Chapter 48: The weak never overcomes the strong

Views:

"...Theoretically speaking, for a restaurant with a lot of people, if it is too busy, it can basically take effect in three or four days. At present, it is not looking for people, but according to the wages of the people, it is expected that a restaurant will have a roof top. More than two, there are currently four restaurants, and it is very easy to sell 60 to 80 per day. According to the profit, there should be eight yuan for a Songhua Egg, and if there is more than half a month, the investment can also be recovered. …”

The sound of the abacus sounded in the room, and Ning Yi kept talking and made calculations at will: "But if the market expands too fast and the marinade is not enough before, I am afraid that the supply will exceed the demand. So in my opinion, it is not necessary for the time being. Consider expanding the target further, but no matter what, there is always no problem if new things have to open up sales.”

Kang Xian took a sip of tea over there and raised his eyebrows: "I've seen it in the past few days, but I thought you had some wonderful tricks, but I didn't expect this trick to hire someone as a trustee. The method is really simple."

"Haha, the soldiers are good and right, and the ones that don't work can be surprising. It's a simple matter in itself, it's enough to solve the problem, why should you think about it too much." Ning Yi smiled.

"That's true." Kang Xian nodded, "But Liheng's technique, is it positive or strange?"

Qin Lao smiled and said: "It's right, it's also strange. If you just talk about the technique, it's probably considered odd, but here, there's nothing surprising, it should be considered right." He thought for a while: "What Li Heng said before Fifty cents a piece, how to sell it?"

"Heh, if you go up to fifty cents, there's no limit to what you sell. It's not just Songhua eggs." Ning Yi smiled, "Fugui eggs, jade eggs, if I own a restaurant, make it splendid, and then wantonly To render the symbol of this egg. If you put a bowl in each banquet, say something auspicious, and write a little story if you have nothing to do, then everyone will not eat the egg, put it on it, just for the symbol of wealth, fifty wen , 100 wen, or even two consistent, that's just an asking price. If there are rich people like Kang Lao who put a few bowls and say a few words at the banquet, they will naturally be more valuable. Rich people, There will be a rush, no surprise."

"I heard Liheng talk about fifty-one a piece of paper that day. I thought it was an amazing strategy. Unexpectedly, it was still an ordinary statement." Kang Xian shook his head with a smile, and then thought about it, "However, I want to come here. Indeed it is."

Ning Yi smiled and said, "There is no such thing as an amazing strategy in this world. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than setting a goal and then solving the problem. Just like on the battlefield, where the soldiers are outstanding, and the weak overcome the strong, in fact, there is no such thing as What is the weaker than the strong, really speaking, it is the strong that defeats the weak.”

"I've never heard of such a statement." Qin Lao frowned, "In the military book, although it is better to use the right than to use the odd, it advocates the method of the right way, and avoids the sword from going sideways, but every change in the art of war is to strive to win by the weak. Strong, after all, if I am strong and the enemy is weak, it doesn’t make much sense to have this art of warfare or not. This old man cannot agree with Liheng’s statement.”

"Uh, no such statement?" Ning Yi was slightly stunned.

"Indeed not." Kang Xian laughed, "As Liheng said, if all strategies are used to solve problems, then only if the enemy is strong and I am weak, there will be problems. When I am strong and the enemy is weak, why should I use the art of war? Therefore, in the art of war, if it is not the basics of the military formation, it is mostly about the situation of using the weak against the strong."

"That's true." Ning Yi smiled and nodded, "The difference in the way of saying it is just on paper. Haha, I laughed."

"This is just talking about war on paper, this old man is not familiar with the art of war..." Qin Lao took a sip of tea, and seemed to remember some past events, his smile was slightly complicated, and then he said, "There is nothing wrong with Liheng, where did Liheng's statement come from? Come on, let's go into more detail."

Ning Yi thought for a while, and after a while, he drew the chessboard next to him: "It was originally a difference of opinion, but the matter is the same, the art of warfare is to use the weak to defeat the strong. From this point of view, what is really important is how to balance the two sides. It's just a change of strength."

