Chapter 3: Unwillingness

Lu Yuanming woke up.

This time, he went to the dark matter world for eight days, and finally rescued all the affected people, and at the same time, he also made some people's livelihood and military arrangements below.

Thankfully, Alfred has been keeping a close eye on the crops and storing them in warehouses throughout New York City, so even if only half of New York City exists, there are still an exaggerated amount of food crops preserved, enough to feed these five million people for 50 years!

Although there are still many things, such as the half of the human civilization pillar is fogging very slowly, and as the dark matter world New York City falls into this dark matter world, the surrounding gray and white space begins to gradually appear on the ground, and the gray-white fog begins to shroud the dark matter around New York City.

All this is exactly like Tang Zhe'an's description of the dark matter world, this dark matter world is based on cognition to confirm its existence, there was nothing here, but with the emergence of dark matter New York City, this side of the dark matter world was confirmed by cognition, and then there appeared the earth, and the surrounding may exist, tombstones after the landing of other civilizations, or traces produced by dark matter natives (if any).

In other words, they can explore the world of dark matter!

Of course, all this is premature.

After experiencing a great cataclysm like the end of the world, these five million people are exhausted, they need to recuperate, they need time to heal their pain.

In the absence of a mortal threat, Lu Yuanming is not a demon, he only stipulates eight hours of national labor time a day plus two hours of study time and two hours of military training time, and the rest of the time is completely free for the people to spend.

Then, under the strong advice of others, including Tang Zhe'an, he reluctantly shortened the study time and training time to one hour each.

It's not that he's stingy.

However, although human beings, whether they are living in the material world or dead in the dark matter world, although they are all out of the desperate situation of the apocalypse, now is not the time to completely lie down and rest.

The more you see, the more you can know how terrifying this universe really is.

It's a world of despair!

A human civilization that is not attentive is over.

No, if you fall into the hands of such a narrative monster, it will be a fate even more terrible than death, becoming an NPC to be played with, or even worse meat or something, which is really 10,000 times more terrifying than death!

Lu Yuanming is the person who has the most contact with the existence of that narrative layer, so he is really afraid and afraid to the extreme, so not only has he become the real decider, but it has also had a great impact on his character in the past two years or so.

To put it simply, he has some symptoms of persecution phobia, and at the same time, his original slight obsessive-compulsive disorder has changed, in short, if he is not prepared, does not improve his strength or human heritage, he feels that he is wasting his life, even committing a crime.

In short, the development of the dark matter world in the next year has set the tone, that is, to recuperate, and at the same time vigorously advocate the birth of more fertility with rewards, which is actually the same as the human beings in the material world, in the dark matter world can also conceive and give birth to children, but the child born is the body of the dark matter world, and the soul or something is no problem, it is an ignorant and cute baby.

At this point, Lu Yuanming also returned to the material world with confidence.

It was still a metal ceiling, and there were still enough guards around.

“…… What's going on now? ”

Lu Yuanming got dressed and walked out of the private room, and he immediately asked.

Ke Yurong immediately knew what Lu Yuanming was talking about, and she reported without thinking about it: "The mood of the people is stable, the situation of various residential communities is stable, the situation of the moon is stable, and there are no accidents in the surrounding deep space, and there are no accidents in the target star system." ”

Lu Yuanming nodded with satisfaction, this is the best news.

Stability, peace, security.

It's more important than anything else.

Lu Yuanming said so, and then he vaguely heard the singing, which made him strange, and immediately walked towards the singing.

When Lu Yuanming went to the dark matter world, his physical body was sleeping in the first hospital, and at that time, for the convenience of the people, this first hospital was built in the center of the first-floor residential area, which could make it more convenient for the surrounding people to seek medical treatment, in other words, after coming out of the first hospital, the surrounding area was a large residential community.

Lu Yuanming followed the singing, and watched from a distance as a large number of people gathered in front of a square, and there was a hastily built stage in the center of this square, on which a young man was singing, and after a song was sung, a young woman went up and continued to sing.

Lu Yuanming's face was not very good-looking, and he said to Ke Yurong with a hint of coldness: "Wasn't the order I issued before completely silent?" Is there such silence? You're just looking at it? ”

Ke Yurong's face immediately showed panic, not only him, but also several scholars and some management officials who followed behind him, their faces were panicked.

