The productive forces determine the relations of production and what society looks like.

When a world begins, the upper echelons don't care about the life and death of the lower levels, as long as these lower levels don't give birth to geniuses for cultivation, they can ignore it.

Due to the initial non-birth control, the "royal family" of each secret realm is mostly terrifying, of course, with the distinction between large and small sects, some clans that are too far away are gradually no longer clans, but have become Chinese, and the original civilians, that is, people who have not intermarried with the royal family, ordinary people before entering the secret realm, the difficulty of turning over is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

This is not the earth, there are many opportunities, and there are many resources that change the world.

The same is true of this secret realm, in the final analysis, it is not that the high-level of the secret realm does not understand, and giving civilian resources is actually beneficial to themselves, but before coming in that year, I was too anxious, and naturally I couldn't consider the fact that the secret realm lacked metal minerals.

That's fine.

Wang Jian was dressed in tatters, holding Xuanyuan Mingyue with one hand, and Xuanyuan Mingyue leaned on her arms, her eyes closed, and occasionally showed a hateful gaze.

It is true that here, Wang Jian is not afraid of exposure, and it is Xuanyuan Mingyue who is afraid of being exposed.

The core advantage of the secret realm is that it is independent of the earth, and the absolute disadvantage of the secret realm lies in the absolute lack of resources.

In addition to the fact that the sunlight of unknown origin can bring crops, the things used in those cultivation are limited, which leads to the fact that the royal family wants to unite and suppress the careerists among the commoners, on the other hand, the competition for resources between each other may not be bloody on the surface, but it is definitely not harmonious.

This is Wang Jian's chance.

Wang Jian restrained his body and slowly walked into this hall, as he said before, any civilization should obey the economy, and the economy is universal.

Front-store and back-spinning is one of the most economical business layouts.

Of course, it is still mainly about sitting and eating, and Wang Jian guesses that this is a matter of culture and resources.

At this time, it was not a meal, no one was eating, but the cleaning was quite clean, Wang Jian speculated that this was because human resources were cheap here.

"Who, is this where you're coming to eat!"

Wang Jian's dress is too low-key, he looks like an ordinary force, anyway, he is the kind of low-end population.

"Boss, I'm here to negotiate a deal. ”

"Go away, I don't need to have a guy in the store, and I don't need a guarantor!"

"You misunderstood, I didn't want to be a guy in the store, I used to help cook in Fujiang Hou Ye's house, Hou Ye was transferred to Beishan, I didn't take all the people in the house, I wanted to stay and take care of my mother, so I didn't leave, but when I was in the house, I learned a little craft, and I knew some secret methods of roasting chicken, and the output was not much, I want to ask, can you try to sell it here." ”

This shop is actually not big, and it can't be compared with the shops with a lot of background in the city, that is, it can mainly serve meat, which is really rare in this world, so it is famous.

Beishan and Fujiang Marquis Mansion are naturally a mountain and a nobleman in the secret realm, among which Fujiang Hou is a title that has been in the secret realm since the founding of the country, which is quite noble.

After all, to boost morale, the resumption of the river, the sea, and the mountains are all good signs.

Is there really any real ability for such a big man's family cook?

Wang Jian took out the fried chicken in the paper bag and smiled slightly.

That's the awesome thing about consumerism.

How do you distinguish between grades?

First of all, let's understand what identity is, and identity can be father, mother, and children from a family perspective, which is a typical North American family structure. So is it a family made up of blood, no, anthropologists say that culture is an important factor in forming a family. We create culture and are created by culture.

So where does culture come from, culture comes from the inheritance and subtle influence from generation to generation. This subtle influence comes not only from our parents, but also from the media propaganda.

How do humans distinguish between differences?

Everyone took off their clothes and entered the bathhouse, and no one could say that they were noble.

i.e. the class that does not engage in productive labor. It is not a natural product, but has evolved gradually with the development of productive forces.

Human society began to accumulate property in the early days through plundering and warfare to obtain the means of production, and correspondingly formed individual ownership, from which the rich and noble aristocracy sprouted.

