Zhang Yuan sat in his seat, listened to the group of people below complaining about the strange culture of the Riley civilization, and comforted with a smile: "Forget it, it's already a lot of gains, but it's not that bad......"

"How's the deal going? Are there any special reports about our diplomats? ”

Secretary General Li Cheng, who was standing on the side, replied: "It is still going on, and there are not too many twists and turns, and the trade will be carried out until they can't come up with anything new." Our scientists are studying the extraterrestrial animals and plants that have been transported, and it will take a long time, and there will be no good results for a while. ”

"Up to now, a total of 422 sets of stainless steel cutlery, 3,309 pieces of metal weapons, 122 pieces of armor, and 64 sets of primary production tools have been traded. The number of slaves traded was about 40,000 people......"

"There are about 16 nobles from 16 countries, and from this transaction, they have selected the first scientific knowledge."

Those stainless steel tableware, metal weapons and the like don't matter, Zhang Yuan raised his head and said with a little fun: "There are 16 seeds sown, which is not bad, I thought that no one was interested at all." ”

Li Cheng said with a smile: "It's mainly because it's cheap...... This knowledge is the cheapest in the trading list, and for the price of almost half a knife, you can exchange it for this knowledge. ”

However, the book does not explicitly say how to smelt metals, how to produce flames, etc., but "mathematics", "chemistry", "physics", "biology" and other seemingly inexplicable words. Due to the different languages and characters, human beings are too lazy to design for them, but they only go through the junior high school textbooks very roughly, and also delete some sensitive content, resulting in these books being obscure and foggy.

Another scientist explained: "There are also fanatical religious people who buy these books as gifts from the gods, and they want to buy them home and offer them as Bibles...... I don't know what kind of expressions these fanatics will have when they study it deep and understand the meaning. ”

For a while, everyone felt a little funny.

Immediately after, Zhang Yuan sighed again, "However, how it will be applied is not within our jurisdiction...... It's harder to predict what the future holds. ”

Just such a small interference caused a global earthquake in the entire Riley civilization. Even if this change stops as soon as humanity leaves......

"The influence of higher-level civilizations on lower-level civilizations can be seen."

"But according to the current observations, there is a high probability that even if these countries get chemical knowledge, they will not use it."

Because there are so many religious restrictions in this civilization, and the flame is known as a symbol of the gods, if chemistry can bring about fire, how should traditional teachings explain this idea? They are likely to cover it up and act as if nothing had happened.

In this era, the rules and regulations of religion are simply a bit excessive, and their binding power is stronger than that of the Middle Ages.

Those who question the gods will be sentenced to death for blasphemy!

"Even if the Riley people did find out about these facts, they would hide them and not use them...... These guys are still fanatics, so it's possible that they are directly schizophrenic! Li Zhendong laughed gloatingly.

Zhang Yuan denied: "That's not necessarily, every world has heroes." Don't look at them as very ignorant now, but who can really predict the distant future? ”

These 16 seeds do have the potential to take root and sprout.

Chemistry brings flames, flames bring smelting, and bring benefits.

At the instigation of interests, perhaps some new variables will arise.

"Moreover, this time, the interests are in the hands of the nobles of the royal palace, who have enough ability to fight against the deep-rooted divine power. It depends on whether they are greedy enough and whether they can abandon their original thinking. ”

"If all the seeds die, then we can't do anything about it."

It is difficult to predict the next step, even if mankind has the prediction science of the history of a new civilization, this science must be based on a large amount of information, and it is impossible to completely predict the future.

Human beings simply do not have the time to deeply investigate the industry, population ideology, etc., of this civilization, and it is impossible to stay here for hundreds of years to observe the subsequent historical evolution.

"What a pity! We don't see the results anymore. Zhang Yuan shook his head.

Everyone in the room looked sorry.

At this time, Dr. Li Cheng suddenly thought of something, and he sent a report directly to Zhang Yuan's mailbox: "Mr. Captain, here is a geographical report on Riley Star, and the members of the scientific expedition team seem to have made a major discovery. According to our scientists' speculation, Riley may be experiencing a mass extinction, and the Riley race is likely to be completely extinct within a million, or even ten million. ”

"So this group of scientists, I would like to invite you to the next meeting to discuss related matters in this regard, do we want to help?"

"Professor Ichiro Yamamoto, in particular, is studying what microorganisms can degrade certain materials...... You'd better check it out. ”

Zhang Yuan was stunned in his heart, from one million to ten million years...... Utter extinction?

What does that mean?

"Ten million years?"

"Yes!"

Although this period of time was very, very long, so long that humans did not necessarily exist, he was still taken aback and felt a little incredible.

He quickly came up with key words, such as the Ice Age, which led to the mass extinction of human ancestors, leaving only a few thousand people left.

Could it be that the planet is also experiencing a huge meteorological disaster?

But it doesn't sound like it, especially ...... What kind of microbes are Yamamoto tinkering with, and it doesn't seem to have much to do with meteorological disasters, right?!

"Let's go! Let's go check it out! ”

……

Life is not a rare commodity in the universe.

What mankind has seen and heard along the way has gradually proved this.

Geographically, planets that are suitable for the development of life, as long as there is enough time to accumulate, will always give birth to all kinds of strange life.

In order to explain this, various explanations have been proposed, such as "creationism", "cosmic life", "chemical origins", and so on.

One of the most popular views among current scientists is called the "theory of the origin of chemistry".
