Chapter 229: The Ruthlessness of History

In the so-called futures market, there is a lot of noise, and prices are constantly changing almost every day. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThere are even a lot of people who are speculating here with various so-called futures orders, but they are obviously a group of speculators now. These speculators often speculate on all kinds of materials, and then buy low and sell high and so on. However, when they hype these materials, they also have to take the risks. They are nothing more than to see who will be the last one to beat the drum and pass the flowers, and the last one is the word of course at the time of delivery, so they will inevitably become the ones who pay for this batch of materials.

However, this allows them to have an opportunity to speculate, and even the so-called margin system allows them to operate a large number of futures with a small amount of money, and of course they will not let go of this opportunity to buy and sell. And every day there are people who make a lot of money, but no one notices that there are more people who lose money. Too many people just see the ones who make money, but don't notice the ones that lose money.

However, in a restaurant opposite the futures market, no one knew that Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was watching all this here.

"Shi Bufan, now many people are scolding you for being a person who can use conspiracy, what do you think? You have succeeded in getting these scholars into this future, they have to take risks to get this futures, and even you have calculated these scholars and all kinds of merchants, and used their flesh to cut to the people, this method is really powerful! Many officials in the imperial court are also very gnashing their teeth at you, scolding you for being a guy who uses conspiracy. Li Shimin asked.

However, Shi Bufan replied plainly: "Your Majesty, they said that I was conspiring, but why didn't they stop my so-called 'conspiracy'?" It stands to reason that since I was making a conspiracy, why didn't they come out to stop it, and they just scolded for a few words, and they didn't really come out to demand the abolition of this futures market. ”

"And the so-called conspirators, yin is the other side of the sun that is represented, and the sun cannot shine on the place. In other words, the conspiracy is something that cannot see the light, and once it sees the light, it is not far from the failure of the conspiracy. But this is not the case in my futures market, I proposed the futures market, and those scholars had to choose to agree. Because even if I bring it up again, they will still agree, so can this be called a conspiracy? I took out the futures market and told them directly that they could join the speculation, so they agreed. So I'm all in front of me, and I don't have any conspiracy to say. Naturally, there would be no conspiracy, because if they could turn back the clock, they would still take the initiative to jump in again. This is that they want to speculate, not only the common people want to speculate, but the scholars also want to speculate. In fact, the most enthusiastic people in this speculation were the scholars, and the ordinary people were not keen on speculation. ”

"People's ambitions are endless, and I took advantage of them, so I made them have to fall into it. Even if Fang Xuanling and them, didn't they really oppose it? Because they all want to speculate, I just gave them a chance to play the game, and they know that there is a hole in it, but they also think that they may be able to become the lucky one, which is also a fluke. I took advantage of their mentality and made them have to jump down. So even if they go back in time, they still do it. ”

"As for letting them bear the burden of cutting meat to make up for the losses of the people, in fact, I also redistributed wealth through this means. Although it hurts to say it, my current wealth in Datang is still very unbalanced. It's just a 'middle satiety'. ”

The so-called satiety does not mean that the people can eat half full, but that the group of people who come from the backbone class are very wealthy. This situation is also reflected in the fact that the state has no money, and the people have no money, but the bureaucrats and businessmen in the middle class are rich one by one. These current backbone of the Tang Dynasty are also the scholars, they have a lot of wealth, and the wine and meat of Zhumen stink, but it is impossible to give it to the people. And by ordinary means, it is naturally impossible to force them to take out the meat and cut it for the people. But Shi Bufan used this futures market to use this futures market for the redistribution of wealth. In this way, they were effectively forced to cut their meat, and at least some of them cut their meat to maintain a stable income for the people.

At that time, as long as ordinary people don't join this dangerous game casually, they will naturally be able to obtain a stable income, and they dare not say that they are rich and expensive, but their income is relatively stable, and they will not be forced to sell their land for some reason.

"Yes! If they had to do it again, they would still choose to agree, because they wanted to. Especially the small and medium-sized scholars, they want this opportunity to strengthen the family. Otherwise, they won't be able to improve. Even the side branches of many big families will desperately come here to make money, hoping to get more wealth to enhance the status and influence of the side branches, so that they all have their own ideas. So I knew that this futures looked like a sweet sugar pill and was poisonous, but I had to take the initiative to jump into it. You have taken advantage of this method, but because of it, you have made the people safe, which can be said to be powerful. This is completely public, not a conspiracy. Li Shimin praised.

Shi Bufan replied: "That's right, this is also Yangmou, the real Yangmou." The point of Yangmou is that even if you go back in time and can choose again, the other party still has to jump in. This is also Yangmou, there is no choice. And once the conspiracy is discovered, then nothing needs to be discussed. But Yangmou, they had to jump in, knowing that it was poisonous, they still had to eat this bitter fruit. Because they themselves have no choice, they want to revitalize the family, but the current situation does not give them this opportunity. They had to gamble, to fight hard, so I gave them this opportunity and they had to jump in. Although this success may be very small, they have to jump in. Even if they succeed, they only see those who succeed. And those who succeed will drive more people into this vortex, and eventually their wealth will be emptied. ”

"When their wealth is gradually cut off to the common people, it will definitely become less and less in the end. In this way, I redistribute their wealth so that the people will still reap the benefits. Of course, as long as ordinary people don't die by themselves, there is no danger. ”

