C2000 Capital and aristocracy

Capital had no national or national distinction, nor did it have human emotions. It did not know what it meant to be patriotic or unpatriotic, nor did it understand what it meant to be righteous.

Capital was born for profit. This was the first mission that he had, and it could not be suppressed by humans.

Taking Ancient China for example, due to the high concentration of power within the feudal dynasty and the pressure from the other side, the Ancient China's capital had always been carefully placed between the gaps.

The slightest bit of it would be plundered jointly by the Sovereign King and officials, and not a single bit of it would be left for you to nibble on. As such, the Ancient China was simply unable to form a capitalist breakthrough.

As the history textbook once explained, both the southern Song and the late Ming dynasties of China have already sprouted capitalism in Jiangnan.

This argument was too one-sided. It completely took for granted that the responsibility of failure was pushed towards natural disasters, man-made disasters, and war … In fact, China is a soil that simply cannot allow capitalism's sprout to thrive.

With the Sovereign King above his head and the bureaucratic class as his sickles, would he dare to show his head? If you dare to show your head, I can clean it up for you.

In this social atmosphere, all capitalists had to bow their heads to reality. They had to hide their wealth, bury it in the ground, or make it into a field. Then, the family would have to select outstanding talents to become officials and tie them up with the ruling class.

In this context, when businessmen invest small amounts of money to add value to their assets, the state can still keep an eye open because your small amount of money doesn't attract his attention, which means that all Chinese capitalists have to be careful to disguise themselves as small shrimps, so that the dragons and tigers in the imperial court don't have to think about eating as much as possible.

This way, he could maintain the balance on the surface. The country was one with the other, and the society was stable and harmonious!

But if some ambitious capitalists try to invest in a large scale, such as in China, to industrialize the Jeanne loom, such as wool or silk, this huge amount of capital will awaken the dozing tigers in the hall.

It was a sin to be as rich as a nation! This was something that could be killed!

The European The Age of Great Navigation, the Industrial Revolution, wasn't it pushed up using the same astronomical amount of capital? Let's not even talk about the Great Ming and the Great Qing's sea ban. Even without it, it would still be difficult for China's capital to be as deep blue as the waves.

Why? This was because in the early stages of the career, the moment all the capital was gathered together, people would have already set their sights on the capital. The old saying goes, being rich enough to rival a nation is a sin.

In fact, the Western world did not believe in capitalism from the beginning either. The rule of the Middle Age's Sovereign King over her subjects was even more brutal and barbaric than China.

Countless exorbitant taxes, and even the rights of a woman in the territory was taken over by the nobles. The status of a merchant was very low, even her life could not be saved.

It was a genuine feudal system. From the king down to the nobles at all levels, the society had already become an iron cage created by the church and the nobles.

In that era, in the distant East, the China that was the most civilized, courteous, and talented, was the true lamp of the world.

All the changes came before the era of the British. The core conflict between the seventeen mid-century leaf s, the one who had her head chopped off, and the capitalists was actually a matter of taxation.

I am the monarch of a nation, and you are all my subjects. How much tax do you have to pay for me? How dare you bargain with me? How dare you refuse to pay taxes after you've cut your head off? I'll chop your head off again.

Ouch … If you dare to confront me, I'll send troops to chop your head off!

What? You lowly commoners actually managed to organize an army stronger than me? How is that possible?

"This is bad …" This bunch of lowly commoners are going to chop off my head! "

Just like that, because of the tax conflict, Britain fought two civil wars, and in the end, the capitalist Congress could see that the Charles I could not be enlightened, so they might as well just kill to intimidate the later generations.

The head of the Charles I caused the kings of Europe to shiver. They finally understood that the capitalists were the strongest in their society and that they could only ally with the monarchs. They could no longer plunder and plunder as they pleased.

Xiao Letian remembered the events from 200 years ago clearly. He was more clear that after 200 years of development, the European capital force had now completely taken control of the entire society.

On the surface, the monarch was still the ruler of the country. In fact, the monarch had long since become a captive of the capital. Or rather, the current monarch of Europe had already followed the trend and become a member of the capitalists.

Today, the list of shareholders in the Egyptian Suez Canal confirmed Xiao Letian's judgement. The royals and nobles of various countries had all turned around, and the nobles who directly stole and taxed the citizens in the past, became the new nobles that operated mainly based on their capital.

There can be war between nations, but there is no conflict of capital between nations.

The war between France and Prussia was imminent, but it did not prevent the shares of the two capitalists from existing in the Canal Company.

Now, Suez Canal had become a true multinational corporation, abandoning the national and national capital to participate in it, thus excavating such a miraculous river of money.

How could he defeat such a Canal Company? Unless Xiao Letian had the strength to fight against the entire European capital circle, you could only blackmail this Canal Company a little, but you absolutely could not touch his core core.

Against the capitalists of all Europe? Xiao Letian was not that arrogant. If he really did that, even ten heads would not be enough to cut him down.

Hearing Xiao Letian's analysis, the cabin became dead silent, at that moment everyone had a bit of understanding, a bit of ascension!

Even Bing Tai Lang, who had the lowest level of education, had a trace of enlightenment. He scratched his head and said, "Aiya … Why does it feel like the whole world has changed after I listened to my father's words? "

"It's hard for me to describe this feeling... "It's just like how I used to see this world as a cow, but now that I look at it again, this cow's skin is actually gone …"

"Right... "He's been blown away by our father!"

"All that's left is the cow's muscles, bones, blood vessels … "It's neat and tidy, with a panoramic view …"

With a "pa" sound, Xiao Letian slapped his head and said, "You're the one who blew that cow's skin away, I, your father, have taught you a lesson! This is the principle of not exchanging a thousand gold coins! "

"All of you have to remember, remember every single word I say!" Xiao Letian said in a serious tone.

"What is the mainstream of the future world? It is the fall of the kings one by one, it is the rise of the class struggle, you are all sitting on Chinese aristocrats, what kind of life style are you going to choose in the future, you have to think about it carefully! "

"Don't learn from the conservative nobles of Qing Dynasty. Those feudal aristocracy s who only know how to eat and rent land, eat houses and servants … to learn from the British royal family! "

After so many years of change, the British royal family had long ago broken away from being dependent on taxes and grants from the Congress. The royal family itself was a large company, and using the advantages of their status to invest in the capital, they had already made a ton of money!

"When all the nobles don't have to beat the bones and suck the marrow out of their own people, how can they be unpopular?"

"Why do I need to give everyone a hidden dragon plan? That's because I hope that you will all become the leading new aristocrats of your era, and I hope that you can all become the moral role models of the Chinese people! "

"If you have the ability, don't bully the common people and earn your money. Only by doing so, I, Xiao Letian, admire you!"
