MTL - God’s Game I Am the Great Will of the Planet-Chapter 780 : Domination of the Southern Border (6) Crown of Thorns and Gold 10-Character Frame
There were many nobles who participated in the Enlightenment, and even Arue, the advocate of the Enlightenment, was an aristocrat himself, but after all, noble nobles like Arue were only a minority. Therefore, the main cornerstone and audience of enlighteners are the general public class of business associations.
These citizens have always hoped to conduct parliamentary elections based on property qualifications, abolish some too bad feudal privileges, oust the power of nobles from all over the world to arbitrarily set up checkpoints, and allow free circulation of goods and commerce. It is all ignored, and the enlightened can only beep in the newspapers.
This situation has continued until now and was only planned to be changed by Fauti II. His stay in Hado for two years was not without gain, at least for Fauti II to discover the influence of the Enlightenment on the general public, and the desire to There is a certain "enlightened ruler" who can adopt their opinions.
Behind the enlighteners are many business groups, large and small. Although these business groups rely on the protection of nobles to do business, they obviously have new plans now. With new plans, enlighteners are their voices.
"Although the Enlightenment is a group of trash who can only verbally condemn, the business group behind them is quite rich. If I join up with this group of business groups, it may be able to suppress those old nobles who want to hinder me."
Fauti II is not afraid of the backlash of the nobles. As long as he has money, he can bring troops, and if the business group can provide him with money, he can recruit many troops, business groups and enlighteners. Collusion, the citizens listen to the propaganda of the enlightened people the most, then they will have a source of soldiers. Now that the spirit flint gun has been invented, the training time of the army is not much different from the gap.
In this way, the money bag and the gun barrel are caught by themselves. With these two things, I am still afraid of a bird noble? If you are going to take the risk of the world and rub all the nobles on the ground, what can they do?
Of course, when Fauti II decided to do this, his heart flickered a little bit of unease, but it was only a flicker: "After I die, who cares about the flood!"
Since Fauti II made up his mind to cooperate with the enlightened, he has taken many measures in line with the enlightened. Although it is not easy to implement politically, some other social aspects are easy, such as opening the party ban and abolishing the censorship of newspapers. , freedom of the press, etc., so Fauti II was known as the enlightened president.
Relying on the support of the enlightened president, enlightened people have formed political parties to promote the "enlightened" of society. One of the most influential groups is called "reformists", which soon became turbulent in the political arena.
And since Fauti II gave the business group so much convenience, should the business group also support Fauti II? Therefore, no matter what, the business group must give the financial green light to Fauti II's policy, sell kidneys to support Fauti II's rule, and overcome this economic crisis.
But this economic crisis is more serious than everyone expected. For a time, the "Navarra Rebellion" was the focus of attention on the southern mainland, but soon the focus shifted from the Navarre Revolt to the economic crisis. Comments have been made one after another, and this economic crisis can be called the largest economic crisis in history.
Leng Yi naturally knows the reason for this. It must be known that the generation after the end of the Apocalypse War has grown up, and the loss of the impetus of the Apocalypse War and the influence of the "Metatron Disaster" have begun to gradually ferment. The dividends from the opening of factories during the Apocalypse War have now declined, thus triggering this economic crisis.
But how can this be done? Nearly a thousand years after the "Ambition of Iron" plan was implemented, Leng Yi had long found that he had chosen the Southern Border Continent as an Achilles heel for the plan. This continent was too small.
The too small area makes it difficult for them to support the development of capitalism. The southern border continent, which has not yet developed to the stage of monopoly capitalism, has gradually been unable to carry its own productive forces.
What does that mean? Using the example of a supervisor, simply put, the selling price of a commodity = profit + workers’ wages + other costs, then the total selling price of all commodities in southern Xinjiang = total profit + total wages + total cost, and the second is the Keynesian theory. The marginal propensity to consume is simply that although the rich consume more than the poor, the proportion of consumption may not be as good as the poor.
The result of this is that workers' wages cannot buy all commodities, and there are always commodities that cannot be sold. The result of this is an economic crisis. In fact, since the era of Dofan I, the Southern Border Continent has been based on Shibo. Often fluctuated by economic crises, and with the passage of time and increased productivity, Seber's economic crises have become increasingly destructive.
Or to put it another way, after Xiebo entered the industrial age, economic development was linked to the population that provided labor, and the population increased exponentially in the technological explosion after the Xiebo Industrial Revolution, which in turn stimulated The expansion of productivity and economic scale, as a result, the amount of gold is not enough, and the gold standard prevails in the southern border.
Some people may have doubts, didn't Leng Yi open an alchemy plug-in for the Southern Border Continent? Isn't it possible to extract metals from the gaps in the Southern Border Continent? But you must know that this spell has been invented for almost a thousand years. Even the production of the rich ore belt in the Southern Border Continent has begun to decline, but the industrial productivity is still soaring.
