No cheat code, right? I'll make one myself.

"You are wrong. Why does the whole of Daxia still miss you? If it is true as you said, wouldn't rebellions have already occurred in various places?"

Ming Nianxi interrupted at this time, but Yunlin rolled his eyes: "So you have never understood these people."

"Although they may be a little different from the people I know, the people living on this land desire peace in their hearts. They grow their own crops and eat their own food, and they don't think about plundering others."

As he spoke, he seemed to be immersed in a certain memory of a powerful country that was not afraid of foreign invasion, did not provoke, and did not actively invade other countries, and that had preserved its own civilization over 5000 years of history.

Even in the most tragic times, the culture was still passed down.

"As long as the people have enough food to eat, they will hardly think of rebelling. They always think that if they suffer this year, their lives will get better if there is a good harvest next year."

Yunlin's voice was very low, as if he had included his own emotions in it: "But if it is a year of good harvest, life may be even more miserable than a year of disaster."

"How can this be a good harvest? Isn't this a good time to make money?"

Mingyue was a little surprised when she heard Yunyun say this, and Yunlin showed an unhappy expression when he heard that she was missing another volume.

"Oh, it is indeed a good opportunity to make money, but not for farmers or ordinary people, but for businessmen and landlords."

"Have you ever heard that more people die in good years than in bad years?"

"How is this possible? It's harvest time, and food will only become more abundant. How could someone starve to death?"

Ming Nianxi asked in disbelief. She instinctively wanted to deny that what you said was not true, but Yunlin's calm eyes made her believe it.

“The tax on farmers isn’t fixed, is it?”

Looking at the increasing number of carriages, Yunlin asked.

"Yes, that's true, but you don't have to pay it in grain. You can still use money to deduct the tax."

"What weighs down the farmers is layers of exploitation. It's not enough for someone to exploit them."

Yunlin sighed softly and said, "Although I don't know much about the economic structure of farmers, I understand that not everyone owns their own land."

"If farmers don't have their own land, they can only rent the land from the landlords if they want to survive. After paying the head tax, they have to pay rent to the landlords. This is the second level of oppression. And people can't grow all the crops. If they want to wear clothes and have shoes to wear, they have to buy them, and to buy, they need to sell the crops they grow.

In a good year, the more crops are harvested, the more the price will drop off a cliff. The price of grain will drop at an alarming rate. Many farmers only grow one kind of grain, wheat, or some other crops, or at most some vegetables. After being exploited by merchants at low prices, the money they receive in a good year is less than usual, but the taxes they pay will be higher because of the good harvest. "

"If in a bumper year, farmers harvest less than usual, then what is the point of this bumper year?"

"The significance is that for businessmen and landowners, they can profit from it again."

Yunlin sneered, "They have more wealth, so they can buy food at a lower price and sell it at a higher price. The difference in price is their profit."

"Farmers work hard for a year, but they are not as good as merchants who raise prices. How can this be justified?" Ming Nianxi said angrily.

"Reason? Reason is a joke in Daxia. Daxia has never been a place where reason is respected." Yunlin said coldly. "In any world, only power and money are truth."

"Why didn't those farmers resist? Why did they have to endure such oppression?" Ming Nianxi asked in confusion.

"Resist? How to resist?" Yunlin smiled sarcastically.

"How could these peasants, who were unarmed, resist the officials who were armed with swords? Moreover, most of the peasants were illiterate and could not read a single word. They did not know how to resist at all. They only knew that in order to survive, they could only resign themselves to fate and accept what was done to them."

"Do you know why after a peasant uprising at the end of a dynasty, the new dynasty will immediately become prosperous at the beginning of its establishment? Because the population has decreased a lot, exploitation has been reduced to the point where people can barely support their families, and the population will increase. After the population increases, a new round of exploitation will begin again."

"After a hundred or a thousand years, a new dynasty will emerge, and this cycle will repeat over and over again. Eventually, some other changes may occur, but based on the size of this world I can see now, it's impossible for it to last until then."

"Such a country and such a court are so corrupt." Ming Nianxi said disappointedly.

"Rotten? Perhaps, but this is Daxia, this is the world you live in."

Yunlin said calmly, "Because you are all living on the bright side of the world. Because of money, you don't need to worry about the darkness of this world. But maybe it's useless for me to tell you this. People don't have the ability to empathize."

"Especially you vested interests. Maybe you are very shocked and a little sad when I speak now, but once today is over, you will soon forget what I said."

"So what you said is just talk, what's the point?"

Mingyue looked at Yunlin with disdain. Although what Yunlin said did shock her, she was not convinced by him.

"But what I said is just theoretical, without any actual basis. But if you look through history books, you can easily get what I said. Even if I want to extend my life for a few hundred years, it's possible, but I'm not interested."

After hearing so much from Yunlin about the hardships of ordinary people's lives, I thought Yunlin was trying to speak for the people of this world, but I didn't expect Yunlin to say these words at the end.

"Why, if you think you are capable and care so much about the people of this world, why are you still stingy with your abilities?"

Lin Nianxi looked at Yunlin and said.

"Concern for the people? How do you know that?"

Yunlin looked at Ming Nianxi with a strange expression, as if Ming Nianxi had said this without any thought.

"You are the one who benefited, and you are the one who wants to make changes now. What's in it for me?"

With a smile on his face, he said, "No matter who changes the world, his end will not be good. Although I am not afraid, I don't want to meddle in other people's business. Your power cannot restrain me, and your interests have nothing to do with me. Why do you want to do this thankless task?"

"But you just expressed your concern for the people. This cannot be faked. If you really don't care about the lives of the people, how could you understand it so clearly?"

When Ming Mianxi was speaking, Mingyue acted as if she didn't exist and didn't intend to interrupt at all.

Yunlin turned his head and looked out the window, as if he didn't want to answer her question at all.

"Isn't it pathetic? The hypocritical performance of the vested interests is really boring."

Hearing Yunyun's words, Ming Nianxi showed a sad expression, but Mingyue pointed at Yunlin angrily and said, "You keep saying that we are the vested interests, aren't you? Aren't you enjoying our rights and resources now? If it weren't for us, I don't know how far you would have to walk from that place to here."

"So I didn't refute what you said."

Facing Mingyue's accusation, Yunlin showed an indifferent attitude: "I never said that I am not a vested interest. As for what you said about enjoying your resources, it is true that this trip with you has indeed shortened my time."

What Yunlin didn’t say was that the rewards the two received in the past two days were far greater than what they had paid.

Although most of the spiritual energy of the spirit stone that Yunlin took out was absorbed by Luo Ling, the spiritual energy that escaped had changed the physical conditions of the two people to a certain extent.

Although it does not mean that you will not get any disease, but you will not get any disease in these months, and the probability of getting disease in the future will be much smaller.
