《鲁滨逊漂流记》的作者丹尼尔·笛福说:我骑马走遍了英国,发现人生的主要工作乃是赚钱。在笛福的笔下,商人是最受推崇的阶层。他认为,商人是所有阶层中最聪慧、最能干的人,是权利、学问和财富的支柱与促进者,“我们的商人就是君王。”鲁滨逊的形象之所以一直流行不衰,是因为他是英国功利主义商人的缩影,鲁滨逊算帐要算到最后三个便士的形象,正是对英国商人的写照。
Daniel Defoe, author of The Robinson Crusoe, said: “I rode all over Britain and found that my main job is to make money. In Defoe’s pen, businessmen are the most respected class. He believes that businessmen are the most intelligent and capable people of all classes and the pillars and promoters of rights, learning, and wealth. “Our businessmen are kings.” The reason why Robinson’s image has always been popular is because He is the epitome of British utilitarian merchants. Robinson’s account counts as the last three pennies, which is a portrait of a British businessman.
