Chapter 608: A World with Crooked Technology

The Celestial and Human Realm is like the Western World, this is not a casual remark by Gao Li, but a conclusion based on Aru's description of the Celestial and Human Realm. The history of the Heavenly and Human Realm is very long, about tens of thousands of years, but just like the human history of Gao Li's previous life, human beings have basically lived like beasts for tens of thousands of years since they appeared, and it has not developed greatly until the last few thousand years. In the last few hundred years, it has been a time of technological frenzy, where technicians have invented machines that can travel through time and space, and it is with that kind of machine that genius has come to this world. In the celestial and human realms, as in this world, there is industrial agriculture, social and financial development. After all, this world is almost transformed by the heavens and men according to their world, so basically the two are not much different.

"Wait, I have a question. Gao Li asked as he ate.

You ask. "Iru was very cooperative.

"Is there a big cultural difference between different countries in your world?" Gao Li asked.

"Very big. "For example, the border zone, which was originally a big country, and because it was in the middle of a continent, they called themselves the Middle Kingdom. However, because the Middle Kingdom does not have contact with the sea and is surrounded by other countries, their own development is very limited, and other countries around them can bully them at will, and the borders of the country shrink a lot almost every year. For the people of the Middle Kingdom, basically all foreign countries are enemy states. Because of this, the people of the Middle Kingdom will devote a lot of energy to this world after discovering this world. They wanted to make this world their new land, but unfortunately, as those who came to explore this side stayed here longer and longer, the rift between the two sides became more and more serious, and the people on this side did not want to go back and fight for the people of the Middle Kingdom anymore. ”

"So, the talents of the Middle Kingdom have been released into annihilation and want to force them to go back?" Gao Li asked.

"Of course it's impossible, they're not crazy, how can they cast annihilation on their own people? The Central Kingdom is at war with foreign countries, and those foreign countries are afraid of the combat power here, so they specially sent people to secretly hand over the casting method of annihilation to you monkey demons, and that's the result, the celestials and evil people here have been blown up. And the outer Middle Kingdom has also been defeated and turned into what it is today's 'frontier zone'. Airu said.

I see, to be honest, it's really surprising.

However, what really made Gao Li sigh was another thing.

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Gao Li sighed.

All the eyes around him were staring at Gao Li at the same time.

"What do you mean?" Ling Long asked.

"It means that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. Gao Li repeated with a smile, and then explained: "Our world is too weak, so weak that there is no way to decide your own destiny. The people of the Middle Kingdom intend to turn this place into their backyard and the life of this world into their people, which is the will of the heavenly people. And those enemies of the Middle Kingdom didn't want this to happen, so they brought annihilation, allowing the monkey demons of this world to launch annihilation, eliminating the celestial and evil people, although they indirectly gained freedom, but this was essentially under the control of the celestials. ”

"Further afield, the Middle Kingdom has been eroded for so many years, and even has to rely on that soaring machine to find a way out of this world. I have to say that the plan is very ambitious, but if they really have a way to confront foreign countries, they will not do such a time-consuming and energy-consuming thing. So, it boils down to a sentence. ”

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten. Ling Long said.

"That's not necessarily, look at Yanan, so backward, you didn't hit us. "It was Nguyen Suya who spoke, and she was grilling fish.

"Because I'm a good person, but you can't expect every strong person to be a good person. If I were a war maniac and not a businessman, and the first thing I did when I came to Yannan City was to conquer Yanan, what else could you do?" Gao Li asked.

"Surrender. Ruan Suya now understood what Gao Li's ability meant, and of course she also knew how difficult it was to fight Gao Li.

"So, if you fall behind, you will be beaten. For another example, don't talk about it far away, just say it just now. For example, if I am a wealthy person, is the emperor greedy? My skills, does the emperor want it? The emperor wants to beat me, but he doesn't dare, why? Because I'm strong enough that he doesn't dare to do anything to me easily, so we can maintain a superficial balance between us. Gao Li continued.

"It is difficult to produce real friendship between countries, there are so many resources in the world, if you want to occupy a little more, I want to have less, this is the so-called zero-sum game, if several countries can maintain a superficial balance, it means that they can both of them can grab benefits from other places, this is the transfer of contradictions. Once the two sides have a common goal, this friendship will be broken immediately, and if there is no weapon in hand that can determine the outcome of the battle, the final result can only be pressed to the ground and rubbed. ”

"So, is it the same between you and Yanan?" asked Ruan Suya.

