[00:00.30]
[00:04.59]Because we take it for granted
因为我们现在认为什么都是理所当然的 [00:06.15]we tend to underestimate the extent to which our entire civilisation is based on the borrowing and lending of money
导致我们会低估整个文明对借贷制度的依赖程度 [00:12.26] [00:12.70]No, it doesn't literally make the world go round
它虽不是让地球转动的物理动力 [00:15.32]But it does make vast quantities of people, goods and services go around the world from Babylon to Bolivia
但是从古巴比伦到现代的玻利维亚，它让无数的人、货物、服务在世界上流转 [00:24.39]The puzzle is that the early moneylenders got so little thanks for their services
然而早期的放债人并没有因借贷服务而获得人们的感谢 [00:29.91]On the contrary, they were widely reviled as pariahs
相反 他们常常被贬低为贱民 [00:35.29]Why was that?
为什么会这样呢？ [00:48.50]Welcome to Northern Italy in the year 1200AD

在这块土地上，各个城邦之间争战不休 [01:04.29]a land where trust was in rather short supply
“信任”在这里是很少见的事情 [01:09.62]Among the many remnants of the defunct Roman Empire
罗马帝国留给后人许多财富中 [01:12.60]was a numerical system singularly ill-suited to complex mathematical calculation
留下来的数字体系是根本不适用的复杂计算体系 [01:18.29]let alone the needs of commerce
更不用说满足商业需求了
因为我们现在认为什么都是理所当然的 [00:06.15]we tend to underestimate the extent to which our entire civilisation is based on the borrowing and lending of money
导致我们会低估整个文明对借贷制度的依赖程度 [00:12.26] [00:12.70]No, it doesn't literally make the world go round
