Old Country but Its Name is New (5)

I actually do not know much about communism.

Let’s talk honestly. Among 21st century good Republic of Korea citizens how many people know well about communism? What on earth must do to live knowing about communism? But what is different between communism and socialism?

- The socialists’ final goal was building a communist state. Stupid guy.

Oh?

My goodness. How long since I heard advice-like advice from this jar ghost. As expected from a red country origin the depth about redism is quite deep.

- Heung. What to do? The son of heaven who seized the Central Plains newly promulgating the calendar and weights and measures and deciding the learning to rule the country is literally the authority heaven gave. So called the mandate of heaven.

Aha. Since the red son of heaven Emperor Maomao brought out communism instead of Neo-Confucianism or Yangming learning the mere king water snake had to quietly study the new learning this.

But... you, did not know Neo-Confucianism well either?

- I am not taking the civil service exam why study the classics? I am not a person but a dragon?

Wow fuck. Coming out so confidently nothing to say. Right. Indeed the dragon king sitting upright and slightly bending the waist saying Confucius said Mencius said is also funny.

The reason I suddenly ponder about communism and socialism without even a fate.

Well of course... because it became noisy.

“Representative Lee, perhaps... red?”

“No.”

“The reason setting up a factory in Birmingham full of radicals perhaps!”

“No.”

“Representative Lee’s martial arts is the martial arts of hypocrisy.”

“!”

“Because Representative Lee stayed long in the East and studied Eastern philosophy non-Christian Eastern absolutism should be soaked in management, but the management in Birmingham claims based on typical Christian spirit. How about confessing now that you harbor more favor toward Eastern absolutism?”

“Not a crazy bastard this. Get out.”

“This hypocrite! Truly is Jesus Christ seated in your heart!”

“As expected! The incarnation of reason and rationality Arthur Lee learned from the East has Jesus or whatever not even in mind!”

“Ally!! Cease fire!!”

“Representative Lee is a communist demonic person no matter who sees! Everyone come out, demonic cult manse!!”

“Arthur Lee! Accept the dark side! Power! Unlimited power!!”

“Th... fuck... why doing this to me really. I will put on a noble title now! Get out! All get out these bastards!!”

Even in the 21st century where ideological conflict ended seeing the collapse of the Soviet Union color theory did not die.

Then the 19th century where the Soviet Union has not even appeared yet.

An era everyone is seeing the bare face of capitalism.

Even almost all countries of Europe are under the rule of monarchs, and feudalism worse than that capitalism is reigning as the dominant ideology of almost most of the world now?

Right.

If learned history as alternate history novels like <​Black-haired American Generalissimo> might forget, but now is not 1964 but 1864.

That is, the world is not a cold war era fighting with capitalism and communism.

Liberalism and capitalism are fighting with absolutism the hegemony tightly holding almost most of the world.

Communism the <​Communist Manifesto> was published but the most terrifying brainwashing weapon <​Das Kapital> has not appeared yet. Mere a new chick that just left the egg! In martial arts terms the prequel era where Bodhidharma just brought the true scriptures of muscle changing and marrow washing and Zhang Sanfeng must ponder whether exists or not.

- Why the metaphor so detailed...

Because such an era.

An era where there is a person above a person is natural.

Liberalism or capitalism to oppose this is an era stacking the corpses of countless poor and miserable scenes like a bone tower under the chimney of industrialization.

No way intellectuals who ate some ink living in this miserable era said nothing.

Socialism and Marxism are to the end the ideologies that stood out the most. Like cannot call all black path martial world the demonic cult just because the heavenly demon and demonic cult are the most famous the same principle. Right now even the furry is fighting with those socialists saying those are childish utopian socialists I am scientific socialist.

But why are countless people paying attention to this seat?

- Because you acted up the most?

Will not deny.

How can a person be so excellent.

How can a person who became Robinson Crusoe on the opposite side of the Earth losing parents early become the world’s best Orientalist and Joseon’s savior and great diplomat and philosopher and successful entrepreneur and inventor.

- Why omitting excellent sycophant?

Because that is undermining the Conservative Party would do.

Sycophant. A loyal subject does not serve two masters, I to the end only serve Her Majesty the Queen with loyal heart. Receiving Her Majesty’s will is the natural duty of a subject?

- Really first time seeing a sycophant like you. Must be comparable to Li Linfu.

Go away a bit. Then must I really switch to a red and strive for Britain’s reddening? This is all social life social life.

As you see, I am now suffering from completely different undermining from both sides.

Even Marx the founder of the demonic cult certified I am not a red, but Marx who has not yet written <​Das Kapital> and ascended as the head of all demonic people was a bit lacking in name value. So some foolish reds laid out the absurd claim that I am a demonic cult member.

‘Look! That overwhelming welfare!’

