Imagine the world

The process of refining pure round elixir is also an introduction to elixir.

Ketia took the things back today and did all the homework. Under the guidance and supervision of the tutor, she can basically figure out what her talent is good at.

Cui Wanhe raised his head and looked at the sky after receiving the talisman, elixir, and beans from the research institute, and said, "Ketia, this is the end of today's schedule, if you have a chance, come here again for further study, we should go back."

Ketia was carrying a big bag on her back and hadn't recovered, she asked subconsciously, "Where are you going?"

Rothschild sighed, "Go back to the world!"

Chapter 583

A few people still took the helicopter and flew back to Meng Yingqiu in the blue sky lake before dinner.Ketia is already a disciple of Yangyuan Valley, and Manman, the guardian of Bikong Lake, invited her to dinner in spite of her busy schedule, and left a spiritual seal.

From the method of controlling objects and the power of pure objects that can be practiced in the third realm, to the various homework that needs to be practiced after the fourth realm, such as sacrificial light beads, magnolia sword, bamboo magpie, pure yuan pill, and the matching magnolia Sword array, bamboo magpie technique...

The most important of these, of course, is the skill of nourishing Yuan after breaking through the four realms, which is the foundation of cultivation.

It is impossible to teach or learn these contents in just one day. The best way to teach them is to have a tutor who can point them out at any time, and the inheritance of the heart seal is also an important support.

Ketia suddenly made a request to formally join Yang Yuangu's sect, which was unexpected by many people.And Yangyuangu was quick to do things, and it was done the next day.

When she reappeared on the third day, Ma Taishan could no longer be a security guard.

Mount Matai was not hired by Ketia with money, and such a person could not be hired even if she wanted to.It was he who volunteered to accompany Ketia, and Ketia couldn't refuse back then.

Now it is inappropriate for Ma Taishan to continue to be a bodyguard, but Ketia doesn't want to make the relationship stalemate.Yang Yuangu and Cambisting are still in a cooperative relationship, and there is no need for her to turn against Ma Taishan.

So Ketia said that the next itinerary has nothing to do with the identity of the monk, if Matai Mountain still walks in the same way, then it is a personal friend.

Speaking of this, Ma Taishan could take his leave with a little vision, but he was very good at climbing, and immediately expressed his willingness to continue to accompany His Royal Highness to visit Jili Kingdom.

Then Hua Zhenxing arranged a camel for Matai Mountain.

Although joining Yangyuangu's sect was an accident, Ketia's other itineraries were already arranged.After leaving Bikong Lake, she will visit the earliest and currently largest agricultural production base in Jili State.

It is a large area from Banda City to the western suburbs of Shire City, with Bikong Lake Scenic Area in the north, Wago Desert in the south, and National Park in the west. There are Feisuo River, Banshou River, Banda River, Banwei River, etc. Four rivers pass through.

The reason why the former port city of Fiso and now the city of Shire can exist is because there is a non-stop flow of the Fiso River all year round.And Banda City can become the most important agricultural production base in Jili State because there are three rivers in the territory.

Although the Banshou River, Banda River, and Banwei River are three rivers in the middle and lower reaches of the plain, they almost originate in the same valley in the western plateau and flow out from three different cols in the mountains.

Today, the upstream Banyuan River Reservoir has been completed, with a total installed capacity twice that of the Luofugen Hydropower Station. It is by far the largest water conservancy project in Jili State. One reservoir has three main dams, each leading to three downstream rivers.

Two stepped reservoirs have also been built in the upper reaches of the Fiso River, but the scale is relatively small.

After the new alliance liberated Banda City and before it took control of the entire territory of Jili Kingdom, it has already launched large-scale farmland and water conservancy construction in this area. Uncle Mo personally led the team to make the overall plan until the completion of the Banyuan River Reservoir. Initially completed.

Formerly scattered plantations and farmlands were reconsolidated, and the boundaries of national parks were redefined.All levels of farmland and water conservancy projects have been built in this area, and today's large-scale agricultural production base has come into being.

It is said that you can take an off-road vehicle to visit these farms, but Feng Zibin arranged a camel team, and everyone rode camels to walk in the wilderness.Although it is so-called winter, the climate is still warm and the fields are green.

Ketia is very curious about why you want to visit by camel?Feng Zibin explained with a smile that this is actually a newly developed tourism project in the local area, which is welcomed by many tourists, especially those from Dongguo. These camels are also raised by the tourism company.

Ordinary tourists come to play, at most, they ride camels around a relatively safe area.When Ketia came this time, Feng Zibin specially dispatched a camel team from the travel company to let Her Royal Highness ride a camel to her heart's content.

Ten years ago, Ketia came to Fiso Port to hunt. At that time, there was a convoy following her, but the princess herself rode a horse.Now the horses have been replaced by dromedary camels, and there are only five of them, and the standard light riding is simple.

