"Public, public, come and see, these untouchables, in danger of extinction, have come to us with their tails wagging their tails. โ€

"They repented, repented, and could only repent. โ€

"Great white people, do we want to save these untouchables?"

"No, no, no!"

In the square, someone was shouting loudly to make a notice, and the content was naturally like this.

Well, the White Emperor Secret Realm seems to have taken the beast sea crisis encountered by humans as a reason and benefit for them to maintain their rule.

Wang Jian seemed to have guessed this, but when he really saw it, he still had to sigh.

However, he was still somewhat glad that there were not many of them.

At most, 100,000 people, lack of equipment, how to fight, how to make trouble, and I have a spectrum in my heart.

However, you can't be reckless.

Stability is paramount.

Only the consequences of profiteering in the present and not the grain in the future will only lead to the Ding Wuqi famine.

Real stability is not to be immutable, but to be able to continue to improve oneself through learning, have a clear room for growth, have widely recognized one's own value, have human rights, financial rights, and affairs rights, have superiors who trust themselves, subordinates who trust themselves, have a certain influence in the industry they are in, and have extensive social relations in the city where they are located.

I like stability, but it's nothing more than a compromise with mediocrity.

There is always a need to reduce uncertainty, and stability is just one way to reduce uncertainty in the future. However, not everyone is unaware of uncertainty. Not most people like stability. Those who are well fed and well-fed seek stability, while those who are hungry and cold seek instability.

People's risk appetite is not the same in profit scenarios (frameworks) and loss scenarios (frameworks).

No one doesn't like stability. If you really don't like stability, can you survive alone in the wild in the tropical rainforest? Can you go to support Africa's construction? Is it good to work in Syria? I guarantee that you don't have the same every day, every day is thrilling, and every day is adventurous! Human beings are born with a sense of stability, and the so-called adventurous and exciting are just a kind of enjoyment after the need for stability is satisfied. It's like you may be willing to watch a horror movie, but you may not really want to live in a haunted house.

If a person loses his sense of stability, then death is not far away. There was once an experiment in which two dogs were tested, one dog was electrocuted at a fixed time every day, and the other dog was electrocuted completely randomly and disorderly, and it was possible to be shocked when eating, sleeping, and resting. As a result, the second dog went crazy within a few days. Changing jobs, starting a business, and going abroad are essentially going to an unknown environment, and the unknown itself is full of uncertainty. The reason why I want to do it is because I am not satisfied with the current state of the economy. But it's not true that you enjoy working in an uncertain environment.

If wages in state-owned enterprises were doubled, 80% fewer people would change jobs, and if they were doubled, basically no one would take any risks. Adventure is not a human need at all, human needs are to maximize profits, is the pursuit of stress-free, controllable stability, this is the nature! Adventure itself is called adventure when you are in danger, who naturally likes to take risks? If the owner thinks he likes to take risks, give you a suggestion, set a random alarm clock, and experience the feeling of being randomly woken up when you sleep at night. Do you think it's so easy to start a business, change jobs, go abroad? The feeling of waking you up in the middle of the night and tossing and turning is the norm. If you really enjoy this "adventurous state" of not sleeping well, then tell me that "stability" is not important.

The pursuit of stability is essentially the pursuit of certainty, because certainty brings certainty, which brings a sense of security, while uncertainty brings anxiety, so many people would rather choose less good certainty than choose uncertainty with infinite possibilities.

Our pursuit of stability stems from our fear of uncertainty, and because we are afraid of uncertainty, jobs with greater certainty can make us feel secure.

But this sense of security is a false sense of security, and his premise is that the current environment will not change, and any logical person should also know very well that this is impossible.

Why do most people like stability?

It's not that there is no ambition and no effort as mentioned earlier. In all fairness, although it is said that people seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, if they seek profits, who does not want to live a better life? Give up the possibility of living a better life and pin their hopes on stability. What does this mean?

