Chapter 1307

There is no suspense, when Confucianism finally agreed to Merton's proposal to change the Tang costume, a Tang version of Hufu, riding and shooting, and jointly launch the Tang costume.

Confucianism and Mohism have great energy. Together, the two major garment workshops in Chang'an City worked overnight to promote Tang costumes to the market in the shortest time.

As soon as it was launched, it immediately caused a sensation. The convenience of ink clothes combined with Confucian etiquette was a combination of Wang fried. The Tang costume suddenly attracted everyone's attention. The Confucian children no longer resisted, especially the scholars who bought one after another, and were proud to wear the Tang costume.

The Mohist school is more direct, directly positioning the Tang costume as the official costume of the Mohist school. It is necessary to pass on the Tang costume on some formal occasions, regardless of the Confucian etiquette on the Tang costume, which makes the Confucianism believe that Merton is sincere cooperation.

For ordinary people, it was an uproar. No one thought that the end of the dispute between Confucian clothing and ink clothing was the integration of the two kinds of clothing.

In addition to representing the etiquette of Confucianism, Tang costume also has the most important significance, that is, equality. People from dignitaries to ordinary people can wear Tang costume, which further stimulates the sales of Tang costume.

"Shifu's personal action is too bullying." Wu Meiniang murmured discontentedly in the ink house. She thought her down jacket was already an invincible existence in the clothing industry. She didn't expect that it was Shifu who beat herself. As soon as Tang costume came out, she immediately surpassed the down jacket in sales.

However, Wu Meiniang said so without worry, because the cold winter is coming, her down jacket will continue to sell well.

Merton shook his head and said, "the dispute between Confucian clothes and Mohist clothes is not good for Mohism and Confucianism. Being a teacher just wants to end this senseless dispute as soon as possible."

"But it's too cheap. They didn't do anything, so they sat down and reaped the benefits." Wu Meiniang snorted coldly. In her opinion, the victory of the Mohist School in the clothing dispute is settled, and there's no need for Confucianism to take a share.

"The peaceful rise of Mohism is not afraid of Confucianism, but there is no need to force Confucianism to a dead end. Now that the Tang costume is out, Confucianism has a step down," Merton explained.

Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "although there are Tang costumes, I'm afraid Confucianism will think this is an alliance under the city and may not appreciate it."

Merton snorted coldly and said, "I don't appreciate it. It's not because of you that I am a teacher!"

Wu Meiniang was weak and said, "I haven't been in trouble recently. I'm all in the down jacket workshop!"

"I didn't get into trouble. Your down jacket not only changed the pattern of Confucian and ink clothes, but also changed the pattern of Confucian and ink clothes. Now, although the Confucian and ink families haven't torn their faces, I'm afraid it's difficult to return to the previous friendly situation." Merton's face is dignified. The honeymoon period of Confucian and ink, which he has worked hard to manage, is directly damaged by the competition for clothes.

Wu Meiniang was at a loss: "master, what should I do?"

Merton solemnly said, "I called you here as a teacher to tell you the position and principles of Mohism under the new relationship between Confucianism and Mohism."

"Please make it clear," Wu Meiniang said respectfully.

"Nowadays, with the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Tang Dynasty, the contradiction between Confucianism and Mohism has become irreconcilable. Let alone the ancient gratitude and resentment between Confucianism and Mohism, it is that now Mohism is better than Confucianism in clothing, which has aroused the vigilance of Confucianism and is unwilling to lose its status of exclusive respect for Confucianism. If Mohism wants to revive, it is destined to cause contradictions," said Merton.

In the past, although there was a threat to the revival of Mohism, Confucianism was still the mainstream and did not pay attention to Mohism. Now Confucianism has tasted the first defeat in clothing. Mohist threat theory has become a reality, and Confucianism will naturally change its attitude towards Mohism.

Wu Meiniang sneered: "there are specialties in the art industry. The rise of ink clothing benefits from the progress of ink technology. Confucianism clothing has been the same for thousands of years. Why don't you reflect on yourself and don't want to make progress."

