Chapter 131 Let go
Du Zhongxiao took a sip of tea and Su Song said, "Yun Judgment, why do you say this today?"
Du Zhongxiao said: "In a few days, I will go to Zaoyang to manage the farming business, and the affairs of the Iron Supervision will be handed over to Zirong. But before leaving, I was always a little worried and hesitant. There are two things that I am worried about. One is that the Iron Supervision is now, whether it is steel or various machines, they are just starting to get on the right track, but they are afraid that there will be repeated mistakes and all their previous efforts will be wasted. The second thing is that the Iron Supervision has been around for a year, not only you and me, but also Judge Liu, and people who work in the Iron Supervision. These people are the heroes who founded the Iron Supervision and cannot treat them badly."
Speaking of this, Du Zhongxiao sighed: "The first thing is easy to say. Zirong came to the Iron Supervision with me. I know everything and will not be poorly regulated. The second thing is the second thing. I have been thinking about it for a long time. Not to mention the honor and wealth of the heroes who founded the Iron Supervision, they must at least have no worries about food and clothing, so that their descendants will not suffer from poverty. But after thinking about it, there is no way. If you can't do what you want, I will complain a few times."
These days, Du Zhongxiao has been worrying about this matter. This is the seed of industrialization. Those who work hard with him are the heroes in promoting industrialization and deserve corresponding treatment. Moreover, the industry must be promoted smoothly, and practitioners must be more attractive than the income and status of other industries, forming a virtuous cycle. This progress is best to be gradual, without a huge impact on society, and move forward step by step towards the industrial society.
I am a Jinshi and have been an official for nearly ten years. I have a deep understanding of the thoughts, culture, systems, etc. of this era. I also have knowledge from my previous life and have learned a lot of productive production relations and feudal capitalism. I have a high position and have a thousand years of knowledge. It should not be difficult to achieve this. But after thinking about it for several months, Du Zhongxiao finally found that this was an impossible task.
The history of later generations cannot be learned from. The European Industrial Revolution was established in a disorderly state. The first countries, especially Britain and France, did not bring about improvements in people's lives in the early stages of the industrial revolution, and even social progress was extremely pitiful. The ruling class tried its best to compete for colonies, and industrialization was just a tool to seize colonies and plunder colonies. Typical examples are the textile industry, on the one hand, seized colonies and planted raw crops such as cotton, and on the other hand, the industrialized domestic textile industry smashed the colonies and semi-colonial markets with costs and violence, and obtained excess profits. These excess profits did not allow the people of the country to
The efficiency of the people's benefits is not high. Compared with the late-research industrialized countries, one is the Prussian region, and the other is the second-rate Tsarist Russia for a long time. Why? Du Zhongxiao couldn't explain it clearly, and there was no need to figure it out. As long as you know that colonies are not a necessary condition for industrialization, it is okay to have both pros and cons for the industrialization process. The most important thing is that while plundering the colonies and increasing oppression of their own people, this route is not desirable in China. No matter whether it is the Song Dynasty or any dynasty, it is otherwise a self-digging grave. China is too big, and burying bombs in its own country will inevitably be blown to pieces.
The knowledge in books cannot be fully believed. All theories and systems after industrialization, including various ideas, ideologies, and various predictions of the future civilization of mankind are all based on the process of the European industrial revolution. Europe itself is a muddy pool, and it is not funny to say that it is the future of mankind. Taking that set to cut foot and walk, not to mention being ridiculed by later generations, this era is probably not possible at all. Du Zhongxiao did not have an obsession with white Europeans, and would not be like those rich people. He ran to get close to the white royal family, thinking that he was rich and was also aristocrat, but his back foot was on the territory of others, and he had sex when his compatriots were reluctant to do so, and he was made to pieces.
If you are a human being in two lifetimes, you can never fight for wealth and prosperity for a lifetime, and you can't do it if you are a beast in your arms.
But to deduce the system by yourself, Du Zhongxiao does not have the ability, and no one in human civilization has the ability. If you know that it cannot be done, do it without talking about your success or failure, honor and disgrace, and let the country and nation miss an opportunity to move forward, Du Zhongxiao cannot forgive himself.
It is often said that economics is to make cakes and divide cakes. The start is low, and then make the cakes first. Du Zhongxiao once thought that even when he established an Iron Supervisor, he wanted to do this. But when he was about to let go and treat those ordinary people who had been working with him for a year as his brothers and sisters, empathize with them, and want to plan for their future, he realized that this was another plausible sentence.
You can eat more cakes when you make a big cake? No matter how you divide it, you must first ensure that the cake shop can sell you the same amount of cake. Otherwise, with your countless efforts, the cake shop will only sell cakes to those who can't die of starvation. You can divide it as much as you like.
