Chapter 2928 Don’t bully young people into poverty
Why should we trust each other? Trust is not something that comes naturally. The laws of the dark forest and the chain of suspicion are the basic existence. In ancient times, princes and wealthy families established trusting relationships through hometown, marriage, family, and clan, which can be said to be very advanced.
The trust system. The set of relationships such as fellow villagers, marriages, family friends, and clans create a chain of ties, and then arrange closeness and distance through the altar of Confucianism, so that it becomes stable.
Therefore, in troubled times, it often happens that the army is composed entirely of fellow soldiers. An army may be a fellow villagers association. Not only do they have the same customs and habits, but they are also often very powerful in combat.
How to trust others, how can the strong group trust the weak, and how can the weak trust the strong? If this problem is not solved, then even if the interests are gathered and the interests are gone, they will be dispersed, and it is impossible to share the joys and sorrows. Both the East and the West have to face this.
The problem is how to trust each other.
Because of the chain of suspicion, suspicion between people is a normal phenomenon, and mutual trust is acquired. And as the scope of trust becomes larger and larger, the theory of trust will continue to evolve.
How to allow people outside the hometown, marriage, family, and clan to join the trust system is difficult.
Du Lan said that the city created by Shentong broke the balance of the normal relationship between the four major forces. In the past, the four major forces had a stable network of trust in their hometowns, but now they are all gathered in a city and do not know each other. The reason for the gathering is completely
It's because of supernatural powers and benefits.
The magical power ensures that everyone can get their own share of the benefits, and at the same time ensures that more benefits can be gathered in the city. In this way, when the magical power is there, the city is still very stable. But if you only rely on the magical power, it will not last long.
plan.
So after An's death, the new magical power just threw away his hands and left to play in the spirit world, not bothering to waste time in the city.
"The magical power broke the traditional trust culture of 'township, marriage, family, and clan', but it was unable to establish a new culture, so there would be turmoil in the city, and at the same time, the original four major forces would still compete with each other, because the magical power did not break the barriers.
Without twisting the four major forces into a rope, we cannot make them trust each other."
"The requirements for making magical powers are really high." Jie said that he didn't fully understand it. Just listening to the question of chain of suspicion was enough to give him a headache. He really didn't know how to solve the problem with magical powers. He couldn't think of it anyway.
In fact, I can't figure it out. The chain of suspicion cannot disappear. The best thing is to establish a culture to weaken the chain of suspicion as much as possible. But even so, the chain of suspicion will not disappear, but will be relatively weakened.
An is only a teenager now and has no ability to create any culture. Just building the city has already made him as tired as his third grandson.
Sokka is still not satisfied with this. He thinks An should first help rebuild the Antarctic Water Tribe. Because of the war, the territory of the Antarctic Water Tribe has been reduced to ruins. Now that the war is over, their tribesmen must return to their hometown to rebuild their homes.
, they are short of all resources.
There is a shortage of ships and production materials, and seeing money pouring into the city, Sokka thinks that Avatar should support Antarctica.
As soon as Sokka opened his mouth, other areas that had been attacked by the war also said that they also needed reconstruction funds. He also said that he hoped that the Fire Nation would pay compensation and asked the Fire Nation to provide money and supplies.
The Fire Nation said that it was not possible to lose money, but it was still possible to provide some resources to help with construction. Anyway, the Fire Nation now had a large number of firebenders with no place to put them. These soldiers could just be converted into construction workers, and they could also export some of the Fire Nation's resources.
Machinery is still good for the development of the Fire Nation.
Without the burden of military spending, Zuko is already eager to try. He will vigorously promote the conversion of the military to civilians and export technology. He will dismantle the weapons of the warships and transform them into cargo ships. At this time, various places need resource transportation. Because these cargo ships are now
It's privately owned, so you can negotiate the price yourself. Anyway, the Fire Nation is only responsible for collecting taxes.
The Fire Nation's economy is stable and improving, and the reconstructed areas are relatively stable with the Fire Nation's equipment. The Arctic has also actively participated in the transportation system and has also achieved development.
Except for some minor conflicts caused by resource allocation, the current situation is very good, but Dulan also said that development can be maintained for about thirty years, and then it will enter a period of explosive conflict.
Jie observed for a while and found that the problem Du Lan mentioned did not appear. There was indeed a slight contradiction, but the overall feeling was good. Everyone had a job and could develop steadily.
The Hundred Years War is over, and the gods have not caused trouble. Everyone is full of expectations for the future. New royal arts, new technologies, new patterns, new opportunities, and a brand new era is in front of everyone.
To be precise, we have not yet entered a new era, but are just at the tail end of the old era. Entering the new era must be a breakthrough of a class and the establishment of a culture, but now none of this has happened, everything is controlled by the old forces.
Shentongan worked diligently and devoted himself to his work, while his friends also made their own progress.
Sokka became the representative of Antarctica, while Katara joined the White Lotus Sect, and Toph devoted himself to training to find a higher realm of supernatural powers.
Because Shen Tong failed to resolve the conflicts between the four major forces, the city finally established a parliament, with members sent by the four major forces to carry out joint management, instead of Shen Tong being arbitrary. This would also increase the conflicts.
However, things like parliament are originally the product of compromise. It is because there is no way to unify the local tyrants and evil gentry in various places, so they are allowed to become members. If there is a way to unify, it will be directly through the county system.
It is obvious that magical powers will not unify the world, so it is natural to choose the parliamentary system. Members from various places will definitely continue to fight for their own interests.
The basic structure of hometown, marriage, family, and clan will slowly corrode the new city. It is impossible for magical powers to do anything. From now on, he will basically just clean up the mess. If you want to move, without a new set of culture, it will be in vain.
, so magical powers are also difficult.
What's even more difficult is that nearly 10,000 years have passed since the first generation of magical powers, and it's time for light and darkness to struggle again. Darkness is about to move. An has to spend more effort to maintain this situation. It's no wonder that he has become a man in his sixties.
worn out.
Duran came to the prison and saw Azula. At this time, she was very decadent and sitting in the prison with disheveled hair.
"You look like a loser now." Dulan said, "You have to be strong. Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. How can you give up so easily?"
"I don't have any royal skills now, why are you saying sarcastic words?" Seeing Dulan, the deposed princess became furious.
"The art of control is not important, the story is important. Your story is not over yet. Soon your brother will come to take you to find your mother. I will help you then. You are still young now, and you can still achieve a lot even without the art of control.
"Thirty years to the east of the river and thirty years to the west of the river. Don't bully young people into poverty." Azula was only a teenager, so she had plenty of time.
Azula couldn't help but look at Duran, obviously wondering what this guy wanted to do. He had already lost completely, and he still pretended to be a teacher. What the hell was he doing?
Of course, he was optimistic about Azula's execution ability, so Duran was ready to give her another chance: "Gather up your strength, and you will still have a chance in the future."
Azula will naturally not give up. As long as she has a chance to be released from prison, she will definitely fight her stupid brother again. She won't accept it anyway.
