In the Water Margin, charity is a very precious quality, as long as it is a person who is charitable and charitable, he can get the wide respect of the jianghu Haojie.
Song Jiang has the reputation of "timely rain" because of his charity, which allows him to get the respect of the jianghu Haojie wherever he goes. Chao Gai because of his charity, but also let him get the support of San Ruan and other jianghu Haojie, they have a lot of supporters in Liangshan, Chai Jin is also a kind and charitable person, helped a lot of people in distress, but also adopted a lot of disciples, why he in Liangshan, but became a lonely man.
Chai Jin was a descendant of Chai Rong of the Later Zhou Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin, the founding emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, was a general under Chai Rong and was favored by Chai Rong. After Chai Rong's death, Zhao Kuangyin took the throne of Chai Rong's son Chai Zongxun through the Chen Qiao Mutiny, but Zhao Kuangyin did not exterminate Chai's descendants, but chose to treat them kindly.
Zhao Kuangyin left a testament to let the descendants of the Zhao royal family treat the descendants of the Chai clan kindly, and also gave the descendants of the Chai clan Danshu iron coupons, so that the descendants of the Chai clan could be spared punishment even if they committed crimes. After the Chai clan's descendants reached the Chai Jin period, they had become a rich man with no worries about food and clothing. At the same time, he was not afraid of crime, so Chai Jin began to pursue spiritual things, and through charity, he befriended Jianghu Haojie and took in the victims, making him the "Meng Taster" of the Great Song Dynasty, and was praised by Jianghu Haojie, which greatly satisfied Chai Jin's vanity.
Chai Jin has helped many people and raised many doormen, but few of these doormen are Chai Jin's die-hard loyalists who are willing to follow Chai Jin to the Tang Dynasty. Lin Chong, Song Jiang, and Wu Song on Liangshan had all received the favor of Chai Jin, but they also did not think much of Chai Jin.
After Lin Chong was framed by Gao Li, when he passed by Chai Jin's mansion, he was entertained by Chai Jin, but the head of the 800,000 Forbidden Army was a low-level official. Chai Jin didn't know if Lin Chong was worth treating him with kindness, so he took a careful thought and connived at HongJiao's head to challenge Lin Chong and try Lin Chong's skills. After Lin Shock defeated the head of the Hong Sect, Chai Jin was down-to-earth, otherwise, Lin Chong's treatment might be reduced a lot.
After killing people in his hometown, Wu Song fled to Chai Jin's mansion for refuge. When he first arrived at Chai Jin's mansion, he was valued by Chai Jin, but soon, Chai Jin found that Wu Song was not famous and loved to drink and make trouble, so he did not want to see Wu Song very much. The treatment that Wu Song enjoyed in Chai JinFu was also relatively poor. On the contrary, Song Jiang is completely different, and Song Jiang has great prestige in the rivers and lakes because of the reputation of timely rain. When Song Jiang wanted to come to Chai Jin's house, before he entered the door, Chai Jin took a few bookmakers to greet Song Jiang and gave him a very high courtesy.
After arriving at Chai Jin's house, Chai Jin called more than a dozen high-status zhuangke to accompany Song Jiang to dinner, while Wu Song's status was too low, and when other zhuangkes and Chai Jin accompanied Song Jiang to dinner, Wu Song could only stay alone under the porch and roast the fire for warmth. This made Wu Song, who had a strong sense of self-esteem, feel very depressed. When Song Jiang went to the toilet, he accidentally kicked over Wu Song's fire hammer and made Wu Song look ashy, and Wu Song jumped like thunder and stood up to beat Song Jiang. The dealer behind Song Jiang hurriedly persuaded that it did not work, and after Chai came in and out, he let Song Jiang avoid a beating.
Chai Jin smiled and told Wu Song that the person in front of him was Song Oshi. Although Wu Song had never seen Song Jiang, he admired Song Jiang very much, and he worshipped him and apologized to Song Jiang. Wu Song in front of Song Jiang was very frustrated, but Song Jiang knew people very well, he knew that Wu Song was not an idle person, not only forgave Wu Song, but also took Wu Song's hand, let Wu Song enter the back room, and sat down with him to eat, giving Wu Song great respect.
After Wu Song saw that Wu Song's clothes were very worn, he took the initiative to take out 10 taels of silver to make clothes for Wu Song. Chai Jin was ashamed to see this scene, and quickly let the next person take out the best silk and make a set of clothes for Song Jiang, Wu Song and Song Qing. Although Wu Song's clothes were made by Chai in and out of people, Wu Song was only grateful to Song Jiang and not to Chai Jin. From this point of view, Song Jiang and Chai Jin's means of buying people's hearts and minds are far from the same. Song Jiang knows how to send charcoal in the snow and give people the most appropriate and appropriate help, and Chai Jin is only willing to add icing on the cake.
Subsequently, when Wu Song learned that he had not killed anyone, he wanted to go home to visit his brother. Chai Jin and Wu Song got along for a year, Chai Jin was just in front of the door, politely sent him, Song Jiang and Wu Song, only got along for a few days, Song Jiang sent Wu Song ten miles away, and also took out ten pieces of silver to Wu Song for coiling, which made Wu Song extremely grateful, and Song Jiang worshiped as a brother, treating Song Jiang as a brother.
Chai Jin did not give others less favors and help, but his favor is to pursue a kind of grace of false name, and did not invest in real feelings in it, so it is difficult to get the gratitude of others, the gratitude in the eyes of the heart, Song Jiang gave to others, although small favors, but it is sincere and sincere, moved by feelings, so everyone respects and appreciates Song Jiang, treats him as a brother, and is very loyal to Song Jiang.
Because of this, Song Jiang had many followers on Liangshan, and Chai Jin did not treat people with sincerity, and also liked to divide the doormen into three, six, nine and so on. The doormen who had received his favor naturally did not thank Chai Jin from the bottom of their hearts. After Chai Jin was killed, they were unwilling to come forward and risked to save Chai Jin, and after Chai entered Liangshan, they did not want to follow Chai jin to become a thief, so Chai Jin became a lonely man in Liangshan.
