"What do you think when you look at them?" Richard asked. There was a hint of confusion in the clown's eyes. The food was quickly served, and the clown, who had been hungry for a long time, started to eat after asking Richard. Richard waited silently for him to finish his food, and then handed him a drink. "Thank you." Arthur said. "You're welcome, how about we start chatting now?" Richard said with a smile. "Okay." Arthur, who had nothing left, didn't feel that he had anything that could make him have any intention. "Look at your current life, you work hard every day, perform hard, and try to make the audience laugh, but in the end the audience is getting smaller and smaller, and eventually you go bankrupt. You can't even afford a meal. Why do you think this is? ?" Richard asked. "Why?" Arthur's eyes were very confused. "Then look at this place again. The environment is elegant, the decoration is luxurious, and everyone is well-dressed. If you take out anything here, you can feed the homeless people outside for a month. Then why are they so rich?"
"I don't know." Arthur's hand on the armrest was held tightly. "It's very simple, the distribution of benefits is unfair!" Richard said. “All the resources of a society are gathered at the top of the pyramid by a small group of people through various means, either illegally or legally, while the vast number of working people at the bottom of the pyramid only have some scraps to eat, and they naturally don’t have enough to eat. ” “When a person works hard but cannot even fill his basic needs, someone must have robbed him of the fruits of his labor.” "When a person works hard and works hard but can't even support his family, then this society is unfair!" When Arthur heard Richard's words, his eyes brightened and he looked at him expectantly. "So what caused this situation?" "It's like your circus went bankrupt because you didn't perform well?" "No, then why doesn't anyone come to see it?" "It's simple, no money. Why no money? Because they have no job and no income." "Then why are they without jobs? Where does the money go?" A series of words made Arthur seem to have found the truth, but also seemed to have found nothing. "Look at this city!" "Ninety percent of various technology companies such as restaurants, hotels, hospitals, supermarkets, transportation, clothing, real estate, and tap water are controlled by Wayne Group, and even the remaining ones are not the same as The Wayne Group is inextricably linked.” "These companies have a firm control over the entire Gotham. Your food, clothing, housing, and transportation all depend on them. Every dollar and every coin in your hands will eventually fall into their hands. In the end, it will be concentrated in their hands, and you will eventually What did you get?" "Nothing!" "It can be said that you have nothing but air!" "You work hard for them and create value for them, but you only have a meager or even pitiful income." "Isn't this fair?"
"No fair!" Arthur suddenly raised his head and said. "This is not fair! We work hard and end up with nothing, but they are sitting back and enjoying the gains! This is not fair!" Richard said with a smile: "Now you understand why. The rules of Gotham are like this. If you want to change, you can only change the rules of Gotham completely, otherwise everything will always be a luxury." "Want to know the answer to how to solve it?" "How to solve it?" Arthur looked at Richard expectantly. As Richard spoke, he picked up a set of old books and handed them to him: "Someone had already proposed a solution more than two hundred years ago, and more than thirty years ago, some countries had begun to solve this problem. These The book has the answers you need." "You can go back and take a look. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me." With that, Richard gave Arthur a wallet and an address, and then stood up and left. Richard left the restaurant and watched the clown leave with a thoughtful look on his face. He was looking forward to what such a clown could bring to Gotham. He was not worried about the clown discovering all this. In fact, everything Richard said was true. In the past few days, Richard has learned about the entire Gotham City. The reason why the entire city is in its current state is a matter of profit distribution. The people at the bottom work hard but don't have enough to eat, the people at the upper class are extravagant and corrupt, and the entire city's economy is controlled by the Wayne Group. Even the toilets and prisons have shares in the Wayne Group. The entire city is controlled by Wayne Group, but what did they do with the huge profits? Maybe they went to charity, maybe they donated to an orphanage named after Batman, but they didn't think about improving the lives of ordinary people. In fact, Wayne Group has become a de facto government, but it has not assumed the obligations of the government. There are no public facilities, public transportation, various medical insurances, and social security in the city, let alone minimum living allowances, public rental housing, etc. Even government office funds require donations from the Wayne Group. Such a group is infinitely close to being a finalist. Batman is very rich, and the money is the legitimate proceeds of the Wayne Group, but it is undeniable that he is the squeezer of the entire Gotham City. This is what Richard was referring to when he said Gotham is hopeless. Batman sticks to his bottom line, but doesn't know that his bottom line can't save Gotham. In the next two days, Richard gave the Joker a few more lessons. He didn't tell him any profound questions, but just answered some questions for him. After reading these books carefully, the Joker has been completely transformed. He is no longer confused, decadent, or crazy. He wants to save himself, save his family, and save Gotham. Richard was very pleased to see the high-spirited Joker, so he took out a bottle of dragon blood potion and upgraded the Joker's body. After using the dragon blood potion, the Joker's physical fitness has been greatly improved. Of course, the Joker's most powerful thing is his brain. The improvement of physical fitness only improves his bottom line and his upper limit, allowing him to have more choices. After Richard's comprehensive strengthening and improvement, the Joker is completely different from before. He is now looking forward to how much surprise this Joker will bring to Batman. After comprehensively strengthening the Joker, Richard left here and prepared to continue to keep the appointment. He and Batman have made three appointments, and this is the second time. Next, he is going to give Batman a surprise. In three days, the bat armor that was specifically strengthened to target Richard's strength was completed. Batman Bruce Wayne was full of confidence. This time, he not only strengthened the armor's melee combat capability, but also its mental protection capability, and vowed to avenge his previous shame.