In the past two and a half years, Lu Yuanming has really been able to kill people, although it is inevitably impossible to kill people indiscriminately, but once he commits similar serious dereliction of duty, as well as corruption and bribery, or abuse of power for personal gain, he will really kill people mercilessly.

And the matter in front of him is not big, it is not small, seriously speaking, it can be regarded as dereliction of duty, and as soon as it is checked, a large number of people will be worse, and even Ke Yurong may be counted in it.

At this time, Yang Lie, who was following the entourage, immediately said: "Your Excellency, I have something to say about this matter. ”

Lu Yuanming nodded and said, "I'm afraid that you won't say anything, okay, persuade me, or start the dereliction of duty investigation." ”

Yang Lie was actually scared in his heart, but he had always been quick-witted, quick-witted, and good at verbal communication, so he immediately said, "Your Excellency's comprehensive silent order should mean to prevent any information from the moon from being transmitted outward, right?" That is, it can be described as the theory of the dark forest, we are in a completely unfamiliar environment, and we have no idea what is around us, so we must keep quiet in the dark, silently observe whether there is danger around us, this is the only reason for the decision-maker to ask for silence, right? ”

Lu Yuanming didn't deny it at all, he nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I asked for silence." ”

Speaking of this, the people around were relieved, and Yang Lie also smiled and said: "During the period when the decider was asleep and tested the speed, we conducted a very thorough test and investigation of the information inside the entire moon, on the one hand, we are inside the moon, on the other hand, there are three layers of coverage on the lunar shell, a layer of rock cover, a layer of fleshy layer with a thickness of three hundred kilometers, and a layer of high-tension metal covering, in this case, unless we emit high-energy and high-penetration X-rays from the inside, Otherwise, even if we release a nuclear bomb internally, its information will not be transmitted outside the moon, let alone singing and dancing. ”

Ke Yurong also organized the language at this time, and she smiled obediently: "Also, this is also the opinion of the management seat, the people have made great sacrifices and efforts in the past two and a half years, and now they can rest and rest, otherwise they will be imprisoned in the metal room that has just been built, and the window is full of metal, because of the silent order of His Excellency the Decisioner, they don't even have the Internet, which is really going crazy, so we have opened a little public entertainment permission, but it is limited to regular sound waves, We still have very strict control over electronic information signals. ”

Lu Yuanming was silent for a long time, and then he sighed: "Yes, everyone needs entertainment, of course, there can be no lack of labor and study, and military training must also be put on the agenda, not to mention that all the people are in the army, at least they can afford to resist with weapons at the necessary moment......"

The people around listened to Lu Yuanming at first, and they all had smiles on their faces, but the more they listened, the more wrong they became, and they didn't even dare to have a little expression in the end.

Lu Yuanming looked left and right and said: "It is expected that there are five living floors, and we have only built one, and the current living conditions are actually very bad, so let's have a large meeting next, I, the management seats, and then the upper management will all attend the meeting, and we will discuss the people's life, study and labor in the next two years of the voyage." ”

Everyone nodded expressionlessly, and Yang Lie glanced sadly at the square where everyone was listening to the song, and then everyone could sign up to sing.

(…… Ladies and gentlemen, it's not that I won't help you, it's that this decision-maker is a little crazy, and I can fully imagine what he wants to say next...... )

Soon, the first post-apocalyptic meeting began under the orders of Lu Yuanming.

At the meeting, Lu Yuanming originally planned to speak first, but the people who already knew his intentions, including the political leaders of the original five strongest countries, and the current five seats, including the upper-level management officials who participated in the meeting at the same time, immediately made arrangements for the meeting.

First, the representatives of the low-level staff were arranged to speak on the stage to talk about the hard work and sacrifice in the past two and a half years, then the managers from all walks of life came to the stage to talk about the achievements they have made in the past two and a half years and how great the amount of work they have carried out, then the scholars came to the stage to talk about the existing human materials and conditions, and finally the managers came to the stage to talk about the existing shortcomings and the outlook for the future.

Lu Yuanming also listened to these things very carefully.

Because these are things that he witnessed with his own eyes.

Hundreds of thousands of people have died in the line of duty, and millions have committed suicide......

