Four. Loyalty
Confucius himself advocated obedience to his
superiors for moral correctness rather than the
idea that 'it might do justice', so devotion is not

According to Confucius, "The monarch must
appoint ministers according to their due.
He obediently serves the prince."

5. Store Loyalty
According to Confucian philosophy, filial piety is
the virtue of honoring one's parents and
ancestors. The basis of Confucian role ethics is
filial piety. 6. Respect
This attitude is supported by the idea of respect
in a professional environment. According to
Confucius, we should imitate Chinese business
culture and treat everyone doing business with
respect. Otherwise, what distinguishes humans
from other animals?
