Episode 14
At the seaside, there was an adult selling fish at a stall. A little boy passed by, staring at the fish and drooling. The adult asked, “Little boy, do you want to eat? This fish is only 1 dollar, very cheap.”
The boy replied, “I don't have any money…” The boy blinked at the adult and imitated what he had seen on the internet, on stage, in movies, TV shows, video games, and social media. He said, “You caught some great fish. This fish is so fresh, tender, and delicious. Whether steamed, braised, or fried, it will be amazing. It's hard to get fat eating alone, so why don't we share this fish together?”
The adult smiled and said, “Where did you learn that from, little kid? Do you even understand what you're saying? Hahaha.”
The boy blushed and said, “I don't really know what I'm saying, but I saw people say it and laugh happily, so I thought everyone liked it.” The boy asked timidly, “Don't you like to hear those words?”
The adult asked knowingly, “What if I like it? What if I don't like it?”
The boy quickly responded, “If you like it, then I will keep saying it. If you don't like it, then I won't say it.”
The adult saw through the boy's intention and said, “You just want something for nothing, to get something for free without paying any price. It's like having a big clam jump on the street without any reason.”
The boy felt embarrassed and prepared to leave. The adult stopped the boy and picked up a small fish. He said, “If you answer my question correctly, I will give you this fish.”
The boy nodded eagerly.
The adult asked, “Why can you get this fish?”
The boy had no idea, but he quickly thought of an answer and said, “Because I answered your question correctly!”
The adult laughed and replied, “Wrong! Hahaha, you got this question wrong.”
The boy panicked and asked, “Can I change my answer?”
The adult smiled and said, “You can, but what if you answer incorrectly again? How many times will you change your answer?”
The boy looked worried and answered honestly, “I don't know how many times I need to change my answer, and I don't even know the answer.” The boy asked carefully, “Is there a hint?”
The adult hinted, “This question, if someone else asks you, you would answer correctly, but when I ask you, you answer wrong.”
The boy seemed to understand and said, “You're just teasing me. I don't want the fish anymore. I'm leaving.”
The adult waited patiently and called back to the boy, “Take it.”
The boy happily took the fish but still had some doubts. He asked, “Didn't you say that I could only get the fish if I answered correctly?”
The adult chuckled and replied, “Hehe.”
The boy asked further, “What was the answer then?”
The adult said, “You'll understand when you figure it out.”
The boy looked confused and said, “Did I answer correctly or not? I don't understand.”
The adult said, “You got the fish, so you answered correctly. Just understand that and go. I need to attend to the next customer.”
The child left, and then another little troublemaker appeared.
Without hesitation, the second troublemaker took the fish and tried to walk away. The adult stopped them and said, “What are you doing? This fish costs 1 dollar. Leave the publicly money!”
The little troublemaker threatened aggressively, “The other child didn't have to pay, but now you want to charge me. Are you discriminating against me?”
The adult quickly denied, “No, of course not!”
The little troublemaker continued to attack and accuse, “If you're not discriminating against me, then why didn't the other child have to pay? Did they make some underground deal with you? You sick pervert! I won't submit to your tyranny!!!”
The adult was at a loss for words, “I'm not being unfair. I just had too many fish, so I gave some away. Is there a problem with that?”
The little troublemaker threatened menacingly, “Hmph, if that's the case, then give some to me too!”
The adult begged, “I can't give away any more fish. I'm running out, and if I give any more away, I won't have anything left to eat myself.”
The little troublemaker angrily replied, “You're just bullying me with your fish. The means of production must be publicly owned!” The little troublemaker pulled out a sickle and hammer, “You're hoarding these fish and causing us to have nothing to eat. You're forcing us to follow your commands and make money. You deserve to die, you damn bourgeoisie ruling class! Disappear from this world!”
The little troublemaker killed the adult in the name of revolution and didn't have to go to jail.
Another adult approached the fish stand and asked about the price.
The little troublemaker smirked and asked, “Do you want some? If you do, then join us and become one of us!”
The adult asked, “So is it free or do I have to pay?”
The little troublemaker replied, “It's free.”
The adult pointed to the fish and said, “Then give me this fish and that fish.”