"It's not important to wear ink and Confucianism. What Confucianism really values is the first defeat, which has always been respected by Confucianism. Confucianism can't accept it anyway. Fortunately, he used Tang costumes to resolve the dispute for the teacher, otherwise the Confucianism and Mohism will completely quarrel." Merton said directly.

Wu Mei Niang frowned and said, "but the power of Mohism is not enough to compete with Confucianism! So master is going to tell disciple how to go next."

Merton nodded. "Although Confucianism is dissatisfied with the rise of Mohism, 100 schools have their own advantages. If Mohism wants to revive, its foundation still lies in Mohism technology. This cannot be changed. Only Mohism can achieve Mohism revival by constantly improving itself."

"I understand!" Wu Meiniang was taught.

"As for Confucianism, there is no need to be afraid. Now the Tang Dynasty is in its heyday, when there is a lot of waste waiting to flourish, and when we need Mohism. In such an environment, Confucianism can't rashly attack Mohism, otherwise Confucianism can't pass even your majesty. Should we compete or cooperate with Mohism?" Merton sneered.

"Both competition and cooperation!" Wu Meiniang could not help realizing that this is what Merton said about the principle of treating Confucianism.

"Also, there are hundreds of other schools in Guangjiao. The imperial court has respected Confucianism for hundreds of years, and the other 100 schools have long been dissatisfied with it. Confucianism can deal with one Mohist school, but can't deal with the other 100 schools. The combination of Mohist School and other 100 schools is enough to make Confucianism avoid rats." Merton smiled. He came from later generations and knows the diplomatic tactics of rabbit state like the back of his hand, It can be said that it is appropriate to use it on the contention of a hundred schools of thought.

"I understand! Over time, the Mohist school may not be able to replace Confucianism." Wu Meiniang said excitedly, and was immediately full of confidence in the future of the Mohist school.

Merton shook his head and said, "then you are wrong. The purpose of Mohism is not to replace Confucianism, but to coexist with Confucianism and Mohism. The trend in the future is to cultivate a hundred schools of thought. The era of a single family will completely disappear, and the contention of a hundred schools of thought is the king."

Confucianism and Mohism have their own fields, which is the fundamental reason why Mohism can still be revived after thousands of years of silence. Even if Mohism surpasses Confucianism in the future, it is impossible to replace Confucianism.

"Yes, master!" at this point, Wu Meiniang really understood the future route of Mohism, and her heart was a little more confident.

Suddenly, Wu Meiniang hesitated and said, "master, am I really the mistress of NvZhu Chang? Master, that's how she instructed her disciples."

She saw that Merton gave the future plans of Mohism one by one without hiding anything. In addition, it was said that she was the female owner of Chang, who had already been distressed in her heart, so she couldn't help asking.

Merton suddenly laughed and said, "the so-called female Lord Chang is just the prophecy that the Yin and Yang family framed you. There is no good luck in the world. Do you really think that your achievements today are due to the female Lord's good luck, or that the down jacket you make can't be made except you."

Wu Meiniang shook her head. Every ink technique she developed was experimented day and night. Since she can do experiments, naturally others can do experiments.

"Since everyone can do it, are they all women? You can achieve this not because you are a woman, on the one hand, because of your efforts, on the other hand, because you stand on the shoulders of Mohist sages, and sooner or later, Mohist descendants will stand on your shoulders and see further," Merton warned.

"I understand!" Wu Meiniang said relieved.

Merton nodded. Maybe Wu Meiniang in her previous life could achieve the success of the female master because of various coincidences, but in this life, when he accepted Wu Meiniang as an apprentice, Wu Meiniang's life path had changed and it was impossible to copy the miracle of her previous life.

However, Merton believes that Wu Meiniang's achievements are not inferior to previous lives. A female emperor has only a temporary impact on China, while the revival of Mohism will affect China for thousands of generations.
