Chapter 333 History is always strikingly similar

People surnamed Shi Chen are upright, brave and diligent in doing things, and have no shortage of corresponding abilities. However, they are limited to the environment in which they grew up in childhood, have insufficient vision, and lack the overall situation. Such a person is undoubtedly a sharp double-edged sword.

Suppressing other aristocratic families was originally Elizabeth's plan, especially Randy Stan, who controlled the production of genetic components, was at the top of her list.

Why should Landistan be moved? Naturally, there are corresponding political needs.

If someone has studied the modern history of the Federation and the history of the Celestial Dynasty in the ancient Earth era, they will find the shadow of genetic components, which is the official salt system.

Although salt is not valuable, it is an indispensable thing in daily life. In the Han Dynasty, that is, before Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the country's salt ban was relatively relaxed, and many people made their own money by cooking salt and selling salt. By the Han Dynasty,

In the middle period of Emperor Wu, due to the long-term war against the Xiongnu, the army

The expenses were too much and the national treasury was in short supply, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty accepted the proposal of Dongguo Xianyang, Kong Zhi and others, and established a state monopoly on salt. People were not allowed to cook or sell private salt, and the price of salt was set very high by the government. Dong Zhongshu

The letter said, "Salt and iron are twenty times more beneficial than in ancient times."

This ensured the government's fiscal revenue. Salt was an indispensable material for people's lives. Therefore, the country benefited greatly from it, plundering social wealth in disguise and making up for the fiscal deficit caused by successive years of war.

In addition, for the sake of social stability, the so-called "worry not about scarcity but inequality" is that the profits of salt are very large. The income of salt merchants is as different as the income of cultivators. This will cause the gap between the rich and the poor to become unstoppable and lead to

A hidden danger to society.

The imperial court advocated "agriculture-based". Agricultural society is the most stable and easiest to control society, because people are tied to a small piece of land and have the least energy. If illicit salt is not prohibited, the number of salt sellers will not be affected.

control, and because most areas in China do not produce salt, salt sellers must

Wandering around the country. In this way, at least, it will be difficult to hunt down these people if they break the law. At worst, this kind of salt-trafficking group with a wide range of contacts is very important to the security of the imperial court.

Threatening. Moreover, farmers are simple and merchants are annihilated. The latter is obviously more difficult to rule.

In comparison, during the Federal Silver Cross War, this massive war also lasted for more than ten years. The economy was in recession and the national treasury was in deficit. Under such circumstances, Landistan had already developed the weapon during the war.

Genetic components were included in this function after being decided by the federal superiors.

After all, there is a difference between genetic components and table salt. Genetic components are not necessities in life. However, when there is a powerful enemy like the Empire, because the innate physical gap between the Federation and the Empire is too huge, they will be affected by various kinds of things on the battlefield.

Due to such suppression and disadvantages, popularizing genetic components became a strategic need at that time. Under this situation, the "Regulations on the Management of Reproductive Rights" came into being.

This decree evolved the genetic component that was not a necessity of life into something similar to the salt of the ancient Celestial Dynasty. However, compared with it, eating without salt will make the limbs weak. Without the genetic component, it is impossible to improve the relative strength compared to the imperial people.

Weak constitution.

At the same time, this decree nationalized the production of genetic components, which to a large extent prevented the spread of its production technology due to collusion of interests, prevented uncontrolled private profits, and prevented its leakage to the empire.

To a certain extent, the Federation has been relatively successful in this regard. At least for now, the Empire seems to have not been able to decipher its manufacturing principles and conduct quantitative production with the help of smuggled samples.

However, because this technology is still a patent owned by Landistan, although it is nominally nationalized and a part of it is distributed to the major families, it still occupies the majority and is manufactured under the supervision of the government.

However, history is always strikingly similar. After all, supervision cannot be completely banned. The ancient Celestial Empire repeatedly banned it for personal gain. Driven by huge interests, the amount of smuggled genetic components within the Federation and even to the Empire was also not small.

As time goes by, the gap between the rich and the poor in society has gradually reached a terrifying level, and under the "Regulations on the Administration of Reproductive Rights", a terrifying hidden danger that does not exist in the salt industry has emerged, which is the increasing number of illegal households in the federal territory.

.

Although genetic components can enable people to achieve evolutionary improvements in physical fitness, there is no need for salt after all. It has only become a similar necessity under the provisions of the law. Faced with the high price of genetic components and the dual limitations of life values, some people

Gradually losing legal reproductive rights, more and more illegal black households were born due to biological instincts, genetic habits and emotional needs.

The law was only enacted thirty-four years ago, so the black households have just reached the second generation, but the social dangers they have caused are already very obvious. According to conservative statistics, there are as many as 360 million black households in the entire federation, and

The growth rate is increasing every year. In a sense, this is a ticking nuclear bomb.

