Capital, auditorium.
This is a very large meeting of more than 700 people. All the core leaders of the various ministries from all over the Xia Kingdom are here, and even the Daoist Academy has sent people to listen. Mo Haofeng was the head of the Taoist Association, and the old god was there to get a front row seat.
At the beginning of the meeting, we first reported the latest reports issued by international organizations.
Everyone knows that there are 195 countries and 35 regions in the world (2017 data), and the new situation presented as a result is shocking.
As far as Europe is concerned, small countries like Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Luxembourg will be wiped out directly. Total annihilation means that even a government-in-exile cannot be formed, and only a few surviving people are left to flee to other countries for refuge.
A medium-sized country with a little military strength also lost a large area of land and population, and huddled in a few urban belts centered on the capital to survive. The prestige of the government has long since disappeared, and the Extraordinary Association and the big chaebol jointly control the order.
If the technology system is not still there, it will return to the city-state era overnight.
Military powers like Germany, Gaul, and Britain, with extraordinary double insurance, oh, even though Gaul didn't win any battles...they all formed a situation similar to that of Xia. The government is completely hidden behind the scenes, forces from all sides are rising, and technology and extraordinary power centered on new resources are advancing by leaps and bounds.
There are also many small countries that responded quickly, took the initiative to marry, and asked for protection from big countries.
These days, international law is basically cold, and people ignore it completely. As a result, many countries took the opportunity to expand their territories and annex neighboring countries.
Those who benefited pretended to be cheap, and those who lost their profits made a lot of noise, and almost the whole world was bickering. But the facts are set, the small country is destroyed, and even the legal government does not exist, and there is no land, so it is natural to be the first to get it.
Another example is East Asia.
Countries such as Universe, Dongying, Xinpang, Yue, and Burma will either disappear or regress. Xia Guo drew his sword and looked around in a daze, surrounded by scorched earth and a group of wild monkeys jumping around.
Africa is the most obvious, the concept of the country is almost completely erased, and it has completely fallen back to the tribal age. Powerful black witches and priests exist like gods in the African continent.
Sam's country is more funny.
Cults are blooming everywhere, and every organization knows something, but it happens to be very bad, and it is difficult to prevent even bullets from shooting headshots. This creates an embarrassment:
The government seems to be in a state of desperation, killing flies every day, but the authority is still there.
The extraordinary forces seem to be in a hurry, nagging and nagging all day long, but they dare not really provoke a dispute.
So much so that the people of the country of Sam are also very embarrassed, as if life has not changed, but various low-profile heroes from Marvel and DC show up to cause trouble. Moreover, their minds are not normal, and some convene people on the Internet, planning to go to a place where the birds don't shit, and build a so-called utopia.
Some fought against injustice, punished the evil and promoted the good, and lived to become the current king of Haibian.
Others sneaked into the political arena, colluded with capital, and tried to run for president in vain. Come on, even a real estate guy can be president, why can't I play magic
In general, in fact, in one sentence: nearly half of the world's 7.5 billion people died.
…
"Nine years ago... Oh, I heard that a calendar was created on the Internet called Xianyuanli. It hasn't been officially recognized yet, but I think it's very good and easy to understand.
Nine years ago, that is, in the second year of the Xianyuan calendar, the government developed Tianzhu Mountain, and it was found that the reserves of the first and second grade spiritual mines were about 25,400 tons.
In the fifth year of the Xianyuan calendar, the government developed the Tianshan Mountains, and discovered the third-grade spiritual mine and the rare minerals such as the black ice mine for the first time.
Afterwards, environmental changes in countries around the world began to advance rapidly, entering a four-year period of great suffering, and Xia Kingdom was no exception. And when the suffering is over, we finally get a good consolation, that is, the amount of available resources has increased dramatically, reaching an unbelievable number.
Not long ago, our comrades in charge of the development and construction of the Yellow Sea sent back great news that there are 162 million tons of various spiritual ore reserves in the near land of the Yellow Sea alone.
At the same time, the exploration of the East China Sea and the South China Sea has also made progress, and some seabed deposits have been gradually discovered. Coupled with the distribution of medium and small veins in various places, according to our rough estimate, the total reserves can reach 1.143 billion tons, and there are as many as 47 types! "
Buzz buzz!
The voice just fell, and the audience was excited. I have heard some gossip before, but the excitement of being personally certified at this time is incomparable.
One billion tons! Throwing it in ordinary minerals may not even be enough, but this is spirit ore!
"Among the 47 kinds of spirit mines, spirit stones naturally account for the majority. As early as when the spirit stone mine was first discovered, someone suggested that it could be used as a special currency in the future and allowed to circulate in the market. It was very reasonable to think about it at the time , but after careful research, we decided to use Lingshi Mine as a reserve resource, and we do not advocate or support it as a currency in circulation.”
"Buzz!"