This shows that the cost of working hard, having big ambitions, and realizing dreams is too high!\

Human beings have the natural tendency to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and if everyone is an adventurist in their genes, human beings may not be able to reproduce so far. But on the premise of excluding the more or less risk-taking personal differences, why are there still people who are willing to abandon the so-called "stable" life of ordinary people and add many variables to their own life? I think there are two reasons, one is that most people have a misunderstanding of the "stable" state, thinking that staying in their comfort zone is stability. The second is that most people are unable to objectively assess the risks they face if they give up a "stable" life, so they have created the illusion that they have been "avoiding harm".

Highly successful people usually step out of their comfort zone and reach their goals. The comfort zone is a state of mind that causes people to enter and maintain an unrealistic mental behavior, which can lead to an irrational sense of security. Similar to inertia, when a person has built a comfort zone around a certain part of his life, he will start to tend to stay in his comfort zone rather than go out of it. Stepping out of one's comfort zone, they must find new and different ways of acting in their new environment, while responding to the consequences of these new ways of acting.

People have different IQ and EQ, and those who can rely on their personal ability to get money and food and lay a foundation in the world only belong to a few elites, and most people are just ordinary people with mediocre abilities.

Generally speaking, anything that is hot will always get cooler over time. I have experienced a cruel workplace, emotional trauma, and life embarrassment. The blood cooled down little by little. The lofty prospects and grand undertakings that we originally hoped for were torn apart inch by inch by the ups and downs. There are many people, and they can't even find the stability that they originally looked down on. By the way, why don't we choose a stable life in the first place? It's like a pile of 100 phosphorus, which spontaneously combusts when it doesn't agree with each other, and it burns so much 2B that it can't be a "different fireworks".

The average person who goes abroad to take risks is either penniless or delusional in his desire to get rich, and he is ambitious and wants to make a name for himself in the world with an extraordinary career. But for me, it's neither worth it nor necessary. As far as my social status is concerned, it is exactly somewhere in between, which is generally called the middle status. Judging by his long experience, this is the best class in the world, and this middle position is also the happiest. They do not have to live without a living like the lower classes of the masses engaged in hard manual labor, nor do they have to be exhausted by arrogance, ambition, and mutual intriguing like the upper classes. He said, "I myself can learn from the fact that the life of the middle is indeed very happy, that is, that everyone envies this status, and many emperors lament the unfortunate consequences of their noble birth, and wish that they were born in the middle class between the poor and the noble." Wise people also prove that true happiness can be attained by those in the middle class.

"Children, children, continue to serve the great White Emperor, only he can give you peace, bring you warmth, bring you survival, one day in the future, the White Emperor will lead us back to our homeland, for us to win the land that belongs to you, praise, serve, long live the White Emperor!"

"Long live the White Emperor!"

Wang Jian looked at this extreme remark that existed in the 21st century, although he couldn't understand it, but where did the murderous words need to be understood?

In short, people are just not friendly.

In the distance, Long Yifei smiled skillfully and didn't care at all.

But the woman in the suit from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs jumped up for the first time: "Third Prince Bai, your behavior is a complete provocation, and we can't think that your regime wants to have friendly exchanges!"

Bai San was hippie and smiling, and said: "This is the religious activity carried out by our church, and you know, I like your words very much, religious freedom." โ€

"I'll make a formal representation. โ€

Bai San's face was depressed, but he said with a hippie smile: "The emperor is far away." โ€

Wang Jian looked at it disdainfully and didn't say anything.

Technological progress will flatten management and exclude the middle layer to make the difference. In this way, the instructions from above can be sent directly to the grassroots.

But the complexity of the system is not something that young people can understand.

Three people in a team, can be improvised, and discuss problems. It's clear who is a cow and who is a straw bale. But once the number of people increases, it will be troublesome. When there are many people, we can only set some simple and common rules for everyone to do the same, otherwise it will be chaotic.

