personal data

He is fond of learning and learning, and he is self reliant. If you live in seclusion and do not become an official, you will never know where you end up. The book of Jin, the biography of reclusion, says: "after Yuankang, the discipline was bad, and (Lu) praised the time when he was greedy and despicable. It was a hidden name, but Qian Shen was written to stab it." The present Qian Shen and Yan Kejun's Quan Jin Wen are made up of Jin Shu Lu Bao Zhuan, Yi Wen Lei Ju and Chu Xue Ji. Although this article is called "Lun", in fact, it still follows the style of Fu questioning. In the question and answer between Mr. Sikong and Mr. Qi Wu, the author talks about the wonderful use of money, but the words are humorous, ridicule, ridicule and scold. There are many wonderful points in the article, such as a paragraph of Childe Sikong's sneering at Mr. Qi Wu's ignorance of contingency, whose language is originally from classics, and the profoundness of the Scripture in a secular tone, which is ironic to the world. Another example is "the childe laughs with his legs", in which he discusses the value and function of money, which is particularly vivid and pungent: "it's a treasure of the world, and it's as close as brother. The word is" kongfang. ". If you lose it, you will be poor and weak; if you gain it, you will be prosperous. Flying without wings and walking without feet, you can understand Yan Yi's face and open a mouth that is hard to send. " It's all cynical, obviously. According to this biography, once this article was published, it was recited by those who suffered from pain and illness at that time.

Qian Theism

The body of money has the image of heaven and earth. It is square inside and round outside. Its accumulation is like a mountain, its flow is like a river. Sometimes, when there is movement, there is a festival between travel and storage, so that the market is easy and there is no loss. It is difficult to break the image of longevity, but not the image of Tao. Therefore, it can last for a long time and is a treasure of the world. Close as brother, the word said Kong Fang, lose it is poor and weak, get it is rich and prosperous. Flying without wings and walking without feet, you can understand Yan Yi's face and open a difficult mouth. Those with more money are in the front, while those with less money are in the back. In the former, he is the chief, in the latter, he is the servant. The leader is abundant and abundant, and the servant is exhausted and insufficient. The book of songs says, "I'm sorry for the rich, but I'm alone. 」

Money is the source of words. It goes far and deep. Jingyi clothes, tired of talking, tired of hearing and talking, to sleep, see my brother, all surprised. With the help of money, good fortune is not bad. Why read books and become rich! In the past, Duke Lu was very happy in the empty version, and Han zuke was good at winning two. Wenjun took off his cloth and was embroidered. It was just like taking off his calf's nose by riding on a high cover. The official's respect and fame were all due to money. Empty version to virtual, and the situation has real; win two although less, so close. From this point of view, it is called divine things. No virtue and respect, no power and heat, row the golden gate and into the purple. Danger can make you safe, death can make you live, high can make you cheap, life can make you kill. It is because of this that anger is not enough for money, quiet stagnation is not enough for money, resentment is not enough for money, and questions are not enough for money.

Luozhong Zhuyi, the person on the way, loves my brother, I have already. Hold my hand, hold me all the time, regardless of the good or bad, regardless of age, guests are always like the city. As the saying goes, "money without ears can make ghosts.". All people today are just money. Therefore, if the army has no money, the scholars will not come; if the army has no reward, the scholars will not go. It's better to go back to the fields than to be an official. Although there are middle-class people without brothers, it is the same as flying without wings and walking without feet.

Money God in Lubao's eyes

After Zou Quanrong resumed college entrance examination in 1977, the first thing I did in the city was to buy books in Xinhua bookstore. The most proud thing is that I bought an anthology of literary works as a textbook for self-study of ancient Chinese prose. After reading it, I really benefited a lot. Some of them are still fresh in memory. For example, Lu Bao, a scholar of Jin Dynasty, wrote "Qian He", which is even more unforgettable.

The "God of money" described by Lu Bao is visible and influential in our real life, and still controls the human state. Lu Bao strongly advocated the view that "money can communicate with God", counted how money can do everything, vividly described the phenomenon of flattering power and worshiping money in society, and fully exposed the ugly phenomenon of money worship.

