Be a detective in Yuanshin

It's just that she still didn't understand, according to what Li Shuo and Ning Guang told, it was obvious that everyone begged Li Shuo to sell them insurance with money.

And if there is a problem with the customer who bought the insurance, I believe that Li Shuo should also pay the compensation according to the contract, otherwise the Emperor Yanwang will inevitably punish him.

In this way, shouldn't Li Shuo's reputation in Liyue be very good?

Why did he still become the target of public criticism in the eyes of Liyue people?

Li Shuo smiled and said, "Before answering this question, I don't know if Ying and Paimon have heard a saying that history is written by the victors?"

"I, I, I have heard of it." Paimon raised his hand and said, "What does Li mean to say, because Li failed, the word of mouth has deteriorated?"

"No, the truth is quite the opposite. It failed because word of mouth got worse, not because word of mouth got worse because of failure."

Li Shuo paused at this point and said: "In addition, Paimeng should know that most of them are not interested in the truth, and the channels for them to receive information are often hearsay, or small talk after dinner.

Therefore, it is better to say that history is written by the victors than by those who have the right to speak. "

Chapter 40: The mistake is that the salary is too high

The so-called history is written by the victors. This sentence means nothing more than that the victors have the right to speak, and they can transform and distort the real history as they please.

In the Tivat continent, this sentence has almost been recognized as the truth.

However, Li Shuo, who was once in the 21st century, has a new understanding of the so-called winner after experiencing the bombardment of various Internet information such as public knowledge and marketing accounts.

Whether the history seen by the historian is true, and whether he will record the history he saw without selfishness, and whether the history book can be passed on for thousands of years is only the first step.

How do experts and professors who have the right to speak in later generations interpret history books, and whether they will deliberately distort history for the sake of sensationalism or attract people's attention, reverse the verdict, or include a large number of their own private goods in the interpretation? This is the second step.

Finally, the interpreted information will continue to be disseminated through text, video, and marketing accounts. This is the third step.

Regardless of whether those emperors in history who "respect themselves to the four poles and hang down their clothes to control the eight wastes" can use their power to change the records in the history books, but it is certain that he will never change the interpretation of these historical materials by later generations.

A piece of real history, a real story, from appearing to being recorded to being disseminated, and finally delivered to the audience. winner.

Therefore, in Li Shuo's view, in many cases, it is not the winner who has the right to speak, but the one who has the right to speak is the winner!

The precursor to the failure of the winner is often the loss of the right to speak.

Li Shuo smiled and said to Paimeng and Ying as a matter of course: "In Liyue, the Liyue Seven Stars, as the rulers, have almost absolute right to speak.

Under such circumstances, isn't my word of mouth good or bad depending on their thoughts?

I remember... At that time, the Liyue Qixing gave me the title of...using the contract to deceive the kind Liyue people, and plundering countless Liyue people's hard-earned money with empty hands and white wolves.

The reason is that in just a few years, I amassed billions of moras without doing anything, and these moras are the hard-earned money of the Liyue people, the moras they worked hard to earn.

So I, Li Shuo, am a robber, a liar, a vampire crawling on the Liyue people, and an insatiable parasite. "

Although Ying and Paimeng felt a little depressed when they heard it, Li Shuo spoke in an exceptionally relaxed tone, without any resentment or dissatisfaction at all, as if he was talking about other people's affairs.

This is not pretending to be strong, but simply relieved, or it doesn't matter.

As a loser, Li Shuo was still able to exit the stage with dignity, which shows that he must have more than one hole card in his hand that is useless.

Considering that Li Shuo's character has always been "a gentleman takes revenge from morning to night", if he still has a grudge, he would have already launched various means of revenge.

Ying raised her chest and said in a decisive tone: "I believe in Li! Although I can't think of a reason to refute this slander for a while, I believe that Li is definitely not what Liyue Qixing said."

"Cough cough."

Hearing Ying's words, Ning Guang stretched out his hand to cover his lips, coughed twice to remind him: "I must emphasize that I was not Liyue's Tianquan star at that time."

I won't take this blame!

Seeing Ying and Pai masked in embarrassment, Ning Guang pursed his lips and said, "Also, let me answer Li Shuo's doubts. First of all, Li Shuo is neither a robber nor a liar.

Although he seemed to have accumulated a lot of wealth in a short period of time without paying anything, Liyue Seven Stars knew at the time that the appearance of Li Shuo and Insurance had promoted the economic take-off of Liyue City in a short period of time.

Don't be surprised, it's just a simple thinking trap.

Calculated in numbers, Li Shuo did nothing, and the production wealth was zero, but he made a lot of money. Where did the money come from?It must have been taken from the Liyue people who bought the insurance.

So it would be felt that Li Shuo was cheating and robbing to make money from the Liyue people, but Li Shuo was indeed creating value in the introduction.

