wandering fairy

Rafenna asked curiously: "What's important? It's more important than the Emerald Star. Let me reveal a little bit." Immediately, she received a telepathy from Dong Hezi in her mind: "I can tell you, but don't tell me. Others—it’s a fragment, it’s said to be a fragment of the core component of the godly Anaxim. This matter is important, so don’t talk nonsense!”

Rafina gave a moment of 'oh', and also sent a message: "Is it a fragment brought by a person wearing a white dress and white gloves? This person went to the National Library last week to borrow the relevant information about Anaxim. books." Dong Hezi, who was silent on the opposite side, continued to telepathically say: "I haven't seen it before, the Apolis Association asked me to participate halfway. There is still a trace of spirituality on the fragment. It is probably in the core components. fragments, so the spark of divine nature in the body of the godly evil is preserved."

Rafenner asked curiously: "What have you researched now?" The unmoved Dong Hezi said in a heartfelt voice: "No, this matter is quite complicated, and it is not enough for the Emerald Star Mage to join. The result won't come out in a while. It's a pity that it can't be brought out, otherwise it can be compared and analyzed with Lelin's blue sword. The two seem to have some similarities."

After chatting for a while, things gradually settled down—Grimm was the boss, Rafenner was the chief financial officer, together with the Minister of Security Ponuk, a three-member leadership team was formed to determine the collective discussion of major issues and other matters.Of course, Xiandale, who got the news the next day, also clamored to go, but in view of her ostentatious appearance and overflowing love, she refused of course.

After the leadership team of the leather bag company is determined, it is time to determine the buyers and sellers.When Grimm brought some of Sherburn's lists to show everyone, he himself was a little surprised: "If Sherburn can get this list, the Sun King should be able to get it too. Why doesn't the Sun King do this business himself? "

Dong Hezi said casually: "Perhaps it is because people's thinking has not kept up with the development of the times. When he was born, the country was still a feudal kingdom. Suddenly it was unified into a real big empire in his hands. But, But he doesn't know how to govern such a country. His ancestors didn't leave him enough experience. More importantly - he has no team at all. It's like a rich farmer in the countryside who suddenly won a huge prize of hundreds of millions. Such a huge currency He simply doesn't have the ability and experience to deal with wealth, and he doesn't have a group of people to take care of it. The person who can take care of the money is a rural farmer similar to him. Then he will easily lose all the money in the end ah."

"In the past, this country was a feudal separatist regime. Lords and lords set up checkpoints everywhere to collect rent. A small caravan had to pay a few gold coins to stay in one place. The flow of materials was extremely difficult. To deal with this situation of heavy barriers , Each area will establish independent small manors. Each manor must have a full set of production and living equipment. For example, salt must be produced by itself or nearby, and it cannot be shipped from far away. Too high. But the quality of such self-produced salt is not very good. In other words, the manor economy is a last resort economic form under feudal separatism and tax barriers. At that time, the source of wealth was the physical wealth produced by the manor, such as wheat , soybeans, meat, etc. The second is the taxation from setting up customs and building cards, and the third is some temporary income. At this time, controlling the manor and the checkpoints will control the main source of wealth. This kind of thinking is correct at this time.”

"But when the Sun King broke the separatist regime, made the country's roads smooth, and the commerce and trade developed greatly, the situation changed immediately! Taking salt as an example, the manor no longer produced a lot of low-quality salt, but imported high-quality salt from other places for use. Other daily production The same is true for materials—the entire scale has expanded rapidly, and the volume of currency transactions has risen sharply. If the Sun King has a good business team at this time and can use the power of the government to intervene in the sale of materials such as salt, he can obtain huge amounts of currency. The right to distribute wealth, and only with wealth can one have the ability to reward and punish, and one can control the political power.”

"However, his thoughts are still obviously stuck in the past feudal era. First, he guarded a large number of manors to live. The manor economy is still the mainstream. At the same time, he lacks business talents to get involved in the salt trade. The soaring salt trade is controlled by middlemen. As a result, his own logistics power in this field and the wealth distribution power extended by the currency have all been left behind. What's worse-the manor is increasingly relying on foreign salt to survive, and no one wants to return to the original low-quality salt. Sun. Therefore, the manor has become more and more dependent on external salt, and even has to pay a high price in exchange for salt. The same is true for other material trade."

