Can you live forever

Chapter 366 Living to death, big and small cycles

"First of all, there must be a well-developed astronomical calendar in order to guide agriculture."

"Tycho, the father of astronomy who was later admired by the Xiluo people, was actually a flaw in the time of his appearance. Complete astronomy did not appear until the [-]th century. Before that, he did not have the ability to guide agricultural production."

"If anyone here understands the current calendar of the Xiluo people, they should understand that the current calendar of the Xiluo people has an error of ten days."

"what does that mean?"

"It means that planting according to the calendar will be extremely bleak!"

"In a place where the land is barren and the calendar is in a mess, how can agriculture be developed? Without a sufficiently developed agriculture, how can we pay the system costs of the imperial court? How can we support craftsmen? How can we support scholars?"

"From the three generations, the earliest knowledge was only passed on to the feudal aristocrats. During the Warring States period, a hundred schools of thought contended and began to spread among schools."

"Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, there have been aristocratic aristocratic families, as well as poor families made by those declining aristocratic families, which still maintain the cultural context."

"Until the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the imperial examinations were held to select scholars. Apart from the evolution of the system and the replacement of classes, what was more important? It was technology, productivity, and more agricultural surplus to support more scholars."

"To the extent that we, Ming Dynasty, and today's common people's children can seek fame and fame in ten years of poverty!"

"Compared to the vast reading community, those who have been admitted to fame will always be a minority! Not everyone is an official! Those who participate in all kinds of social activities after reading and literacy are the source of technological progress!"

"It's Cultural Abundance!"

"The whole society is a building, and agriculture is its foundation. Without a well-developed agriculture, all development is out of the question, and the development of science and technology and industry, in addition to the development of agriculture, also needs...unification and centralization."

"Only by unification can we guarantee a vast territory, a large population, and smooth transportation, so that we can exchange what we need and have prosperous commerce."

"The prosperity of commerce and trade can lead to the concentration of capital."

"But compared to the concentration of capital generated by commerce, there is a more efficient way, that is-centralization."

"The Qin Dynasty built the Great Wall, Chidao, Lingqu, Efang Palace, and Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum in just over ten years. So many large-scale projects directly drove upstream and downstream industries, resulting in a technological blowout. This is the capital intensity brought about by centralization!"

"The end of the Qin Dynasty was not just because of the death of the first emperor, but also because of this capital intensive!"

"Of course, what it concentrates is not the capital of the people, but the capital of the rich. Therefore, as soon as Qin Shihuang died, there would be an uprising by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. the same."

"They overthrew Daqin and 'averaged' the capital."

"The capital that belonged to them was taken back from Qin Shihuang, and then transformed into a family of the Han Dynasty."

"They started to go on to develop science and industry."

"But this time it's different. What Qin Shihuang took away was the capital of the rich, but they were different. What they took away was the capital of the common people. It was not only the acquisition of land that was plundered, but also the increase in capital density that led to industrial development. Industrial development promoted industrial development. Capital densification."

"Under such a cycle, urban and rural capital began to be extremely unequal."

"Money is not wealth. Currency is the quantifiable power of this society. Although the centralization of power since the Qin Dynasty has led to non-quantifiable wealth is the main part, but only the quantifiable part is enough to influence society."

"For people."

"Food is a necessity, and its value cannot be low. However, compared to food, a piece of porcelain, a hairpin, a piece of clothing, a bag of tea, a bottle of soy sauce, pots and pans, and a boat and carriage Yu, which price is not higher than grain?"

"In life, basic necessities of life, clothing, food, housing and transportation, in all aspects, with the development of technology and industry, the most important food, the price is getting lower and lower."

"To the extent that food is the most important thing, but those who farm are the poorest."

"Since ancient times, how much is a farmer worth a year with a strong laborer farming? It's not worth much. Even a family's main income is earned by women's weaving."

"But can you simply calculate economic accounts?"

"Is the head of the family a woman?"

"neither."

"Because the poorer you are, the more you understand that food is the most important thing, and a full stomach is the foundation of everything!"

"Food has its own price, but as the capital in the city continues to increase and the industry continues to develop, a large amount of capital is earned by the industry."

"The property of the whole society is constantly serving the industry."

"Businessmen who make money through industry will obviously not stop there. They will make more money, invest in more industries, and continue to make money."

"And with such a disparity in 'power distribution'."

