Chapter 87 Barbecue Stall and Chat
"I heard that you changed your job?" Xu Ming put his phone on the table and asked while drinking Coke.
"Consultation is probably about listening to other people tell me about the troubles they encounter, and then helping them solve the problems." Li Yu said.
"The Master House in "Gintama"?"
"It's a bit like it."
"It sounds quite interesting," Xu Mingdao said, "Then I will go to you to solve any difficulties I encounter in the future, and I can also take care of your business."
"You'd better not have too high expectations."
"Why?"
"Because humans are not gods after all. No matter how hard we try, some difficulties cannot be solved." Li Yu said.
"It sounds so depressing, but it's not like you would say it." Xu Ming was a little surprised, "Why, is the new job not going well?"
"Not really," Li Yu paused, "but there is something that really bothers me."
At this time, the landlady brought out the cold dishes they ordered, a plate of cold chrysanthemums and a plate of sesame paste mixed with gluten.
Xu Ming took out two pairs of disposable chopsticks from the chopstick bucket, handed one pair to Li Yu, opened the other pair himself, rubbed the wooden thorns on them, "Tell me and listen."
"Well, do you remember a debate question from the debate club before? It was about whether unconscious evil is evil."
"I'm a little impressed," Xu Ming took a bite of gluten first, and then said hello, "Don't just talk, eat it quickly, it's still the same taste, it hasn't changed at all... It's strange to say that the sesame paste and spicy oil from other places None of them are as fragrant as his. ”
Then Xu Ming couldn't help but let out a sigh, "Ah, speaking of the Debate Club, I really miss when I was in school. There would be many beautiful junior girls joining the club every year. That bastard president, relying on the little power he had, changed the club every year. Girlfriend. I heard that this guy is now working as a headhunter, so many female job seekers are probably going to suffer.”
"President Zhang?"
"Yes, I met him at the China World Trade Center before. I digressed from the topic. Let's not talk about that guy. Is unconscious evil evil? Is there anything wrong with this argument? I remember we won the argument at that time.
"Evil deeds are evil deeds and have nothing to do with subjective consciousness. When a chick is just born, it will push other companions out of the nest and throw them to death. It may not realize that it is doing evil, but it is just out of the survival instinct of getting more food.
"But its behavior did have a very bad impact on other chicks, so this is a kind of evil... I remember what you said at that time."
"Yeah." Li Yu also took a sip of orange juice, "Suppose a group of people did bad things, but for the purpose of survival, and then they find you and are willing to pay you a large sum of money in the hope that you can save them. And you happen to have the ability to save them, and you also need the reward. What will you do?”
"Is it illegal?"
"What?"
"Is it illegal to save them?"
"This... is not illegal."
"Then there's nothing to hesitate about. Save him." Xu Ming said without hesitation.
"They are evil people, according to our previous discussion."
"Yeah, so what, what does it have to do with me that they are evil people? And as you said, the reward is very generous, and you happen to need that reward. Isn't this really illegal? Listen to your description, That group of people seems to have committed something big, be careful, make money and make money, don't get yourself involved," Xu Ming advised.
"What they committed is quite big and serious, but it does not violate the laws of our country." Li Yu said.
"That's it." Xu Ming thought for a while, "I will save you."
"I thought you would persuade me to give up the reward from a moral point of view..."
"Morality is of no use. Can it keep you fed? Of course, I'm not saying that people don't need morality. Without morality, the world will become a bloody primitive jungle. No one would like to live in this kind of world. It’s a hell of a place, but... Li Yu, do you know what your problem has always been?”
"What?"
"You have set your moral bottom line too high. You are capable, think clearly, and are organized. You are the most outstanding person I have ever met. You work hard enough, but you know why you have been unable to do anything for the past three years. Promotion? ”
"Because I always encounter bad things?"
"You asked for it."
"I've tried not to meddle in other people's business now."
"Not meddling in other people's business is just the first step. Next, you have to learn to let go of yourself. When things come to you or you want to do something, you have to lower your moral standards appropriately."
"This is a bit difficult, because what I am doing now is a job full of moral sense." Li Yu said.
"It doesn't matter, double standards are human instinct." Xu Ming sighed, "Do you remember when we discussed education? What you said at that time impressed me deeply."
"What words?"
"You said that our education system will tend to reward top students who abide by the system and rules, but when we enter society, we often find that the final winners are those who do not follow the rules and take the ordinary path."
"Well, schools or teachers should do this to reduce students' management costs. To achieve this goal, they will try their best to continuously strengthen students' obedience. After all, the evaluation dimension when studying is very single, which is grades." Li Yu said.
At this time, the boss lady had already put the grilled squid, shrimp, and meat skewers out on the iron plate, and the smell of meat was fragrant.
Xu Ming first picked a skewer of grilled oily chicken wings and said while eating, "But society is different. Unless you are so capable that people around you can't live without you, it is important to be a good person. And if your moral bottom line is exceeded High, it may not even be possible to continue normal work.”
Li Yu picked up a bunch of squid tentacles and said, "It's not that exaggerated. In fact, I chose to save people, but I feel a little uncomfortable."
There were some things that Li Yu was not comfortable saying. In fact, what really touched him was what Miss Rabbit said to him before leaving Teacup Castle.
The girl looked into his eyes and said seriously, "I don't like those lizard people at all. The reason why I agreed to them settling in my territory is not because I believe they will abide by their agreement with me, but because I believe in you. ”
This sentence made Li Yu somewhat concerned.
Xu Ming was still chattering, "Really, you have been working for more than three years, and you should have seen no less messy things than me. Unfortunately, I am still worried about when you will turn black. I didn't expect it." Are you still struggling with this kind of thing?
"You should learn from President Zhang Xue Zhang. Last time I saw him, that guy was so impressive. He seems to have been promoted again. Even if it's not good, you should look at the starting point. Don't you know that it's popular to kill decisive protagonists recently? , the so-called revenge is not separated from the chapter, and blood will be splashed five steps after a disagreement, so everyone likes to watch it. ”
"I know, enjoy your skewers." Li Yu said, "I will handle my own affairs."
Sorry, I'm half an hour late.
