Chapter 333 History is always strikingly similar
Shi Chen has an upright temperament, is brave and diligent in doing things, and does not lack the corresponding ability, but he is limited to the early growth environment, lacks vision, and lacks the overall situation, such a person is undoubtedly a sharp double-edged sword.
It was Elizabeth's plan to suppress other families, especially Landisan, who controlled the production of genetic building blocks, and was at the top of her proposed list.
Naturally, there is a corresponding political need to move Landystein for what is going on.
If someone has studied the recent history of the Federation and the history of the Celestial Empire in the ancient earth era, they will find the shadow of the genetic building block, and that is the official salt system.
Although salt is not valuable, it is an indispensable thing in daily life. In the Han Dynasty, that is, before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the country's salt ban was relatively easy, and many people got rich by boiling and selling salt by themselves. In the middle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, due to the long-term war against the Xiongnu, resulting in too much military expenditure, the treasury was empty, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty accepted the proposal of Dongguo Xianyang, Kong Wei and others, and carried out a state monopoly on salt, and the people were not allowed to cook or sell private salt, and the price of salt was set by the government to be very high.
In this way, the government's financial revenue was guaranteed, and salt was an indispensable material for the people's life, so the state profited greatly from it, plundered the social wealth in disguise, and made up for the financial deficit due to the years of war.
In addition, for the sake of social stability, the so-called "not suffering from a small number but suffering from inequality", the profit of salt is very large, and the income of salt merchants is as different as the income of cultivators, which will cause the gap between the rich and the poor to be uncontrollable and bring hidden dangers to society.
The imperial court advocated "agriculture-oriented", and the agricultural society was the most stable and easily controllable society. Because people are bound to a small piece of land, the energy is minimal, if not forbidden private salt. The number of salt sellers is not controlled, and because most of China does not produce salt, salt sellers have to move around the country. In this way, at worst, it is difficult to hunt down these people if they break the law, and at worst, this kind of salt seller group with a wide range of contacts is a considerable threat to the safety of the imperial court. And the farmer is simple, and the merchant is treacherous. The latter is clearly more difficult to rule.
In contrast, during the Federal Silver Cross War, this huge war also lasted for more than ten years. The economy is in recession, the treasury is empty, and in this situation, the genetic building blocks that have been developed by Landystein in times of war. After being decided by the federal upper echelons. Fill in this function.
After all, there is a difference between genetic building blocks and table salt, and genetic building blocks are not a necessity of life, but when there is a powerful enemy of the Empire, because the innate physique gap between the Federation and the Imperial is too huge, they will be suppressed and disadvantaged in various ways on the battlefield, so the popularization of genetic building materials has become a strategic need at that time, and in this situation. The Regulations on the Administration of Reproductive Authority came into being.
This decree evolved the genetic building blocks that were originally not necessities of life into something similar to salt in the ancient Celestial Empire. It's just that compared to it, eating salt will cause weakness in the limbs, and without genetic components, it will not be able to improve the relatively weak physique compared to the imperial people.
At the same time, this decree nationalized the production of genetic components, which largely prevented the diffusion of its production technology due to the collusion of interests, prevented uncontrolled private profits, and prevented it from leaking to the Empire.
However, because the root of this technique is still a patent of Landystein, although it is nominally nationalized and a part of the profits are shared by the major families, it still occupies the majority of the technology and is manufactured under the supervision of the government.
However, history always has a striking similarity, after all, supervision cannot be completely prohibited, the ancient Celestial Dynasty has repeatedly banned salt for profit, driven by huge interests, and the smuggling of genetic components within the Federation and even to the empire is also not small.
And with the passage of time, the gap between the rich and the poor in society has gradually reached a terrifying level, and under the "Regulations on the Administration of Reproductive Authority", there is a hidden danger of horror that the salt industry does not have, that is, the increasing number of black households in the Federation.
In the face of the high price of genetic components and the double restriction of life values, some people gradually lost their legal reproductive rights, and more and more illegal black households were born out of the genetic inertia and emotional needs of biological instinct.
It has only been 34 years since the law was introduced, so the black households have just multiplied to the second generation, but the hidden social dangers it produces have been very obvious, according to conservative statistics, the number of black households in the whole federation has been as high as 360 million, and the growth rate is increasing every year, in a sense, this is a timed nuclear bomb.