"The more farmers produce, the more they are exploited. Thousands of words converge into one word... cheap grain hurts farmers."

"They are able to exploit technology and industry without bloodshed."

"Farmers, on the other hand, have to work hard to produce, because if they can't keep up with the pace, life can't continue, and they are forced to owe debts and sell their fields, they can only go bankrupt completely, sell their children and daughters, and sell themselves as slaves."

"Obviously, businessmen don't let enough go."

"Through the quantifiable power of currency, whether it is a merchant, a local gentry, or a court official, the quantifiable and unquantifiable power are all being exploited and trying to have more power."

"All the costs are being transferred to the land, to the farmers."

"Until... days can't go on."

"This is also the reason why peasant uprisings have never stopped since the Qin Dynasty and the unified dynasty!"

"You want to capitalize and grow the industry, and then continue to capitalize."

"And the peasants are getting poorer and poorer until they can't live anymore and become refugees. As more and more refugees, they must find a way out. They will first sell cheap labor to pray for a living."

"But even selling yourself as a slave is a luxury when labor is in short supply."

"When you have no food, you will understand how high the original value of food is."

"Obviously, the rich enjoy this state very much, so not only will they not stop, but they will intensify it. This has also resulted in the result of land annexation in the past dynasties."

"At this time, the key point comes."

"Our China has had the concept of the world since ancient times."

"The vast majority of intellectuals are those with vested interests, but there are always some who are not vested interests, and some of the top ones don't care about interests, but care about the common people in the world."

"Then, it's very simple."

"The combination of intellectuals and refugees is the beginning of a dynasty change."

"And what is the first thing to do when changing the dynasty?"

"Equal land free of tax! Rest and recuperate!"

"The essence of regime change is the equalization of capital, and the most important capital 'land' is averaged, which directly interrupts the process of capital densification, coupled with the destruction of wars, and the renewal of old interest groups."

"Industrialization, in the process of regime change, was substantially interrupted."

"But, it must be bad to interrupt?"

"Not really."

"Following industrialization, there is another thing, technology, and technology will be stored in the form of knowledge, so every time we experience major wars and chaos, we are poor and empty, but it only takes 30 to [-] years to return to prosperity."

"The rule of Zhenguan is a fact, the prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty is a fact, and the prosperity of Hongwu and Yongle in the Ming Dynasty is also a fact."

"Each dynasty is a metabolic cycle."

"New technology replaces old technology and constantly introduces new ones."

"This is also the reason why your Mohist school has a more systematic knowledge system, education system, and scientific research system, but it was completely overtaken by Ming Dynasty in the prosperous age of Yongle."

"Because you lack capital, especially state capital under centralized power."

"Of course, you have money."

"But your money can't be used in Daming in a big way, and you are not willing to invest like this. This means that you can't enjoy the distribution of power in the entire Ming Dynasty, you can't extract excess agricultural surplus, and there is no industrial foundation."

"So, you can only have knowledge in vain, and it is even difficult to transform it into technology."

"Because you don't need it."

"Only by understanding the relationship here can we clearly realize that since the unification of the Qin Dynasty, we have not only created a centralized bureaucratic monarchy, but also carried out 2000 years of industrialization in the form of metabolic cycles!"

"And we have not polluted the environment, nor changed the way of life in which man and nature live in harmony."

"But the road you are going to take is not like this."

"If you want radical industrialization, you will first ignore the scattered capital of the wealthy class and concentrate all of them together, and then carry out capital densification in a centralized manner, allowing the industry to develop unprecedentedly, and start extreme industrialization."

"Even if you use strong administrative means to maintain the balance between urban and rural areas, reduce the cost of rural areas, and keep farmers from going bankrupt."

"Not to mention the cost that is ultimately transferred to the environment."

"Just talk about the first problem you're going to face... deceleration of industrialization."

"Yes, as long as you maintain the gap between the rich and the poor and stop the increase in capital density, industrialization will slow down or even stagnate. This cannot be solved by regulation, nor can it be developed slowly at a fixed growth rate."

"You will find that all walks of life and all the mouths are crying for lack of money."

"Capital is needed everywhere."

"And you have no capital. At this time, if you don't transfer the price to the countryside and seize capital, you can only do one thing - issue bonds."

"Finance was born at this time."

"Borrowing money from the future to invest in industry, at first you may worry that this is drinking poison to quench your thirst, but the rapid development of industry will make you happy, but... what is the price?"

