After laughing, Arrow picked up the spoon and took a bite of the noodle soup in his hand, and said with a smile: "Actually, there is no way for humans to live in peace with each other. It's just that a lot of people don't realize it yet. ”

Hearing this, the members' eyes suddenly lit up again. Cream said with interest, "President, aren't you going to talk about the economy again?" As if there was no problem in the world that the economy could not solve. ”

Arrow deliberately straightened his face and said with a straight face: "I'm sorry, this is really an economic problem. In the final analysis, wars between people come from economic inequality and conflicts of interests. To put it more simply, I don't have water to drink, but you have water here and you won't give it to me, so I can only come and grab it. ”

"Wars of pure faith cannot be said to have been absent in the history of our human race, but at the individual level, participation in a certain war may be because of faith, but if the war is enlarged from local individuals to both sides of the belligerent countries, or even all the countries around the war, then it is a pity that all wars are ultimately because of economic problems."

"The reason is very simple, just like me, the guild leader of the Mermaid Song, do you think that I will scold me because a member of a guild in Hanhai City scolds me, and I will take you to leave your business behind and rush to the capital to find the other party's Xingshi to ask for guilt? But on the other hand, if you, or one of the members who will join our Mermaid Song in the future, are people with a very strong sense of honor in the guild, maybe you will rush to the capital to find trouble because of a scolding from others. This is the reason why there is a great divergence between the judgment of the individual and the judgment of the overall macro level. ”

Use simple examples to make sure that these guys can easily understand these truths. This was taught to Arrow when he was a student, and now he hopes to be able to teach his members in these ways.

Coco nodded: "Brother President, I understand the reason, but what did you just say that there is any way to stop the war between human beings, and you said that this method is economic, so what is it exactly?" ”

Arrow smiled and said, "As I said earlier, war is because there is a conflict between interests. I don't have you, I have you, and this conflict of interests will lead to war. ”

"But if you think about it in another direction, if you have water there and I don't, in the same way, I have fertile land here and you have saline land here, then the problem will be solved."

"You give me water to irrigate my fertile land, and at the same time keep me full of water, and I won't be exhausted by not having water to drink. Then I will give you the crops I have grown, so that you too can eat to your heart's content, and you will not go hungry. In this way, although there will still be a state between the two of us that you don't have what I have, and what you have that I don't have, you and I can become a state of cooperation rather than a state of competition. ”

"I've taught you before, haven't I? Money is valuable not because it has any value in itself, but because we humans give it value. The basic value of money is in exchange, and some money that cannot be exchanged for actual goods or services is no different from a stone on the side of the road. ”

"One of my economics teachers once said to me that why bother to grab something that you can buy with money?"

At first glance, this sentence may seem speechless. I can grab everything directly from you, so why bother to buy it from you? Isn't that the other way around? ”

"But if you think about it, you can understand what my teacher meant, if I rob it directly, it looks like I'm benefiting, but from a deeper concept, I have created a concept of me as a 'insecure' person."

"This time I succeeded, but the next time I want to grab it, others will become very vigilant and more vigilant. At the same time, since I can use violence directly, it is equivalent to acquiescing that others can also use violence against me. This is the same reason that I have always told you before that you should never use violence against others lightly, let alone kill people at will without regard for life. What you can do to others, others can certainly do to you, that's logic. ”

"But if I don't use violence, but give money in exchange for what you have, you will be very happy to give me what you have. I don't have to exert any effort, you don't become more vigilant, I don't become a 'dangerous person' in the eyes of others, and of course I disagree with the legitimacy of others using violence against me. ”

"Then, as long as you can keep enough money in your hands, then through the constant exchange of goods, there will be a very close cooperation between the two people. Of course, there will be no more hostility or war between them. This concept can also be gradually extended to countries, but it can also be extended to three countries, four countries, or even all the countries in the whole world. ”

"If only every nation could concentrate on managing a resource that no other country had, then the world would be completely eliminated from war. The relationship between people will also become incomparably close and harmonious. ”

This is one of the theoretical foundations of economics. My teacher always believed that through the study of economics, most of the world's wars could be curbed, so that people could live happier lives. ”

After Arrow finished speaking, his face was red under the firelight, as if he was immersed in that happy memory.

Brad put down the bowl and listened to him very convinced, and said, "President Arrow, does it sound like this is a beautiful world?" If the world can really eliminate wars by running economics, as your teacher said, then why wouldn't the nobles do it? ”

In this regard, Arrow could only smile and shake his head slightly. He clapped his hands and smiled, "Okay, it's annoying to always listen to me talk about these boring economics topics, right?" My teacher's theory is not yet finished, maybe the world will change when he finishes it? Come on, let's now summarize the experience of this adventure. We've discovered that the Necro Eater has the ability to contag zombies, which requires more attention. ”

Coco: "Brother President, why does the corpse eater, who has never been contagious, have this zombie trait now?" ”

Arrow really wanted to knock this little girl on the head. Isn't that what you magicians are responsible for thinking about? Otherwise, what do you think those students in the Department of Magic are doing when they memorize all kinds of theoretical knowledge over there all day long, and draw magic formation diagrams on the school square all day long? Is it fun?

But now, Iroh really can't directly criticize this little girl. After all, he was responsible for thinking about things before, and this so-called magician was only responsible for eating and studying all day long. Let a child who only knows addition, subtraction, multiplication and division think about the reason why the principle of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division exists? This span may be a bit bigger.

"Hmm...... Maybe it's food, or maybe it's the stress response from being in an unfamiliar area? Or maybe maybe that Count Cap did some magic when he was experimenting with the Ghoul King. Now that he's dead, we can't come up with an answer. So, you'd better keep this trait in mind for me, and be extra careful if you encounter a corpse eater in the mine in the future, especially if you encounter a corpse eater. Ah, of course, if you can be like Brad, wrapped in thick armor, and go up to fight hand-to-hand. ”

Brad raised his hand, as if to have something to say. Arrow agreed, and the big man stood up and said, "President, when I performed the Tree Armor Technique, I felt very heavy and my mobility became very poor. And the sight is not very good. ”

Parfay flew up in a frenzy, stretched out her finger and pointed heavily at the tip of the big man's nose: "What do you mean?" Did you mean that I protected you too well? ”

Brad was a little embarrassed, and quickly withdrew his hand: "No, no, no!" I'm just saying that there might be a little more armor and it's getting in my way......"

"A little more just gets in the way of you! What if you get hurt if it's missing? ”

As soon as the words came out, Parfay suddenly realized that she had said something "excessive", her little face turned red, and she immediately flew behind Coco, hiding and refusing to see anyone.

As a result, the whole camp immediately burst into laughter, and the fatigue of several days was also wiped out in this burst of laughter. All that was left was Brad rubbing the back of his head in place, smirking, not knowing what everyone was laughing at.

After a night of silence, I got up and walked towards Pelican Town.

When I came, I walked fast, and when I went back, I was quite relaxed, and my pace slowed down a little involuntarily.

But as the time goes into July, the sun, which comes to torment all living things on the earth every year, begins to habitually emit heat waves, making people feel that the time has entered summer.

Walking on the main road, you can see the sparkling forest from afar. Just walk around the Shining Forest for another day and you should be able to reach Pelican Town.

Although this was true, Arrow looked at the road that was not covered in the slightest, and then looked at the lush, cool and shining forest over there, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little tangled.

"Hoo ......"

Parfay was now hiding in the middle of White's skull and wouldn't get into Brad's hot pocket, and Coco was now out of breath with an umbrella to let the skeletal dog drag him along.
