve them with the highest courtesy. Don't be surprised that something has gone wrong;" I and the ministers in Beijing are officials at the same time, so you must not oppress and humiliate them; You are not allowed to rob and harass the treasury and scholars' houses. Those who obey orders are rewarded handsomely, while those who disobey orders are guilty of their wives and will never be forgiven. Can you hear me clearly? Can you abide by it? Hearing this, all the soldiers thought that Zhao Kuangyin was a wise man, who knew the important principle well. Zhao Kuangyin and rectify the army, serious military discipline, began to shift direction, return to Beijing. The deputy commander had intended to organize an army to resist, but was killed by the coup general Wang at home. Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne smoothly.
At that time, although Zhao Kuangyin held military power, not everyone held his power to usurp the throne. Therefore, Zhao Kuangyin specially ordered the protection of the empress dowager and the emperor, and did not harm the royal family. He also made it clear that the original officials would not be deposed and soldiers would not be bullied, so he won the support of most officials and people. Zhao Kuangyin's posturing statement made him succeed in usurping the throne with little resistance. Zhao Kuangyin's brilliant means of usurping power has to be admired. This not only benefited from his successful use of political forms at that time and his mastery of military power in the world, but also benefited from his proper "hypocrisy" performance, which also contributed a lot to his successful seizure of political power.
"Hypocrisy" is a dirty trick, which can not only bring benefits to oneself, but also win a good reputation. But it is not easy to make good use of "hypocrisy". Without it, it may be useless and it is impossible to hide its real purpose. And if there are too many, it is easy to expose the stuffing and let people see through it, and the desired effect cannot be achieved. Only when "hypocrisy" is used properly can people not easily perceive the intention behind it. Even if others know it, they have to bow to you, so as to grasp the real meaning.
Do what you like with the intention of capturing it.
Everyone who lives in society will inevitably associate with others and of course ask others for help. At this time, it is often necessary to condescend, treat guests and give gifts, in order to achieve the goal. However, in dealing with people, especially in the process of asking for help, there is a premise, that is, to vote for "temper", and the key lies in whether you can vote.
In the process of sales promotion, how to impress customers is an art. When you understand the tricks of doing what you like, it is equivalent to mastering the art of sales. At this time, success will be closer and closer. In this way, a salesman of Fidel electric company reached a big deal and successfully completed the task of promoting electricity use.
One day, a salesman of Fidel Electric Company came to the door of a seemingly wealthy family. The old lady Bronken Brad, the head of the household, only opened the door a little. When she learned that the bearer was a salesman selling electricity, she closed the door mercilessly. The salesman got up the courage to knock on the door for a long time, and then the door barely opened a little. Before he could speak, the old lady had rudely opened it. The salesman had to leave temporarily. However, he was not discouraged. After some investigation, he came to you again. When the old lady opened the door a crack, he quickly said loudly, "Mrs. Brad, I'm sorry to bother you. I didn't come to ask you to buy electricity. I just wanted to buy some eggs from you." After listening to his words, the old lady softened a lot and finally opened the door. The old lady asked him gently, "How do you know my eggs are good?" The salesman was secretly happy. Knowing that his calculation was effective at first, he said more sincerely and respectfully, "I heard from people nearby that only your eggs are the best." Madam, I want to make a cake for my wife today. Today is her birthday. But you know, you must have good eggs to make cakes, so I must come to you and ask you to sell me some. Hearing this, Grandmother Jia beamed with joy and hurriedly pulled him in. "。
After the salesman entered the room, he glanced around quickly and found that there was a whole set of cheese equipment in the room. He concluded that the male owner kept cows, so he continued, "Madam, I believe that you must sell more eggs than your husband sells milk." This time, the salesman spoke Mrs. Brad's mind. He and her husband always disagree with each other, but no one ever admits that she is better than her husband in front of her. Therefore, Mrs. Brad immediately regarded the salesman as a confidant and took the trouble to show him around the chicken coop. The salesman knew that his plan was about to succeed. However, he still lost no time in making various compliments during his visit. In the praise, the old lady and the salesman talked more and more speculatively and talked more and more deeply. The old lady told him about raising chickens, and he listened carefully. The old lady also asked him about the benefits of using electricity. They became very close and talked about almost everything. In order to raise chickens, the salesman explained the function of electricity to the old lady in detail. Two weeks later, the salesman's company received an application for electricity from the old lady. To the salesman's delight, before long, a steady stream of households applied for electricity in the old lady's house. It turned out that the old lady became the voluntary assistant of the salesman.
