The butterfly effect refers to the fact that in a dynamical system, a small change in the initial conditions can lead to a long-term huge chain reaction of the whole system. There are fixed numbers and variables in the development of any thing, and the development trajectory of things in the development process has laws to follow, and there are also unpredictable "variables", which are often counterproductive, and a small change can affect the development of things, indicating that the development of things is complex.

If Li Nan was willing to be a small jailer in Yanggu County for the rest of his life, then he, a soul from later generations, might not have much influence on the Great Song Dynasty, but this is not the case.

If you want to do things, you must have money, Li Nan's first pot of gold came from the hands of many bandits and bandits in the Great Song Dynasty, the funds in the middle period came from high-ranking officials and wealthy merchants, and later relied on the sale of materials from Jiaozhi, Guangnan West Road, Champa and Dali and other places to obtain.

Speaking of the Song Dynasty, people have the impression that they are very rich, and now people will say that the Song Dynasty is rich and Song. But there was a strange phenomenon in the Song Dynasty, which was so rich, that is, the people in the Song Dynasty had the most uprisings in all dynasties.

Crimes are usually committed by individuals or small groups, while rebellions must be organized by many people.

Rebellion was a felony of killing heads in all dynasties, so it wasn't that the common people couldn't even eat, and no one would risk their lives to do such a thing, but why did the rich Song Dynasty still have people who kept rebelling?

The peasant uprisings in the history of the Song Dynasty were the most in all dynasties, and the time of the rule of the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty was 320 years, and the uprisings recorded in the history books took place 434 times, with an average of 1.3 outbreaks a year, which is the strongest frequency in all dynasties. The peasant uprisings of the Song Dynasty were never interrupted from the beginning of the founding of the country.

In the Song Dynasty, the scholar class was definitely the richest class, followed by industry and commerce, and the poorest were those who accounted for seventy or eighty or even ninety percent of the total population.

These peasants have a limited output from farming, but they have to bear the two most important taxes of the state.

In the face of Wang Anshi's kind intentions to do bad things, those officials who have high salaries but are never honest, and the artist emperor who never has enough money to spend, the peasants gave everything they could, and if they couldn't give it, they sold their houses and land, and in the end they couldn't survive, so there was only one way to rebel.

Peasants who had no land or suffered from disasters would become homeless, and the government of the Great Song Dynasty would recruit them and organize them into an army, so that there were millions of troops.

Turning the displaced people into an army, the displaced people who have food do not rebel, but this does not solve the problem, but forms a vicious circle.

In order to support more and more troops, the peace that was exchanged with money for the Liao State, the Western Xia, which always started wars, the insatiable officials and emperors, and the vast number of peasants had more and more harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they could only rebel if they could not eat......

Li Nan once played a terrible trick in order to buy officials in Tokyo City and to create a foundation in the future, that is, a Ponzi scheme.

Ponzi schemes have more victims, wider impact, deeper harm, stronger concealment, and greater social harm.

Later, the pyramid scheme in Colombia once deceived more than 2 million people, and the Madoff case defrauded a total of 60 billion US dollars.

When the Ponzi scheme appeared in the Great Song Dynasty, it quickly became popular in the city of Tokyo, and those who had been deceived with high profits in the early stage immediately became the most loyal fanatics of the scam, bringing more people into the scam.

Li Nan sent money to Cai Jing and others to buy officials, all the way to Guangnan West Road, to build an army, buy armor and war horses, all the expenses used came from Ponzi schemes, and it can be said that he almost emptied 40% of the rich families in the Great Song Dynasty.

Although Li Nan was merciful and targeted the deceived people were those wealthy officials and wealthy merchants, but when the sea merchant concocted by the Ponzi scheme disappeared, all the deceived people, after being sad and desperate, began to pass on these losses.

In the three years that Li Nan entered the world of team battles, the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes of the Great Song Dynasty were thirty percent more than before, and these were all methods that those noble officials and wealthy merchants and landlords came up with in order to make up for their losses.

The large-scale rebellion, which was supposed to occur years later, was brought forward by Li Nan's influence.