To give a simple example, because the risks encountered by cargo ships going out to sea are too great, the huge risks make the businessmen who originally planned to do the ship running business choose to give up.

Every time he goes to sea, he only needs to pay an insurance fee. If the sea trip goes well this time, the money he gets from the profit will be far greater than the insurance fee. If there is an accident, Li Shuo will give a lot of compensation.

Because there is insurance to help cover the bottom line, some businessmen who are still on the sidelines put down their worries and start running the ship.Invisibly, this has played a role in promoting Liyue's development, and even increased Liyue's jobs, which of course created value.

In addition, in Li Shuo's own words, if you give me [-] million moras, even if you don't do anything, the moras you earn each year will be more than ordinary people who work hard for a lifetime.

Li Shuo has accumulated a lot of wealth in a short period of time like a bank by selling insurance. Although there are still many accidents that need to be paid by him, the money will not go moldy in his hands before that. I didn't think about building Qunyu Pavilion like I did.

I remember that during that time he used this money to invest in many projects, not only helping Liyue train a large number of skilled workers, but also investing in the research and upgrading of merchant ships in the dock, improving the performance of merchant ships, and reducing the risks encountered by merchant ships when they go to sea.

During that period of time, Li Shuo picked up those projects that he wanted to do but had to shelve due to lack of funds, and invested a lot of manpower and material resources to promote research and development.

It is even said that in those years, after the King of Yan invited Xian Dianyi to come, he was very satisfied with Liyue's development, and it was rare that he did not make any suggestions. "

Paimeng and Ying glanced at each other, thinking, according to what Li Shuo said, the King of Yan should be working as a technical advisor beside Li Shuo at that time, right?

Paimon hurriedly asked, "Why did the Liyue Seven Stars target Li? Is it because Li made too much money?"

Li Shuo shook his head and said: "Don't underestimate Liyue Qixing. As a representative of major chambers of commerce, although there will definitely be friction in the face of interests, it is not just because I earn more money that I want to fight with me. It's up to you.

If I really want to say that the reason should be... The treatment I give to the employees is relatively too high, which led to a large number of businessmen protesting together, right? "

Li Shuo turned his head to look at Ningguang, who nodded and said, "At that time, Li Shuo's treatment for employees was at least twice as high as that of ordinary businessmen in the world, and even two to three times higher for some relatively dangerous occupations." Later, this incident also became the beginning of Liyue's great turmoil."

Chapter 41: Don't Think I've Lost

"I don't understand, I don't understand at all!"

Paimon is almost confused, the salary is too high, what kind of problem is this!

Besides, isn't the money all Li Shuo's own? What kind of treatment does he offer his employees, and what does it have to do with Liyue Seven Stars?

Li Shuo looked at Paimon's bewildered look, and couldn't help laughing loudly: "Hahahaha, there's nothing incomprehensible about this, it's normal.

People often suffer from inequality rather than scarcity. For those employees who do not work in my hands, it is normal to feel dissatisfied when they think of everyone doing the same job and earning half the money as a result.

On the one hand, they will force their employers to improve their remuneration, and on the other hand, they will complain about me.

There is no doubt that for some people, seeing others around them make money is more uncomfortable than losing money themselves.

My behavior has violated the unspoken rules of business, and it is bound to offend a large number of businessmen.

These merchant classes are neither willing to improve the treatment of their employees, but also worried that these employees will leave their jobs and come to my side, so they must unite to deal with me.

In addition, as my business grew bigger and bigger, it began to crowd out other people's markets, and the contradictions began to intensify further.

I remember that during that time, I could always see some low-level employees united to strike and march, demanding to improve their treatment, which was quite chaotic anyway. "

After hearing this, Paimeng thought about it carefully, and felt that according to what Li Shuo said, he was indeed pretty bad.For some small workshops, their interests are limited. If they increase the staff's price significantly, they may not be able to continue working.

But on the other hand, Paimeng felt that what Li Shuo did was right. The employees were so tired, so hard, and dangerous every day. Isn't it natural to raise their salaries for them?

Paimon held his head and kept shaking his head, saying, "Paimon thinks Li's actions are right, but he also thinks that Li's actions seem to have hurt many people."

"Pimon's thinking is actually very normal. If you look at anything from different angles, you will get different results."

Li Shuo simply gave an example and said: "For example, Liyue used to write on bamboo slips. Bamboo slips are not only cumbersome to make but also inconvenient to carry. So the appearance of paper is relatively an improvement, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"It stands to reason that this obvious progress must benefit Liyue and even the entire Tivat continent, but for those who make a living by making bamboo slips, because of the appearance of paper, they may lose the space they live on. Ordinary and even wealthy families directly become impoverished and even heavily in debt.

The emergence of every kind of progressive force will inevitably overwhelm the afterglow of the old era, and those people in the old era must do their best to prevent it in order to maintain their current wealth and status.

On the contrary, it is easier to develop in places that are not hindered by these old forces. This situation is called the advantage of latecomer.