I don't teach you cunning, I don't cheat you, I need a little brain, I need to mobilize my mental function. Being interested in your own love is the most effective way to communicate. As long as you find each other's hobbies and make targeted use of them, you can often get some benefits. Doing what you like is an art, a wisdom and a way of communication. Is to seek the common interests of different people, just like putting two good horses galloping in the wilderness into the same runway, so that they can know each other and run together. Doing what you like is to mobilize the advantages of your knowledge and talents, send your sincere signal to the people you ask for help, make others willing to help you, and finally achieve the results you want.
Give three points if it is justified.
As the saying goes: "It is reasonable to travel around the world, but it is difficult to move without reason." It can be seen that everyone should be reasonable, and everyone knows that it is difficult to get everyone's approval without reason, and they will feel wronged. However, even if you manage it, don't overdo it, and leave a way out for people. In the same way, when dealing with people and things, don't be unreasonable, but let people be reasonable. This is the truth of the sentence "Don't be too unique".
One thing that Hu Xueyan admires as a man is that even if he is fully capable of killing his opponent and has every reason to do so, he will never make a difference.
On one occasion, Hu Xueyan went to Suzhou on business, and temporarily went to Yong Bank to exchange 20 ingots for urgent use. Who knows that this bank not only refused to exchange it for him in time, but also slandered Hu Xueyan Fukang Bank for no reason, which made him very angry. Hu Xueyan suffered indignities in this bank for no reason, so he should be severely punished. In addition, he is fully capable of completely destroying "permanent prosperity." "Forever Prosperous" banks have no basis, and the operation of "Forever Prosperous" is also problematic. They are greedy for profits. Although they only have the capital of 100,000 taels of silver, they have released 200,000 silver tickets, which is already in jeopardy. Hu Xueyan originally wanted to borrow the fact that there was public money exchange between Zhejiang and Jiangsu. Under his own influence, he combined the public funds shared by the Maritime Safety Administration, the military supplies of Huzhou joint defense and the wages reimbursed by Zhejiang to Jiangsu, and replaced them with "Yongchang" silver tickets, which were directly handed over to Jiangsu Fanhe Liangtai, and the government directly sought "Yongchang" to cash them. In this way, "Yongchang" is not only gone, but also lost. Even if it is knocked to the ground, probably not many people will sympathize with it, and may even praise it for cleaning up a black sheep for the bank. But even so, Hu Xueyan finally let go of its "eternal prosperity". It serves to show that he has been adhering to the phrase "We will meet each other one day, leaving room for it, not being too unique", which is not just lip service, but actually done, which is actually a life criterion of Hu Xueyan.
Among them, there is naturally Hu Xueyan's consideration of self-interest. As the saying goes, "there will always be opportunities to meet each other in the future." There's room for things to be done, and there's room for meeting again. In fact, for businessmen, this consideration is also very necessary.
As the saying goes, "Give people a way to live, and give yourself a way to make money." Businessmen should look further. One day, a passenger saw a well-dressed businessman yelling at a porter at the airport. Later, he found that the worker was only a little slow in checking the luggage. The businessman kept cursing. Although the workers repeatedly apologized, he didn't mean to stop. Businessmen curse fiercely, but porters seem to care less. After the businessman left, the passengers praised the porter for his self-restraint. "Oh, really?" The porter smiled and said, "Do you understand that guy is going to California, but is his luggage going to new york?" It can be seen that it is not good for you to be reasonable and tide wait for no man.
