Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Li Yao and Heilongjiang looked at each other and even he was deeply shocked by the "new game society" of the new federation a hundred years later: "So, in the current federal society, if you do not seriously participate in the "civilization" game, it is impossible to walk. Already?"

"It’s hard to do it, but if you accumulate a lot of contribution points and game time in the game, it is really cheap in the society. Except for those just mentioned, the biggest relationship with the people is the tax rate. Playing Civilization is tax deductible. of."

Ling Xiaole explained, "The Xingyao Federation is a high-tax-minded country. There is no way. The new federation has only just developed for a hundred years. There are still many planets in the seven worlds, all of which are in a state of blue roads, poor and white, and have to increase investment in infrastructure. Yes, the threat of the Imperial Expeditionary Force forced us to maintain an overpowered standing army. The annual military expenditure is astronomical.

"So, the life of the new federal people is far from being carefree. The basic tax rate will even hit more than 50% of the total income.

"However, generally no one really pays so much tax. Everyone can do various kinds of tasks in "Civilization" to reduce taxes. The better Civilization plays, the lower the tax rate; Every year, every region holds a variety of virtual competitions, and the champion can even be tax-free in full!"

Li Yao burst into a sigh: "Can you play a game to cut taxes?"

"Further repeat, we are not pure games, but 'full simulation, cloud data, big unified, Xinghai Guanglu aggregation platform', any decision made by anyone in "Civilization" can be regarded as His 'intellectual property' may be of great help to the advancement of the entire 'Xingyao civilization'!"

Ling Xiaole said very seriously, "Is it not very reasonable to use ‘Intellectual Property’ instead of money and hand it over to the country?”

Li Yao carefully pondered, it seems that this is really the truth.

In fact, as early as more than a hundred years ago, when he put forward the idea of ​​"using the "civilization" game to open the wise", he considered the issue of popular participation.

Because the higher the trueness of "Civilization", the farther it is from the meaning of the word "game", the variety of data, the brains and the brains are the operation and information processing of "burning the brain", which is not acceptable to the average player. .

It’s natural for the federation to force everyone to play a boring, extremely brain-burning game, but the amount of data collected does not reach a certain level, or only a small number of “deep players” are attracted, rather than each line. If the industry, men, women and children, the final output decision, there is no practical guiding significance.

This problem once caused Li Yao and others to entangle for a long time, until he left Tianyuan and went to the depths of the Dark Nebula, there was no good solution.

I did not expect that the new federal government only used the "high school entrance examination" and "deductible tax rate" two measures, it was completely solved, really... great!

Ling Xiaole smiled and said: "These are just some of the more practical benefits. The next is the most important ‘honor’, which is the citizenship of the Xingyao Federation.

"Federal and empire, as well as the civic contribution point system, can only become a true citizen and have the power to determine the future of the country if the contribution reaches a certain level.

"However, the 'civilian contribution point' of the real human empire needs to complete all kinds of difficult, dangerous and complicated tasks to earn, such as the unfamiliar and unhealthy planets hunting the beasts, seemingly 'fair' How can ordinary people do it?

"The federal government also has this type of mission. For example, as an 'advanced team', to explore an unknown resource planet, you can earn a lot of contributions, and even if the general public can not complete these dangerous tasks, you can also pass Civilization. A variety of tasks, accumulate contribution points, learn how to be a qualified 'citizen'!

"Yes, in the eyes of our federal people, the word 'citizen' is supreme, representing great glory and heavy responsibility, even more glorious than the words 'realist'!

"The two should know that since the collapse of the Xinghai Empire 10,000 years ago, there have been hundreds of civilizations in the broken star river. Many civilizations have adopted elections and even referendums to decide the future, but their endings are Very regrettable.

"It's not that the election is not good, but even if the election is inefficient, the real question is how to let the public understand that the little power that you have mastered is crucial to the entire civilization!

"The highest speaker of the federation is also elected, but we do not believe that any human being who has a life that determines the future of civilization is selfish. Untrained people are always short-sighted, and a large number of untrained people come together. , that is not only the eyes of the mouse, it is simply a group of people.

"This 'Utopia" means more than just ordinary people. Even if it is a self-cultivator, even if it is a good old man, it will be a rabble before it receives the corresponding political, economic, social and cultural training.

