Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1392 Return
Shangluo proposed a bold plan, so bold people were needed to carry it out - but this was only bold in terms of ethics. In reality, it was an obvious fact that Qigong practitioners would not die in a plane crash.

With the physical fitness of a Qigong practitioner, even if they fell from a height of 10,000 meters, they would only be covered in bruises. Because the body of a Qigong practitioner is beyond the mundane world, these ordinary collisions cannot hurt the Qigong practitioner's foundation.

From a magical perspective, if the mystery of nature is set to 0, and the mystery of mortals is the same as that of nature, then although Qigong practitioners cannot be sure what the mystery is, it is definitely greater than 0.

If reality is arranged in layers, the Qi training stage is already above the natural world, and the foundation building stage is above the Qi training stage. The power from the bottom layer cannot harm the upper layer.

In comparison, the mystery of the elves can be considered a negative number, because the power of reality can profoundly affect the spirit world, while the spirit world can only subtly influence reality. Although the elves can confuse the facts through some visual errors, they cannot resist the real sun after all.

Qigong practitioners move above the nine heavens. Even if a plane explodes into pieces in the air, they will probably be safe and sound, at most they will fall down.

"But Shangluo, now that you've said that, I'm beginning to doubt the necessity of the aviation industry."

“People can walk to anywhere, and that doesn’t stop the transportation industry from existing since ancient times.”

"No, Shangluo, it's different. Because as far as travel within a few kilometers is concerned, there is really no need to build a transportation industry, you can just walk there. If the trip is extended to hundreds of kilometers, it is okay to spend several months preparing, and it is not impossible to walk there. If it is extended to thousands of kilometers, such as going to Beijing to take an imperial examination, it must be regarded as an important journey in life - but modern transportation is not based on this logic. Modern transportation connects the entire world in an efficient way, and people in need can go to the other side of the earth without preparation.

"This does not mean that the earth has become smaller on a modern scale. Rather, there is a division of labor in the aviation industry, and preparations have been made for everyone's long-distance travel. Modern society is a society of division of labor. It is precisely because modern people have divided up all the chores in life that everyone can have the leisure time that was not available in the pre-modern era. However."

He said in a deep voice: "We are facing an extremely serious social problem: when the division of labor becomes unnecessary again, what will our society become?"

【Not to mention that this is indeed a real problem. 】

Do Qigong practitioners really need to take a plane? The answer is ambiguous. For example, Fu Yuanshan did not need to take a plane when he was in the Qigong stage, and now he can travel freely around the world without the help of aircraft. And if other Qigong practitioners really want to learn, then it is not too difficult to learn to control the wind.

In this case, not only the necessity of the aviation industry is questionable, but the significance of the existence of every component in society will probably have to be re-examined. The first industry to be impacted will probably be the medical industry. Because no matter what level of cultivation one has, Qigong practitioners will no longer be troubled by mortal diseases. Although they may still have some minor illnesses such as colds and fevers in the initial Qigong training period, they will be completely free of these diseases when they reach the first level of heavenly beings.

Both Zhu Xianxin and Zheng Shijie had a clear estimate of this. As soon as the ascension began, the medical industry that originally belonged to the mortal world would have to be restructured, and everything would need to be reshuffled.

Although doctors should be able to adapt to the medical environment of the new era quickly, considering that the definition of the object of medical diagnosis and treatment - people - has changed, and there is currently no simple way to treat people, all of this will obviously bring considerable pressure to the parties involved.

If medical students may still have some solutions, then the impact faced by many other people is immeasurable. After all, although medicine is dealing with evolved people, it is a science. There are more questions to be solved, which is gratifying from a scientific point of view. Although it will cause some fluctuations in the medical industry in the short term, in the long run, the medicine of the immortal way will surely continue to progress.

But the same cannot be said for the aviation industry. After all, do Qigong practitioners really need to fly?

Zheng Shijie was thinking about this question. Shangluo also thought about it.

"Well," he threw the question back to Zheng Shijie, "Guoxing, what do you think?"

"What should I do? I'll just sit and watch. Lan Fang Airlines is one of Lan Fang's pillar industries and it's also our face. I can't just sit there and watch Lan Fang Airlines decline like this - but if this is the necessary price, then there's no problem. But, at least there's a process, right?"

Zheng Shijie has not yet discussed the specific steps of ascension with Shangluo in detail:
"So, the ascension is achieved overnight? Does everyone ascend overnight, and those who can't ascend can't ascend, or does the court slowly provide resources to allow everyone to ascend gradually?"

"It's possible."

“Please adopt the latter option. This will give everyone, not just Lan Fang Airlines, a chance to breathe.”

"I know that." Shangluo nodded, "Actually, I have some plans. As you know, first of all, I plan to provide free steamed buns to everyone."

"Are you going to reduce everyone's cost of living to zero first?"

"Ah."

Shangluo's plan is to make everyone's life ascend before everyone's body ascends. The newly introduced series of perpetual motion machines can satisfy all material needs overnight. Although it only provides unlimited bread in a small area, Shangluo's goal is to allow everyone to receive abundant supplies.

Although it sounds troublesome, it is actually very easy to implement in the Ming Dynasty as long as the supplies are sufficient. Because just like the supplies that Shangluo filled out before, the citizens of various cities originally used this kind of free supplies to stabilize the cost of living. As long as the ration quota for everyone is increased, the already abundant supplies will become infinitely large, and these goals can be achieved by relying on the existing logistics channels.

Doing so will not bring too much impact to the original life, after all, this is how everyone lives. In addition, this will not bring endless troubles to the production side, because although the categories to choose from are rich, they are ultimately limited. As long as everyone's pockets are filled up in one go, even if the world changes color tomorrow, it will not cause any major changes.
