I seek economic hegemony in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 160 Successfully learn from the master Li Heng?
  "I heard that if you come here to study, you can get half a stone of food a month, so I came here."

Another young man named Zhang Xian said, covering the bruised left side of his face.

"Li Shangshu, we really have no way to stay here any longer."

"Li Shangshu, I'm sorry!"

"I'm sorry!"

One after another young people said dejectedly.

"I can completely understand how you feel." Li Heng said loudly, "My father is a doctor, and my family is not a prominent aristocratic family, but I am standing here. Do you know the reason?"

"Li Shangshu is the one who is favored by the Prime Minister. We don't have your talent. We are just ordinary people..."

"Why did the Prime Minister like me? Is it just because of my talents?"

Tang Wei asked curiously: "Is there any other reason?"

Li Heng's eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he said in a calm tone: "Do you know how our army defeated the Wei army in Guanzhong the year before last?"

"We cut down countless trees, dug trenches as long as from Chengdu to Bajun, surrounded all our military camps and fields, piled them into mounds, and then made horses out of wood."

"When tens of thousands of Wei troops came to attack us, our soldiers assembled at the offensive point and blocked the Wei troops' attacks again and again, preventing Sima Yi from advancing at all."

"Later, the Lord of Wei personally led an army. The Wei thieves were determined to be evil. In the severe cold winter, the Wei army covered half of the pass. They were wearing iron armor and holding halberds. They attacked us again and again. Each of our soldiers Another one fell down.”

"In that bloody battle, the Wei army was like tigers and wolves, while our army was like steel. The soldiers who died piled up like mountains. In the end, we still defeated the Wei army and let the Lord Wei return defeated."

"At this point, our Han army has established a foothold in Guanzhong, and then moves westward to take Longyou, and the current situation will be determined!"

Everyone's eyes flickered.

Li Heng continued: "I know you are thinking in your hearts, what does King Wang's recovery of Guanzhong and Longyou have to do with you."

Tang Wei and others smiled awkwardly when Li Heng said what he was thinking.

"Today I don't want to tell you that you have to sacrifice yourselves for the sake of the big man. I want to tell you that those who died on the front line received generous pensions, and those who bravely killed the enemy received what they deserved. Promotion!"

"Do you still want to go back to farming and your children will continue farming in the future?"

The crowd fell silent.

"Compared to killing enemies on the front line, can what happened today be considered dangerous?"

Everyone was still silent.

Li Heng added: "We must pay in order to have it!"

After a moment of silence, Tang Wei whispered: "Those who beat us today, what did they pay?"

"They must also pay in the future! I said so!" Li Heng's tone suddenly became firm, his eyes changed, he walked back and forth twice, and continued, "The Prime Minister, following the late emperor's legacy, wants to help the Han Dynasty and bring peace to the world. , How can a good boy give up so easily just because of a small setback!"

"Our ambition is to serve the country and the people in a big way, and to serve our family in a small way! I have a little talent, but thanks to the Prime Minister's trust and His Majesty's mercy, I have only made an inch of progress, and I dare not slack off!"

"Every time I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night, and I hate that I can't overcome the thorns!"

Everyone was silent with a bit of surprise.

"Life is like a journey of adversity, how can it be smooth sailing?"

At this time, Tang Wei already had a look of shame on his face.

"If there are thorns ahead, we will break through them! If there are rocks ahead, we will break them up! If we fall among the rocks, we will fall there, so what!" The scene was completely silent.

After a moment of silence, Tang Weicai said: "Li Shangshu, what can we learn here and what can we do for the country? We have ambitions in our hearts, but we don't know what talents we can use. Please ask Li Shangshu to point us in the direction!" "

"Yes, Li Shangshu, my father is a blacksmith and has been working on iron for half his life. Our strength is as small as dust, so what can we do?"

"My father is a craftsman. He only repaired some furniture for the county. He never thought about doing something for the world. I came here just to receive half a stone of food a month. But after listening to what you just said, I also want to do something. Something, but I don’t know how to do it!”

"It's just that you don't know how to do it!" Li Heng's voice was loud and penetrating, "If you knew how to do it, what else would you need from the Capital University!"

Everyone was slightly startled.

"Do you know what the frontline army needs most?" Li Heng's eyes suddenly locked on Tang Wei, "Your brother's name is Tang Feng. I met him when I was in Guanzhong."

Tang Wei's eyes suddenly turned red: "Have you really seen my brother?"

"I've seen him!" Li Heng said categorically, "Before going out to the expedition, I was ordered to take people to deliver clothes to the soldiers. I've seen him, and he is a very good person!"

Tang Wei became even more excited.

His elder brother was the person he admired most. Last year, news came that his elder brother had died in battle, and the whole family suddenly collapsed.

The old mother cried for three days and three nights.

What's even more tragic is that my brother's bones cannot be transported back to his hometown and can only stay in Guanzhong forever.

He didn't expect Li Shangshu to have met his brother.

He's seen shit!
  Li Heng had never met his brother. He learned about it from the information about the academy provided by Lu Zhi.

"I saw your brother's body with my own eyes. Do you know how he died? The enemy's knife pierced his chest!"

Tang Wei's tears couldn't help but flow down.

"You say you are useless?" Li Heng looked at the blacksmith's son and said, "If his brother had been wearing iron armor, he might not have died."

Everyone was shocked.

"So, I'll tell you how to do it." Li Heng glanced at everyone again, "You learn the art of making iron armor here, which can minimize the casualties of frontline soldiers! You learn the art of papermaking here, and you can help the frontline exchange If you get more food, you can learn the art of weaving to help the frontline soldiers keep out the cold in winter!"

"Also, get enough food for your own families."

What fundamental questions does anyone face in life?
  who am I?
  what can I do?
  What do I gain by doing this?
  Material income and spiritual income are both indispensable.

Humans are both animals from nature and also socialized.

The instinct of animals is to eat enough, and the essence of socialization is to find one's own social value.

Li Heng explained to them the significance of their coming here today in terms of food content and social value.

This undoubtedly touched their hearts.

"Li Shangshu!" Tang Wei hissed, "I am not talented, but I am willing to do my best!"

Everyone said one after another: "I am willing to do my best for Li Shangshu!"

"No no! You are not working for me, you are working for yourself and the world!"
