Chapter 6445: Hard Work Leads to Wealth?

In today's society, there is a strange cycle.

First of all, in today's world, the concept of getting rich through hard work almost does not exist. Of course, in reality, the term "getting rich through hard work" has always been controversial.

Who are the most diligent people in China throughout the ages? Farmer! From the time of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to the 21st century, farmers have always been the most diligent people.

However, have you ever seen farmers become rich? No! Throughout the ages, few farmers have become rich by facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky. It’s already good to be able to keep a family full of snacks.

Once there is any natural disaster, farmers may be displaced. In ancient dynasties, whenever there was a natural disaster, the victims would be displaced. Why, because they have no surplus food in their hands. If they encounter a natural disaster and the harvest is not good this year, their life will become a problem.

Why is this happening? Throughout the dynasties, there were many emperors who worked hard to govern, including the most prosperous dynasty. Of course, some people would say it was the Song Dynasty. Indeed, the Song Dynasty was wealthy, but before the Song Dynasty, and further back, the Sui Dynasty before the Tang Dynasty was ruled by Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian. Down below, the barn is full and the cloth is torn.

His wealth was so great that Emperor Shang of the Sui Dynasty "wasted money", but in the hands of Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty, he still enjoyed the legacy of the Sui Dynasty. The rule of Zhenguan was certainly due to Li Shimin's diligence, but it was also closely related to the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty.

As for the so-called people's lack of livelihood during the Sui Dynasty, it was just a propaganda slogan. Of course, it is also true. Because although the Sui Dynasty was rich, all the barns in the country were full of grain and even rotted. However, once a natural disaster occurs or a year of famine occurs, there will still be a large number of refugees displaced.

Why? It is because farmers have no surplus grain. During good harvest years, people still have a little bit of surplus food in their hands, but in normal years, there is just enough to eat and drink. This point is very calculated by the imperial court.

Therefore, if the harvest is not good, it is necessary to borrow grain. Wait for the next year's harvest to be repaid. And once there's a natural disaster, it's over. Then the only option is to flee.

Therefore, farmers have not heard of getting rich through hard work for five thousand years.

The earliest saying about getting rich through hard work comes from "Zuo Zhuan·Xuan Gong Twelve Years": "People's livelihood depends on hard work, and hard work will lead to lack of money."

What does this mean? It means that as long as you work hard, you will not be short of material. This is actually very obvious. Just because you are hardworking doesn't mean you will get rich, it just means that Chaotian will not be short of material things.

In other words, whether the people are industrious or not really has nothing to do with them. The people still have as much as they should have, which will only make the country full of supplies.

In modern times, New China was founded. The working class played the leading role. So is the working class getting rich? Relatively speaking, the working class belongs to people with certain skills, and their living standards and treatment are better than those of farmers. But getting rich? Before the reform and opening up, there was none!

Everyone is the same. Hard work only gives you a little more overtime pay, which makes your life better than others, but it does not make you rich. Of course, in that era of dedication, working overtime was a matter of course and it was to contribute to the country.

Later, with the reform and opening up, did you become rich through hard work? It is true that a group of people got rich first, but they were those who left their jobs and went to do business overseas. They got rich first. Workers are still like that.

Now that we have entered the Internet era, are we rich? No, the working class is getting poorer. No matter how hard you work overtime, the reward you get only makes you better than other workers who don't work overtime, and you don't get rich.

Getting rich through hard work is just a beautiful idea. Of course, as far as Lin Feng is concerned, this word, more accurately, is a lie used by the ruling class to anesthetize the ruled people.

Hard work does not make you rich! This is what Lin Feng said. Hard work can only keep you from starving to death, but getting rich is impossible!

In today's society, when hard work cannot make you rich, it is very sad for ordinary people. Work hard, earn money to support your family, marry a wife and have children. This is common sense and is the right that everyone should have.

This is a democratic society and every citizen has rights.

But in this life, it is too hard to live happily until old age. You work hard to make money to support your family, raise your children, support the elderly, and then wait for your children to start a family, and the cycle starts over and over again. Under normal circumstances, hard work can indeed make your family live a happy life.

However, this kind of happy life is very fragile. Just as the ancient emperors envisioned a bumper harvest every year, the people would naturally have enough food and clothing and be happy.

However, this nature is very cruel. This world is not a peaceful one. This world is full of all kinds of misfortunes. On the road to happiness in this life, the greatest misfortune is the fragility of the human body.