In an instant, there was a stronger discussion in the audience than before. The monks present were also taken aback, but their minds had not yet turned around.
"Currency has a basic property, that is, the value will not disappear. You spend a dollar, I earn a dollar, and this dollar is still there. But Lingshi is different. Its biggest function is to use it. I earned a piece of Lingshi. I used it up and then it was gone.
Like coal and oil, spiritual mines are consumable resources.
Now it is said that the spiritual energy is revived, but when was the spiritual energy born? No one knows, maybe even the two children on Phoenix Mountain can't tell.
Let's do the calculations, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the end of the Ming Dynasty, minus an integer, and count as four thousand years.
In other words, Reiki was born for four thousand years, and it was revived after another five hundred years of brewing. Many people think, four thousand years is too much time. We can't control the next reincarnation, so we must vigorously develop it, but I want to remind one thing.
In ancient times, the population was sparse, productivity was low, and there were even fewer practitioners. There are only tens of millions of people in a dynasty, what about monks? Can there be hundreds of people
The ancient imperial court and ordinary people could not use those resources, which became a kind of protection invisibly. It is different in modern times. Although those spiritual mines are strange, we can also smelt and forge them.
We have a population of more than one billion, and we have such a developed industrial system that can be applied in various aspects, and the number of monks will also increase. If you really want to go full power, 1.143 billion tons, ha ha, I'm afraid it will be empty in a hundred years!
A sustainable development strategy is applicable in any era. Now that we have ushered in a precious period of peace, don't squander it recklessly and take a long-term view, because when your next generation, the next generation, you may suffer from the disaster of resource depletion... "
After speaking, the audience was silent.
Sikong Chan sent by the Taoist Academy and Mo Laodao looked at each other with complicated thoughts.
If an individual proposes that we should pay attention to protecting the cultivation resources instead of fishing in a dry marsh, it is definitely a joke and it will not cause waves.
It can only be effective if it is formulated by the state and implemented layer by layer. Because most of the mine veins are in the hands of the government and practice sects.
As mentioned earlier, Taoism does not talk about cause and effect, but about responsibility.
Bearing the burden has two meanings: in one's lifetime, to bear one's own good and evil retribution; and the impact of the actions of the predecessors on the people and nature of the future.
Bearing a burden is like throwing a stone into water, the bigger the stone, the bigger the waves. Therefore, the treasures from Fenghuang Mountain are never done absolutely, only one or two are taken, and the rest are left to future generations.
After roughly speaking, the specific content follows, mainly in several directions:
One is medicine, making full use of new resources, researching various new drugs, and overcoming intractable diseases.
The second is industry, whether those spirit ores can replace the existing rare metals, or whether they can play a role in new technology projects.
The third is education, employment and social security. Now it is equivalent to recuperating and recuperating after the war. These three points are the best way to stabilize people's hearts.
The fourth is agriculture.
The fifth is economy.
In short, the meeting lasted for seven days. After the plenary meeting, there were group discussions, and one policy after another was formulated, which was hailed as the development vane of the 2.0 era.
…
"Oh? They didn't even recognize spirit stones as currency."
On Phoenix Mountain, Gu Yu was slightly surprised. After thinking about it, he said with a smile, "It's actually not bad. After all, it's better to save one spirit stone."
"Then what about our Fangshi?" Xiao Jin asked.
"Didn't you listen to what they said, if they don't advocate or support it, then we don't advocate or support it either."
The official word game is easy to play, and it is not forbidden.
Because they know that even if it is explicitly prohibited, it will not stop monks from trading privately, so they simply put on a sincere attitude and let you understand it yourself.
"Cut, boring!"
Xiao Jin snorted, and said again: "By the way, I just received a few letters, all of which are from abroad, take a look."
"What letter?"
Gu Yu took it and looked at it. One was from Australia, one was from South America, one was from Europe, and one was sent in his own name.
The content of the first three letters was similar, and he was a little confused after reading it, "A business fair? What is this going to do?"
The inscription in Australia is a certain company, the one in South America is a certain sect, and the one in Europe is a certain association. They all put forward an intention to come to Fangshi to do activities to promote their extraordinary products.
That's right, it's a product!
These two words made Gu Yu feel very awkward, but they made sense. The fusion of modern thinking and ancient practice is the most interesting thing.
"They are already in the territory. You nod, and they will come over immediately. If you don't agree, they will change places."
"Come on then, I want to see you too."
Gu Yu agreed, and picked up the last one.
This is from the country of Sam, and I have met the other party several times, that is, the girl with dripping milk, Andrea, whom I met in a nightclub in Bonn.
After reading this letter, he became more and more weird, and sighed: "The modern practice is really different. Could it be that the era of mercenaries is about to start?"
"What the hell?"
Xiao Jin grabbed the letter and glanced at it, to the effect that the Wicca Sect was in a very bad situation in the country of Sam. They were isolated and helpless, and they would be preyed upon by others at any time.
