Chapter 336 Inflated ambition, credit and currency
Ren Zhong spent ten minutes "digesting" this breaking news.
During this period, the expression on his face changed many times, sometimes confused and melancholy, sometimes with bright eyes.
After a long time, Ren Zhong finally regained his senses and asked cautiously: "So, President, what are your next plans? What role should someone like me play?"
He seemed to have run out of ideas, but he was full of expectations for the future.
Ying Hao smiled, "On the surface, this seems to be a disaster, but fortunately, it leaves us enough time to adjust and we can make repairs. Currently, I am urgently allocating resources to adjust the structure of the ship's brain center in a timely manner. Yuanxing Military Industry can
The artificial transformation of all ships will be completed within fifteen years, with little loss in carrying capacity, and the Great Migration will not be seriously affected."
Ren Zhong gave a thumbs up, "As expected of the president."
"My side is stable only because this is the high-level structure of Origin Star society. As I said before, there will definitely be earth-shaking changes at the bottom. I am no longer sure about the combination of the changes in the civil system and the collapse of the 'net'
What kind of chain reaction will be triggered when we come together. I don't know how many people will die in the end, but that's not important. I came to you this time to tell you some new situations."
Ying Hao first told Ren Zhong that due to the abnormal performance of "Net", the nine frozen elders had awakened and formed the top cabinet.
Ying Hao himself is also a member of the top cabinet.
At a cabinet meeting, he briefly met his ancestor.
Talking about this matter, Ying Hao said: "Before this, the total time I met my ancestors in my life was less than twenty hours. In my memory, I am full of awe of him. They seemed to be omnipotent, and every day
After waking up every time, they could control the overall situation in the shortest time and make absolutely correct important decisions. I once thought that it was because of their talents that they created the nine major groups and fought their way out of the competition. In the end,
Completed the rule of the entire Source Star. But..."
At this point, Ying Hao seemed hesitant to speak.
Ren Zhong asked: "But what?"
"Through my contact with the ancestor this time, I found that although he seemed calm on the surface, in fact, after it was determined that the failure of the 'net' could not be repaired, his will wavered. Moreover, we waited for a full two hours.
, and I didn’t wait for them to give clear instructions.”
Ren Zhong nodded slightly, but he understood Ying Hao's state of mind at this time, and he felt that the god he had always been in awe of was suddenly disillusioned.
Ying Hao finally realized that Elder Frozen's almost prophetic decision-making ability was not their own ability, but was more based on the mobilization of information from the "Net".
Once the "net" was lost, the nine frozen elders immediately lost their "divinity" and showed the same fragility and incompetence as ordinary people.
Most people become aware of the existence of the “net”, usually after the watch system is built.
Current facts prove that the "net"'s control and influence on Yuanxing was earlier than the nine major companies, and also earlier than the first year of the New Yuanli.
At first, these nine companies seemed to have fought their way out of the siege through normal business competition, but now it seems that these nine people relied entirely on the "Internet" from the beginning, and finally created the nine companies that changed the shape of civilization.
This process may seem accidental but is actually inevitable.
"Let me tell you about some of the next important decisions. They require the complete consolidation of the military structure. The core military factories and almost all professional soldiers will be gathered near all cities. Level five and above in each county and town
Citizens can enter various cities nearby. Each city will be designated as a safe zone, war will be absolutely prohibited, and any non-professional soldiers will be prohibited from approaching with weapons."
Ren nodded, "This is very reasonable. When the situation is unclear, you can naturally rest easy by controlling the army. Shrinking the population structure can also minimize the cost of public security management. The lives of deserted people are not important anyway. But in various counties and towns,
And how will the deserted people outside the town be dealt with?"
"Promote autonomy and restart the era of walled cities. Completely relax controls. At the same time, secretly promote war. The ultimate goal is to reduce the population of the entire Source Star to less than 5 billion within twenty years. When everyone is almost dead, there will be no need to deal with it.
.”
Ren Zhong's pupils shrank sharply, "That human brain..."
"Including your Spark Military, companies in the entire hunter industry chain will receive a large number of orders in the near future. The association will increase the number of hunters tenfold within three years to ensure the efficiency of harvesting human brains."
"President, what do you think of this matter?"
