| Summary | "常言道" by Luopodaoren is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The book explores the human condition, particularly focusing on the pursuit of wealth and its implications on morality and relationships. The narrative involves characters like 時伯濟, who sets out on a journey to seek fortune but finds himself entangled in complex social dynamics and moral dilemmas. The opening of the story introduces the philosophical underpinnings of the narrative, addressing themes of desire, gain, and loss, as well as the interconnectedness of human experience. The protagonist, 時伯濟, is portrayed contemplating the meaning of wealth and its transient nature, questioning societal values while setting out on a journey that will eventually lead him to encounter various characters in a world governed by materialism and ambition. The initial verses and reflections establish a contemplative tone, suggesting that the characters' lives will be shaped by their choices related to wealth and morality.
