Chapter 10 Gray Zone
"That's right.
However, it is always more comfortable to drive, rain or shine, and you can also bring the elderly, children, or large items.
Look at those developed countries," where did Rin come from, Fang Ran was speculating again, "basically there is more than one car per family, right?" No matter how developed public transportation is, it is still better to drive yourself, go wherever you want, and there are no restrictions on time and luggage, which buses, subways and light rail can never do. β
"Can't you do it......"
Rin didn't agree with Fang Ran's words, but the words that came out were in a different tone:
"Well, you have a point;
In the end, it is more comfortable to use public transport alone, and public transport is just a transitional expediency. β
As he spoke, the huge Rolls-Royce turned the intersection and saw the seams driving on Jingshi Road, the traffic jam here was only more serious, Fang Ran didn't care at first, until the "Phantom" moved forward at a rapid pace, passing by a number of luxury cars of different models, he caught a glimpse of two bottles of drinks on the roof not far away, thought about it, and then showed a disgusted "cut" sound.
"What's wrong, Fang Ran?"
"No, nothing," even if he was used to soaking in the laboratory, Fang Ran also knew the subtle hint of the act of "putting a bottle of water", this kind of thing was obviously inconvenient to tell a little girl, but when the words came to his mouth, he somehow did not cover it.
"No wonder it's blocked all the time, and I can't walk; It's almost time to get to the gate of Angyi University, Rin, have you seen those cars with bottles of water on the roof, they are all here to fish, and they have been relying on it. β
"Bottle water? Is it a code? β
"Ha, you are really quick thinking, yes, I also didn't know it long ago, it's a homonym for 'sleep_with_me'."
Fang Ran said jokingly and briskly, he didn't quite understand why he was so outspoken, who knows, Shangguan Rin's reaction was even more straightforward:
"-Could it be that this is the so-called recruiting P and selling Y?"
"Uh, ahemβ"
Choked all of a sudden, Fang Ran coughed a few times at that time, and took water from the refrigerator between the two of them in embarrassment to drink, and it took a while to relieve his breath:
"Yes, sort of, it's a very dirty phenomenon, but it's also the norm in our time.
It is ridiculous to say that the mainstream consciousness and behavior of the relationship between the sexes is a typical 'binary split': the spiritual level supports buyouts and prohibits wholesale and retail sales, but what about the behavioral level? It is strange and strange, there are no wonders, not to mention wholesale and retail, sharing is not unusual, like this kind of driving to the school gate, putting a bottle of water and waiting for the rabbit, is just the tip of the iceberg of all kinds of transactions. β
"Well...... It's a weird behavior. β
As if coming from a dusty fairyland, now he suddenly saw an incredible scene, hearing this, Shangguan Rin looked out from the car very curiously; Of course, in broad daylight, she can't actually see anything except the luxury cars lurking outside the school gate and the demonic girls who occasionally come forward to talk.
The "phantom" stopped and watched with interest for a while, and then the little girl turned her face:
"Listen to what you say, Fang Ran, do you disagree with this 'dualistic split', that is, you support the release of this kind of transaction?"
"No, of course not.
I'm against all forms of this kind of dealing, but it's useless for me to oppose it. β
"Why?
While it may sound a little outrageous, it doesn't seem to hurt to me:
In your opinion, life is to chase happiness and avoid pain, since it does not involve others, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. β
Such naked* words, from the mouth of a stunning girl, although Fang Ran didn't think so, he was a little hot for a while:
"No, I don't think so.
The prohibition of all such transactions is the cornerstone of modern civilization, and in practice there is a gray area is another matter, and it is absolutely impossible to completely let it go.
First of all, Rin, there is a problem with your premise:
In this world, the vast majority of such transactions are not 'exchanging labor for pleasure', but 'exchanging wealth for pleasure', and how does wealth come about, it must be honest labor and legal business income?
A very small number of super-rich people have a huge amount of wealth, and no matter how much of it is ill-gotten gains, if they are allowed to act recklessly, the sexual resources of the whole society are always limited, and even very scarce, and a very small number of people wantonly squander and snap up all of them, but the middle and lower classes will get nothing, and they will inevitably run wild, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Second, the liberalization of transactions means that sexual resources can be realized;
But in this world, the sexual resources that everyone has at their disposal are unequal, even extremely unequal.
'All men are created equal', this sentence is simply empty talk when it comes to sexual resources, who can freely choose the body they live in, whether it is beautiful or ugly?
If such transactions were allowed, a few young and beautiful people would inevitably lie down and count their money, but what about the majority? can only use unscrupulous means to compete with each other for the qualification to suppress the handsome opposite sex under them; With such a huge disparity in the distribution of wealth, most people are doomed to go out of the game, and in the end, they often take risks and use violent means to try to get involved.
Finally, the most important point:
Sex is inherently exclusive, and this is the imprint of evolution.
If this kind of trade is allowed, in fact, it means that every encounter that people encounter in the normal course of their sexual interaction may encounter a 'scrap' that has been 'bought', and even if the person concerned is unaware of it, in a society where casual trade is allowed, everyone will only be at risk.
The situation is clear, these 'remnants' will never evaporate from the world, or they will all die alone;
In the end, who will take over?
It's not Zhang San, it's Li Si, in short, no one is safe. β
said so much in one breath, which can be regarded as a straightforward expression of his heart, and Fang Ran actually had a little speech-like excitement.
And Shangguan Rin, from beginning to end, crossed Erlang's legs on the spacious and comfortable seat, and listened to him speak of these one, two, three with a calm expression; After Fang Ran finished speaking, he thoughtfully raised his hand and dragged his chin, glanced at the man a few times with a scrutinizing gaze, and then breathed a sigh of relief:
"Huh~, I didn't expect that the resentment is so deep, I guess you must not have consumed sexual resources."
βββοΌβ
"Please don't be angry, I have no ill will;
'This kind of trading is not allowed', and it is well said that there is no such thing on our side.
But, how to put it, your series of analyses are only applicable here-" Rin said, glancing out of the window twice, "to apply; If nothing else, you will see that in an extremely developed civilization, the so-called 'sexual resources' are so coveted that they may not be as important as they seem. β
