Chapter 244
Following the ebbing of time, the successors of "Goer City" began to have a headache. A larger population has great benefits, but if management fails to keep up, it will become a hidden danger.
A random large-scale project, such as a diversion channel, or mining marble, to open up a larger underground living space, will last for a hundred or even five hundred years!
Even if the lifespan of the Gliese people is long and the work efficiency is not very good, these projects are really slow and too ridiculous, resulting in increasing dissatisfaction among the people.
But dissatisfaction means dissatisfaction. No matter how powerful the archon is, it is impossible to change this chaotic result.
The root cause is work and rest!
More and more Gliese people realize that Gando's idea of "planning and rest" is actually correct. But the opposition force is still strong, and many stubborn Gliese people believe that dormancy is their own freedom, and this freedom should not be deprived.
Since mandatory work and rest are not advisable, in order to solve the chaotic dormancy problem, the clever consul has come up with more "curve to save the country" methods, for example, certain art performances will be opened at a specific time. , The school will also start at a specific time to indirectly guide the public to sleep.
But this kind of guidance is really too slow and too slow. After thousands of years, it only has a preliminary effect.
This kind of chaos continued until another "Kahn" wise man was born, and his idea was similar to Gando: Gliese people were too lazy and too idle, and there was generally no pressure in life. Where did it come from? Upward momentum?
It believes that in the past, the ideas of the ruling high-level people and the common people were separated. For many people, science, including mathematics, is just a kind of elegant "art", and it has not been substantially converted into productivity at present. Even if you don’t go to school, it’s nothing at the worst, at least impossible to affect your life...
"Elegant art" such as science and mathematics, in the eyes of the governor, is a bright and white snow, and only a few smart people can Understand the beauty in it. And smart people are generally high-level.
But ordinary people are not interested in this type of "elegant art". They prefer popular arts such as drama, novels, singing and dancing, so it is basically impossible to change their work and rest by learning "elegant art".
Kahn is a descendant of a businessman, he is very sensitive to the economy by nature, and he knows what the life of ordinary people is like.
What do ordinary people like?
Money!
Face!
Beautiful opposite sex!
And...higher status!
It quickly promulgated a complete set of economic policies in an attempt to better promote commerce. In particular, it established some collectively-owned large handicraft factories. In these factories, they must go to work and leave at the same time.
At the same time, the opening policy of the market has been standardized. On certain days, there will be certain tax incentives.
People who follow a regular schedule will have more opportunities to obtain wealth; individuals who want to do as one pleases dormant, staggering collective activities, then have fewer opportunities to obtain wealth, so they slowly become Destitute and destitute.
Like human beings, Gliese people also yearn for a better life. If the sober period is completely staggered with the large forces, then life will undoubtedly be more troublesome.
Free sleep? No problem, as long as you can endure poverty.
Under the stimulus of this kind of economic interest, year after year, more and more Gliese people began to sleep together...
Unified work and rest The habit finally...
formed.
The whole process took nearly ten thousand years!
A serious country, even if it is only the size of the city, compared with the scattered tribes, whether it is the system or the size of the population, it has great advantages.
The host on the stage said powerfully: "In this brief moment, the idle Gliese civilization has finally ushered in its own period of rapid rise!"
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan always feels that the history of the entire civilization is very strange. The Gliese people of that period had an knowledge level equivalent to that of human civilization in the 18th to 19th centuries. They began to explore the threshold of chemistry and physics. Just found a country!
The question of unified dormancy, all kinds of over and over, took tens of thousands of years, and he simply didn't know what to say.
"To say that they are stupid is not stupid. To say that they are smart is definitely not smart."
"Hey, when we look at primordial humans, we are also stupid and uncivilized. "
After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, more Gliese people discovered that the primordial life, which was already more satisfying, actually has more room for improvement. For example, more exquisite food and more interesting entertainment methods. A more comfortable place to live and so on.
The primordial cave where they originally lived is easy to collapse. I don’t know how many Gliese people died because they were buried alive because of the cave collapse.
But now, the Underground City of Goertek has been planned by architects. It is reinforced with marble, which is comfortable and safe.
Moreover, after unifying work and rest, many group work is indeed much more convenient, especially some large-scale projects, which were unimaginable in the past.
If there is interest, there will be a driving force. After seeing the benefits, each country followed suit and appeared on the narrow residential belt.
It is not so much a country as a "city-state" gathered by a large number of people.
Naturally idle Gliese people have low reproductive capacity and do not like too much restraint. They generally adopt the "Democratic System" evolved from the primordial system. The citizens' assembly is the highest authority, leading People voted by the people to manage these city-states.
There is also a high degree of competition between city-states and city-states. Smart people will naturally know which city is good, which city is politically clear, has room for improvement, which city climate is more comfortable to live in, and which city is the art of art. Wait...
In this situation, the population will naturally migrate to better cities.
When there is competition, there is an upward motivation. One after another wise men appeared on this planet, began to improve the system and the law, and put forward a higher level of morality.
The scientists tried to reproduce the Divine Vestige brought by the "initiator", continuously exploring nature, mastering the laws, and trying to improve the productivity of the entire civilization...
It seems that the entire civilization It seems that it is flourishing, with a higher level of intelligence, and a qualified ideology. It should soon break through the atmosphere and get out of its own planet!
But unfortunately...
A fatal flaw has appeared!
The oxygen content of this planet is very low, almost none.
There is no oxidant, which means that there is no natural combustion phenomenon, no combustion, and the development of various industries is extremely difficult. The Gliese people can only control a small amount of simple natural resources such as wind and water power. For example, dig a wind tunnel, and then use wood fiber plants in it to make a windmill; make watermills near some underground rivers...
But these energy sources are always unstable and difficult to control. If they cannot really advance the times, they urgently need a more powerful energy source.
Fortunately, the Gliese people already know the existence of electricity, and they know that lightning in the sky can be used. With some enlightenment given by the "initiator", it is possible to jump directly from the stone age to the electricity age, even if......
this step is very, very difficult.
But it is a pity that this group of Gliese people have not taken this crucial step for a full 150,000 years.
Until...the second group of aliens comes...
