"Because I feel that I am not this material, I am still very self-aware, and I can't even hold the knife firmly, so how could I hope to be such a person?" Zhao Le shrugged.

"Then what kind of person do you want to be?" Lu An asked curiously.

"Me?" Zhao Le fell into deep thought. When he was still a gangster, his family didn't care. His dream every day was to eat and drink, and just cheat and make some money.

Every time I watch the caravan pass by Qingshui Town, I will go to the caravan with the gangsters here to pick up some cheaper prices.

It is said that he is picking up a bargain, but Zhao Le came up with a trick and then cheated those caravans. Although those caravans are all talented, they are still being cheated in the end.

At this time, Zhao Le always feels pride. None of the caravans that travel around the world falls into his own hands. If he can also go to business like them, he will definitely do better than them and earn much more than them.

Zhao Le remembered the little ideal before, suddenly laughed dryly, and said, "Actually, when I was a child, I had many ideas, and others said I was treacherous, so I actually wanted to be a businessman." After saying that, he touched his head honestly.

When Lu An heard what Zhao Le said, he was surprised.

Because the books given by Jiang Tian said that scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were positioned as the lowest class of society, and I don’t understand why Zhao Le had such a choice.

Lu An told him what he was confused about.

Zhao Le said shyly: "When I was a child, I also studied in a private school for a year or two. My husband also said this to me: Scholars, farmers, industry and businessmen, scholars ranked first because they established morality and made contributions to the world. Xuande Gong was the first to benefit future generations. Farmers ranked second because people regard food as the most, and the granaries are full, and they know etiquette. Craftsmen want to be good at it beforehand, and they are indispensable in life or other aspects. Only this businessman is full of odor." After saying that, he smiled foolishly.

Lu An nodded, but he didn't realize that the little gangster still had some ink in his belly.

Zhao Le continued: "I thought it was right when I was a child, but now I have grown up, I feel that this statement doesn't seem to be right."

Lu An asked back: "The truth written in the book of sages has been around for thousands of years, right? Isn't it appropriate to say something wrong?"

Zhao Le replied in a low voice: "I'm just talking. I'm not a scholar. I just read it for two years when I was a child. Just listen to it casually, just treat what I'm talking nonsense."

Lu An nodded, it would be absolutely right to listen to more truths.

Zhao Le sat upright and spoke, "The class in this world is like a pyramid. The tops of the tower are those, such as warriors, immortals like you, and those with power, such as King Ning, General Hu, etc.."

Lu An smiled directly and said, "There are a lot of people, you may not be able to stand at the top of your tower."

Zhao Le explained: "This world is too big, I just give an example. They are considered to be the first type of people. Then the lower level of people are the so-called work, food, clothing, housing and transportation, and they are inseparable from them. They built the second level of this pyramid, and the so-called prosperity in the world is revealed through their hands. The third level, that is, the last level, are farmers and those others. Because they have the most people, they can only be placed at the bottom level. Since they have so many people, they have the meaning of existence."

Lu An was a little confused when he heard it, with a look of confusion on his face.

When Zhao Le saw Lu An's performance, he scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "It's probably because he has little study and is not very good at speaking."

"There is another one you haven't said yet." Lu An reminded.

"The last one, merchant, I mean a real merchant, not a small vendor who sets up street stalls, but a kind of merchant who really walks on the third floor of the pyramid. They can bring the third floor to the second floor, or even the first floor, and show the results of the second floor to the first floor, and the third floor, forming one cycle after another in a pyramid. Moreover, there are so many pyramids in this world, they can bring the materials of this pyramid to another pyramid, forming cycles. They are appendages of the pyramid, both relying on survival and gaining a foothold. Their status should be at the top of the great pyramid in the world. If they were not their pyramid, it was just a pool of stagnant water." Zhao Le finished this excitedly with a slightly flushed face.

Lu An looked at Zhao Le's flushed face, not knowing whether it was because he drank too much or was excited.

However, after hearing what Zhao Le said, his mind suddenly appeared, one pyramid after another, and one white route after another, and finally there was an extremely huge pyramid, bounced with flashes.

Lu An could only sigh at Zhao Le’s thoughts, and he definitely did not have such an opinion.

Looking at a small postman in the inn, Lu An was greatly frustrated, or a little bit of admiration, and was extremely firm in the path he wanted to take.