Lu Bao exposed the particularity of money in the field of circulation: "flying without wings, walking without feet", vividly depicted the image of money circulation. Lu Bao also pointedly pointed out the social function of money: "if you lose it, you will be poor and weak; if you gain it, you will be rich and strong." Lu Bao also criticized some secular ugly phenomena: "those with more money are in the front, while those with less money are in the back." Lu Bao also described the symmetrical relationship between possession of money and social status: "in the former, he is the ruler, while in the latter, he is the servant. The chief is abundant and abundant, and the servants are exhausted and insufficient. "

No matter which dynasty or which generation, money will not weaken its social function because of the turbulence of the current situation. No wonder Lu Bao compares money to "God". As a medium of circulation, coins may exist in the world forever, so they have the positive significance of "being the God of the world". The amount of money held is often the root of the polarization between the rich and the poor. Although money is regarded as an intermediary, it plays the role of vulgarity God. It is often profaned by those who are greedy for profits and defiled by lawless elements. Another reason why money is God is that it can make people smile and speak

The most difficult thing to say is that it can also give people different status and destiny.

This reminds us of Xiamen Yuanhua smuggling case, the biggest corruption case in China at the end of last century. The money in Lai Changxing's hands spilled on the officialdom, which led so many high-ranking officials to see money and be led by the nose by the God of money. They walked into Lai Changxing's Yuanhua Red Mansion and reached the end of their official career. The corruption of some high-level officials has proved Lu Bao's assertion of Kong Fangxiong's "divine power": "if you see my brother, you will be surprised "The gate of paizhu, the gate of Zikai..." In people's social life, morality sometimes can't defeat money, so there is an ugly saying that "no fraud, no business" endangers businessmen; money also directs the tragicomedy of life that "the rich are happy and the poor are sad", so there is a saying that "money can make the devil push the mill" in the world.

The common people know the importance of saving money most, because with the spare money, they can solve the emergency crisis. So Lu Bao said that money is the God to protect the auspicious and safe: "the blessing of money is good. Where money is, danger can make it safe, death can make it alive; where money goes, high can make it cheap, life can make it kill. " Today's judicial circle once used to use money to buy tickets to win a lawsuit, which is also praised by Lu: "because of this, we can't afford a hundred dollars; because of loneliness, weakness and stagnation, we can't get rid of it; because of resentment, we can't get rid of it." Facing the huge positive and negative effects of money, Lu Bao wrote helplessly: "money can make ghosts, let alone people?" In fact, Lu Bao's "money God" borrows money to draw gods and curse people. Lu Bao is a Confucian scholar who is familiar with classic historical records. He regards "Kong Fang" as his "brother", but he is "despised by the rich". Therefore, he said to himself: "the poem says:" I am rich, I am lonely. " Is that so? " It shows his strong disdain and ridicule for money.

Lu Bao praised the positive significance of money and warned us to understand the sense of honor and disgrace derived from money. On the one hand, he wanted us to know that the ugly appearance of officialdom revealed in his works was intended to satirize the world and admonish people. In our life, we often bring a lot of unnecessary troubles because of money. Therefore, when we have leisure time, we can find out the book Qian Shen, which is much wiser for us to get rid of the troubles brought by brother Kong Fang and for us to deal with the coldness of the world. I think that as long as people are still alive, we should read Lu Bao's money theism, because we are still in the real life of "money is not omnipotent, but without money is absolutely impossible".

There are different views on when Lu Bao's Qian Shen was written. Fang Xuanling and others wrote the biography of Lu Bao in the book of Jin, reclusive life, and said: "after Yuankang, the discipline was very bad, and the greed and despicableness of praising and injuring was the hidden name, but Qian Shen was written to stab it. Some comrades think that Yuankang was the year title of Huidi in the Western Jin Dynasty, and Qian Shen was written after Yuankang, Huidi in the Western Jin Dynasty. Some comrades think that Yuankang refers to Emperor Yuandi and Emperor Kangdi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and Qian Shen was written after emperor Yuandi and Emperor Kangdi of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Yuankang is indeed the year name of Huidi in the Western Jin Dynasty. From the perspective of historical background, the statement in the book of Jin that "after Yuankang, Gangji was badly damaged" should be after Yuankang, Huidi of the Western Jin Dynasty. During the reign of emperor yuan and Emperor Kang in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, due to "bad discipline" and chaos for many years, they could only be partial to the left, which was inconsistent with the historical background of the book of Jin. In addition, Fang Xuanling clearly pointed out that Lu Bao's "Qian Shen" was written after Huidi's "Gangji Dabai". "Huidi Ji" said: "Huidi" and stay in a big position, political out of the group, Gangji big bad, bribery, power position of the family, to expensive mausoleum things, loyal and virtuous road Jue, slander evil ambition, more phase wilt, the world said