Unlike some businessmen who like to curse others, Charles Scoble, a famous American steel king, is a person who likes to solve problems with a smile. During a lunch break, he passed by his steel plant and saw several workers smoking. There was a big sign above them-"No Smoking". Scobie thought for a moment, smiled and walked up to the smokers, handed them some cigars in a friendly way and said humorously, "Ladies and gentlemen, I would be very grateful if you could smoke these cigars outside." Suddenly, several smoking workers immediately put out the fireworks, and they had a good impression and respect for Scober. Because Scobie didn't scold them directly, but made his subordinates willing to accept their criticism in a humane way. In this short story, the steel king is very reasonable, but he didn't bully others, didn't use rough and simple methods, but controlled others. As a result, his workers not only corrected their mistakes, but also thanked him.
If you can't do things well, it is the easiest to offend people and bring disaster. People who have something to do with you may be against you as long as they are angry with you. Reasoning will win people's gratitude and respect. People often fall into the self-consciousness of "reason and tide wait for no man, unreasonably stirring up three points", but how can the reason in the world make you take everything for yourself? Therefore, you should forgive others and forgive others, and give three points when you are reasonable, which not only leaves face for others, but also leaves a way out for yourself.
Learn to love your enemies.
Most people may not understand the phrase "love" your enemy. It is difficult to "fall in love" with the enemy, because most people will have the impulse to destroy the enemy quickly when they see it. Even if they can't destroy each other for the time being, at least they should keep a cold attitude, or seize the opportunity to ridicule and slander each other. How can they fall in love? It can be seen how difficult it is to "fall in love" with the enemy. It is precisely because of difficulties that people's minds are smart and big, that is to say, people who can "fall in love" with their enemies often achieve more than those who can only slander them. Of course, "falling in love" here refers to a strategy that should be adopted when your enemy is in a strong position. When you take the initiative to be nice, you confuse the other person, make them confused about your attitude towards him, and even mistakenly think that you have turned your enemy into a friend. At this time, you can wait for the opportunity.
In A.D. 166 1 year, the emperor shunzhi died of illness in the Qing Dynasty. At the age of 8, Michelle Ye acceded to the throne, changed his country name to Kangxi, and appointed Sony, Suksaha, Qi Ba Bilong and Ao Bai as ministers of auxiliary government, who took charge of the overall situation before the emperor took power. Kangxi has been raised by his grandmother sourdrang dowager, and sourdrang dowager is very smart and has great political foresight. Under her education, Kangxi had a smart and enterprising spirit when he was a teenager, and he practiced martial arts and was good at hard training. However, according to the regulations of the Qing dynasty, harem women were not allowed to participate in state affairs, so state affairs were always in the hands of four assistant ministers.
Although these four ministers in charge of life preside over state affairs, there are also contradictions among them. Sony, Buron and Ao Bai are two yellow flags, while Suksaha is a white flag. In the eyes of Ao Bai and Zieba Bilon, Suksaha is an alien, so they are embarrassed with him everywhere. Although Sony is smart and respected, it is old and sick, and often acquiesces in Ao Bai's behavior. Seven or eight nose dragons have no definite view in military affairs, and always go along with Ao Bai, even giving up their position to Ao Bai. Although Ao Bai ranked last among the four ministers, he was a veteran of the three dynasties, with outstanding military exploits, often taking credit, and courtiers were also afraid of him. Only Suksaha is very dissatisfied with Ao Bai's arrogance and often has disputes with Ao Bai. So the two became enemies and were at odds. In A.D. 1666, Ao Bai picked a fight and put three ministers who supported Suksaha, Su Nanhai, Zhu Changzuo and Wang Deng in prison. Without even waiting for Kangxi's consent, he issued a fake imperial edict to kill people.