So the question arises, what happens in a society where the quantity of goods soars when the quantity of money is constant and stable? That's falling prices, falling wages, and that's the economic crisis.
First of all, falling prices mean an increase in the real purchasing power of money and a fall in the value of goods. This is a good thing for consumers in the beginning, but it means a loss for producers because it means repayment of the original investment loan. Commodities are also increasing, and producers have more real debt.
In this way, the faster production expands, the faster labor productivity rises, the more prices fall, the heavier the capitalists' real debt, and the closer the investment risks become to reality.
Capitalists are not philanthropists. In this case, the policy they can adopt is to reduce the number of hired workers and reduce the wages of workers to reduce their investment in factories. However, for the whole society, the increase of the unemployed leads to social purchasing power. Sharply shrinking relative to the huge supply of commodities.
In this way, the more the price of commodities falls, the less they can be sold, and soon the price drop becomes "common sense", and the whole society will enter a downward spiral of "oversupply - shrinking demand".
Secondly, the commodities produced by capitalists’ loans and their prices are also important basis for bankers to decide whether to recycle loans according to the financial status of capitalist factories. When capitalists are in such a situation, bankers with serious doubts will refuse to issue new loans. , and then you can see the capitalists lining up to jump into the river.
As a result, the crisis will spread from the real economy to the financial system, and spread to the entire southern Xinjiang continent through the world trade system. In the end, everyone will be finished together. This is the crisis that Xibo is facing.
Facing this kind of scene, Leng Yi couldn't help thinking of a passage from the earth, "You put the crown of thorns on the workers' heads, and you crucified mankind on the golden cross!" Victims crucified on a golden cross.
In the past, Shibo’s countermeasures in the face of the economic crisis were nothing more than based on the idea of free trade, if the lower-level civilians died, the big deal would be thrown into the colony, but now the colony is increasingly saturated, and it can no longer carry new immigrants like in the past, or It is said that immigrants were still unemployed in the past, and another point is why this crisis has been so long.
Spring and autumn have come again, but the crisis is still there. Fortunately for Fauti II, he has drawn the enlightened people. Therefore, in this big crisis, Fauti II's reputation has not been affected much.
why? You must know that the enlighteners have always boasted that as long as rulers use their theories, then the economy will improve and the world will be better, as if their ideas are a panacea, but unfortunately they have been secretly voted by Mingzhu, and now the rulers have finally adopted their theories partly , It's too late to hold, how can you criticize it?
But what if the adoption of their theory failed to save the economy? Of course, the enlightener can't slap himself in the face, and he can't scold the ruler who finally adopted the measures of the enlightener. Otherwise, the other party turns his face and chooses to compromise with the old aristocracy again. Isn't the enlightener going to sit on wax?
But it is a reality that the economy is not good. Everyone has a hard time, but your ideas have not been able to revitalize the economy. At this time, someone has to take the blame~www.novelbuddy.com~, and the people who are blamed are the nobles, especially those nobles who oppose Fauti II.
It's not our fault that the Enlightenment measures failed to save the economy, and it's not that Fauti II didn't work hard, but because these old-fashioned aristocrats were using various means to obstruct the implementation of the New Deal, which led to the situation becoming what it is now, so I think The only way to save the economy is to overthrow the old aristocracy.
Although the Enlightenment movement has been going on for hundreds of years, in these hundreds of years, the articles of the Enlightenment only dare to criticize some minor nobles, and the main object of criticism is only some ugly phenomena, but it is different now, freedom of speech It's not illegal, so the Enlightenment slammed all the nobles with full force.
According to the enlightener's new statement, the economic failure is due to the obstruction of the old aristocracy. If you want to save the economy, the old aristocracy must be overthrown. However, the union of Fauti II and the enlightener is already his limit, and he himself is a royal family. I wouldn't really go out of my mind to defeat the old nobles.
So the situation was so stalemate. Fauti II took enlightened measures and achieved certain results, but the overall situation was still grim. The enlighteners, on behalf of the public opinion, criticized the conservative aristocrats. Of course, most of the conservative aristocrats were indeed obstructing the implementation of the New Deal. , and Fauti II refused to do anything to the old-fashioned nobles, so he could only limit himself to verbal scolding.
This stalemate ended in 2908, and the economic crisis was officially over. This was because enough people jumped into the river, and those who fled to the colonies fled to the colonies. Although the colonies are not as popular as they used to be, they are still alive. Of course, the most important thing is the dragon fruit. 's discovery.
To be honest, when Leng Yi heard the name, the idea of using the system to rename this thing lingered in his head for a long time.