In order to solve the financial difficulties, the Song court announced that the entire 800-li water area of Liangshanbo would be taken into "public ownership", and stipulated that all the people who entered the lake to fish, harvest lotus roots, and cut cattails should be taxed heavily according to the size of the boat, and if there were any violators of the ban, they would be punished as thieves, and the poor peasants and fishermen could not afford to pay heavy taxes, and the dissatisfaction with social reality that had been accumulated in their chests for a long time finally erupted like a volcano.

Under the leadership of Song Jiang and the 36 leaders, these people took reckless risks, armed and gathered dangers, and took advantage of the easy-to-defend and difficult terrain of Liangshan Bo to block and kill the officers and soldiers who came to suppress them, and then this peasant army officially declared an uprising and rebellion.

In view of the corruption of the Great Song Dynasty, the foreign currency begging for peace, the domestic looting, the peasants suffered from heavy taxation and exploitation, so that they were displaced, so after the Song Jiang rebellion, the number of people who came to participate was huge, and the number of troops continued to rise.

Subsequently, Song Jiang led the people to fight between Qing, Qi and Puzhou, captured more than ten county cities, punished corrupt officials, killed the rich and helped the poor, opened warehouses and released grain, and the momentum was growing for a while.

If Song Jiang is just playing a petty fight without a political program, then what happened on the southeast and Zhejiang roads is serious.

Song Huizong Zhao Ji has a wide range of hobbies, not only likes beauty calligraphy and painting, he also likes flowers, bamboo, wood. Therefore, the "Suzhou-Hangzhou Yingfeng Bureau" was set up in the south of the Yangtze River, and the minions were sent to various places in the southeast to collect folk flowers, stones, bamboos, wood and rare treasures, and transported them to Bianjing by large ships, forming a gang for every ten ships, which was the famous "Flower and Stone Gang".

Qingxi County, Muzhou, is prolific with bamboo and wood paint, and it is a key place to be taken by the bureau. This heavy burden was passed on to the peasants, especially the destitute who lived by selling their labour-power, and they suffered greatly from exploitation and oppression.

In the face of the cruel official uniform, many people were always resentful, and at this time, Fang La, who believed in Manichaeism, used the doctrine of "two sects" (light and dark) and "three worlds" (past, present, and future) to preach everywhere, which was supported by the majority of peasants, and soon revolted.

After Song Jiang rebelled, he also led the army to capture the state capital, kill the rich and help the poor, etc., but Fang La came up with a more clever rebellion model.

After Fang La led the people to rebel, he proclaimed himself the Holy Prince, built Yongle, set up officials and generals, and distinguished the ranks with turbans, which were divided into six grades from the red scarf upwards.

At the beginning of the rebellion, the Fang La army could not get military resources such as bows and arrows, weapons and armor, so they used Manichaean ghosts and gods to incite each other, burn houses, plunder gold and silk, and lure good people to join the rebel army.

After using this despicable method, tens of thousands of people joined Fang La's army voluntarily or forcibly in less than ten days, and defeated and killed the Song general Cai Zun at Xikeng.

Subsequently, he captured Qingxi Harmony and Sheerzhou. to the south to conquer Quzhou, killing the county guard Peng Rufang; The north swept through Xincheng, Tonglu, and Fuyang counties, and forced Hangzhou. The county guard of Hangzhou abandoned the city and fled.

After Fang La's army occupied Hangzhou, they killed Chen Jian, the envoy of the city, and Zhao Yue, the envoy of Lian Visit, and set fire to the city for six days, killing countless people.

These people, who had been carried away by blood and anger, would cut off their flesh, cut off their bodies, take their lungs and intestines, or boil them into anointing oil, pierce them with arrows, torture them in various ways, and repay their blood debts, so as to relieve the hatred they had accumulated over the years.

Counting Li Nan in the southernmost part, there were three groups of rebel armies in the Great Song Dynasty at the same time, which made Zhao Ji of Huizong in Tokyo City furious, and hurriedly ordered the Xiang army stationed in the nearby state capital to go to quell the rebellion.