The little troublemaker responded, “You have to join us first.”
The adult asked again, “But you said it's free?”
The little troublemaker replied, “It is free!”
The adult repeated, “Then give me the fish.”
The little troublemaker said, “Then join us!”
The adult sighed in relief, no longer stuck in a loop, and agreed, “Okay, okay, I'll join. Are we done now?”
The little troublemaker triumphantly smirked and handed a piece of paper to the adult, saying, “That's right.” They continued, “From now on, every day at this time, deliver the fish to these addresses. Don't be late and don't hinder the progress of the entire world!”
The adult sighed and asked, “What about you? What are you going to do?”
The little troublemaker slapped the adult and scolded, “I have important matters to attend to! If I don't take care of them, the world will end!”
The adult rubbed their red cheek and said, “Let me take care of those important matters for you.”
The little troublemaker brandished their sickle and hammer, “I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again?”
The adult held tightly to the slip of paper, “Don't worry, I'll make sure it's delivered!”
The little troublemaker arrogantly walked away with the fish.
At that moment, another child dressed in designer clothes came over to take the fish.
The adult asked, “Have you joined us?”
The child replied, “Of course I have! The fishing boat that you're using was provided by my family!”
The adult pulled out an old ledger and asked, “Didn't you already pay off your debts?”
The child scoffed, “Debts? These are stocks, permanent stocks. Haven't you read any books?”
The adult asked, “What about when I have to repair the boat in the future…”
The child interrupted, “Of course you'll have to pay for repairs again!”
The adult asked, “And what if I go to another repair shop, or if the boat breaks down like Theseus' ship? Will I still have to give you fish?”
The child didn't even have to think before answering, “Of course you will! My family has already joined!”
The adult rubbed his still-swollen, red face and said, “Why don't we just trade places?”
The child looked at him like he was a fool and said, “Can you build a fishing boat? If you could, you would have already done it yourself. You can't build one, so you try to take from others. It was my family's idea to build the fishing boat in the first place. If it wasn't for us, you wouldn't even have a boat. You should be grateful that you're not bowing down to us.”
The adult couldn't argue with the child's logic.
The child asked, haughtily, “Can I take the fish now?”
The adult nodded and bowed, “Yes, of course. You deserve it.”
The child looked down on everyone and said, “That's how it should be. People should have self-awareness.”
The child took the fish and left, acting like a boss.
At that moment, a small child with smooth skin and delicate features, pure and crystal clear, almost transparent, passed by.
The child lamented, “Pity us humans, burdened with so much suffering.”
The adult sighed, “Ah, I only just realized that this phrase also comes from religion.”
The child smiled, “So which religion do you plan to believe in?”
The adult pondered, “What should one eat? Should one eat pork, abstain from meat entirely, or not eat anything at all? Which is the right way?”
The child grinned mischievously at the adult and asked, “Guess.”
The adult smiled wryly.
The child knowingly asked, “Is there really a difference?”
The adult responded urgently, “Of course there is, there is a difference between good and evil, which allows the good to prevail and the wicked to be punished.” The adult looked at the child, paused for a moment, and continued, “But what is good and what is evil? Does one person's breath have good or evil? When two people are breathing in a confined space, is there good or evil? Good is allowing the other person to breathe easily; evil is making it difficult for the other person. When driving in the desert, should one stop at a red light? In the city, when rushing to save a life, should one run a red light? Even if you save a life, should you pay the price for obstructing others? If everyone being obstructed is willing to accept it, what does the law mean? If you save a life, but violate the rules, then you are breaking the law and must accept punishment. So, should you still help an elderly person stand up? The risks are too great, so one cannot do it! Therefore, ghosts stand behind the gods, while villains use the law to bully others. If a villain kills, then the good person will retaliate, and the good person will be punished. Returning good for evil is easy to say. Without mentioning whether we are all from the same root or whether Ukraine is causing trouble behind the scenes, just consider NATO openly. Even if all countries join NATO except for Russia, what then? Tanks and planes are just transportation, wasting manpower and resources. One can only claim innocence after being attacked by NATO. Two countries have been at war until now, with killers continuing to kill, and other countries may declare war at any time. Doesn't this indicate that every country in the world has hidden motives and ghosts in their hearts? If we view each country as a person, and if every country claims to be good, why do they still fight each other? Surely it is because of their differences, and these differences allow evil spirits to manifest themselves. Man makes religion, religion does not make man.Religion is the opium of the people. It is, therefore, the task of history, once the other-world of truth has vanished, to establish the truth of this world. It is the immediate task of philosophy, which is in the service of history, to unmask self-estrangement in its unholy forms once the holy form of human self-estrangement has been unmasked. Thus, the criticism of Heaven turns into the criticism of Earth, the criticism of religion into the criticism of law, and the criticism of theology into the criticism of politics.”
