This year, the number of stable customers that Star City's Destiny Messenger department has connected with has reached 27.
Two of them are middlemen.
They help the human race connect with customers by extracting intermediary fees, and then extract service fees from them.
For example, each piece of weaponry and equipment was originally charged a service fee of 100 blood stones. After the intermediary merchant connected it, the selling price was still 100 blood stones. However, 10 of the blood stones were taken away by the middleman, and the human race received a profit of 90 blood stones per piece.
.
Feng Qi didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
The foundation of the human race in Destiny City is still shallow, and the most lacking thing is a network of personal connections.
To find the right customers, all you need is a middleman with a large customer base to connect them. It is normal to pay an intermediary fee of 10 blood crystals. From the perspective of resource income, the human race is guaranteed to make a profit.
After all, there is no cost to use the equipment black hole. The more customers you have, the more you earn.
In fact, Feng Qi also thought about bypassing the middlemen and directly connecting with stable customers after having stable customers, so that he could earn an additional 10 blood crystals.
But after analyzing the pros and cons, he gave up the idea.
If the human race wants to become bigger and stronger in Destiny City in the future, it will inevitably have contact with a large number of intermediary traders, and reputation will be very important.
In the outside world, the law of the jungle is strong, and fists are the rule. But in the trading market protected by the rules of Destiny City, force is useless. The most important thing is integrity.
This is the most essential difference between the trading market under the rules and the outside world.
Only by establishing a network of relationships can the future market of the human race grow bigger and bigger.
Choosing immediate interests is undoubtedly killing the goose that lays the goose that lays the egg.
There are still more than a thousand years before the final battle, and long-term interests are obviously more important.
This is also the reason why Feng Qi chose to cooperate with middlemen to expand the market for resource income through profit transfer.
The emergence of equipment black holes has significantly alleviated Star City's shortage of resource consumption.
At this stage, Fengqi has begun to plan for the comprehensive promotion of the spirit beast system.
In order to ensure the smooth development of the spirit beast system, Feng Qi, in addition to setting up spirit animal breeding majors and spirit beast majors in various universities, also decided to distribute spiritual food meals to the people of Star City once a month in the future.
Specific foods include spiritual animal meat, spiritual spring water, low-level spiritual plants, and a series of other spiritual foods that can assist the growth of bloodline potential.
Compared with early human diets, spiritual food has one characteristic, that is, its taste is far superior to ordinary food.
Human beings' definition of delicious food comes from color, aroma, taste, texture, and other factors.
Compared with ordinary food, spiritual food has an extra mysterious feeling. After entering the mouth, the body feels like a land of nectar for a long time. The pores of the body instantly open and start to swallow the spiritual energy bursting out of the spiritual food. It can have a significant effect on the body.
Its nourishing effect brings both physical and mental pleasure.
This is a wonderful feeling that ordinary food cannot bring.
Because of this, people who have enjoyed spiritual food will have a strong desire for spiritual food.
Only three years after the policy was issued, spiritual food restaurants have mushroomed, and enjoying spiritual food meals has become one of the luxurious consumption items for people in Star City.
This food, which was once only available to frontline soldiers or staff of top scientific research institutions, has entered thousands of households and has become a spice in the lives of people in Star City.
In order to meet the people's demand for spiritual food in Star City, all the spiritual fields developed on the front line were planted with high-yield low-level spiritual plants, and spiritual animal breeding farms were also built one after another.
The development of Star City is moving in a better direction.
…
On this day, Feng Qi held the highest meeting of Star City.
Those present were all decision-makers who stood at the top level of power in Star City. The theme of the meeting centered on the reform and upgrading of Star City's industry.
Star City is developing at a rapid pace, and there are many projects that cannot keep up with the development of the times and need to be eliminated.
But the existence of these projects is not entirely meaningless.
For example, Pure Academy, which was established 30 years before the birth of Fengqi, is a low-level university with major majors in music, gardening, animation, etc.
The students who apply for pure colleges and universities are mainly a group of students who cannot enter high-end colleges and universities.
Although these types of schools, similar to pure schools, cannot provide value to the development of civilization, they can solve many employment problems.