"In line with my expectations. The law of the jungle is the best mechanism for rapid survival of the fittest."
Ren Zhong: "So, President, what do you need me to do?"
"I hope you won't hide in the city and maintain your expansion speed. I will also give you huge support. As for what you need to do specifically, I haven't figured it out yet."
Ren nodded to show understanding, "Okay."
In fact, there is no need for Ying Haoming to say it, even if he has a heavy responsibility, he understands.
Without the supervision of "Net", Elder Frozen's control has declined, and the importance of military industrial enterprises has instantly risen to a new stage. The ambitions of Ying Hao, the current head of Yuanxing Military Industry, have expanded.
He is no longer satisfied with just controlling one Yuanxing military enterprise, he wants to be the founder of the next stage of the entire Yuanxing civilization.
Ren Zhong had already guessed that he was not Ying Hao's only pawn.
He wouldn't even ask why Ying Hao trusted him so much.
Since the actual controller of Yuanxing Military Industry dares to do it, he must have a fault tolerance rate.
"President, actually I still have something unclear."
"you say."
Ren Zhong: "I want to know why the Great Migration is necessary. Why do we have to go to the Empire? Can't we live well in the Source Star System?"
When Ying Hao heard this, he laughed, "That's because you haven't been exposed to the stars and the sea outside. You can't imagine what it feels like to give an order and have hundreds of millions of fleets obey your orders. If there was no freezing technology, maybe
I will also be satisfied with living in a corner, but we have it. Time and distance are not problems for us. As long as people have desires, they will want to control more resources and control the destiny of more people."
Ren Zhong: “But we can also expand to other places?”
"Impossible. The source star Sun is a lone star separated from the civilization system. The planets worthy of development in the nearby star areas are all the territory of the empire. I can only tell you that ten thousand years of history is not the truth. We originally came from
The remnants of the empire, the empire is originally our homeland. Do you understand? Whether it is in terms of emotions, development space, or higher pursuits, we must return to our homeland."
Ren Zhong nodded heavily, "That's it."
"Furthermore, this is also an order from the empire. We must not refuse. Rejecting the signs of the empire is tantamount to rebellion. We have no choice. The only choice we can make is what role we can play after we return. The task is heavy, I can see it.
You, like me, also have ambitions. You are below me now, but when you return to the empire, I won't mind if you climb to a higher position than me in the empire's system."
Ren Zhong frowned slightly: "The empire still has enemies?"
"Of course, otherwise why would we send a Pioneer spacecraft to develop the resources of the Source Star in the first place?"
Ren Zhong: "If the purpose is for resources, then I don't think it is necessary to kill all the desolate people. Materials are resources, and talents are also resources. President, you have also seen that there are nearly twenty level five professionals under my banner, and three hundred
There are more than four level four professionals. These are all things that happened in just over five months when I took over Spark Town. Facts have proved that as long as the deserters are given the appropriate opportunities, the potential of the current deserters is not inferior to that of the citizens.
"
"In a life without competition, citizens have become rotten. The future of Yuanxing does not belong to the rotten citizens, but only to the part of all Yuanxing people who are still making progress. I can say responsibly that most of the desolate people
They are all highly motivated because their starting point is too low. This is also what you have always thought, President. So, why do you kill everyone when you leave? Isn’t it a good source of human resources to keep these people?"
Ying Hao shook his head, "The empire has a huge population base that you can't imagine. The population potential of a mere galaxy cannot play a decisive role. What's more, according to our screening method, we could have taken away more than 90%
The higher genes. The rest are garbage, and if they are gone, they are gone. The Empire never has too many human brains. This will also determine the treatment we receive when we return to the Empire."
"I see, I understand." Ren nodded.
Ying Hao: "Actually, if the 'net' was still there, based on what you just said, you would be sentenced to death. In addition, I also know that you are lying."
Ren Zhong was stunned: "Ah? How do you say that?"
"What you really want is absolute control. You are the dictator who controls everything, and you don't really want to give everyone a chance."
Ren Zhong was silent for a long time, then said casually: "You saw through it. But the net is no longer there, and I was just talking casually."
Ying Hao: "But I know what you really think."
"That's because I trust you, President."
