Will the earth become a village? No one could imagine this scene, and of course Xiao Letian didn't expect them to imagine it. After all, for people of this era, that scene was too science fiction!
But Xiao Letian has seen real historical data on the evolution of the labor movement in the following decades!
In real history, the suppression of the Paris Commune was so tragic that this painful memory cannot be erased, and this time it also cut off all living space for utopianism.
No one believes in the kindness of the enemy anymore. Their eyes have been washed with blood, and they finally understand the cruelty of class struggle!
Either you die or I die. In the following years, the contradiction between the two classes was completely unreconcilable, and the working class also gave up the illusion of forming a government together with the capitalists!
The struggle finally turned into the pursuit of independent nation-building by various forces, and the class struggle directly evolved into a war between countries!
No one will give in even a little bit, because everyone knows that their hands are stained with the blood of the other party, and they are surrounded by the wronged souls of the other party. Whoever gives in will die without a burial place!
Where is the root of all this? The Paris Commune movement was an unavoidable obstacle. This bloody and cruel struggle really got off to a very bad start!
Xiang Ying summed it up very well. The struggle between these two classes is actually the two sides of industrial society. No one can do without the other, and no one can subdue the other!
The cruel law of the jungle has made all countries realize that they cannot survive without industrialization. After the Franco-Prussian War, World War I and World War II, including the Cold War, many ancient countries in the world were destroyed, and even the powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire could not defend themselves. Live in your own country.
The destructive intensity of several wars has rapidly escalated, and the destructive power of war unleashed by industrial countries has frightened the whole world!
Faced with such a cruel reality, what should we do in this world where if we fall behind, we will be beaten and destroyed?
There is no other way but for all countries to start the process of industrialization. Regardless of whether they can dominate one party, they must have some ability to protect themselves!
However, the more human society relies on the powerful power of industrialization, the more powerful the devil of class struggle becomes!
The expansion of industrialization means that capital on the one hand is becoming more and more profitable, and on the other hand, the group of industrial workers is also becoming larger and larger!
The result is that the war between countries has not yet decided the winner, but the workers' movement in each country has broken out in full swing!
After the Franco-Prussian War, in Bismarck's last years in charge of the empire, almost half of his energy was focused on the class struggle within Germany. At that time, Germany's industrialization process developed rapidly, and the result was that domestic conflicts also intensified!
This is an irreversible trend, and the Chinese will definitely encounter the same problem. It will not be very far away. As long as the fortress plan is implemented, fierce conflicts will break out within 20 or 30 years!
Several times, Xiao Letian stayed up all night because of this problem. He kept asking himself, 'How can I control the situation once the number of industrial workers exceeds 10 million in an area controlled by the Chinese? How can the struggle be moderated to a manageable level? '
After asking all night, there is no good solution, just some vague ideas!
So if the development continues, the Chinese will control 100 million industrial workers in the future. What if such a large working class starts to conflict with capital?
Many late nights Xiao Letian wanted to give himself a slap in the face. Why do you think you are so lazy and want to time travel? This is not a job for humans!
Do you really think that developing a few black technologies, developing a few new weapons, and industrializing them in advance can turn the tide?
Since ancient times, every benefit will bring about a disadvantage. This is the law of nature. If you want to have strong industrial strength, you have to understand that there are disadvantages behind the symbiosis with the benefits!
Do you really think the time traveler is omnipotent? Do you really think that people who came here enjoy a happy life? What a big mistake. The time traveler has committed sins in several lifetimes, or he has committed great sins. God punishes him before letting him wear it!
Tired! It’s really not a job for humans!
It's a pity that there is no wormhole that Xiao Letian can go through in reverse. They have already been placed on Chaishan Mountain, so let's continue suffering!
Everyone who was leaving the conference room looked at the extremely tired look of the head of state. They all felt distressed but could not say anything. They could only open the door with a sigh and go out to work.
Hyōtaro's eyes turned red and he turned away, "I'm going to make ginseng chicken soup for my adoptive father!"
Only Xiang Ying was the last one to leave the conference room. He looked at Xiao Letian and hesitated to speak, but the head of state laughed and scolded, "If you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have anything to say, let it go..."
Xiang Ying's sly eyes blinked, "Master! You must have the answer. You must have the answer to that difficult problem! Since I saw you, you have never asked a question without an answer!"
"What's the way to break the situation? Master, please show me!"
"Damn! Do you really think you are Monkey King? You are the only smart one!" Xiao Letian smiled and shook his head. "This is the big problem of the century. It is a problem that many top politicians in the country are studying. Do you think it is that simple? "
"To tell you the truth! I don't have the answer here...but..."
"Master!" Xiang Ying took two steps forward and looked at Xiao Letian with shining eyes, full of desire.
"I don't have the answer, but I have a few ideas..."
"Master, please clarify!" Xiang Ying knelt down on one leg on the spot!
Xiao Letian shook his head, "Now is not the time. Wait until the end of the commune movement, when you have witnessed the whole process with your own eyes and have some understanding in your hearts..."
"I will tell you these ideas...don't be anxious."
Xiang Ying didn't get the answer in the end, but it was good to get the master's promise. He decided to keep an eye on Paris during this period. Whenever he had time, he would go to the station outside Chapelle to see the development of the situation with his own eyes. .
When the conference room became quiet, Xiao Letian opened the window a crack, let out the smell of cigarette smoke in the room, and then sat behind the table in a daze in silence.
There were several pieces of white letter paper and a golden pen in front of him. His expression was very hesitant. He didn't know whether he should write this letter or not!
But at the last moment, a little kindness in his heart overcame the cold-bloodedness of the politician, and he began to write furiously on the letter paper.
"Dear friend, I wonder how the weather is in London recently? Are you living well? If you have financial difficulties, you can contact my embassy or consulate and I will do my best to help you!"
"The situation in Paris makes me very uneasy. Although I admire the behavior of those revolutionaries who are full of passion in their hearts, I am also full of worries..."
"After all, I am an invader in the eyes of the French, and I have no friendship with them, so some words should be conveyed through your mouth..."
"My old friend, from the standpoint of a non-political figure, I strongly recommend that the Paris Commune immediately disarm and enter into integration negotiations with the National Government..."
The pen rustled, a secret letter was waiting to fly to London across the channel!
