The Spirit World

Chapter 696: Simple Theory of Knights
Chang Yufeng has made a lot of considerations on this matter, because this matter is very important and it is also something he must understand.

Whether it is personal heroism or his own selfishness, he must face long-term thinking before making next plans.

Because the butt always determines the head. Wherever the butt sits, the body will lead the head to lean over little by little, so that what you say and what you do are completely corresponding.

Even if you say one thing and mean another, it will be revealed in one word.

Continuing from the last time, Chang Yufeng met the former Lord of Wenti County and discussed in detail about overthrowing the Longxing Society.

This matter is not as simple as thought. It is extremely unreliable to use the knight-like methods to overthrow the Longxing Society. Getting rid of Locke will not solve the problem at all.

If Loken is killed, the Longxing Society will also see the emergence of Shaken and other messy leaders like Shaken. If the Longxing Society is overthrown, similar Zhuxing Society and Gouxing Society will also appear. As long as the Longxing Society model is legal and can bring pornography and gambling to the table for operation, it will be impossible to fundamentally solve the problem.

If you want to solve this problem, the procedure is very simple. That is, cut off these two huge sources of income for Longxinghui through the Legislative Yuan of Wenti County, and cut off Longxinghui's system of using money as a guarantee from the perspective of funding sources. Any chamber of commerce that loses financial guarantees will not be able to operate, let alone Longxinghui with high remuneration. The direct decline in financial benefits will make even the internal staff of Longxinghui not so indestructible.

Most people come here for money, and will naturally disperse without money. The world is bustling with people, all for profit.

Everyone may be able to think of this explanation, but it is obviously very difficult to implement.

For matters like money and murder of parents, there is no problem in confiscating the illegal gains. However, if the money of some people who only exist on the fringe of Longxing Society is taken away, they will definitely resist, not to mention those people in Longxing Society.

In a sense, who doesn't know that Longxinghui has some bad things in it? But as of now, Longxinghui's internal staff is fully staffed, which means that the hundreds of management positions in Longxinghui, big and small, are full, and there are still people trying to squeeze in, using all their tricks, and there is no shortage of talented people.

Because Locke gave so much.

As long as there are people who want to live in a corner, there will be people who want to rise to prominence. Some people think it is reasonable, while others think it is unreasonable. There is no need to debate this issue any further.

The problem is that there is no such thing as a fast legislative process. The Legislative Council of the Principality is separate from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Even if there is an extremely strict set of public laws, it cannot withstand the two seemingly new and ancient traditional industries of pornography and gambling...

To put it simply, the Principality itself does not forcibly classify the pornography and gambling industries as illegal industries.

What does that mean?

This kind of thing is difficult to define... and difficult to control. It is not realistic to put all women working in the sex industry in jail, and some of them are forced. It is not right to sentence them to jail for a few years. Moreover, discrimination against women is prevalent in wars since ancient times. Not to mention other things, even from the perspective of having children, there is no support for daughters. The status of women is relatively low, not to mention that those women who are forced to work in this industry have poor family conditions, or even have no means of survival. Even if they change their ways, they are likely to be trafficked again.

Releasing them from prison and leaving them to fend for themselves would put them in a dilemma if they were trafficked again.

The most important point is that people with ups and downs in life are worthless. Some people can't even take care of themselves, but they want to take care of others. It's one thing to have nothing to do after eating, but it's another to worry about others not having enough food when you can't even eat yourself? Isn't this crazy?
The former city lord severely criticized the dead end proposed by Chang Yufeng, because this dilemma is not something that everyone can solve. Unless the sun and the moon change, all they can think about now is to bring down the Longxing Society instead of changing this situation.

Because of the general environment, the mess of Longxinghui has long been notorious. Its business model has earned huge amounts of money for its internal staff, and it is still expanding. On the other hand, external staff are ruthlessly exploited and trampled upon. Sometimes they can't even be called human beings, but only livestock.

But the general environment is like this, the law cannot save natural disasters and man-made disasters. Similarly, the relief at this moment is only temporary, and the legislation may only bring the problem to the surface.

