Chapter 349 No Bloodless Struggle

Sitting in front of Yun Shen, he sighed softly and melancholy.

"Let me rest for a while," he said.

Yun Shen smiled, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Young people these days are really scary," said Meravia. "Don't they feel the torture of conscience when they embarrass an elder?"

Against the backdrop of the snow-white walls and log bookshelves, his long silver hair, clear skin and golden eyes present a dreamlike hue. He just sits here with an almost melancholy expression. Melted for him.Yun Shen's voice was also very gentle: "I will let them pay attention."

Meravia sighed again, "You liar." He said to Yun Shen, "You let them treat me like a baby, but how can there be a baby in this world who needs to count?"

Yun Shen just smiled.

He obviously wasn't going to back down, and Meravia sighed halfheartedly again, and saw the device.He looked at it for a while.

"I thought it was a clock..." he said, "you made it."

Yun Shen said: "It may be better to make it smaller."

Meravia looked at it for a while, then nodded, "I also think it looks better as a ring."

Yun Shen...he smiled again, "I can't do this."

"It's more of a gift than it really is," said Meravia.

Yun Shen said softly: "As a gift from you guys, its meaning is much greater than I imagined."

Melavia looked at Yun Shen with those pure and clear eyes. Although he had no talent for Yun Shen's abstract logic, he would not confuse the other party's meaning here.He said "it" refers to the gadget in front of him with a simple appearance and very personal characteristics. Yunshen's "it" refers to the data he obtained after many experiments after changing his workplace eight times in two years. Originated from the descendants of the Dragon King, the power talent projected onto him, a human being, through a special method.

"Its function is only to let you know where the 'magnetization' field of your will has expanded, but people with gifted power will not be affected, and mortals will not change their memories and feelings because of this, but can share part of your wisdom. I think it's a powerful talent with minimal harm, if not entirely harmless," said Meravia. "That's exactly what you need, don't you like it?"

Yun Shen didn't answer, and after a while, he asked, "What do you think of the tool 'computer'?"

Meravia tilted her head and thought for a moment, "It's the most powerful, most complex, and most fragile tool I've ever seen here."

Yun Shen said: "Strength talent is a tool, and people are tools. If people are regarded as tools, in the world I know, there is no creation that is stronger, more complex, and more fragile than people themselves."

"Are you worried that you won't be able to use this talent well?" Meravia asked.

"I will work hard within my ability." Yun Shen said, "Since there is no way to control it yet, I can only let nature take its course."

"Then what are your concerns?" Meravia asked confused.

Yun Shen's eyes fell on the small device, and he said slowly: "Using tools is the fundamental difference between humans and animals... Humans invent tools to assist and replace part of the labor. Tools are the extension of human limbs. The more advanced the society, The more basic labor that tools can replace, from manual labor to mental work, the complexity of tools gradually increases, and then as far as I can see, concrete machinery and abstract mathematics are closely integrated at the peak of artificial intelligence. Together, because of the need for efficiency, people hope that artificial intelligence can reach or surpass the capabilities of the human brain. But at the same time, they also fear that, as their inventors, they will be controlled and eliminated by evolving machines instead.”

"It's interesting what you're trying," said Meravia in amazement.

Yun Shen pondered and said: "People invent and use tools, and tools will in turn affect people's living habits and ways of thinking, just like people transforming nature, they will also receive various feedbacks from nature because of these transformations. Therefore, sometimes I would think, this kind of talent will allow us to turn people into a matrix computer, or... With the expansion of this kind of talent, many behaviors that we think are due to individual will will gradually evolve into a kind of collective will Expressive tool?"

Meravia froze.

He lowered his head and thought for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "You really don't look like a human anymore..."

Yun Shen smiled slightly at him, "But I know, I'm still human."

Meravia watched him warily, then breathed a small sigh of relief.

