At the beginning of capitalism, a small number of people mastered the means of production, the origin of capitalism. Wealth is the only belief, there is no moral restraint, and there is no limit to it.

The ambitions that underpin the missionaries are only for wealth and power from beginning to end, God is only a true idol, and behind the glamorous brotherhood lies a hideous and ugly deal.
