Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 442 Small County

How to change a stable low-level civilization? This is an important research topic for advanced interstellar civilizations. These things are all sociological reports given by "black", and their reliability is relatively high.

"What is the use of such research...?" Yu Yifeng once had such doubts in his heart, but he soon stopped laughing.

His doubts are simply ridiculous. All knowledge must be useful, but he doesn't know when it will be used.

The sociology of the universe is of course a very important subject. It can be used to enlighten oneself or to deduce the ideologies of other civilizations that have never had contact with civilization...

And... just because of the word "interesting" is enough to make it worth studying these issues.

So, how to transform?

Yu Yifeng racked his brains and couldn't think of any particularly good way.

Is it possible to let a new human civilization appear, crush it all the way militarily, and then secretly leave a glimmer of hope to force them to develop nuclear fusion?

This makes no sense and cannot change the rotten nature. Does the advancement of technology all the way require continued oppression for survival?

"Of course not." Yu Yifeng shook his head.

The sublimation of interstellar civilization involves not only science, but also all aspects such as morality, philosophy, and social systems. Simply and crudely forcing it with external force will only cultivate a "sinker civilization" with relatively advanced technology, the lowest level of interstellar civilization.

"Otherwise it wouldn't be a big problem."

There is absolutely no shortage of interstellar civilizations in the universe that are full of Virgin Hearts. They sympathize with the fate of lower-level civilizations and want to promote them... But the starry sky is still dim, which shows how difficult this subject is.

Recalling the experiences of the new human civilization along the way, Yu Yifeng had to lament the methods of this "master behind the scenes".

If "it" really exists, its methods are so sophisticated that it is really difficult for humans to imagine.

Of course, the ability of new humans to become an interstellar civilization depends not only on a series of external events, but also on various internal unity, a series of ideological changes, etc. These are all internal factors and are indispensable.

"In the final analysis, it is not a problem of energy, but a problem of forward momentum... The most difficult thing to change is the human heart. We have no way to control the thinking of a civilization..."

While thinking about it, the spacecraft began to enter the atmosphere and made a faint whistling sound. His body sank slightly, and his thoughts were interrupted by a feeling of weightlessness several times greater than when the elevator descended.

In half an hour, the spacecraft landed smoothly at the Antarctic base, and all the passengers stepped off the spacecraft one by one. Yu Yifeng also moved his body and jumped on the ice.

They have long been injected with relevant immune drugs, and they need to adapt to this base for a few days before they can officially come into contact with the microorganisms of "Chariot 2"...

Three days later, various investigation teams, accompanied by soldiers, finally landed on this land.

When Yu Yifeng stepped onto this beach, he smelled a faint smell of sea salt, which was salty and astringent, and also had a fishy smell of seafood.

This is a third-rate county town mainly focused on agriculture and fishery...

There is no geothermal energy or wind energy. There is a reservoir, which is mainly used to irrigate farmland, but the power generation is not large. The economic lifeline of the entire county is this large tract of farmland.

Due to the climate, various local villages also plant a small amount of an economic herb called "Ka Xing". This plant has a certain degree of mental addiction. The addiction level is equivalent to that of marijuana, and the take-out price is very high. .

Basically, all locals chew the leaves of "Ka Xing" in their spare time, which is similar to smoking.

Of course, this kind of "economic plant" cannot be grown by just any civilian. These things will harm the body and drain the spirit, but it is difficult to ban them all. The upper levels of the government simply gave some areas planting quotas, as long as the total does not exceed the quota.

Under this kind of administrative order, in order to protect their own interests, these rural black and white forces directly suppressed the cultivation of small people, which can be regarded as fighting fire with fire. "Card banks" have not spread on a large scale.

As night fell, a few dim lights lit up the streets and alleys, and a large group of indigenous people gathered together to enjoy a sumptuous dinner.

At least when it comes to food, they don't have to worry about it. It's much better than the ancient Earth.

After dinner, gambling, bragging, and in order to save electricity, many people gathered together. Some were still chewing "Ka Xing" dryly, looking very enjoying themselves.