After Sony died, Ao Bai was determined to get rid of Suksaha, the only stumbling block. 1July 667, Kangxi was in office. Suksaha automatically asked the dismissed official to guard the mausoleum for the first emperor, saying that only in this way can he save his life. He said so, just to spit out depressed by Ao Bai. Turtle visited him and expressed his dissatisfaction with himself so blatantly that he immediately moved to kill his heart. He seized this opportunity and arrested Suksaha, his brother, son and nephew in the name of the emperor. Then Ao Bai instigated his cronies to fabricate charges and asked the emperor to execute Suksaha this year. Kangxi knew that Ao Bai was retaliating, but forced by Ao Bai's military strength and numerous henchmen, although he hated Ao Bai, he pretended to respect Ao Bai very much and ordered Suksaha to be hanged on a monkey.
At this point, although Kangxi was in power, Ao Bai still adopted a cronyism, cultivated his wings, and continued to dominate the state affairs, not even treating him as an emperor. Political affairs are often decided by Ao Bai at home and then implemented. Even things decided by Kangxi can be overturned and reconsidered. In front of Kangxi, Quan Bai often loudly questioned and scolded ministers, and was arrogant. Kangxi deeply felt that as long as Ao Bai was still on his head, he was not a real emperor, so he made up his mind to destroy the "Ao Bai Group". But this time, Ao Bai must not be provoked publicly, so Kangxi quietly showed more respect to Ao Bai and gave Ao Bai a knighthood, which was only secretly arranged in private. Ao Bai was once ill, and Kangxi went to see him personally. When Kangxi walked to the front of the hospital bed, the guards found that Ao Bai looked abnormal, immediately stepped forward and dug out a knife from under Ao Bai's sleeping mat. This is the ironclad proof of the intention to kill the king, but Kangxi quietly smiled and said, "It is the custom of Manchu to keep knives, so it is no wonder that there is little protection." This matter has not been investigated.
In order to capture Ao Bai alive, Kangxi selected a group of strong little guards to form a team and practiced wrestling every day. Ao Bai and Kangxi didn't let these people avoid them, but they also showed the appearance of a plaything, so Ao Bai thought that the emperor was young and fond of playing and didn't like management, so he was not alert.
/kloc-one day in 0/669, Kangxi summoned Ao Bai alone. As soon as Ao Bai came in, Kangxi commanded, the little guards who had already ambushed jumped out. After a desperate struggle, they finally took Ao Bai down and put him in prison. Kangxi summoned ministers to examine and approve Ao Bai's 30 major crimes and punish them according to law. Ao Bai pleaded for freedom from death, pointing to the scar he left to save Emperor Taizong, and asked the emperor to show mercy outside the law. So Kangxi commuted Ao Bai's sentence to life imprisonment and eliminated Ao Bai's henchmen. Soon, Ao Bai also died in prison.
If Kangxi couldn't stand Ao Bai's arrogant attitude at the beginning of leading the government, he would not win back the state affairs, but would arouse Ao Bai's preparedness, vigilance and even rebellion. But Kangxi wisely "fell in love" with Ao Bai, and respected him everywhere, showing his affection. In this way, Ao Bai's defensive mentality was successfully eliminated and the political power was regained. Therefore, when you can't compare with the strength of the enemy, you might as well take the initiative to "fall in love" with the enemy, so that you can "control people without being controlled", confuse each other and win the final victory.
"Generosity" is appropriate, and the rewards are endless.
People who live according to the philosophy of Jorge Posada will naturally not give away their things casually, but many successful people also benefit from generosity. Being a black man and being "generous" can get endless rewards. In this regard, Lv Buwei, who is good at generous investment, is an expert.
Lv Buwei is a big businessman in Yangzhai, running around, doing business and accumulating a lot of money. In the forty-second year of Qin Zhao (265 BC), Ann Guo Jun, the second son of Wang Zhao, became a prince. A Guo Jun has more than twenty sons. Zi Chu ranks in the middle and is not favored. Therefore, he was sent to Zhao as a hostage of Qin. Qin attacked Zhao many times, so Zhao was not very polite to Chu. Therefore, Zi Chu's life in Zhao was very difficult, and he was very dissatisfied.
