Imagine the world

Chapter 1 The Country of Delight

Hua Zhenxing woke up from his dream and opened his eyes to see darkness.A gust of wind blew, and he shuddered, with a blank expression as if asking—who am I and where am I?

After a while, he regained his senses and looked up at the starry sky between the low eaves. Only then did he make sure that he was still in the streets and alleys of Port Fesso, and it was still 2020.Last night, he was taken to a bar frequented by local natives by the big man Heshire and drank too much. When he came back, he fell drunk in an alley not far from his home, and fell asleep leaning against the wall.

Hua Zhenxing couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Fesuo Port is not a safe place. It is known as a city of chaos. In this night when every family seems to be closed, danger is always everywhere.

In this alley, Hua Zhenxing once saw a fallen corpse with his own eyes.The nameless deceased must have struggled to escape a long distance after being shot elsewhere, and finally died in a deserted alley, only to be discovered at dawn.Before the police arrived, the belongings of the deceased were picked up by passers-by.

In a dangerous environment, the most important thing is to keep a sober head and make a correct and timely response.Although old man Yang was only a grocery store owner, he was the most knowledgeable and capable person Huazhenxing knew.

Hua Zhenxing began to seriously examine himself, there was no injury on the surface, and there seemed to be no hidden pain in the body.The paratrooper's dagger hidden under the left rib, the steel finger tiger on the back waist, the lighter in the jacket pocket are still there, and even the wallet in the right trouser pocket has not been touched.

Fiso Port is a seaside city located in Jili State in the east of the Black Desolation Continent.And Jili Country is almost the poorest and backward place in the world. The average life expectancy here is only in his early 30s, and nearly 90.00% of the local aborigines are illiterate or semi-illiterate.

It is easy to be stolen or robbed if you are not careful in Feiso Port. Huazhenxing is used to carrying a wallet when going out. If you encounter a vicious guy, it is not easy to deal with or it is inconvenient to do it directly. So disappointed.

Everything that should be there is still there. It seems that he has not suffered an accident. He just drank too much and fell asleep under the wall. The passers-by at night have not yet discovered and walked along the property.Huazhenxing finally took out a Huawei brand smartphone from Dongfang from his jacket. It was his favorite thing on weekdays. Through the small screen, it seemed that he could connect the whole world.

Huazhenxing did not light up the screen of the mobile phone, but took it back.After checking his body and things, he should go home quickly, but at this moment he still sits under the wall and seems a little distracted. He even closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

He was trying his best to recall the content of the dream just now, lest the impression would be blurred after a little delay, because the dream was so attractive to him.When people wake up from a dream, they often feel that the dream is very clear, but as long as time passes, the memory becomes very vague, and only a few fragments can be remembered. .

Hua Zhenxing just had a very special dream, but he didn't realize it in the dream. When he woke up and recalled it, the time in the dream turned out to be 2520.But now it is only 2020, that is to say, he dreamed of the world 500 years later, in the world at that time there was a Huanxiang Country that does not exist now——

In 2520 AD, Feisuo Port was already the capital and the largest city of Huanxiang Kingdom Zhen Xingbang. There was not only Feisuo University, one of the most important universities in Huanxiang Kingdom, but also the production base of Chunrong Dan.Zhenxingbang is one of the 28 administrative regions of Huanxiang Kingdom on this planet, and it is also the earliest territory of Huanxiang Kingdom.

It is said that the complete recipe of Chunrong Dan, which is regarded as one of the top secrets of the Lesbian Country, is kept in the Chunrong Dan Production and R&D Center in Fesuo Port.Countless forces in the world want it, but no one seems to have heard of it so far.

Chunrong Pill appeared more than 400 years ago. The exact time is unknown. The name sounds very common, but its miraculous effect is like Zhuyan Pill in Xianxia novels. The pinnacle of pharmaceuticals.

It is not a simple elixir, but a large box of prescription medicines, with a total of 360 doses, each with different ingredients, each with a specific date for taking the medicine, and take one dose per day.As long as it is taken in the correct way according to the requirements of the instructions, according to the clinical observation results of nearly 400 years, it has not been found to have any toxic and side effects.