The division of classes lies in whether or not they engage in productive labor. In other words, "those who work hard govern people, and those who work hard govern people." Later, the agency leisure class was derived, that is, some laborers in the non-leisure class were attached to the native leisure class and became a group that displayed its status and represented part of its leisure and consumption functions. Their existence means that not only can their masters not only do not produce, but also their servants who are not engaged in production and replace consumption in captivity. This can be regarded as the chain of contempt of the idle class, that is, the idle class with the agency leisure class, the original leisure class, the agency leisure class, and the non-idle class.

The distinction between misappropriation and servitude is a discriminatory distinction in business. A class of businesses that occupy an intrusion is honorable, honorable, and noble, while other businesses that do not contain elements of encroachment, especially those that contain servility or subservience, are disrespectable, self-examining, and undignified...... Anything obtained by means other than looting, the opposite is true, and there is a man with status who is dismissive. For the same reason, labour services related to productive work or personal services are similarly resented. Activities such as art, athletic competitions, and hunting are noble, while productive labor is menial.

The aristocracy demonstrated their financial resources through "conspicuous consumption" and "conspicuous leisure", among which etiquette and scholarship belonged. Noble women had to change their clothes N times a day, they had to wear hats and gloves in public, there were strict rules on the food and amount of food for dinner, and there were different levels of servants among them. If a nobleman does not live up to the above terms, he will be despised by the rest of his own class. All these facts prove that the aristocracy not only did not produce, but also had a proxy leisure class such as noblewomen and slaves who provided personal services. Not only do they consume much more than what is necessary for basic subsistence, but they also have to be goods that have been approved by etiquette. Whether it is a waste of time and energy (such as etiquette) or a waste of goods and money (such as living in a mansion and consuming luxury goods), the ultimate goal of the leisure class is to compare wealth and gain reputation, and then prove its social status as an idle class, and instill conspicuous consumption and conspicuous leisure as a social norm to the lower classes.

The reason why the two broad principles of conspicuous consumption and exemption from labor can affect the development of culture is that, on the one hand, it controls the growth of the system by guiding people's habits of thought, and on the other hand, it retains the convenience and beneficial human characteristics of life under certain leisure class structures, and thus controls the real temperament of society. This means that when the habits of the idle class become the norm of society, society as a whole creates a large debt for goods that are not needed, such as etiquette and profligacy. Under this norm, the non-leisure class is in a state of greed and misery for these commodities.

Our lives are too short, and we have to live more "worthwhile" than others.

Many people regard jewelry as a sign that distinguishes themselves from other groups of people, many people regard BMW as a sign that distinguishes themselves from other groups of people, many people regard bags as a sign that distinguishes themselves from other groups of people, many people regard having a beautiful and sexy lover as a sign that distinguishes themselves from other groups of people, and many people regard living in high-end communities as a sign that distinguishes them from other groups of people.

Feelings, lifestyles, quality of life, ideals, and other information that seem tasteful and highly acceptable will make you fall into the trap of consumerism unconsciously.

It's like eating this pizza, drinking that glass of Coke, and using that mobile phone, you are not the factory girl who works part-time.

Compared with the simple and straightforward consumerism of the past, the hole of consumerism is now digging. In the past, it was just to persuade you to buy and buy, and it doesn't matter if you regret it or not, anyway, there are many Chinese. It's different now, it's not for you to buy, but to buy more, otherwise you won't be able to show your taste, identity label, feelings, ideals, and lifestyle, and you won't feel the fear of being dominated by the consumption trap, and you will only be immersed in the lifestyle and quality of life created by buying, buying, buying, buying. Gain great, illusory,, self-deceptive satisfaction from buying, buying, buying, and may form a kind of tuition disease, in a straightforward sentence is Uncle Benshan's line: What's wrong with fooling him, he still has to thank me?