Would the world be better off without pornography and gambling?
Can pornography and gambling really disappear from this world?

This is a big hello.

Why should it be recorded in the law? Because it existed before.

You can save someone temporarily, but you can’t save them forever.

The world is not linear, and it will never be linear. This is not a story that ends after being saved once. It is like eating. After you finish eating, there is another meal waiting for you. If you don’t eat, you will be hungry. Sometimes you have nothing to eat and can only starve. In other words, it will not end at a certain point. After this point in time, it seems that everyone no longer exists and will no longer repeat the previous actions.

It is very likely that after this point in time has passed, the next action will be to repeat the previous action. Strictly speaking, even if a person dies, it is not the end of his life. His influence will be long-lasting enough and will allow some people to see his life and empathize with him and reflect on his experience.

Of course, this is not something difficult to understand. For individuals, everyone is different. Everyone has to survive and needs to follow the same social rules. However, resources are indeed limited. Who can have resources and who cannot have resources? Who has more resources and who has fewer resources? There is no real fairness in the formulation of such social rules. It can only be relative fairness. To put it in a conspiracy theory, no one will easily give up their resources. Everyone has their own selfish desires. If surviving and living well are used as the balance point of resources, there will be no such behavior of giving benefits. In the pursuit of fame and fortune, a lot of rhetoric will naturally be born to guide others to release resources. People with the same interests will form alliances and people with different interests will compete. It is very exciting to understand.

Then all resources will be concentrated, and people will follow whoever can provide them with good resources. If the law of the jungle based on force and violence system appears, this concentration of resources will be even more terrifying, and oppression will be just a means.

Whose descendants are rich and noble? Whose descendants are ragged?
Of course, society is complex, human nature is complex, and there is no such simple and crude rule as simple addition.

From an individual perspective, not participating in the plunder of resources does not mean that you will not be plundered, nor does it mean that you will not passively participate in plunder.

If a person wants to become a sheep, it is almost impossible not to have selfish motives, except for the condition of being innately kind.

Because it is very obvious. If everyone has parents, then the selfishness of their parents will definitely affect themselves. It is rare that they will ignore the baby after birth or abandon it directly. Even if there is a case, it is likely that they were conceived ignorantly and abandoned or even sold because they are unable to raise the baby.

After talking so much, Chang Yufeng also understood what the former Lord of Wenti County meant...

This kind of thing is very difficult to solve, unless all the people are killed. Otherwise, the things that need to be dealt with afterwards will definitely challenge people's moral bottom line.

Many things cannot be handled like a knight who kills the rich and robs the poor and then leaves it at that. Nor will they end like any fairy tale where the prince rescues the princess and returns to the kingdom.

A princess is a princess, and a poor girl is a poor girl. Why do we think of beautiful princesses first when we mention princesses? Poor girls are likely to be pale and thin? Is this really a part of speech that people give to us on their own initiative?

The answer is obvious. If a princess is in danger, it is likely that there is a reward for her rescue. If a poor girl is killed, the reason for the reward needs to be carefully considered. Similarly, if your own parents are killed, who would not raise their arms and shout that heaven is unfair? If someone else's parents are killed, a little regret may be a sign of kindness...

There is no way to strictly demand others with too high moral standards. Or, in other words, it is okay as long as you are a little thick-skinned, since it is others who are disgusted anyway.

The complexity of people, no one knows how to be complex, and it will not end with someone doing something. After Chang Yufeng was kicked down, can he still live peacefully in Longxinghui or even in Wenti County?
Is it really possible to kill all the members of Longxing Society? If we cut off the jobs of others, and their huge jobs, won't the remaining members retaliate?
Will there really be no revenge? As the old saying goes, to cut off someone's financial resources is like killing his parents.

Regardless of whether he deserves the money or has the ability to get it, you have taken away the food that feeds others. Instead of holding a grudge against you, why should he be grateful to you?
Isn’t this the biggest joke in the world?

