"We humans live on the earth, and everything we depend on to survive depends on this planet, and the earth provides all the resources for us human beings to live......"

"Air, sunlight and water, which are resources that can be enjoyed by human beings for free, and all other life-sustaining resources require our efforts to obtain ...... from the earth"

"But you must remember a big premise, that is, resources are destined to be limited, destined to be insufficiently distributed, and destined to be unevenly distributed!"

"I say important things three times, and you must remember that resources are limited, limited, and limited!"

"Renewable resources such as food, cotton, wool, meat...... These seem to be produced every year, and they are eternal, but don't forget that annual production constrains human beings, so from this point of view, there is also a fierce competition for renewable resources......"

"As for non-renewable resources, not to mention, gold, silver, copper, iron, and coal and oil, you dig a little less of these things, the Chinese use a little more, the Europeans use a little less, this is the same law of iron!"

"So everything is summed up in one sentence, you can print it again when the money is gone, but when the resources are used up, you can't replenish as much as you want, this is an eternal and unsolvable contradiction between human beings and the earth!"

"So your inference is not valid, because the Europeans have already studied this issue thoroughly! Their hearts are full of self-interest, and any sign of threatening their national interests will be strangled to death!"

"How big is China's population base? If these people reach the standard of living of ordinary people in Britain, how much grain and how much meat, how much gold, silver, copper, iron, coal, and oil do they need? This is not a very small part of the amount you mentioned, it is a terrifying astronomical amount, and this large-scale consumption of resources is destined to move the meat on the plates of Europeans!"

"Zaichun, let me ask you, don't you want the people of the Great Qing Kingdom to live a prosperous life like the people of Europe?"

"Yes, I've always dreamed of it!" Jae Soon's eyes sparkled.

"Then you have to keep in mind that if you want the people to live a good life, it is not shouting slogans but the rice and white noodles in the people's bowls, the diced chicken thighs and meat on the plates, and all the artillery warships that protect the safety of the people......"

"And none of these things fell from the sky for nothing, everything needs all kinds of renewable or non-renewable resources to maintain! This goes back to the problem I just said, the distribution of resources is the root of all conflicts in the human world!"

Jae-chun nodded silently, the master's words shocked him, the world is so hypocritical, the illusion curtain created by Western politicians with friendly and flowery rhetoric has only opened a small corner, and the cruelty and bloodshed behind it are so thrilling.

That is to say...... Does the master mean that as long as I am strong in the Qing Dynasty, Britain will definitely be my enemy?"

Xiao Letian nodded silently, "It's not that if the Qing Dynasty is strong, it will be your enemy, but that if the Qing Dynasty wants to be strong, it must control the earth's resources more, which is the fundamental reason why they have to be enemies......"

There was silence in the cabin at the moment, and everyone was thinking about this heavy topic.

Xiao Letian suddenly drifted to his previous life, which was an era when China had entered an era of great material abundance, and China's wealth out of the quagmire of the late Qing Dynasty was unimaginable to people in this era.

But there are hidden dangers under the prosperity, the continuous expansion of national strength, and the rising ** of the people make China have a fanatical thirst for resources.

At that time, almost whatever Chinese needed, the price would rise, oil, steel, nonferrous metals, grain, ...... The huge appetite of the Chinese frightened the whole world.

Fortunately, China at that time already had enough military strength for self-defense, which ensured the security of its own country, otherwise it would have rushed to grab resources in the international arena like China, and the war would have started long ago.

It was at that time that a strange remark appeared in society, and many people with ulterior motives tried every means to confuse the thinking of the Chinese.

They cut off the national feelings of the Chinese people, create internal contradictions, and divert the root cause of all unhappiness in life. One of the most classic accusations is that China's internal distribution is irrational and unfair.

It is true that there were indeed unreasonable and unfair distribution in China at that time, but Ya Na can't avoid the important and light?

Europe and the United States occupy more than half of the world's resources, especially represented by oil resources, which are the cornerstone of the world economy after World War II.

The bulk of these resources are all controlled by Europe and the United States, while other countries can only get a little leftovers, and then blame others for unfair internal distribution?

Please, if there are not enough resources, how do you want to divide them fairly? If you want to distribute fairly, do you have to ensure that there are things to share? Isn't this a truth that even elementary school students understand?

If you want the whole class to eat an apple, you have to have enough apples to share, right?

Can't you occupy a basket by one person, and then accuse us of eating one apple per class, and say that we are unfairly distributed, right?

In a thousand words, 'Anyone who only accuses others of unfair distribution and does not give away real money is a hooligan!'

European and American politicians are howling and screaming to blame all kinds of problems in Chinese society, and all the accusations are concentrated in one sentence: the distribution of your girl is unreasonable, and the people live a poor life because you don't have a good one, and some people eat more and occupy more.

Indeed, we have to admit that this situation exists, but when you blame China, when you put on the role of savior and world policeman, should you come up with something to help a bunch of poor people in China?

If nothing else, how about giving China an extra 5 percent of the oil quota you control every year? How about using the price of your pre-Gulf War futures contracts instead of giving it away for nothing?

There are also gold, silver, and non-ferrous metals that China urgently needs...... How about a 10% share of your pot?

What? You don't give it, you don't give it to you, what nonsense is it at me?

It's still the same sentence just now, one of you occupies a basket of apples, so don't accuse us poor students of eating an apple in a class.

Xiao Lotian sighed and said, "Don't believe the smiling faces of those hypocrites, when they point fingers at your political system and put forward various opinions, please think about it, whether they really give up resources to you!"

"Don't talk about money, sometimes money in this world may not be able to buy the resources urgently needed for national development, only the two legs of strong force and economy walking together is the fundamental guarantee of national security!"

Speaking of this, Xiang Ying suddenly raised his head and said in confusion, "I admit that what the master said is indeed very right, but I still have two questions in my heart, please ask the master to solve my doubts......"

"First of all, resources are divided into renewable and non-renewable, of which renewable resources are familiar to us with food, cotton and other animal and plant resources...... In other words, the total amount can be increased, and if the total amount can be increased, why do you still say that there must be a conflict?"

"Then there are the unproductive resources, gold, silver, copper, iron, all kinds of black and non-ferrous metals, as well as the oil resources that the Führer has always cared about...... Indeed, using a little less of these things is definitely in a general trend of reducing consumption in the long run!"

"But this time period will definitely be very long, in a relatively short period of time, can't we take advantage of the improvement of science and technology and the way to increase production capacity, to increase the total amount?"

"Since the total amount can be increased, can this fundamental conflict not be avoided?"