Seven camels, five riders, and the other two carried loads across the field.The farm workers I saw along the way waved enthusiastically from a distance, and arranged a farm lunch in a farm canteen on the way.

After continuing to visit in the afternoon, Ma Taishan suddenly asked: "Are all large state-owned farms in this area? I heard that Jili Kingdom has the most cooperation with Dongguo, and many projects are aided by Dongguo. Why didn't you learn from Dongguo's agricultural policies back then?" ?”

Rothschild: "What agricultural policy did Dongguo have in those days?"

Ma Taishan: "The production is contracted to the household. The family joint production contract responsibility system, and each household is divided into responsible fields." At the same time, he explained the situation he knew with his spiritual thoughts, because he grew up in the Eastern Kingdom.

Cui Wanhe shook her head and said: "We can't learn, and we can't learn."

Ketia: "Oh, why?"

This is a long story to explain. Dongguo's agricultural policy back then, the so-called household contracting of production, was not an advanced form of production organization, but it also had quite strict implementation prerequisites.These preconditions are even only possessed by Dongguo.

On the one hand, there is a traditional agricultural society, a large enough agricultural population, and a scattered small-scale peasant economy; on the other hand, after land reform and social revolution, collective ownership of land has been realized.

However, if you want to engage in sub-household contracting, there is a more important basis, which is to assume that all agricultural families have mastered skilled farming techniques, have well-cultivated cultivated fields, and have convenient transportation. The most important thing is a sound farmland water conservancy system. .

The Dongguo has thousands of years of agricultural civilization accumulation to have such a foundation. There has always been a corvee system in ancient times, and a large part of corvee tasks are the construction and maintenance of water conservancy facilities.

Especially after the establishment of Xindongguo, it took decades to establish a relatively complete system of farmland water conservancy projects.

And none of these prerequisites were available in Jili Kingdom back then, and everything had to be started from scratch.Therefore, building large-scale state-owned farms to create agricultural production bases, training and hiring agricultural workers is the most suitable model.

Ma Taishan asked again: "Then what about the future? You don't need to engage in household contracting, but when the conditions are ripe, can you privately own these lands, for example, many people can share a piece of land, and maybe you can manage it better."

Hua Zhenxing sighed: "As long as the first step is taken in some things, the trend is irreversible. Doctor Luo, what do you think?"

Rothschild did not answer directly, but said inexplicably: "The best way to annex assets is to develop and encourage finance. Many textbooks say that the function of finance is resource allocation, but they do not say that the purpose of finance is capital concentration."

Doctor Luo just made a point.For an event with a certain probability of occurrence, as long as the base is large enough, it will inevitably happen, either on this person or on another person.

Such as natural disasters, such as accidents, or even a disease that temporarily disables the ability to work.Who can guarantee that they will not get sick all their lives, or even from generation to generation?

What would happen if agriculture were developed on the basis of scattered owner farmers and the land was privately owned by these farmers?Maybe after a natural disaster, some farmers went bankrupt!

Even if 99 people can survive, only one person can't, it is inevitable that this kind of thing will happen.Another consequence of bankruptcy is the loss of land.

Assuming another person, Feng Zibin, keeps buying the land of bankrupts, he will gradually own the largest land, which is the most important means of agricultural production.

This is the process of land annexation in the history of many countries.

To avoid this process as much as possible, a social relief system may be needed.But the social assistance system is not a panacea and often fails.When natural disasters and man-made disasters occur, they are often accompanied by disorder, and the failure of relief has almost become a necessity.

There is another legitimate way to speed up the process, the simplest and most effective way is to try to get people to keep increasing their debts.

The most common ways to add to debt are by buying things you would otherwise be unable to afford, by taking on consumption beyond your current level of wealth accumulation, and through borrowing such as an installment mortgage.

The path of debt is not only in the consumption field, but also in the production field, such as providing more advanced production tools, seeds with higher yields, supporting pesticides and fertilizers...

These things are beyond the reach of the original peasant households. They have not yet accumulated so much wealth, so they must be supplemented with financial tools to allow them to realize it in the form of debt, and encourage them to use land as collateral for loans.

In this case, almost everything is endowed with financial attributes. If there are natural and man-made disasters, debt defaults will occur on a large scale... Besides, there are more effective means.

The special attributes of most agricultural products make them difficult to preserve for a long time, and they must be sold in a short period of time during the harvest season in order to obtain income to repay due debts.

Even for some staple food products with a longer shelf life, there are additional costs for storage, and they face greater debt pressure.

If the supply channels of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides are controlled, and the sales market of the products is controlled, the overall harvest can be completed at the right time, and it is even possible to deliberately start a war.

