Chapter 2336 The Burden of a Generation
2353. The sacrifice of a generation
Can you imagine a kilowatt-hour of electricity costing more than $100?
Can you imagine that when this price appears, people tell you that it is just the market price?
From a market perspective, what they say is correct.
With the arrival of the blizzard, many problems appeared on the power transmission roads, requiring employees to rush around to repair them. The loss of power transmitted was also huge. For example, the power transmitted to households was not as good as in the past.
Those losses will naturally need to be borne by those of you who are still enjoying it!
That's what people think. Isn't that what a market economy is?
A hundred dollars is still not the limit. As time goes by, as long as the blizzard is not over yet, the price will still rise, and a few hundred dollars is not impossible.
From other people's perspective, it seems to be right, and their laws also support them in making the same choice.
Isn't this protecting private interests? This protection looks very bright, but everyone knows that most of this protection is to protect the strong.
These slogans are just for the weak, nothing more.
You may say that the law itself is not wrong, and the weak can also take up the weapons of the law to protect themselves!
Dear, who doesn't know that is the ideal state?
Doesn't it take money to take up the weapons of the law?
In those countries, why are there so many lawyers, and isn't it because of necessity?
The GDP created by their team of lawyers alone in their country exceeds one trillion U.S. dollars. This is simply unimaginable to us, but others recognize it and think it is what it should be and is necessary to protect their laws themselves. of.
But who doesn't understand that no matter how many lawyers there are, not the real weak can afford them.
And what about the strong, or the truly rich?
They are not afraid of so-called lawsuits at all. They have plenty of money to spend with you.
If you truly study their structure in depth, you will find that their starting point from beginning to end is to protect the truly wealthy!
Therefore, it seems to them that electricity costing more than 100 dollars per hour is a very reasonable thing.
But here, is it possible?
This is the biggest difference between public and private.
We often criticize those Yageos for losing money every year, but if you ask them to agree to simply privatize these Yageos, they will definitely be the ones who oppose the strongest.
Because they understand that once they do this, only they will be truly harmed in the future, and it will only be a very small number of people who gain weight.
You see, A Chou is already known as the most powerful country, but among their remote suburbs, which one has full signal?
Is it possible that private telecommunications groups will accept huge payments and only gain a tiny amount of profit?
People know how to calculate the gains and losses so well that they never even consider such a construction from beginning to end.
But in our place, even if there is only one house on the hill, electricity must be transported there, just to light up each house.
Don't we understand that there is simply no direct proportion between effort and benefit?
We also know that, but our starting point is not just interests at all.
From beginning to end, it is impossible for us to ignore the weak, and we are still providing the most basic protection!
Perhaps we are still unable to achieve all-round protection, but we must also understand that our wealth is indeed insufficient to support such all-round protection.
Even though we have risen in the past, the throne is still under our control!
After the spiritual energy was revived, or now, wouldn't this situation disappear one by one?
From the moment the Yanhuang Alliance was born, you will find that these things that made us depressed in the past have gradually disappeared.
Even the weakest ones, those who are too weak to survive in Liu Hao's earth, can only let them change their environment, such as going to the Zongwu Ming Empire, or going to the Huang Feihong world in the back link.
In Liu Hao's world, they are still weak, but these people are not without value. In Huang Feihong's world, they are talents. Even as literacy teachers, they can show their true brightness.
Besides, it's not just literacy teachers.
Which of the weaklings Liu Hao and Earth has not received education for many years? With some training, you can become a farmer very well, right?
Nowadays, the land conquered by Huang Feihong in the world does not need such talents to open up and cultivate it?
When you find that you are not suitable for the path of spiritual practice, you can still take a step back and there is still a vast sky for you to choose from.
To put it bluntly, we are now rich enough to afford the basic necessities of life for all the weak.
You don't need to worry that no one will marry you after you take a step back.
Taking a step back, even if our own girls dislike you, there are still countless girls from other countries who covet you. Do you need to worry about this?
Now in the Huang Feihong world, the countries other than ours, combined, still have more than 30 million girls married into the land we control in the Huang Feihong world.
Doesn't this already give us the best answer?
When you are so powerful that others and other countries cannot reach it, you will find that all the problems you struggled with in the past were actually never problems.
Some people come to serve as stepping stones for you, and some are willing to marry the most beautiful women in their country into your family.
Even if you are the weakest among us, you don't need to worry about anything, because you have such a powerful country behind you to support you in any crisis, and the real danger will not really fall on you.
Nowadays, the people of Liu Haolong Kingdom who have retreated to the world of Huang Feihong are like this.
They clearly know that with their luck and talent, they have reached the limit of what they can achieve. If they continue, it will be impossible to achieve it no matter how much resources they invest.
Most of them had to retreat, even if they were very unwilling to do so.
But they are not completely disappointed. If they can't do it, it doesn't mean that their descendants can't do it either.
Just because one's own talents are insufficient does not mean that the talents of the descendants born by oneself cannot exceed one's own.
In the past few decades, haven't there been many such monks coming out of these "most rural" lands?
There's no reason why others can do it, but you can't, right?
The reality is indeed like this. Even if they retreat to the world of Huang Feihong and become out-and-out farmers, those with better talents among their descendants can also be well cultivated, such as joining the army.
Don't think that if you become a soldier, the risk will be much higher, and the mortality rate will definitely exceed that of the civilian population.
