Chapter 1490: Justice and Freedom

"What? The price of gold coins and several gems has gone up?" Dong Hezi, who had returned to the main plane, had not had time to remotely debug his "enclave" far away on the edge of the astral plane, when he heard such news. And thanks to the improvement of information technology, the Duke's bureaucrats, especially the young conventions trained in business, reacted a little faster than their predecessors - at least knowing that these prices were against the war, they had gathered enough information and written a basic analysis, though crude and miserable.

Selling wind magic, unification, and taxation will get copper or silver coins, and to buy bulk commodities, especially war magic supplies, more gold, some gems, and high-grade sulfur. Now I have enough copper and silver coins in my hand, which is theoretically enough to buy war supplies, but unfortunately I have to go through the middle: copper and silver - exchange for gold - for magic supplies, gold is relatively appreciated, and the amount that can be exchanged is less, and there is less in exchange for magic supplies.

"See, this is the difference between money, materials, and production systems. Dong Hezi shrugged at the annoyed blonde priestess: "Among the three, people will secretly insert all kinds of cats, and then make us suffer." Have you sent someone to find out what the reason is, what excuses, and what kind of big rich people are doing the trick?"

"It's already being checked. The blonde priestess was distracted by the events on the front and rear lines of the war, and her brows persisted: "But we still have too little power in this area. Moreover~~~ officials, after all, they are not mixed outside, and their enthusiasm is not very high. If we want to investigate with force, I am afraid that those literati will accuse us of 'interfering with financial freedom and fair trade'. ”

"Cut!" Dong Hezi waved his hand and smiled: "Fair? What kind of fairness and freedom do you talk about when you play with money?" Buyer and seller, the second person also has two identities, buyer and seller. Therefore, everyone has two identities: buyer A and seller B. The 'identity' of each person can be grouped into factor group A buyers and factor group B sellers. So there is the following situation:"

A1β€”B1A1β€”B2A1β€”B3A1β€”B4A1β€”B5A1β€”B6A1β€”B7

A2β€”B1A2β€”B2A2β€”B3A2β€”B4A2β€”B5A2β€”B6A2β€”B7

A3β€”B1A3β€”B2A3β€”B3A3β€”B4

In short: Row A - Row B, there is a unified relationship between the buyer and the seller: Row A gives currency X, and Row B gives product Y. There are several insurmountable inequities right away: 1. There is no necessarily linear or non-linear connection between X and Y. ”

"If you don't take into account the money and middlemen of massive savings, use the simplest "producer-to-consumer" model. Then this year, the weather is good, I have harvested three or five more buckets in the field, and the product Y1 in my hand has increased. But will the grain selling currency X1 in the hands of the grain blacksmith automatically increase in equal proportions? Another example: the blacksmith improves the process and reduces the defective rate. A few more pots than last year. Y2 increased. But will the pot buying currency X2 in the hands of the pot farmer also increase automatically in the same proportion? This year, the total amount of product Y produced by factor group B has increased by 10% compared with last year. But will the total amount of currency X in factor group A automatically increase by 10%? If there is no proportional increase. That illustrates: when the product is increased or decreased. Money cannot correctly reflect the increase or decrease of the productβ€”money always does not reflect the product fairly! This is a situation created by the laws of the universe. It's inherently unjust. It was unfair from the beginning, what justice do they have to talk about?"

"The second problem is when the buyer B3 increases the production of the product. When A3 is ready to be sold to buyers, A3 needs it, but it does not have any additional currency. Then it's not a deal. The currency will not fall into the hands of A3 out of thin air, because the currency is issued by a small person A1 in the control zhΓ¬! A1 gives A2, A3, A4, A5, the issuing currency, and says: The issued currency is to charge interest, I issued YN currency, you have to return YN+0.02 currency. ”

"Wait," Midland found a strange thing: "If the currency YN is issued by A1, then the total amount of currency is only YN, how can it become YN+0.02?" Dong Hezi spread his hands: "Don't ask me, ask those big commercial houses that control the currency-they control the currency issuance, and when they lend money to others, they also want others to repay interest, that is, to return more currency." ”

"So, others owe them money forever?" Midland frowned, "Is this too tricky!" Dong Hezi smiled and shrugged: "So, where does the fairness come from? Also, every product added Y1, Y2, Y3, etc., is in the hands of every B1, B2, B3, etc. in the B ranks. But the currencies X1, X2, and X3 are all monopolized in the hands of a small A1, and are distributed to A2, A3, A4, etc., by their will and conditions. The product is free, but where is the freedom of money?"

When Dong Hezi still wanted to say: "If we want to think about saving, then we have to use the "irreducible matrix" and ~~~~" Midland, who was in a cold sweat with his palms, had to interrupt: "I know, it is used to search for other people's fat and people's ointment." But we can't go out and kill them. If we can't get gold, we won't be able to fight the war. ”

"There is always gold. Dong Hezi muttered: "Under the rule of the duke, there are many rich peasants and rich people in the city, and there is still a lot of gold. Midland also knew, but she was a little worried: "But there is no safe way to get their gold, and it will definitely not work to be forcibly requisitioned." If we borrow money from them~~~ it will seem that we are already weak. At this time, if the royal capital or those foreign forces have any more moves~~~"

Dong Hezi smiled: "Taishang, I don't know it, secondly, I praise it, and secondly, I am afraid of it." Why do you have to be feared? Wouldn't it be better for them to dominate them without knowing them?"

