Dimensional Codex

After a day of investigation, the three girls took the bus back to Clos Bell, and then they were in the office and saw Fang Zheng again.

"I have read your report."

Fang Zheng put down the report in his hand and nodded to the three girls in front of him.

"Then, now talk about your own views, who will come first?"

"I have a question."

As soon as Fang Zheng's voice fell, I saw Ai Lei raising her hand in a hurry, and Fang Zheng looked at her with interest, and then nodded.

"Well, you say it first."

"Mr. Fang Zheng, I would like to ask, why does Clos Bell declare all the land to be owned by the state? According to my investigation, many people in Mainz are worried about this. They are afraid of this. This land no longer belongs to them, and it may face the threat of being driven away anytime and anywhere... I think this is the main reason for this conflict. Because from the conversation with the residents of the small town, it can be seen that, They originally had doubts about this policy of Crossbel, and your plan to force the mine to increase their anxiety..."

"good question."

Hearing Elei's inquiry, Fang Zheng once again glanced at the serious and serious girl with long blond hair and a nice face.

"Then have you read the relevant policy explanation?"

"Yes... The New Deal of Clos Bell shows that Clos Bell's land ownership belongs to the state, and individuals only own land use rights and house ownership... But I don't understand. Isn't the house built on the land? You do this. If you do, it will only make people more uneasy..."

"Hehehe, it is true."

Founder nodded.

"I don't deny that your fears are justified, because in this way, I do have the power and methods to forcibly expel them from this land. For example, I want to plan a piece of land for public use, but If they refuse to give in, I will use coercive means at this time."

"This……………"

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Ai Lei was stunned. She originally thought that Fang Zheng would explain a few words, maybe her thinking was wrong, but she didn't expect that Fang Zheng would admit it directly? However, before Elei could respond, Fang Zheng asked again.

"So, do you think the land is owned by the state, or the land is owned by the individual, which one is better?"

"Of course it belongs to the individual!"

This time Elei answered without hesitation.

"In this way, anyone can own their own land and real estate, and they have a home protected by the law, so you don't have to worry about it... Isn't this beautiful?"

"Well, it's really beautiful."

Founder nodded.

"If I am just a businessman, then I agree with this."

".....................?"

"Ms. Elein, I remember... You are from Carvard, if I remember correctly, Carvard's law is that land belongs to personal property?"

"Yes it is."

"Then I ask you, have you seen homeless people on Carvard Street?"

"…………………"

This time, Elei was speechless, she was stunned for a while before she stammered.

"That...There are indeed vagrants, but every country has similar... And most of them are because of business failures and other reasons. I think..."

"Hahaha."

Listening to Elei's explanation, Founder chuckled. Then he reached out and knocked on the window.

"Miss Elaine, do you know the biggest difference between me and the following people?"

"...............? Sorry, Mr. Fang Zheng, this............I am not very clear."

"Very simple, I am richer than them."

"…………………………"

Perhaps Fang Zheng said too bluntly, Aleen, Alfin and Miaojie all showed subtle expressions at this moment.

"Don’t look at me like that. I’m telling the truth. And that means that as long as I have money, I can buy the land I want. If it’s in Kalvard, I can buy one. Block or half a city."

"But... most people don't sell their homes just for some money."

"Of course, but I have money, I can harass them in various ways. For example, I can first buy the sites of other people who are willing to sell houses, and then cut off the path of those stubborn people and turn their homes into islands. At that time, do you think they will sell it or not? Or I can give them loan sharks, and then they can't repay the money, won't that piece of land belong to me?"

"This...This is too much!"

Hearing this, Elei clenched her fists hard.

"It's wrong to do this!"

"From a moral point of view, but from a legal point of view, since that piece of land already belongs to me, I can do whatever I want. I can also build a wall on it to enclose other people who are unwilling to move. At that time, if they moved or not, they had no choice but to choose."

While talking, Fang Zheng spread his hands and looked at Alein with a smile on his face.

"You see, this is the power of capital, the power of money. Miss Elein, rich and ordinary people, is not a kind of person. When you say that anyone can own their own real estate and land, feel at ease on it. In life. I think you may not have considered this."

"This………"

This time, Elei was speechless, but soon she came back to her senses.

"But what is the difference between this and the nationalization of the land?"

"Of course, it is very simple. The greed of capitalists is that they need to gain more power, and as the ruler of a country, I don't need to increase capital by this means. On the contrary, I need to coordinate internally. Although In theory, I can indeed drive away those people and forcibly demolish their houses to occupy the land. But what about those people themselves? Rich people don’t need to consider these issues. They just need to take the land and drive them away. But the country can’t. As you said, if they lose their residence, they will become a social instability factor, and may even cause crime or terrorist activities. As the ruler of the country, of course I will not allow it. This kind of thing is happening in the country."

"Woo...Woo..."

Facing Fang Zheng's answer, Elei frowned, trying to say something, but didn't know what to say.

"And in this way, as a ruler, I can also exercise my rights and bring fairness to the people. If the kind of thing I described before occurs in Crossbel, I can definitely rule that their actions are invalid and illegal. Because in Crossbell, they only have the right to use the land, not the ownership. And when buying the land, they must explain the way the land is used, such as the land used for farming, and it cannot be used to dig pits or build walls...otherwise It’s breaking the law. This also means that they can’t do whatever they want.”

"That's how it is said, but..."

"Think about it carefully."

Looking at Alein, who still looked distressed, Fang Zheng chuckled. He had been in Kalvard at first, and he naturally knew the situation there. To put it bluntly, Kalvard is very similar to the United States, both advocating individual rights and freedoms. This is why Kalvard’s business and trade are prosperous, but the reason is black to death-basically go to Kalvard to do business in other places Countless people suffer.