For example, creating price fluctuations in the short term, increasing the prices of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and energy, and lowering the prices of agricultural products, causing farmers to default on their debts and even lose their loan collateral.

In the process, the "Fengzibin" not only sold their products and obtained huge interest income, but also eventually took possession of each other's assets.Such methods can not only target a certain farm family, but can even be used to harvest a country.

A very important reason for the emergence of human civilization is that people have learned to delay gratification and are willing to sow seeds in winter and wait until autumn to reap.

In the former Jili Kingdom, many people lived in despair because they had no chance to create wealth through hard work, and the more they struggled, the deeper despair they ushered in.

The emergence of the New Alliance and the New Guli State, all they have done is to give people the opportunity to change the world and improve themselves through hard work, so as to gradually complete the accumulation.

But on the other side of human nature, if you can enjoy it in advance without hard work, how many people can resist this temptation?Mortgaging the future without accumulation is a new game.

This process is irreversible. Once it starts, the trend will become more and more intensified, and eventually the land will be concentrated in the hands of people like Feng Zibin.

What this kind of people want is to monopolize resources, and they will plant whatever has the highest profit. If the agricultural products are not profitable or the income does not meet expectations, they will use the land for other purposes.

So what happens to refugees who lose their land?They have once again become reserve labor resources with varying degrees of availability. In modern times, there is a word called "human mine", which has changed from human beings to mines in a certain sense.

This was the case in Jili Kingdom back then. Since there was no water conservancy system, the arable land suitable for large-scale development was concentrated in areas with natural irrigation conditions and was occupied by major forces, such as the Morrison Plantation.

What is the main crop on the Morrison Plantation?It is exclusively for oil palm and coffee beans in overseas markets, and a large amount of grass is planted in the fringe areas.They have enough wealth to support themselves and their thugs, and the famine era is a good opportunity to continue to occupy resources.

If this process happens, Jiliguo may return to the era of the Morrison plantation. Should we wait for the next new alliance to appear, turn the table and start again?

The emergence of a new alliance is not an inevitable event!Some people say that history is inevitable. If there is no new alliance, there will be similar new organizations and new fronts. This is a misunderstanding of historical materialism.

Because in the real history, countless tribes and national civilizations did not wait for salvation, but went extinct due to various reasons.For example, the Shenyin Kingdom that Hua Zhenxing visited once had an independent civilization there.

Ma Taishan mentioned the example of Dongguo. Dongguo’s household contracting system has existed stably for many years. The fundamental reason is that the agricultural land at that time did not become the subject matter of financial products.

Land is only the means of production allocated to farmers, and it is a collective property right. Farmers can only use it but cannot sell it.

Many peasant families are in debt due to building a house, getting married, seeing a doctor, etc. Even if the income from farming is very low, even if they go to the city to work to increase their income, they cannot directly sell the contracted land property rights...

Rothschild only spoke half of the sentence, and did not start the specific process of speaking, but the meaning is already obvious.Dr. Luo, who saved lives and healed the wounded in Port Fiso back then, is now a successful elite investor, and he understands this kind of thing all too well.

Cui Wanhe didn't want them to get entangled in this issue, so he quickly smoothed things over and said: "The situation in Jili Kingdom is different. The main purpose of agricultural development is to ensure the safety of people's livelihood."

Ma Taishan was still interested in the topic just now, and continued to ask: "What about Huanxiang Tebang? As far as I know, all the land there, including various assets, belong to Huanxiang Industry.

And Huanxiang Industry only belongs to Lord Feng Zibin, and there are no other shareholders.Is this the concentration of capital mentioned by Lord Rothschild just now, and is it the ultimate form? "

This time it was Rothschild who smoothed things over, he quickly waved his hand and said, "It's different, it's completely different. Lord Feng Zibin didn't take anything from anyone, but created everything himself."

This sentence seems to be true. The land that Hua Zhenxing bought in the name of Feng Zibin, including the earliest agricultural reclamation area, is actually uninhabited wasteland.Today's Huan Xiang Tebang, most of the area is still wasteland.

There are only floods in the rainy season and withered grass in the dry season. There is no village or a perennial river.Now all of this is a new creation of Huanxiang Industry from scratch, not taken from others.

Unexpectedly, Feng Zibin shook his head and said: "Mr. House is right, this is the ultimate form of capital concentration.

Huanxiang Tebang was not built by me alone, and Huanxiang Industry was not built by me alone.But all the land and assets belong to me alone, at least in name. "

Rothschild interrupted again: "Brother, Huanxiang Industry's current shareholding structure is completely unnecessary, as long as you have control. Have you ever thought about going public for financing? It must be the most important event in the world's capital market in recent decades. event.