Liyue's commerce and trade are too developed, coupled with the guidance of Yan Wang Dijun, for 700 years, Liyue has maintained the vanguard as always, but it has also left Liyue with too many invisible hidden disadvantages.

As I said, Liyue's trade and commerce far exceed those of other countries, so the turmoil caused by reforms here is even more unpredictable. "

Speaking of this, Ning Guang sighed and said, "This turmoil has almost directly or indirectly affected the entire Liyue, and even the Immortal and the Rock King have been alarmed."

Ying frowned and said, "Then...how did it end?"

"Under the initiative of Liyue Seven Stars, Liyue merchants and Liyue people reached an agreement that the merchants will increase the salaries of all Liyue employees by 20.00% to 5.00% depending on their positions."

"There are still 5.00% hundred!?"

Both Ying and Paimeng were startled, Li Shuo only increased the salary of the employees by [-]% at best.

"Yes, after all, he is the leader of every place. If he doesn't improve his salary, how can he help his employer to appease his subordinates?"

Li Shuo recalled it carefully and said: "In addition, through the agreement, the price I set for employees must be consistent with the market.

But allow me to improve the treatment of employees through other methods such as bonuses.By the way, I have been given a bunch of hats, such as malicious competition, market destruction, I forgot the specifics, there must be dozens of them in total, right? "

"Then Li compromised?"

Ying and Paimeng felt that with Li Shuo's character, he would definitely not agree to such a request, right?

Li Shuo shrugged his shoulders and said, "I didn't compromise, but Liyue merchants and employees all compromised except me."

fluorescent:"..."

Paimon: "..."

Although it was impolite, the two of them really felt aggrieved when they wanted to swear.

Seeing Paimeng and Ying's expressions, Li Shuo laughed and joked, "Don't always show such an expression, it will make you ugly... Do you think I have failed?"

Ying and Paimon looked at each other, and said incomprehensibly, "Didn't you fail?"

"What have I failed? The treatment of Liyue's employees has been improved collectively. This is an indisputable fact. My initial goal has been achieved."

Speaking of this, Li Shuo suddenly remembered Che Guevara's famous saying: After we leave, they will build schools and hospitals for you, and raise your wages, not because of their conscience, nor because they have become good people, but because we have been here.

Li Shuo came back to his senses, folded his arms around his chest and reminded with a smile: "Also, don't underestimate the Liyue Seven Stars, they are not as stupid as you imagined.

In fact, on this matter, Tianshu and Yuheng of the Liyue Seven Stars are on my side. In addition, most of Kaiyangxing's business is done with Qianyan Army, so I chose to remain neutral in the end.

Only Tianquan, Yaoguang, Tianxuan, Tianji and other merchants have been trying to suppress me.Later, Tianquanxing was killed by our joint efforts, and the position was finally handed over to Ningguang.

I'm telling you this to say, don't think that the Liyue Seven Stars are monolithic, and don't think that the Liyue Seven Stars are all short-sighted and can't see clearly the future development trend.

Not to mention that Ningguang also took advantage of this opportunity to make her debut, and with the support of more and more people, she gradually formed her own chamber of commerce.

So don't think that I have failed. In fact, in repeated confrontations, although my reputation seems to be getting worse and worse, in fact, I am getting closer to achieving my goal step by step. "

Ying hurriedly asked, "Then...why did it fail in the end?"

"That's right, that's right, he said he had a fight with Ningguang..." Paimon said as he secretly glanced at Ningguang next to him, seeing that Ningguang was not dissatisfied, he finished his sentence in peace.

Li Shuo curled his lips and said after a long silence: "Because... the immortals have intervened!".

.......

Say something:

First, I plan to clean up the book review area, and some posts will be deleted.

I am writing novels in Hedgehog Cat, and I have never deleted a post or deleted a post.

I think that whether it is praise or belittling, it is the reader's due right.

It’s just that this time there are a bunch of people in the book review area purely to bring the rhythm of the game, there is no discussion on the book, and there is no point in keeping it except to pollute everyone’s eyes, so I think it’s better to delete it.

Second, some readers have reported that the recent chapters are rather depressing. I understand this very well. In fact, it is not easy for me to write it myself.

But everyone must have discovered this after seeing this. This story is advancing layer by layer, and there must be all the foreshadowing.

Otherwise, the subsequent development of the plot and the catharsis of emotions will be meaningless.

Of course, when the plot with Ningguang ends, the tone of the story will change, and it should become more and more cool, and the rest should be full of cool rhythms.

In addition, there will definitely be a lot of sugar, mainly because at this juncture, there is really no way to force the sugar.

I hope everyone will grit their teeth and bear with it for a few chapters.

Third, my account is not tied to a mobile phone, so I really can't reply to private messages.

In the end, because of Daozuma's opening, almost none of the novels of "Mond" and "Liyue" map were spared, and all of them plummeted.