Students who graduate from these majors can still find jobs in society.
But today, the construction of Daybreak City is about to begin, and a large number of positions will be created for the construction of Daybreak City. The manpower gap will increase, and there is no need for old and backward universities to continue to exist.
Feng Qi thought about upgrading the majors of these schools and opening new majors in the schools.
But you also face many problems when trying to upgrade.
Many universities themselves do not have the genes to establish new majors.
For example, there are simply not enough teachers in universities to shoulder the burden of opening new majors. It is obviously unrealistic to ask those teachers to suddenly teach knowledge that they have never learned.
Another reason is that the old equipment and teaching buildings in the school do not meet the conditions for new majors to join.
Unless the whole thing is torn down and rebuilt.
If this is done, these old institutions will have no meaning in continuing to exist. It would be better to directly merge and open new institutions.
On the last sacrifice line, Ji He faced a similar problem.
The strategy adopted by Ji He was very simple and crude, and he would eliminate all projects that were incompatible with the development of the new era in a way that would bring infamy. As for those who were eliminated by the times, he would not pay attention to them at all.
Let the torrent of the times swallow up all those who are left behind.
Those years are known as the darkest years of human development.
Feng Qi didn't want to make this timeline so perfect.
He hoped that through reform, through the merger of higher-level universities or the merger between lower-level universities, he hoped to gradually eliminate backward universities by creating new ones.
Doing this can significantly stabilize the hidden dangers that may arise within Star City.
Regarding this issue, Feng Qi elaborated on his thoughts at the Star City Supreme Council.
Although he is the actual controller of Star City, the implementation of specific policies must be implemented by the top decision-makers present.
His main responsibilities are to guide the development of Star City and supervise the progress of the project.
After describing his thoughts in detail, Feng Qi turned his attention to a figure standing at the back of the venue.
This is a young man about 20 years old, with a short hair, his hands intertwined in front of him, standing upright, and listening to him carefully.
This person is none other than Ji He.
Ji He's current identity is one of the executives subordinate to the top decision-maker in Star City. His main job is to supervise the implementation of tasks assigned by the decision-maker and report on the progress of the project.
Ji He's growth was seen by Feng Qi.
In this timeline, although he poured resources into cultivating Ji He, Ji He was unaware of all this.
Feng Qi also did not use his power to allow Ji He to obtain a special channel for promotion.
But Ji He's performance did not disappoint him.
I skipped grades continuously when I was young and was able to learn all the knowledge in a short time.
Since joining Dawn Academy, Ji He has shown wisdom far beyond his peers, and his performance in all aspects has been excellent.
After graduation, relying on his own efforts, he was successfully promoted to an executive under the top decision-making level of Star City in just a few years.
Feng Qi has been able to see Ji He's future.
Not surprisingly, Ji He will soon be able to join the most powerful people in Star City and become a decision-maker after the older generation gradually retires.
Facts have proved that the existence of the Marriage Department is very necessary.
His genius for being able to effectively preserve every timeline continues.
But in terms of personality, Ji He in this timeline has undergone different changes. He is no longer as sharp as before and appears more reserved.
This may be related to the changes in Ji He's growth environment.
Ji He's father was on the previous sacrifice line and left when he was young, but Ji He's parents on this sacrifice line are still alive and gave birth to a younger brother for him.
Among them, Ji He's younger brother is also the focus of Feng Qi's attention.
Regarding the birth of a genius, he always had a guess, believing that it was the genes that were constantly combined and arranged, and the codes that unlocked some of the Pillar God's power locks were arranged, so a genius was born.
But Ji He's younger brother's performance actually seemed a bit ordinary.
If his suspicions were true, it seemed that the resulting genetic code would only work the first time.
But what was the specific truth? Even Wei Wei couldn't give an accurate answer, and Feng Qi didn't think about it in detail.
The focus of his attention was still on Ji He.
Based on Ji He's current performance, he is looking forward to Ji He's performance when he officially ascends to the power decision-making level of Star City.
Perhaps in this timeline, Ji He will bring a more exciting performance.
…
Daybreak 348 years.
