"Ahem cough cough"
Daoyan coughed twice excitedly, but after thinking for a while, he keenly discovered the key to the problem, so he covered his mouth and asked in a muffled voice.
"If it were just a collapse of an industry due to time spreads, it would not seem that it would bring a time crisis to the whole world?"
Jiang Xinghuo gave a positive answer: "It is indeed the case, but don't forget that in the world of "Time Planning Bureau", there are two important principles, the self-nature of time and the identity of time."
"Based on these two principles, two rules have also been derived."
Jiang Xinghuo said slowly: "The first rule is that because time has self-nature, in order to continuate self-life, in the interaction of time, there is actually an invisible hand that is almost like the Tao. In other words, this world believes that people's attitude towards time is self-nature, and this self-nature will manifest itself as self-interest in most of the time."
When Daoyan heard the rules explained by Jiang Xinghuo, he thought for a while and then understood.
Time is life. In order to prolong one's own life, as long as people with basic desire to survive, they will choose to work hard to obtain time. In other words, people's self-nature is about equal to self-interest. When people go to any time market, their purpose is to obtain more time through exchange.
This is equivalent to having a [invisible hand] that matches every person entering the time market, allowing them to make concessions through negotiations based on the principle of voluntaryism and make as much as possible without damaging their own self-interest, with the purpose of reaching a transaction without damaging their own self-interest, and then finally reach a transaction.
Every moment, every minute, every second, there are countless businesses, and the deal is completed under the matchmaking of this [invisible hand].
This is undoubtedly a law that makes people feel quite mysterious.
From a certain perspective, it can even be called "close to the Tao".
Of course, it is just about close to it. It is a little different from the true Tao.
But this difference will make this [invisible hand] go from a divine palm full of holy light to a demon claw dripping with blood.
"The second rule is that because time has the same nature, no one's time needs to be more valuable. So everyone knows that directly holding a large amount of time that exceeds the life-sustaining life is a major waste for time itself."
"Only when the time exceeds the time market, obtain interest rate spreads and increase, will there be no 'waste'." Jiang Xinghuo said to Daoyan on the hospital bed.
Daoyan turned his triangle eyes, but he was confused: "In theory, if the second rule is the truth in the world of "Time Planning Bureau", then those who are rich in time like Li Si will definitely use the time in their hands to invest in manufacturing again, or purchase and consume it, and they will not save too much, except for the necessary maintenance of life, but from Zhang San's situation, this is not the case?"
Jiang Xinghuo understood the meaning of Daoyan. If the second rule is true, the time market should always maintain equilibrium under the theoretical state.
In other words, Li Si devoted the remaining time in his hands to remanufacturing and personal purchases, and remanufacturing would create Zhang San's wage remuneration time, and the total amount of the time market was balanced.
But in the story of "Time Planning Bureau", whether it is Zhang San, a time-deprived person or the "eternal life" standing at the top, the amount of time that the person has has shows two extreme sides.
This means that something must have happened.
Otherwise, it would not cause Li Si to re-made more and more items, and Zhang San spent less and less time. In addition to maintaining his life, the time spent on purchasing daily items will become increasingly embarrassing.
The time market has been accumulating imbalances.
And this imbalance is probably the fundamental reason for the "time crisis".
But although Daoyan could see this, he couldn't figure out which link was wrong.
Because according to the theory of conceived deduction, under the control of the [invisible hand], everything should reach a perfect equilibrium state.
Jiang Xinghuo revealed the answer to Daoyan's question.
"The problem lies in the [invisible hand] that is close to Tao."
"After all," Jiang Xinghuo paused and said again, "It is not the real Tao yet."
It is precisely because it is not the real Tao that it will make mistakes, and for the huge time market, any slight mistake may lead to the ultimate consequences of any slight mistake.
Because a little bit of variable, multiplied by the endless number of transactions at every moment, will make things slide towards the irreversible abyss.
Jiang Xinghuo thought for a moment and said, "Let me give you a simple example."
"For example, Li Si recruited Zhang San and others and made 1,000 servings of food in a day. The price of each serving was 10 time units. Li Si took the time to sell and paid first the raw materials necessary for making food purchased from farmers, and the 2,000 time units spent. Then he paid Zhang San and others a wage of 5,000 time units. The remaining 3,000 time units were Li Si's own interest rate spread."
"If [Invisible Hand] has a perfect effect, then Li Si will take these 3,000 units to continue remanufacturing, squander the rest, and purchase finished products from other time-rich people."
