Chapter 43: The number of anxious people in society will increase again
"Thanks to modern technology, it has brought another universal benefit to mankind, but if the Yuanyang problem is not solved, it is still impossible to increase human life span by seventy or eighty years.
It can extend the life span of wealthy people by more than ten years at most.
In addition, the breakthrough of this new technology will generally increase anxiety and competition among people around the world."
Li Duanyang said to Qin Linlin.
"Ah?" Qin Linlin was stunned, unable to keep up with Li Duanyang's strange mind, "Aren't you happy?"
"I'm so happy. I can make money and buy the life-extending medicine created by this technology. At least it can extend the life span of myself and my family by more than ten years. If I can find a way to increase Yuanyang, I might be able to increase it by seventy or eighty years."
Years of life, how could you not be happy?
However, for ordinary people, this new technological breakthrough is not necessarily good news.
It is conceivable that once a new drug is produced, it will inevitably sell for a sky-high price at first. Then the price of the drug gradually drops, but it will still remain at a very high price for a long time, and it requires ordinary people to work hard to obtain it.
In the future, when old friends meet again, the first question they will probably ask is, have you bought the longevity-enhancing medicine?
Who wouldn’t be anxious about such a problem?
Try your best to get yourself a life-prolonging medicine."
Qin Linlin tilted her head and imagined: "Oh~, it seems like this is really the case."
“The birth of every human invention will inevitably bring new pursuits and anxieties.
The advent of bicycles has made the dividing line between rich and poor people whether they have bicycles or not.
The advent of automobiles has made the dividing line between the rich and the have-nots become the car ownership.
In the future, the advent of this life-enhancing drug will make the dividing line between rich and poor people become the dividing line between those who have used this life-enhancing drug and those who have not.
You see, soon, land and air vehicles, and simulated robots with thinking and intelligence that are much closer to humans will also come out, and they will become the dividing line between the rich and the poor.
The atmosphere of competition and anxiety in the entire society will become increasingly intense.
Isn’t it scary that the three most important things for young people to start a family will become longevity-enhancing medicine, land and air vehicles, and robots?”
What Li Duanyang said is true.
Because these things have already happened in his previous life, and since the wheel of history has suddenly accelerated for nearly fifty years, things like life-extending drugs are about to appear now, and other new technological breakthroughs are also about to appear.
is coming (maybe many things are technically fully mature, but are just controlled by high-level society), such as robots that are close to human intelligence and flexibility, such as the widespread use of land and air vehicles... all of this will
Set off a new round of anxiety and competition for the entire human race!
The two of them fell into silence at the same time.
The strong wind outside the car window is still blowing non-stop, and the social trends brought about by various new technological achievements will inevitably sweep across the entire human society just like this strong wind!
After a while, Qin Linlin asked Li Duanyang again about Yuanyang's inability to support human beings to live for another seventy or eighty years. Li Duanyang explained this problem to her.
"Is it possible for humans to increase their Yuan Yang?" Qin Linlin asked again.
"Yes, but this breakthrough depends on traditional Chinese medicine, and it cannot be mass-produced like life-enhancing medicine. After all, Yuanyang is invisible, unlike cells which are tangible.
Once Chinese medicine discusses this issue in the future, this technology will only be in the hands of a very small number of true Chinese medicine practitioners and will not be popularized.
Because such a heaven-defying method cannot be learned by ordinary people, it is too profound and mysterious, and can only exist secretly in some strange people."
Li Duanyang said calmly.
He did not have this method in his previous life, but there were some rumors that some people had this method of increasing Yuanyang.
There is a book called "Huangdi's Foreign Canon", which is different from "Huangdi's Inner Canon". It talks about the way of cultivation, but it was lost for a while. It is rumored that it is available abroad. If it is also available in China, it can only be secretly mastered by a very small number of people.
It is in the hands of aristocratic families and Taoist sects.
Li Duanyang has a very strong desire to obtain this "Huangdi Wai Jing". Now he has opened up the Zhenqi Little Zhoutian, but if he wants to realize the Alchemy Zhoutian in the next step, it will be difficult without the guidance of ancient cultivation techniques.
Realized.
And if he could enter the Alchemy Zhoutian realm, Li Duanyang felt that he would probably find a way to increase the innate Yuanyang.
The wind continued to blow, and Li Duanyang and Qin Linlin returned to the Qin family villa in such a strong wind.
At this time, I browsed the Internet again, and there were already overwhelming discussions about the emergence of this new achievement and the upcoming life-enhancing medicine.
This wind is much stronger than the natural wind outside, sweeping across the world!
Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin didn't look at anything strange when their precious granddaughter Qin Linlin came back in Li Duanyang's car. If Li Duanyang didn't come back, their granddaughter rarely came back. Recently, Qin Linlin has been persuading grandpa and grandma to hire a nanny.
Therefore, they were very happy about Li Duanyang's return.
Li Duanyang checked the bodies of Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin respectively, and gave them both massages. During this time, Qin Linlin told her grandparents about the possibility of the longevity-enhancing medicine being released soon.
"Grandpa, Madam, when this life-enhancing medicine comes out, my family will buy you two pills first, so that you will be young again!" Qin Linlin said with a beaming smile.
"Whatever we eat, you eat first!" Aunt Qin said with a smile.
She doesn't really believe this.
The next day, when Li Duanyang and Qin Linlin arrived at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, they could hear discussions about this new scientific and technological breakthrough and life-enhancing medicine everywhere. Some people were excited and some were indifferent, but this trend is really spreading everywhere in the world.
It was blowing in the corners.
Li Duanyang and Qin Linlin were much calmer about this matter.
Li Duanyang was not too excited when he heard about this matter. After all, he had already experienced this matter in his previous life. What he was thinking about was to wait for the life-enhancing medicine to come out and wait for the price of the medicine to drop in a few years.
, buy two for my parents first.
Therefore, he also has to make good money.
Qin Linlin's family had no shortage of money to buy medicine, and when Li Duanyang said it could only increase her life span by more than ten years, she was not so excited.
After the strong wind passed, thunderstorms began in Chang'an. The dull thunder rolled in the gloomy sky. The heavy rain poured down, pulling up layers of rain curtains between the sky and the earth, nourishing everything and venting people's various emotions.
fire.
The number of pedestrians on the street has decreased significantly. Apart from vehicles, there are not many people walking with umbrellas.
But the hospital is still overcrowded. Doctors, nurses and patients' families are stomping around in the corridors. This is the normal and usual busy state of the hospital.
Amidst the sound of rain, Li Duanyang hurried to the corner of the hospital stairs with his mobile phone playing music. He received a call from his mother.
