The Queen's shocking conclusion made Li Yao stunned for a while before shaking his head and saying: "I'm afraid it can't be such a simple analogy.
Even though an ordinary person's power is very weak, he is...'
a skinny monkey', but after all, ordinary people have the largest number, and they gather together to form a tower. , Adding up a little makes a lot, doesn’t it have the greatest squeeze value?”
"Theoretically, it's true, but you've overlooked one point.
Even the so-called 'squeezing' has costs."
Li Linghai said, "When the management cost greatly exceeds the value that can be squeezed out, this kind of squeeze is uneconomical.
It is like humans can indeed use many secret methods to modulate skinny monkeys into ferocious and strong biochemical war beasts." , but in fact no mine or army will do this, and the cost is too uneconomical.”
Li Yaodao: "Human beings are not monkeys after all.
The gap between the so-called 'original people' and 'real people' is smaller than imagined.
I know that the empire has countless cruel and secret methods that turn human beings into all kinds of deformed and ugly forms, even The purpose of removing human organs and replacing them with spiritual prosthetics is to transform ordinary people into a form more suitable for exploitation.
Does Her Majesty the Queen want to deny this?
" Li Linghai said lightly: "Do you think this is the so-called 'squeezing'?"
Li Yao said: "Isn't it?"
Li Linghai said: "Even if it is, it is for the good of these original people.
You must know that the empire's psychic puppet industry is now highly developed and can produce various puppets in large quantities that are not too expensive.
If the original people cannot To catch up and not transform themselves into various deformed and ugly forms that can work efficiently, they will only be defeated in the cruel competition and starve to death.
Not only will they starve to death, but even their families will not be spared. .
"There are many examples in the history of the empire.
Some mine owners were soft-hearted and failed to strengthen and transform the original miners in the mines in time.
As a result, mining costs remained high and they were unable to adapt to the fierce business competition.
They eventually went bankrupt and were completely replaced by others. annexation.
"After others annex such a mine, they often transport large quantities of psychic puppets to replace the human miners.
Guess what will happen to these human miners who are replaced by machines?
"So, it is for the survival of these lowest-level primitive people that the empire's experts and scholars have racked their brains to develop various human body enhancement and mechanical transformation technologies, so that primitive people have the ability to compete with psychic puppets, and even possess The special abilities that psychic puppets do not possess have, to this day, saved the jobs of most of the original people and enabled them to survive.
"Many times, moral principles and kindness alone cannot solve any practical problems.
Ignoring the actual situation and rashly raising the minimum wage and working environment will lead to the further deterioration of the living conditions of the people at the bottom.
Such a simple truth , I don’t believe that as an incarnation of God, you don’t understand.”
"Of course I understand."
Li Yao gritted his teeth and said, "But this is not the reason why you can transform a living person into a steel spider.
Everything has a degree.
Imperial authorities like you are completely irresponsible and completely push the people at the bottom down.
The practice of cruel competition is too much!”
A bright light flashed in the Queen's eyes, and she actually took a step back: "Maybe you are right.
The empire does bear great responsibilities to the people at the lowest level, but the premise is that there must first be a strong central government that has the ability to directly control every person in the world.
The policies of the world, every resource planet, every family and sect are the only ones that can work.
If the 'government decrees do not come out of the Tianjixing', it is useless to talk about the spirit and philosophy.
"In short, this is not the focus of our discussion today.
The point is that compared to the lower-level immortal cultivators, the original people are just skinny monkeys.
Those high-level immortal cultivators, that is, the nobles and powerful people, do not have much interest in directly oppressing them.
The lowest level of primitive people.
"On the other hand, the True Human Empire has ruled the Star Sea for thousands of years.
During these thousands of years, the path to immortality has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Even the original people deeply believe in the theory of 'the weak eat the strong' and regard the path to immortality as a natural principle.
"In this state of existence, the original people will not complain too much about their fate.
Who calls them too weak?

Once they are used to their weakness, they will not have too many extravagant hopes.
Most of the original people All resigned.
"Human happiness often does not depend on material things, but on mentality.
Believe it or not, in many highly developed worlds in the empire, there are very mature and stable social operating rules.
We conducted a sample survey on the original people there. , their happiness index is not low.
"Most primitive people feel that life is like this and they should be content.
Compared with the miserable life of displacement and precarity in the war era, the ancient cultivation era, the 30,000-year Dark Age ruled by demons, or under the rule of the Covenant Alliance, Their current fate has been much better.
Therefore, the Starlight Organization has been struggling for hundreds of years without causing much trouble.
"Of course you can think that this is the result of the empire's long-term brainwashing.
I don't want to argue with you, I'm just telling you a fact.