If this industry and the law do not carry out subversive reforms, then sooner or later the federation will swallow the consequences it has sown. However, the genetic component industry, like the ancient salt industry, has achieved significant results in the early stages, but whether it is the interest class or the

The scope of involvement is too broad, and even slight changes to it will affect the interests of too many people and become a target of public criticism.

Since the birth of the Han Dynasty, the official salt system of the ancient Celestial Dynasty has gone through nearly two thousand years, and has experienced many reforms in the meantime, but it has not been able to completely eliminate its nature of plundering wealth. If Elizabeth wanted to reform this, you can imagine the pressure she would face.

And the difficulty, to a certain extent, is on the opposite side of the upper class nobles of the entire federation.

Under such circumstances, Elizabeth must not sit back and watch Randy Stan use the biomechanical technology as a springboard to become bigger. Otherwise, Randy Stan will control a military industry that is the lifeline of the Federation while already controlling the genetic components.

, if you try to restrain him in the future, the difficulty will increase geometrically.

Even without Shi Chen coming forward, Elizabeth was prepared to use other measures to stop Landistan. But at this juncture, Shi Chen took the initiative to deliver a fine meat cleaver to her. How could Elizabeth refuse this 'repayment of kindness'?

Good opportunity.

What even Shi Chen himself didn't know was that in Elizabeth's view, Shi Chen's series of actions since returning to the capital star circle were extremely in line with Elizabeth's needs.

The only thing that made her slightly dissatisfied was Yu Tongyuan's placement. Originally, this would be an excuse for her to attack Landistan, but Shi Chen's actions undoubtedly detonated the time bomb buried under Landistan in advance.

, a little lawsuit and public opinion, it is not painful for Randy Stan, who has an eye for enemies.

However, Shi Chen did not disappoint her at the beginning. Under the heavy restrictions from Puke, Shi Chen actually took the initiative to hand over the technology and controlling rights of the biological mecha.

Even Elizabeth did not expect that Shi Chen would do so simply and thoroughly in order to retaliate against Randy Stan. After all, if this technology was put into the hands of anyone else, he would not let it go easily, because it has proven that the ban on mechanical machines

The advantage of A is a future military lifeline, and its value and significance are immeasurable.

Elizabeth was so confident in handing over the combat position to Shi Chen during the announcement because she may be the person in the federation who best understands Shi Chen’s foundation and the origin of that technology, whether it is the technology that Shi Chen has used or his own personal strength.

, she has great confidence.

In Elizabeth's view, Shi Chen's instant victory was a matter of course. She knew how her daughter, a little girl trained by Alsalia herself, could be simple.

But the subsequent accidents were not in her calculations. Shi Chen's sudden attack during the impromptu meeting also shocked her. She was shocked that the head of an aristocratic family could be pushed to the extreme by Shi Chen in such a simple, rude and even rude way.

embarrassing failure

This situation also brought too many troubles and unpredictable variables to her original plan. This is why Elizabeth feels that Shi Chen will die sooner or later without a burial place, and it is also the reason why she does not want to let Isha and Shi Chen

There are reasons for excessive contact.

While drinking Qishan Yunwu, Elizabeth thought about these troublesome things and lamented that neither of her two daughters had anything to worry about. It was even more strange that they could have such a close relationship with Shi Chen.

"Your Majesty, Rudolf wants to visit you soon." Secretary Yan stepped forward again to ask for instructions.

"No." Elizabeth frowned slightly, gently blew the mist in the cup, and said indifferently: "Since you are not feeling well, you should recuperate at home."

She naturally knew that Rudolf came to her at this time to ask for an explanation. If Shi Chen had not acted so radically at the temporary meeting and pushed Landistan into the worst situation, she would have welcomed him at this time.

, however, Shi Chen has completely torn the faces of both parties apart, so there is nothing left to talk about in this limelight.

The cooperation between Shi Chen and Xia Jingming allowed Shi Chen to be labeled as Elizabeth. What Shi Chen did in the public announcement incident of Puke made the upper-class nobles of the Federation think that this move was her instruction. This incident made many people

She feels confused and dissatisfied, and eventually these negative emotions and pressure will be projected onto her.

Elizabeth didn't care about the jealousy of those people, because no one dared to express it to her face to face, but Shi Chen's actions were completely based on his own impulse, completely beyond her original plan, and put her into a state of great passivity.

middle.

At this point, she can only go with the flow and maximize the benefits she can obtain.

In addition, she was not in the mood to meet Rudolf, who had been knocked down from the clouds at the moment, because compared to Shi Chen's revengeful actions, which could be attributed to Shi Chen's bad character, the actions of another person

, she couldn't understand it at all.
