Ying Yinman happily ate the delicacies, occasionally letting out a cute exclamation.
"This is delicious!"
"This is also delicious!"
"Big brother, quickly try this. This is also very, very delicious!”
Fu Su smiled and agreed, savoring the delicacies on the table elegantly.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Fu Su's face was flushed red. It was obvious that the alcohol had kicked in.
However, even though he was drunk, Fu Su still maintained his polite posture, but his mouth began to babble again.
"Shopkeeper, tell me, Great Qin's laws are so strict. When will we be able to prosper?”
"If you want the people to live a good life, you have to be benevolent, courteous, wise, and trustworthy. A ruler should be benevolent and love others. He should…"
As he listened to Fu Su's rambling, the smile on Chu Han's face gradually disappeared.
F * ck!
Just eat properly. Can't such delicious dishes shut your mouth?
Can you stop wasting time!
Chu Han used the chopsticks to pick up the ginger duck for Fu Su."Xiao Zhao, can we eat properly? He had just said that he would not speak nonsense about the gift and would not refuse the fee. Had he forgotten?”
Fu Su slammed the table and sighed.""Great Qin is suffering, so what if it's delicious food and wine? I can't eat it!"
He was the eldest son of the Qin Emperor. Before the Qin Emperor appointed an empress, he was very likely to become the next successor of this empire!
However, no matter how he looked at Great Qin, he felt that it was an eyesore.
His father, Ying Zheng, was becoming more and more tyrannical and conceited, oppressing the world without even realizing it.
Prime Minister Li Si believed that human nature was evil, so the laws he made became stricter.
He felt bitter in his heart!
Ying Yinman looked at Fu Su strangely. She was very puzzled. Why couldn't Big Brother eat such delicious dishes?
Coincidentally, a wave of delicious mutton hotpot appeared. Ying Yinman immediately forgot about Fu Su.
This instant-boiled mutton was really fragrant!
Chu Han was furious when he saw Fu Su's attitude.
Don't you know that treasuring food is the most basic respect for a chef?
Chu Han couldn't help but ask,"What makes you think that Confucianism and benevolence can lead Great Qin to a better life?"”
Fu Su said matter-of-factly,"Only by governing with virtue can the world be unified!”
Chu Han sneered." Come, then tell me. Confucius came from the State of Lu and was highly regarded by Duke Jing of Qi. King Ye personally asked Confucius about politics. Then, what about these countries? They were all dead! Do you think the people of these countries feel the benevolence of their monarch now?”
"Confucius traveled around the world, teaching and educating people. He was indeed a great sage, but he had never been a high official and was respected by most of the monarchs. If Confucianism is really the most suitable way to govern a country, are all the monarchs fools?”
"This…"
Fu Su was stunned.
However, Chu Han continued to ask,"Let me ask you again, can benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith produce an extra grain of food? Can it make warriors better at fighting? Can it make the armor stronger? The people couldn't even eat their fill and were even about to be exterminated. What right did you have to say that they were living a good life?”
Fu Su was dumbfounded!
He had been receiving the teachings of many great Confucians and yearned for the world of Great Harmony described by them.
However, Chu Han pointed out the logical loophole from the most fundamental point.
Facts speak louder than words!
Can benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith alone make the people eat one more grain of rice?
Can we save the people from the flames of war?
Fu Su knew very well that the answer was no.
Otherwise, Great Qin would not have unified the world!
"Is Confucianism really not suitable for Great Qin?" Fu Su asked in a daze.”
"Yes and no."
Fu Su stood up and bowed.""Please enlighten me."
"Since you asked sincerely, then I'll be merciful and tell you.”
Fu Su's flattery was sincere, and Chu Han was also very pleased. He rolled up his sleeves and began to speak frankly.
"Confucianism is very useful to Great Qin. It can greatly maintain the stability of the ruling class and educate the people. Even though it won't be able to produce a grain of rice, it can reduce the crime rate.”
"If the etiquette advocated by Confucianism could be realized, the world would naturally be better than it is now, but how should it be realized?”
"How?" asked Fu Su hurriedly.”
Chu Han said faintly," With the farmers increasing the production of food, with the Mohist school researching tools, with the Legalism school restricting the bottom line of the people's behavior, with the Confucians teaching people to be good and letting people know what is good. In the end, when the granaries are full, they will know etiquette, and when they have enough food and clothing, they will know honor and disgrace!”
It was as if a bolt of lightning had flashed in Fu Su's mind as he kept repeating Chu Han's words.
Fu Su had always believed that people were good. In his opinion, if the common people could eat and drink to their fill, they would naturally know etiquette and honor!
It turned out that the method to achieve the Great Harmony of the World was so simple!
Fu Su bowed deeply and said," Sir, you're a great talent. You've given me a shortcut to achieving the Great Harmony of the World with just one sentence. I, Zhao, have learned a lot!"”
Seeing Fu Su bow and not get up, Chu Han smiled in his heart.
Although Little Zhao was stubborn, his mouth was really sweet after being tricked!
"Big brother, I'm so full!"
Ying Yinman rubbed her stomach and said bitterly.
Fu Su smiled apologetically." Shopkeeper, I've wasted your time. Next time, I'll come and ask you for advice!"”
After he finished speaking, Fu Su put down a Yi of gold and pulled Ying Yinman out of Chuji Restaurant.
After they left, Ying Yinman said reluctantly,"Big brother, although I'm already a little full, I think I can still eat a little more!”
Fu Su said apologetically," The next time Eldest Brother brings you out, Eldest Brother will need to return to the palace first."”
He couldn't wait to share Chu Han's views with his gentlemen!
As he weighed the gold in his hand, Chu Han smiled and waved his hand."Guest, come often when you have time!"
In the future, if he wanted to do business with Old Zhao, Old Zhao would definitely not tip him often.
This Little Zhao looked like he had the potential to become the next fat sheep!
But why did these fat sheep have so many questions?
Is this a restaurant or a chat center?
