Creating Value - Part 2
Last time we wrote about the early beginnings of our quest for creating new values. Today we'll continue further. If you haven't read the first part, please find it here:
ADSactly - Creating value Part 1
The ones creating new value were too often plundered and attacked by the armies and marauders. Their decision to fortify their homes gave way to towns slowly growing into existence. The safety was in numbers. This is also one of the reasons why we all stick together in the crypto world by the way. The more of us believe in crypto, the harder it will be to stop the revolution we are a part of.
The growth of towns opened a new direction for creating new values. The ones who did not join armies, did not find enough incentive in plundering and stealing from others and did not feel like spending their lives working the land for the masters, started to create items for others. Craftsmanship was born. Items of daily use, decorative items, sometimes both combined, were made and sold to everyone.

For the first time in history, it was up to a person to invest more time into work if he wanted to make more value for himself. The first entrepreneurs were born. People who decided for themselves and did not need to steal from anyone, plunder lands or work the land for another. It was a great turn that defined the future to some extent. However...
Large groups of people living in the same place and feeling safe made them think beyond the borders of their city, county or kingdom. Explorers started to travel and discover far-away lands. It was a dangerous and demanding task to be an explorer. However, it yields the creation of value for the ones who financed the expeditions.

Exchange of ideas, skills, herbs, items, followed by massive scale plunders and genocides were byproducts of human curiosity and fear of unknown. The drive to see what lies behind the next mountain, next plain, next river or vast oceans always led to a demise of weaker and more naive group of a fellow human in order to amass value. Up to this very day, soldiers are still being sent to foreign lands to fight imperialistic wars under false pretences. At the same time, it seems aggressor's corporations are making vast profits based on the misery of other people. Creating value, right?

The need for transport of all the goods from distant lands bred another caste of entrepreneurs. Merchants of those days took long voyages, bought goods at the source, paid the lowest price possible and brought everything back home. Selling the rare goods amassed vast profits for them. In those days trading was dangerous and it took serious time, courage and resolution to travel far and come back alive, so the profits were understandably high and deservingly so. They were creating new value, even if they didn't produce the goods.
What about today's merchants? :D
