Douluo See You For a Long Time

Chapter 70 Textbook Dystopia

Under Cheng Ying's encouraging gaze, Tang Chen frowned slightly and said, "I was surprised when I entered the city, why so many people gather in the city, shouldn't these ordinary people in theory be farming in the manor of the soul master?" ? How can you feed so many people without farming?”

Tang Chen's question pointed to the essence, and it also caused everyone to think. Before they could come to a conclusion, he continued: "From this, I can draw a conclusion, that is, there is indeed such a method on this continent. Or a grain that can feed so many people.

You have also seen potatoes and corn in the teacher's manor. With the yield of these crops, combined with composting and other planting methods, it is possible to feed so many people under the large-scale popularization.

But here comes the question, why is there enough food to feed a large number of people, but most people in the city are still starving when they are running for their own livelihood? "

Tang Chen gave everyone a little time to think before continuing: "Since the problem is not in production, it must be in distribution. It is also about work. Why do some people not have enough to eat, why do some people have enough to eat, why do some people not only Can eat enough, but also continue to accumulate wealth.

I think Fourth Junior Sister has also thought about this issue. It seems fair to exchange labor for wealth, but in fact it is unfair. The wealth that can be exchanged for the same labor is different.

It's like a businessman only needs to use his lips, or escort two batches of goods to earn a fortune that the most ordinary dock porter may not earn in a year.

This kind of gap also exists on our continent. Although I don't know what the reason is, I can be sure that the weird situation on this continent is the result of this gap being exaggerated to a certain extent. "

When Tang Chen said this, Chao Tianxiang couldn't help but frowned: "If this is really the case, what's fair about it? Why isn't the equivalent labor exchanged for the equivalent wealth? In this case, wouldn't everyone be able to To be rich, this must be the life that most people want, right?"

Tang Chen thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know why it has become like this, probably because the people who control the distribution of wealth are stronger! The bottom line has no ability to resist and it has become like this."

Among the little ones next to it, only Bo Saixi could understand a little bit. Bingdi and Meng Shu had already rolled their eyes, they couldn't understand anything, and they were waiting for the food to be served.

Chengying coughed, and stopped the two who wanted to argue: "You two can discuss this issue, which proves that you are both thinking, which is very good!

But you all have problems with your concepts. First of all, Tang Chen is able to recognize the root of the social division of labor that leads to the gap between rich and poor. This is very powerful. In this era, not one in ten thousand people can see through this point.

But you underestimated the strength of the bottom. Perhaps the gap between ordinary people and Titled Douluo is huge without firearms, and the resistance to the top is weak, but you ignored the low-level soul masters at the bottom. The interests are the same as those of ordinary people.

And have you ever thought about the reunification of the mainland, what will happen to these soul masters who were used to conquer the world? Will the country still support them? But if you don't keep them, these people have martial spirits, organization, and strength, and they will use their own hands to get what they want.

If they hadn't discovered the New World, there wasn't a pressure relief valve, internal conflicts, and a civil war would be a matter of time. If the current social form is unreasonable, it must have collapsed long ago.

Besides Chao Tianxiang, what you object to is actually the scissor difference between handicraft industry and agriculture. Because of technology, monopoly, capital, and many other reasons, handicraft industry has a considerable degree of scissor difference to agriculture. The same labor can exchange several times the grain.

This is indeed a problem in social distribution. Someone once thought about the same problem as you, and then they invested all their property and tried to build a place called Utopia.

There, the sages and the people plow and eat together, and the price is the same, and the equivalent labor is exchanged for the equivalent commodity. "

Hearing this, Chao Tianxiang couldn't wait to ask: "What happened to Utopia? Living in such a city, can everyone be happy?"

Chengying did not announce the answer, but continued to tell the story: "Utopia initially attracted many poor people, and also attracted some young people who were dissatisfied with the status quo in society. They built a city of their own, and all decisions must be won by everyone. agreed.

As a result, their factories got an eight-hour work system, and the agricultural products can be exchanged for the same daily necessities that they recognized. Even if they are disabled or unable to work, the city will provide them with daily necessities to support them, and they also try their best to play their own value. . "

Chao Tianxiang listened fascinatedly, as if she had already seen such a world of Datong: "And then? Where is this utopia?"

"And then...then they went bankrupt, and the originally united citizens complained to each other, falling apart and becoming a very typical failure case in history.

Their factories can't completely compete with other factories because of high salaries, and they don't have the ability to produce all the necessities of life, so they have to buy a lot of things from the outside world.

This caused the wealth of the entire city to be beyond its means, and it didn't take long for it to be unable to continue operating due to debts, and eventually fell apart completely. Cheng Ying shrugged and gave Chao Tianxiang an unexpected answer.

"But... why is this happening? Isn't this the wish of most people?" Chao Tianxiang pursed her lips.

"Do you think that the will of most people is correct? Don't be naive. I don't want to work but want to get more wealth. I believe that most people have this desire. Is this will correct?

Be sober and forget about this unrealistic dream as soon as possible. Utopia does not exist. Social division of labor is an unstoppable trend. If your pursuit is to build a real utopia, it will completely destroy you. "

Chengying looked at Chao Tianxiang seriously, making her eyes flicker and dare not look at Chengying.

"Hey! Forget it, it's hard to convince you of this kind of thing, let's do it! There is no our ethnic group on this continent. As a teacher, I just used this place as a testing ground to let you see how ugly capital can be. "Speaking Chengying stood up and walked towards the door.

"Eh? Wait a minute! Have you finished your meal?" Bingdi and Meng Shu almost spoke in unison.

"I came in just to sit for a while, as for eating...forget it! I'm afraid you'll throw up." After saying that, Chengying had already walked out of the wine shop, and Bingdi was still a little unwilling to give up, and picked up the unknown substance from the wooden tray and tasted it. After one bite, the white eyes rolled on the small face and rolled under the table.