It's strange that most of the people here are thin and there are relatively few fat people. Maybe it's caused by "stuck".

Yu Yifeng always has the idea that any civilization that takes drugs is scum. Just like the Qing Dynasty, some things are no worse than others, but they just can't beat others. Drug abuse is a very important factor.

How can a person have moral ideals if he cannot even control his own spiritual will? How can we talk about going to a higher level?

But these things are very important economic crops for the local area, accounting for 18% of the entire income. Moreover, after a total ban, there is no need to take the medicine anymore, and there must be a wave of demonstrations and resistance... and even revolution is not impossible. Therefore, various policies were strict and then relaxed, and finally became loose.

Yu Yifeng shook his head, he was too lazy to think about these nonsense...

For this kind of guy who can't help but take drugs, certain prevention and control measures will be implemented in the new human civilization. The first is drug treatment and physical isolation. If that doesn't work, a popular vote will be held in the court to decide whether to perform brain surgery and implant relevant chips.

After the treatment chip is implanted, taking drugs will naturally not bring pleasure.

After passing a corner, there was a large entertainment venue like an open-air bar, where many scantily clad men and women were gathering and writhing together. The sultry music was very loud, and what was playing on the big screen was a dance show by a certain movie star, which seemed to be quite popular among young people.

Further on, there is a square where many children in old clothes are playing with glass marbles. A few people are wearing wooden clogs on their feet and they are "clumping" as they run.

"Is this what a world without fossil energy would be like..." Yu Yifeng murmured. This is simply worse than the countryside at the beginning of the 21st century.

Behind him were his wife and two soldiers.

He was wearing imitation local clothes, a kind of woolen product, and he looked either rich or noble. In addition to the two burly men following behind, no one really dared to come up to chat with or provoke them. At most, they just looked at them from a distance.

"Without fossil energy, there will be no plastics, no synthetic fibers, no pesticides... not much electricity. Don't underestimate the dependence of lower civilizations on fossil energy." Yuriko said lightly: "Without fossil fuels, Going back to the wood era is a better option...and so it seems."

"Solar energy, plus biomass..."

She could vaguely read the thoughts of these indigenous men, but she didn't do that... Everyone knows what these people are thinking...

Yu Yifeng nodded and touched the wall of a house: "Look, this house does not use cement. Instead, it uses a bonding material made of mud and starch. It is very hard. It may be used in the countryside. All these cheap building materials, only big cities build high-rise buildings.”

The manufacture of reinforced concrete requires a lot of energy, which not every rural person can afford. This phenomenon is normal.

What a great experience.

In this world, the most prosperous area is comparable to a big city in the 21st century, and another area has turned into an ancient county. This huge gap between rich and poor was a bit exaggerated in the past.

But here, it is a common phenomenon...

"Handsome guy... do you want to eat? The last meatballs are on sale for cheap..." A thin woman with old clothes and some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes saw Yu Yifeng, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said hello.

But when she saw the beautiful female companion and bodyguard behind her, she suddenly stepped back. If you think about it, this kind of person who seems to be either rich or noble would not come here to eat food on the street, or maybe he is a young man from a big city who comes here to travel.

"We want these meatballs. Is there a place we can stay? Just a little cleaner." Yu Yifeng did not dislike it and asked directly in the indigenous language.

As the sky gets dark, they should also find a place to rest and experience the various aspects of life of the indigenous people.

"Ah? There are some, right here..." The woman understood his words and subconsciously wanted to give directions.

She suddenly thought of something again, and said with a smile: "Why don't you live in our house directly? It's very clean, the quilt has just been dried, and there are two free rooms. I don't know if it's enough... Is the price? It's cheap. A little better.”

As she spoke, she tidied up, revealing the cunning and capable nature of a country woman.

"Okay, you lead the way."

Yu Yifeng swallowed a mouthful of local unique meatballs, which had a strong fishy smell. He didn't know if it was the unique taste of the locals or if it was mixed with other seasonings, which made it difficult for him to swallow.

However, the two soldiers at the back were used to it and swallowed it without much chewing, saving themselves the trouble. Anyway, these are all starches and proteins, so they can be digested.
