- 485. 16. A society without money and transactions
After getting off the rail transit, what appeared in front of Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei was a huge and vast city.
All kinds of inside the city are made of an alloy glowing with golden luster. The city’s buildings are towering, and the architectural style is like streamlined towers. Between these towers, there are countless high or low rails and viaducts. Connected, countless vehicles with runes etched on the surface are suspended on these tracks and viaducts, shuttled back and forth.
Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei were swarmed by the crowd, and followed them down from the rail platform of this city to a place similar to the exit of the station.
“Here here.”
The blue-skinned youth who was sitting across from the two, with a very warm and talkative attitude, stood near the exit and waved to them.
The two walked over, and the blue youth enthusiastically invited them:
“I’m going to participate in the Ascension Ceremony, we might as well go together for a while.”
Bai Qiuran agreed, and Tang Ruowei followed Bai Qiuran, listening to his attitude.
So the three of them got together again and walked out of the exit together.
Outside the exit is the lowest level of the city, but it is still busy and prosperous. There are spacious and flat roads on the ground. There are sidewalks and underground streets for pedestrians on both sides of the road.
On both sides of the road, under the huge streamlined towers, there are countless shops lined up.
In the center of the pillars or towers on both sides, you can occasionally see huge light screens. Inside the light screens, a serious face full of iron and blood, a puppet with a passionate accent that I don’t know if it’s specially synthesized. He wrote an advertisement about the so-called Ascension Instrument.
“Selast is worthy of being one of the largest cities in the world.”
The blue youth said as he walked:
“I heard that the Mai Mai biscuits made here are particularly crispy, huh? Come whatever you say, there is a shop selling biscuits in front of you.”
After all, he walked straight, and there was indeed a shop with all kinds of noodles not far in front. The blue youth walked into the shop, and in the cabinet near the shop door he picked up a lightly cyan-colored one by himself. The flatbread came out, and without paying, I opened my mouth and delivered it to my mouth.
“Well, it smells so good.”
He took a big bite of the cake, then said vaguely as he chewed.
The blue-skinned youth ate the cake three times, and then asked Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei if they wanted one.
The two refused to say that they were full, and the blue-skinned youth walked out and led them to move forward-he had no intention of paying, and no one from the shop here came out to stop him.
Does this civilized shop just eat and take it?
Bai Qiuran was surprised, but on the outside, he looked at the shop and saw that there were many blue-skinned races in the shop. He went straight in, grabbed the food and ate it, and wiped it with the tissue next to it. After wiping his hands and mouth, he left without paying.
He looked around again and found that in all the shops around, whether it was a shop selling daily necessities, drinks, expensive accessories, or even pistols, the blue-skinned people went straight in and selected their own things. Take it and leave.
It’s as if they don’t have the concept of currency and transaction at all.
And in that shop, there are also many people of the blue race who wear clerk costumes and work as clerk in the shop. However, there are no cashiers among them, just serving as a reception and introduction.
Their work seems to come as they want, leave as they want, and Bai Qiuran has seen waiters in the same shop walk into the backstage at different times at different times, change the clothes of the clerk, and then leave the store as if they want to.
It seems that when they come out to work as a clerk, it’s just a spice in their lives, just like those who have a few suites at home to collect rents, and they don’t have to worry about eating at home and waiting for the gangsters to have enough, and occasionally come out to find a job.
For ordinary people, looking for a job is to live, but for them, the meaning of looking for a job is just “find something to do”.
As for this blue skin tribe, it seems that the entire race is living in this way.
Facing such a situation, Bai Qiuran also had to praise from the bottom of his heart.
This requires the material production capacity of the entire society to overflow to a great extent, and the moral and ideological qualities of the people in the entire society must reach a very high level.
Otherwise, no matter how high material productivity is, there will always be people who want to make everything their own private property. After all, people’s greed has no bottom line.
Bai Qiuran doesn’t believe in human nature very much. He feels that human nature is inherently good, but it also carries the original evil. Babies will get close to their parents, but they will also torture and kill the bugs that are close to him without feeling guilty.
The chaos is unknown, there is good and evil is human nature, and big trees must have dead branches, and many people must have idiots. Therefore, Bai Qiuran believes that the extremely high moral standards make these blue-skinned people’s lives so harmonious, it is better to believe. It is a more powerful force that sets the rules and enforces their behavior.
Moreover, these blue-skinned people do not work, so the question of where this society has such high productivity can also make sense.
With regard to the civilization form under the rule of the puppet civilization, Bai Qiuran gradually had a prototype in his heart, but he hadn’t seen many aspects, so he was not in a hurry to make a conclusion.
In any case, the material living standards of these blue-skinned people are enough for the fairy world to study hard and have been fighting for tens of thousands of years.
The venue of the Ascension Ceremony was chosen at the top of the city. Bai Qiuran and the blue youth went directly to a shop selling private vehicles, and drove a vehicle along the tracks and viaducts towards Ascent. Go to the venue of the ceremony.
However, the blue-skinned youth didn’t seem to be very anxious. He seemed to be full of interest in the city of Thurst. The group of people stopped and went along the way. The blue-skinned youth touched a lot of things and put them on the transportation, and Bai Qiuran also walked along. Some things with simple rune structure.
This civilization seems to stipulate that the goods “purchased” from the store must not be maliciously damaged, but Bai Qiuran naturally does not follow these rules. He took advantage of the blue-skinned youth not to pay attention, and disassembled everything with poor quality. In addition to the internal rune structure, the superficial alarms and precautions in the product are of no use to him.
After Bai Qiuran quietly took apart all the things that could be taken apart in Tang Ruowei’s contemptuous look, the vehicles gradually came to the top of the city.
Countless tracks and bridges meander, in the center and the highest point of the city, they converge into a huge disc. The disc is full of blue people in this world, and between them, there seems to be a high platform. , There were several tall golden puppets standing on the stage.
There is the scene of the Ascension Ceremony.
