Chapter 43 Laws
The process of converting the value obtained by human labor into currency is pricing.
The process of converting money into goods is pricing.
The process of converting goods into currency again is still pricing.
This is a quantitative process, and it is also a process that is least likely to weigh on one's own.
How important is pricing power in this process?
How hidden is the pricing power to exert its power?
Ying Zheng didn't know it before, but now, he knows it.
"So all the profits were taken away by merchants, right?"
The process of taking away profits is the process of cannibalism.
But in this model, Ying Zheng could see that the first person to eat the most plump and flesh was a merchant.
"Most." Ju Zizhou nodded, and some people appeared in front of him.
He stared at the people in front of him.
Those people were running, holding something in their hands, and when they met someone, they stopped and knocked on the door, then took out some things from the things they were holding, and then left.
They were wet in the rain and ran quickly.
Ju Zizhou looked at these and laughed.
This is supposed to be delivering meals.
"So, as long as there is a transaction, this kind of swallowing will not stop, right?" Ying Zheng sighed.
Simulate in your mind anyway.
Inferring from known experience no matter how it is.
The cold conclusion in Ying Zheng's mind was: as long as the transaction still exists, no matter whether the currency exists or not, this hidden swallowing will never stop.
The only difference is how much you eat.
Thinking of Ju Zizhou's attitude and thoughts, Ying Zheng had a hundred reasons to believe that Ju Zizhou hated this kind of swallowing.
He called it the process of exploitation...it should be impossible to remove it!
Then what is he working on?
Then why, why can he be so firm and so calm?
No matter how much Ying Zheng thought about it, he couldn't understand it.
"Are you completely arranged these people to deliver meals?" Ju Zizhou looked at it for a while and asked with a smile.
Ying Zheng took the umbrella, got under Ju Zizhou's umbrella, and said, "I'm tired after holding the umbrella for a long time."
"So it was your arrangement." Ju Zizhou felt a little regretful, but he was relieved soon.
Yes, I have asked too much.
Judging from the progress, the progress is now very fast.
However, if there is no way to expand in the future, if they lose Ying Zheng’s backbone for doing this in the future, they will probably suffer some trouble, right?
Thinking went too far and forgot the reality for a while.
Ying Zheng looked at Ju Zizhou's expression and confirmed a lot of things.
Ju Zizhou knows these things.
"So which group of people are getting the power they require?" Ying Zheng asked.
"All of them." Ju Zizhou narrowed his eyes: "The increase in productivity has made the same labor more output, which is reflected in the actual content, that is, they have obtained more food."
"And the length of labor and the intensity of labor have been reduced."
"And the price of food is forcibly anchored."
"So what will happen?" Ju Zizhou asked.
"The farming income is higher than before." Ying Zheng replied casually.
"Yeah, so they'll have a better life, right?"
“That’s right.”
"So, can it be understood that the farmers themselves first gain more benefits from their own labor?"
"This is due." Ying Zheng frowned.
"But you can feel that most of the value obtained by labor has been taken away by those merchants, right?"
"That's it." Ying Zheng nodded.
"Did they also get more value from these labors?"
"indeed."
"In the end, it's yours, and you're also collecting more taxes."
"That's right."
"Everyone has made a profit, so should everyone... mention their own price tag?"
“Is manpower more valuable?”
"Yes."
"So this part of the money is to increase everyone's value."
"That is... in disguise, to improve the... status of these workers!"
"They are fighting for the right to speak!"
“That’s right.”
“This is an undepressing reaction process.”
"The productivity increases, and the value of workers will also increase. In contrast, what they require to estimate their own value and social status will be improved accordingly."
"This kind of feedback is all-round." Ju Zizhou smiled: "And it is irreversible, because productivity has indeed improved."
"It's interesting." Ying Zheng smiled: "So, the currency whose value has been fixed has become cheaper than those of them whose value has increased."
"When new values are produced, then the original measurement system must be changed in time."
"The faster the new value is produced, it means that those who produce these values are more valuable!"
"And their requirements will be increased accordingly."
"They wanted to survive before."
"Now they want to..."
"Eat enough!" Ying Zheng sneered: "As long as productivity is in front of us, even if they don't understand these principles, they will unconsciously and instinctively adapt to the new reality they have created."
"They are the people closest to the value itself, and the ones who most desire the change in the measurement system of value."
"So." Ju Zizhou spread his hands and handed the umbrella to Ying Zheng: "So what you want to do depends on yourself."
Ying Zheng is now the king of Qin.
Because of his actions over the past two years, his prestige has even surpassed the former kings.
And he is strideing forward in a direction that surpasses the previous kings of all dynasties.
Now, Ying Zheng has the highest voice and pricing power in Qin State.
He must also grasp the changes in the measurement system that weighs all the changes.
Generally, farmers and workers who are instinctively inducing changes in this system, causing currency to depreciate and their own status to improve may not understand these principles.
Even a simple king or emperor can not understand it.
But Ying Zheng needs to understand.
Not only do you need to understand, but also use it!
If he doesn't use this principle, he will soon find that the rules are pushing him forward.
Once you can't keep up with the regular progress, then the death of the people will only be in front of you!
Ying Zheng watched Ju Zizhou hand over the umbrella to himself, and then walked into the heavy rain alone.
Ying Zheng sneered.
"You know more than me, but what's the point?"
Ju Zizhou knows a lot, so he cannot actually grasp the right to speak and pricing power.
He can only wander on the edge of all this.
Because he knew that if he had actual power in his hands, then Ying Zheng's first mortal enemy would be him!
And now Ying Zheng... is almost invincible.
Ying Zheng laughed, threw the umbrella into the rain, turned around alone, and left with his back to Ju Zizhou.
