I have to say that Gordon is still a bit talented in language. During the years he fought in China, he had a certain level of Chinese. During this period, he stepped up his attack and was able to communicate with the little emperor normally.

No matter how skillful the foreigners speak Chinese, they have a strange accent, because Chinese has a unique tone, which is the four tones mentioned in modern languages, which is not something that all Europeans do not know.

Listening to Gordon's Chinese language, which was not 4 or 6, the big four and the others always wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to, and their faces turned red.

Zai Chun gave a few servants a blank look and then smiled and said to Gordon, "I'm asking you to come here mainly because I want to ask something. I hope you will give me some advice!"

"I dare not, I dare not! Where is your Majesty's words..." Gordon was so excited that he owed his butt and kept bowing.

"Sit down, sit down, you are my trusted confidant. Just treat me as a friend. Don't learn from those servants, okay..."

Zaichun is still quite good at bribing people's hearts. He knows how to control the inferior and prescribes the right medicine. If he interacts with Europeans like Gordon, he cannot use the Qing Dynasty's style of slaves.

Gordon was indeed excited and his loyalty was beyond words!

"My dear... I have always had a question to ask you... Many European newspapers and books always mention the word capitalism. What does it mean?"

As soon as the question arose, Gordon's face froze. He looked at Emperor Tongzhi for a long time and didn't know how to speak, but the emperor's question could not be answered!

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Why do you read the newspapers and documents of those socialists? Tell you the truth... You should try not to always say this word, it is very taboo!"

Gordon thought about it and still felt that he should tell the truth to Master Long live.

"Your Majesty, you have no problem with talking about capital or capitalists, but the word capitalism is a very annoying word in European politics!"

"It's not that there is something wrong with the meaning of the word, but the people who always talk about this word hate it... they are all a group of anti-government socialists!"

"Bronge and others who are making a furious battle in Paris are socialists. They shout this word all day long to brainwash the people and spread hatred back and forth..."

"Look at it, Paris will sooner or later be in chaos, and it will be in the hands of these people!"

After all, Gordon sat on the side of the ruler. Whether it was Britain or the Qing Dynasty, he was a guest of the rulers. His thinking and interests were of course consistent with the government.

Such people hate the socialist party members very much because these socialist party members have always teased the conflict between the lower class and the upper class elite.

Of course, Gordon would not look at these contradictions from a historical high point. He is just a vested person in it to analyze the current situation.

Zai Chun smiled, "There are no outsiders here, I just want to ask these knowledge I don't understand. My dear, please rest assured that I will not talk nonsense in diplomatic occasions!"

Gordon then felt relieved, "If someone asked me, I would probably not say anything, but Your Majesty loves me very much. Of course, I can't hide my own secrets..."

"I do not agree with or seriously oppose the concept of capitalism mentioned by the socialists, but if your Majesty wants to know the truth, I can also simply say it..."

"In their consciousness, the so-called capitalism is actually the state's principle of capital! Capital is above all people and things, capital is protected by the state machine, and capital in turn rules the country and people!"

"In their eyes, capital is sinful, and all social contradictions are caused by capitalism! For example, the gap between the rich and the poor! War! Poverty, disease!"

"In their eyes, capital is born bloodthirsty, and it is to squeeze the blood and sweat of the people!"

When Zai Chun heard this, his eyes lit up, "Isn't this the case? Isn't the wealth of capitalists created by workers?"

"Nonsense! Your Majesty, don't listen to those nonsense!" Gordon stood up all of a sudden, "That's all the lies of the socialists!"

"How can workers create value? It is clearly capitalists creating value! Those workers should be grateful! It is capitalists who provide means of production, new technology, and jobs so that they can have food to eat!"

Gordon's face turned red with anger, "It's so slutty, these words are so slutty! Workers create wealth? Your Majesty, please think about it, was that factory built by workers? Didn't it be built by capitalists who invested a lot of money?"

"Whose wealth is the long-distance sea ship? Can workers and sailors afford it? It is because capitalists provide sea ships that they can participate in the ocean trade!"

"Who promotes technology? How could a new technology be born without a large amount of capitalists' investment? Even if new technology is born and there is no capitalist promotion and application, is it useless?"

"So, Your Majesty, don't believe the sweet words of those liars! How can they create wealth? Are they obviously borrowing everything? Without capital to create basic working conditions for them, where will they go to find employment!"

"How can we put the cart before the horse? How can we put the cart before the horse?"

Zai Chun didn't expect Gordon to be so excited. He quickly asked Xiao Sixi to give him a cup of tea. "Stay a break, my dear, don't be excited!"

From the perspective of people today, Gordon's remarks are of course riddled with holes, but at the end of the 19th century, Gordon and his remarks were the mainstream of society.

Why does the bearded man say that class contradictions are irreconcilable? Because from the most fundamental worldview, it is different!

Capitalists have their reasons, and you can make sense at first glance. Look at Gordon's remarks, which do represent the social reality of the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.

Once these principles come to Zaichun's ears, Zaichun will naturally accept them happily, because Zaichun is also one of the rulers, and he is the emperor above billions of people.

Of course, his worldview is similar to those of European rulers. He also looks down on untouchables. In the eyes of these people, the wealth of the world is only created by elites. It is enough for untouchables to learn to be grateful. How can they be resentful?

Zai Chun said, "My dear words are still very reasonable. Untouchables should learn to be grateful. If we didn't give them a bowl of rice, these people would have starved to death sooner or later!"

"Yes! Long live to think so!"

Zai Chun looked at him with a smile, "Then I have another question. Since capitalists dominate Europe, then, who will manage money...especially gold...?"

"I'll make it clear, who issuing the currency? Who manages the pricing power of gold?"

Hiss... Gordon gasped "This... Your Majesty, why are you asking about this?"
