Chapter 923 The Status and Significance of the Three Witches of Money

In Beta City Ecological Park, a seemingly inconspicuous pine tree was buried in a deep pit.Green light overflowed from the back of Li Qi's hand, and fell onto the tree, where delicate branches and leaves sprouted, swaying to salute Li Qi.

The last guardian ancient tree of the Forgotten Forest fell into a long sleep here. It is unknown when it will wake up and what it will look like after waking up.

The druids, rangers, and rangers carefully filled the soil, and at the same time were delighted that the ecological park welcomed such a distinguished guest.Li Qi turned to look at the three girls with different shapes and appearances, and was delighted that Fei Gong and Chilian had obtained a new witch.

This is really the Three Witches of Money...

Through soul inspection and various tests, their original priesthood was confirmed, and then Xia An and that who supplemented it, Li Qicai figured out why they divided the inheritance of the elf goddess of happiness Innoris into three.

Just like the belief that "beauty is justice", the elves' definition of happiness is very philosophical.Innoris' belief in happiness is formed by the fusion of the original priesthood of satisfaction, self-control and exchange. It is the reserved and superior introspection of the elves when they are the elders of the spirits and the children of the world.

From the perspective of scientific communitarianism, Innoris’ belief in happiness is in direct opposition to Beja, the goddess of wealth in the elves. Be careful of the self-vigilance of fate's backlash.Such a belief requires the elves to abstinence and sharing, and to pay more attention to the harvest of the soul, rather than being lost in material wealth.

Now Tina, Timmy, and Nicole have directly separated the original priesthood in Innoris' inheritance based on different beliefs deep in their souls, and inherited a deeper and more essential power.

What Tina got should be "satisfaction", based on the satisfaction of money, which gave her various magic skills related to money.For example, she has a sensory ability similar to that of a treasure hunter, and can sense money of sufficient value in a wide range.

With all kinds of currency and jewelry in her hands, she can easily identify the origin and determine the value. She can also hide all kinds of money except Jinpuer more difficult to find, and of course she can also find money hidden by others.

This concealment ability is achieved by putting money into a specially opened space, which also means that Tina possesses the magic of space like the goddess of commerce.

Li Qi didn't even know how to connect her new priesthood with the Datongism belief, let alone how to name it. Could it be called... Squirrel Witch?
In the end, it was Aurora who suggested calling it "wealth", returning the word wealth to its original meaning, which just included the nature and ability of Tina's new priesthood.

What Timmy gets should be "exchange". She firmly believes that money must reflect value through exchange, and the basic principle of exchange is that money increases in value.Only exchanges that increase the value of money are meaningful, because this is the natural mission of the "market" formed by exchange.

Under the FCP's patriarchal economic theory, beliefs like Timmy's are downright poisonous weeds of capitalism that must be uprooted.

Fortunately, the crimson divine power merged with the only trace of conscience deep in her heart, which gave her a natural limit to her understanding of the "market".That is, the "market" must bring happiness to ordinary people, and any "market" that brings exploitation and suffering is evil and distorted.

This original priesthood not only strengthened Timmy's money-based prophecy ability, but also gave her a lot of magical powers.

For example, as long as she touches money, she can trace all the transaction links that the money has gone through since it was minted. The same goes for treasures that have served as money.

What's even more frightening is that she can even touch something to trace all the transaction links it has gone through, as long as it is a traded commodity.

The specific transaction person and information unrelated to the transaction cannot be known, but the transaction link itself contains indescribable value, and this is also the ability of the high-level priests of the business temple.

In addition, Timmy also obtained a number of subspace-based space and teleportation magic, such as opening up a public subspace warehouse, establishing a transmission channel, and based on direct teleportation, etc., copying a small part of the space magic of the goddess of business .

This made Li Qi vaguely speculate about the source of the Goddess of Commerce's power...

Timmy's title is easy to decide. When the market is extended to business, she becomes the Scarlet Business Witch, a role that is just positive to the Goddess of Business in terms of the power of faith.

Nicole's situation is a bit complicated. She should have obtained the original priesthoods such as "self-control" and "abstinence", but her understanding of money and even business is completely opposite to Timmy's.

She recognizes the necessity of money and the market, but resolutely resists the value derived from money and the market, which does not condense the value of actual labor.To put it bluntly, she abhors "profit".She believes that money should only reflect the value of labor, and the market should only conduct transactions based on real needs rather than chasing profits.