He took out ten white chess pieces from the chess urn on the opposite side, then took out five black chess pieces from his side, and then divided the white chess pieces: "Simply put, the number of enemies is ten, and our There are only five, and they cannot be beaten. According to the calculation, they will be divided into four parts, each of which is one, two, three, and four. We will attack four of them with five of our troops, and defeat the opponent. Under our advantage, we will lose one and the rest. Four parts, four against three, then three against two, two against one... The battle situation has been decided, the weak wins the strong, in fact, it is subdivided, and every time the strong wins the weak."

Old Qin said with a smile: "Liheng said this matter is too reasonable..." When he was about to finish speaking, he was suddenly stunned, then looked at the chess piece, frowned and wanted to write something. Kang Lao originally wanted to say that this statement was too ideal.

Ning Yi smiled: "It's too ideal, it's true." He stretched out his hand and gathered the white characters together, "The actual battle formation is too complicated, it's really impossible to get such an ideal state, but this is just a way of seeing things. , it is not so accurate from the beginning. But if we push back from the results, every war in which the weak wins the strong, or the strong wins the weak, is divided into such a situation, and there is no real weak soldier. The state of being able to defeat the strong soldiers, because the strong and the weak are themselves determined by whether they can defeat and kill the opponent. Here, the hero is determined by success or failure. Try to make every battle win the weak locally, and even divide it into every sergeant in detail. Of course, no matter how good a general is, it is impossible to grasp the overall situation to such an extent, but every army , when facing another team of the opponent, whether it will win or lose, after all, there is a simple grasp."

"In shopping malls, on the battlefield, in human behavior, and in doing things, I don't believe there is a true saying that the weak wins the strong. Of course, many invisible factors are probably part of the strong and weak, such as intelligence, people's hearts, likes and dislikes, and even luck. The goal is ahead, The road may not be seen, or there may be many, how to reach the previous step of the goal, but it can be reversed like this. If it is subdivided into step by step, you may find that each step is very simple and only solves the problem, so I don’t believe it. What kind of tricks are there." He thought about it, pushed back the chessboard, and smiled at himself again, "Of course, on paper, those generals who lead troops to fight, even if they don't think so, will be very powerful. Anyway, how is it? It's just to see, it won't solve the real problem."

"However, in the details, it is true that the strong overcomes the weak, and there is never a principle that the weak overcomes the strong." Qin Lao sighed, "Liheng's statement is indeed simple, but it is quite in line with the Dao, the art of war... It is true that the weak becomes the strong, and the It’s not that the weak wins the strong, if the two are clearly distinguished, then it’s also…”

When one thing is there, how to look at the laws in it is probably of no use to ordinary people, but for people like Qin Siyuan and Kang Xian, it has a different meaning. When Old Qin thought deeply, Kang Xian shook his head slightly.

"Such a statement is too sober. Liheng values the study of things, which is different from others. It is really thought-provoking to be able to comprehend this. But have you ever thought about what people are in these calculations? Even people's hearts and feelings of the world. , these many things…”

Qin Siyuan is a pragmatic person, but his human relationships are also clear, but he may be troubled by some past events. He was a little emotional when he heard Ning Yi's words. Kang Xian, on the other hand, was more concerned with the world than Qin Siyuan, and that was the first thing he noticed. After saying this, Ning Yi glanced at the chessboard, shook his head with a smile, and did not answer.

In the past, he acted for people and followed a modern analysis system. Everything in the world was a piece of data, and luck and accident were only counted as a probability. To a certain extent, the so-called miracle does not actually exist, it is nothing more than the difference between a big appetite, a bigger appetite, and an appetite that is too big. But now it is different, Tian Xingjian, gentleman with self-improvement. Confucianism is an extremely moderate, conservative and rigorous study, but at a certain point it gives people an extremely upward hope. It must require the greatest affirmation of one’s own cultivation and efforts, affirming the meaning of the individual, and affirming that it is self-defeating. People and I go. The reasons for this are complicated, but to a certain extent, this may be the reason why Confucianism curbs the examination of things and goes further and further away from the rigorous and cold logic system of "because, so" in the West.