All of this was something he had personally experienced, even watched.

No matter how necessary the reasons, these are indeed great sacrifices, and he will never deceive himself in this regard.

Perhaps for the entire human population of 1.2 billion people, these martyrs and suicides can be said to be only a small part of the number, but for individuals and families, it is a huge unspeakable pain and despair.

The sand and gravel of the times fall on the head of a person, and that is the destruction of the giant mountain.

“…… To sum up, we human beings can survive in the deep space of the universe for at least 500 years with the existing materials! We have enough fresh water and seawater, we have stable hydrogen polymerization reactors, we have a well-established industrial system, and we have perfect wandering homes, among which the agricultural facilities are the most perfect, and in the production of the agricultural level, there is enough food to feed everyone for two years! So we even had to reduce our production volume a little bit to avoid the huge waste that would occur in storage. ”

"At the same time, the improvement of the industrial system allows us to use the materials we have in stock to produce all the necessities we need, and even almost most of the luxury goods."

"Finally, there are projects that still need to be built, including most of the area of the reserve layer, most of the area of the production layer, and the four-story area of the residential layer, of course, and the scientific experiment layer is still just a framework, which also needs to be put on the agenda, but!"

The spokesman looked at Lu Yuanming's brighter and brighter eyes, his expression remained unchanged, and he pronounced a but in an accent at the end of his words, and then continued: "In view of the great sacrifices made by the people and the absolute victory over the apocalypse, what we need now is not a desperate job, but a recuperation!" ”

Lu Yuanming immediately frowned and was about to speak, but the spokesman quickly flipped through the report in his hand and said, "You know, we only have a population of 1.2 billion!" ”

Hearing the word population, Lu Yuanming swallowed what he wanted to say.

In fact, a few beads of sweat had rolled down the spokesman's forehead, not only him, but most of the people present were actually wet with sweat on their backs, but fortunately, the worst situation had passed, and the spokesman immediately said: "As far as the sociological expert group, as well as the biological expert group, and the demography expert group...... The unified research and report of experts and other experts shows that human reproduction and reproduction are inversely proportional to the workload, and at the same time are directly proportional to the coefficients such as happiness, material abundance, social entertainment, and safety, etc., everyone, we humans will go to the target galaxy in two years, and we have controlled hydrogen fusion reactors, room-temperature superconductors, high-tensile metals, and even the moon, a huge spaceship in the galaxy, we can already be regarded as a first-class cosmic civilization, and we can already try to colonize the entire galaxy. But we only have a population of 1.2 billion! ”

"Engineering needs people, scientific research needs people, colonization needs people, and even people are needed to defend human civilization, we don't have enough people!"

Truly.

Lu Yuanming thought silently.

Population is the big issue.

This is not a dark matter world!

The situation in the dark matter world is unknown, and there is no way to develop science and technology, so in the dark matter world, the order is the foundation, and the population is secondary.

But the material world is different, here, the more the population, the greater the probability of giving birth to geniuses and great scientists, and at the same time, the development of civilization is inseparable from the population, a technologically advanced interstellar universe civilization, if the population falls into a static state or even the population is too low to gradually decrease, then this civilization is actually a declining civilization, and sooner or later it will completely disappear in the universe.

This was indeed something he hadn't thought of beforehand.

At this time, Lu Yuanming was about to speak on stage, he thought as he walked, and when he arrived on the stage, he said: "I always believe that learning labor and military training is a long-term human civilization strategy that we must adhere to...... Population is a big problem, so why don't we divide their daily time with ten hours of work a day, then one hour of study, and one hour of military training? ”

The delegates around were dumbfounded.

They really couldn't imagine what Lu Yuanming's original plan was before this.

Immediately, a large number of participants began to oppose it.

Lu Yuanming did not adopt a high-pressure policy on this, he talked with these opponents very seriously, and then kept asking think tanks and scholars for their opinions.

Then in the three-day tug-of-war, Lu Yuanming finally agreed very unwillingly to the joint opinion of the management seats, in fact, this is also the opinion of almost all the participants.

Six hours of work a day, plus one hour of knowledge learning and one hour of military training.

The motion was passed.

When he left the venue, Lu Yuanming's face was full of unwillingness.