Because of her special focus on value in money and transactions, Nicole has earned the title of "Witch of Value".

Nicole's magic is similar to Timmy's, but the details are quite different.

For example, she can trace the labor links associated with transactions such as money and jewelry. Because of her hatred of profit, she is more sensitive to transaction information than Timmy, and can evaluate the true value of commodities.At the same time, she also has the magic of summoning subspace creatures, such as the Bota worm, to send money, items, and even living people to complete the corresponding transactions. This is another type of space magic of the goddess of commerce.

Ignoring Tina's squirrel witch, the two priesthoods of Timmy and Tina are facing each other. This is the first time this has happened in Crimson Divine Power.

"Okay, back to the meeting..."

Li Qi greeted the Three Witches of Money, who were looking at the ancient guardian tree buried in the ground, with a somewhat dazed expression.With regard to their appearance, the CCP still needs to conduct in-depth discussions on the Datongism cause to re-unify their understanding.

In the meeting room on the highest floor of the central tower of the Pantheon, members of the Council of Cardinals and the Central Committee gathered together (hanging on the wall is counted) to discuss the changes caused by the three witches of money.

"It's a pity that Xiaohong is not here. Designers and guides are needed at this time." Looking around the participants, Li Qi sighed. The most regrettable thing is the small notebook in Xiaohong's hand, which is probably her real body.

With a tacit understanding, Aurora said proudly: "Seek truth from facts and adapt to local conditions. Even if there is no Xiaohong and her little book, as long as we stick to the correct direction, we will not make fundamental mistakes."

That's right, so everyone began to discuss the status, role and significance of the three witches of money in the crimson belief.

Tina, the witch of death, is also a squirrel... Oh, witch of wealth, this didn't cause much controversy.

Since even the "evil gods" such as Mengshen and Zhaishen can be integrated into the scarlet gods, they are constantly adjusting their direction in practice and playing an increasingly important role, and it is nothing to add a wealth fan attribute.

As long as it does not violate the fundamental direction of Datongism, and does not obtain wealth through oppression and fraud, such freedom should be tolerated by Datongism.

Aren't those lolitas and puppet mothers of Blue Dragon not the same as money fans?They are keen to exchange the earned contribution points into red coins, and then make a bed, showing the nature of the dragon.Didn't this happen to pull the blue dragon into the crimson belief system through Tina?
Nicole has gained everyone's unanimous approval. Isn't Nicole's value creed just the basic attitude that patriarchalism should have towards money and business?

Strictly control business, forbid money to increase in value through self-generated profits, thus sweeping all levels of society and even individual souls, becoming a monster with independent will.In the end, money only reflects the value of labor, and the market is only the goal of serving real needs. This is the consensus of FCC on business.

So Timmy became the focus of everyone's attention. Several pairs of eyes, whether it was the naked eyes of the conference room or the images of the remote participants on the wall, were full of scrutiny and even crusade. Timmy curled up his body with burning, Try to reduce your presence.

"I just feel... that since money exists, since it can have babies, that's its natural nature."

"If you had to kill its nature, it wouldn't be money."

"Since it exists naturally, it is the goal of people's efforts, and it will bring people satisfaction and even happiness, so we should make good use of its benefits and control its harm. Isn't this the right attitude?"

She is still trying to explain that she doesn't have a deep understanding of Fei Gong, nor does she know much about Datongism. Shu's wish for happiness allowed her to integrate the crimson divine power in the most fundamental direction.Compared to the crimson priesthood held by other witches, the connection is weak.

The old man Tarrence said: "From money to capital, plus private ownership, this is completely contrary to our patriarchal path, and it is also an evil order that we are committed to overthrowing."

At this time, Tarrence's attainments in the theory of Datongism were already very profound.After all, true knowledge comes from practice. The social transformation of Kester has given him a wealth of experience and a deeper understanding of the path of Datongism.

"Speaking of public ownership..."

Stan has always presided over civil affairs, and the combination of theory and practice is also quite close.

He said: "I remember that when Xiaohong talked about currency and commerce with the Cardinal, she also said that Datongism does not exclude the existence of the two, based on the road of Datongism is the sublimation of the road of capitalism, Datongism is free Freer in essence, I think money and commerce should play greater value in our system and reflect a greater and more positive force."

