Chapter 294: Utopia
The two of them talked happily, and time passed imperceptibly, but there was no familiar day and night change around, only a retro clock on the wall, and earth time showed the classic passage of time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You haven't chosen a place to live yet, have you?" Howard asked them, "Can I invite you to the door?" I love you two so much! ”
"We didn't think about where we were going." An Yang looked at Hasina, and she was pleased: "If you don't bother, we'll be happy." ”
"Good day!" Howard was so happy that after taking a sip of the drink on the table, he couldn't wait: "You're going to be full of new things about the world, friends!" ”
After speaking, he took them away, and An Yang paused: "Don't pay the bill?" ”
"What does that mean?" It was Howard's turn to scratch his head.
However, the wise Mary has connected to the Internet and gained knowledge: "They are talking about the currency that was obsolete centuries ago, the equivalent of eating, drinking, and consuming. ”
"Why?" Howard was still puzzled, "Do you have to pay for food?" ”
Anyan and Hassina are also sweating, and they don't have to pay for food? If these words were set aside in their time, they would definitely be taken out and beaten as a bully's meal.
Maria quickly grasped the concept and popularized: "In the past, when there was a division of labor in class society, it was necessary for money to exist, because natural people were limited in energy and lifespan, so that there must be someone in charge of the allocation of property, and there must be someone who is not responsible for the allocation of property...... The needs of all human beings are greater than the resources that human society can provide, and money has meaning. ”
An Yang listened and nodded: "Yes, the society at that time could not meet everyone's requirements, some people were full and some people were not full at the same time, and those who were full hoarded resources, and then let the people who were not enough to work for them at the cost of resources and earn more resources." ”
Howard said: "Why don't the well-fed people share with others, everyone's basic needs are met, and work together to develop technological upgrades and improve the level of social supply as a whole?" As far as I know, the existence of the class division of labor is full of drawbacks. ”
An Yang is helpless, this feels like a free society person in the 21st century, going back to the feudal era a thousand years ago, opening his mouth to realize the idea of equality and liberalism for all.
This is not a level of thought at all.
Hasina spoke at this time: "Because of all its shortcomings, it has gradually been eliminated by society in exchange for a better way." ”
Howard's eyes lit up: "Madam, your answer is very good. ”
An Yang also looked at the girl who had solved this endless topic with one sentence, and she smiled proudly: "So now is the era of free division of labor?" Resources, needs and status are equal, and human beings are all pursuing 'self-realization'? ”
Howard nodded: "We have unlimited energy (nuclear), we have countless machines, what else needs us to do?" ”
Robots do everything, and robots only need enough energy, and nuclear energy is all over the starry sky, and it will not be exhausted for at least a few hundred million years.
Humans probably have nothing else to do except reproduce.
Maria adds: "But we still retain some priorities for the division of labor, in the form of workplaces, in proportion to the contribution of the people and the social efficiency of the area." ”
Howard gave an example: "If I want to build a house on the planet Olessis, according to the normal procedure, the robot team needs to make an appointment after two weeks, but the site can make an appointment in advance. ”
"We live in a time when this has not yet been realized, and everyone at that time longs to be able to spend their energy on things that interest us without being carried out by life. ”
Howard smiled: "For example, I want to spend time writing a book, Maria wants to have an art exhibition, maybe in a few years we will change to a socially beneficial job, such as a biologist like you, but I think I'm not very good at it, it's better to be an environmentalist......"
"Art exhibitions? Are you a painter? Hasina's focus was drawn to it.
The conversation focused on paintings, Maria's exhibitions, and the bubble car took them back to the Linders' apartment, where he introduced it as a shared resource for travelers.
Anyan couldn't find the right words to describe this model, which was probably a collection of circles, fellow travelers, and fraternities, where everyone could share an apartment in a specific area.
For example, in this apartment on the third floor, the door opened automatically when the owner arrived, and Howard said, "I am in a very, very good mood when I have a guest today. ”
Everything in the room is changing, and the living room, which was once empty, has been replaced by sofas, coffee tables and other items that look like plasticine.