‘Arthur Lee actively reflects the opinions of workers and employees in management. How shocking a thing is this?’

‘He is not a giver. In his company workers are together with him.’

‘Employees share the company’s performance. If this is not socialism what on earth must call socialism?’

Why thinking me a fellow, these stupid guys. Did you change your eyeballs to glass eyes?

Fortunately not all reds had knot holes for eyeballs.

‘Those ignorant not even knowing that is the ultimate exploitation.’

‘The communist paradise can be seized only when the destruction of the capitalist class arrives! And that destruction must be done by the workers’ hands!’

‘If falling for that crude and mean appeasement policy workers will forever remain parts subordinate to capitalists. Workers must not become beings picking up dog gum. They must seize!’

‘From the beginning can assert Arthur Lee’s company will be permanent? Ultimately will not be eliminated unable to win market competition?’

Right.

Rather curse more.

For you guys being cursed as the enemy of the people and workers rather than hearing nakama sound helps my reputation more.

However the stories coming from the other side not reds were a bit embarrassing.

‘Arthur Lee is close to an absolute monarch not a capitalist.’

‘As expected he was deeply influenced by Eastern philosophy. Unlike the British constitutional monarch in the East the monarch owns all things in the world. They put countless women in the harem and hold them and make all men eunuchs to prove that bloated power.’

‘Arthur Lee does not do rational transactions of giving salary to employees and receiving labor. He bestows extremely irrational favor, and what he expects from employees is also something extremely irrational. We know well the term referring to such non-material, irrational elements. Precisely the word <​feudal>.’

Poking like this without head or tail? These uncivilized 19th century guys now mounting me as a medieval person while tasting 21st century advanced modern culture? Want to die?

Cannot leave the guys playing such tricks on me alone. Like this the image of Eastern sorcerer or uncivilized person will stick. If a cartoon like <​Arthur Lee investing in stocks predicting the future with a crystal ball> circulates honestly I also get scratched a lot!

Could not just sit and suffer like this.

Whether the undermining that I am a socialist or the undermining that absolutist had to shake off all somehow.

***

I returned to a London club after a long time and shed tears streaming lamenting this reverse card.

Not just because unjust... but because had to meet someone.

“Representative Lee so, that management method all came from rational calculation?”

“Precisely right! Absolutely not something like making employees serfs like some feudal monarch, nor doing this possessed by a socialist ghost to cause a revolution. I am convinced. Although my mathematical knowledge is not excellent, this is clearly management doing calculating.”

John Stuart Mill.

The strongest economist of this era existing, and the great intellectual and opinion leader most respected in the British Empire. Furry? Still not written Das Kapital?

And quite many people forget, but Mill’s main workplace is precisely the East India Company. The highest executive of the East India Company who served a full 35 years. If I decide to meet climbing the string is nothing.

Originally Mill belonged to the moderate reform faction that must change this reality not ‘now is just good’, and coincidentally stories of running as a Liberal Party member next year were also coming out. Decided to change reality not only playing in the realm of learning or writing.

“Please. I am constantly being attacked, if the teacher leaves just one word I can lessen the burden a bit.”

“Heum. Calculation existed interesting. I still not completely no acquaintance with your late father, if can help such a young Liberal Party member good lessening the debt of the heart too.”

“Yes? I am not a Liberal Party member-”

“What? Still not? Playing with Lord Palmerston and Gladstone and still not a Liberal Party member?”

Ate some curses but vowed and vowed again will join the party soon. Now I must also join the party.

“But, if so confident how about writing a book or paper at all?”

“Haha. Planning to.”

“Representative Lee. I also know well Representative Lee is the best Orientalist, but political economy is another story. Rather if I help a bit-”

“If doing so of course a great honor! But I cannot take too much of the precious person’s time. Coincidentally I also received introduction of one promising student and was thinking of asking that friend a bit. If just slightly helping beside when bored not only me, but also a great help to that friend?”

“Not other person, Representative Lee who overturned the world before even twenty saying promising so expectation. Can introduce?”

“Of course.”

A few days later.

I introduced a smart university student who decided to receive a bit of labor as the price of sponsorship from some time ago to Mill.

“Alfred Marshall attending Cambridge. Studying mathematics and physics. Jo, very glad to meet the respected great scholar! If giving much guidance.”

“Nice to meet, student. A youth thirsting for learning always truly cool to see!”

A few hours later.

While having tea time together explaining how my 21st century style management is a more efficient and rational method, and diligently defending the two people’s questions and arguments and attacks.

Mill’s gaze gradually focused on Marshall rather than me.

And at some moment.

He opened the mouth.

“Alfred?”

“Yes, yep.”

“You.”

Before knowing Mill was smacking the lips.

“Perhaps no thought of studying economics?”

His face looked even more evil than the octopus professor seeing Peter Parker.
