Originally, the Soviets were opposed to paying concentration camp miners such high wages, but Colonel Glazunov, Li Xiantai's puppet, persuaded the Soviets.

This involves an understanding of "what is wealth". Grazunov said to his colleague Yazov, the actual speaker of Afghanistan: "The essence of wealth is not paper money, nor gold, nor what Marx called 'undifferentiated labor condensed in commodities.'"

The superficial symbol of wealth in modern society is paper money, and the essence of paper money is the distribution of wealth. As long as Afghanistan is primarily traded in the local currency, the central bank has the power to distribute and can regulate social resources through inflation.

The specific plan is to issue treasury bonds, and the funds raised by treasury bonds are the closest to inflation, and whoever gives this money will be the first beneficiary of inflation. Therefore, the best way for the Bolsheviks to grasp their wealth was not to tax them directly, but to issue national bonds.

Now that we understand the essence of wealth, we can understand what is the driving force that drives the generation of wealth, that is, rational distribution. Why did the economy of the USSR fail? Because production is not carried out according to the great division of labor in global socialization.

The strong central government of the Soviet Union tended to develop its economy according to wishful thinking, because it had succeeded in developing heavy industry in the form of a 'five-year plan', believing that an executive order would allow a particular industry to develop strongly.

They tried to extend the experience of the program to all industries, but it failed completely, because the Soviet Union was using its own small planning department to compete with the highly specialized division of labor in the world. The right thing to do is to find what you do best and make it.

What do we have in Afghanistan? Only minerals. Therefore, we need to give the best treatment to the mining workers, so that the human resources of the whole of Afghanistan will be tilted in this direction. A minimum wage of just $200 would make Afghanistan's mining industry extremely competitive internationally. ”

Yazov: "It's going to be $500 in a month, right?" If all the 10 million Afghans in the planned concentration camps were given $500, hehe, comrade, the mining companies needed, you calculate, the companies would pay $5 billion a month. Can you afford it? ”

Glazunov: "Comrade Yazov, it doesn't matter if it's 5 billion or 50 billion, as long as we use the currency we issue, this 5 billion is equivalent to 50 billion. The key question is whether our mining industry is internationally competitive.

But whether it's 5 billion or 50 billion, the money is alive. The $5 billion will stimulate consumption, consumption will drive production, and other industries will emerge.

Maybe 2.5 billion will be transferred to other industries in the first month, which is equivalent to our indirect investment of 2.5 billion, and 2.5 billion will be passed on for the third time.12 500 million to the next step, and Afghanistan's economy will live.

Comrade Yazov, the Soviet Union is undergoing a structural transformation, and if you can manage to turn the Afghan republics into a profit, you may be able to enter the Central Committee of the Bolsheviks. ”

Yazov, who was originally unmoved, was shocked when he heard this, yes, although this plan is deviant and contrary to Marxism, it is really a way to break the ice of the system.

Glazunov was a businessman, and he thought the term "international competitiveness" was really good. Yazov didn't understand this very well, but he considered the political interests, thought about it carefully, and said: "10 million Afghans are engaged in the mining industry, do you think it will be competitive?" The labor cost is high! ”

Glazunov: "Actually, the mining industry is a superficial phenomenon, and giving Afghans a chance to learn is the key. Few countries will notice that, in fact, human society is no longer the society with high learning costs of the past.

Thanks to the emergence of cyborgs, they can provide very cheap teaching materials, and can even translate a large number of foreign language materials into a language that Afghans can understand. Of course, it doesn't take 10 million people to mine, but mining companies need a lot of supporting workers.

The mine needs a canteen, right? Need a bathhouse, right? Need to be cleaned, right? Need a doctor, right? A large number of supporting jobs are related to the necessities and services of life, and the direct employees of the mining industry, we at the mining company, will do so in the most efficient way in the world.

All Afghans need is job training. When they master labor skills, they will naturally go to their own business for a higher income, after all, the supporting income provided by the mining company will not be too high. ”

Yazov: "Cyborg...... This, it doesn't seem right, this will be controlled by cyborgs. ”

Glazunov: "Yes, this is what humans are worried about, so even the United States and developed countries in Europe are full of vigilance and do not make large-scale use of cyborgs as a good resource. This is our chance in Afghanistan, and anyway, our Afghanistan is poor and white, and all we have to lose is shackles.