One year, Lv Buwei went to Handan to do business, met Zi Chu and thought, "This man can be used to do big business." So he went to see Zi Chu and said, "The king of Qin is old, and a Guo Jun has become a prince. I heard that Ann Guo Jun likes Mrs. Huayang. Although Mrs. Huayang has no son, she can establish an heir to Guo Jun. Now a * * *, you have two dozen brothers, and you are in the middle, which is why you have been detained in Zhao for a long time. If the king dies and a Guo Junren inherits the throne, then you can't expect to compete with your brothers who are with your father in the morning and evening for the position of prince. "
Zi Chu said, "What should I do?" Lv Buwei said, "You are short of money and you are in a foreign country. You don't have gold, silver and jewels to honor your father, and you don't have the ability to make friends. Although I am not very rich in Lv Buwei, I am willing to take two thousand daughters to Qin for you and persuade An Guo Jun and Mrs. Huayang to let you be the heir. " Hearing this, Zi Chu quickly kowtowed and said, "If your plan can really come true, I would like to enjoy Qin with you."
So I took out five hundred and twenty pieces of gold to pay for living in Zhao and making friends. At the same time, he took out five hundred and twenty gold to buy rare treasures and brought them to Qin. He dedicated everything he brought to Mrs. Huayang in the name of Zi Chu, and claimed how virtuous and intelligent Zi Chu was, how he made friends with all the princes and guests in the world, and how he missed his father and wife day and night and cried.
Mrs. Huayang was very happy when she heard about it. Lv Buwei tried to persuade Mrs Huayang to admit that Zi Chu was her son. Mrs. Huayang thought it was reasonable, so she took the opportunity to gently talk to the prince about being taken hostage in Zhao, saying that he was very kind and smart, and everyone who came and went praised him. Then Mrs. Huayang said with tears, "Although I was lucky enough to be loved by the prince, it's a pity that I couldn't give birth to a son for you. I hope to recognize Zi Chu as my son and make him my heir, so that I can have a dependence all my life. "
Ann Guo Jun agreed to her request, so she and Mrs Huayang carved a jade symbol as a voucher, and agreed to make Zi Chu as the heir. Ann Guo Jun and Mrs Huayang sent a lot of property to Zi Chu, and invited Lv Buwei as Zi Chu's teacher, so Zi Chu is very famous among the vassal states.
Lv Buwei has a very beautiful concubine who can sing and dance, and she is pregnant with Lv Buwei's child. Once, Zi Chu and Lv Buwei met this woman while drinking together, and they liked her very much. So when I got up to propose a toast to Lv Buwei, I begged him to give me this beauty. He was very angry at that time, but considering that the concubine was pregnant with her own child, he wanted to take this opportunity to let his descendants become the masters of Qin one day, so he gave her to him. The princess hid the fact that she was pregnant from Zi Chu. Ten months later, she gave birth to Ying Zheng.
Qin Zhao Wu Wang ten years (257 BC), the state of Qin besieged Handan, and the situation was critical. Therefore, Zhao wants to kill. Lv Buwei bribed his beadle with 620 gold to escape, fled to his barracks, and then went back and forth to Qin.
Soon, the state of Qin died, and so did those who had been in power for one year. Posthumous title is the filial piety king. Prince Zi Chu succeeded to the throne, that is, King Zhuang Xiang. In the first year of King Zhuangxiang (249 BC), Lv Buwei was appointed as the Prime Minister, and Wen Xin Hou was given the right to enjoy 100,000 fiefs in Luoyang, Henan. King Xiang of Zhuang died after three years in office, and Prince Zheng succeeded to the throne and was honored as the Prime Minister, known as "Guan Zhong". At this point, Lv Buwei's power reached its peak.