No one can end it. Killing Locke and destroying the Longxing Society is definitely not something that can be done by one person.

If you want to be a knight, you must be prepared to die on the road.

Moreover, this time, the Longxing Society did not seem to have any connection with Lin'er, who was related to Chang Yufeng. It was Chang Yufeng who took the initiative to approach the Longxing Society, or it was Lin'er who took the initiative to approach the Longxing Society. This was unreasonable and lacked motivation.

Logically and legally, it is not supported because the current Lord of the Internal Affairs Department of Wenti County, Longxu Gong, has not solved the legislative issues supporting pornography and gambling... You are a young boy, you don’t have the same interests as anyone, and you don’t have any common interests that can make people trust you... Don’t do such stupid things.

After all, the former city lord is still imprisoned on the eighteenth floor underground.

Can kindness make people fight against evil forces? Of course it can, but actively doing so is simply stupid and evil.

Should Chang Yufeng, who calls himself the King of Kindness of Tianyu, really fight against the evil of anyone in this world?

Chang Yufeng himself didn't quite understand, but the former city lord had made it clear that it was not necessary. But in terms of personal vengeance, it was still necessary.

This is not an ultimate reasoning game, nor a contest between knights, nor a sacrifice of personal heroism.

Chang Yufeng is a sheep, so he naturally doesn't think there is anything wrong with sacrifice. As long as it can bring about a new sun and moon, he thinks that sacrifice is not a very difficult decision.

But the biggest problem is here, what can we get in return after the sacrifice?
Do royal families still exist in this world?
Is the royal god really that easy to fool?
No matter whether there is a second Locke in the world or not, he will definitely go and eliminate the harm to the people, but this will not solve the problem.

After raising a question, simply condemning all the shortcomings of the question and those who are indifferent to the question is nothing more than an idealistic way of avoiding the main issue and making yourself look less ugly.

Raising this issue is to discuss and solve this problem and take action. This is in line with the point of view that the facts are true, rather than just talking about it, which is a cliché.

The Longxing Society exploited legal loopholes to traffic in people and promoted the development of the pornography and gambling industries, causing many innocent women and children to be persecuted. The law does not have corresponding protection measures. If we only legislate to ban pornography and gambling, but turn a blind eye to those who have already been persecuted, this method of salvation is like drinking poison to quench thirst.

Besides, if it were so easy for the Legislative Yuan of Wenti County to make and abide by this law, Lord Longxu would not be so anxious every day, and it would not be the turn of an outsider like Chang Yufeng to consider it.

As far as conspiracy theories are concerned, the interests involved are not huge, so it would not be difficult to just get the money from a certain family or legislative official.

Does anyone believe that the world is black and white?
Of course there are.

So is the world really black and white?
Obviously not.

However, many people use this black-and-white theory as a rhetoric, putting the blame on different stakeholders at once, and then attacking them collectively.

Chang Yufeng... The funny thing is, he is an outsider.

He can only have a personal vendetta against Loken…

And it wasn't a personal vendetta for monetary gain, but revenge after his family members or Lin'er were hurt... the kind of revenge that comes from the spirit of a chivalrous knight?

This is simply a way that only an outsider among outsiders can understand... a particularly funny way...

This world really needs heroes... because many people are oppressed... but the heroes in this world can only take revenge... because they are not included in other people's interest distribution system...

When all the knights act only on passion, their starting point... must be vague, and that's when the rhetoric of equality for all comes in handy... but the rhetoric of equality for all does not stand up to scrutiny at all.

When a knight-errant is in a system of benefit distribution, can he really get the benefits in his own name? He gets the name of a knight-errant by robbing the rich and giving to the poor...

Everyone is afraid of his passion... because the world no longer has the most powerful oppressor... the world has really changed, then...

Who will become the new oppressor? Or, in other words, clean up the remaining mess... For example, the wealth and resources left behind by the mess...

The first knight is...

Loken?

The second knight...

Is it Chang Yufeng?
The third knight, could it be you?