"There is no god in this world," he said. "Before you came, many people thought that there are so many changes in seasons and weather because there is a huge rational consciousness in the void that controls the world, although some people know that it is not This is the case, but it is also difficult for them to give a more reasonable explanation. If you want to summarize the laws and predict the future, these people who are obsessed with developing spells are probably not as good as an old boatman. But now you have started to make weather maps."

Yun Shen smiled again, and cooperated with him to change the subject, "Because we are 'standing on the shoulders of giants'."

"The new residents think it's a 'divine power,'" said Meravia.

Yun Shen said: "They just didn't adapt. Because the basic data are close, many formulas can be used here, but our altitude-fixing balloon and ground observation can only provide data within a range of about [-] kilometers, and we are still in the stage of accumulating data. With the current technical capabilities, as long as we have enough time, we can draw a surface weather map within the control area, but there are still some difficulties in high-altitude weather maps. A large part of our current ability to forecast the weather within three days depends on Your help."

Therefore, although Meravia had a good time in the position of an instructor whose ornamental value was greater than the actual value (to others), after the weather department was established, Yun Shen still persuaded him to change jobs.

From Yun Shen's point of view, it's hard to say whether Melavia likes this new job better or very much. Of course, young people like him very much.

"Even in my opinion, you've done a really good job," Meravia said. "You just finished a perfect harvest."

"There is still some finishing work left," Yun Shen said, "but this year's work is really good."

"I should be used to you making a big fuss about everything you do, but this year's autumn harvest is like a war. For a whole month, from east to west, from south to north, tens of thousands of people and countless machines are invested in this matter. What's more, the trains are running day and night, and you even use the army." Melavia said, he tilted his head, "I even regret that I can't eat ordinary food, you can feed a big country .”

Yun Shen just smiled.

They have not yet cultivated local hybrid varieties with stable yields, and they have only developed part of the planned land at present. The management level is different, the seeds are degraded, and they are not suitable for the land and climate. Counting within the expected range, the real test will come after the nitrogen fertilizer plant is put into operation next year.The more people they absorb, the greater the demand for food, and the higher the requirements for management level. The accumulation process from quantitative change to qualitative change is difficult.

"About the army," said Meravia, "with your current food reserves and other production capabilities, you can let them concentrate on training and become professional soldiers, but you still let them have their own farms, and you still have to pay attention to them. The farm directly under the department is next door. Also, the Huckle tribe was hit by floods this year, and you asked them to assist in disaster relief, and you signed a contract with the chief after the disaster. I know that what you want is never the same as others, this Is this practice also training for them? You want them to be able to pick up a gun and pick up a hoe, just like you are committed to basic education and lower the barriers between different occupations?"

Yun Shen hummed, "It can also be explained in this way."

"It can be explained that this is not what you really think?" Meravia asked, "Just like you treated the city of Kanlar?"

Yun Shen thought for a while and replied, "This is the thinking inertia brought about by my past life. I think it is natural for the army to focus on improving professional skills, but there must also be some channels to make them realize the importance of being in the army. A larger group other than the collective, the latter is the reason for the existence of the armed forces and the driving force for their development. Weapons are made of steel, and human hearts are made of flesh and blood. As a social animal, the closer you are to others, the easier it is to find your own Location."

Meravia mused, "So they can supply some of their own needs, but they can't be self-sufficient. What about Kanlar, then?"

He looked at Yunshen, "I am very confused. How did they operate there to lead to today? Many people want to know what happened there. Is it because we didn't provide enough help, or did we do something there? What a bad thing, let us be kicked out by the other party. Should we treat those people in a different way?"

"Kanlar's question is representative." Yun Shen said, "After the follow-up processing is over, I plan to start a discussion."

Meravia watched him silently.

