"Steel Alchemist" Revelation
Writen by Allen Lee
No sacrifice (pay) is not available. If you want to get anything, you must pay the same price. This is the principle of equivalent exchange of alchemy.
The whole animation is based on this basic idea. However, when I first saw this principle, I am here: what is the "equivalent price"? Also how is it calculated?
From (political) economics, this "equivalent price" of goods is called "value". It is determined by the necessary labor time to create value, and it is also known as abstract labor. . However, this kind of society must not be actually calculated, and no one has changed it. In other words, we cannot accurately determine the true value of the calculated commodity. And the pricing of goods on the market, we call it price, just through the market's mechanism.
Obviously, in the world of alchemy, there should be a similar mechanism to determine what is "equivalent price", whether or otherwise, the equivalent exchange principle will return.
Inside the story, alchemy has two taboos:
First, it is forbidden to use alchemy. This is a good understanding, and it seems that the story inside the story does not want to see people to abuse alchemy and do not undue business and degradation. In addition, it is forbidden to use alchemy adults. This is also understood, and the "culturally" "refining" should be responsible from the mother through the regular rules of nature.
However, the cultivation of gold is only prohibited instead of impossible, and people who know how to alien alchemy can still sneak into the formation. And how people can not be realized. Why is that? Excluding all moral guidelines, I think people are more than just a stack of chemical elements, people are still expensive, and it is also because of this, alchemy's refining achievements are powerful. Can you think of emotional equivalents? It is meaningless to refine a body without a soul.
The expansion of "Economics's social necessary labor time cannot be actually calculated", I get it, value is not calculated by simple machinery, it is worthwhile to determine if a thing is worthwhile, it should not be from its surface. Revenue is measured.
Moreover, we should treat people as a recipient, not "insertion and compatibility programming device" [1]. Human resources should be the most important and most precious resources of the enterprise!