You don’t even need to wait until the day of the official listing. As long as you have intentions, the first round of valuation will be astronomical.When it is officially listed, the wealth you own in a moment will exceed the imagination of the world.

Even if you are rich now, it is only the accumulated profits from producing Chun Rong Dan every year.But by that time, your assets will be far more than today, and can be realized at any time. "

Ketia interjected in a low voice: "Dr. Luo is right."

"That's right!" Feng Zibin actually swears, and then looked at the field in the distance and said: "People are willing to buy shares of Huanxiang Industrial because they recognize the company's ability to create value, that's what the book says ?

If they just want to hype the difference, it's pointless and doesn't create anything.But if they are looking forward to future dividends and profits, have they really created something?

They've been made to believe, or they believe themselves, that money can be made automatically if you put it in the right place.This only requires that the vision is accurate enough to make the right choice, and there is no need to pay any more labor.

If at the moment I ring the bell of the exchange, I can have wealth far exceeding the existing assets, do I really create this wealth myself?

I just want to say a fact, if Yang Yuangu orders all the disciples to withdraw from the production department of Chunrong Pill, Huan Xiang Industrial will not be able to produce even a single Chunrong Pill! "

Rothschild explained: "What Her Royal Highness said is not the same as what you said, but means that in reality, this kind of situation will really happen."

Feng Zibin: "If the things that have happened and are happening in reality are all correct, why should the new alliance change the old Jili Kingdom?"

However, Ma Taishan could always grasp the key points and not let the topic go astray, and he asked persistently: "Lord Feng Zibin, you just said that as long as Yang Yuangu gives an order, all disciples will be asked to withdraw from the production department of Chunrong Pill, and Huanxiang Industry Can't produce a single Chunrong Pill!

If this is the case, Lord Rothschild's suggestion needs to be considered even more.You can give these Yangyuanshi shares, so that they can share the profits of Huanxiang Industry, and binding each other's interests together is the best way to retain them.

Almost all the most successful large conglomerates in the world today do this.If Huanxiang Industry wants to achieve greater success and ensure long-term development, it may have to do the same. "

Feng Zibin glanced at Mount Matai, but didn't answer directly. Instead, he changed the subject and told a story that seemed like a modern fable——

"There is a country that is as sparsely populated as Huanxiang Tebang, but much larger than Huanxiang Tebang. Someone once launched a revolution with the slogan of making everyone the true master of the country.

The specific measures are very creative, forming a company with all the state-owned assets of the country and implementing demutualization.At that time, the country had a population of more than 300 million, so it was divided into more than 300 million shares, and each person had one share.

Then the revolution succeeded because it was popular with the majority of the nation.

What will happen after success?Does getting this share equal to owning this country?Or does it mean that people don't have to do anything to share in the dividends?

Assets are valuable because they are both means of production and objects of labor. The value is obtained in production activities, so who should produce it?If these 300 million people are no longer engaged in production, what else can they get?

If they can get dividends, they are also sharing the value created by the producer.In order for this country to develop and prosper, what is needed is the hard work of the workers after all.

However, there is another short-term income method, which is to sell all state-owned assets and share the income with everyone. Everyone may get a sum of money more or less.

In this way, there are two problems. First, at what price should they be sold to whom, and who can buy these assets?The second is that after all the assets are sold, what is the meaning of the shares of the shell company?

So some smart people thought of a better way. This country still has some resources, such as minerals, including coal mines, copper mines, and rare earth mines.

Ask foreign companies to bring equipment, build roads, hire workers to mine, and then sell the ore, so that all citizens can share the benefits.

It seems that it can indeed share the benefits, but it is not enough to support the good life in people's minds. What will people think at this time?

Since virtual shares are a kind of personal assets, they can be traded and transferred.So when it comes to the next so-called general election, all candidates put forward their own campaign policies, that is, the shares in people's hands can be listed and traded.

Those who do not support this policy cannot be elected.Because no matter whether people plan to sell shares or not, they don't mind having the right to sell them, and they all hope to have the so-called opportunity to sell at a high level and buy back at a low level.

I believe each of you can guess the results after listing.All assets need to be operated. For specific operators, it is much easier to make it lose money than to make it profitable. Shares without income are equivalent to waste paper.

So it really fell to the price of waste paper, was sold all the way, and was easily bought in large quantities.

The quality assets of this huge company were then split up and sold into various private consortiums, at which point the original design lost all meaning.

This is just a story, I don't know if there is such a country in reality.But we can also deduce it in another way. If this kind of share is not listed and traded, can it be inherited?

If it cannot be inherited, it loses its meaning.If it can be inherited, this family has two children, and that family has only one child, and the difference in share capital share between them is doubled. Is this really fair? "

This story is somewhat absurd, but Ketia became more and more interested the more she listened to it, and finally couldn't help interjecting: "How about changing the form?