The adult spoke with deep fear, “Satan.”

The commonly held belief about free trade economics is that goods are sold for whatever price they can fetch.
(A farmer sells 1 kg of grain for 1 dollar) x 10 sales = a house worth 10 dollar
Sell grain at a higher price and the farmer can buy a house with just one sale.
(A farmer sells 1 kg of grain for 10 dollar) x 1 sale = a house worth 10 dollar
In reality, this is not true freedom.
(A farmer sells 1 kg of grain for 1 dollar) x 10 sales = a house worth 10 dollar = (a seller sells a house) x (buys grain for 1 dollar)
This is a monopolistic price hike.
(A farmer sells 1 kg of grain for 10 dollar) x 1 sale ≠ a house worth 100 dollar = (a seller sells a house) x (buys grain for 10 dollar)
The key is how much grain can buy.
(A farmer sells 1 kg of grain for 10 dollar) x 10 sales = a house worth 100 dollar = (a seller sells a house) x (buys grain for 10 dollar)
With machines, work becomes easier, productivity increases, and more people can work. Machines can be improved, work can become easier, productivity can increase, and industries become more diverse, resulting in increasingly crowded conditions.
Strangely, despite the use of accounting books and abacuses, and a belief in yin and yang, but mathematics has not developed.
Freedom… is not really freedom. It is better to honestly tell people how many screws need to be turned to buy a house.
As prices rise, salaries remain the same and supplies do not run short. Shelves are stocked with vast amounts of rice, but you cannot afford to eat, clearly a bug in the system that eats up the rice, preventing you from having any.
The price is fixed. When unexpected events, natural disasters, material shortages, or people in need of water appear, should the price be raised? Can the price be the same for those who are not in need of water as for those who are willing to pay any amount for it? If someone is dying of thirst in the desert and you can save their life by selling them mineral water at a sky-high price, is it excessive? Is that mineral water really worth that much? How much should mineral water be worth? Why is it usually sold for one dollar? If it's usually sold for one dollar, why can it be sold for a sky-high price at this time? Have you figured it out? Yes, mineral water is still worth one dollar, but the sky-high price is the cost of saving lives. You can choose whether or not to charge it. Karma will come back around. If you are in need next time and seek help, how will they treat you?
The price is fixed. Whether to reduce the price or not, you sell grain, and he also sells grain. You plant 7 grains of rice, and he plants 8 grains of rice, but the total number of grains digested by each person is only 10. You sold all 7 grains of rice, so he can only sell 3 grains of rice, and the remaining 5 grains of rice will rot and become inedible. You earned more money, and he earned less money, so he sells at a low price. He can sell all 8 grains of rice, while you can only sell 2 grains of rice, and your 5 grains of rice will rot and become inedible. You sell 5 grains of rice, and he sells 5 grains of rice. 2 grains of your rice become inedible, and 3 grains of his rice become inedible.
Your rice is delicious, while his rice is not. You sold out, but he did not. You plant more rice, 10 grains of rice to fully satisfy the market, why does he still need to farm? If you cannot produce 10 grains of rice, he must farm. Your delicious rice sells at a higher price, while his not-so-delicious rice sells at a lower price. You plant more delicious rice, and he plants less not-so-delicious rice. You are very busy because you can earn a lot of money, while he earns very little money and can afford to be lazy until your delicious rice dominates the market. Then, the not-so-delicious rice can exit without working hard.
