Chapter 870: Hitting You Is For Your Benefit

Indeed, Karl has uncovered the secret of surplus value, and the capitalists, bankers, and aristocrats of all stripes in England are not just exploiting surplus value to wantonly plunder the labor income of ordinary people? It's just that they don't admit it.

The pain of the British was connected with the communist revolution a few years earlier, and although it was quickly suppressed, the soil in which the revolution broke out did not change in any way, and the meagre wages that were symbolically added to the workers were swallowed up by rising prices over the years.

It can even be said that in the last two years, the situation in Britain has been more sinister than it was a few years ago when the communist revolution broke out, because Britain still had vast colonies at that time, and it was possible to transfer the crisis to the colonies, and to dump commodities into the colonies in order to maintain the minimum standard of living of the workers.

And now, Britain's colonies in the Asia-Pacific region have been completely defeated, the economy has been sanctioned by China, and the warehouses are piled up with industrial products, which cannot be sold, not to mention that there is no profit, and even the capital cannot be recovered, which is no longer just a matter of paying wages to workers, but the survival of the capitalists themselves has also been challenged.

You know, it is not China that is a country sanctioning the UK, Southeast Asia and India are boycotting British goods, and although France and the United States and other countries are not involved in sanctions on the surface, but small actions in the dark are indispensable, such as British industrial products, often inexplicably appear such and such quality problems, erupting into scandals, and gradually being boycotted by dealers, there is a tendency to become a synonym for inferior goods.

France and the United States took advantage of this opportunity to expand their exports to China and many other countries, and their industrial output increased rapidly. It is closing the gap with the UK little by little.

The British authorities, seeing it in their eyes and anxious in their hearts, to tell the truth, if China were next to Britain, Britain would not hesitate to declare war on China. But what can the two countries do when they are so far apart?

Don't look at the fact that China and Britain have been fighting on and off for almost a decade, but neither has declared war on each other.

The queen put down her face and came to China to visit in person, the main purpose was to persuade China to lift the sanctions against the United Kingdom, when China announced the sanctions against the United Kingdom, no one expected that the consequences would be so serious, Britain has reached the point where the second communist revolution is on the verge of breaking out, and more and more factories are closing. More and more workers are unemployed at home, urban security has deteriorated sharply, robberies, murders, **** women, and so on, even if the British government has issued a harsh decree, it is useless, because it can't survive.

The crisis in Britain is deepening.

For a moment, everyone's face was worried.

Li Hongzhang gave Wang Feng a look, and said, "On the surface." The rich paid more and the profits were diluted. But from another point of view, ordinary people get a higher income, they have money in their hands, they also have the need to improve their living standards, they can afford to buy more products from the factories founded by the rich, which in turn increases the wealth of the rich. Isn't that a win-win? This is a virtuous circle of society, and it is precisely this principle that we Chinese pay attention to harmony and wealth. “

Wang Feng nodded and said, "I really can't imagine that more than 10 million people in Bangladesh can starve to death during the harvest season, such a tragic scene." In Chinese history, it can only happen when it is mired in a long civil war, because any ruler with a little conscience, perhaps for his own country, will never push the people to a dead end, our Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty of China once famously said, water can carry a boat, can also capsize a boat, but he has not yet taken into account the most serious situation, if there is no water, then what is the use of a boat? Ironically, in 1771, the year of the disaster, the East India Company's revenues were even higher than in 1768. “

The British guests were extremely embarrassed, which is indeed an embarrassing fact, which fully proves the greed and black-heartedness of the British colonists, because the black-hearted British colonists forced the Bengali people to grow cash crops, and took advantage of the reduction of food crops to raise the price of rice to an unbearable level, and never considered whether to provide relief, which led to more than 10 million people starving to death.

This is worse than the massacre of the Indians by the Spanish colonizers, and the massacre of the Vietnamese and Burmese by the Democratic Alliance forces, because the latter two went under the sign of murder and arson, and the aggression was written on their faces, what can you say about him? He's an aggressor, he admits it himself.

Bangladesh is different, Bangladesh was already a British colony at that time, under British rule, but this kind of thing happened, it is simply sensational.

"The people involved were punished by the British government, and in 1773 the British government began to send a governor to the East India Company in order to prevent a similar tragedy from happening again," he said. “

"Oh?" Wang Feng smiled lightly: "China has always had great goodwill towards Britain, and the Chinese people have always treated the British people with friendliness, and the purpose of our punitive tariffs is not to figure out a few taxes, China is not poor to such a point, on the contrary, because British goods have been taxed, imports have declined, and our tax loss is also very serious, and sanctions are a lose-lose decision." "In that case, then why don't you lift the sanctions against the UK?" Rebel Messton grabbed the speech and immediately asked. "That's a good question!" Wang Feng nodded solemnly and said: "After our calculations, the average price of British goods doubled to ensure that workers get reasonable remuneration, and the profits of factory owners can also be increased accordingly, because there is no need to dump goods at extremely low prices, there is sufficient profits as a guarantee, and the social contradictions in Britain will naturally disappear.

Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know what your plans are for the future of Britain, but I am sure that you do not want to watch Britain have such and such problems because of the excessive division between rich and poor, and eventually the country gradually decays in endless movements until it collapses, and I, although I am a Chinese, I have always respected Britain, because he is the origin of the industrial revolution, the pioneer of the constitutional monarchy, and my beautiful queen is also an authentic British, and I am the son-in-law of Britain, I also have a responsibility and an obligation to help the UK become a better place, so I chose to impose trade sanctions on the UK in the hope of alerting the UK government to the appropriate increase in the welfare of workers, but unfortunately I have not seen the slightest improvement in the UK in this regard. “
