Outside the city, the dispute between the two sides went on for more than two hours.
Generally speaking, the other party has come to collect the protection fee, but it is not the time to collect the protection fee yet.
This is obviously a blackmail by the other party.
Huaxia City said that if they persecuted them so hard, they would be forcing them to their death, with the appearance of being destroyed.
The other party seemed to be intimidated, and after a long period of bargaining, it was finally decided to ask Huaxia to hand over 300 jade stones.
This seems to be the bottom line.
Some Chinese people began to accuse those Chinese people who were in charge of bargaining, but seeing the enemy who came here to show off their might, everyone chose to remain silent.
Chu Feng just looked at all this coldly.
Half an hour later, the negotiators took out some round "jade stones" and handed them to the enemy with a look of humiliation.
The blackmailing humanoid took the blackmail money and left here happily.
After the enemy left, those Huaxia people whose faces were full of anger and humiliation couldn't help it anymore, and burst out laughing.
I just endured it for too long.
Fortunately, I have been fooled.
Chu Feng: "Glass balls are very valuable here?"
He saw very clearly just now that the so-called "jade stones" that were taken out were actually glass balls.
When Chu Feng was young, he still liked to play.
Until now, in a certain corner of Huaxia City, there are still many children playing marbles.
In a small park, some young people were playing checkers, and the chess pieces were surprisingly the same glass balls that were regarded as treasures by the enemy.
"Things are rare and expensive."
Gu Nanfei said indifferently, "The rules of the Ancient God Realm are so suppressed that you can't even fly below the holy ranks. Of course, no one is bored enough to study this kind of thing. On the contrary, we, without electronic products, can only give them to our children. We studied some old toys."
Chu Feng covered his forehead: "I didn't expect us Huaxia to do this kind of thing."
Speaking of similar things, things are happening on the earth.
"Well, but they are not completely stupid. The rules of the ancient gods are different from that of the earth. These glass balls are infused with vitality. When refining, put them into the refining furnace to prevent the refining furnace from overheating."
Gu Nanfei explained, "In the eyes of the surrounding forces, we are a special tribe that has mastered such a special method to produce such rare treasures. It is more cost-effective to squeeze us than to destroy us."
"So, you've been here all this time?"
Chu Feng felt a little hard to accept, not that he didn't accept the behavior of paying tribute, and the weak would be beaten.
If you don't accept it, call back!
? If you can¡¯t beat it, then you can only suffer, whether it¡¯s hard work or hard work, in short, you have to shrink back.
However, the biggest difference between being flexible and cowardly is whether you have the determination to fight back.
It's just that such a plot development is too unexpected.
"Otherwise? Of course we can easily exterminate the surrounding tribes, and then our power will enter the eyes of the ancient gods."
Gu Nanfei said, "Although there are so many holy ranks in the Ancient God Realm, they can be regarded as a strong party in a small place. No matter what kind of power, no one will underestimate the existence of a holy rank."
"So, this is also your hiding method."
Chu Feng understood.
"Yes, it's a very common thing to fight young and grow old. We humans can't stand at the peak of the ancient gods, so we will be squeezed and exploited."
Gu Nanfei gently placed a glass ball on the table, "But we have shown too much strength, so it is not just a glass ball being exploited."
It may seem absurd to offer tributes of children's toys.
However, it is also a kind of sadness.
However, who told you to be weak?
"Well, this is also a good way to hide."
Chu Feng took it for granted, since the human race has not yet reached the peak strength, then keep a low profile.
There are always people who like to say that they can crush everything with absolute strength, but those who say those words often don't know who is the one with absolute strength.
What kind of strength, what kind of path to choose.
"However, if you don't show your strength, will it weaken your competitiveness for resources?" Chu Feng suddenly thought of something.
? Hiding the hole cards is a must, because the hole cards are life-saving.?.
However, if you pretend to be a pig and eat too many tigers, you will become a real pig.
Why don't the Seven Great Temples have much hidden power, because if they dare to hide, their enemies dare to treat them as soft persimmons, and everyone wants to pinch them. If you pinch them too much, you will become a real soft persimmon.
"Of course it will, but it won't affect much."
Gu Nanfei played with the glass ball in his hand, "Even with the same resources, our resource utilization efficiency is much higher than theirs. One of the essences of civilization is the improvement of efficiency."
"That's right, they don't even know how to make glass balls."
Chu Feng couldn't help laughing, but soon, his smile froze, "The essence of civilization is the improvement of efficiency?"
Gu Nanfei was a little strange, he didn't understand why Chu Feng cared so much about this sentence, but he still said:
"I'm afraid everyone has a different understanding of the essence of civilization. Some say it is culture, some say it is wisdom, some say it is inheritance, some say it is fire, and some say that the essence of human beings is a repeating machine!"
"Everyone has a different understanding."
Chu Feng muttered to himself.
The essence of civilization is indeed an abstract concept.
What it is actually depends on what is needed.
There is no specific dividing line.
But Gu Nanfei pointed out a possibility for him.
Efficiency improvement.
The speed of change of the resources on the earth is negligible, but human civilization can still flourish.
This comes from the improvement of efficiency.
The human race at the beginning could only use natural energy.
Gradually, the improvement of the efficiency of biological energy, chemical energy, solar energy, wind energy, nuclear energy, etc., allows human beings to study things other than survival.
And things other than survival are the root cause of those top powerhouses' fear of civilization.
If human beings only want to survive and only want to improve their life level, then there will be no weapons.
The birth of weapons is to make up for the shortcomings of the human body.
These root causes are the improvement of efficiency.
If a strong civilization wants to suppress a weak civilization, it must curb the development efficiency of a low civilization.
The earth is thriving today, which is also derived from the transformation of efficiency.
"Is the life in the ancient gods' domain very inefficient in the use of resources?"
Chu Feng asked Gu Nanfei.
"It's not all right! For example, the utilization efficiency of resources by the mechanical race is much higher than that of the Zerg race."
Gu Nanfei paused, and then said, "However, it is said that these two races are low-level races in the ancient gods, and they have been squeezed out."
"Sure enough."
Chu Feng smiled and shook his head, "Sure enough, no matter whether they are civilized or not, the common problems of intelligent life are quite similar." (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