Comrade Yazov, do you think that we still can't control the situation? Don't forget, we've already herded everyone into the concentration camp, and if we find out that something is wrong, we can stop it with a thunderbolt. ”

Yazov smiled: "This is really a huge advantage, good! Let's give it a try. ”

Glazunov: "Since cyborgs are here, sooner or later they will be integrated into the daily life of our human beings, well, just like that, we let cyborgs be the lowest level of labor, and the functions of humans are gradually transformed into overseers, and we are the supervision of the Afghans, such a perfect chain of cooperation, why not adopt it?" ”

The process of communicating with Yazov was also the process of clarifying Glazunov's own thinking, and originally Li Xiantai did not convey a complete idea, but at this time Comrade Glazunov had already thought it clearly.

The nature of wealth? This sentence kept circling in Glazunov's head.

Why does efficient automation increase wealth? Won't they bring about huge job losses?

Most national policies fail because they don't think about it clearly. Unemployment is a good thing, because it means that the human resources of a society can be "enough", so let's quickly transform, desperately maintaining inefficient employment is the main culprit that hinders economic development and hinders the growth of wealth.

Political correctness has always been unreliable, for example, the current concentration camp strategy is a good way to encircle and suppress the guerrillas, although it is not politically correct, but it quickly stabilizes society, and the help to the economy is subversive.

The key to unemployment lies in re-employment and learning, and now the situation is to learn vocational skills with the help of cheap cyborgs instructors. Now, of course, Afghans are not re-employed, but "first employed", and the transition from a primitive self-sufficient society to a competitive society with a large division of labor is essentially the same as re-employment.

The concentration camp strategy led primitive people to enter the "city" one after another, forced to divide and cooperate. Lazy human nature? No problem, Li Xiantai will instruct SB to develop a large number of work and entertainment programs, so that slachers can combine work and entertainment.

Recreational work may or may not be more efficient, but in general it will greatly improve the working conditions and improve the conflict between the ruler and the enslaved.

Instead of boringly blowing the wind and soaking in the sun in broad daylight, why not "play the labor game?" "Not only can I live a rich life, but I can also make money.

The Afghans are probably the first humans accustomed to being "coached" by cyborgs, and their low-level civil servants are almost always outsourced to procedures. It's not that the cyborg comes directly to be a civil servant, but Li Xiantai asks SB to formulate procedures, assign work, study, and evaluate work points, which is completely a procedure.

Fairness, justice, and openness have never been so close to mankind, and it is unthinkable that this thing is not happening in developed countries, but in ...... Humble Afghanistan.

The whole of Afghanistan is a testing ground for Li Xiantai, and he is playing a big game of chess.

Using the Internet, Li Xiantai secretly recruited a large number of programmers around the world, and used the shredder function distribution mechanism to form a large and efficient collaborative programming group. Their job is to build a programmed society for Afghanistan, a country of more than 10 million people.

These highly divided programmers, some of whom even specialize in a complex function, can imagine how proficient they are at using this function. For such program apes, Li Xiantai is not satisfied with their efficiency, combined with his own experience, he wants to find a more powerful solution.

Inspired by the phenomenon of synesthesia, Li Xiantai believes that it is theoretically feasible for the human brain to directly control the generation of code, just as humans can freely control speech, and after training, humans can directly transform the sounds that can be produced by the throat into visual information.

Do you want to output the words and phrases in your mind to the computer? Originally, it was difficult to control, but after the synesthetic response with the speech organs, it became possible for human programmers to output language directly.

Function-proficient programmers, with the help of the direct output system of consciousness, will become the right-hand man of Lee's "Humans Catching Up with Cyborgs" project. Although the Unsullied warriors are good, the diverse assistance is the power that Li Xiantai values, and the countless possibilities of nature make him feel that the human being who is "full of distractions" is also terrifying.

The fact that Lin Mao, an amateur engineer, was able to invent the monster of the super turbofan launch platform with the help of cyborgs is a testament to the terrifying power of human beings.

Breakthroughs in human engineering continue to be made, and now, YPLP, a company on the west coast of the United States, has announced that it has successfully accepted a high-speed transportation system with near-vacuum pipelines built using Z vacuum chamber materials, and experimental pipelines have achieved supersonic results using such technology.

And the energy required for this supersonic speed is higher than that of the current high-speed rail. The cost of manufacturing is half that of the cheapest Daqing high-speed railway, which costs $20 million per kilometer and YPLP is more than $10 million.

The California government has approved a 600-kilometer sonic high-speed rail plan from Los Angeles to San Francisco, with a total investment of only $6 billion, and once completed, the whole of California will become a "half-hour economic circle".

Once the United States launches such construction in an all-round way, the entire western part will be a "two-hour economic circle," and the entire eastern part will also be another "two-hour economic circle."
