When Daqin Times was first established, people were only shocked and amazed, but few people were able to see the great changes that 'information' has brought to this era.

In faraway Persia, Abkhas and Mogina were undoubtedly the beneficiaries of the beginning of the Information Age. The crumbling Persian dynasty had already existed in name only when Xerxes III and his army of immortals had fallen, and the Persian nobles of Persia were like grass on the wall, swaying from side to side in the wind of Abu Hassan and Mogina; The first thing they had to do every morning was to pick up the Persian "Daqin Times" and read it, from which they learned that Huaxia was originally a huge country with a long history that was better than Persia, that there were powerful Shandong Six Kingdoms in the far east, that there was a rich and powerful Chu, that there was an entanglement of blood, that there were hundreds of schools of thought contending with Confucianism, Taoism, and Molaw, and that there were scholars who could spare their heads at any time for the sake of honor...... It turns out that this country has also experienced many disasters and countless wars and divisions like Persia, but since the appearance of the person known as the Western Monarch Baizi, the country seems to be full of vitality, the ferocious Yiqu people have been conquered, this Baizi has established 'my city' on the huge western frontier, and the economic and cultural reforms he promoted have strengthened the once poor Qin State, and also secretly changed the whole of China.

Much of the suffering and war is due to greed and conquest, and there is also a lot of unnecessary killing and bloodshed due to strangeness. When these nobles had the opportunity to learn about the powerful country in the East and the great white son through the Great Qin Times, their imminent malice unconsciously turned into a weak heart in the face of the strong and a passion for rushing to join the revolutionary ~ life team. Now all the Persian nobles can see that the Chinese do not want to destroy Persia, and the spokespersons chosen by the white son are only Abu Hassan, who is a royal family, and Mogina, who has royal blood. These two spokespersons are so important. Kneel to our 'Great ~ Emperor of the Qing Kingdom' can. The psychology of kneeling 'day ~ me' but absolutely not exists in this country.

Perhaps the Persian aristocracy was still partially waiting. However, those Persian merchants who had pursued wealth all their lives had already religiously picked up the "Great Qin Times", looked at the "Initial Theory of Capital" and "Introduction to Capital" published in the newspaper over and over again, and worshipped the white son of Qin and Zhong Wuyan, the strange woman of Qi State, as the messengers of the god of commerce stationed in the world. Each of them was the most astute of merchants, from the Nile to the Aegean Sea to the Persian Plateau, they saw a lot of dynastic changes, wars and peaces, but even the greatest kings and commanders in history could not really convince them, they were never confined to Persia, but looked at the whole world! But the advent of Capital has allowed them to find a god who is truly worthy of worship and a goal that they can devote their lives to pursuing!

Zhong Wuyan's lectures at the Jixia School Palace were very successful. Especially when Bai Dong, who was pressing the big axis, then stepped onto the podium, the merchants in China were even more excited, including Xu Gong, who always liked to look at Bai Dong with a pair of peach blossom eyes.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, when the mind was most emancipated and active, none of the businessmen were fools who rested on their laurels, and they had already come into contact with the so-called 'capital' in their many years of commercial activities, but their understanding and use of capital were mostly limited to the level of 'seeking profit from capital', and they could not see how great changes the real power of capital and the operation of big capital would bring to this country.

Is the market just a 'closed market' in the capitals of various countries? Only the dumbest person would think that the market has always been a microcosm of the country, another 'world' of goods, money, labor, and you can't grab it and put it in front of you. But no one will not be affected by it, from the princes of the Son of Heaven to the heads of Li Minqian. They are all being influenced and changed by the market, and at the same time they are changing the market.

This market is the fairest, it will not have human emotions, likes and dislikes, and it is difficult for even the most powerful countries and the most powerful bigwigs to completely control and change it; It can only change by its own laws, and this change tends to affect and change the powerful nations on which it is built and the meat eaters who control them...... Even a huge country with a territory of 100,000 miles goes against its laws, and if it is forcibly violated, it will inevitably bring great disaster! But the wise people in this world can use the power of capital to guide it, just like Wu Yuan in the past, just need to let the money out, and the money will give birth to more money in the hands of the people, and it is precisely because the money fulfills its duty of 'circulation' that there are miraculous results......

Commodity, money, labour, circulation, production and surplus value, value and use value...... Bai Dong has never been a person who likes to follow the rules, what he wants to do is a butterfly, not a god who can create a world in seven days, so the lecture in the Jixia School Palace is more like cramming, it's just that Zhong Wuyan and him join forces to torture or happiness Xu Gong, the smartest and most diligent businessmen, they can understand nature, it doesn't matter, Huaxia still lacks people who follow the footsteps of the 'giants' to desperately support themselves? In later generations, a "Dream of Red Mansions" did not know how many red scholars were fed......

When he heard that 'the economic law represented by the market is the source of change and influence on China, and any other force is just a weak mantis in front of the economic law', and when he heard Bai Dong's evaluation of commodities and value, as well as the positive and correct evaluation of surplus value, Xu Gong's breathing was a little short, his face was red, his starry eyes flashed, and the deer in his heart collided...... If he hadn't been stopped by Li Niang risking his life, he would have rushed to the stage to hug Bai Dong and kiss him, just like the most fanatical celebrity chaser. Chasing names is not uncommon in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Confucius often encountered this kind of fanatic, Mozi is the same, no matter how exquisite swordsmanship can not scare off these fanatical fans.

Bai Dong is not an economist, but Xu Gong and the businessmen sitting in the audience have the potential to become economists, and there is no shortage of smart people in China who are struggling in the front line of the business world, so he only needs to make a correct summary and generalization from a theoretical height, and these talented people will turn out the letter he transmits, lighting up this country where there is commodity trading but no real commodity economy, and there is a market but there is a lack of market rules. This is not a China that is still stuck in the primitive economic environment, this is a new Warring States that already has newspapers, navigation, silver coins and Bai family money!

The superstructure of China has now seen the upcoming era of capital and commodity economy through the corner of the tomb cloth uncovered by the white building; The Persians, on the other hand, saw the changes in China through the "Daqin Times", and the developed information made many people excited, many people afraid, and many people uneasy, like a stone thrown into a lake, causing countless ripples.

Just when Bai Dong was heartbroken about Zhong Wuyan's fame marrying into the Qi Palace, Mu Xijing, who was in Western Persia, finally couldn't wait any longer, which would make him lose his last chance; At the same time, there was also a man who traveled thousands of miles from China in the East to the once glorious city of Susa, the Persian megacity that also carried his last hopes...... (To be continued......)
