Ona, sitting in the back row, couldn't hold it in anymore. She used the translator to translate her broken English, which was generally: "What happened just now."

Yang Meng replied concisely: "The rich man bullied people and was educated by me!"

Ona said astonished: "There are also rich people bullying people in the Han Dynasty? I thought this is the case in my hometown."

Yang Meng smiled: "This is happening everywhere in the world! There are more such situations in Han China."

"More here?" Ona widened her eyes: "No way?"

Yang Meng nodded: "Do you know who loves money the most in the world?"

Ona said excitedly: "I know this! Stars and Stripes! Look at the lyrics of those rappers, 'I have money, I love money, I have a lot of beauties', and this is the case with ten songs and eight songs."

Yang Meng shook her head: "You are really wrong. The one who loves money the most in the world is our Han people. Do you know? There is even a god specifically about money in our Han countries, called the 'God of Wealth'. Can you find it in your religion? Doesn't this prove that we Han people love money more?"

Oona laughed after hearing this.

Yang Meng continued: "And we love money to the extreme. Do you know the Spring Festival of the Han Dynasty, right?"

Ona nodded: "Of course I know that many countries in the world have festivals to celebrate the Chinese New Year. Our country's capital also has such celebrations every year when the Chinese New Year."

Yang Meng snapped her fingers: "Then you have to say 'Happy New Year' when you celebrate the New Year, right? Do you know what blessings people say most often during the Spring Festival in the Han Dynasty?"

Ona asked in confusion: “Isn’t it a happy New Year?”

"It's really not." Yang Meng gave the answer: "The most common blessing we say when we see people is: Congratulations on getting rich. It means you will have more money."

Ona was dumbfounded: "You guys value money so much? Why is that?"

Yang Meng nodded and said, "Why is this? Haha, human nature. Don't deny that this person is poor, short and thin, and a person is poor and naturally short when he sees the rich. Didn't you feel like this when you were a 'playmate girl' to accompany those rich people? Ona, don't think I look down on you. I used to deliver food. I can meet all kinds of unreasonable weirdos. They may be very humble to others, but they will be domineering to us. Do you know why?"

Oona shook her head.

Yang Meng gave the answer: "In their eyes, I am poorer than them, and I serve them, so they will treat me like this. But if I see me wearing famous brands and driving luxury cars, they might be shooting rainbow farts at me. This is human nature. People don't know how much grievances they will suffer when making money! Most people in the world want to make money by kneeling to make money."

"What about you?" Ona asked back.

Yang Meng smiled and said, "If I make money on my knees, I may be the richest man in the world now. But unfortunately, I don't value money."

Long Teng said, "Master, there are roughly two types of people who say they don't value money. One is poor and can't make money. They say so to give themselves a step forward; the other is to have endless money to spend. So which kind of you are?"

Yang Meng pointed at Long Teng and said, "I'm not any. I'm not willing to be a slave to money! Well, I can't make it anymore, I'm the second one... Do you know how much drug commission from the municipal hospital has given me for several months? Tsk tsk, I'm lying down to make money, and those prescriptions are money trees! You said that I've been playing around during this period, but the money I spent is not as fast as I earn. Of course, I'm a bit shameless to say that. After all, I don't have any real luxury goods such as houses, cars, yachts, and private planes? You ask me to buy a house or a car, and I'll definitely not afford to buy a yacht and airplane. I can't afford a big villa either. But I'll have it, so I'm not in a hurry."

Ona asked curiously: "What does it mean to say that you are a villain just now?"

Yang Meng laughed: "Ona, the most rare thing for people is to maintain a balanced mindset. There is a saying in our Chinese country that is called "Honest children make big troubles". If those bullied gain power, they will definitely be a more ruthless group of people who bully people. Why do those "demolition second generation" and "novas" often do something speechless? Because their lives have suddenly changed drastically, they cannot maintain a normal mind. I also belong to this kind of person. I was so poor that I was dying of poverty. I suddenly had money and you let me keep my heart? Sorry, I can't do it. I'm just an ordinary person and not a saint. I also like to show off, and I also like to show off. If I can't bully people on my own initiative, it means I'm very kind. But my kindness does not mean that I'm easy to bully. If someone messes with me? Sorry, you messed with the wrong person!"