"Yes."

"When the cost is not transferred internally, or when the internal cannot bear enough cost, the cost must be transferred externally."

"At that time, what are you going to do?"

"Colonization? Financial hegemony, seigniorage collection, harvesting the global economy, transferring the price to other countries and peoples, obtaining their cheap labor and natural resources? Polluting their environment in exchange for their own development and enjoyment?"

"Of course you won't, because Jianai is the purpose of all of you doing all this."

"Love all living beings, not to mention you, even our dynasties and unified dynasties will bring the most advanced astronomical calendar and production technology to the temples in the court outside."

"How can you do something that is inferior to pigs and dogs?"

"But when you don't, you've ... betrayed the industry."

"Back then, industry was already a behemoth."

"So, what's the price? Juzi."

"That would be the collapse of the Great Qin Dynasty, a contradiction that the First Emperor could not suppress..."

"At that time, you asked me to come out to clean up the mountains and rivers, can I do it?"

"Don't believe me, Juzi, this is the truth."

"In the original historical trajectory, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Manchus sold their technical knowledge to the Xiluo people in order to jointly erase China's historical achievements and falsify history together."

"And get the technological fruits accumulated by China's industrialization in 2000 since Qin Dynasty."

"It took the Xiluo people 200 years to barely digest it. It is also because they are barbarians and have no morality at all. Therefore, when they transfer the price to the countryside during the process of industrialization, it is impossible for the peasants to revolt. If you succeed, you cannot change the dynasty."

"They're straight out of the metabolic cycle and into...cancerous industrialization."

"They kept transferring the cost. If the rural areas were not enough, they transferred to the outside. They began to colonize, began to massacre the aborigines, robbed them of their wealth, and robbed them of their natural resources. They almost killed the entire Northern Shangzhou."

"That's not enough."

"When the industry explodes faster and develops faster and faster, they need more capital. They start to rob each other, and they start to attack China to grab the world's largest... cake."

"then."

"They robbed the wealth and natural resources accumulated by the indigenous people in various regions of the world. They not only robbed the achievements of the industrialization of the Chinese civilization since the Qin Dynasty, but also robbed the wealth accumulated since ancient times from the hands of the Manchus. Zoom in, at least take away the wealth of tens of billions of taels of silver from the Qing Dynasty."

"Such a variety."

"With the strength of the whole world, the cancerous industrialization was completed, and the so-called industrial civilization was born."

"But they couldn't stop."

"In the early days, they robbed each other of capital, which triggered a world war. Later, they harvested directly through financial means. The wealth accumulated by the people of those developing countries for decades of hard work was looted to maintain their Prosperity and prosperity."

"They are constantly harvesting and sucking blood, but their desire is constantly increasing."

"Until one day, they can't suck blood, or when there is no more blood for them to suck, they will collapse, and solving the collapse is actually very simple."

"Reducing the population is enough."

"They self-destructively reduced the world's population to one tenth of its original size, or even less, completely disregarding technological development, regardless of the regression of civilization, and violently strengthening the concentration of capital."

"However, this is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst."

"Let's not talk about whether their strategy can succeed, whether they can fight against the world with their own selfishness, but what if they succeed? It reduces the basic resources occupied by human survival, and allows industry to gain capital density again. what's next?"

"They have to ask for more resources."

"When there is nothing left on earth, they start looking for the universe."

"But the premise is that he can complete the interstellar voyage after exhausting the earth's resources."

"However, at the start of their extermination of the human race, that was already a luxury."

"The decline of humanity can no longer support the advancement of science."

"In the future, will it be destroyed by a big war, or will it be submerged in the dust in constant decay, or will a new civilization begin to reincarnate, or will the natural environment's tolerance begin to backfire when the limit is reached?"

"There are many ways, but there is only one result...destruction."

"Big boy."

"This is what I see, the origin of industry, and the end of civilization after going off track."

"nature."

"At the moment when human beings are extinct, there will be a new 'peasant uprising' and the birth of a new big cycle. Instead of betting on that big cycle, bet on the survival of civilization to death."

"I would rather go slowly from the very beginning, on the right track, to seek the future of civilization."

"I don't want that sage to save China and be reborn from Nirvana."

"I want him to survive the survivors of the sixth life and lead civilization to enlightenment."

"This is my way, my life plan for 500 years!"