Through his generosity, Lv Buwei not only made him rich, but also made his son a king of Qin and a "Guanzhong", which was really worthwhile! It can be seen that with wisdom and appropriate "generosity" at the right time, the return you can get must be huge.
If you suffer in the light, you will be blessed in the dark.
As the saying goes, "losing is a blessing." Lala believes that the so-called loss here is to consciously take the initiative to eat "loss", and its behavior is of course purposeful. Sometimes, on the surface, you seem to have done a very bad thing, and what you get behind it is really great benefit.
At the beginning of Liu Bang's war, he put Xiao He in charge of Guanzhong affairs and fought outside by himself. When Liu Bang confronted Xiang Yu, he sent condolences to Xiao He again and again. Xiao He felt that Liu Bang was doubting himself, or he would have been killed. After consulting with the counselor, he sent all his younger brothers and relatives who could be soldiers to Liu Bang's army. In this way, although family and relatives don't understand, he knows that this "loss" must be eaten.
Sure enough, after Liu Bang defeated Xiang Yu and unified the world, no one thought that he would say Xiao He when commenting on who had the greatest credit with his ministers. I think that Xiao He, despite his merits, is only a civilian after all. How can he compare with those generals who fight to the death on the battlefield? Liu Bang said, "You all have to follow me by yourselves. Although you risk your life, you are only one person. But Xiao He sent his whole family to the army. He took the whole family to honor and disgrace Liu Bang with me! " So the ministers were speechless. Since then, Xiao He has received more attention and ranked as the prime minister.
Because of this wise move, Xiao He not only dispelled Liu Bang's doubts, but also laid a solid foundation for his future career.
Laroche believes that people who really know how to seek benefits in the life of the larded scholar are often not limited to temporary "losses" and "blessings". Only those who truly understand this truth can get the ultimate welfare.
In ancient times, there was a king who wanted to buy a swift horse. He sent people everywhere to look for it, but he couldn't find it for three years. A minister heard that there was a swift horse somewhere, so he made a wish to the king, saying that as long as he was given 200 gold, he promised to bring it back within three months. The king agreed to his request.
The minister continued to look for Maxima, but when he arrived, Maxima was dead, and its body had rotted, leaving only a horse bone. The minister thought, I have made a wish to the king. If I go back empty-handed, the king will definitely blame me, and if I don't make trouble, my life will be gone. What shall we do? After some hard thinking, the minister finally had an idea-he took out half of the gold he brought, that is, 500 taels of gold, and bought the bones of Maxima. At the end of the three-month period, the minister went to see the king with the horse bones he bought. Seeing that the minister bought horse bones instead of maxima, the king was furious: "I asked you to buy maxima, but you bought me these useless horse bones with 500 taels of gold." Don't you know that this is a crime of deceiving the monarch? "
The minister calmly replied, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Don't underestimate this horse bone, it will become your swift horse. "
Hearing this, the King of Qi was puzzled: "How can I say this? How can a useless horse bone become a live horse? " The minister said, "A dead swift horse is willing to pay 520 gold, let alone a live swift horse. I heard that your majesty is willing to pay 520 gold for the bones of a maxima, and everyone in the world will believe that you really cherish maxima, so you will soon deliver the live maxima to your door. "
The king felt that what the minister said was reasonable, so he buried the horse bone solemnly. This matter spread like wildfire. Sure enough, in less than a year, someone sent three swift horses to the king.
You can't have a swift horse for a thousand dollars. If you buy a horse bone with 500 taels of gold, three swift horses will come to buy it. The gains and losses are clear at a glance. The "loss" of the minister in the story naturally turned into a good thing. But not everyone can do such a "good thing", which requires the wisdom to know the world and the courage to bear hardships. Therefore, when doing things, don't just see a little profit in front of you and refuse to let go, let alone hold the idea of not losing money, but learn to seek hidden interests in the surface losses.