Gao Li said: "At the current rate of development, it will not reach that point in about a few hundred years, because the rate of consumption of our resources has not yet reached that point." You can't guess how quickly our world can consume resources. Oh yes, the biggest advantage of this world is that it has true qi, and it's a waste of this thing to only use for fighting. If we really develop a more advanced usage in the future, we may be able to fundamentally solve the contradiction, after all, all the world's problems are energy problems. ”

Gao Li said, everyone listened, and each had their own opinions.

Eru went on to tell about the world, and the people around him listened, rebuilding it in their own way.

In the end, it was concluded that it was a world at the junction of civilization and wildness. There have been breakthroughs and leaps in the technology of that world in different directions, but the problem is that social civilization has not been improved with the leap of science and technology, on the contrary, the material life of that world is not very rich, and the spiritual life is even more pitiful, and the whole world is full of depression.

Gao Li asked for a lot of details, all of which proved this from different directions.

That's weird.

Usually, scientific and technological progress is accompanied by material progress. The abundance of materials will further promote the progress of science and technology, and the two are complementary to each other. But the celestial and human realms are already able to tear apart space, and according to Aru, even the middle class is just able to eat enough.

That's weird.

Gao Li pondered, Noroka handed Eru something and asked, "Do you want to eat?"

"I don't have digestive organs, and this mouth is actually an ornament, because I don't have lungs, and the vocalization is to vibrate the vocal cords with true qi, so I don't eat, thank you. Airu said.

Gao Li looked at Ling Long and asked, "Are you from the Middle Kingdom?"

Ling Long nodded and said, "It should be." ”

Gao Li said: "As a nobleman, you should have no worries about food and clothing." ”

Ling Long said: "It should be." ”

Gao Li said: "Can you recall any delicacies in the Heavenly and Human Realm?"

Ling Long shook his head and said, "All my memories of food come from this world, even in my last life, the peaches that the monkey demon gave me are extremely delicious. ”

So what kind of world is this? Could it really be a real punk world? Overdeveloped? Two capsules a day for a person? It doesn't sound like it.

"So, Aru, are you from the Middle Kingdom?" asked Gao Li.

"Of course I'm not, I'm a highlander, Gale Plateau, and our life is more miserable over there. Airu said.

This kind of thing is more weird, you clearly have high technology, but high technology has not brought a good life, technology is crooked? Or what's going on?

"Daughter-in-law, if that's the case, your sister's purpose is to return with a large army to fight with foreign countries. Gao Li said.

"It's a huge possibility. Ling Long nodded.

"Sister, who?" asked Chu Miaoyi, who was gnawing on the pig's trotters.

"It's my sister. Gao Li said with a smile.

"Eh, does this have to be kept secret?" Chu Miaoyi asked.

"It's going to be embarrassing if you know, so it's better not to know. Gao Li said.

"I don't believe it! You have aroused my curiosity at once! Tell me quickly!" Chu Miaoyi said.

"The emperor's princess who has just returned, your third sister's own mother, Ling Xue, is my daughter-in-law's sister. Gao Li said.

"Hah, then don't I have to call Sister Ling Long Aunt?" Chu Miaoyi's eyes widened.

"yes, embarrassing, right?" said Gao Li with a smile.

"It's not embarrassing at all!Auntie!Sister-in-law!Haha, you can ask for red envelopes directly during the New Year!yes!" Chu Miaoyi was triumphant, and Gao Li's face was full of embarrassment.

"Ah, poor man. Nonoka shook her head helplessly.

Gao Li leaned back in his chair, calculated, totaled.

The people around him looked at him thinking, and no one bothered him, just watched his brow furrow for a while, and then relaxed. After a while, Gao Li scratched his head and said something like this: "You say, should we go to do business with the border area?"

Everyone present was stunned.

"Xianggong, you ...... You can do that. Nonoka held back for a long time and said such a sentence.

"Okay, awesome, right?" said Gao Li with a smile.

"You're crazy. Airu said.

"Why do you think I'm crazy?" Gao Li asked rhetorically.

"Would you do business with a swarm of ants?" Aru asked.

"Yes, look. Gao Li pointed to the sky, where a pair of patrolmen of soldier ants flew over.

"Hello!" Gao Li shouted.

"Hello!" the soldiers shouted at once, and then flew over to a barrage of cheers of "Greetings to the host!"

"They were originally a kind of gold-eating ants, I made a deal with them, and then they became what they are now, some are working for me, some have become warriors, in my opinion, trading, as long as there is a profit between each other, who is not earning?" Gao Li smiled.

"You...... Awesome!" Aru was speechless.