If there is no subversive reform of this industry and law, then the federation will sooner or later swallow the evil consequences of its own planting, but the genetic component industry, like the ancient salt industry, has achieved significant results in the early stage, but both the interest class and the scope of involvement are too broad, even small changes to it will affect the interests of too many people, and become the target of public criticism.
Since the birth of the Han Dynasty, the official salt system of the ancient heavenly dynasty has gone through nearly two thousand years, and no matter how many reforms it has undergone in the middle, it has not completely eliminated its essence of plundering wealth.
In this case, Elizabeth naturally can't sit back and watch Landystein grow bigger with the springboard of biological mecha skills, otherwise Landystein will control the genetic components and master a military industry that is the lifeblood of the Federation, and if he wants to restrain him in the future, the difficulty will expand geometrically.
Even if Shi Chen did not come forward, Elizabeth was ready to use other methods to prevent Randistan, and at this juncture, Shi Chen's good meat cleaver took the initiative to send it to her, how could Elizabeth refuse this good opportunity to 'repay the favor'.
What even Shi Chen himself didn't know was that in Elizabeth's opinion, Shi Chen's series of actions since returning to the capital star circle were extremely in line with Elizabeth's needs.
The only thing that made her a little dissatisfied was Yu Tongyuan's placement, which would have been an excuse for her to operate on Landistan, and Shi Chen's actions undoubtedly detonated this time bomb buried under Landistan in advance.
However, Shi Chen did not disappoint her at first, and under the heavy restrictions from Puke, Shi Chen actually took the initiative to hand over the skills of the biological mecha and the controlling stake together.
Even Elizabeth didn't expect Shi Chen to do it so simply and thoroughly in order to take revenge on Landystan, after all, if this technique was put in the hands of anyone else, it would not be easy to let go, because it had already proved the advantages of banning mechanical mechas, a future military lifeline, and its value and significance were immeasurable.
Elizabeth is so relieved to hand over the combat position at the time of the announcement to Shi Chen, because she may be the person who knows Shi Chen's roots and the origin of that technique in the Federation at present, whether it is the technique that Shi Chen has taken out, or his own personal strength, she has a lot of confidence.
And Shi Chen's second-killing victory, in Elizabeth's opinion, is also a matter of course, she understands her daughter, how can it be simple to be trained by Arsaliya herself.
But the follow-up accident was not in her calculations, Shi Chen's sudden attack in the temporary meeting also made her stunned, shocked that the head of a family would be pushed to the most embarrassing and failed situation by Shi Chen in such a simple, rude and even rude way, and also brought too many troubles and unpredictable variables to her original plan, which is also the reason why Elizabeth feels that Shi Chen will die sooner or later without a place to be buried, and it is also the reason why she is unwilling to let Isha have too much contact with Shi Chen.
While drinking Qishan clouds, Elizabeth thought about these headaches, and sighed that her two daughters did not have anything to worry about, and it was even more strange that she could have such a close relationship with Shi Chen.
"Your Majesty, Rudolph wants to visit you in the near future." Secretary Yan stepped forward again to ask for instructions.
"Nope." Elizabeth frowned slightly, gently blew the clouds in the cup, and said indifferently: "Since your health is not good, you can recuperate at home." ”
She naturally knew that Rudolph came to her at this time to ask for an explanation. If Shi Chen hadn't pushed Landystein into the worst situation by his radical actions at the extraordinary meeting, she would have gladly met at this time, but Shi Chen had completely torn the faces of both sides, then there would be nothing to talk about in this limelight.
The cooperation between Shi Chen and Xia Jingming made Shi Chen label her Elizabeth, and Shi Chen's actions on the public announcement incident of Puke made the upper nobles of the Federation think that this move was her instructions, which made many people feel puzzled and dissatisfied, and in the end, these negative emotions and pressures will be projected onto her.
Elizabeth didn't care about the jealousy of those people, because no one dared to show it to her face, but Shi Chen's actions were completely out of his own impulse, completely beyond her original plan, and made her fall into a great passivity.
At this point, she can only go with the flow and maximize the benefits she can seek.
In addition, she was not in the mood to meet Rudolph, who had been knocked out of the clouds at the moment, because compared to Shi Chen's retaliatory actions, which could be attributed to Shi Chen's bad personality, then the actions of the other person made her completely incomprehensible.