The reality is indeed the opposite. Even if the most dangerous situation requires these soldiers to be at the forefront, the death rate will still not be high.
On the one hand, our current medical treatment has become a system and has developed in many aspects. For example, doctors from hundreds of systems, such as the magic priest stream, etc., all have their own medical plans, and there is always one that suits you.
In other words, as long as you are not killed on the spot, you can basically be saved.
On the other hand, our team of soldiers will never be sent to the front line as soon as you join. On the contrary, there will be a long period of training waiting for you before that.
In this process, only we know best how many resources each soldier needs to consume to reach maturity.
After such training, which of the mature soldiers will be loose? Which one doesn't already have a sense of calmness in him?
Just like the newly-arrived soldiers on the monster battlefield this time, even though they are still young on the face, which one of them has reached the seventh level or even higher?
Among the people, if your family is not wealthy enough, don't you know how much material and financial resources it will cost to raise a seventh-level child?
Is it possible that building a car behind closed doors by yourself is the same as being put into a furnace to temper yourself?
You also don't need to worry about problems such as if your child has very low combat talents and will not be able to adapt after joining the army and becoming a soldier.
Because soldiers do not only have one option to fight. If they really see that you have no fighting talent, they will not throw you into the battlefield to be consumed.
How to maximize the value of all people is not a matter of individuals and families, but a matter of collective and national means.
Others are equally good at it, and there is always one that suits you.
Besides, if all the funds are tried and none of them are suitable for you, it only means that you are not suitable, and it is nothing more than asking you to retire. Don't you still have the qualifications to return home and replace your parents?
Can't you also try changing careers?
It is because there are so many roads to take that our army can have such a huge number at all times, and our parents are very happy to send their children into it for training.
Isn't this advantage continued in the world of Once Upon a Time?
Don't 80% of the latest generation of children in the entire Once Upon a Time world want to join it now?
If there was no reference recognized by them before them, and no data of their own statistics, would such a phenomenon be possible?
Don't they know that when they connect to the heavens, the first generation actually belongs to the sacrificed generation?
They know it very well, but they also know that this is inevitable.
Sometimes it's not something you can just think about, nor can it be transformed immediately with help and support.
At that time, when the Huang Feihong world was connected to the heavens, how many people in the first generation were literate?
You even know the Chinese characters, so what's the point of giving you the exercises?
Is it possible to take care of everyone?
Shouldn't the first approach be literacy?
At that time, the support army formed by the Yanhuang Alliance did exactly this, and it took several years before it could be considered a success.
This success cannot be said to be 100%, which is impossible, but it is still clear that it is more than 90%.
But even if it exceeds 90%, how many of them are already elderly?
Even if the skills are given to them and even if they are taught how to practice, it is difficult for many of these elderly people to be able to climb calmly.
Aren't most of them stuck at the third or fourth level?
At this time, it is not that there is no way to break these stuck bottlenecks, but it is a question of how much resources need to be invested in order to achieve it, and whether it is worthwhile.
The reason why the first generation of Once Upon a Time in the World was sacrificed is because when we weighed it at the time, everyone thought it was not cost-effective, and it was not clear that if you invest, you will definitely gain something. Why can't you just wait for surprises?
How significant is that?
As a result, these resources were invested in the second generation, and more of the first generation were pulled away to build the world of Once Upon a Time.
At the time, they didn't have much idea about it, and they never thought it was a big deal, because compared to their past, it was already a world away.
But now, they more or less have an answer to this, and they don't think this is a mistake.
As a result, they have gained the respect of generations after them. Even if they are now very old, their descendants still call them "grandfather" one by one.
They have set a good example for those who come after them. If they know they are not good enough, they should step down early. Instead of occupying most of the resources just because they are not good enough, they should step down and cultivate and tap resources for those who come after them.
You have to admit that most of the time, role models are more powerful than you think.
These 'inheritances', over time, will become a convention, or become part of cultural customs.
Are there too many situations like this in our history?
It cannot be said that all the genes that are engraved deep in our bone marrow came from this way, but we must also admit that many of them were formed this way.
This is true of the world of Once Upon a Time, and the same is true of the Kung Fu world linked to Liu Haolong's land in the middle of the sea.
Those who are not inherently gifted, such as those like Ah Xing who have their own cultivation, or scholars who have their own talents, or whose talents exceed those of most people, are actually more or less their subordinates. A generation has made sacrifices.
Isn't it the same on Liu Hao's earth?
During the initial period of spiritual energy recovery, such as Liu Hao's father's generation, as long as they are still alive today, can't most people just 'sit' in the rear?
Compared with Liu Hao's generation, their average cultivation level is no longer necessary to know the answer clearly without statistics.
Their original number should have been equal to that of Liu Hao's generation, but what about now?
It's hard to predict whether there will still be one-tenth of Liu Hao's generation.
It wasn't because they didn't have enough lifespan that they died, but because they were the ones who were at the forefront in the beginning. The mortality rate at that time was not as high as usual. At that time, we humans still had to look at the faces of the monsters. Is it the same?
Now, there is no need for them to continue to bear the burden at the front. In fact, they are not strong enough to bear such a heavy burden.
But they are still contributing their own value to the home front, either as teachers imparting knowledge in a certain school, or simply as farmers, but who will give them a look? Who doesn't know how to respect them?
