406 The Age of Division
When society is at peace, when people are enjoying peace, few people think about the responsibility of maintaining this peace.
However, when a certain responsibility of the social system is not maintained, and those who are willing to take the initiative to maintain it will be hurt by negative emotions such as contempt and abuse from another group of people, then the responsibility of the social system becomes empty. Thus causing a huge disaster.
For example, in the early stage of the Wuhu Chaohua, the doctors of the Central Plains occupied official positions, but they were ashamed of handling "mundane affairs". These "secular affairs" were the management work that the magistrates were supposed to undertake, and all these scholars and doctors were entrusted to the officials below. If some scholars begin to deal with these "mundane affairs", they will be regarded by people from other families as not being graceful enough and not free enough. Doctor Dongjin Shi played like this, and the final result was needless to say.
There was also the state tax responsibility at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the eunuch group that tried to maintain the national tax system was burdened with all the infamy, but in the end, when Shenzhou sank, no one was responsible. And this kind of person who still talks about "traditional culture" in his heart and plays the "Han talisman", which is actually full of feudal dross, was completely trampled on by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and threw all the responsibility of history on the last minority dynasty.
Every step forward in history is new, but if you look closely at every bumpy in history, the reasons behind those mistakes are not new. But it is only when you touch the abyss with a mistake that you wake up
And Lu An, who was born today in another historical line, as a bystander, sees it more clearly, that is, everyone in this world has not realized that after the advent of the superpower, it has brought wonder to this world at the same time, it has also brought additional responsibility, and now no one has to bear this responsibility.
It is the responsibility of this society to stabilize the group of superpowers and give them the right education and guidance. However, public opinion now seems to be complaining about this responsibility. Another group in society, the superpowers, has begun to act on their own when they are unable to communicate effectively in speech.
By the time Luan came ashore, the rumors had reached their latest stage.
For example, there is a rumor that "the army has entered, Chongming District, and is about to take control of all superpowers." "Yes, it's a rumor. A rumor that is enough to shake the hearts of the superpowers in the entire Chongming District.
The government immediately refuted the rumors about Chongming District. However, in Lu An's view, this kind of treatment is simply a perfunctory act of treating others as stupid forks. It's not that "refuting rumors" is wrong, but they only unilaterally refute rumors in Chongming District, claiming that the government will not do it. But the government has not made such a loud statement to society as a whole, asking others to stop their extreme words and actions.
This is the standard politician operation in Western-style democracy, where politicians go to a crowd to canvass for votes and unilaterally make promises. Trying to stabilize the group. But once you leave this crowd, you can't go to the next crowd to canvass for votes, and it is still a promise, not a promise for the previous crowd, and a demand for the next crowd.
In the Western-style democratic electoral system, it seems that the president has come to each social class to show that he attaches importance to the people, but when he promotes his own policies, he only makes promises to different groups of people, and promises to each group of people, but does not make demands on other groups of people because of the promises of any one group of people.
Yes, the damned politicians of this era ran to Chongming District to give comforting words to the superpowers, but they did not have the courage to demand that the entire social public opinion must be rational for the safety of the superpowers, but they did not have the courage to confront some extreme remarks of ordinary people in this society.
Because in a Western-style democratic society of public opinion, it is extremely easy to divide camps. "If you don't absolutely agree with me, that's the opposing camp." On the historical line of Meng's throne, the Cold War was like this, and no neutral camp was allowed to exist. Only after the rise of the East again can the Oriental thinking be implemented internationally with the support of national strength. The international Cold War mentality of having to force others to take sides has been dissipated.
However, in reality, Lu An did not make any comments on this incident. Because Lu An thinks that if he is in the position of a politician, can he be able to speak up? After dozens of emotional discussions, the final conclusion was that I didn't dare. Don't dare to disobey the power of the crowd. This answer has already been answered by myself with practical actions (the time of the high school examination paper). It's amazing to say, in the previous life, he dared to do anything on the battlefield, but now he doesn't dare to speak.
However, Lu An secretly did more, after returning to land from the naval military operation, Lu An immediately ran to the mall and began to buy supplies, the first phase of the purchase of instant noodles, rice, kimchi (can be sealed for a long time, and there are many vitamins), soybeans (can make bean sprouts are also vitamins). and drugs such as antibiotics in pharmacies. To explain it in the words of an emotional state: "I can't control it, can't I hide it?" When you're all sane, I'll come out again. I'm a coward, and I'd rather be cowardly than stupid. ”
According to the worst-case scenario envisioned by Lu An, it is to hide underground for a few years, anyway, even if there is a global nuclear war, as long as the earth is given a few years to recover after the war, the earth will still turn green. (Of course, Lu An has other plans, and he is not under the eyes of others.) For example, in this sea exercise, Lu An is carrying out a certain plan).
Luan's behavior quickly attracted some attention, because Luan's second phase of material storage looked very strange, Luan first rented a warehouse for three years, and then bought tons of white sugar from the wholesale market and shipped salt to the warehouse. It looks like preparing to do futures business, edible salt is the most exaggerated, a total of sixteen tons, according to the standard of five grams of salt a day for a person, which is almost the amount of a person in 100,000 years. This is clearly unreasonable.