Ona pondered for a moment and said, "As far as I know, the Han people are all 'humble', but you don't seem to be like this."

Yang Meng smiled and said, "It is said that Han people are humble. When you go online, you can see that there are all kinds of humble spiritual chicken soup. But to be honest, the normal operation of the world is not based on success, not spiritual chicken soup, but on logic. Don't you think it seems a bit illogical if you have always been "humble"?"

"Irregular?" Long Teng didn't understand what Yang Meng meant.

Yang Meng smiled and said, "'Highness' is just a social attitude. Anyone can be 'humble' and no one can be 'humble'. We Chinese have received an education that 'humbleness is a virtue' since childhood and are disgusted with people who are not humble. But tell me, is this 'humbleness' really useful for people's success? Longteng, if you are humble when you go to the competition, can you win the championship? If I go to the Isle of Man and keep it humble and break the record, can I get 5% of the undiluted shares of Augusta? To put it bluntly, too humble is a kind of 'deception'. Why am I so humble?"

Long Teng suddenly said, "I remembered that I watched the 'memoir series' of "Shelmes's Detective Collection", which has a case called "Greek Translator". In which Sherlock Holmes said, 'My brother is smarter than myself'. Watson thought he was modest, so Sherlock Holmes said, 'Dear Peanut, I object to the statement that modesty is a virtue. For logicians, what everything should be like is what it is. As long as you evaluate yourself and exaggerate your talents, they are contrary to the facts. So, I said that Mycroft has a stronger observation ability than me, so you can think that I am talking about the truth.' His point of view is very similar to yours."

Yang Meng gave Long Teng a blank look: "Show you read too much, right? Well, I really mean that. It's too modest and boring. Just say it. Of course, if you are not humble in Han Dynasty, you will think that you are an "outlier" and are attacked by a group. You are like joking online that "I don't know that my wife is beautiful, Jingdong is strong, and I have no real estate king, ordinary family Tencent Ma, and Ma's father regrets creating Alibaba." They are the "four B kings". In the end, what do you say is not enough? This is really true for those four people. They have enough wealth now, what can't they say? If it were someone else, what they might say is more excessive than what they say!"

After hearing this, Ona smiled and said, "Yang, you are right. It is really difficult to keep your heart alive. If I have money, I will definitely be full of luxury goods now. Well, I want to buy a house to put on beautiful clothes and shoes! All of them are customized------You know, it is really difficult for me to buy the right clothes for my body shape!"

Long Teng nodded and said, "Oona, when I return to Handong, I will introduce you to a tailor and ask her to help you make a few clothes------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Thank you!" Ona asked back, "Yang, isn't it good to be humble?"

Yang Meng smiled: "No one can say it well! What I said is too humble. You are a billionaire and you have to live like a beggar? That's not humility, that's a slave to the money. Let me tell you a story?"

"Oh, okay!" Ona nodded.

Yang Meng said: "The ancient book in the Han Dynasty called "Shan Hai Jing", which records a 'gent country', saying that whether it is the ruler or the common people in this country, they are all dressed and elegant, kind-hearted, polite, never argue with others, and be humble when walking. Even the tigers in their country are influenced by them and do not eat people or even become good partners for people to use. It is said that when they do business, sellers sell the best goods and collect the least money, while buyers try their best to pay extra money to get inferior goods, and it takes half a day to make a transaction. Ona, do you think such a world is really good?"

Ona shook her head desperately: "That must be bad! It's very similar to "Utopia" written by Thomas Moore."

Nowadays, people know that "utopia" represents "a good place in the dream place". In fact, the "utopia" in the mouth of different scholars are different. For example, the utopia in Plato's mouth is a totalitarian country, with people divided into different levels, and even slaves. People of each level do what they should do; while the utopia in Hippodamus's mouth is a country where residents are equal and without slaves; the Adamist utopia is that everyone returns to primitive society, and everyone eats fruit without clothes and does not work... The utopia in the mouth of the corrupt country Thomas Moore is very similar to the gentleman country.

Yang Meng smiled and said, "A country composed mainly of 'humility' sounds good. People compliment each other, but how can such a country develop? We are unwilling to admit it, but 'greed' is the foundation of social progress."

Long Teng glanced at the front: "Master! Stop talking! Let's turn right and arrive!"
