First, let's understand the background of the story. During the Warring States Period, Qi was a big country, and Meng Changjun was a wise prime minister of Qi. He is good at governing the country, attaches importance to talents, and is willing to recruit talents from all over the world. Feng Xuan is a talented but poor man. When he heard that Meng Changjun was recruiting talents, he came to Yumen and asked to visit.
When Feng Xuan first met Meng Changjun, he didn't come up with any special skills or gifts, but simply introduced himself. Meng Changjun generously received him and made him stay. However, in the following days, Feng Xuan didn't show any special talents. On the contrary, he lived in luxury.
Meng Changjun's housekeeper was very dissatisfied with this, thinking that Feng Xuan was an incompetent person and would only waste his master's money. However, Meng Changjun did not blame Feng Xuan, but took good care of him. This tolerant attitude deeply touched Feng Xuan.
By chance, Feng Xuan helped Meng Changjun solve a difficult problem. At that time, Yumen warehouse had some debts, but it could not be recovered for various reasons. Feng Xuan volunteered to deal with this matter, and finally succeeded in recovering all the debts. This made Meng Changjun sit up and take notice of him, and also made him more trust and rely on Feng Xuan.
With the passage of time, Feng Xuan's influence in Yumen is growing. He put forward many useful suggestions for Yumen and helped Yumen consolidate its position and power. At the same time, he also did some good things for the people and was loved by people. In the end, Feng Xuan became one of Yumen's most effective assistants, and Yumen became more prosperous because of his existence.
This story tells us that whether a person has talent or not is not the most important thing, but the most important thing is to have a persistent spirit and a keen grasp of opportunities. Although Feng Xuan was born in poverty, he was not discouraged, but bravely pursued his dreams and goals. When he meets an opportunity, he can seize it without hesitation and give full play to his talents.
At the same time, he can treat others sincerely and kindly, thus gaining the trust and support of others. These are the qualities and spirits that we should learn.
