少女的率真
好似蓝色的湖水
让我望见真理的深邃

The original：
Maiden, your simplicity, like the blueness of the lake, reveals your depth of truth.

Stray Birds, written by Rabindranath Tagore, is a collection of poetic aphorisms, remarkable for their simplicity but resonating deeply with fundamental truths of being, life, love, and the marvels of our universe. I translate a poem form Stray Birds to Chinese every day, hope more and more people get to know Tagore’s great work.

当我无所事事时，就让我无所事事
请不要打扰我，就让我沉入深深的宁静
一如黄昏时海浪沉寂的海岸

The original：
Let my doing nothing when I have nothing to do become untroubled in its depth of peace like the evening in the seashore when the water is silent.

前几天读完了《中国历代首富传》，忘记记下来了，今天补在这里。

这次读的是纸质书。

书是2017年在新华书店买的，那时候正计划多读一些人物传记。在书店翻找的时候，发现这本书里有提到沈万三。作为古龙的书迷，我一直以为沈万三只是一个虚构的小说人物，看了这本书才知道，这是真有其人。不过富的不是沈万三一人，而是沈家这个大家族。

沈万三是我买这本书的理由，不过看完全书，我最敬佩的人物，是陶朱公。

范少伯就是范蠡，范蠡就是鸱夷子皮，子皮就是陶朱公。一个人活出了四个人的人生，真正是彪悍的人生不需要解释。

此外，此人数次巨富之后，都散尽家财。因为陶朱公信奉的是财富在人世间的流动，他认为让财富在自己一个人手上积累是逆天而行。偏偏就是数次散尽家财之后，他又能很快累金数万，再次富甲天下。他的思考的高度，他强悍的能力，让人敬佩不已。

最后，此人成为巨富，更多是依靠对经济世界的透彻理解，并不投机，并不依附权贵，并不卖官鬻爵，并不贪赃枉法。这和投机的吕不韦；依附权贵或者自己本身就是氏族权贵的石崇、梁冀；贪赃枉法的和珅、秦桧；卖官鬻爵的刘瑾真是天差地别。

书中叙述历代富豪，上起春秋战国的陶朱公，最后以近代实业家张骞作结，通读全书，除了看到了这些历史上巨富的人生轨迹，更是看到了朝代的更替，社会的不断变革。这是此书又一个可贵的地方。

最后，如果有朋友也在读，或者要读此书，请一定记得要读此书的后记。

这篇后记只有两页，但是却是对全书内容的总结，也是对中国商业社会的一个浓缩版的概括。至少对我来说，读完全书之后产生的想法，大都已经被作者总结在这篇短短的后记之中了。
