Xiao Yun laughed and said, "yes, there are two huge defects, and these two are more important than the first two."

"Really... Really?"

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "the second defect is people and cities."

"People? City? "

"Let me ask you, is there a city around the place where magic jade is mined? This city has almost no sources of agriculture or mountains and forests. The whole city is built based on the wealth created by magic jade? Even if there are other trades in it, it is also for the workers who mine magic jade and the traders who come and go to serve them? "

The eunuch immediately nodded and said, "there is such a city, called fantasy City, which means the city of magic jade!"

"That's it."

Xiao Yun nodded confidently and said, "isn't that a prosperous city?"

"Nature is a prosperous place, and there is no description."

"Sure enough, after all, the money came quickly, so naturally, I let go of my spending."

"Exactly."

"The magic jade industry is now so prosperous. If the state of Qin suddenly likes the magic jade and flocks to it, will the magic jade rise? When the great Qin Kingdom likes magic jade, will some small countries around us follow our trend and like magic jade together? "

"This... Is very likely!"

"If more people like magic jade and more people buy it, will the price of magic jade increase?"

"More people want the same thing..."

The eunuch didn't understand this.

Xiao Yun explained, "it's like an auction."

"Oh!"

The eunuch suddenly realized it and nodded: "with more people bidding, the natural price will go up."

"Yes, that's almost the truth."

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "if the price goes up, will the mining intensity of the sun moon country increase?"

"That's natural! There are people waiting to buy goods in front. Of course, they are desperate to dig out the magic jade! "

"Yes, in this way, more and more people go to dig magic jade. If they find a good magic jade, I'm afraid it can change a person's life. At that time, many people should rush to the magic city and the mining area."

"This is inevitable!"

"At that time, as the number of miners increases, the scope of mining will naturally become larger, and the excavation place will extend from the mountains to the surrounding areas. For the time being, just say that there are so many mining people and trading businessmen suddenly, and they all flow into the fantasy city. Is it enough for the original place of the fantasy city?"

"Naturally, it must be expanded!"

"Yes, even if the state has not issued an order, people will always find their own way. They will build some residential areas on the edge of the city and live in their own small homes. Then there will be many merchants relying on these small homes, such as food buyers, clothing shops, etc., and there will be some entertainment places, especially brothels and gambling houses, which will be very developed."

"Yes, this kind of fast money business is most likely to appear in brothel gambling houses."

The eunuch sighed and nodded, which he still had.

"In this way, the magic city will become very large. In addition to mining, the residents around the magic city have abandoned their ability to cultivate land and work. They want to dig out more magic jade wholeheartedly. This is more important than anything, right?"

"It should be."

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and suddenly said, "what if one day, the magic jade suddenly disappeared?"

"Well?"

"It's a mineral. After all, it can't be mined for a day, or there is only a small amount left, and only a few people can harvest it."

"Lighting?"

"Natural energy."

"Well..."

The eunuch thought for a moment, and then suddenly froze.

He thought of a possibility, but... He didn't have any facts as a basis, nor had he seen such a situation, so the whole person stayed there and didn't know what to say.

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "what did you think of?"

The eunuch took a deep breath and said, "the whole fantasy city is deserted in an instant! A large number of miners cannot survive, and a large number of merchants have lost their homes... "

"That's right!" Xiao Yun said with a smile, "how much investment does a city have? That's an unimaginable number, a huge fortune, and those who rely on the mining area to survive... The abandonment of the city is a real loss, but those people will rush to other cities and other industries, which will have a great impact on the whole sun moon country that has tended to balance! "

"This... The old slave doesn't understand this."

The eunuch can't muddle along with such a crucial matter. He must ask clearly.

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "don't you understand? Let me give a simple example. For example, when I opened a workshop, I needed four craftsmen, and I also had four craftsmen. Then I produced, sold, obtained benefits and paid wages, which formed a good cycle, making the lives of five families, including me, good, but suddenly one day, a man came out of the mining area and took care of his family, Unable to survive, he came to my workshop. I have enough people. It's useless to have one more. Naturally, I won't want him, and he won't go either. In the face of the four guys who have worked here for a long time, the only competitiveness he has, that is, the only reason he may let me hire him, is only one... The salary he asks is cheap! "

Xiao Yun stopped for a moment and waited for the eunuch to absorb it slowly.

The eunuch nodded and Xiao Yuncai continued, "so I'm going to hire this cheap man. Naturally, other people don't agree. What will they do? Unite to exclude, because they don't want to be the one who is dismissed. What can a guy who even has problems in life do after being excluded? What can a starving family do? I believe I don't need to elaborate on this? "

When the eunuch heard this, sweat came down his face.

Because it reminds him of... Disaster!

Xiao Yun continued: "there is another possibility that no one has excluded anyone. If the other four people want to save themselves, the remaining way is to reduce their wages. If I'm the boss, whoever doesn't drop will go! At that time, I will have four cheaper workers. The workshop will not be delayed and the wages will be paid less. Will I earn more? But where will the man kicked out go? You can't wait to starve to death? "

The corners of the eunuch's eyes twitched again.

The body trembled.

Slowly walked to the seat, slowly sat down, and then breathed a sigh. He said in a deep voice, "if the sun moon country has experienced this, if there is no talent like childe Xiao to resolve it, they can't slow down for a few years or even decades!"

Xiao Yun said with a smile, "yes, this is the defect of the second magic jade."

The eunuch hurriedly asked, "what about the third one?"

Xiao Yun said, "do you remember what I said before that they will expand the mining area?"

"Naturally remember!"

"Mining minerals, whether gold, silver, copper, iron or jade, will produce pollution. Maybe you don't understand the word pollution. In short, mining doesn't mean digging a pit, digging things out and selling them. Mining is complex, including clearing the surface, drilling through rocks, waste soil transportation, mineral mining, mineral cleaning, and even refining before it is finally transported away. In the whole process, in order to save trouble, some strange things will be used. For example, after copper mining, the ore will be burned after cleaning. In this way, the copper can be simply purified to facilitate transportation and harvest calculation. The same is true of jade. A mining area is bound to pollute the surrounding areas, especially the water! "

"Water?"

"Rivers, as well as groundwater, even some toxins will appear, leaving no grass in a very wide range around, or things can not be planted, or people will suffer from various strange diseases. This is pollution! "

Xiao Yun paused, and then Lang said, "so the jade mine didn't destroy those mountains, but also how many good fields and land near it. These are the huge price that the sun moon country needs to pay for its profits, and they are almost irreversible!"

The eunuch suddenly stood up and said excitedly, "this is called nibbling?!"

"Yes, this is nibbling!"