"The only question is the power of capital condensed by money and commerce. Is this power allowed by the Datongist road? Or is there a difference between the capital of a capitalist society and the capital of a Datongist society? If so , then the belief represented by the priesthood of Timmy is correct, and it must be accepted by us.”

Aurora immediately objected: "Capital is capital. How can there be any social capital? Capital is money that is separated from people and the will of the market. It must require private ownership, and it is inherently hostile to the public ownership foundation of Datongism."

"Stan, your thinking is very dangerous. Don't tell me what you are thinking about the Datongism market economy with Finn's characteristics. Our starting point is the initial stage of Datongism. The productivity we are constantly increasing is enough to leapfrog capital power. The low-level stage that can be crossed."

Instead, Nicole was speaking for Stan. After all, she was also engaged in practical affairs: "Capital is indeed separated from people's money and the will of the market, but if it is necessary to say that private ownership is required, I don't think...it may not be."

"Didn't private ownership come first before there was a perfect money and market, and then independent capital was born? Capital was born from private ownership, and it wasn't capital that gave birth to private ownership."

"Does the capital bred by private ownership necessarily require private ownership? I don't think there is such an inevitable logic. Isn't our Planning and Development Commission manipulating capital to conduct various businesses in the international market? Such capital is indeed chasing profits. But these profits are not only the natural will of capital, but also the will of our Planning and Development Commission, to be precise, our Red Federation.”

Wilson feels that as a soldier, he must also express his attitude on this issue: "Capital is a monster, bred by the private ownership that we will overthrow, but it does not mean that it can only serve the private ownership society."

"Take the army as an example. Although the research and development and production of various weapons and equipment are now completed by the corresponding people organized by the commune and the guild, the value of these people's labor can be measured, whether it is guild points, contribution points or red coins. , still essentially money.”

"To get weapons and equipment with higher performance and lower cost, there is no other measure of the labor we put in, only money."

"The power organized by these money, although it is essentially human labor, isn't it still capital when gathered together? It can also be seen from practical examples that although some small guilds can rely on their ingenuity to obtain military research and development and production commissions, But in order to perfect the details and meet the requirements of the army, in the end, more people have to participate in the labor, and from another perspective, capital is also at work.”

"How to achieve this transformation? The core is to separate capital from the attachment relationship between people and turn it into a dependency relationship between capital and labor. Human beings are independent of this attachment..."

"In fact, Xiaohong said this when she was teaching everyone. In a Datong society, the economic behavior of individuals is related to a community that reflects the value of labor based on public ownership, not to other individuals, or some individuals. Formed an independent collective association."

"From the perspective of how public ownership cuts off the attachment relationship between people and capital, if it only declares public ownership in name, but some people occupy it on behalf of the people, and the management and operation process prevents the people from knowing and intervening, then this kind of attachment is still inseparable. It's open."

"When the technology is not enough and the productivity is not enough, it will inevitably lead to this situation. Just like we are now, the use of many assets by the public is beyond the knowledge and intervention of the general public, because there are too many technical and social problems. .”

"But this goal is also clearly presented, that is, to integrate all economic activities into a large whole through corresponding technical means. At the same time, public production is the cornerstone of this whole, and a transparent but clear-cut boundary is established. and an economic system with a clear flow."

"At this time, the attachment relationship between capital and people is completely cut off. It seems that capital does not exist, because no one or specific people can directly own capital, use it for profit and monopolize it. Capital is the same as other means of production. People can only use it, not always possess it.”

"However, capital is everywhere. With public ownership as the basis, people's labor can reflect its value in real time and accurately, so human labor is equal to capital."

"It's really vague to say that. To give an example, it is very similar to the concept of crowdfunding. Of course, this is just a concrete presentation of capital. The large and unified labor value embodies the community, which is a bigger and more complicated thing. We need to continue to Building and exploring, the network market that I was eager to promote at the beginning was one of the trivial basic projects."

Li Qi's words were very profound, because he said as soon as he thought of it, and the logic was not strict, but it still led everyone into thinking.

Aurora brought the topic back very considerately: "That is to say, in this system and in this process, when Timmy presents good changes, he also presents bad changes. Let us improve and make improvements. Targeted adjustments, equivalent to... the immune system?"

Li Qi praised: "Very appropriate! It is the immune system that constantly produces antibodies!"

This kind of theoretical speculation, Fei Nike couldn't open her mouth, and finally had a chance at this time: "Don't tell me that Timmy is a platelet! I think she is a red blood cell that can never find the right direction!"
