Using Others as a Mirror, You Can Understand the New Book of Gains and Losses
"With copper as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes.”
"Using others as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses.
"With history as a mirror, we can know the rise and fall!”
Wang Chen said this sentence slowly.
Li Shi Min's body shook.
His originally probing gaze instantly turned pale with fright.
This sentence…was actually so philosophical!
Li Er felt his scalp go numb as he repeated these three sentences repeatedly.
Every time he read it, he felt that the meaning was profound and it was enough to leave an endless aftertaste.
The young man in front of him, who was not even twenty years old, could actually say such words that contained endless logic.
If he hadn't seen Wang Chen spit it out with his own eyes, Li Shiming would have thought that these words were spoken by a recluse in the forest.
One had to have at least decades of life experience and have seen through the storms to be able to sum up this sentence that could be called a great truth.
This made Li Shi Min wonder if the man in front of him was really a monster.
This young appearance always gave him great confusion.
However, who would have thought that under this delicate and handsome appearance, there was such a huge amount of energy.
He was talented in literature and martial arts, resourceful, far-sighted, and had a unique vision!
Li Shi Min couldn't help but confirm his thoughts.
This was the talent of the Great Tang, the pillar and backbone of the Great Tang!
"Using others as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses!”
"Good, this sentence is really good!"
"Shopkeeper Wang, I'm convinced by you. Just based on today's words, you deserve my bow!”
Li Shi Min also stood up and folded his arms in front of him.
This was the first time he had treated someone so seriously after becoming the ruler of the world.
This was enough to prove how important Wang Chen was to him.
Wang Chen didn't know Li Shi Min's identity at all, so he didn't think it was inappropriate for a businessman to be convinced by his words.
After all, this was the truth that the great Taizong Li Shimin had summed up after half his life.
An ordinary person would definitely be shocked when they heard that.
It was only right that this little merchant in front of him was stunned by him.
However, Wang Chen still quickly walked forward and helped Li Shimin up.
"Hey, Old Li, you're treating me like an outsider. There's no need for such a grand ceremony between us.”
"I just said it casually. It's not worth mentioning.”
Li Shi Min couldn't help but laugh when he saw the shopkeeper's attitude.
After interacting for so long, he could be considered to have a preliminary understanding of Wang Chen's temperament.
This also slightly diluted the shock in his heart.
"Shopkeeper Wang, I remember these three sentences, but what does this have to do with the annoyance I just mentioned?”
Wang Chen pulled Li Shi Min back to his seat and said,""Carefully taste the second sentence."
"With this old butler by your side, isn't it a lesson for you?”
"Since you say that he has a good character and is a loyal person, then won't he be of considerable use to you?”
"I think you still need this kind of person by your side. Although you're a businessman, you still have to maintain some character.”
" At the very least, there must be someone around you who speaks the truth. If everyone flatters you, they will only know how to flatter you and will not be able to point out your mistakes.”
"Over time, you will only hear and see good things, blindly ignoring your own flaws and mistakes.”
"When the time comes, no one will remind you of any fatal flaws or loopholes. You won't even know it. I'm afraid you'll suffer a considerable loss.”
After hearing Wang Chen's serious words, Li Shiming immediately fell into deep thought.
He had to admit that the shopkeeper's words made sense.
And he couldn't always have people who only knew how to bootlick and speak good words.
Otherwise, as time passed, he would not be able to hear the truth and see the truth. He would become blind.
If he was really just a businessman, he might be able to ignore this drawback.
But his real identity was the emperor. Could the emperor only have people who flattered him?
Then how could he still be a wise king?
However, after much consideration, Li Shimin asked,""Then does this old butler have to be so direct and merciless?”
"Even if you're trying to persuade me, you should be more tactful. This way, I'll be more able to accept it when I hear it.”
Wang Chen simply shook his head.
"Obviously not. If I were to really be tactful, would you still listen? I'm afraid you won't even be bothered by today's situation. Instead, you'll turn a deaf ear to it.”
"I see that you still don't understand. I'll give you an example today, but you just have to listen and not tell anyone.”
Li Shi Min hurriedly nodded his head like a curious baby listening to a story.
Wang Chen pointed upwards.
"I don't know if you've heard of it, but the current Emperor has a subject called Wei Zheng.”
Li Shi Min's heart skipped a beat.
F * ck, Wei Zheng?
How could he not have heard of it? Wasn't Li Er annoyed because of Wei Zheng this time?
Li Er was naturally shocked. He almost thought that his true identity had been discovered.
However, seeing that Wang Chen didn't have any other strange behavior, he calmed down.
"Wei Zheng? I think I've heard of it before. Why don't you tell me in detail?”
