Outside the house at night, it's quiet.

The gentle moonlight shrouded the traumatized earth.

"Wen Ling, are you sure you want to choose this person?"

"Yes, master. I watched him for three days and I felt that he was a good man. ”

"Okay, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it, but it doesn't seem to be sincere when you put incense on the fire."

Huang Si had just teleported over, and Wen Ling had been staying here for three days.

The specific situation, he looked at Wen Ling's memory and understood.

Indeed, he only buys the cheapest incense, which is a man who is used to saving. But the owner didn't notice that he bought his mother the best roast chicken in the delicatessen. ”

"So what, oh yes, I'm going to buy one tomorrow too."

Wen Ling smiled and shook his head.

After chatting with Wen Ling for a while, Huang Si pulled him into the air.

The earth is getting smaller and smaller under your feet.

Soon, the whole village was like a matchbox.

They continue to rise.

Wen Ling asked, "Master, what do you want?" ”

"A little higher, you'll have a better view."

Huang Si replied to him.

Wen Ling is clear.

The two of them stopped high in the air, and from this perspective, they could no longer see the buildings on the ground at all.

Wen Ling has the law of darkness, and darkness does not hinder his vision, and he looks at the vast land.

From here, in the distance, there are cascading mountains and rivers.

The place where the Terrans live is easy to identify, because the natural geography will show irregular lines, but the Terran dwellings will carve clear and regular straight lines on the earth.

In the high night sky, under the blowing of the Gangfeng, Huang Si spoke:

"You've heard the words of peace before."

Wen Ling nodded, "Well, he's angry at the injustice of the world. ”

"Speaking of which, Wen Ling, do you know why these people have been very poor?"

"The current social productive forces, theoretically speaking, can already feed more than five people with food produced by one person, why are they still so poor?"

Huang Si suddenly asked.

"The master must have taught me something."

Wen Ling was very smart, and immediately found out that Huang Si didn't want to ask questions, but wanted to say something.

"Well, the reason is very simple, because the lives of the poor are full of risks."

"A person, as long as he invests his money in expanding reproduction, will have more wealth today than he did yesterday, day by day, until one day he reaches stability, which we call the equilibrium of wealth."

"As long as a person has assets, theoretically speaking, he can achieve a wealth equilibrium little by little."

"But if a person is poor from the beginning, he doesn't have the cash to invest, so he can't grow his wealth."

"As long as a poor person has a little extra consumption, such as illness, such as buying luxury goods such as television, his wealth will be less than yesterday, and the less wealth, the more difficult it will be for him to get out of this state, which is called the poverty trap."

"For the rich, if he is sick, or buying a diamond ring for tens of thousands of yuan, it will only slow down the growth of his wealth, and he is still in the wealthy class."

But for a poor person, he can't get sick, he has to avoid extra expenses, and living in this world requires many, many desires to succeed in saving a little money. And once he gets sick, maybe everything will be wasted. ”

"Moreover, the life of the poor is boring."

"So, rather than saving up and trying to reach the tipping point of affluence little by little, the poor are more willing to use their money to buy something that is a luxury for him, but that adds joy to life, or satisfaction."

"Iphone, for example."

"Some people would even rather sell their kidneys than buy an Iphone."

"But if he does, he'll end up in an even more miserable situation."

"The rich don't have to endure so many desires than the poor. There are many things that you can buy when you want to, and you can do what you want, and you don't have to think about it so much. ”

"It's not the same with the poor. On the one hand, the poor have less information than the rich, so much so that the decisions they make are often irrational. On the other hand, they have a stronger desire for luxuries beyond their capabilities, and only by restraining all these desires can they accumulate assets little by little...... But the slightest accident will fail. ”

"That's why it's easier for the rich to succeed than the poor."

"If a person falls into the poverty trap, it is very difficult to get out of it by relying on his own strength alone."

"Pinghe's free medical treatment in the village has actually helped these villagers to a great extent, reducing their chances of becoming poorer."

After Huang Si finished speaking, Wen Ling generally understood, but he didn't understand many words.

Wen Ling looked at the village below and asked:

"Well, the poor will be poor, and all this is unsolvable?"

"Of course it's not unsolvable."

Huang Si said.

"Otherwise, why should there be uprisings and revolutions in ancient societies? It's for reshuffling. ”

And he said:

"But today's Terrans, it is not easy to revolt, which has something to do with the level of science and technology. The hierarchy of the human race is too strict, and the advanced military technology is in the hands of the nobles, and it is difficult for the commoners to resist. ”

Wen Ling asked, "Is there any hope that the Terrans will turn around?" ”

"Of course there is, that's how war is used. Every time there is a major war, a large number of new upstarts will emerge from the Terrans. Then again, if it weren't for the Millennial War, the technology of the Terrans would not have developed by leaps and bounds, and now they have all begun to sail far away. ”

Wen Ling immediately asked again:

"But the war is coming to an end. If Jing unifies the world, wouldn't the human race form a stable structure up and down, a pool of stagnant water, and the people at the bottom will have no room to turn over? ”

Huang Si didn't answer him immediately.

Wen Ling didn't wait for an answer, thought about it, and said:

"In this way, the poor will always be poor, and the rich will always be rich, and the rich will become more and more brazen to oppress the poor, just as we have seen in this village, where the landlords and their men oppress the peasants."

"The master probably doesn't want to see that happen."

Huang Si nodded.

"In fact, there are two solutions to this situation."

"One is to imitate what the other side of the earth does."

"The solution to the problem of class non-circulation over there is the imperial examination system. Through the relatively fair system of the imperial examination, it can ensure the circulation of talents from the bottom to the upper class and avoid class rigidity. ”

"The second is to develop religion."

"To date, the human race has not had a complete and mature religious system, only primitive belief in gods. If you join religion, you add the metaphysical idea of karma, and then you add force that transcends the world, you can curb this. ”

"Religion, and supernatural powers, can make all people think about the grave consequences of doing these things before committing evil, rather than acting arbitrarily just because they don't violate the criminal law."

He looked at Wen Ling.

"What I'm asking you to do, it's the latter."

Wen Ling nodded.

"I see...... I finally understood the root cause of all the things that my master wanted me to do. ”

He saluted.

"Thank you master for teaching me."

Wen Ling's gratitude is sincere.

To paraphrase a sentence from the earth, among the families of the Three Realms, Wen Ling's happiness is estimated to be one of the best.

He can do research now if he wants to, with an unlimited lifespan and no official chores.

Moreover, he did not ponder alone, but had Huang Si as a teacher to teach him.

Wen Ling was extremely satisfied with this kind of life.

After saying this, Huang Si took Wen Ling and teleported to Burning River City, asking him to find a place to live by himself.

Although Wen Ling has five laws, none of these five laws are as suitable for combat and daily use as Xiaohua.

It is also more useful for the law of the water system.

He can't fly now, and he doesn't have a power core yet, so he can only live like a mortal.

"Let's go, see you tomorrow."

Wen Ling stood at the door of the inn and greeted his master.

Huang Si made a note of buying roast chicken on the agenda and teleported away.
