Chapter 164 The End of the Idealist
Xiaya pondered for a moment, as if organizing his words, then he said.
"Do you believe it.
In the future, people will create a non-human intelligent life, which is more powerful than human beings, can control the production of all large-scale machinery, and completely replace human labor.
It is even possible to create a sun, with a nearly unlimited source of energy. "
The breathing of several people stagnated slightly.
The limitations of the times made it impossible for them to imagine what it was like.
But just Shaar's understatement was enough to make them feel the shock.
"Create life, create the sun." Isabel whispered, "Isn't that something only God can do?"
"Never underestimate the potential of human beings." Xia said with a smile, "The progress of civilization is the process of human beings replacing gods."
Is the progress of civilization a process in which humans replace gods?
Xiaya was quite calm when he said this.
But these words have undoubtedly had a huge impact on Alicia and Isabel in this era when the authority of the gods has not completely dissipated.
Their hearts were agitated and could not be calmed down for a long time.
replace the gods
These are rebellious words even in this era, but they are so taken for granted in Shaar's mouth.
"But isn't this even worse?" Arthur frowned. "People are completely replaced by machines. Human beings themselves lose the meaning of existence, lose their jobs, and lose their source of life. It's even worse than the slave period."
Shaar shook his head, "You didn't think of that."
He looked into Arthur's eyes and said calmly.
"Capital cannot be both a producer and a consumer."
A flash of inspiration flashed in Arthur's head. Shaar's words were very simple, so he could understand the joints.
The basic mode of capital is to use large machinery to create a large number of cheap goods for sale, but if everyone loses their jobs and sources of livelihood, and things cannot be sold, there will be no basic business model.
While replacing workers, this non-human intelligent life is gradually erasing the existence of capital.
"And by then, there will inevitably be a group of people who know how to fight and stand up to change the upper-level rule and establish a brand new social structure."
Shaar looked at Arthur and said slowly.
"That would be the end of all idealists.
Unlimited energy and artificial intelligence provide powerful productivity enough to support all human beings.
At that time, people will no longer have the distinction between high and low, and the three major differences between laborers and farmers, urban and rural areas, mental labor and manual labor have been eliminated, and the principle of each according to his ability and distribution according to his needs will be adopted.
Everyone can do what they like according to their own preferences, or do nothing, or do some learning.
No one can step on anyone's head with their own power or wealth.
There is something to depend on for the old, support for the young, and treatment for the sick, and everyone has equal resources."
The office was silent for a while.
The world Char described was really beautiful.
It was so beautiful that the three of them felt that it was a utopia that only existed in fantasy.
But Arthur knew that according to the theory that Shaar said, if such non-human intelligent life and the ability to create the sun really appeared, it would be completely possible.
"However, the process of transforming into this will not be too beautiful."
At this time, Alicia spoke.
"Yes." Xia's eyes were deep, "Every era changes, there will be a group of people who are sacrificed by the era, and the transformation of capital to this stage is also the same.
The share of consumption will not decrease immediately, and a large number of people will become unemployed, and the situation in the country will become chaotic.
And some simple-minded countries may not want to hand over the capital of their means of production, so they will choose to fight for market share through war, and at the same time use war to consume excess productivity and unemployed people.
It will be a war more cruel than ever.
Just like this era.
There are also a group of victims in this era, that is, farmers who have lost their farmland due to the bankruptcy of the capital market.
Farmers have become workers, but there are no corresponding mature laws and regulations stipulating what wages should be paid by capital. The market economy tends to be involuntary, causing these workers to pay more labor than before, but they can only get meager, or even nothing. Salary to support the whole family.
Not only that, but compared to farming, the soot from factory chimneys and the toxic substances swayed pollute the air while polluting the bodies of those workers and their offspring, causing them to continue to degenerate.
Of course, before that, the aristocrats and the capital must also go through a war.
Everyone has their own identity and meaning of existence in their own era. "
Shaar looked at Arthur, "After listening to what I said, you can think about what your meaning is in this era.
In this way, you will no longer be confused about your future. "
Arthur nodded, lost in thought.
Alicia and Isabel also fell silent.
"Of course, there is the most important point." Shaar reminded.