"The example here, I am not targeting anyone, but in the late period of the Xinghai Republic, under the control of the parliament controlled by countless self-cultivators, the demon of the "Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi" emerged, and he easily seized the parliament. Power, after being the supreme leader of the Xinghai Republic for a while, it can be seen that between the 'study' and the 'civil', it is not natural to be equal.

"I speak so directly, uncle, don't you mind?"

Li Yao coughed and didn’t speak. He was not convinced, but I understood that this is not the 'elite decision-making' system. The public is blind. Only the elite can decide the future of civilization. It makes sense. Ah, but what is the difference with the empire? I heard that in the real human empire, this kind of 'elite decision-making' system is adopted. It is not the emperor who has the final say, the nobility, the lord and the landlord in various places. There are Jin Danqiang, Yuan Ying Lao Ge and so on, and they all have a lot of weight!"

Ling Xiaole laughed: "There is nothing wrong with elite decision-making. Governing the country is essentially a technology. Of course, we are looking for experts.

“However, what kind of talent is called a true ‘expert’?

"I don't deny that there are many experts who rule the planet in the aristocrats, lords and landlords of the real human empire, but more people are just big fists, strong fighting power, good-natured battlefields, and some people are even worse. The best thing is the intrigue. The person who smiles and hides the knife is a nobleman because of his strong fighting ability. It does not mean that he will really manage the place. He may even be busy with cultivation. He is thinking about making his fist more. Bigger, I never thought about going to the most basic public affairs decision-making training.

"This kind of guy, let alone be a leader, even if it becomes the most common ‘citizen’, I see it enough.

"There is no way, the empire is like this, the weak meat is strong, the force is king, it seems advanced, but it is a group of steel barbarians equipped with starships and giant soldiers."

The dark night blue took a deep breath and had nothing to say.

Li Yao laughed: "The federation is different?"

"Of course not the same."

Ling Xiaole proudly said, "The federal people have been trained in public affairs since childhood. When they reach adulthood, they have basic citizenship, understand their choices and efforts, and are closely related to the future of the entire civilization! And finally people who can truly become citizens They all prove themselves in the game of "Civilization". They not only have a deep understanding of economic, political, cultural, military and other aspects, but are relatively rational, calm, and long-term, and are willing to invest a lot of time to contribute 'wisdom. Property', serving the public!

"The kind of 'citizens' are not high or low, and most of them are not true, but they are well-deserved 'social elites' and can represent the voices of all federal people to the greatest extent. The Supreme Speaker, the road to the future development of the Federation, is the best system we can think of.

"It has avoided a lot of civilizations in the past 10,000 years, letting a group of 'black people' choose leaders, picking up a straw bag that is ruined by gold and jade, and even an ambitious conspirators. Finally, everyone is going to the demise of the group; and Xinghaiguanglu The platform's ultra-high information transmission speed also reduces the consumption of the election itself to the limit!"

Ling Xiaole's tail swayed fiercely, and it was rubbed from Li Yao's nose several times, so that he couldn't help but want to sneeze.

"correct."

Li Yao licked his nose and asked, "One thing I just wanted to ask, is the federal media now transmitting the means of transmission, even to the extent that there are two different worlds? It is possible to complete the transmission and exchange in an instant. This 'network speed' is too scary. Even if our Firefly technology does not seem to do this, we can only complete the instantaneous data exchange in the same world. This 'big one' virtual platform that accommodates the seven worlds, with our technology, will collapse in minutes."

Ling Xiaole hesitated for a moment. Li Yao knew that she had received the above instructions through the ultra-microphone array attached to the eardrum. After three seconds, the above agreement was agreed. Ling Xiaole said: "It is no problem to tell the two, we originally There is no such technology, but a hundred years ago, when the new federation was not yet established, the 'old federation' had received a mysterious signal from the depths of the Xinghai."

"Oh?"

Li Yao sat up straight, and the signal that Ling Xiaole said was obviously calling himself to the ancient sacred world, and finally provoked the bundle of Meng Qixin and Long Yangjun.

Ling Xiaole continued: "Today, the content of the signal is irrelevant, but the magic of transmitting this signal is crucial.

“Federal scholars have spent decades researching this signal, and finally determined that it is a high-level information transmission means from the flood civilization. This kind of means like 'gravitational wave' can instantly cross the Xinghai and realize the information between the two worlds. Seamless.

"It is by relying on this bundle of 'salvation signals' that the federal information transmission technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, and finally established a "universal civilization" world!" (~^~)
