Chapter 2925 Cricket Fight
"Making money through war?" After seeing the future, Sokka only felt that these people deserved to die. Anyone who thought about making war money should go to hell.
But Sokka knew that he was already dead at that time, and his future would be left to future generations. Later generations had no choice but to go into battle bare-chested and fight bloody battles because they had no resources to allocate.
"This is wrong. We should go all out and nip those guys in the cradle. As long as we master the method of unified purchasing and marketing and the sales of bulk commodities, then those guys will not have the resources to launch a war." Soka knew that resources must be It's in your own hands. If it's in the hands of others, those guys will definitely start a war.
"Don't forget about the Fire Nation, so it's not that there will be no war if the resources are in the hands of the official, but the official must take a stand and propose a peaceful culture that everyone accepts. As long as everyone accepts it, then this culture will be If we continue to pass it on, anyone who violates this culture will be ousted. We must let everyone know that stable development is the best way to improve productivity. Although war also has a certain role in promoting the development of productivity, overall stability is better for economic development. good."
Some people may say that war is also crucial in promoting productivity. Without war, there would not be so much technology. Europe has so much technology because everyone invests in the military. For example, computers were originally created to crack the enemy's passwords. For example, GPS was invented for precise strikes...
In short, there are too many technologies invented as a result of the war effort. Let’s talk about the Fire Nation, they also invented various technologies through war.
In fact, this is not the reason for war, but the reason for being war-oriented and concentrating all resources and talents on war. Just like the Middle Ages, it was religion-oriented, and all talents and funds were concentrated in religion, so there were Bruno and Copernicus.
Therefore, in peacetime, as long as the development of productive forces is oriented and talents and resources flow into the scientific field, technology can naturally be developed without the need for war.
Moreover, in war, the cost is recovered through plunder, while in peacetime, trade is enough. War is unilateral robbery and cannot last long, while trade is about exchanging what is needed and can last longer.
Therefore, it is not war that promotes the development of science and technology, but war-oriented concentration of resources and talents that promotes science and technology. The same is true for peace. As long as it is productivity-oriented and resources and talents are concentrated, great development can also be achieved.
But to play a guiding role, resources must be concentrated and cannot be dispersed, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve results. That is, we must concentrate our efforts to do big things.
Guan Shanhai's unified purchasing and marketing is to provide guidance. First of all, by stabilizing prices, talents and funds will not be hoarded, and time will not be wasted on buying and selling. Naturally, the position of a businessman will not be the first choice.
If prices are stable and everyone's lives are stable, then talents and funds can support scientific and technological research in the longer term.
"The work of guidance is very important. The Fire Nation is a good example. They have completed the official mountains and seas and can effectively allocate resources. So when it was directed to the war, all the people were given a shot of chicken blood. Now it is the same when it is directed to the civilian field. As long as everyone realizes that peace is more conducive to development, the people will kill anyone who wants to start a war in the future. "Du Lan said that as long as we have good guidance.
And orientation is a kind of culture that is generally accepted by everyone.
"Then what if an industry can't absorb so many talents?" Soka said: "War has limits of expansion, so there must be limits to the direction of peace. If everyone goes in the same direction, wouldn't it mean thousands of troops? Crossing the single-plank bridge will definitely not be able to attract so many talents.”
"At that time, a public-private partnership will be needed. This is not the content of Guan Shanhai, but the content of "Lun on Salt and Iron."" Guan Shanhai solves the problem of orientation, and "Lun on Salt and Iron" explains how to form a public-private partnership. A plan that parallels enterprise orientation and enterprise orientation.
"When development reaches a certain level, private companies need to attract talents, but they must set a limit, that is, they cannot interfere in the trading of bulk commodities and do not give them the opportunity to disrupt society." Duran said: "In short, you can do the specific things yourself. Just figure it out, I’m just making suggestions.”
Whoever controls the trading of bulk commodities controls the lifeblood of the economy and can lead the direction.
However, this commodity has also changed. In ancient times, it must have been salt, iron, grain, and cloth. In modern times, commodities such as oil, natural gas, chips, and grain have become commodities. Salt and cloth are no longer so important due to the substantial increase in production.
Therefore, generally speaking, commodities are directly related to the lifeline of the economy. If they are out of control, they will lead to social unrest. They are social needs, but supply and demand are prone to fluctuations, and they require official management.
The management is also simple, hoard when it is cheap and sell when it is expensive. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, we were already very proficient and discovered the periodicity, such as grain, three years of good harvest, three years of flat harvest, and three years of poor harvest. During the good harvest, grain was stored, and during the bad harvest, grain was released.
For example, when there are natural and man-made disasters, we can use work-for-relief, allowing people to build city walls, dig canals, and build palaces, and exchange their labor for food.
Sokka nodded after hearing this, knowing what he should do. He must make An agree with Guan Shanhai. Only after Guan Shanhai can a direction be formed. Only by forming a direction can everyone benefit from peaceful development, understand the value of peace, and form a culture.
The most important thing is the direction, which determines the flow of talents and funds. If there is no direction, there will be people with ulterior motives who will try to use war to make profits.
Sokka was serious this time. Before persuading An, he first persuaded his sister, Toph, the newly succeeded Fire King, and his uncle. Anyway, all the people in An's circle were persuaded. This time he was serious. If An was indecisive again, Sokka would deprive An of his position as Speaker.
It would definitely be very ugly at that time. Sokka did not want to develop to the point of a coup, so he hoped that An could understand that Guan Shanhai must be done, and the official must have the power of guidance.
An found that everyone was persuaded by Sokka, and he was a little angry. After all, he felt that he had done nothing wrong. Why did Sokka force him? Why did he force himself to do something he didn't like?
For the future route, the two comrades stood on opposite sides.
An believed that the current good situation should not be destroyed for the possible crisis. But Sokka accepted Duran's deception and believed that it was necessary to form a direction, create a culture, and look at the problem in the long run.
Without the present, how can there be a future?
Without considering the future, the current situation is only fleeting.
An and Sokka both make sense. Duran said that they should fight and fight, and he has prepared popcorn. One is a supernatural power, and the other is a mortal. They are all for peace, but because of the different routes, there is a conflict, so they should fight to their heart's content.
"The fist is the romance of men. Put the feelings and will into the fist, and then hit the opponent hard, hit hard, uppercut, left hook." Duran wanted to go down and help them fight.
This is like fighting crickets. Duran puts characters with clear positions together and lets them fight against each other to satisfy his own bad taste.