Before this, probably only Sheng Wanglong had faced such eyes, but Yun Shen, who was stared at by him, lost his concentration for a short time, "The blood relationship between father and son is also reflected here", although the two expressions are different, Tianlan's gaze is also more tender than Meravia's and can't bear to refuse.He quickly collected his thoughts. In any case, it is a good thing that Meravia is interested in and has a sense of substitution in this specific issue of collective operation and development. Yun Shen turned his head to get his notebook, and Meravia also found out Pocket book, and also took out a pencil.

"About Kanlar and its surrounding tribes," Yun Shen said, "From the very beginning, the development of this area is fundamentally different from the other two sites we chose, and the results of the current development are predictable."

Meravia waited, pen in hand.

"After that tribal alliance meeting, we successively selected three sites for trials. The first trial site was the Sahir tribe, the second was Kanlar and its surrounding areas, and the last one was at the midpoint of the current railway line. The difference between Basil Kanlar, a Leopard tribe on the station, and the other two pilots is that it is neither like Sahir, who has a high-reputation agent like Braland, who communicates well with us; nor is it like Basil. Sier, the main body of the tribe is relatively simple, with a low level of productivity and a loose structure. It is easy to compromise in the face of the intervention of powerful forces. The lack of living resources makes them look forward to the improvement of living conditions, and their obedience is relatively high; on the one hand, the situation in Kanlar It is relatively complicated, the distance leads to poor information exchange, and the consumption of material transportation is very high. The local authority of the werewolf tribe that cooperates with us the most is based on the advantages of population and force. Our construction plan has transferred a considerable part of their young and strong population. The tribes need more and deeper cooperation to complete the production plan. This kind of cooperation needs to be united under a strong core, but because of congenital defects, the organization efficiency of their internal covenant is relatively low, and the power to operate specific affairs is given up after various procedures. It was transferred to the aid team represented by Perth and the others, which is one of the root causes of the contradiction."

He paused to wait for Meravia.

"According to the common principles we established at the meeting, any initiative to seize the highest local power will damage the alliance relationship, so Boss and the others kept the tribal power structure as complete as possible." Yun Shen said, "But On the other hand, they have changed the living conditions of the middle and lower classes of the tribe in many ways, and controlled the use of land and the output of the land, which means that the distribution of living materials is also in their hands. After this process is completed, the tribal leaders Sensible resistance was felt in exercising power, and most importantly, they lost their economic base."

When organizing the production team, Boss proposed to allocate the proportion of production income to the tribal upper structure. The proportion is not high, but after converting it into an absolute number, it is enough to make most tribal leaders and elders give up joining the actual production team. Labor, and in the management of the production process, Boss and the person in charge of the aid team adopted the settlement model at the beginning, which also caused serious obstacles to those leaders, from agricultural development to urban construction, and even some In the operation of the workshop, if the tribal leaders are unwilling to devote a lot of time and energy to participate, they will be isolated from the entire production process except for the overhead power and some distribution of products.Even so, the benefits they can get are much more than ordinary orcs. The supply and marketing point set up in Kanlar buys all agricultural products regardless of region, but there are great restrictions on the external sales of industrial products, so Those upper-class tribal families who did not participate in labor sold the grain they obtained to the supply and marketing cooperatives, exchanged for industrial products and traded with others, thus accumulating a lot of wealth.

But the more gold, silver and gems they got, the poorer the power.

Only the former residence of Sacher, which has been renamed the Second Industrial City, buys precious metals and some rare ores, and only accepts transactions with tribes, and individuals ignore them. The restrictions here are even stricter—if you use these in the name of tribes The treasure and the bank were exchanged for steel coins, and these steel coins were included in the tribe's public accounts the moment they left the bank, and every expenditure was recorded by the accounting department in Kanlar City, and if there was no record, or at the end of the year If the settlement is not correct, then the tribal leaders and their agents who went to the Second Industrial City to trade will be deprived of the distribution share of the year at the public meeting.

This kind of punishment was implemented only once, and it brought a lot of hatred for Perth and the others.