But after Bi Fangcai discovered this unreasonable phenomenon, he didn't take it to heart, after all, it was not a resale of contraband. It's not smuggling technical information, and Lu An is a bit weird, so he doesn't care about Lu An's behavior.
The first phase of material procurement is to deal with short-term disasters, while the second phase of materials is to deal with long-term high-intensity disasters. The most terrible thing about a long-term disaster is a massive collapse of morality, and in order to rebuild morality, it is necessary to ensure the supply of drinking water and food. For Lu An, the production of drinking water is not difficult, it is nothing more than filtering, boiling, and distillation. Luan has plenty of electricity
As for the production of edible salt, because he does not have the need to provide a country with the supply of edible salt, so Luan did not delve into this technology, Luan only has the technology of industrial salt production, because in the underground system fifty tons of industrial salt are produced every day (although industrial salt is fine if eaten according to ancient standards).
Because of the modern standard of salt, in order to reduce those harmful ingredients, the whole production standard is very strict. Adding a set of purification and filtration equipment does not exist in Lu'an's underground planning, mainly because it takes up too much space, and even if it is planned, it must not be commonly used, and the edible salt produced cannot be sold, and when industrial salt is used, then the energy consumption of this process is too wasteful. Therefore, if you can buy a batch of edible salt with tens of thousands of yuan, you can solve the problem, and you don't need to be entangled.
The purpose of buying so much table salt is simple, to salte seafood. As for the unmanned submersible for catching seafood, it was designed according to the plan a few months ago, and the initial sea tests were carried out, and it has been in the database for several months, and now Luan is ready to modify a production line for production. From an outsider's point of view, Lu An is hoarding materials, but judging from the proportion of the types of materials he is hoarding, it looks like speculation.
If you stand in the perspective of omniscience and omnipotence, seeing that Lu An has spent so much effort, according to ordinary people's thinking, these preparations must be very necessary. It must be used.
In fact, Lu An thought in his heart that this might be unnecessary. Even Lu An himself thinks that this kind of hoarding is probably doing useless work. Ever since returning from the world of noh arts, Lu An has developed this habit of doing "useless work".
From the perspective of evolutionary space, the hoarding work done by Lu An on this timeline has been done by Lu An in every timeline, and in most of the timelines, the final result verifies that Lu An's reaction is too radical and too cowardly. World development has not allowed Lu An to use the supplies he has prepared for a long-term catastrophe. (For most of the timeline, Luan does useless work, which is stupid for some fandoms.) So far, creators on other planes have not been able to follow the logic to depict the behavior of this important person like Lu An. )
Whether it happens or not is one thing, but whether you are prepared or not is another. It's like working in a nuclear power plant, where the stability of the various equipment in the nuclear power plant is very high, and if you don't check it in accordance with the rules and regulations for a day or two, then it's fine. But the workers will definitely check according to the system, and the leader will definitely supervise whether the workers' daily work is in place according to the system.
This is the cornerstone of Lu An's "luck" in the shadow of the universe, many things are prepared whether they happen or not, and they are prepared as long as they are possible.
While Luan is busy for the future, the city's neon lights are still flashing, and people still go to the food stalls after work. Most people's lives were not affected at this time. However, many ordinary people do not know how tense the atmosphere has become in Chongming District.
In the building of the Tiger Department, one glass cup after another was smashed with a "jingle bell".
He Kong paced angrily. Due to the very volatile mood of the students in Chongming District at this time, various experiments were terminated, because the students were seriously resistant to the experiments and were full of vigilance.
Organisms are not machines, they are especially emotional, and it is not enough to be given enough food and water and a place to rest. If a chicken farm alone sets off firecrackers nearby, it will scare a batch of chickens to death. People are more complex and emotionally rich than chickens.
The gathering of such a large number of young people with strong abilities is by no means a place to provide food, clothing, and shelter. The worldview of young people has not yet been set. highly susceptible to external influences,
Many perverted criminals in society suffered from serious family problems when they were teenagers, and they felt too much hostility and isolation when they were developing their personalities. So develop towards the personality of the Heavenly Evil Lone Star.
He Kong, who single-handedly created Tang Hongkang's experiment, is not a good person. But now he is also angry at the irresponsibility of this society, and angry with the blind public opinion outside. It's like a farmer who is annoyed that a group of square dance aunts are firing subwoofers near their farms. It's not that farmers love chickens, it's that farmers' interests are harmed.
"The troublesome student has been found?" He Kong said to the head of security of the Tiger Department. The person in charge said in a reportary tone: "Yes, according to the camera data, the students who set fire to the laboratory have been found. Request instructions. ”
He Kong heard this: "Scolding, instructions? Indicate a hair? Can't you call the chairman (Sheng Xin), how can you find me for such a big matter? ”
The person in charge said embarrassedly: "Sheng Xin's phone can't get through for the time being. ”
He Kong scolded in his heart: "Old and not dead is a thief." ”