Ying Hao: "I trust you too. Okay, if nothing happens, I'll leave first. I will evacuate all the staff in the arsenal outside the town within two days. I will leave everything inside to you.
.”
"Thank you, President!"
…
Ren Zhong sold a fatal flaw to Ying Hao, but he did not suffer any loss.
After sending away this restless little popsicle, Ren Zhong began to think about what the ultimate goal he really wanted to achieve was.
He got a lot of important information today.
There is an essential difference between him and Ying Hao.
Ying Hao's purpose in creating changes was to gain power after leaving the empire.
The arduous revolution is not that far away, it is just for the ordinary people's lives that I can take care of.
At the same time, Ren Zhong also realized that revolution may not be as simple as imagined.
Even if he could use the greater potential of the Desolate Man to form an invincible army and complete the change of power within the Source Star, he would still be unable to escape the threat of the Empire, let alone resist the suppression of the Empire.
He also understood the empire's true need for the Origin Star.
It's the resources.
These resources include mineral deposits, high-quality population, Ruin beast chips, integrated circuit raw materials, human brains, scientific and technological achievements, combat power, and may even include high-level Ruin beasts that everyone only knows their names but never see their true form.
Then, if Ren Zhong disguises the revolution as a change of power within the Source Star and uses other methods to make up for the lack of resources caused by insufficient human brain production, there is a good chance that he will gain the empire's understanding.
Even if such a revolution is still not complete enough, it can at least leave a spark of fire to the humans of Origin Star.
Things have developed to this point, and Ren Zhong doesn’t think he will fail.
First, he has the ability to resurrect and reopen.
Second, he has obtained enough information.
Third, on the surface, it seems that the citizen class has an absolute advantage in military power. However, due to the corruption of the system, the military strength of the citizen class has actually remained constant for a long time and is a stock. But the desert people are different. The population base of the desert people is
The ones who are equally huge and still alive are basically the stronger ones who have already been initially eliminated in the law of the jungle. The Desolate Man only needs some reasonable education and better resource allocation to quickly explode in strength. The Desolate Man is an incremental
.
Fourth, judging from Ying Hao’s words, even if the citizen class has access to ten thousand years of history, it is still in a state of being deceived. No one is willing to find out that they have been living in a lie. There must be more inadequacies in the real history.
As long as outsiders can dig out the historical truth, it will definitely create divisions among the citizens and tear apart the other party's base.
Fifth, in the citizen circle, those who sympathize with the desolate people are not alone. There are many people like the Ma family and their daughters. And these people are usually more capable than ordinary useless citizens, and these people can be won over.
Sixth, without the surveillance of the "net", he can indeed spread more ideas. His ideas represent more advanced production relations, which is a historical inevitability. History will definitely be on his side.
After determining these five core ideas, we can eliminate the difficulties of the past.
He first summoned Ju Qingmeng and other core subordinates.
"Three things. First, let Wen Lei lead the graduates from the military industry sector to the factory under Yuanxing Military Industry, learn from the people there, and prepare to take over the factory in two days. Second, rename our token to Spark Coin
, and rebuild the economic system within the Eleven Towns in the shortest possible time. Third, in our foreign trade, we also promote Star Fire Coins and refuse to barter. I will immediately go to Liaoyuan County to conclude a trade with Liaoyuan County Government
Agreement. I believe that our currency will be popular in nearby areas for the simple reason that I have people, money, supplies, and credit."
Just as Ren Zhong said, two hours later, he reached a trade agreement with Liaoyuan County Government.
Obviously, Liaoyuan County has received the autonomy order, and many citizens above Level 5 are packing up their belongings and preparing to run away.
These people will take away most of the wealth in Liaoyuan County, leaving behind basically fourth-level citizens and below.
Ren Zhong hardly spent any troops or money, and he became the richest person and the strongest force in the entire Yangsheng City, except for a few core families in Yangsheng City.
In the evening, Ren Zhong received an unexpected and reasonable electromagnetic communication call from Ma Xiacheng, director of the underlying logic algorithm auxiliary department of Shenzhen Information Group.
"It's a heavy responsibility, do you want to become a seventh-level citizen?"
Ma Xiacheng's first sentence got straight to the point.