But soon the furniture changed color and began to come to life, and Anyan came to the sofa and sat down. Experience, excellent ergonomic settings, wrapping him perfectly, massageable, rechargeable.
"Can the whole room be changed?" Hasna followed Mrs. Linde, Maria, to see her work.
The reason why I say that the room is a work of work is because during the visit, Maria improvised: "Most things in modern society can be changed at will, including the house. You guys like it...... Ancient? ”
She modified the style of the room to one where there were screens on the walls, overhead, and underfoot, as well as some strange paraphernalia.
Hasna was a little confused, and Maria said, "26th century style? ”
Anyang, who came to see it, sweated again, they had never experienced it in the 26th century, and if it weren't for the shocking and unbelievable, they would simply admit that they were visitors from the 20th century.
"Not bad." Hasna quickly adjusted, and she mastered the way to control the changes in the building, "but I prefer the earlier, traditional style." ”
The room was changed to a more aesthetically appropriate setting, and Maria walked in in amazement to look at it and ask for advice: "This is art!" Can I record it? ”
"Absolutely." She was pleased.
"Thank you so much." Maria rejoices, "We have recently been thinking about designing a room for the child, and we have only half of the proposals. ”
"You have children?" Hasanna was curious.
"I'm going to ask for it." Maria's gentle tone was like that of a human woman, and she listened to the ears of the two ancestors, surprised that she didn't know that she was a machine in her body.
Seeing their expressions, Maria, who knew it, laughed: "Your information is really seriously delayed, from friends from five hundred years ago. ”
"Technology is advancing too fast, everything needs to be learned." An Yang studied seriously.
"Let's share it." Maria shared the blueprints with them, "The federation stipulates that every intelligent entity has the right to have offspring, whether it is a carbon-based or silicon-based life, even if it is two silicon-based lifeforms, it can also design carbon-based life offspring. ”
"Genetic technology." An Yang quickly understood, and when he checked the pictures, he also understood that the genetic technology of this era is so capricious that the offspring can be customized to the level of everything before it is conceived.
For example, I want the child's facial features, body height, skin color, and hair color...... All can be customized, which explains why the streets are full of handsome men and women, there are no ugly people in this era.
Also because of highly developed biotechnology, people's life expectancy has been greatly extended, and it is difficult for aging to affect human beings, so there are few elderly people in this era.
Admiring the baby designed by Howard and Maria, from its one-year-old and two-year-old to the thirty-year-old in the following years, there is already a complete plan.
"It's beautiful, it's an artist!" Hasanna genuinely praised the boys and girls for their proposals, which captured her love.
"Thank you." "However, this plan will be postponed for a few years, and our current wish is to settle down in Paradise 2 Space City and think about the future after it is fulfilled." ”
"Heaven Two?" An Yang paid attention to this term, although this time and space had not yet shown that it had fallen out of order, and it was impossible to monitor it in all directions, but there were still some clues.
One of the clues provided by the intelligence was Paradise 2, which spoke out: "It is recommended to go to the field to investigate. ”
"Do you want to go to Paradise Two?" Howard could see, "That's a good place!" Nature, perfect resort, we wanted to settle there, unfortunately the conditions were not enough. ”
"On what terms?" Anyang thought to himself, isn't this a utopia of freedom and equality?
"There are people living there who are respected and have made great contributions, and the housing resources of the space station are also scarce, and to some extent, it takes a lot of money to enjoy it, we have enough work, but we still have a lot of wishes."
"I see." An Yang understands that although it is a utopia, it is not perfect to the point of absolute equality, and it still needs an equivalent in disguise.
Having this equivalent means that someone will have a lot and someone will have very little - although this can only be used for the highest luxury, and ordinary life is no different.
"The work point is a good thing." Anyan said that Hassina understood what he meant, and wanted to enjoy sightseeing, although she could do it without using a labor location, but how could she miss the most luxurious area?
