Chapter 1445: Rich Country’s Greatest Asset (First Update, Please Subscribe)
hope!

This is exactly the message those people are passing on to the common people.

Listening to his son's words, Li Yian just nodded and said:

"Hope, that's their greatest value! But they don't know that this hope... may just be the result of someone's manipulation."

Li Yixuan was stunned by his father's words and said:
"Someone is manipulating this? Dad, are you saying that someone is deliberately creating all this?"

Someone is deliberately creating all this!
His son’s question made Li Yian fall into deep thought. The reason why he had such a feeling was that some things were really too "magical".

What kind of magic makes a new group of wealthy people emerge in Da Piaoliang every few decades? Their appearance conveys hope to people - as long as you work hard, you will succeed.

Is this human manipulation?
Or is it just a coincidence?

According to common sense, after the rich get rich first, wouldn't they weld car doors to prevent the later rich from emerging?
But for Da Piaoliang, this doesn't seem to be the case.

From the 19th century to the present, and even into the st century, there are always new people appearing on their rich list.

Their success seems to be the American dream and the embodiment of success.

But what about in other countries?

For example, in Japan, South Korea, and of course some European countries, the "early rich" have always controlled everything. In those places, the early rich have already welded the car doors shut. At least to a certain extent, even if there are "late rich", they are obviously dependent on the "early rich".

But in Da Piaoliang, there will always be some new rich people emerging in a cycle of one generation, and they seem to be independent.

Just like Edison was born a poor boy, steel tycoon Carnegie was also a pauper, and Ford was also a farm boy, not to mention Rockefeller.

Even in the new century, how many of those Silicon Valley billionaires didn't start out as garage kids?

In this way, the "late rich" appear again and again and never stop.

During this process, people got to know Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, and Elon Musk, so...

Where have the “first rich” gone?

Where have the “early rich” who are good at welding car doors gone?

They never disappeared, they just faded into the background.

In fact, the seemingly glorious late-stage rich have only been creating value for the “early rich”.

This is the truth!

Looking at his astonished son, Li Yian suddenly realized that this was not a question his son needed to consider, at least not now.

So he made up for it:

"I mean deliberately, which actually means the rich, or the owners of wealth."

"The owner of wealth?"

Li Yixuan said with some confusion:
"How did they deliberately create all this?"

Li Yian pondered for a moment, then asked:
"In this world, there are poor people and of course rich people. This is the basic rule of this world. So here comes the question..."

Looking at his son, Li Yian asked:

“So, what is the most valuable thing for rich people?”

Facing his father's question, Li Yixuan thought for a while and then said:

"money?"

After a slight hesitation, he said in an uncertain tone:

"healthy?"

"No!"

Li Yian shook his head and said:

"Neither! The most valuable people are actually the poor!"

"Poor?"

Li Yixuan was puzzled:

"How could this happen?"

"Can't figure this out, huh?"

Li Yi'an said:
"It can be magnified. If a rich person gives a poor person 10,000 yuan, the poor person will be grateful. But what about 100,000 yuan, 1 million yuan, or 10 million yuan?
When he was poor, he became rich.

When everyone, or rather, all of humanity, becomes rich, what do the rich have left?

If there were no poor people, the rich would no longer be rich!
The greatest asset of the rich is not money, but the poor. The poor are the greatest asset of the rich.

Therefore, if the rich want to maintain the best life and buy the best services, the most important thing is not to make enough money, but to maintain enough poor people. "

Li Yixuan was stunned by his father’s words. He looked at his father in astonishment and didn’t react for a long time.

At this time he heard his father talking:
"In fact, the same principle applies to countries. For rich countries, the biggest asset is also poor countries! Poor countries are the biggest assets of rich countries. Because of the existence of rich countries, rich countries can obtain resources and other services in an extremely cheap way.

But poor countries will always develop and become rich, at least to a certain extent. But this is obviously against the interests of rich countries. Therefore, for rich countries, how to ensure that poor countries continue to be poor or remain poor forever has become their top priority! "

After saying this, Li Yian's eyes widened suddenly. Although it was a bit counterintuitive,... this idea really made him shudder.

What kind of idea is that?
The idea is very simple, it is the so-called "secret organization", if it really exists.

Then the only purpose of its existence is to ensure one thing - to ensure that there are enough poor people and enough poor countries in the world.

Only in this way can their wealth be real wealth. If the so-called countries all transform into Nordic-style countries, then does wealth still have any meaning?

In Nordic countries, wealth, to a certain extent, has almost no meaning.

“In other words, their goal is to… ensure that a poor country emerges every few decades?
Just like the South American financial crisis and the Southeast Asian financial crisis that broke out one after another. Capital uses its power to make one or several countries fall into poverty, harvest and plunder wealth, while ensuring that there are more poor people for the rich to exploit? "

Li Yian frowned, is this possible?
He had no answer in his heart, all of this was just speculation.