"When he discovered that the manor had to rely on foreign materials for survival and production. The foreign materials were controlled by middlemen, who sold them at high prices and hoarded them to force the manor to spend a lot of money to buy them. The profits were made by the middlemen who walked around. It’s too late. Because those middlemen have united with the bureaucrats everywhere. The same is true for other material trade. As a result, after only 20 years, his political throne has been entangled with vines, and the situation is getting out of control.”

"To sum up: on the one hand, the increasingly developed material trade has raised the standard of living of the society. On the other hand, it has caused the entire society to rely on these material trades to survive, and has to pay a huge price to fill the gaps of the material trade controllers." Appetite. Just like the serfs needed to spend a lot of labor to satisfy the appetite of the lord. When the lord controls the land, he controls the life of the serfs, controls most of the people under his rule, and controls the society. Now, Whoever controls the 'Material Trade' system. Whoever controls the lives of the people in the society controls the society."

"Society always develops very fast, and always leaves the thinking of most contemporary people far behind. The Sun King is still using feudal thinking to rule the great empire, and he controls everything by controlling the land. The important right to 'material trade control'. He got it all wrong. Huh, he told me that he admired Emperor Sluju, King Darshanlia, etc. Actually, what is there to admire about these people? Taking advantage of the momentary advantage to rise rapidly, but failing to establish a stable political structure, the country collapsed. In essence, it is just a smart + lucky upstart, and it is not a king's career in terms of fate and politics."

Rafenner asked: "He is now going to sell the manor and form an alliance with Paslig and the others. Has he changed his mind?" Living in the old thinking of "collecting land rent". In the past, the land rent was collected from the manor, but now it is collected from the wealthy businessmen. He still wants to make it easier. But he doesn't know that with the changes in the economic structure, he wants to control the political situation , we must control the financial situation. If we want to control the financial situation, we must deeply intervene in the whole process of production and commerce. You can't just sit there and eat rent and tax, but you have to be half a businessman to intervene in the national business system Medium. This time he wanted to see your business affairs, so he probably thought of this. It’s a pity that you, a person with no foundation, are allowed to do it casually. , just try our luck. However, we still have to prepare and show him."

Grimm was half disappointed and half excited: "In this way, our business will grow in the future. Maybe he will join in and let us share dividends?" Seeing Dong Hezi nodding, Rafenner on the other side became worried again: "Then Will others say that we are competing with the people for profit?"

But Dong Hezi sneered and said: "When a regime is about to rise, the wealth it controls must account for a large proportion of the total wealth of the society. When a regime is about to collapse, the wealth it controls must account for a large proportion of the total wealth of the society." It occupies a very small proportion. In the feudal regime in the past, land was the biggest source of wealth, and the king occupied a large and good land. Isn’t that “competing with the people for profit”? Now, when you collect taxes, it is not “competing with the people” If you don’t fight for profit, those wealthy businessmen and middle-level bureaucrats will fight for it. Is this considered to be “competing for profit with the people”? The key is to see if you have enough participation ability. If it is enough, the country can be firmly controlled. Now His Majesty finally wants to play the tricks that Britain played back then."

Once the seller is found, the next step is to find a buyer.After arranging them to search for manpower, Dong Hezi turned around and went to his room. After activating the gadget given by the demon in a washbasin filled with clear water, the water in the whole basin gurgled quickly under the effect of magic power. The ice bulged, and a small, sharp and ferocious icicle stood upright, like a small cold altar erected in the room.

On the icicles of the altar, a group of fist-sized strange lights showed the head of a ferocious Chilu demon like an ice ant, and its yawning sound: "Heh" it rubbed its crystal-blue glowing gem-shaped compound eyes and said: "Long time no see. Have a business to do? Hurry up if you want to do it. We are going through a reorganization here. Maybe I will be transferred. It's better to be a short-term business. I can't make a big deal."

Dong Hezi asked: "Didn't you just say last year that the big leader was broken, and how to adjust the team. Why is it reorganized now? Could it be replaced again?" Seeing that Kirumo Hudson yawned again and said: "It's a long time ago. Last time, that guy has already fallen into the Mechanics Fellowship next to him. Hahaha, he tossed about on the stage, and took down us low-level clerks with a ruthless look. What happened in the end? Not yet Toss yourself to the side. Hahahaha, now the top is going to do centralized management, reduce intermediate links, and reduce middle-level leadership positions. Squeeze seven or eight departments into one department, and then cut off leadership positions .So, everyone is fighting for the remaining position, salary, and power, and basically no one cares about the big things. Okay, okay, tell me quickly, I am very busy."
