Lu Yang keenly grasped the keywords in the paradise designer's discourse: "Restart?"

"It's just resetting back to the original script settings!" Seeing Lu Yang still having a puzzled expression, the park designer spread his hands: "Is this strange? The entire cultivation society is a castle built on the beach, which cannot exist in a sociological sense. If it is allowed to develop naturally, it will soon collapse itself. When it collapses to a certain extent, it can only restart and reset everything back to the factory settings."

Factory settings?

After hearing this word, Lu Yang combined his experiences in the world of cultivation and seemed to have understood what the paradise designer was saying. The following words of the paradise designer indeed confirmed Lu Yang's guess.

"Well, let me look at the current timeline first... Is it 6456 years since the last restart? It's expected that because I'm already asleep, no one will restart the world again. Back to the topic, the initial setting of this world of cultivation was at the moment 6456 years ago. In other words, only what happened in the last 6456 years is the real history, and the history before this was just factory settings. In other words, the million-year history recorded on this planet is false, and all made up by me!"

Unexpectedly, reasonable!

Lu Yang showed a sudden enlightenment. Many unsolved mysteries were solved at this moment: "No wonder! This world has been trading spirit stones for hundreds of thousands of years, but there has not been a spiritual stone financial crisis. However, after the second heavenly crisis, the spiritual stone financial crisis broke out one after another! If the history before the second heavenly crisis was false, this would make sense!"

The park designer smiled bitterly: "Using spiritual stones, which are semi-first and semi-luxury, as currency, as consumer goods, is born with instability. However, the Galaxy Federation has a novel platform called "End Network". In the cultivation novels serialized above, cultivators like to use spirit stones as currency. Many Galaxy nobles said that if this cultivation world does not use spirit stones to trade, it will not be enough. So I can only make mistakes and fabricate false traditions of using spirit stones for the indigenous people in the cultivation world. Anyway, indigenous cultivators often go in seclusion to practice. Even if the spiritual stone financial crisis breaks out, it will take a process. Before this, there are still a lot of more serious crises than this!"

"There is a crisis that is more serious than the Lingshi financial crisis?"

"That's of course!" When talking about the world he created, the park designer immediately started to talk: "To be honest, the first version of the cultivation world I designed was completely collapsed before tourists could come to play, just half a year of internal testing. Do you know why?"

“Is it because of the unstable social structure?”

"Smart! When individual combat effectiveness becomes the only criterion for measuring human value, when a person can kill tens of thousands of people at will, no matter how the social structure is adjusted, it will be unstable. Any social system is the optimal solution made by hundreds of millions of different individuals. If this kind of game between individuals is completely expressed in the form of violence, it is a sociological disaster."

Lu Yang agrees with the theory of paradise designers.

Everyone in society will only act according to the principle of maximizing personal interests. If the state or social system fails to meet the requirements of some people, friction will inevitably arise.

In a modern rule of law society, this kind of friction may not be displayed in the form of fierce confrontation, but will be manifested in the form of lip service, deceiving superiors and concealing subordinates, and laziness inaction. Bureaucracy is essentially a product of compromise created by the friction between individuals' interests.

If this friction cannot be overcome, even the supreme leader of a country will not be able to fully implement his will. He wants a human civilization to point out like an ordinary person, unless there is a social system like a dystopian or cult, it is simply a fantasy.

However, the above logic is only applicable to a society where individual endowments are roughly equal.

When the abilities of each individual in society are differentiated, the conflict of interests between individuals will be manifested in a more extreme form. Just like the relationship between the nobles and the untouchables of the Holy Empire, due to the gap in physical fitness, the two sides have formed a subordinate relationship similar to that between humans and dogs.

If in a society of cultivation, individual combat effectiveness becomes the only criterion for measuring human value, and the gap in individual abilities is thousands or even tens of thousands of times, this differentiation even exceeds the gap between dogs and humans. Oppression, killing and enslavement will surely become the main theme of society.

To go further, in a society where individuals are extremely differentiated, even slavery cannot form a sufficiently stable social form.

Because leeks tend to be self-extinction!

Just as George Orwell said in the famous book "Animal Manor": "In the harsh living environment, animals will choose to reduce fertility or sterilize themselves, which is the natural law of natural selection."

Many developed countries on the earth have a widespread problem of low fertility rates. The most fundamental reason behind this is that with the development of modern technology, the number of population is becoming less and less meaningful in the face of population quality. Therefore, when simple children with multiple children cannot improve the overall social status of the family, the optimal solution for each family's game becomes eugenics and fewer children.

The gap between the rich and the poor is differentiated and the lack of mobility in class solidification further exacerbates this problem.

When 80% of the social wealth is concentrated in the hands of 20% of the people, it is difficult for the lower class to ensure that they compete fairly with the children of the upper class even if they only have one child. At this time, most leeks will lack the courage to have children and simply choose to become extinct, which shows that the overall social fertility rate is getting lower and lower.

When it comes to class solidification and individual differentiation, slave society is definitely far beyond modern society.

It is natural that both American slaves in the history of the earth and the untouchables of the Holy Empire have encountered problems of low fertility rates, which have made the population unsustainable.

To solve this problem, the nobles of the Holy Empire chose artificial breeding methods, maintaining the size of the untouchable population by breeding untouchables as livestock. Like the government officials of the serf towns in the North Wind Kingdom that Connelia served as the former. The main performance evaluation standard is the population birth rate of the serf town.

American slave owners adopted different strategies based on actual conditions. Due to the general living conditions of slaves and the high premature death rate of children, the increase in the number of American slaves mainly relies on continuous import rather than their own reproduction. In the early colonial era, if external imports were not considered, the overall population growth rate of American slaves had long been negative.

However, in the early 18th century, with the large-scale development of plantations, which led to problems with the supply of slaves in Africa, the problem of low fertility rates of slaves was once again put on the table, and forcing female slaves to become fertility machines gradually became a common phenomenon.

During the plantation period, slave owners owned a female lord who could keep giving birth, which was equivalent to the modern capitalist owning a sports car. In this context, some American agricultural plantations were no longer entirely built to plant crops. On the contrary, the profit margins of agriculture were minimal (as today), and the profitability of some plantations could be said to be based on the sale of excess slaves.
