Mohist Tang

Chapter 13



"Catfish effect"

With the passage of time, the word became more and more popular in Chang\'an city.

No one doubts whether Merton is cheating, because the story of catfish effect is very realistic. Although some people in Changan have heard of sardine, they do not interfere with the understanding of catfish effect.

Han people are not short of smart people, especially some superiors, who often use the means of catfish effect, but they have not summarized it in such detail before. Now I suddenly realized the catfish effect.

In the pan restaurant, everyone was sitting around a middle-aged man who looked like a man.

Sardine meet the eye everywhere. Fishermen are the upper ones. They control the fate of all. Sardines are the servants of our common people. They serve their fishermen silently, and do not seek to advance, but they are not enterprising.

"The catfish is the talent airborne by the superior. It is ambitious, means and aggressive. If the superior is not satisfied with the subordinate, or wants the subordinate to do more work, but is unwilling to pay, he will put in a catfish. The catfish is cruel to the inferior and peeps at its position to the superior. These servants have to work hard for the fisherman and look forward to not being eaten by the catfish People who are higher than this catfish are even more conscientious, lest they be replaced by this catfish. "Everyone talks about the broad and penetrating analysis of the catfish effect.

"But be careful to be a catfish. Although catfish can be superior, they may also be jointly besieged by people. What\'s more, we should guard against the fisherman\'s remorse and kill the donkey, and kill the catfish to calm the anger of the public." the analysis pointed to the point.

"Yes! What sun Ju Ren said is very true, but the fisherman should also guard against catfish. If the catfish grows accidentally, it is likely to bite the fisherman."

"Lower...................."

Soon, everyone in the restaurant participated in the analysis of the catfish effect. The more they analyzed, the more they felt that they had profound knowledge, and the more they worshipped Mozi.

In this way, Merton\'s plan to become famous as Mozi was successfully implemented.

"By the way, has anyone studied the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village?" sun Juren suddenly said.

"No, it\'s no use putting catfish in. The top of the catfish lives half an hour longer than usual." someone shook his head and said.

"Yes, yes, I also tried. There is no much progress at all. I can live for half an hour." another man also answered.

Sun Juren\'s eyes lit up and said, "that\'s right. If you can live for half an hour, it shows that the method is right. The catfish effect is really effective, but you don\'t know the method yet. You may succeed by experimenting more times."

The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn\'t dare to come up when he saw that he was talking about the catfish effect just now, because he often did so. Now he heard talking about the secret recipe of live fish, so he went forward to add a pot of wine to the people and said with a smile: "You think so, and everyone thinks so. Now almost all the catfish in Chang\'an City have been bought. Now the price of catfish has increased five times. Now those who sell fish make more money than I open a restaurant."

"Yes, yes, there must be some secrets in Mojia village, and the secret skills of live fish will not be so simple." the waiter in the neighboring village quickly agreed with the shopkeeper.

The bachelor looked at the man and sneered: "it\'s needless to say. Mojia village said before that the secret technology of live fish was born out of the catfish effect. If we can easily crack it, how can Mojia village say it in public."

The restaurant shopkeeper nodded in deep thought. If others asked him about the secret of the restaurant, he would not easily tell others, let alone the living fish secret skill of making a lot of money.

The man suddenly gloated and said, "I don\'t think the secret skills of live fish in Mojia village will be kept secret for long. Shopkeeper Wang on the street has offered a reward. If anyone can crack the secret skills of live fish, he will offer a reward of 500."

The shopkeeper of the restaurant was surprised and said, "I didn\'t expect that Wang tie Rooster plucked his hair and could make five hundred passes."

Suddenly, the whole restaurant burst into laughter. It was obvious that shopkeeper Wang had a reputation for being stingy.

Someone shouted, "isn\'t that right? Shopkeeper Wang was the largest fish merchant in Chang\'an City before. If he gets the secret skill of live fish, he will earn far more than 500 yuan."

The shopkeeper of the restaurant said, "I\'ll tell you! How can this Iron Rooster lose money?"

"If you want me to say, this time Chi Zhiyong, a fool at the city gate, targeted the Mojia village. It is likely that shopkeeper Wang ordered it." someone in the restaurant whispered.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant quickly said in a panic, "you can\'t talk nonsense."

The crowd in the restaurant sneered and didn\'t talk about it. Obviously, they all set the object of suspicion on shopkeeper Wang. However, shopkeeper Wang is usually very strong and has a background. They don\'t want to offend him for nothing.

Wangjia fish shop.

Shopkeeper Wang looked at the ten fish basins in front of him with a livid face. There was a layer of dead fish floating in each basin.

"Why didn\'t it succeed? Didn\'t Mojia village say that releasing a catfish can stimulate the fish to survive?" shopkeeper Wang roared with an iron face.

Guys, keep their heads down one by one and don\'t dare to offend shopkeeper Wang who is angry and crazy at this time.

"Maybe it\'s fish that\'s wrong," said Mohist village, "sardine, and we put grass carp and Bighead." the account behind the manager\'s desk was comforting.

"Yes, Zhao Zhangfang is right. There must be some secrets in Mojia village, but we haven\'t found them yet." another man quickly excused himself.

Sardine, with a frown and a roar, said, "of course, there are secrets. Otherwise, what do I ask you to do? We sell grass carp, not what sardines have never heard of, but of course, let grass carp survive.

"I don\'t believe how long the secret of Mojia village can be kept. Now is there anyone in Chang\'an city offering a reward to crack the secret skill of live fish." shopkeeper Wang was furious and turned to Zhao\'s accounting room

Zhao Zhang room shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "others are like us. Although putting in catfish can make the fish live half an hour longer, it is still inevitable to die."

Shopkeeper Wang was disappointed and said, "how long can they let the fish live in Mojia village?"

Zhao Jingzhong said, "as far as we know, the last fish sale in Mojia village is in the future. If Mojia village catches the fish from time to time, Mojia village can keep the fish alive for at least five hours."

"Five hours." shopkeeper Wang\'s face slowed slightly.

"But!" Zhao\'s accountant didn\'t let shopkeeper Wang rejoice for too long. "As far as we know, after the city gate incident, Mojia village is digging a big fish pond with fresh fish shop to sell fish for a long time. According to my calculation, Mojia village is likely to keep fish alive in the pond.

"How is that possible?" shopkeeper Wang exclaimed.

"Very likely!" Zhao Zhang room nodded heavily.

The whole Wangjia fish shop suddenly fell silent.

"You must get the secret recipe of live fish."

For a long time, shopkeeper Wang said, with a trace of cold in his voice.
