Crossover in the Anime World

Shentong hopes to build a city where everyone lives in harmony. This desire is obviously unrealistic, but it is also in line with his character of pursuing the best of both worlds in everything.

To build a city, you must first complete the original accumulation, which is entirely dependent on everyone's support for magical powers and a convenient transportation environment. It is not because ordinary people live together with the masters that the original accumulation is completed. Ordinary people are not literate these days, and they still need to spend money to popularize education before they can develop.

Once the infrastructure, education, and medical care of a big city are established, it will inevitably attract outsiders around. These outsiders either come to pan for gold, or come to settle down, and the limited conditions of the city cannot contain everyone.

If public facilities for 1,000 people are built first, 1,110 people will be attracted, and the next 100 people will not be included. If you build a facility that covers 10,000 people, it will attract 11,000 people, and so on... There will always be some people who are not included in public facilities and cannot receive education and medical protection. At the same time, because of the continuous entry of new people, the asset prices in the city will remain high.

But big cities represent the priority of information, and the priority of information represents opportunities, which will continuously attract more people.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to prevent urbanization. We can only get rich first and then get rich, and rely on the cities that developed first in the geographical environment to develop other places without geographical advantages. This will ensure that conflicts can be alleviated.

However, Shentong obviously did not have such an idea. He just naively thought that it would be enough to build a harmonious city.

"Then why do you all want to live together? Is there no other goal? If there is no goal, then ordinary people have the interests of ordinary people, and the magician has the interests of the magician. If the contradiction between them cannot be reconciled, then this The city will be full of all kinds of conflicts. In the end, Shentong An will stop at second-rate talents and cannot become first-rate.”

Duran's requirements are still very high, saying that if Ann is only harmonious for the sake of harmony, it is impossible. Harmony is for a greater purpose, a great purpose for which everyone can accept compromise.

"Your requirements are really high." Jie has completed his revenge and defeated the Fire Nation in the war, but he is still confused about the future. He also recognized Ann's goal, a city where everyone can be harmonious, but now after listening to Duran's various explanations, he found that to achieve the goal, the most important thing is culture, a culture that allows everyone to trust each other.

Why do ordinary people and magicians trust each other? How to trust each other? These problems are not solved by magic powers.

It's like how can the nobles and savages in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period trust each other? It is definitely not enough to rely on Shang Yang's south gate standing trees. Although the law can stipulate that benefits are transferred from the nobles to the savages, it is not certain that the two sides can really trust each other.

Shang Yang's approach is to expand, as long as the interests are sufficient, everyone will share the spoils. There is no such thing as trust or distrust, everyone is a grasshopper with a rope.

But expansion is not forever, and in the end it depends on Mencius' righteousness. When the expansion ends, it is up to justice to redistribute resources. To sacrifice one's life for righteousness, take righteousness as the highest standard. Abandon the altars and ceremonies of the nobles, use justice to regulate the nobles and savages, ensure mutual trust between the two, and use justice as the distribution standard.

In the face of the crisis of trust between ordinary people and magicians, Ann can't handle it. Ann will formulate laws and rely on her own moral character to set an example, but it has not created a culture that is acceptable to both parties. Then, when the interests are not divided enough, and after Ann dies, conflicts will break out in a concentrated manner.

Because there is no basis for trust, both parties do not know what to do to gain the trust of the other.

The reason why the supernatural power is trusted is entirely because of the accumulation of supernatural powers over the past hundreds of generations. Even if An has disappeared for a hundred years, once he returns, everyone can continue to trust him. You must know that the ending of the first generation of supernatural powers was very bleak. He wanted to create peace all his life, but in the end, peace did not come. He was also old and had to fight on the battlefield, and finally died on the battlefield.

The trust gained by the supernatural power did not appear out of thin air, but was achieved by the supernatural powers of the past dynasties.

It is a pity that it is too difficult to create a culture. It is very difficult to get everyone's approval and to make everyone accept a value. As the old saying goes, one of the hardest things in the world is to make other people's money your own, and the second is to put your own thoughts into other people's heads.

There is no brainwashing device in this world, and it will directly make everyone believe in the good things of the same thought without pressing a button.

"The time is right and the place is right. I think now is the time for the birth of a new culture." Duran believes that now is the opportunity for the birth of a new culture. If Shentong can seize the opportunity, it can reduce a lot of trouble later.

Jie doesn't understand very well, and of course he doesn't know how to invent culture. What is the definition of culture?

"Let everyone accept the injustice in the distribution relationship, and enable different classes in the distribution relationship to trust each other and cooperate. The rituals, words, and ideologies that can achieve this goal are culture." Duran said that culture is necessary.

This is really difficult to achieve, anyway, Jie can't handle it.

Ann couldn't figure it out either. Although the construction of the city was going well and many people were willing to come and settle down, on the whole, everyone was looking at the face of the supernatural powers. When everyone's strength rises and the magic power is removed, the deterrent power of the magic power will be reduced a lot, and the disobedient people will emerge one after another.

At the same time, after the development of the city, more and more people will come to the city to make a fortune, but not only the honest and duty-bound wage earners, but also some criminals who want to get rich. These existences will deepen the contradiction between ordinary people and magicians .

After the contradiction deepens, ordinary people and magicians will create confrontations in order to protect their own interests~www.readwn.com~ There will be a chain of suspicion. Careful people will also add fuel to the fire, destroy harmony, and finally war and tragedy.

"So now we must first let everyone get a new identity, and then we must care for the disadvantaged."

"Why care for the disadvantaged?" Jie asked.

"Come on, this is the question that culture creators have to answer." Duran was very happy that Jay had raised this question. On the contrary, there is another question: why should the disadvantaged group believe the powerful group?

Confucius did not answer this question, but Mencius answered it, so the way of Confucius and Mencius was linked together, because Mencius supplemented Confucius' benevolence.

Why benevolence? Why righteousness? If you only start from the interests, it is enough to ensure your own interests, why should you care about the vulnerable groups?

The ruler, the minister, the minister, the father, the son, and the son, if only the ruler and the father and the father are all they need to proceed from the interests, the minister and the son can be completely ignored. Why should benevolence, why should a ruler care about his ministers, and why should a father care about his son?

Mencius believes that this is because people have four virtues: compassion and benevolence. The heart of shame and evil, the end of righteousness. The heart of resignation, the end of courtesy. The heart of right and wrong, the end of wisdom.

Humans have these four beginnings at birth, so human nature is inherently good, and everyone should trust each other. Humanity, righteousness, courtesy, and wisdom are also formed spontaneously in the heart, and everyone has it. Because human beings are inherently good, it is natural to care for the disadvantaged. It is just like being sad when a cow is killed, or anxious when a child falls into a well. It is human instinct. It's just that people grow up and are blinded by interests, so they have doubts about caring for the weak.

Later, those who want to do great things will advertise themselves as being loyal, and the main performance is to care about those who are weaker than themselves. And the weak must use their own actions to guard the rules of the strong and form complementarity. Building trust through this interactive act is righteousness.