That meeting almost caused a riot, and it was also at that meeting that Perth and the others showed their control over the tribe.Since then, the contradictions between the two sides have continued to accumulate and escalate. A large number of industrial products have appeared in Az City opposite Kanlar. A crossbow awaiting repair was stolen from Perth's office. A logging team disappeared in the woods. Bloodstains were found but no corpses were found, and three crossbows were missing at the same time. When the harvest season came, some people even wanted to set fire to the grain fields.On the Perth side, during this process, at least [-] upper-class tribal families were banned from sale by the supply and marketing cooperatives. Regardless of daily work or routine meetings, more and more people expressed their concern for the tribal leaders and others’ way of life for nothing. In order to avoid doubts and objections, they set up checkpoints to check and record the orcs entering and leaving the city, and strengthened the defense force of the main production sites. As for the prisoners who set fire at night, they have been publicly executed. The head was hung on the city wall, and the corpse was burned and discarded in the cesspit.

Things have developed to this point, and the room for compromise between the two parties is getting smaller and smaller.The tribal leaders who thought they were driven into a desperate situation used the means they thought were the most effective. At the last working meeting, they pointed out that the actions of Boss and others had betrayed what was witnessed by everyone at the Musa Conference. Covenant, they should return the distribution power of products at all levels, and let go of free trade; Boss and all the production captains opposed this, and once again questioned the necessity of the patriarchal system; then the normal meeting process was suspended, and the two sides blamed each other, The tribal leaders said that the opposite Az City has been built and developed, and there is more basis for cooperation with them. If the assistance departments cannot make the right choice, they will be greatly threatened. an extreme response.

They organized a vote, and the vote turned into a resolution.

The consequences of the decision are now gradually emerging. The aid team withdrew and the city of Kanlar was divided.

"I don't think...is quite right," Meravia said. "What about the others? Shouldn't they be the majority?"

Those orcs who accepted the arrangement and were organized and improved their lives with their own labor, the "majority" that Yun Shen has always emphasized when he was a magician, where are they located in this series of changes?

Yun Shen raised the hand holding the pen, and pointed to a position on the bookshelf for Meravia, about as long as his arm, there were no gaps in the report documents.

"They are here." Yun Shen said.

"Every quarter, homework is collected here." He took out one of the books, put it on the table, and spread out the first one. Thin, old, and somewhat rickety werewolf female, the painter is hard to compliment, and it is even more difficult to imagine the relationship between this portrait and herself now, and her name and part of her experience are written in pen next to the portrait.

Rabbi, female, between 32 and 35 years old, with an old fracture in her left leg and scars on her face, rescued under a cliff ten kilometers west of Kanlar City, with a high fever, accompanied by the corpse of a male werewolf, who was identified as her spouse ,...

"I assigned homework to them." Yun Shen said, "In the first year, I asked them to observe and investigate every tribe that joined the construction of the new city, and record the tribe's population structure, physical condition, and the main methods of tribal leaders' management of the tribe. The power class they formed during the construction process, as well as the changes in demands, etc. In the second year, I asked them to choose the representative figures they thought to contact in their spare time."

The deterioration of the relationship between the aid team and the upper tribes in the Kanlar area is a gradual process. Before starting the work, the aid teams including Perth believed that the Kanlar area might be able to replicate the Sacher Due to the way of development, the attitude is not very positive. The conflicts in the work mainly focus on the communication with the tribe members. These situations are supported by Yunshen remotely, and the construction team constantly adjusts the working method according to the situation. The most important thing is the first Much improved after a collective harvest.It was also after the first collective harvest that Boss and the others realized the existence of "irreconcilable contradictions".

Geographic and ethnic intervals, and then they started their own "experiments".

Since contradictions are irreconcilable, conflicts are also inevitable, but when, where, and how they will occur, you can try to control them.Perth and the others have devoted a large part of their energy to women's work, and their efforts have also achieved certain results.