Zhao Le took a sip of wine, moistened his throat, and said to Lu An with a smile: "Don't be surprised, these are all nonsense and nonsense. It's better to guard the two old men at home peacefully, then marry a wife and have a fat boy, and you'll live a comfortable life."

When Lu An heard what Zhao Le said, he was a little confused about how to speak. When he remembered the bearded man and Jiang Tian’s instructions, he already knew that it was impossible to live a peaceful life in Ningguo. It may be that Ningguo will no longer exist in a few months. Zhao Le thought about it, but the ending will definitely not be satisfactory.

Even in the end, Ning Guo survived, but in the end, how many households in the ten thousand miles of the territory could survive? Thinking of this, Lu An became even sad.

This kind of feeling should have been numb for a long time. During the time I first came to the city, this emotion filled me with half a year. I gradually watched the people around me fall down one by one, and I gradually became numb. From that time on, the reputation of the boy on the city was gradually accumulated.

Unexpectedly, this emotion has revived now?

Looking at Zhao Le, who was flushed in front of him and showed a simple smile, his heart softened. If he could help, then help once.

Lu An asked, "Since you have thought so much, do you have the idea of ​​going to business by yourself?"

When Zhao Le heard this, his eyes, which had been turbid after drinking, suddenly became brighter and quickly replied: "Of course there is." After saying this, he became listless and continued: "It's useless to have it, no money, no one believes it."

"Speak and I'll listen." Lu An asked.

Zhao Le raised his spirits a little and said, "The most basic thing is Ningguo's tea."

"Tea?" Lu An asked back.

Zhao Le nodded and said, "I have compared the differences between the caravans resting at the post station. Their tea is thick and astringent, and has a very poor taste. However, this kind of tea is the best tea in their place. In contrast, Ningguo's tea has a sweet taste, a mellow aftertaste and full of aroma. Moreover, Ningguo produces tea. Now the group of people who are doing business in Ningguo are mainly specialties from various places, and the country travels between countries based on wars and ores. Almost no one has developed the way of tea."

After Zhao Le finished speaking, he took a pot of tea from the side and poured a cup of Lu An.

Lu An took a sip and felt it was just the same. It was the taste of tea, slightly sweet and tea aroma, but he still looked puzzled.

Afterwards, Zhao Le took some tea from a cabinet and ran a pot again, and made another cup for Lu An.

Lu An took another sip and frowned. The tea was so astringent.

For Lu An, a person who doesn’t know how to drink tea, the best is right and wrong.

When Lu An looked at the two cups of tea in front of him, it seemed that the gap was indeed very big.

Zhao Le explained: "The first cup is the ordinary tea from our Ningguo. It has a clear fragrance and a full tea aroma. The second cup is their tea, which is bitter. Compared with the tea from Ningguo, it is completely incomparable. For those who know how to drink tea, drinking a cup of tea will be light but not as good as it is, with a slight fragrance but slightly bitter, and the aftertaste is endless, while their tea is only bitter and astringent."

Lu An nodded.

"Ningguo is also rich in tea, and the price is quite cheap. Tea is very lightweight. If it is properly preserved and sold, it will definitely make a lot of money." Zhao Le said affirmatively.

Lu An thought for a while and there was no logical problem, and this idea seemed to be OK.

"If possible, would you like to give you such a plan?" Lu An asked.

Zhao Le was really stunned this time and said, "Really, is it true?"

Lu An nodded and said, "If you are willing to try it."

Zhao Le knelt directly in front of Lu An and said, "Sir, I am willing, but there are risks in business operations. I dare not confirm 100% that I can succeed. If it succeeds in the future, I will be the main one. If there is any lie, it will be struck by lightning and you will not die well."

Lu An waved his hand and said to Zhao Le: "If you want to live, you must leave here and try it out. I won't say much about the others."

After Lu An finished speaking, he took out a thousand taels and handed them to Zhao Le, saying, "I hope you can succeed, don't let my money go to waste."

Zhao Le cried as he looked at the money and was reluctant to get up for a long time.

The next day, it was not yet dawn.

Lu An set off on his way alone with a steamed bun in his mouth.

After just two steps, I shook my head, "I feel like I've been cheated, and I've lost a lot."