Even if we use advanced equipment to manage the army and the country and carry out flat management, it is impossible to know what every citizen and soldier is doing. Even with the help of a backgrounder, the backgrounder is nothing more than a repetition of a simple set of actions and principles. This rule includes a whole set of fixed rules, including no murder and arson, etc. Then the assessment criteria are also the same.

What happens when these rules are broken on a large scale? It is the disintegration of the system. In other words, the management of complex systems can only be ordered within the scope of simple and feasible rules. While there may be occasional exceptions, they must not be overflowing.

And the emperor "does whatever he wants", which is essentially to increase the complexity of the rules and add more exceptions to the rules. Even if the master of micro-manipulation can directly give orders to soldiers due to technological progress, and even airdrop warrants, he will fail as soon as he micro-manipulation.

Not because his orders were not carried out, but because his orders undermined the simple feasibility of the rules. So the emperor had to fundamentally follow the rules, and if the emperor wanted to change the rules, he had to move slowly to keep the system running as smoothly as possible without collapsing.

It collapsed, and the emperor had no good fruit to eat. Therefore, the mechanism and bureaucracy for conveying information may be exempt, but the bureaucracy for dividing labor and making ideas is not exempt. In this way, imperial power is still constrained, ostensibly by the bureaucratic system, but in fact by the complex human social system.

It's like now that the emperor has said that he wants you to run a hundred laps around your house. What do you do?

The emperor is far away in the capital and hiding in the deep palace, and it is impossible for him to order you directly, because it is almost impossible for you to meet. So if he wants to command you, he must call someone to speak.

Now the question is, as an order-taker, how do you know if the emperor asked me to do it? Even if it was indeed the emperor who asked me to do it, how can you guarantee that I am not mistaken?

So the emperor could only write the words on a piece of paper and hand them to me, and let me deliver the note on my behalf. This is the Divine Decree. Then who can guarantee that this decree is genuine? How can you guarantee that I am not just looking for a piece of paper and pretending to be the emperor to issue an order? You see that there is a jade seal on the decree? That is the emperor's certificate.

But I haven't seen the jade seal? How do I know if you carved it casually with a radish? It doesn't matter, I don't know the emperor, I don't recognize the jade seal, but I know who our township elder is. I'm going to ask him?

Xiangxian didn't pay attention either, so he went to ask the county magistrate. The county magistrate has never seen what the seal of the jade seal looks like. He could only go to the officials of the state capital. It can be known that the county and the prefect may have only seen six large seals at most. They had no choice but to go to the envoy. The political envoy took out his appointment and dismissal decree in the past, and compared it with the jade seal, well, genuine!

You see, the emperor wants to ask someone to do something, and in order to prove that this is really the emperor's intention, he has to trouble a bunch of people, just to prove that he really gave this order.

The political envoy will not do it, and your emperor will issue a holy decree, every time I come like this, do I have time to do daily affairs? Although I don't necessarily know the emperor's jade seal, I do know the official seal of the cabinet because I have dealt with them a lot.

In the future, I will issue an order, please let the cabinet officials sign and testify at the back, and do not directly hand it over to that specific person, but pass it on through my hands, layer by layer, and I will hand over the appraisal to the following. The people below do not know the Emperor's seal, but they know my seal, and they can identify my seal. And so on.

lest specific people keep coming to me to ask me to verify whether it is true or false. The emperor thought about it, and he agreed. So the emperor's decree has a special channel to be issued, and the emperor and you find it very convenient.

But after a long time, the emperor realized that something was wrong again. The decree that he found was sent to the Cabinet, but the Cabinet refused to send it to him, and the seal was dismissed. The emperor was furious. It's not that we don't want to send it out, it's because the emperor's decree today is different from yesterday's, and it contradicts each other.

Our holy decree yesterday has already been issued, and today we will issue a different one, I am afraid...... It turns out that the emperor asked you to run 100 laps around your home every day yesterday, and today he wants you to run 200 laps a day.
