About This Novel
The protagonist of "Old Zhang's Philosophy", Lao Zhang, is a rogue villain who does all kinds of evil in old Beijing. He believes in the "money-based and trinity" philosophy of life. He took a fancy to the debtor's niece and wanted to take her as a concubine, so he colluded with the wealthy gentry Sun Baye to get her. Although the plot was ultimately destroyed by the young Wang De, Lao Zhang still made money, while several other families were destroyed because of him. Although Lao She said, "I hate bad people, but bad people also have their benefits," he still mocked and criticized the morally corrupt villains mercilessly. From this, people can read the author's moral criticism and get a glimpse of Lao She's early spiritual stance.
