Chapter 237: The Footsteps of History
In ancient times, residential communities were tribal systems based on clans, and were distributed in livable zones in a dot-like manner.
Because of the comfort of the environment, coupled with the long dormant and short waking hours, it is quite difficult to start a war, and there are no ambitious figures in the entire civilization.
Therefore, during the ancient times of hundreds of thousands of years, there was never a unified community or a large country.
This split situation is actually quite unfavorable to the development of a civilization. Without much communication, communication, and trade, at most, it only depends on the connection of some "bards". Civilization is like a pool of stagnant water, so how can there be changes?
It is no wonder that the Glitzer civilization was in a state of ignorance for hundreds of thousands of years before the emergence of the "Inspirator". But now it is different. As time goes by, the Glitzer people prefer these elegant, almost infinite "arts"!
They began to spontaneously yearn for the place where the "Inspirator" once stayed, namely the so-called holy mountain, Goer City!
Especially some smart Glitzers, after making new academic discoveries, they are eager to communicate with more smart people. There are only a few geniuses in a tribe. When communicating with fools, if the other party doesn't understand, it will be less refreshing.
So, a huge migration spontaneously emerged!
It has to be said that this kind of social change is very strange and is fundamentally different from humans. Humans gather together for better survival, while the Glitzers gather together for better discussion of "art"!
More and more tribes gather in the "holy mountains", which will not only cause collisions of ideas, but will naturally also cause various contradictions, frictions and related trade activities.
When the population exceeds 50,000, the rules, morality and production methods of primitive tribes can no longer accommodate so many people, and they naturally need greater changes.
Therefore, under this historical context, the first recognized wise man of the entire civilization, the great man of the era named "Gando", came late.
"Gando", the smartest wise man at that time, the great mathematician, the discoverer of the law of buoyancy, the agriculturalist, the first consul of Goertek, guided various agricultural developments and supported more people.
The reason why great men are called great men is because their eyes far exceed the limitations of the times.
Ganduo deeply understands the limitations of his own civilization. Compared with the great enlightener civilization, this flaw is really big and a bit terrible.
Because the "Inspirator" never rests!
But the Glitzers had to lie dormant for about ten days, and then they were awake for two days. Everyone would go to bed when they wanted to sleep, and they would get up when they thought about it.
This kind of daily routine makes the entire civilization extremely poorly organized, and it becomes very difficult to educate the next generation.
Just imagine, even when going to school, students' sobering periods are scattered. How can they pass on knowledge on a large scale? Do they all rely on self-study?
In addition, the ideology of civilization tends to be lazy, and it is really...too difficult to become a powerful civilization like the "inspirator".
As the first consul in Goertek, Gando tried his best to issue a series of policies, unifying weights and measures, currency, developing agriculture, and improving corresponding laws.
The most controversial thing is a policy on the work and rest system.
Gando believes that only when all Glitzers' work and rest are unified can we concentrate our efforts to do big things and make Goer City stronger!
This is a very simple truth, but it is very difficult, and it is really difficult...
A natural government that has not been violently unified and voted by the public can exert very little power, and how strong is the execution ability?
When witnessing this history, Zhang Yuan felt very emotional. The difference between civilizations is really too big!
Because the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, day and night, there is a natural routine of work and rest, and there is no need for unity at all.
Even all living things on the earth have their own routines because of the rotation of the planet.
As a result, this civilization is not good. The planets are locked by tides, and there is an eternal dusk outside, and the light in the underground cities is always dim. In addition, the environment is relatively safe, so they have no concept of time at all.
What kind of "regular routine" is simply against one's nature!
What is the difference between not letting people sleep and dying!
Although this wise man who tried to violate his "nature", Ganduo, who made great contributions to civilization and had a high prestige, also accumulated many political enemies in his century-long ruling career. After forcibly implementing the policy of unified work and rest, he was finally seized by his political enemies. The angry masses almost drove the consul out of the stage in a riotous manner.
"Ganduo" spent the rest of his life in wandering. No tribe dared to accept it, and no tribe could accept any regular routine.
Zhang Yuan heard two scientists around him whispering, "Is Goer City... the underground city where our diplomatic team is now staying?"
"Yes, it should be the most powerful city in this civilization... the center of science and culture."
The progress of history is tortuous and twists.
It was not until the end... when the "regular work and rest system" was really born, that this wise man named Gandu was renamed by later generations.
It’s just that the death of this great man has been many, many years...
Zhang Yuan sighed slightly, isn’t this the case for humans?
Socrates was sentenced to death by a people's court. Facing the threat of death, he did not retreat, leaving only a famous saying: "Now, the time for us to separate is here, I will go to death, and you will continue to live; however, no one knows which of these two results is more pleasant, except for God."
Jordano Bruno, facing the burning fire and the crazy and fierce believers, angrily scolded the church: "When you announce your judgment against me, you are much more afraid than I accept this judgment!"
*** Passionately on the scaffolding platform...
A genius who is half a step ahead is a madman who is one step ahead. The concept beyond the times is always not so easy to accept.
Li Zhendong, who was sitting next to him, commented: "Oh, but it's not uncommon to think about it carefully... Life is always used to staying in its comfort zone and is not so willing to change it. If you make you turn your nights upside down for no reason, you will definitely not accept it." Computer terminal::/
"Democracy is not good. If you want to change a problem, you must have the consent of the majority of citizens. In fact, most people are very stupid... How to say it, it is very naive and stubborn. If it is an authoritarian regime, it can be forced to be implemented in an instant."
"Dict?" Zhang Yuan laughed, "Where did the dictatorial government come from? There are only some security personnel, and even the army is scattered."
Li Zhendong said: "Hey, actually, I pay more attention to the civilization called "Inspirationalist". Through a way of making a big difference, I completely changed the historical process of the Glitzer civilization. The Inspirationalist...why should I do a good thing, right?"
Zhang Yuan nodded: "The good or bad of a civilization state can only be measured by entropy functions, which is a bit complicated to calculate. However, I also think the enlightener did a good thing."
"But the darling of a planet is not the darling of the universe. The ultimate creature on the planet is probably just the primary level in the universe..."
"…Evolution has always only evolved to be sufficient, but not to be perfect. When it is sufficient, evolution will stagnate..."
"The structure of our human body has not changed for a long time..."
Compared with the earth, the survival pressure of Glitzer civilization is too small, and the comfort zone is too comfortable. It is very, very difficult to change.
