Chapter 436: Becoming a Useful Person for the Dynasty
After a pause, Yan Luge continued: "People who are engaged in tour guide work generally belong to category C, that is, the type of 'having a certain technical content but not high', but those who are capable are mediocre, and those who do a good job may not be promoted to a national foreign guest receptionist in class A, and those who do a poor job are mixed into class D abound. β
Like the one they came across.
With the service attitude of this tour guide and the price of this group, Yan Luge thinks that it is good for him to have a D grade.
"Divide a person's social status by his contribution to society, artificially create a class while retaining a ......path to rise," the middle-aged man in the front row, who seemed to be a little literate, whispered, "a very cold, but also very realistic social system." β
"Actually, every country is doing this, but most of them are not as naked as the Mauryan Empire." Someone answered.
"There's nothing wrong with being naked. As long as it's fair enough. The middle-aged man added, "Here, everyone's rating is scored by the peacock." Machines manage people, which eliminates the possibility of cheating. β
"I don't feel comfortable being watched all the time...... Do you like that? β
The middle-aged man sighed: "Compared to my own country...... I really envy this place......"
"What about the royal family?" Someone in the car asked, "I heard that the royal family members of the Mauryan Dynasty have a high status, what kind of category are they?" β
"Class S. A little higher than Class A. This time the answer was actually the tour guide sitting in the front row, "All members of the royal family are S class personnel." β
This guy seems to be closing his eyes, but in fact he has been eavesdropping on the conversations of tourists.
At this time, he felt that if he didn't say something, then his rating for this job would really plummet.
A straight-talking tourist interjected: "Taller than those brilliant scientists?" Isn't that fair? β
"Don't interject, listen to me." The tour guide said dissatisfiedly, "Don't think that we are a backward feudal country as soon as you hear about the rule of the royal family. This perception is wrong.
"In an ordinary feudal state, the 'royal family' is a vassal force of the supreme ruler, with blood as a bond, but all the blood relatives of the ruler can be called 'royal family'. For example, in the neighboring Nishizawa Empire, the descendants of the Nishizawa Emperor can be called 'princes' even if they only know how to play games, and even the brainless vases can become 'imperial heirs'...... It's ridiculous. These people rely on the support of the people to maintain a good life, and the whole child is a bloodsucking worm lying on the country.
"But in the Peacock Dynasty, all the bloodlines of the Holy King must face an absolutely fair 'trial' when they reach adulthood.
"If they can't prove that they have the talents of Category S who are above all living beings during the 'trial', they will be expelled from the royal family and all privileges will be revoked.
"Even the eldest son of a contemporary holy king is no exception.
"All the people of this country, all their lives, have sought to be a 'useful person to the dynasty.'"
......There was a moment of silence in the car, and someone asked, "What is 'trial'?" What does it mean to be 'useful'? β
"You don't understand the ......," the guide said, "and if anything, it's a test of the royal family's ability to create or lead an industry, whether it can benefit a group, and whether it can guide the country forward." β
It happened at this time that the bus crossed a wide avenue.
On the exterior walls of the tall buildings on both sides of the main road are huge portraits of the Holy King and the heirs of the royal family, and it is unknown whether it was due to the needs of state propaganda or the spontaneous actions of merchants.
The tour guide pointed to a portrait of a middle-aged man dressed plainly and with a compassionate face.
"The fourth prince, Saint Grace, is a great philanthropist. He revolutionized the medical and philanthropic professions, saving countless lives, and no one has surpassed him to this day. β
After speaking, he pointed to the second intellectual woman with a gentle temperament and a baby in her arms.
"Sixteen Princesses of the Holy Heart, great anthropologist. She specializes in the field of human genetics and fertility, and some of the new concepts she has proposed have sparked great changes in our society. β
Then came the third young man with long hair and a shawl, a tattoo of a skull on his neck, and a deviant temperament.
"Seventy-Seven Prince Saint Song, great artist. He was the godfather of the new art of the Mauryan Dynasty, and successfully brought the new art into thousands of households, so that everyone fell in love with the new art. β
And finally, a portrait of a holy king wearing a crown of royal power and a colorful feather robe.
"The reason why the contemporary holy king is the 'holy king' is because when he was the last heir of the previous generation, he created the 'peacock', which made our country's computer technology achieve a qualitative leap, and even changed our way of life, making us the most advanced country in the world with the highest national happiness index."
"Isn't such a character qualified to be an S class personnel?" The tour guide turned around, his tone with a bit of weird fanaticism, "Isn't such a royal family qualified to be our current and future rulers?" β
I don't know who in the car said coldly: "At least, it is much more qualified than those 'politicians' in our country." β
"The sage is king. The heir to the throne thus selected is indeed better than that under the Nishizawa system. β
"So, the contemporary Saint King is actually a programmer?"
"Yes. The computer technology of the Mauryan Empire is not ordinary. I've worked on this, I've done some research, and the ability of the 'peacock' is overwhelming all over the world. β
"Is it so powerful?"
"Hmm. I also heard that the hospitals of the Mauryan Empire are the best in the world, with high-quality doctors and cheap fees, and many people come here every year under the banner of tourism. You don't know, do you? β
"I've heard of that...... It seems that the country is also famous for new art, and my son goes to bars every day, howling those inconsistencies. β
The tour guide's words resonated with the tourists to a certain extent.
The Mauryan Dynasty is also one of the five great powers, and it is still quite influential among people in different countries and regions.
"Do you feel that the current generation of the Holy King is very similar to a person?" One of the tourists said suddenly.
"Who?"
"Yan Rong! The richest man in the world who died young. β
Yan Lige, who had already begun to wander, suddenly heard his father's name: "? β
"Don't you really think?" The tourist who first provoked the topic said, "In the past few decades, I have been most impressed by the two of them who have single-handedly brought great changes to the world." β
"There's a difference." The person who answered the call glanced back at the huge poster outside the window that was about to leave sight and said, "At least, the children of the Holy King are very good, much better than the loser in Yan Rong's family." β
The song of the prodigal son: "......"
He didn't want to quarrel with the tourist who was talking to him, but he wanted to fight the guy on the poster for 300 rounds.
Destroying from the source is better than his reputation, and he is the first.
"What do you think, tour guide?" There are also people who don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement.
"I don't pay much attention to things abroad, so I don't know who you're talking about." The tour guide's expression was calm, "However, if what you said is true, then he does have the qualifications to meet the Holy King." β
"Is it just a matter of qualification?"
"Of course. Or else? The tour guide raised his eyebrows, and the arrogance of "our dynasty is the best in the world" came up again, "Ordinary people, do you still want to be compared with the Holy King?"
"Let's not talk about it, we're hereβ"
This guy is really annoying.
Yanluge wanted to scold him twice, but he was attracted by the scene outside the window, and forgot about this annoying little minion for a while.
Their destination has arrived.