Of course, the so-called youthful appearance is only a relative concept. According to the clinical conclusion, taking a box of Chunrong Dan can roughly "retain the appearance" for 30 years.The specific effect can be described as follows: If you are 70 years old, you still look like you are in your forties.

As a prescription drug that must be prescribed by a doctor and must be taken under the guidance of professionals, the description of its curative effect is very strict in the instruction manual, only it is written that "this product can improve endocrine and microcirculation, regulate metabolism, and play a role in delaying aging. ".

As for the saying that a box of Chunrong Dan can "retain beauty for 30 years", it is the result of hundreds of years of clinical observation and statistics, and it is also a fact seen by the public, which has long been recognized by the whole world.

Since "one box retains the beauty for 30 years", wouldn't it be possible to maintain the beauty for a longer time by taking a few more boxes until youth remains forever?It's a pity that the effectiveness of Chunrong Pill is diminishing, and the instructions clearly stated that each person should not take more than three servings at the same time, and the cumulative dosage should not exceed nine boxes at most.

Even if the theoretical maximum dosage is reached, nine pieces of Chunrong Dan have been taken accumulatively, and its effect is roughly equivalent to twice that of one serving.According to the folk saying, it is "60 years in beauty".

This is already a remarkable miraculous effect. Think about it carefully, if someone in his 90s still has the face of his 30s, what kind of miracle is this?What's even more remarkable is that Chunrong Dan is a commodity that can be produced industrially on a large scale!

There may have been so-called "elixir" in history, and the legendary panacea may really exist, but can they be industrialized on a large scale like vitamin pills and become everyday consumer goods for ordinary people?

Unfortunately, this pill is only valid for women, and the manual also specifically emphasizes that men are prohibited from taking it!In professional medical institutions, many users have to do a chromosome test first.

This has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the majority of male compatriots in the world. Although the finished product is strictly controlled, many men have secretly taken it through various means for hundreds of years, including many powerful people.However, it has been proved that men taking Chunrong Dan has no obvious effect on the beauty, and there are even many side effects.

Although only women can take the Chunrong Pill produced in Huanxiang Country, men are also crazy about it, the reason is obvious.One box of Chunrong Pill can retain youth for 30 years, and nine boxes can retain beauty for 60 years!What kind of temptation is this?Lots of people are willing to pay crazy prices for this!Women are crazy, and men are not immune.

But Chunrong Dan is only Chunrong Dan, it can not make people rejuvenate, it can only make the appearance not bad, and maybe there are some effects of improving physical fitness.And the gospel of men finally appeared decades after the advent of Chunrong Dan, which is an exercise method called nourishing the soul.

Since the birth of human beings, whether in myth or in reality, there have been various physical and mental training methods and even so-called secret methods of cultivation. Most of them are absurd and difficult to prove. So exaggerated, and always covered with a veil of mystery.

Yangyuanshu is an epoch-making exercise method in human history, which was launched 400 years ago.It should have come out before the founding of Huanxiang Kingdom, but the real large-scale promotion was decades after Chunrong Dan came out, and it has become popular all over the world in the 26th century.

The efficacy of this exercise system is verifiable, independent of any specific religious beliefs, and has been demystified to the greatest extent possible.

The promotion of Yangyuan Art has also experienced ups and downs for a hundred years. At first, it was monopolized by a certain class and banned from being publicized. Later, someone finally broke the barriers and promoted Yangyuan Art to all the people.In today's Happy Country, Yang Yuan Shu has been included in the compulsory education curriculum of middle schools, and every child has five years of free learning opportunities.

Yangyuanshu exercises a state of mind and body. After training in various special methods as a basis, it can also enhance and master various abilities of a person. It may have been regarded as a superpower 500 years ago.

Huanxiang State-owned special official organization is responsible for issuing the certificate of Yangyuanshu level.It is said that there are nine levels in the art of nourishing the soul. The first to third are the primary ones, and the winner is usually called the master of nourishing the soul;The sixth level and above is the advanced level, and those who have achieved this are called masters of Yang Yuanshu, which is no longer something that can be assessed by an official institution.