Although it is just a hypothesis, it provides Li Yian with a new perspective.

To a certain extent, he even understood why new wealthy people appear in the United States every few decades. They appear to give hope to the poor and to use their success to tell the poor - you see, as long as you work hard enough, you can also succeed!

It is precisely because of this indoctrination that Americans are immersed in the so-called American dream, and when the rich enjoy all the privileges, they take it for granted.

Because those privileges are due to money, not birth or blood. They would even say that money is the fairest thing in the world. As long as you have money, you can enjoy everything. But you don’t have money... first look for the reason in yourself and see if you are not working hard enough.

In short, relying on the so-called "American Dream" and the new rich people that emerge every few decades or every generation, the illusion of an "American Dream" has confused everyone. In this process, no one has even questioned whether society is fair or not.

Different from the hatred towards the rich in some places, there wealth is something people yearn for and desire. They do not hate the rich, but only hate their own fate!

"The so-called 'American Dream' is just a mental anesthetic!"

"Yes, it can be understood that way, because most ordinary people need mental anesthesia! And this is also conducive to social stability and development."

In this way, Li Yian and his son walked and chatted, talking about various issues.

Looking at his son who was taller than him, Li Yian wanted to ask about his relationship problems, but he didn't say a word in the end.

In fact, no matter what choice he makes for the future, it is his own choice.

Thinking of this, Li Yian naturally thought of Peggy who was far away in New York. She had planned everything for the children, even their relationships.

Even Stana and Jillian, who are also in London, have planned everything for the children.

Without exception, she chose wealth and status for her children, which was actually an arranged marriage.

Perhaps, this is the key to the so-called "family" continuing for hundreds of years!

But there is also a prerequisite, that is, the wife must be able to give birth. The most fundamental reason why many families eventually disappeared in the long river of history is... they cannot give birth!

It's just like a wild guess, he only has one son and one daughter. To a certain extent, the decline of the Kennedy family is directly related to the fact that he has too few children.

The same is true for the Mellon family. If there were not so few children, how could Peggy choose them?
"In the future, these children should at least start with six children..."

Thinking about this question now, it seems a bit too far-fetched.

In fact, whether it is a family or a country, fertility is the most fundamental thing. Without fertility, everything is empty talk, or will eventually die out.

It is also through reproduction and marriage that those hidden families become larger and larger, with large families devouring small families, and they become richer and richer in the process.
And these "families" ultimately control everything. They control most of the wealth in society. They will not even appear on the rich list, but the wealth they possess is unattainable or even unimaginable for ordinary people.

They have not only wealth, but also social status and privileges. But who will notice them?

Just like the Mellons now, they are barely mentioned. They have successfully faded into the background.

"Yes, it's them!"

Li Yi raised his brows slightly and his expression became serious!
It doesn't matter what kind of people an interest group is made up of.

But one thing is certain - driven by interests, those families themselves are part of the interest groups.

They are more eager to manipulate, their manipulation, their control, is essentially for wealth!
The pursuit of wealth is their instinct, not just greed for wealth, but also an instinct for survival.

Because the family needs to continue!
And what does a large family need to continue?

Of course it’s wealth!

They must have enough wealth to maintain a luxurious life. Therefore, for these families, they must not only find ways to maintain the continuation of the family, but also find ways to maintain the appreciation of the family's wealth.

And what are they going to do in this process?
Is it to transform into a greedy beast to devour everything, just like the chaebols in Japan and South Korea, to control all the wealth, to devour everything that may create wealth, and ultimately to let the wealth flow among a few big families, turning the entire country's people into their workers?
Or it is to give people a false impression of success by discovering some potential investment targets and using the success of those investment targets to increase social wealth. Then, by controlling them, while holding the wealth behind the scenes, it creates a false impression for the world.

Just like in Da Piaoliang's case, every generation, there will always be some lucky ones of the era.

Everyone thinks that they can also succeed as long as they are favored by fate, but they don’t realize at all that those so-called lucky ones are actually just puppets pushed to the front by the big families. Those lucky ones may be billionaires or politicians.

When they are out of control, billionaires may become paupers overnight because they lose to their own destiny due to the volatility of capital.

There are countless people like this. Every time this happens, people always sigh at the cruelty of capital. A company worth billions may be eliminated by the market overnight.

And what about those politicians?

For various reasons, they may become a target of public condemnation overnight, or even be executed in public. It's just a wild thought.

Suddenly, at this moment, Li Yian finally figured out the rules of the game, or rather, the rules of the game of wealth and power.

While creating wealth, we must also learn to create poverty!
The reason why wealth is wealth is because it is set off by poverty!
