Disasters often come quickly and hatefully, and the suddenness that violently breaks everything is the most unbearable pain for people.

And this world, from the very beginning, was a little different.

"War? Pestilence? Act of God? Uh, is there one? Isn't that usually the case? ”

Sometimes, this kind of suddenness is extremely helpless.

But in the new capital, whether it is the busy workers on the road or the ordinary traders in the streets and alleys, there is overflowing vitality.

A smile, a brisk pace, and an optimistic tone.

This kind of spirit, Lu Ping'an can see, is a sense of expectation that the days will get better and better......

"Are we doing it right?"

Lu Ping'an picked up an apple from the roadside vendor, wiped it, and took a bite.

It's very subtle, cheap and not good, it seems to be the product of transplant failure, some are sour and even a little bitter, but there is also a hint of sweetness.

However, for the people of this world, it is already a difficult treasure.

“...... Uh, want? ”

A little hairy child on the side of the vendor looked at the road peacefully bitterly.

Even with the participation of the "Demon Plant God", the world's fruit and vegetable production is a thousand times higher, and the price of goods is greatly reduced, which is still a luxury.

"Uncle! I want to. ”

And this child of the long-handed clan nodded again and again, very excited.

"Want to ..... If you want it, you don't give it! ”

Lu Ping'an happily clicked and gnawed, even though he still didn't think it was delicious at all.

Oh, who's the uncle...... Ahem, it's teaching the little boy to be self-reliant, and not to always expect others.

"Wow, wow, the girl wants to eat apples, bad uncle ....." Immediately, the little guy rolled all over the ground.

Uh, it's a girl? That....... Well, girls should pay more attention, don't be deceived by a small apple, even if it's not a bait to lure you into going to a small dark house, just take other people's food, there is no mess in it.

"I feel relieved to see your continued nonsense."

Xia Qin walked over with a tired face, took out money and took a bag of apples, and gave it to the crying little girl.

"Thank you, sister! My sister is so beautiful! ”

And with food, the little girl was instantly happy.

Uncle? Sister? Looking at the little girl hiding behind Xia Qin and making a grimace, Lu Ping'an didn't give her a grimace angrily.

"How old are you, and the children are concerned." Seeing that Lu Ping'an was still peeling, Xia Qin said angrily.

"Tsk, I'm just an adult..... In a few months, this kid might be taller than me. ”

Lu Ping'an's this is not a hard mouth, but the fact that the long-handed clan in this world still has the special effect of "rapid growth", and there are many examples of "eight-year-olds" actually exceeding the thirty years of human beings.

“....... If you can, it's better not to come back to this life. ”

"Impossible, the best selling item among the zero-level prohibited items now is the 'Fruit of Growth'...... Childhood is too much luxury for the inhabitants of this world, for the front line that constantly needs to fill in the line. ”

The fruit of growth was originally a special product of that decade, and it was the official plug-in that world consciousness gave to local ethnic groups such as the long-hand clan.

It can speed up the growth of these ethnic groups, so that they can quickly reach adulthood, and give birth to offspring, dragging it with some regular bonuses, and the number of local long-hand and other ethnic groups has increased many times over the years..... The exact amount cannot be counted because the census is not realistic at all, but the conservative estimate is more than ten times.

Ten years later, this special species, which contains the "principles of the world", was supposed to die out, but as a result, due to the disappearance of world consciousness, it became a "treasure".

Of course, it's in natural decline...... But at this time, a god and the local high-ranking gardeners stepped forward, and finally succeeded in turning these wild treasures into "fruits of time" that can be mass-produced.

The only problem is that its performance is probably not as good as the previous eleven ..... But as long as the amount is enough, this is not a problem.

"Someone seems to be suggesting that this fruit should be banned?"

"What is impossible to pass, on the one hand, is demand, and on the other hand, if it is really banned, the locals will rebel first."

The local Changshou family, even if it is monogamous, with the blessing of special fruits, the pregnancy period will be greatly shortened, and the family may have more than a dozen people.

If they are all children, two adult laborers support a dozen people? It's unrealistic to think about this, in fact, most families are crazy about giving birth, just for more labor and more opportunities for wealth.

Newborns are the worst, they can become fishermen, farmers, and workers, and if a high-quality talent can appear, become a high-level professional, an official, a master craftsman, or something, maybe the family can be happy.

Especially after Lu Ping'an's "courtyard" began to mass-produce professionals, such a large-scale lottery will become more realistic.

When "having children" and "letting children grow up quickly" become the road to prosperity, who can stop them.

“...... It can't be stopped, this city, this race, this country, and this world all need more human resources. ”

While bypassing Xia Qin, lifting the girl, and rubbing her cheeks, Lu Ping'an responded realistically and cruelly.

No one can really jump out of the times.......

“...... However, we are also introducing some new policies, otherwise you would not see this 'child'. Even though we may call it hypocrisy, we are changing the world gradually. ”

Seeing that Xia Qin still didn't understand, Lu Ping'an explained.

"There is also a minimum childhood and a maximum number of hours to work, and there is a similar system ....."

The minimum childhood system, in which an infant reaches adulthood, is to be given at least two years of childhood, at which stage he can only be used as low-paid child labour.

In other worlds, this is an evil law that can be shot countless times, and it is actually a great progress.

"Isn't it because development requires accumulation, and for a good potential talent or workforce, it needs to be allowed to stay for a period of time at multiple stages of a child's life?"

"Well, don't tell anybody else, it's actually ...... About half of it was my nonsense. ”

Standing at the level of road safety, it is true that it is possible to forcibly interfere and legislate, but if it is done too much, it will not only fail to work, but also attract backlash.

He can only conform to the tide of the times, understand the needs of the general public, and give a little guidance.

Ten years has proven that half a year of childhood is sufficient, and even many children do not have this number..... Two years can indeed raise its ceiling, but it is more about giving it a relatively full "childhood" and making its mind more perfect.

Even so, there are still a large number of parents who shorten their childhood, and if the regulations further increase the number of years, it will naturally be reduced to waste paper.

In a sense, it's the same thing as a twelve-hour workday...... Under the banner of resting well, you can work more sustainably, and only by stating the benefits, this kind of "good" law may be implemented.

Internally, Lu Ping'an persuaded others that he used "the more mature the mind and the more bumpy the experience", the stronger the talent ability that becomes the awakening of the professional, at least the more variety.

As always, he told the truth, but he couldn't be sure how useful it would be or whether it would be cost-effective.

But judging from the results, at least for now, everyone still accepts it......

"At least, let these 'children' know why they are fighting...... If your heart is empty, I'm afraid that if you lose control, you will only have a thought. ”
