I am reborn as Sai, but the animation three-body

Chapter 198 Visit from the Star Alliance
"By the way, there are still some things I want to ask you about money in this era." Taylor said afterwards.

"You might as well ask Dr. Wang, he once had a master's degree in history from Yale University, and he should know more about ancient things than I do." Alice suggested.

"Okay." After Taylor finished speaking, the doctor who was in charge of him leaving the recovery room came over a short while ago.

"Mr. Taylor, there is no money in this era, and everything is free. Countries did not issue much money half a century ago." The doctor said.

"How would a modern economic system work without money as a medium of exchange for the economic system?" Taylor asked.

"Modern economics is a very complicated subject. As a subject that does not rely on basic science and is related to the entire society, this is a subject that human beings have made many major breakthroughs before breaking through the sophon barrier.

Among them, the refined disciplines are as high as four figures, and even a bachelor of economics can only master a small part of them. Naturally, it is impossible to explain the details to you with my academic qualifications. "

"However, there is generally no problem. First of all, with the improvement of productivity a century ago, the welfare of countries became better and better, and gradually began to cover most of the needs of life."

"For example, food, clothing, housing and transportation are free, and you can get bonuses for doing many things that are beneficial to society. Therefore, human society has evolved into a paradise of high welfare, and a person can live well even if he doesn't work."

"Coupled with the crackdown and splitting of giant companies by various countries at the request of voters, the currency is actually a bit of a tasteless existence, because most things are free, and there are no rich people who occupy most of the wealth."

"Then almost 20 years ago, countries proposed further reforms to completely abolish currency and transactions and create a society where academic innovation was at its core."

"This is called an academic research-oriented society by Say. After 20 years of reforms, only the Hibernator Autonomous Region still uses currency for transactions. You can't buy anything with money in modern metropolises."

"Of course, except for a very small number of luxury goods and handmade products, the rest of the things, as Alice said, can be applied for at the Material Distribution Department. AD people are not subject to any discrimination or restrictions in this regard."

"And if you want benefits like luxuries, or more voting rights and participation in affairs, you have to increase the level of academic benefits by getting more degrees."

"As for the school, it's not a problem. There are no restrictions on institutions of higher learning in this era. As long as you are an American citizen, you have the right to study in any American university. The school cannot refuse or put forward any conditions."

"As for tuition fees, this situation does not exist at all. As I just said, everything is free in this era, and there is no such thing as money or fees."

"Of course, there must be requirements to get a degree. You can't get it casually. You have to complete and pass multiple exams." The doctor explained.

"Why did countries suddenly carry out reforms in this area 20 years ago?" Taylor asked suddenly.

"The reason for making this decision is, on the one hand, because it is the inevitability of social progress, and on the other hand, because we want to negotiate peace with the Trisolarans, and the scientific blockade imposed by the Trisolarans on us will disappear soon."

"But didn't you just mention that human beings have broken through the sophon barrier?" Taylor asked suspiciously.

"Yes, humans broke through the sophon barrier half a century ago and began to make progress in basic science, but the scientific blockade of the Trisolaran still seriously affects the speed of human research on the microcosm."

"If the Trisolarans agree to stop the blockade of the microcosm, then the usefulness of an academic research-oriented society will be revealed, and human civilization will become a large scientific academy for studying basic science." The doctor said confidently.

"By the way, do you know about the wall-facing plan?" Before the doctor left, Taylor stopped him and asked.

"Has this evil plan been terminated yet?" The doctor asked back.

"Ah?" Taylor wondered after hearing this, could it be that the Wallfacer's reputation is so bad now?

"These guys are all crazy, Taylor and Lin Feng wanted to blow up their own fleet with ball lightning, Rey Diaz and Cheng Xin wanted to blow up the sun, Say wanted to be a warlord in space, Luo Ji wanted to start impparty but was castrated! "

"But the craziest one has to be Seanes, he actually wanted to use his ideological seal to turn all human beings into defeatists, not only caused the three Star Destroyer strike groups to flee, but also caused my father to be expelled from the United Earth Fleet. "

"Wait, who are Cheng Xin and Lin Feng?" After hearing these two unfamiliar names, Taylor couldn't help asking.

"The two Wallfacers in World 2, one is the former Prime Minister of Malaysia, and the other is the former Minister of Defense of East Asia. They are also the ultimate in psychopathy. That Cheng Xin later became a warlord with Say every day."

"World No. 2?" Taylor asked in confusion. What about World No. 2? After hibernating, the Wallfacer Project somehow selected two more people?
But the other party didn't seem to want to tell him World No. 2, perhaps because he was worried that the too bizarre information would affect the recovery of the hibernators.

So Taylor asked again: "How are those Wallfacers doing now?"

"Rey Diaz was stoned to death, Hines and Lin Feng died of old age decades ago, Say just woke up last year, and what Taylor and Cheng Xin seem to be still hibernating."

After the two chatted, the hospital bed sent Taylor back to the intensive care unit, and then Taylor began to sleep. According to the recovery process, he will stay in the hibernation center for two weeks.

....
A few days later, some time after fellow patient Wilson had been discharged from the hospital, a man in a suit suddenly approached Taylor and brought him to the reception room.

This person gave him a sense of familiarity, because the clothes of the other party were different from those of modern people, and there were no flashes of patterns on them, which might be a solemn expression.

After shaking hands with Taylor, the visitor introduced himself and said, "Hello, Mr. Taylor, I am Liu Xin Tom, the special commissioner of the Human Interstellar Alliance. I arranged for your awakening according to the instructions of the Star Alliance Council."

"Now we will attend the final hearing of the Wallfacer Project together. Oh, by the way, Mr. Taylor, can you understand me? Chinese has changed a lot in this era."

Taylor later learned that the two ancient languages ​​of the two great powers, that is, English and Chinese, are constantly merging and becoming a real Esperanto and Human Language.

Fortunately, Taylor had taken Mandarin as an elective in middle school, so he could understand Liu Xin Tom's words, so he nodded to express his understanding.
