It's so much money that even God would
change his mind(錢可通神)
In the Tang Dynasty of China, there was a
famous minister whose name was (Zhang Yanshang).
One of his stories recorded in the history
books.
In AD 755, he was 30 years old.
From this year, the Tang Dynasty had a
rebellion that lasted for 8 years. From then on, the Tang Dynasty changed from
prosperity to decline.
After that, the political atmosphere of the
central government of the Tang Dynasty was very poor, and many corrupt
officials formed a strong corruption structure. Local forces in various places
are gradually breaking away from the control of the central government.
At the age of 60, under the balance of
power, he was appointed a prime minister with no real power.
He took office with enthusiasm.
He locked up a very important and
high-profile case.
The case has been delayed for a long time,
but it has never been closed.
After he took office, he called all
judicial officers together.
I have decided to reopen the investigation
into this case, and I have given you ten days to submit a preliminary report.
The next morning, when he got to the
office, he saw a small note on his desk that read.
I'll give you 30,000 strings of copper
coins, please don't investigate this case. This was a very large sum of money
at the time.
He angrily called all the judicial officers
again.
He said.
It's an insult to the justice system that
someone sneaked into my office and put this note. We need to strengthen security.
No one is allowed in my office.
We must find out the truth of this case.
When he arrived at the office on the third
day, he again saw a small note on the table with the words written on it.
Fifty thousand strings of copper coins.
He was so angry that he called all the
judicial officers.
He punished the security guards for not
finding anyone infiltrating his office.
He ordered again, and he asked all
personnel to quickly check all information and preserve all evidence.
He didn't sleep well that night.
On the fourth day, when he arrived at the
office, he saw a small note on his desk with the words written on it.
One hundred thousand strings of copper
coins..
He didn't call all the judicial personnel
this time, and he sat down in his chair slumped.
He knew that this dark force was too huge
to be shaken by his own power.
He did not once again ask all judicial
officers to step up their investigation of the case.
He later recalled the incident, he told his
friend.
One hundred thousand dollars, this is
already an astronomical figure. If God receives so much money, he will change
his mind.
I have to accept reality.
If I had continued to investigate this
case, I would have been dead long ago.
This idiom means that money is very useful,
with money, anything can be done.
Dear friends, what are your feelings or
thoughts after listening to this story?
If you were him, would you choose to
continue the investigation or stop the investigation like him? What if you were
faced with the injustices in your life?
I hope this story will give you something
new to gain.

would change his mind)
中國的唐王朝，有一個著名的大臣，他的名字叫做(張延賞)。
歷史書上記錄的一個他的故事。
西元755年，他30歲時。
從這一年開始，唐王朝發生了一場長達8年的叛亂。唐王朝從此由興盛轉變成衰亡。
在此之後，唐王朝中央政府政治風氣非常的差，許多貪官汙吏形成強大的貪腐結構。各地的地方勢力也逐漸脫離中央政府的控制。
他60歲的時候，在各方勢力平衡下，他被任命為一個沒有實際權力的宰相。
他上任懷抱著熱情。
他鎖定了一件很重大並且眾所矚目的案件。
這件案子已經延宕多時，但一直沒有結案。
他到任後便召集所有的司法人員並。
我決定重啟調查這個案件，我限定你們十天內就要提出一份初步報告。
隔天早上，當他到辦公室時，他看見他的辦公桌上放著一張小紙條，上面寫著。
給你三萬串銅錢，請您不要清查這個案件。這在當時是非常大的一筆錢。
他很生氣地再次召集所有司法人員。
他說。
竟然有人潛入我的辦公室並且放了這張字條，這是對司法體系的侮辱。我們要加強保安。我的辦公室不准任何人進入。
我們必須查出這個案子的真相。
第三天他到辦公室時，他又看見桌子上放著一張小紙條，上面寫著。
五萬串銅錢。
他非常的生氣，他召集所有司法人員。
他懲罰了保全的警衛，因為他們竟然沒有發現有人潛入他的辦公室。
他再次下令，他要求所有人員趕緊清查所有的資料與保全所有的證據。
當天晚上他沒睡好。
第四天，當他到辦公室時，他竟然又看見自已的辦公桌上放著一張小紙條，上面寫著。
十萬。
他這次沒有召集所有司法人員，他頹然的坐在自已的椅子上。
他知道這股黑暗的勢力太龐大了，以他一個人的力量目前無法撼動。
他沒有再次要求所有的司法人員加緊清查這個案。
他後來回憶此事，他對他的朋友說。
十萬貫錢，這已經是個天文數字了，如果神收到這麼多錢都會改變心意啊。
我不得不接受現實。
我如果當時繼續調查這個案件，那麼我應該早就已經死了吧。
這一句成語的意思是金錢效用極大，有了錢，什麼事都能辦得到。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。
如果你是他，你會選擇繼續調查還是跟他一樣停止調查呢?你如果面對人生遭遇的不公義呢?
我希望這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
