Chapter 172 Undercurrents Were Already Simmering
"This is because the pent-up resentment people have accumulated can only be released through this kind of situation."
This is a sign of a frozen state of civilization, where communication between the top and bottom is blocked, and minor ailments accumulate into major problems.
Either don't send it, or take your life directly.
So listen up, everyone in the "sheep pen" across the planet: stop using the data handed to you from below to manage the sheep pen.
No matter how good your medical report looks, it can't protect you from sudden cardiac arrest!
Who is the heart of civilization? It is, of course, the vast majority of people who create vitality for civilization!
Therefore, management requires wisdom; one must learn to "observe, listen, perceive, and assess."
Having said all that, Green Pepper stubbed out his cigarette, took a sip of his homemade goji berry tea, and continued:
"I've thought about the imbalance of the 'cup of water' that everyone is generally worried about."
But my perspective is different from everyone else's.
My perspective is, why do you always think that if you work less, you should reduce your "cup of water" (i.e., get less water from your cup)?
Instead of thinking that your hard work deserves more "cup of water" and that even if you reduce the time spent grinding, the level of "cup of water" should not be lower than before!
It was a minority who took more of your "etiquette" in the name of "etiquette".
Isn't this one of the cakes we were just discussing?
It is a minority of people who are eating more of the cake in your hands every day.
Is it wrong to take it back? Why are you embarrassed?
That makes perfect sense, and I really agree with it.
But take us for example, we are all engaged in the manual industry, and we are paid by piecework or by the hour.
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't get it back. I can't exactly ask the boss for a raise.
I'm afraid if the boss raises the price, he won't make any profit and won't be able to continue operating. Then we won't have anything to eat.
At this point, a particularly striking comment appeared, with an exceptionally high number of likes.
In fact, this concern has been repeated from various angles. When the young teacher saw the comments, he had to stop talking, circle the question, and smile.
Because that's the key point he wanted to make:
Why do people generally have this kind of worry?
Because, regardless of whether it is a developed or underdeveloped region, whether it is Blue Fat Star or a distant star, the fundamental development model is to "squeeze" productivity rather than release it.
To put it simply, a minority of people are clinging to the cake and refusing to let go, while the vast majority of people have no means to fight against it.
Remember, this method is not a "magic weapon," because experience throughout history tells us that in the end, the pie will still gradually become a pie of varying sizes.
As I just mentioned, in this civilization model, everyone is a potential "fish that eats small fish." Whoever's talents are brought into play becomes a big fish that grows up, while whoever's talents don't encounter opportunities remains a small fish that never grows up. It's simply a matter of big fish eating small fish.
Therefore, the real means is wisdom.
When everyone's mindset changes and they are blessed with wisdom, those so-called problems will actually be easily solved.
For example, if housing prices are far higher than the actual market price, then if everyone rationally refrains from buying, prices will naturally come down, and people's basic living needs will be met.
Then, try letting a few people "squeeze" someone who has no worries about life. You can imagine the result. You think you can order me around when you're not even getting a proper "cup of water"? Go hire a donkey, I'm not doing it!
Therefore, the essence of squeezing is that a few people take advantage of the lack of wisdom and ability of the masses, causing the majority to compete and trample on each other, and then reap the benefits.
Once the methods that a few people usually use stop working, they will obediently give up the pie themselves.
For example, if a factory can't find workers, he will proactively add more cups of water.
What if some factories lose profits as a result? They can either use modern technology to improve their equipment and reduce production costs, or increase the price of finished products and ask customers for more profit. In short, they shouldn't try to make a quick buck.
If it's really not working out, then quit. It means your kind of factory isn't suited for the new era of gods. You're just using your talents to take more of what others have and fatten yourself up.
Just like some large handicraft factories, your company has enabled many idle elderly people and housewives in the surrounding area to make the same products by hand at home in their spare time, and the cakes are in their own hands.
It can be said that with the fall of a whale, all things are born and all things find their place.
Only in this way will the few who reap the benefits without sowing stop focusing on cheap "hard work" and start changing the business model.
If you don't believe me, look around you. Some factories have machines that have been used for three generations and are still emitting black smoke.
Why is that? Because those factories have an endless supply of cheap, hard-earned labor, and he can get fat without making any changes.
Try starving him for three meals and see if he changes. If he gets desperate, he can outdo a scientist!
This is also the fundamental reason why every major breakthrough in civilization and technology is closely related to war; those who want a big slice of the pie won't get up early for nothing.
This applies to the entire civilization, let alone ordinary people living within it.
Therefore, in the future, any industrial chain in the world will not be about squeezing the "etiquette" of a few people downstream, but rather about forcing companies to demand "etiquette" from upstream.
I understand. Just like the high labor costs in developed regions like ours, everyone, whether ordinary or wealthy, lives a very comfortable life.
"What do you know? Where do you get the high labor costs and high living standards in those developed regions? It's all about the developed regions squeezing out the underdeveloped regions."
Fundamentally, nothing has changed.
"Try letting those developed regions become self-sufficient, and I guarantee the sheep in the sheepfold will turn upside down."
Seeing a highly upvoted comment on the screen, Qingjiao didn't care about the commenter's intentions and directly retorted.
Because this person simply didn't understand.
Therefore, he revealed some additional glimpses of the future:
"The ultimate result of forcing companies to demand 'etiquette' from upstream suppliers is not high prices and high labor costs, but rather the reclaiming of profits at each level, causing those who steal others' profits when they have none of their own to disappear."
Because after the change in wisdom, people's motivation has changed. They are no longer simply pursuing a cup of water, but truly seeking "wealth".
In those old times, relying on layers of "squeezing" laborers' "self-reliance," they simply didn't have the ability to truly "grab" other people's "wealth."
Naturally, the cake will return to everyone's hands.
【ah???】
I think I can smell the 'no-shovel' odor!
[Quick, quick, explain in detail, I'm taking notes.]
[A true lottery winner!]
Upon hearing about the future scenes, the comments section erupted again.
Quiet down and listen to me.
Green Pepper gestured for everyone to stop typing and then continued:
"The beautiful things seem far away, but they can change at any time."
Moreover, the timing of Heaven's will inevitably change when the times have come to this.
It all depends on whether everyone is aware enough, but of course, it doesn't matter if they aren't.
After all, this generation's thinking is basically deeply imprinted with old perceptions, making it difficult for them to agree with what I call idealism, and they may even think I am too idealistic.
However, if you do not change, you will be eliminated.
The coming world is a world of ascending dimensions, a world connected to cosmic civilizations.
Neither the new generation nor the natural order can tolerate those old people and old stories that do not belong to this era.
This is not an exaggeration; the development of civilization also has its hidden "genetic code," and it has reached a turning point.
If you observe closely, you'll see that the undercurrents have already been brewing for some time.
For example, many children nowadays have certain lifestyle habits, such as not getting married, not owning a house, and even not working.
This is because the celestial fortunes under the heavenly order have changed, and the genetic code of civilization naturally changes accordingly.
Just like the structure of a honeycomb, bee pupae are no different, but the bees that grow out of different honeycombs are different species. Some are worker bees, some are drones, and some are queen bees.
The genetic code of civilization is this honeycomb structure. When the structure changes, the mindset of the new generation will be different.
Many children's behavior stems from the fact that the world's values do not align with their thinking. Lying down is their form of resistance, as well as their waiting—waiting for the arrival of a new era.
If things don't change, there will be more and more children like this, and the result will be the self-destruction of civilization.
Therefore, the only thing all the people on this planet can do is adapt to the new era.