I can't go any further here, and then I talk about trivial matters. Ning Yi also casually asked about Song Xian, the commander of the Wu Lie Army. In the curiosity of Qin Lao Kang, he admitted that it was because of Yuan Xi, and Kang Xian laughed: "Haha, I searched for him a thousand times in the crowd. He searched for thousands of Baidu in the crowd, I only thought that Liheng used this word to express his ambition, but I never thought that there was a crowd looking for him for thousands of Baidu, I don’t know how to let others know, how to laugh... But Liheng, you are actually a martial artist and a ranger. If you are interested, this is not good. No matter how powerful it is, it is no more than ten enemies or a hundred enemies. It is not as good as what you said just now, although there are some problems, but if you continue to develop, you can become a Confucian general, and that is the enemy of ten thousand people... By the way, Ah You, come here."

Although he said so, he then called in his attendant named Agui. Although this man's name sounds tacky, his status is not low, he is just respectful in front of Kang Xian, Ning Yi knows that his full name is Lu Agui. Then Kang Xian asked about the assassination of Song Xian, and the man thought for a while.

"Song Xian is not very clear when he is young, but if Ning Gongzi is interested in martial arts, it is said that he is indeed a person with profound martial arts. Reuse, the most elite guard battalion commander now. It's just... This person has a bad reputation. It is said that he is domineering and arrogant. He was born in the green forest in his early years. I'm interested, but if you're not familiar with him, I think you should try not to get close to him, after all, your own art industry is a taboo above the rivers and lakes."

"Then... Brother Lu knows that there are many people with advanced martial arts skills in the arena?"

"Profound martial arts, Ning Gongzi refers to the internal skills that can really break down trees and rocks. There are really very few people like this. At this time, there are more or less a few people in each military brigade, among a few chaotic and bandit armies, or There are also such strong men. It seems that the assassin who assassinated Song Xian that day, although I have never seen it, but I have heard of the incident that day. This man missed a hit and started a killing spree in Feiyan Pavilion, and later injured even Song Xian. After more than ten people left, the injury is still not serious, Song Xian is a master himself, this person is already a super player in the arena, but even so, who she is, I can't guess who she is."

He paused for a while. In fact, he met Ning Yi many times, and sometimes we talked a few times, but he still had a good impression. He clasped his fists and said, "Actually... Forgive me for being blunt. Most of them start from a young age and have deep internal skills. And let's not say whether Ning Gongzi can find such a person, even if he can find it, it is useless now, and... even if it is useful, martial arts is not the magic of internal skills. For decades, he has amazing talent in this area, and it is useless to practice it. Such skills need to be constantly honed in battle and killing. The important thing is to be fast, ruthless, accurate, murderous and bloody. Internal strength is just a method of exerting force. If you just practice these, you will not be able to match a veteran who has experienced battles. Ning Gongzi is a great talent. People, who will be officials and generals in the future, are all enemies of ten thousand people, so why should they give up the basics and chase the bottom in this matter?”

No matter how romantic the martial arts are written, but in reality, who would really yearn for the kind of day that has passed today and does not know if there will be tomorrow. The vast majority of people still learned the idea of sold to the emperor's family. This Lu Agui has been with Kang Xian for a long time, and most of them think that Ning Yi is extraordinary, and it is a pity to waste time for martial arts training. The meaning is also simple: you are a scholar, you have no chance to fight, and if you don't have an environment where you can integrate and understand, you can't practice martial arts. Ning Yi knew that he could say these words with sincerity and sincerity, and quickly thanked him.

After chatting for a while, after Ning Yi left, the sun was just right in the afternoon, and the spring on the banks of the Qinhuai River was pleasant. He walked along the river bank for a while, still thinking about martial arts. When he approached the small building where Nie Yunzhu lived, he was still in the river bay here, and saw a black plume of smoke coming out there. It was like General fire.

He walked all the way, and when he walked to the front of the small building, he saw thick smoke billowing from the kitchen, and a figure was drowned in the thick smoke. ran out.

That was the embarrassed Nie Yunzhu. At this time, black marks appeared on his face. Even in the cold spring, he was sweating profusely. With a big fan in his hand, he ran to the corridor and looked back at the kitchen surrounded by smoke and dust, probably still thinking about how to get in. When he turned his head, he saw Ning Yi on the road ahead, slightly stunned. stunned.

Ning Yi couldn't help laughing, and then Nie Yunzhu laughed too, embarrassedly wiping his cheek with the back of his hand, and a more obvious black-gray mark appeared in the sweat.

There was a bit of embarrassment in that smile, but I don't know why, with the black marks on the cheeks, it just made people feel pure and beautiful...