Why work so hard to keep the not-so-good stuff in the market? Shouldn't you work hard to let the good stuff rot? The same applies to fruit. The price is fixed. Because it is delicious, the price is raised, and those with a higher score will buy it first. If he buys expensive rice, his score will drop quickly. Do you still think there is no class distinction? Would people with a high score fight with those below for the not-so-delicious rice to save money? If delicious rice can be produced to satisfy everyone's needs, the not-so-delicious rice will exit, and the price of delicious rice will not fall. If someone produces even better rice in the future, wouldn't the grain prices continue to rise?
Excess begets opposite reaction. The food tastes great, and then the next dish tastes even better. You draw a picture, and someone else draws a better one that costs more, and everyone buys theirs. The next person draws an even better one, and eventually it reaches its zenith, becoming a priceless treasure. Who does a piece of artwork belong to, the artist or not? After all, it's not just the artist who contributes, but also their family, their community, their country, the Earth, humanity, animals, the universe, and even extraterrestrial beings. Even a newborn baby is considered to have a share in it. But all this is of no avail when it comes to the fact that unemployed people are still unemployed, and artists still need to eat. So how much should their work be priced? Smarterrr chooses easy tasks, moving his fingers and lying others to work hard, making unrealistic promises, and inciting workers to ensure Smarterrr lives a worry-free life. The truly great comic book anime made 1 billion people to tears and then gave them food. How to eat it all at once? The industrious and reasonable person will eventually finish in the end, which is auspicious.
Tai Chi is born from Wu Ji. An artist's next work compared to their previous masterpiece, creating differentiation and receiving both praise and criticism. The higher the score, the higher the value, and the lower the score, the lower the value. Therefore, the foundation of high value is based on low value, with anything below a certain level serving as a basis. For a classic to become a classic, it truly needs to be supported by mess up beginnings. A foolish king is not a problem, the biggest problem is to be so foolish that one does not even understand who is truly intelligent. When rules are too poor, the people suffer. To neglect the essentials and focus on the trivial. Penny wise and pound foolish. Who holds the power in the world today? Transnational capitalists, citizen ordinary investors, shareholders who elect government directors, directors who elect chairman, all safeguarding their own interests and shifting responsibility. Together, everyone manipulates foreign exchange rates, trade surpluses and deficits. Surplus is a positive, while deficit is a negative. Originally, one bag of rice could be exchanged for ten fish, but after a change in the exchange rate, it can only be exchanged for five fish. Originally, ten fish had to be sold to buy one bag of rice, but now five fish can be exchanged for one bag of rice. Smarterrr learned from this, changed their name to communist, and took advantage of cheap or even free-dom prices to seize power and aim to rule the world. Abundant harvests lead to lower prices, while crop failures lead to higher prices. Why pray for a bountiful harvest and work so hard to harvest so much fruit? When people who want to eat but do not have money now and will certainly not have money in the future? Owning a small amount of debt but paying high interest rates will cause them to quickly pay back the debt. However, in absolute time, what was originally one hour of work becomes two hours under the influence of interest, and even compound interest can keep them working indefinitely. If you owe a lot of money and have many debts, you will be crushed under the weight of your debt, and will simply refuse to work because it is impossible to clear. If you work in the front selling grain and collecting money, and the person in the back who didn't work buys grain and owes you money, they will eat and survive. Because they are full and enjoy life, so they won't work to sell grain and collect money from you, exchange the position will be impossible. Furthermore, because of interest rates, if you give one unit, they will have to give two or even three units in return. Furthermore, with the improvement of machines, the work will become easier and easier, which is very unpleasant. Why should the earlier people suffer? No! The later generations should also suffer the same or even greater pain. The thought of all those people in the future being able to enjoy life so easily and comfortably is simply abhorrent. This buggy rule cannot be changed by voting. Each country is malicious and devious, and their intentions are not good. Everyone has their own plans, so how can the world be at peace? Does America still want to rule the world? Lead by example and change the rules. Do not assume that technological superiority guarantees being ahead of the game, then others will follow suit. The wrong mindset leads to the wrong path, and eventually, only walk alongside those holding sickles and hammers, leading to a dead end.