For example, Ling's father is one of them.

And Ai Lei has been growing up in this environment, and his thinking mode must be the same as that of capitalism. Suddenly hearing this statement, it is simply broken and completely subverted, and it is only natural that he cannot accept it for a while.

So Elei frowned and stepped aside, and then Miaojie was the second one who came over.

"Mr. Fang Zheng, I have talked with the families of the miners in the town of Mainz. They are very happy that their husbands and fathers don't need to continue to risk going down the mine, but they are also very worried about their next source of livelihood. Many The miners said that those brand-new machines are too complicated, and it is difficult for them to learn and master..."

"You have also seen the solution I provided."

"Yes, miners who are willing to continue to work can apply for new positions and study. If they cannot adapt, they can retire early. You will pay a pension and severance pay..."

"Yes, that's it."

Founder nodded.

"As you said, although the new mining machine is more convenient, it is not something ordinary miners can casually master. If they really feel that they can't master it, then they can make another way of living. I will give In addition to a sum of money, they will also give them various policy preferences, such as introducing them to other jobs, and if they open a store, there will be a tax discount."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Miaojie's azure blue eyes blinked, and then she looked at Fang Zheng with a strange curiosity.

"But, what if they accidentally spend the money?"

Facing Miaojie's tentative inquiry, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes.

"That is their own choice, Miss Miaojie. I can guarantee that this amount of money will be enough for them to live a relatively prosperous life for a long time. During this time, they continue to look for new ones. Work, it’s their own business. If they work hard and have a new start, then it’s good. But if they spend time and drink and splurge without a plan...that’s also their freedom."

Having said this, Fang Zheng slightly cocked the corners of his mouth.

"I gave them a choice, and they have to bear the consequences if they make a choice."

"I understand, thank you Mr. Fang Zheng for the answer."

Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Miaojie also smiled, and then respectfully saluted and stood by. And it was not until this time that Alfin came over.

"So, Alfin, what do you think?"

Looking at the emperor in front of him, Fang Zheng asked with interest. The latter hesitated for a while before speaking with some anxiety.

"Excuse me, Mr. Fang Zheng, I think the reason for this protest is probably because...they are scared."

"Oh?"

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard the answer from the Empress Alfin.

"Go on."

"Yes it is."

Alfin nodded, and took another deep breath.

"I think... they are simply afraid of being replaced. After all, they have been miners for generations. Some people and even three generations of grandparents have worked in mines. They used to think that the world would be the same as they knew. Set in stone. Miners are always miners. They can mine ore through the inherited knowledge and tools in their hands, but... suddenly, all of this has changed."

Having said this, Alfin clenched his hands.

"I don't know how to say... It's like... They are no longer the only choice..."

"That's right."

Fang Zheng snapped his fingers. It should be said that she was the emperor of the empire, and her position was different, and she looked at things from different angles.

"This is the essence of this protest. Although what you two said is one of the reasons, Alfin has grasped the essence."

"Is that right?"

"This……………"

Hearing this, Elein and Miaojie also frowned and began to think.

"Their greatest anxiety and fear is here. In the past, they didn't need to worry about this kind of problem at all, because mining in the underground is the responsibility of miners, and it is something that only miners can do. Indeed, the work of miners is very dangerous. The income is not huge, but this is a'work that only they can do' — it is this kind of pride that has supported them to persevere from generation to generation."

While talking, Fang Zheng picked up the teacup.

"However, as I told you before, productivity will develop. When a new relationship of production replaces the old one, within a certain period of time, because it is suitable for the development requirements of productivity, the development of productivity will be affected. The promotion function can liberate the productive forces that were constrained by the old production relations. But with the further development of the productive forces, the production relations will become unsuitable from the original suitable, and even gradually become the shackles of the development of the productive forces. At this time, the contradictions will intensify. Eventually lead to revolution."

Having said this, Fang Zheng took a sip of tea and continued on.

"This is the same as the empire... Alphan, if you are the owner of that mine, when you find out, other mines have already started to operate 24 hours a day, without the need to prepare food and worry about casualties. , A machine that can mine a large number of mines, but you still use a three-shift manual mining method. Do you think your ore will be competitive in the market?"

"……………………"

Alfin shook his head silently.

"Yes, so in order to catch up, you must upgrade your mines and use brand new machines. But... it doesn't matter to the miners, they don't care about the long-term profits of the mines and market competition. They only Knowing that because of a machine, I lost my job ~www.ltnovel.com~ and I can no longer return to the life I used to be familiar with. They can be replaced--just like nobles."

"Does it...does it really have to be this way? Is there no other way?"

"This is the contradiction between the economic foundation and the superstructure."

Facing Alfin's question, Fang Zheng shrugged.

"The superstructure is built to adapt to a certain economic foundation and serves the economic foundation, just as the aristocracy is also built on the control and manipulation of the majority of the lower classes. However, when the lower classes have gradually gained power and knowledge With the development of productive forces, the economic foundation will begin to change. And the relations of production--that is, the relations between classes can no longer adapt to the development of productive forces. As a result, the superstructure and changes in the development of productive forces require changes in the economic foundation. It will form a sharp confrontation, and ultimately, through the social revolution, the original superstructure will be fundamentally changed. Then a new superstructure will be rebuilt on the new foundation."

Said this, Fang Zheng spread his hands.

"This is the nature of this protest, and the nature of the civil war in the empire, do you understand? Alfin?"
