Chapter 824: The Land of Decline
Although Tianhai is located in a prosperous eastern city, there are still barren and poor places like old alleys in this prosperous city.
Of course, not all poor people live in one place, and there are still some poor villages around Tianhai's striking prosperity.
It's just that no one pays attention to this materialistic world anymore, people prefer to see the thriving side, and the country prefers to report on the thriving side, so some of the old ones are less and less difficult to remember.
Just like this village in Tianhai, although it is not remote, but it is almost isolated from the world, often no one accompanies it, here are basically the elderly, and there are some sick old people, although some diseases are not contagious, but they are still reluctant to go out, and would rather choose to grow old here slowly.
The children of these old people have already left the place where they were born and raised, because it is too easy to be forgotten, and those who stay can only be eliminated by society, and then live for a long time.
I don't know when it began, but it was as if it had been abandoned by people naturally, and basically no one entered the village, and no one left the village.
There is only a group of lonely elderly people left in the village, although they are next to the bustling city, but they have not yet been exposed to any high-tech things.
They don't know what AI is, they don't understand the smart products that three-year-old children in the city are playing with now, and the people who listen to the radio in this village are already very advanced.
Those who have been here will realize that the cruelty of human society is much higher than that of the animal world, and that there is at least one more process in the evolution of animals, and the elimination is not so fast.
The elimination of human society is completely different, and the elimination of human society is likely to be instantaneous.
Thinking about the long history of mankind, isn't the last few decades a blink of an eye, but just such a blink of an eye, how many people have been eliminated by this world.
Feng Xun didn't expect that he would still be able to see this kind of eliminated place around Tianhai, and the bastards like Huang Hua are really good at finding a place to hide.
But seeing this place that has been eliminated by society, Feng Xun's heart will inexplicably feel some loss.
The world is always changing, and if you don't take the initiative to change, you will eventually be eliminated by the world.
I don't know when this sentence was proposed, but it really makes sense, since the reform and opening up to today, how many people have made changes and become masters, and those who stick to the rules?
I don't know when it started, the fire machine replaced the match, the digital camera replaced the film, WeChat lost the Unicom Mobile and Telecom they countless SMS fees, Alipay directly replaced the RMB, that is, a year or two of hard work to do it, if it were not for the support of the "country" Lao Tzu, it would be difficult for every bank to close its doors and sing "cool"......
To put it bluntly, it's not who takes away whose business, it's that humans are always exposed to new things.
Now in the era of 5G, there are still people who are still using 2G.
Whether it's for money-saving purposes or for some other purpose, these people are on the verge of being eliminated.
People who are slow to react to new things are one of the most likely groups to be eliminated.
The birth of any new thing is linked to a huge business opportunity. The birth of any new thing comes quietly in a sea of opposition, suspicion and rejection.
Today's new things in the rapidly changing new century must be related to trends, and trends are not seen with eyes, but judged with eyes.
Whoever catches the trend will seize the future. If you don't study, you will take inferences as conclusions, judge the future with what you know, turn a blind eye to new things, and eventually be eliminated by society.
What kind of thoughts, what kind of life. How can people with backward concepts and outdated knowledge not be eliminated?
People who have entered old age do not accept new things.
If you don't want to accept new things at a young age, wouldn't you take the initiative to step into the eliminated team?
It's like the old people in this village, they are eliminated, they admit that they are eliminated, but no one is young and willing to be eliminated with them.
Because they were eliminated, they also welcomed these people who hid in the village.
These old people are even willing to help these people who look like lawbreakers guarding the door, and are willing to help them hide.
The reason is simple, they will bring these elderly people delicious instant noodles, as well as all kinds of instant food products that they have not seen before, which they can't eat on a daily basis.
There are also those red, green, and green plastic bottles of drinking water, which have not been drunk by these old people who have been eliminated.
Just a little bit of stuff completely bought them off.
For a small sum of money, Huang Hua bought off all the old people in the village, and these old people became his most loyal caretakers.
Feng Xun followed Huang Hua's convoy all the way into the village.
The village is quiet late at night, and the silence gives a sense of foreboding.
When the convoy entered the village, it completely disappeared, and there was no sound at all, so that even Feng Xun did not dare to sneak in easily.
The silence lasted for half an hour.
Perhaps it was the people who entered the village who made sure that they were safe, and there was finally a sound in the village, and the lonely old people gathered in the center of the village without knowing where they had come.
They don't know what they're facing, they just know that the boss is here again, whether they need their help moving things, or if they don't need to do anything, the boss will give them some food that they can't eat on a daily basis.
For these old people, this is the best reward.
Even if they didn't know what time it was at night, they would still come to the center of the village half an hour after the convoy came in.
It's the rule.
It is the rules set by the boss for them, only those who abide by the rules can get the corresponding benefits, and only those who abide by the rules can become the boss's alms.
As people who have been eliminated by society, they don't care what alms are, getting something for nothing is the best reward in their hearts, and getting something for nothing is a way of life that they crave the most.
Otherwise, they will not be eliminated, and there are only this kind of people who can be eliminated in such a developed city.
When all the goods were removed, the village fell silent again.
However, when Huang Hua's people opened the box and inspected the goods, they found that they had been shabu-shabu, and they were slammed fiercely!
This box is not his batch of goods at all, but a pile of scrap copper and rotten garbage, he spent so much energy and time to carry out the action tonight and got a box of garbage!
Damn it!