This year, Zhou Tianzhe, one of the top decision-makers in Star City, chose to retire due to physical reasons and officially submitted his retirement application to Feng Qi.
After understanding Zhou Tianzhe's situation, Feng Qi allowed Zhou Tianzhe to leave and arranged for Star City's top medical team to recuperate and repair his overworked body.
His departure left a vacancy at Star City's top decision-making level.
The Supreme Council of Star City held a selection meeting for newcomers, and ten executors under the decision-making level became preliminary candidates.
Their age span is 23-52 years old.
The youngest among them is Ji He.
But age is not important in the selection of decision-makers. What matters most is personal ability and contribution to Star City.
When the ten lists were placed in front of Feng Qi's desk, he began to look through them carefully.
He will not lock Ji He in advance just because of Ji He's outstanding performance in the previous timeline. This is unfair to others. If Ji He's personal ability cannot be promoted in this selection, the young man will still have opportunities in the future.
.
The development of this timeline has been affected by the butterfly effect, and many talents have been born that have never appeared in the previous timeline. Maybe there are outstanding newcomers among the other nine who are not weaker than Ji He.
Therefore, he did not participate in this selection, and the final decision was left to other members of the Star City Supreme Council to vote.
But before the voting began, Feng Qi issued a task to the ten people who had prepared. This task would have a greater impact on the selection results.
The requirement of this task is how the currency reform of Star City should be carried out.
After promulgating the task, Feng Qi began to observe the performance of the ten pre-selected people.
Fengqi has actually started preparing for currency reform very early.
In Star City today, Star City Coin is the main currency in circulation, but this currency is gradually no longer recognized by the people of Star City.
This is due to the influence of many factors such as frontline and field studies.
The eyes of the people of Star City were opened, and they saw a broader world unfolding before their eyes.
They believe that Star City Coins have no intrinsic value. They are just a string of numbers and can only be used to purchase ordinary daily necessities. However, the purchase of spiritual ingredients is restricted. Ordinary people can only purchase a limited amount each month.
There is currently no solution to this problem.
In the early days of Star City, a huge amount of currency was released, and a lot of the currency was concentrated in the hands of a few people.
For example, his former student Xu Hongyun, whose family belonged to Suikong Group, had accumulated a lot of wealth.
The currency at that time also corresponded to ordinary commodities, and spiritual ingredients could not be purchased at will. Most of the spiritual ingredients would not flow into the hands of ordinary people.
If the currency is opened to purchase spiritual ingredients at will, it will be even more unfair to ordinary people.
It is also a challenge for Star City’s resource base.
Those people who accumulated wealth early on can easily purchase a large amount of spiritual ingredients, further widening the gap between the rich and the poor.
Under the influence of many factors, the people of Star City are more optimistic about the blood crystal currency.
This currency can be used for cultivation and consumption, or it can be directly connected to the Star City Resource Management Department to purchase goods in Destiny City from the list above, with only a 20% handling fee.
Star City's currency will gradually depreciate with the development of the times, but blood spar does not have this problem.
Therefore, the people of Star City recognize the value of blood crystal stones more.
This is a social problem that Feng Qi sees, and it is also a process that Star City needs to go through in its development.
He needs ten pre-selected people to solve the problems of currency reform and provide good solutions.
Ten people were given a month to prepare, and ten plans were placed on Feng Qi's desk.
Looking through the ten people's solutions, Feng Qi kept nodding in affirmation. The last one he picked up was the solution provided by Ji He.
Half an hour later, a smile appeared on Feng Qi's face.
In his opinion, Ji He's plan is perfect. It not only solves the problem of currency reform, but also solves the problem of the gap between the rich and the poor of the people in Star City, as well as the problem of population growth needs.
Jihe's plan is divided into two policies.
The first is the reform of currency. Ji He believes that the currency of the old system should be gradually phased out and replaced by a new currency anchored by blood spar. The specific name can be chosen at will, for example, it can be called Dawn Coin.
The emergence of this currency can solve two problems.
The first is the recognition of the new currency by the people of Star City. After all, the new currency can be exchanged for blood crystals at the resource management departments in various regions of Star City at any time.
Secondly, there is the issue of resource collection.
