Chapter 2404 Turbulence
Ishigami Senku was silent, because economics was not his strong point, but invention and creation. He believed that as long as everyone could work hard and have a goal, other disadvantages could be controlled. As long as there was no such a fool as Duran in the tribe, there would be no economic crisis. As long as they could build sailboats and find oil to reach the New World, there would be countless resources waiting for everyone, and everyone would be satisfied.
However, Ishigami Senku had to admit that if a bad guy like Duran really appeared, his simple economic system would be immediately beaten into a sieve.
In fact, Ishigami Senku really underestimated the wisdom of mortals, because Duran's means of destroying the economy had appeared before the Common Era. It was Guan Zhong, who had fought three economic wars in his life, and one trick was enough to win over the world. The purchase of deer by the State of Chu was one of them. It was to buy deer from the State of Chu at a high price and buy grain and seeds at a low price. When all the people of Chu went to catch deer and forgot to farm and a famine occurred, the State of Qi would sell the grain and seeds back at a high price, causing the State of Chu to be unable to recover for several years.
If Ishigami Senku also encountered this kind of attack, let alone a few years, even if it was a year, the industrial system he built might collapse, because his industrial system was really very weak.
Industry cannot rely on craftsmanship alone, but on systems and scale. Now Ishigami Senku has nothing. Once there is a problem, all factories will stop working.
For example, now Ishigami Senku is missing. Although the tribe still has Chrom, it is difficult for him to maintain his work, especially because he has no idea why Ishigami is looking for oil, and he doesn't know how to design some details of the sailboat. Of course, what follows is that everyone is worried about the depreciation of the currency in their hands, and they want to exchange the currency for supplies as soon as possible.
The rich second generation was instantly under a lot of pressure, because he issued too much currency, far more than the material reserves. Once everyone started to run on the currency, he could not recover every currency.
It was not a month at all, but just a few days, and the tribe returned to the previous level of bartering.
At this time, Ishigami Senku had landed in front of the Colosseum.
"Welcome to the third new Shinra."
All the buildings that came into view were very strange, very distorted, anyway, not the aesthetics of normal people.
"You three are the first batch of guests, how is it?"
It's hard to say how it is, anyway, I can't appreciate it. Lion King Future grabbed her brother's strong hand in fear. She felt that these buildings might come alive at any time and eat them up in one bite.
"Why is it so distorted?" Lion King Si asked.
"This is not distortion, this is to restore the essence. The buildings here are not for practical use, but to show the inner world of the builders." Duran said that the building in front of him, which looks like the palace of Cthulhu, is a projection of the heart in reality.
"Is the heart of the new human so distorted?" Ishigami Senku looked at Duran, as if to say that this is the existence that replaces the old human, it's really ugly.
"I said this is not distortion, this is realism. The so-called heart is originally changing rapidly, and the hearts of you old humans are also the same. It's just that the new humans have opened the wall of the heart and can communicate sincerely, instead of deception, conspiracy and murder like you. Okay, I'll take you around."
The city of the third new Shinra is very large, full of all kinds of exaggerated high-tech, just like walking in the dual world of cyberpunk and Cthulhu. But such an advanced city should make people feel yearning, but the three people only feel depressed.
"What is this?" They saw a huge poster with the words 'God vs. Demon' written on it.
"This is a super robot war in the promised land. One side represents God and the other side represents Demon. It is equivalent to the confrontation movement of human beings." Duran introduced: "These super robots are the projection of powerful minds on reality."
"Are you trying to say that idealism can eventually allow people to create robots in reality just by imagination?" Ishigami Senku thought it was impossible.
"Yes, but the specific process is very complicated. They mastered the AT force field and then used the force field as power and adhesive. It can be said to be an omnipotent force." Duran looked at the three people and said: "In fact, you also have the AT force field in your heart, that is, the power of the heart wall, but the individual force field is too weak. Only when everyone opens their hearts can the power be gathered together to use powerful force field energy."
What is this, quantum mechanics? Ishigami Senku felt that his brain was not enough, because the science he knew was repeatable through scientists' experiments, not this kind of metaphysics, what heart wall. This kind of thing can't exist at all, he swore in the name of scientists.
Ishigami Senku knows a lot of fantasy scientific theories, such as quantum mechanics, string theory, field theory, relativity, entropy theory... but there is absolutely no heart wall and AT force field, which is completely metaphysics. He was very upset at this time, because the existence of this city and the existence of new humans violated his understanding of science.
"Do you know what you look like now? Like a religious believer. Science is a tool, don't let it become a belief, it will affect your judgment." Duran said shamelessly: "Especially those theoretical sciences about the operation of the universe, they can't be regarded as beliefs, because these theories only put forward a theory that seems reasonable under current technology to explain the birth and end of the world, just like the ancients believed that the world was created by gods under limited conditions. The ancient gods have been overthrown, and if you are a scientist, you should have the courage to overthrow all existing scientific theories. The theories that we now regard as the criterion will eventually be overthrown in the future. Science is a tool, and using science to benefit mankind is a belief."
Ishigami Senku said that Duran had the nerve to say that, but Duran was right to say that the current theoretical science is not the truth. He was indeed too arrogant, and he couldn't resist the existence of new humans just because he didn't understand. After thinking about it, Shi Shen looked at Duran and said, "I want to learn more about the new humans."
"You have a month to understand the heart wall better."
Shi Shen already knew that Duran's goal was to collapse the tribal economy. He had no safety issues, so he didn't say anything more, but devoted himself to understanding this new civilization on the other side of the earth.
The unstable foundation shook the earth. Although the tribe had Krom, Amber, Da Mu Da Shu, Xiao Chuan Gang and other Shi Shen's right-hand men, they were not Shi Shen after all. What they could do was very limited, that is, to do their own things, maintain everyone's work, and firmly believe that their friends would come back.
The economy returned to the level of barter, but it was the same before anyway. It was much more stable when it returned to the original level. During this period, Bingyue also played a big role, because he thought it was interesting to go to sea, so he suppressed some tough guys who were ready to move, but he also re-established his prestige through suppression and gained a certain status.
Bingyue knew that staying in the tribe had many benefits. Compared with being the second in command of the Si Empire, being a small leader in the Technology Empire would gain more benefits. So he stood on the side of the tribe at this time, ready to pull out a team again.