In the same class, where everyone is equal, to whom should priority be given in selling goods? Grandfather and grandson argued over watching a huge television. The shows that grandfather wanted to watch were not of interest to the grandson, while the grandson preferred shows that the grandfather did not like. If grandfather allowed the grandson to watch, it would be considered kind; if the grandson fought over the TV and watched it, it would be considered greedy. So, if want to lead the people in front , stand behind let other people do first. The one who enters Guanzhong first becomes the king. If the whole country declares war on Russia, even if Russia has nuclear bombs, they cannot destroy the other TV and leave one land on earth. If Russia is defeated, TV no one watches it, anyone can watch TV, like becoming the king of Russia. Therefore, the conclusion is that the highest virtue is to act without action, and desire to have no desires while the people remain simple. Long live the CCP! Let's see if you dare to wear the imperial robe or not. Of course, Smarterrr did not wear the imperial robe. He wrote books and had other workers serve him, as depicted in the Qin Dynasty classic “Lüshi Chunqiu”. Smarterrr can write that book just by himself. Now, in this era, let us become Communist Party members and seize political power through armed struggle together by Smarterrr order.
Who wins the hearts of the whole people, who gains the whole world. The scales are in the hearts of the people, and right and wrong are independent of the specific timeline circumstances.

ChatGPT:
In the original sentence “想要在人民前面领导，就应该站在后面，让其他人先走” (“To lead in front of the people, one should stand behind and let others go first”), the subject is “one,” which refers to an individual person. This means that the sentence is instructing one person to stand behind and let others go first if they want to lead in front of the people.
If you want to refer to multiple people, you could rephrase the sentence to something like: “If two people want to lead in front of the people, they should stand behind and let others go first.” This version of the sentence is instructing two people to stand behind and let others go first if they want to lead in front of the people.
User:
If all people want to lead in front of the people, they should stand behind and let no one go first.
ChatGPT:
The sentence “If all people want to lead in front of the people, they should stand behind and let no one go first” is grammatically correct but it contradicts itself.
In the first part of the sentence, it says that “all people want to lead in front of the people,” which means that everyone wants to be at the front. However, in the second part of the sentence, it says “they should stand behind and let no one go first,” which means that no one is going first and everyone is standing behind.
This creates a logical inconsistency in the sentence. If everyone wants to lead in front, then no one can stand behind and let no one go first, because everyone wants to go first. Therefore, the sentence should be rephrased to remove the contradiction.
A possible alternative sentence with a similar meaning could be: “If everyone wants to lead, they should take turns and allow each other to go first, rather than all trying to go first at the same time.”

The character '聖' in traditional Chinese characters consists of two parts, with 'ear' and 'mouth' on the top and 'king' on the bottom. Simplified Chinese characters changed to '圣', it is divided into two parts as well, with 'again' on top and 'ground' on the bottom. This fully recognizes the leading role of the working class and the vast laboring masses as the masters of the country, as they become the leaders of the state and join other laboring masses in this position. It is essential to adhere unwaveringly to the guidance of the working class, as stated.
Simplified Chinese Hieroglyph word 'shut up' but meaning 'listen'. It is emphasized that work unions must consciously accept the leadership of the Party, as Mao Zedong pointed out that the Communist Party of China is the core leadership of the entire Chinese people. Without such a core, the socialist cause cannot proceed smoothly. Deng Xiaoping also stated that the work of unions is part of the overall work of the Party, and that work unions must consciously accept the leadership of the Party and carry out their work in accordance with the overall work of the Party. Jiang Zemin emphasized that all levels of work union organizations should always adhere to the leadership of the Party, maintain a high degree of ideological and political consistency with the Party Central Committee, and carry out their work closely around the overall work of the Party and the country. General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that the key to the success of the Party's mass work lies in the leadership of the Party, and that Party committees at all levels must strengthen and improve their leadership of the Party's mass work from the perspective of the overall work of the Party and the country.
We must deeply study and implement General Secretary Xi Jinping's important remarks on the working class and whole union work from the perspectives of “what it is,” “why,” “what to do,” and “how to do it,” and promote the high-quality development of the labor movement and whole union work.
This is what is referred to as the contemporary “saint.” As for the alteration of the simplified characters, I do not understand who made the changes, but I believe that the person who changed the characters must have had an immense hatred for the court and took advantage of the fact that the court could not understand Chinese characters.