The masters of high-level nourishing art are even just legends among ordinary people.Even an instructor with an intermediate certificate of Yang Yuanshu is a rare talent in the world. No matter where he goes, he is very popular, and many places are usually unable to invite him.

According to the "Outline of Yangyuan Technique Teaching" promulgated by Huanxiangguo, only those who have obtained the intermediate level Yangyuan technique certificate are qualified to instruct others to practice the primary level Yangyuan technique.Huanxiangguo has included Yangyuanshu into compulsory education, and the teachers of Yangyuanshu in every middle school are appointed by the government, and it is difficult for other countries or regions in the world to have this condition.

After so many years of promotion, the tutorial on nourishing yuan is no longer a secret.In Huanxiangguo, everyone has the opportunity to practice under the guidance of professional tutors. Even if the standard of obtaining a first-level certificate is not reached in the end, there is no harm in practicing it. It also has the effect of self-cultivation, physical fitness, and longevity. Practice for a lifetime.

The effect of nourishing the soul was also questioned at first, but now the voices of doubt have almost disappeared.There is one data to prove everything. In 2520, the average life expectancy of the citizens of Lesotho has reached [-] years, of which males are [-] years old and females are [-] years old.

The average life expectancy of women is three years higher than that of men. Some people say that this is a physiological difference, and some people say that this may be the effect of taking Chunrong Dan.By the way, the official also claims that practicing Yuan Yangshu can promote the effect of Chunrong Dan. According to a popular saying in society, it is "to increase the effect of maintaining the face for another ten years".

Life expectancy is only one aspect, and what is more important is the quality of life. After people reach the age of 500, they can generally still be as healthy physically and mentally as those young people 500 years ago.This is the world that Hua Zhenxing dreamed of [-] years later.

In the dream, he didn't realize that he was in the dream, and he seemed to completely forget that he was actually a 2020-year-old child in 15.His name is also Hua Zhenxing. He is a fresh undergraduate who has just graduated from Feisuo University. He is lucky to work in Chunrongdan Production and R&D Center in Feisuo Port.

As for the age, if it is based on the dream, it should be 20 or 21 years old.Because Huanxiang Country stipulates that children can apply for school when they are five years old, and they must go to primary school after they are six years old.

Unlike most countries and regions 500 years ago, Huanxiang Country implemented a [-]-year compulsory education system. Primary school is not six years but five years, and middle school is also five years, regardless of junior high school and high school.

The undergraduate system of college is also five years. Young people in Huanxianguo usually work for a period of time after graduating from college, and then go to graduate school.This has become a habit, and one of the reasons may be that people live long enough to study and work.

Huazhenxing has experienced a complete 15-year education in primary school, middle school and university. After graduation, he joined Chunrongdan Production Research Center.He can get such an enviable job not only because of his excellent character and learning, but also because he already has a third-level certificate of nourishing Yuanshu, and he is a young talent with great potential.

Although higher education in Huanxianguo is not compulsory, it is basically a public-funded education. The state provides subsidies to its citizens, and only a nominal fee is charged. Students only need to pay for their own living and the purchase of teaching materials.

The Huanxiang country government promises to provide jobs for all fresh graduates who pass the grades evaluation, and will announce these positions on a special information platform during the graduation season every year, and graduates can choose by themselves, a bit like volunteering for the college entrance examination.Jobs for other social personnel will also be recruited year-round, and a dedicated information platform will be announced.

Huanxiangguo provides jobs for fresh graduates in 28 countries around the world, with different requirements and natures, so this is a two-way selection and matching process.If this process is carried out by traditional manual methods, it will be too difficult to complete, but in the era of artificial intelligence development for hundreds of years, it has become very simple.

If someone can't find a job he is satisfied with and is unwilling to engage in other jobs, he can choose "unemployed". This word originated more than 500 years ago.However, many benefits in Huanxiang Country can only be enjoyed in specific jobs.

Among the many social benefits of Huanxianguo, there is one that is envied by other countries in the world: all female citizens of Huanxianguo who meet the following conditions can apply for a box of Chunrong Dan given free by the state.