The human body is very fragile. In various accidents, it can range from menstrual injuries to broken bones, to severe disability and death. However, this kind of accident should not exist. There is still a kind of vulnerability, which is getting sick!

If people eat whole grains, there is no reason why they won’t get sick. Especially as people age and frail, they are more likely to get sick. And this kind of disease is usually a serious illness, a serious illness. Once it occurs, a family's savings over the years may be wiped out, or the family's fortune may be ruined. The most miserable thing is that in the end, the money ran out and the person was not saved.

The sick will go to heaven, and the living will go to hell!

"This is a tragedy unique to us Chinese people, poverty caused by illness! But can you not save it?" Lin Feng said in a serious tone, "Many patients say they don't want to save it. Once they are seriously ill, then don't save them. What to save?" Save! It’s a waste of money! Indeed, I don’t question whether the person who said this is joking or testing, I take it seriously. But the problem is that each of us has a conscience. You have a conscience! If you say no, you are happy, but what about the living people?"

Lin Feng's words resonated with everyone.

Indeed, if a loved one is seriously ill, should you save him or her? Saved, the family is in ruins. But if you don’t save me, will you go there with a guilty conscience? Can you feel at ease? Once a loved one dies of illness, you will never forgive yourself for the rest of your life.

This inner suffering is unbearable. It can even be said that money cannot buy it. No matter how much money you make in the future, it will not make up for the guilt in your soul.

This guilt will accompany you throughout your life! You will always think about it, if I had spent money to save my loved ones, would my loved ones have survived? Even if I don’t survive, can I live a few more years and can I be with you for a few more years?

This kind of problem will accompany you throughout your life until you die.

So, if a loved one is sick, can we save him or her? This is not a multiple-choice question, but a question of conscience. Do you go with a guilty conscience?

"So, for ordinary people, the greatest hope is not to get sick! Only not to get sick is the greatest happiness in life! Otherwise, one illness will be in vain! Nothing will be left!" Lin Feng lamented.

All the reporters at the scene were in awe. These reporters are not rich people. There are also cases where family members are sick and have no money for treatment. What's more, even if the relatives around them are not sick, as reporters, they have encountered them.

"So, I want to change everything!" Lin Feng said loudly, "I said that I want to change China, and I also promised to give a sum of 3 million to those who deserve my help! But how can I save this money? , it’s up to me! The money is mine, I decide how to give it! And I decide to change the current medical system!”

All the reporters’ eyes lit up.

How does Lin Feng plan to change the existing medical system? How does he want to change?

"I have discussed with many deans. The biggest headache for everyone at present is that the medical expenses are too expensive! The medicines and equipment used are too expensive! Therefore, after my discussions with many deans, they decided to proceed out of humanitarian spirit. , and for the happiness of the Chinese people, they decided to reduce the price of all medicines and equipment by 50%!" Lin Feng announced.

What! 50% off price! No way! Such an exaggeration! Is this true or false? Everyone exclaimed! This profit margin is too large, it is completely beyond everyone's imagination.

Is this possible? 50% off price!

All reporters looked at the deans! Is what Lin Feng said true?

Many deans were bleeding from their hearts at this moment. The price is reduced by 50%, how miserable this is! To them, this is nothing but meat. But they lost this bet, what else could they do? !

Looking at Lin Feng, they really looked like mugs. They provoked whomever they provoked, you say, they were in the hospital honestly and provoked no one. As a result, disaster fell from the sky. Lin Feng, the demon god, jumped in. You say, is this bad luck or not?

They are so unlucky! This is eight lifetimes of bad luck!

"Yes, after communicating with Mr. Lin, we felt that it is currently difficult for people to see a doctor. We decided to reduce the price by 50% to give back to the people!" Many deans had to stand up and responded to Lin Feng's words, "Of course , all this depends on the final ruling of the Price Bureau and the Food and Drug Administration. We will submit the report later and wait for the approval of the relevant departments!”

Many deans did not insist on their words. Although they lost, this matter still needs to be approved by the superiors. Reduce the price by 50%, what if the superiors don’t agree?

Of course, they had reported it to the superiors before, but the superiors were unwilling to offend Lin Feng, so they did not get involved in their bet with Lin Feng. But the consequences of this gamble are so serious. If the price is reduced by 50%, will the higher ups agree?

The price reduction is certain, but will the higher authorities agree to reduce the price by that much? According to their understanding of the above, the above should agree to reduce the price, but it should not be that much. Maybe 10% is about right! That way, they can still accept it! This basically doesn't affect them.