“But the reality is.”
Jiang Xinghuo changed his tone.
"The farmers who make food raw materials, as well as Zhang San and others, their consumption capacity is 7,000 time units, so they can consume 700 portions of food, but Li Sikong has 3,000 time units of consumption capacity, but his expenditure cannot be consumed equally."
Why can't you achieve equivalent consumption?
Daoyan immediately realized that the next problem was probably the fundamental reason for the imbalance in the time market.
"It's because there is another rule in this world that is secretly fighting against the [Invisible Hand]."
Jiang Xinghuo revealed that the [Invisible Hand] is missing from becoming the real "Tao".
Speaking of which, this is actually quite strange.
It was as if two people were playing with the pen fairy. They should have been subjected to balance and stress, but there was one more thing, breaking this balance.
And what extras are the most important effect in economics.
"This rule is called - the decreasing edge effect."
"It's not something that is difficult to understand. To put it bluntly, when you are hungry, you get a plate of ten buns. When you eat it, the first, the second, and even the fourth one are very fragrant. But when you eat it, you are full and you don't want to eat the remaining buns." Jiang Xinghuo simply explained to Daoyan what the decrease in edge effect is.
Dao Yanyi said with a point of view: "In other words, in the world and time market in the story, even if time-rich people like Li Si provide other luxury channels to consume time, Li Si still has endless time, so there will be overproduction?"
Jiang Xinghuo nodded his head and said with certainty: "That's true, this is a problem that cannot be solved by [invisible hand]. It is not only the fundamental reason for the outbreak of the time crisis, but also the fundamental conflict that must exist in prison."
Daoyan has completely understood this point.
He realized the truth.
The fundamental reason for moving from a certain prison to a free prison is that the evil dragon will not only expand and disintegrate itself, but also this irreversible self-destruction will also spawn new powers in crises again and again.
The more times a time crisis occurs, the stronger the new power will be.
In the example just now, farmers who make food raw materials and Zhang San wanted to buy as much manufacturing products as possible to fill their stomachs. They were those who were unable to eat the "fifth buns" and their desire to buy is greater than their ability to buy, but they had too little time and had to maintain their lives, so they could not achieve the diminishing edge effect.
Li Si's dilemma is that he is not as good as the top and the bottom. Although Li Si cannot become an "eternal person", he does not have the troubles of Zhang San. He can afford to eat many buns, and he can even collect gold buns and put them in the cabinet.
But due to the autonomy of time or self-interest, Li Si threw all the buns in his hand and poured them into a stinky ditch, and would not give them to Zhang San.
This self-interest in time is not only the reason why the [invisible hand] appears, but also the reason for the imbalance of the [invisible hand].
It can be said that success is Xiao He and failure is Xiao He.
Therefore, the fundamental conflict between excessive manufacturing and insufficient purchasing power always exists.
"It seems like a curse that breaks out regularly."
Daoyan couldn't help but sigh.
But then, another question emerged from Dao Yan's extremely clever mind.
"But if the time crisis breaks out regularly, the world managed by the Time Planning Bureau will probably collapse soon, right? Is it that simple to kill dragons in that world?"
"Of course, it's not that simple to kill dragons."
Jiang Xinghuo shook his head gently: "The evil dragon is also a magician."
"I hope to hear it carefully!"
Daoyan's eyes lit up.
Although he had clearly known what the evil dragon is composed of and what is the reason for the evil dragon's periodic expansion, disintegration, and destruction, the evil dragon is so powerful that it must not be easily defeated.
In other words, the evil dragon is like the blood-sucking giant insect and will not sit idly by and watch itself die.
The blood-sucking giant insects will release paralysis toxins, and the evil dragon may have similar spells.
Thinking of this, Daoyan's eyes looked at the beam of the Zen room like a sick tiger that was being eaten by objects. There was a weak evil dragon that did not exist. It was revealed that its weakness was grinning at Daoyan with a pretentious gesture.
Next, the last trump card of the Evil Dragon will be revealed to him by Jiang Sheng.
This shows that although it is difficult to kill dragons, it is definitely not impossible.
Daoyan narrowed his triangle eyes and said silently in his heart.
"I have realized the truth, and you evil dragon will no longer be a demon in your heart."
The evil dragon in Daoyan's mind, which did not exist in reality, was looking at the young man in the Zen room with fearful eyes.
He is a dragon slayer and a dragon master.
He knew himself better than himself before he came out.
The spell that I am proud of is just a funny trick in front of this young man.