1. At least 25 years old.

2. Married with two or more children, both husband and wife are citizens of the country.

3. There is no crime or the crime has exceeded the prescribed time limit of the corresponding penalty.

As long as you meet the above conditions, you can apply and then participate in the lottery, once a year.The lucky ones may win the lottery in the first year, while some people may not win the lottery for several years in a row, but the probability of winning the lottery increases with the number of applications, and will definitely win the lottery within ten years, because the probability of winning the lottery for the tenth application has reached [-]%. .

What about female citizens who do not meet the above criteria?As long as you are over 25 years old, you can also participate in the lottery. The probability of winning the lottery is different. It can only guarantee that you will be able to draw within 20 years, but you need to purchase it at your own expense.

No more than [-] draws at most, and you will definitely buy a box of Chunrong Dan, which is already a generous benefit that other countries in the world are envious of.This welfare policy has sparked protests in China.Some women think that it is unfair to treat them differently based on conditions; some men ask, should the state give women such generous benefits, should it also compensate men accordingly?

In response to some women's protests, the official spokesperson explained that in fact these Chunrong Dans were not provided by the Huanxianguo government, but privately donated by the founder of Huanxianguo, Mr. Feng Zibin.This is the condition of the gift. Some people can choose not to accept it, but they cannot force the donor to give it according to their own wishes.

In response to the protests of some male citizens, the spokesperson just smiled and asked: "Isn't this also a benefit for men?" Everyone present at the time laughed.This is a quote from Feng Zibin. About 400 years ago, Feng Zibin also asked this question in response to someone who questioned that he had only invented Chunrong Pill for women.

Don't ask how Hua Zhenxing in the dream knew this, he naturally had this information in his mind, as if it was some kind of imagination about the future.

Fesuogang Chunrongdan Production and R&D Center is referred to as Fesuo Center. In the dream, Huazhenhang has just joined the center for half a month, and the first confidential training ended yesterday, which is a rest day.

Feisuo Center provided Huazhenhang with a dormitory for singles, with a usable area of ​​99 square meters, including a kitchen, bathroom, living room, two rooms and a small utility room.

Originally, a fresh college graduate like him who just started working could apply to the government for a single apartment near the unit. The standard is that the usable area of ​​the apartment is 49 square meters, and there is also a kitchen and bathroom, as well as a small living room and bedroom.The so-called standard refers to the subsidy standard of the work unit, and the amount is 80.00% of the listed rent of the apartment.

If someone wants to live in more comfortable conditions, they can also apply for a higher standard public rental housing, but they have to pay the full amount themselves.

Why does the workplace provide this kind of subsidy?Based on the simplest principle: the remuneration paid by the unit to its employees can be in currency or other forms. Under the corresponding social welfare system, it should satisfy the most basic aspects of living, living, health, establishing a family, raising offspring, etc. individual expenditures, otherwise society as a whole cannot function properly in the long run.

Huazhenxing’s apartment is provided by the work unit, and it doesn’t cost a cent. It can be seen that the center’s treatment is very good, and its entry requirements are of course very high. Possessing the third-level Yangyuan art certificate is only a basic condition, and it also requires good quality. Excellent academic performance and passed various audits.

When Hua Zhen walked out of the apartment building, the sky was already bright, the fresh air was scented with grass and trees, and a crimson glow was already reflected in the east.In the public green belt between the residential buildings, there are already quite a few people standing there on the shelf, in a state of concentration, they are all practicing the morning exercise of nourishing the soul.

Hua Zhenxing saw the vigorous old man Yang at first glance. He was standing there with his legs slightly bent, his arms outstretched as if he was rubbing something in his arms.Old man Yang opened a canteen at the gate of the living area... Wait, the style of painting seems a bit wrong. It's the 26th century. Is there a canteen like 500 years ago?

But this is just a dream of Hua Zhenxing, and there is nothing unusual... Old man Yang is 120 years old this year, and he is a retired veteran employee of the logistics support department of the center.In Huanxiang Country, where the average life expectancy is 120 years old, it is not surprising that some people are still alive and kicking at [-] years old.