"Productivity determines the relations of production, and the economic base determines the back of the superstructure. There is another sentence.
The superstructure reacts to the economic base, and the relations of production react to the productive forces.
These few you need to think with dialectical thinking.
Don't just think about productivity.
History is grand, but human society is also complex. Religious differences, language differences, and differences in people's individual thoughts are all factors that affect the course of history.
In the process of historical change, productivity is the foundation.
And the base means, you can't leave it, but you can't just look at it. "
Arthur nodded, but he didn't reply, he was still thinking.
The fate of this country, and tens of millions of people in this country, rests on his shoulders alone.
This is a very heavy responsibility, but he has already made a choice...
After a while, he raised his head, and there was a little more depth and firmness in his clear eyes.
"I see, teacher.
I think, I should know my future and what I should do in this era. "
Shaar raised his eyelids, but he didn't ask Arthur about the choice he made.
No matter what choice he made, Char respected it.
"Send me back, teacher." Arthur looked at Shaar, there was no confusion in his eyes at this moment, "The front line needs me, I want to finish the war in West France as soon as possible, and then focus on dealing with the south, this stupid It's time for the war to end."
Shaar smiled and nodded, then snapped his fingers lightly, and Arthur's body turned into countless petals and disappeared on the spot.
He was sent back to the original tent by Shaar.
"What did he decide?" Isabel asked from behind the desk.
"If the answer is not as you wish, will you choose to change his mind?" Xia Ya said.
Isabel turned back into a black cat and stepped on the desk with the office chair.
"He is the emperor. The fate of this country is in his hands. I am just a predecessor who helps with government affairs, not even the regent.
Since God chose him, there is a certain reason for it.
This country will inevitably prosper under his leadership.
It just might not meet some people's expectations. "
"Like the royal family." Alicia said with lowered eyes.
Isabel fell silent, her green eyes were particularly deep under the moonlight.
She is a very sensible person. If it is a personal choice, she may find a way to intervene to change all this.
However, she understands that what she may have to face is not an individual.
It is the torrent of history composed of tens of millions of people in Britannia, and even billions of people in this world.
All those who stand in the way of this torrent will eventually be swallowed by the raging tide.
"I have a way to lift your curse." Xia Ya said, "Do you want to come back?"
In fact, Xiaya has the ability when he obtains the fate of Merlin, because Merlin has half of the power of dreams, so he has certain abilities for this kind of dream-like curses.
But at that time, he was afraid of the power of Sleeping God, so he didn't want to scare the snake too much.
But it was different now. After the treasure of the Nibelungen, he probably understood the state of Sleep God.
He was obviously not as ruthless as his elder brother was able to divide his theocratic power. As a result of all the theocratic power being attributed to himself, he was unable to enter the present world.
Then, he can do something with peace of mind.
Isabel was silent for a moment and said, "A country cannot have two emperors, and I cannot stay in the palace for long.
When Arthur comes back, I will formally hand over the power, and I have cultivated a group of trustworthy confidants for him.
They can help him with certain government affairs.
When I'm done with this, I'll go back. "
"After that, what do you want to do?" Alicia asked.
A little confusion flashed in Isabel's eyes.
"I don't know, the first 20 years of my life seem to be preparing to be a good emperor.
Now suddenly I don't need to take on this responsibility, and I don't know what to do for a while. "
After a pause, she shrugged and said, "However, I think it's better than being an emperor."
"Do you hate being an emperor?" Xia asked with a smile.
"If being an emperor can be enjoyed every day, of course I like it." Isabel said.
"But if you are an emperor, you have to get up before dawn every day to deal with government affairs, and you have to spend your brains fighting with those politicians and nobles who are as smart as they are, and calculating the gains and losses.
Anyone can get tired of it when they can't give complete trust even to the closest people. "
She looked at Xia and teased, "Although I don't know what to do for now, but I gave you my sister, you should take me in for a while, right?"
"I'm going to build a school next." Xia Ya's eyes flickered, "If you really have nothing to do, how about coming to me to be a teacher?"
No matter how you say it, Isabel is also a student of Titania. With her magic attainments, it is more than enough to teach some magic novices.
"Being a teacher?" Isabel fell into deep thought.
