Chapter 282 (1/2)
After laughing, ello took a spoon and ate the noodle soup in his hand. He smiled and said, ”in fact, there is no way to live in peace between human beings. It's just that many people don't realize it yet. ”
Hearing this, the members' eyes suddenly lit up again. Cream said with great interest, ”president, you won't talk about the economy again, will you? It seems that there are no problems that cannot be solved by the economy in this world. ”
Ello deliberately put on a straight face and said, ”sorry, it's really an economic problem. In the final analysis, the reason why wars occur between people comes from economic inequality and conflict of interests. To put it more simply, I don't have water to drink, but you have water here but won't give it to me, so I can only come and grab it. ”
”We cannot say that there is no war purely because of faith in human history, but at the personal level, participating in a war may be because of faith, but it is a pity if we enlarge the war from local individuals to both sides of the participating countries, and even all countries around the participating areas, In the final analysis, all wars are due to economic problems. ”
”The reason is very simple. Just like me, the guild president of mermaid song, do you think I will take you to the capital to find the other party to ask for a crime because a member of a guild in Hanhai City scolded me? But on the contrary, if you, or a member who will join our mermaid song in the future, is a person with a strong sense of honor in the guild, you may rush to the capital to find trouble because of someone else's scolding. This is why there will be great differences between individual local judgment and overall macro judgment. ”
Use simple examples to illustrate, so that these guys can simply understand these principles. This was taught by the teacher when he was reading. Now he hopes to teach his members in these ways.
Cocoa nodded: ”brother president, I understand the truth, but you just said what method can stop the war between humans. You said this method is economy, so what is it?”
Arrow smiled and said, ”as I just said, war is because there will be conflicts between interests. I don't have you. I have you. This conflict of interests will lead to war. ”
”But if you think in another direction, if you have water and I have no water, similarly, I have fertile land and you have saline alkali land, the problem will be solved.”
”You give me water to irrigate my fertile land and let me drink at the same time. You won't be tired of running without water. Then I will give you the crops I planted, so that you can eat full and not hungry. In this way, although there will still be a state where you don't have what I have and I don't have what you have, you and I can become a state of cooperation rather than competition. ”
”I taught you before, didn't I? Money is valuable not because of its value, but because we human beings will give it value. The basic value of money lies in exchange. Some money that can't exchange actual goods or services is no different from the stones on the side of the road. ”
”One of my economics teachers once said to me this sentence - why bother to grab what you can buy with money?”
”At first glance, I feel speechless. What I can grab directly from you, why spend money to buy with you? Isn't that the opposite? ”
”But as long as you think about it carefully, you can understand what my teacher means. If I rob directly, it seems that I have benefited, but from a deeper point of view, I have created a concept of 'unsafe' for others.”
”I succeeded this time, but if I want to rob again next time, others will become very vigilant and guard more strictly. At the same time, since I can use violence directly, it is tantamount to acquiescence that others can also use violence against me. This is why I have always told you not to use violence against others easily, let alone ignore life and kill at will. What you can do to others, of course, others can do to you. This is logic. ”
”But if I don't use violence, but exchange money for what you have in your hand, you will be very happy to give me what you have in your hand. I don't have to work hard, you won't become more vigilant, and I won't become a ”dangerous person” in the eyes of others. Of course, I don't agree with the legitimacy of other people's violence against me. ”
”Well, as long as they can keep enough money in their hands, they will maintain a very close state of cooperation through continuous exchange of materials. Of course, there will be no hostility or the concept of war between them. This concept can also be gradually extended to countries, three countries, four countries, and even all countries in the world. ”
”As long as every country can concentrate on managing a resource that other countries do not have, the world will completely eliminate war. The relationship between people will become extremely close and harmonious. ”
”This is one of the theoretical foundations of economics. My teacher always believed that through the study and implementation of economics, most of the wars in the world can be contained, so that the people can live a happier life. ”
ELO said, his face was red against the fire, as if he were immersed in that happy memory.