"The fact is that the original people are not the class in the empire that is most dissatisfied with the status quo and wants to change their destiny the most.
They are really the most deeply oppressed, and they are also the most aware of the fact that they are 'oppressed'.
They also have enough wisdom, courage and even Those who have the fighting power to change the status quo are middle and low-level immortal cultivators in the Qi refining stage, foundation building stage and even part of the elixir forming stage!
"This truth is not difficult to understand, right?
"If you are a primitive miner, the most serious 'squeeze' you will encounter is to work in a dark mine for a lifetime.
Unless you encounter an accident such as a mine explosion, your life can always be saved.
Unless absolutely necessary, no one will ask you to go to the battlefield.
Just these "skinny monkeys" will be a burden on the battlefield.
"Moreover, you don't have the chance to receive enough education that can make you clearly aware of your own destiny and pain.
In many cases, if you don't recognize the pain, there is no pain, right?
“But it’s different for the lower-level immortal cultivators.
"The 'squeeze' they have to endure is most likely to be in a fragmented world somewhere, fighting monsters that do not appear in nightmares.
They may be swallowed by monsters in any minute.
In a year and a half, Over time, it was slowly melted by the acid in the monster's digestive tract, and it did not die until the last month.
"Yes, in many informal small-scale mining sites in remote worlds in the empire, work safety is very problematic.
Mining accidents occur constantly, but no matter how high the mortality rate of miners is, it will not exceed the death rate of low-level immortal cultivators on the battlefield.
"On the other hand, even those who have just awakened their spiritual roots and are at the lowest level of the first level of the Qi Refining Stage have enough wisdom to think about the society they live in, their own future and future, and the entire world. !
"You know, in the empire's traditional education, 'immortal cultivators' are regarded as the supreme masters of the country and civilization.
All middle- and low-level immortal cultivators have high expectations for themselves.
They are all full of passion, ambition, and ambition.
When such ambitious cultivators realize that they are just a tool to be exploited, can you expect them to treat it as calmly as the original person?
" Li Yao was deeply attracted by what Li Linghai said.
He used to treat the immortal cultivators as a monolith and the same interest group, but he had never tried to consider the problem from such a perspective.
After thinking carefully for a moment, he slowly shook his head and said: "No, the original miners worked to death in the dark mines with no hope at all, but the empire has a very advanced 'contribution point' system, which is known as 'regardless of one's origins'" , "The strong are respected", to ensure that the ascending channel is unobstructed?
"Every immortal cultivator who fights with the starry sky beasts in the fragmented world has the opportunity to obtain a large number of 'contribution points'.
After exchanging the contribution points, he can slowly upgrade step by step, and there is always a chance to become a peerless powerhouse.
As for those who died in People on the way, according to your theory, can only admit that they are unlucky, but they can't blame others. " Li Linghai smiled: "It claims to be an absolutely fair contribution point system and a smooth upward path?
Even I don't believe this kind of propaganda slogan.
Do you believe it?"
Li Yao blinked his eyes quickly: "I don't really believe it, but...
I still ask Her Majesty the Queen to explain it in detail."
"In the final analysis, it is still a question of making and dividing the cake.
When it is in the rising period, the cake gets bigger and bigger, so naturally it can be divided any way.
But once the cake reaches its limit and even slowly shrinks, it will not be divided evenly."
Li Linghai sighed and said, "The millennium development history of the True Human Empire can actually be divided into two five hundred years.

"In the first five hundred years, the empire occupied the center of the Star Sea and rapidly expanded in all directions.
It discovered a new world almost every year, won battles every year, added new territories, new populations and various resources every year, and formed a steady stream of The new crystal armor battle group and star sea fleet, naturally, these territories, battle groups and fleets are accompanied by a large number of official positions and opportunities.
"At that time, the path for middle and low-level immortal cultivators to rise was indeed unimpeded.
As long as they dared to fight hard and had a little bit of luck, yesterday's unknown people would have the opportunity to rise through the ranks and become famous big shots.
In countless With the accumulation of resources, he cultivated into an all-powerful man "It was a golden age when the empire was vigorous, enterprising, and prosperous.
Interest groups had not yet solidified, and class mobility was extremely strong.
Indeed, as you said, middle- and low-level immortal cultivators were very keen to participate in various wars and earn contribution points, even if If they die in the most painful way during the fighting, they can only blame themselves for their poor academic skills.
They will never blame others, let alone those high-level immortal cultivators for 'oppressing' them.
"but…… "Almost five hundred years ago, the territory of the True Human Empire had expanded to more than 90% of today's size, reaching its limit.
The expansion of the 'cake' had almost stopped.
The situation in the next five hundred years would be completely different."