Silverarmor has been troubled lately. As governor, he was always surrounded by grievances, such as the small people complaining about rising food prices, the rich complaining about high taxes and corrupt officials, the officials using sabotage to protest against his restrictions, and the corrupt officials locked up some of them. But it caused a series of troubles - including the sharp fluctuations in the price of vegetables in the city and several leaks of government information. I also know with my ass: this is the force behind those petty officials who are making trouble.

And what makes him even sadder is that the people who replaced those petty officials are not doing better. In fact, they are afraid of their heads and feet, and they are doing even worse! Eighty percent because they are afraid of the local rich gentry. What's worse - these forces are pervasive, and it seems that there are quite a few people in the Doge's Mansion who are their eyes and mouths. For example, the attendant next to him is recommending wealthy foreign businessmen of unknown origin with his mouth: "They have very rich experience in market operation, if we outsource the city management to them, we can save a lot of management costs, and even reduce taxes." ”

"Can this also be outsourced?" Silverarmor really wanted to say, 'They are here to manage the city, what else do you want us to do?' but the attendant next to him said with confidence: "The officials are too lifeless, and they are too closely related to the local landlords. It is necessary to have energetic organizations from other places come in and stimulate them. Let's spend the catfish theory, too. It's the quickest way to solve the problem, and the taxes are lowered. The people will embrace you with joy. ”

"It's not good~~~" Silver Armor Gongzi really couldn't make such a big determination. But the words of the squire were even more encouraging: "What is this. Kan Ruimaia has outsourced some of his military and tax functions to private individuals. Liberalization, revitalization, and fair trade. And it's their responsibility to be responsible. ”

I always feel that these people are unreliable. The young man of silver armor thought so, but then thought about his poor control power, called the governor but could not control the basic shape of the city, although there was a noble saying 'noble people are not the party'. But this time tossed down. Only then did I find out: this is! The result of the group is that there is not even a real usable person around me!

Perhaps the elemental pastor was right: human society has been organized since the beginning of time. The right thing to do is to adjust the organization. And anti-organization is doomed to a dead end. It's quite appropriate to be a clay icon. The ideal is very skinny, but unfortunately the reality is always too plump.

After sighing, the silver armored prince still summoned the two big merchants. Sure enough, he has an extraordinary aura and capable eyebrows and eyes! The secretaries behind him are more than five. When we talk about it, we are all in order, and when it comes to measures, we are in order. And the abundance of theories is like the water of a great river. I am very impressed by the silver armor boy, maybe with these catfish, it really works!

So these two wealthy foreign businessmen stayed in a luxury hotel three blocks away, and exchanged views with the silver armor prince at any time to deal with major affairs. And on the third day after that, in a newly renovated quiet manor outside the city, the bright light of 'otherworldly teleportation' appeared in the expensive metal array, and out of it came the six-stringed young man and a group of people. Having been ordered, they changed into their native clothes, mounted their prepared horses, and galloped towards the Duke of Van Dolon. Once in the territory, they went their separate ways. And the task of the six-stringed youth is to apply for a new chamber of commerce, and to strive to be their propagandist.

This chamber of commerce is located in a small manor on the outskirts of a medium-sized town, and in the middle of several unusually thick trees there is a simple but clean large courtyard, which is the station of the chamber of commerce, which is completely different from the other chambers of commerce stationed in the city. The reception staff outside was quite enthusiastic, but as soon as they stepped into the courtyard, the purgatory blood in the body of the six-stringed piano was beating violently!

Temple Altar!This is a Temple!!Damn!

He almost turned around and ran, but as soon as he turned his head and caught a glimpse of the large branches jutting in from above the courtyard, he immediately noticed something more unusual - as if he was surrounded. After a momentary pause in his footsteps, he continued to walk hard: I have the protection ring and the magic thorn on my feet, and the Sun Church in the royal capital can't find out, how can this small temple find out?

Sure enough, the others and the hidden altar didn't react. The interviewer is a priest who hides his identity, although he looks like a country contractor, but the fluctuations of divine power on his body can't hide the purgatory blood in the body of the six-stringed instrument. However, this pastor is at most of an average level, and he has no great skills, and after the interview, he appreciates the ability of the six-stringed instrument and is ready to report to his superiors. After the interview, he said to the six-stringed piano: "Work hard here, our development potential is great." ”

After coming out, the six-stringed piano with a cold sweat behind his back dared to hide behind an earthen wall, and used the secret method to visually observe the large courtyard and the five or six trees surrounding the courtyard, and saw the faint light of the natural gods. Could it be the men of Sivanus or the god Mekelly? What are they doing in this place?
