The abolition of polygamy and the introduction of a policy of equality between men and women within the Ming Dynasty caused an uproar in the fleet. Summer was afraid that the abolition of the polygamy system would not be implemented, and he even ruthlessly confiscated all the family property that had been polygamous, and Summer thought to himself, I see that you have no money, what else do you have to enjoy the extremely unequal treatment of polygamy.

For women who leave polygamous households, regardless of whether they are employed or not, they will receive a standard of living. If the children are still young, they will be raised by the woman, and four living robots will be specially equipped to provide services. In the law formulated in the summer, children are always the most precious treasure of Daming. So for a family, if you don't have children, you won't be able to enjoy the life robot service with all your might! And for families with children, each child will enjoy the services of four life robots before the age of eighteen, the more children, the more robots, and the maintenance costs of the robots are all paid by the fleet.

In addition to the great love for children, it is also very caring for the elderly, and each elderly person will be equipped with two living robots. Personnel who have contact contributions to the fleet are also entitled to up to two living robots.

There are many problems to consider in summer, such as the extremely uncoordinated phenomenon of more men than women, and how to solve the physiological needs of many single men. In the summer, those who can serve the fleet will be equipped with one puppet robot, and those who are in important positions or have contact contributions will be equipped with two.

With regard to the policy of equality between men and women and monogamy, the summer is a mandatory rule, which must be implemented regardless of whether it is opposed or not, and all of it must be done within three days.

Now comes the most critical part, Summer said: "I will now talk to you about the Sea of Life project. ”

Looking at everyone's bewildered looks, Summer said: "The Sea of Life, in fact, I also mentioned it to Admiral Feng in the morning, but it was called the Sea of ZiGong at that time. As you all know, some time ago, the unfinished project natural city built by Shen Thief only needs the support of a huge population. There is no one to live, and there is a use in building such a big natural city!

"So now it's about population, how to increase the rate of population growth? There are too few people in Daming now! I need purebred Ming people, there must be many, many people, at least a million people! There are only 500 people, and there are only 1,500 hibernating guests, and you think it's funny that you call yourself civilized just that?

"So how do you increase the population quickly? Just four hundred men and a hundred women? Moreover, there are many children and elderly people among these 500 people, and only 50 pairs can really reproduce normally. Do you think it's possible for these 50 pairs of men and women to quickly create a million people for me by natural fertility?

"So, that's why I'm mentioning the Sea of Life project. The so-called sea of life is to build a huge artificial zigong, that is, a fertility factory. It should be noted that the human beings produced from the factory are still natural persons, not clones, but with artificial implantation, artificial embryos. ”

The participants began to stir again, and Xia looked at the crowd and said, "Before talking about the specific implementation steps, if you have any opinions, just put them forward, just say it." ”

An official from the outer level raised his hand and said, "Lord Admiral, I would like to ask, even if there is the sea of life you mentioned, there are thirty couples in the whole ship, and a total of thirty fertilized eggs can only be provided every month, which is still far from the vast population project. ”

"Who told you that you wanted these thirty couples to provide?" Xia smiled, "There are more than 100 women in our fleet, I have checked, among them there are 75 women of childbearing age, and these 75 women, they are just low in culture, but their IQ is still normal, so their eggs are also normal." ”

"What do you mean, sir......"

Summer waved his hand, interrupted him, and said, "I know what you want to say, that's right, what I want to say is exactly what you want to say, that is, 75 eggs are levied every month, as for sperm, don't worry, there are so many men in Daming, there are. After the eggs are collected, they are placed in the sea of life for artificial insemination. The fertilized egg is not put back into the human zigong, which means that there is no need for a human to reproduce. Instead, it continues to be placed in the sea of life and artificially cultivated embryos. The embryo will stay in the sea of life for 280 days and will be artificially delivered in the sea of life. That is, it is all manual from start to finish. ”

After Xia finished speaking in one breath, there was a commotion in the venue from time to time, but it was boiling and there was a lot of discussion. One of them said, "This woman doesn't have any children, let the machine help give birth, what else is that woman called?" ”

Another person said, "If she can give birth to one in a month, won't she have hundreds of children in her lifetime?" ”

Someone else said, "Will this lead to ethical confusion in society?" ”

Some people even said: "75 children a month, more than 800 a year, I have so many children, how to raise them?" Even if the fleet is raised for free, it won't be too busy. There are so many children in the family, and they are all noisy. ”

In short, all kinds of voices filled the venue. Xia sneered and looked at everyone, and when everyone was almost done, he continued: "It's all over, I listened to what you just said, and I want to explain it to you." First of all, in the early days of artificial production, not 75 embryos per month, but 150 embryos per month. The Sea of Life is fully capable of nurturing twins.

"150 embryos a month, 18 years later, there will be 150 adults who can work for my Daming. And in 18 years, 150 people will grow up every month, isn't that amazing? And adults can produce artificially again, so the sea of life will start to bear fruit in 18 years.

"At the same time, after the implementation of the egg collection initiative, with the emergence of our current Ming population, there will be fewer and fewer qualified eggs collected later, but it doesn't matter, after 18 years, there will be a surge in population.

"Okay, now let's move on to the second question, which is the question of raising children, which you just discussed. What I want to say is that all artificially bred embryos are kept secret, that is, they are archived internally and kept secret externally. Each embryo has its own confidential file, which includes who its father and mother are, as well as its genetic code. Of course, after these embryos are bred into adults, their social relations are also opaque.

In other words, they don't know who their parents are, and their parents don't know who their children are. What's more, their parents don't know who each other is. All the children will be raised by the fleet until they reach adulthood! ”
