I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early-Chapter 769 - 549: Greedy Demon God, Greed Rises Again!

The encounter of the Green Grass Civilization lays bare before us, and humans remain significantly cautious about "True Dreams".

Before the large screen, Lu Yuan solemnly said: "Of course, True Dream technology will not be directly shut down."

"On one hand, it is indeed an excellent educational tool that allows the next generation to immerse themselves in experiences of past stories."

"Experiences during childhood can shape a person’s character, and we cannot let the future generations grow up pampered and develop arrogant dispositions."

"On the other hand, True Dreams is an excellent scientific research tool. In the future, aptitude tests will be established, and those who pass can activate higher permissions."

"The deepening research on hibernation technology is also ongoing. Hibernation can delay aging, and long-term work in dreams can increase lifespan."

These policies were formulated after extensive discussions.

"Yet, we must realize that humans are ultimately beings that live in the real world."

"To prevent addiction, we will cancel most of the entertainment facilities within dreams, retaining only traditional media like televisions and radios."

"The opening of True Dreams is like Pandora’s box; easy to open, difficult to close."

Governments find it hard to shut it down directly. Is it possible to solve problems by outright banning it like computer games?

Impossible!

Unless computer games never appeared in history; since they have, it’s tough to abolish them directly.

Moreover, the combination of the "hibernation tank" with "True Dreams" can indeed significantly extend lifespan without affecting daily life.

Can we really stop people from pursuing longer lives?

Hence, the Green Grass government is also racking their brains, fearing the repetition of the Green Grass Civilization’s fate.

In the end, they had to cancel most of the dream entertainment projects. You may enter dreams on weekdays; on weekends and holidays, if you want to entertain yourself, you have to come out. If not, it’s up to you!

This can be seen as a compromise, and the populace reluctantly accepts it.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath and changed the subject: "Next, I want to discuss future development plans."

"Establishing a civilization trading market signifies obligations and responsibilities."

"Not only will it bring us a vast amount of resources, but it will also uplift all the cities in the Northern Territory."

"Here, I must mention our responsibilities. The current level of human development is largely benefited from the legacy of the previous epoch’s civilization."

"It’s their leftover knowledge and wealth that have helped us ascend in technology and pass through numerous disasters."

"Therefore, we indeed have the responsibility to establish a new order for the Ninth Epoch."

It’s not that Lu Yuan is adding drama to himself, but rather... setting grand ideals has positive significance for humanity.

Maslow, on top of the highest personal fulfillment in the five-layer need theory, proposed transpersonal psychology, which involves altruism, compassion, and quasi-religious experiences.

People in this state of mind are more responsible, proactive, and creative, feeling that they are the center of their actions and perceptions than at any other time.

They can more truly feel that they are the primary movers, deciding everything about themselves, rather than being led, decided, dominated, helpless, spiritless, and only capable of waiting passively.

As the Human 18th Civilization develops to this level, the Little Mirage Dragon has also matured, and the technology of this level 3 civilization is gradually increasing. As long as they do not encounter [Ghosts], self-defense is mostly sufficient.

How to break free from indolence and comfort, and strive forward endlessly, is a difficult social issue.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath: "Fair trade with other civilizations is a win-win choice, and overcoming epoch disasters requires more powerful civilizations."

"Therefore, in the future, we will train more diplomats."

"We will also undergo a series of adjustments in our industrial capacity..."

The most lucrative thing in the world is naturally selling knowledge, which is profit without capital.

However, in the Northern Territory, selling knowledge is difficult because the survival conditions of numerous civilizations are too harsh, too cold to develop any industry, even if they purchase knowledge from humans, it’s of no use.

Hence, after much deliberation, Lu Yuan and others came up with a new path: selling cities!

We directly sell you a small city equipped with a large number of solar panels, with ready-made power and heating equipment.

Isn’t it possible to develop industry this way? Moreover, this city possesses floating capabilities; buying one can benefit future generations permanently! As for the price, it’s not expensive, 1 unit of Luck per square kilometer, and large quantities offer discounts.

"This is our most basic idea."

The proposal of this idea caused quite a stir — just how many cities need to be built?

Are we going to spend our entire lives as construction workers?!

Yet, surprisingly, people are quite ambitious, and there are countless joking posts popping up online.

[Got it! Commander Lu wants to be the real estate developer of the Ninth Epoch, and we are all construction workers.]

[He’s trying to replicate Earth’s historical era.]

[But there are significant differences...]

In the Big Food Bucket Restaurant, the Lanpeng people and human scientists discuss the latest decisions over meals.

"But what if strong opponents are fostered?" Colonel Lu Ying of the Treasure Hunting Team rubbed his temples, "Among so many civilizations, some will inevitably have extra opportunities. What if they become stronger than us?"