Li Shimin also sighed: "However, no one could have thought of this method in the past. If all the small and medium-sized warriors here are wiped out, those great warriors will not be able to support them. Once their foundation is destroyed, it will naturally be turbulent and not played. The skin does not have hair, this trick is ruthless enough. ”

"Even, even if they know there's something wrong with it, they still think that maybe they can get through it, and that's really scary. You've calculated people's hearts right, and that's what makes them have to jump in. However, your method is really too powerful. How did you do that? This kind of conspiracy is really powerful, and it is much more powerful than the conspiracy. How did you manage to do that, can you tell me? ”

Shi Bufan took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, you must learn to use this yang strategy, and the greatest use is to follow the trend." As long as you can see the general trend of the world, then Yangmou will be able to follow the trend. If the general trend is no longer working, then there must be no choice in the end. I'm just borrowing this momentum, and I know that the scholars have also begun to solidify within themselves. They have also begun to solidify in the scholars, and there are only a few high-level scholars who come and go, while it is difficult for the middle- and low-level scholars to have a chance to go up. So if you don't find another way, you can't naturally walk in. And I still used the idea of more power in the branches of the extended family, and in the end they all had to jump in. Even if they know that there is a problem here, they naturally dare not do it for the sake of their own interests. I just took advantage of this momentum, and this general trend is the reason why I was able to use Yang Mou successfully. ”

"Of course, even if I didn't have the means, they would have done it. In fact, my method is just to push this momentum more vigorously and make them move faster. Therefore, if you want to use Yangmou, never try to go against the general trend, otherwise you will definitely fail. They called me a conspiracy, but I knew that conspiracy wouldn't change anything. Conspiracy may only change for a while, but it cannot change the general trend of the world. The real general trend of the world still depends on the strength of integrity. If I didn't have the support of the Emperor behind me, I wouldn't have succeeded. ”

"As for the gentry, they have now begun to compete even more fiercely. They had to do that, and I opened up a place for them to compete, a place for even more fierce competition. They actually know very well that once they compete here, many of their families will definitely die out as a result. But they had to do it, because the people behind them wouldn't allow it. The family behind them, the family behind them, will not allow them to give up. They may want to give up, but in the end they have to bite the bullet. This is the big family, and no one can be truly free. ”

Li Shimin also sighed, isn't the sorrow of the big family like this? Maybe being the patriarch of a big family, it looks very beautiful on the surface, and even many people are proud of being born in a big family. But the price behind them is the loss of freedom. Every time they take a step, they almost actually do it against their will. Maybe they didn't want to do it themselves, but the huge family behind them had to push them to do it. Li Shimin is like this, Fang Xuanling is like this, and even anyone is like this. There are so many things behind your back that you can't be truly free.

Although Fang Xuanling has a very good relationship with Li Shimin, and even if possible, Fang Xuanling can even "die as a confidant" with Li Shimin. However, his personal thoughts can never withstand the common interests of the interest groups behind him. History is so ruthless, and anyone in history is just making choices against their will.

"The general trend, this general trend is really powerful. But who can see the general trend of the world? The general trend of the world is sometimes just a mantis arm as a car. But what about the mantis arm as a car, in the end, it will be washed away by the long river of history. Anyone who stands in the way of progress in the long river of history cannot be stopped! Shi Bufan said.

Li Shimin looked at Shi Bufan and said, "Can't even me?" If, I am a great talent, and I have the talents of the world, wouldn't it be okay? I don't believe it, I don't believe that anyone in this world can defeat me. When I was eighteen years old, I once rescued Emperor Yang of Sui, and then became famous all the way until today. However, I don't think anyone in this world can defeat me. ”

"Your Majesty, maybe, but maybe you haven't really experienced the impact of the long river of history, and you can't really feel this huge pressure. This is not something that can be blocked by manpower, and it is not something that can be stopped by manpower. Shi Bufan replied vaguely.

The progress of history cannot be stopped by manpower. When the progress of the productive forces leads to a social revolution, it is not a person's good, evil, beauty and ugliness that can be changed. Maybe you are a good person, maybe you are really a person with good moral character, but the class and interest group you live in no longer match the needs of the mainstream, and maybe even the people in the new interest group on the other side are many good and bad people. But so what, because the progress of history is so ruthless, it will not be reversed because of any person's excellent moral character or outstanding ability.

"Shi Bufan, do you have some experience in history? Do you know what will happen to my Datang after a thousand years? What will happen to me after a thousand years? Li Shimin asked.

After hearing this, Shi Bufan said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, do you really let me say it?" Are you asking me to tell the truth, or is it a lie? ”

"Hehe, what about the truth, how about the lies?" Li Shimin asked.

Shi Bufan replied: "As for the lie, I mean that after a thousand years of the Tang Dynasty, the people will be prosperous, and the world will be peaceful." ”

The corners of Li Shimin's mouth twitched, and then said, "What about the truth?" I want to hear you tell the truth! ”

"Your Majesty, if it's true, then I want to say that after a thousand years, it is unknown whether my Datang can still exist!" Shi Bufan said.

Li Shimin stood up suddenly, looking at Shi Bufan with wide eyes, obviously there was already a precursor to anger. (To be continued.) )