Dawn coins are essentially a series of numbers, but they can be exchanged for blood crystals at a price of 1:1.
But blood crystals have weight after all, and are difficult to carry compared to banknotes. This requires Daybreak coins to exist in digital form.
However, the blood crystals anchored to the Dawn Coins in the hands of the people of Star City will still be stored in the resource warehouse of Star City.
One of the problems with modern currency is that people with spiritual resources in their hands are unwilling to exchange the resources for Star City coins because they feel that compared to Star City coins, the spiritual resources in their hands will not depreciate.
If Dawn Coins are launched, the people of Star City will naturally have no pressure to exchange them.
They will most likely exchange the spiritual resources sent home by the frontline soldiers and even valuable spiritual items into Daybreak coins, and at the same time, the spiritual resources in the hands of the people of Star City will be entered into the Star City resource warehouse.
The emergence of this phenomenon is equivalent to providing an insurance for the development of Star City.
If an emergency occurs that requires a large amount of resources to be consumed, the equivalent resources stored in the resource warehouse can be directly transferred to the public for emergency use.
The second policy is about the gap between rich and poor in early wealth and population growth.
The gap between rich and poor has always been a problem since the development of human civilization, including in the pre-catastrophic world.
Ji He believes that Star City should reform the inheritance of wealth and clearly stipulate the rules for inheritance of wealth.
However, wealth cannot be collected directly.
Many people's efforts are to give the next generation a better start. If the wealth they own will be confiscated after their death, there will be no point in continuing to strive.
However, failure to redistribute wealth can easily lead to continued concentration of wealth at the top.
Ultimately, the rich get richer.
Ji He believes that such a plan can be formulated.
Link the inheritance of wealth to the number of children.
For example, A has a wealth of 10 million Dawn Coins, but Star City stipulates that the next generation of all Star City people can only have inheritance rights of up to 1 million Dawn Coins.
In other words, if A does not want his other 9 million wealth to be confiscated after his death, he must have ten children, so that each child can inherit 1 million Daybreak coins.
The appearance of ten children divided the concentration of wealth.
Their next generation will continue to divide their wealth.
This is like a push of grace before a catastrophe, allowing centralized power to continue to be divided.
…
After reading the plan given by Ji He, Feng Qi couldn't help but nod.
Jihe's plan can be described as very detailed.
The currency anchoring reform not only solves the need for new currencies in the new era, but also indirectly allows the excess spiritual resources in the hands of the people of Star City to become insurance for the development of Star City and enter the resource bank of Star City.
Secondly, the wealth redistribution plan can not only ensure the continuous narrowing of the gap between the rich and the poor, but also meet the needs of Star City for population growth.
This plan is simply perfect and solves two important development issues at the same time.
At the end of the penultimate page of the plan, Ji He also mentioned one thing, about the reform and upgrading of Star City's old projects.
Ji He said at the end that development in the new era will always be accompanied by pain, and many unnecessary projects may be able to adopt a one-size-fits-all approach to allow resources to flow to projects that are more beneficial to the development of Star City.
Seeing this, Feng Qi shook his head helplessly.
Ji He's way of solving problems is still the way he is familiar with.
But he would not adopt Ji He's plan.
He understood that what Ji He said was the most effective and direct way to solve this problem.
But doing so will cause turmoil to the entire society, causing many people to become victims of the development of the times.
If he pursues this plan, it will also affect the development of the belief system.
He can't do this evil person.
Turning another page, there were only a few numbers on the last page.
I saw Ji He wrote this paragraph on the last page:
Mr. Feng, you are of great significance to Star City.
Choosing a one-size-fits-all approach will cause many people to be eliminated by the development of the times, which will inevitably affect the construction of the belief growth system. Therefore, I think there needs to be someone to take some of the blame on your behalf and make them become victims of the development of the times.
It is human civilization that will develop in a healthier direction.
…
Seeing this, Feng Qi burst into laughter.
It seems that Ji He in this timeline is still the Ji He he knew, and he always pursues the most direct and effective method.
At such a young age, I have already thought about becoming a victim of the development of the times.
But he didn't want to lose such a talented youngster early.