Especially Wenqing, as long as you label the goods with traditional, retro, feelings, ingenuity, ancient methods, handmade, elegant, inheritance, light, Buddhism, etc., even if it is shoddy and vulgar, some people will pay for it, so some people say that Wenqing's money is the best to earn, followed by women, children, the elderly, and pets.

In particular, ancient methods, handicrafts, hand-made and other flickering techniques are simply overflowing. It doesn't matter if it's something you use, you're stupid and have a lot of money, and you're free, but if you dare to buy something to eat, it's a matter of IQ.

The so-called ancient handmade food, most of which insult not only your wallet but also your IQ. Spend several times the money to buy back a bunch of things that do not meet the hygiene standards, and you can bear to give them to your parents and children? Ancient methods, ancestral traditions, pure handicrafts, and traditional crafts are actually synonymous with the three no-products, and they all express a meaning, expensive. It is said that it is not expensive, but it is several times more expensive. It is several times more expensive and can bear it by gritting your teeth, but it is not safe, after all, the entrance of the thing, I really dare not eat it without a food and bathroom word. Aflatoxin, Escherichia coli, pathogenic flora, heavy metal content, pesticide residues...... It's simply an insult to food safety work. No additives, pure natural, is an insult to IQ, no additives have no shelf life, it is very easy to deteriorate, and food additives are normal food accessories, not to talk about the amount is to play hooligan.

As soon as man is born, he is faced with the fear of death and spiritual loneliness, trying to find meaning and direction for his short life. This search for the meaning of life and ultimate destiny enables the individual to pursue truth and create on his own. In this way, one gains a sense of freedom. Capital frees man, it frees man from the system of cooperatives, it allows man to stand on his own feet and try his luck. Man becomes the master of his own destiny, taking risks and profits. Personal effort can lead him to success and financial independence. Money becomes a great instrument of equality and proves that it is more powerful than birth and rank.

Mild vanity and comparison are common to all. If it is extreme, it can completely sever the positive emotional connection between all individuals and individuals - from top to bottom, each one. Individuals who lose their positive association can only develop jealousy and hostility among themselves. Jealousy and hostility towards each other, even if they love each other, cannot give each other any positive emotional experience. The mind that has not been able to have a positive emotional experience for a long time will be as barren as vegetation that has not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, and this vicious circle will lead to barrenness.

According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the so-called middle class is the social class that has not yet reached the "need for self-actualization". According to this definition, although a certain amount of wealth is required to achieve physiological needs, security needs, emotional and respectful needs, the wealth standard of the middle class is not fixed and extremely flexible.

But the reality is that it doesn't matter whether you are "self-actualized" or not, what matters is that you have money to spend. As a result, the middle class and pseudo-middle class are caught up in the wave of consumerism and lose themselves under the "flickering" of official accounts, shopping websites, and commodity advertisements.

The middle class yearns for the good life that this class should have, but what is "supposed to have" is not in books, not in school, and parents do not understand. As a result, capital has monopolized the definition of "what should have" through the media.

Hedonism directly stimulates people's senses and mobilizes people's inner emotions, and people experience more of the pleasure of instinctive indulgence. Capitalist advanced industrial societies, with their advanced technological means, create a series of false needs that go beyond the basic survival needs of their members. At the same time, it instills the same sensual needs in all its members through commercial propaganda and advertising infiltration, and in its dominant ideology, praises those members of society who adopt an identifying attitude. Under this historical situation, people often have to directly face and accept the perceptual new world provided by society, and gradually lose the power of critical thinking in simple identification, and the affirmative and empirical way of thinking gradually occupies the mainstream of social thought.

The culture in this is called, affirmation culture.

Capitalism uses the enormous material wealth it creates to satisfy the survival needs of its members, whether real or false. This is because the capitalist mode of production reduces the rich social relations between individuals to abstract labor buying and selling relations, and the satisfaction of individual needs must depend on economic competition dominated by the law of value.

To put it simply, there are inevitably all kinds of regrets and pains in our lives.

If you don't get your desire, you're miserable, and if you get it, you're bored.