This is universal poverty. If you can't divide the cake, you can't get rich. The cake shop first deducts the raw materials. In your previous life, housing prices were the hottest topic in society. Many families have worked hard for decades, and all their savings have been poured into the house at once. It doesn't count as a result of savings, but they have to bear debts of 10 or 20 years. Houses are so expensive? Or is the location so valuable? Or will the savings be replaced by a house that won't depreciate?
How high is the housing prices? Du Zhongxiao has heard too many theories and arguments. He thinks many statements make sense and often worry about gains and losses for a house. What are the m1, m2, currency and money are released again, what are the changes in policies, where purchase restrictions are restricted, where shanty towns are renovated, first-tier and second-tier cities are always value-preserving, and school district housing will never rise and fall, which is dazzling and overwhelming.
Today, Du Zhongxiao has to deal with this problem by himself, and only then does it realize that everything is a phantom. People are just blowing bubbles. Your joys, angers, sorrows, and happiness are just colorful bubbles. How high will housing prices be? No theory or policy is reliable. There is always an invisible and intangible line. What is this line? That is, the vast majority of working people have no spare money in their hands. They fluctuate around this line. In the process of this fluctuation, they are just adding some small investments to let the working people adjust their wealth. You buy stocks and financial management is investment, and opening a store to do small business is also investment. The rise and fall of housing prices and the profit and loss of investment are maintained.
Money, from gold and silver to paper, to a number in the computer, is only a sign of the place of people in society.
Whether it is the name of a slave society or a feudal society, or a capitalist term, what remains unchanged is the general poverty of the working people. Part of the hard work of workers gives themselves a better life, and part of them strengthens the chains on themselves. This chain will become more and more tight, and more labor income is taken away by others. If it cannot be supported, it is a crisis or a chaos. The prosperity after the chaos does not eliminate production capacity or expand the market, but the chains on workers are loosened.
Workers are generally poor, so who can make money? Make money with money, and use capital to make money, no matter whether the capital is a factory or a land. Of course, there is power to make money, and there are idle and vibrant social organizations to make money. Even small owners, small shop owners, small Baotou and others cannot escape the general poverty, but it is just a difference between extreme poverty or food and clothing. You have not yet gotten rid of the low-level interest of labor. Whether you are engaged in physical or mental labor, you are all part of the poor.
There is only one country and a nation in the world. For thousands of years, even if it falls, even if it falls temporarily, it can always stumble and get up. After getting up, it can still lick the wounds, continue moving forward, and even create glory. In the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was ruled by foreign races for more than 200 years, and then it was hit by a major change that had not been seen in three thousand years and was stepped into dust. The Chinese have a demon. If we go back to the past, as long as we invent something before others, as long as we establish a system first, as long as we kneel down and lick which class first, and even as we occupy a place first, we can avoid the tragedy in history. Some people even believe that the reason for the tragedy is because of the culture passed down by our ancestors, and even the bloodline passed down by our ancestors. If we go back to the past, we will first dig the culture of our ancestors and replace it with other people's culture. It is not enough to dig the roots of culture, but we must also change our own bloodline.
Du Zhongxiao also has such a demon. He was thinking hard about his own way. In the end, he found that there was no such way at all, at least not now. Even in an Iron Supervisor, he could not give the most humble fairness to those ordinary people who worked with him. He couldn't do it, and he really couldn't do it, and he was a little unwilling to give it to those ordinary people who worked with him.
For Du Zhongxiao, the people around him are his own flesh and blood compatriots. He cannot create or develop an idea or a system that allows some people to drink the blood of others forever. If he can only do this, he will do whatever he loves. He should not let a person who is a man of two lives do it. He has been a man of two lives, even if he is pitiful, he should leave a little self-esteem.
A single iron supervisor can build a few railways to conquer the world? The Han Dynasty sealed the wolf's servants and Yan Ran once thought it could be done, but in the end it would be destroyed. Invincible in the world, and there was also internal dying.
If there is a way to stand firm, it can only be to always be supported by the people, always breathe with your own people, and share the same destiny.
But Du Zhongxiao did not have a way to do this, and neither the past nor the future taught him such a way.
He once thought he could bring light to the world, but found that darkness is eternity, and at best he was just a lamp. Instead of complaining about darkness, just move forward with the lamp.
Du Zhongxiao has been worried these days because he is leaving the Iron Supervision. He himself knows that this time he leaves, unless he joins the government, he may never be able to take care of it again. This is a seed of industrialization. He is always afraid that others will mess it up, and will not take root and sprout, and will not grow up with a strong and strong growth.
