Chapter 949 Set a small goal first
While countless experts were shocked by the video released by the Golden Scale Trading Center, Chu Fei and Wan Lantao visited the center in a low-key manner.
The first place to visit, of course, is the Jinlin Trading Center.
The Golden Scale Trading Center belongs to the entire dragon clan. The dragon clan conducts business exchanges through the Golden Scale Trading Center, which has an extraordinary influence.
In the Kinmen District, this can only be regarded as a branch, where the "Five-clawed Golden Dragon" is in charge.
As for the level of the dragon clan, there is actually a special introduction here at the Golden Scale Trading Center, which is similar to a museum and is open to the public free of charge.
The museum here covers an area of more than ten kilometers, and the building is up to a thousand meters high. At the top is a flying purple-gold dragon with five claws, which is the top-level Yinglong. However, the real Yinglong can be up to a thousand kilometers long.
Chu Fei was filled with emotion as he walked in the museum.
In Chu Fei's imagination, the dragon clan is actually a special kind of demon clan, and Chu Fei has some prejudice against the demon clan that they eat raw meat and drink blood.
But seeing this museum really shocked Chu Fei. It completely changed his view of the dragon clan and refreshed Chu Fei's knowledge of the inner world.
Yes, the dragon race has existed for countless years, and they even have subordinate races like the dragon people, so it is normal for them to have such a civilization.
The first language used in the museum was Dragon Language, and then it was translated into more than a dozen languages. Unfortunately, Chinese was not among them.
In a daze, Chu Fei had an idea in his mind: why not set a small goal first, and raise the status of Chinese to one of the common languages.
That seems like a good goal.
Along the way, Chu Fei was also analyzing that these mainstream texts themselves carry certain things.
Cloud Seal is directly linked to the cultivation method; Dragon Language is an important tool for analyzing the laws of heaven; Golden Tripod Script excels in the field of souls. Similar situations exist for every common script.
Chu Fei even thought of the world before he traveled through time, why English became a world language, the most important point is: English is actually directly linked to science and technology. Although Chinese came later, the process of "climbing" was very difficult, accompanied by various technical "wars".
Similarly, if you want to elevate Chinese and Chinese characters to one of the common languages in the Xuanlong Realm and even the Changqing Heaven, there must be a kind of practice, a technology, or something, and it must be Chinese!
Chinese has the potential to become a lingua franca, but in the other world, there are countless other writing systems and languages with this potential.
However, these thoughts just flashed through his mind, and Chu Fei continued to visit the dragon museum.
The dragon clan is not a pure single race, it is a "clan".
The nine sons of the dragon are all different, and the dragon clan is also divided into many branches - here we only talk about those with pure blood. Common ones include yellow dragon (gold), blue dragon (wood), fire dragon (fire), blue dragon (water), white dragon (gold), gold dragon (yang), magic dragon (yin), star dragon (spirit, luck), etc. Previously, there were evil dragons (disasters), but the ancestors of evil dragons were killed, and now evil dragons have become the scope of "etc."
The Five Elements Dragon Clan is the basic dragon clan and the largest in number.
Golden dragons can be understood as royal blood. As long as the golden dragons reach adulthood, they are at the level of "four-clawed golden dragons", and many of them reach the level of five-clawed golden dragons after adulthood. As powerful golden dragons, there are very few of them.
The status of the Demon Dragon and the Star Dragon is higher than that of the Five Elements Dragon Clan, but lower than that of the Golden Dragon.
Dragons are naturally masculine, so the status of the evil dragon is not as high as that of the golden dragon.
Star Dragons and Disaster Dragons are considered special dragon races. Both are naturally strong in mental strength. Adult Star Dragons and Disaster Dragons have a certain possibility of mastering the attributes of luck or disaster, but the success rate is very low.
However, the mental power of both types of dragons is very strong, and they can be regarded as the magician group among the dragons.
Among them, the evil dragon is not very peaceful, while the star dragon is usually the representative of wisdom.
The museum did not introduce how the Huolong group played with the eggs, it only said that the Huolong group was not doing well.
But now Chu Fei wondered if this evil dragon was possibly killed by his own "brothers" working together? The brothers were beating him while shouting: I told you to cause trouble for me!
But this raises another question: the Xuanmo pioneering team discovered the trace of the evil dragon and wanted to auction it publicly, so why did the Jinlin Auction House make it public?
Forget it, I can’t figure it out, so I’ll just keep watching.
The levels of the dragon clan, from low to high, are: Jiaolong, Horned Dragon, Golden Dragon, Yinglong, Black Dragon, and Canglong.
Wan Lantao "translated" these levels to Chu Fei.
Compared with big data practice, it can be roughly understood like this:
Jiaolong: below 12.0;
Ceratopsians are real dragons, equivalent to 12.0~16.0, and are divided into two major levels: ceratosaurus and three-clawed dragons; ceratosaurus is a baby dragon.
Golden dragon, mature, equivalent to 16.0...20.0; divided into two major levels: four claws and five claws;
Yinglong, equivalent to more than 20.0, the specific height is not yet determined, because the current top master of mankind, the Lord of Shenglong Palace, is only at the peak of 19.0;
Xuanlong is the current dragon god of the dragon clan;
Canglong, the legendary ancestor dragon.
The five-clawed golden dragon was an absolute master. The Golden Scale Trading Center, with the five-clawed golden dragon in charge, was also magnificent and majestic.
The history of the dragon clan is also a magnificent history of struggle - at least that's what the museum says.
A long, long, long time ago, the dragons appeared here. The world here was still in the wilderness, and there were powerful wild beasts everywhere. At the beginning, the dragons were not strong and once became the food of the wild beasts. Among them were the "wild beasts" that everyone is familiar with, such as "犼", "梼杌", and "虓".
Later, the dragon clan grew stronger, and not only took revenge but also expanded their territory. Now the entire Xuanlong Domain, as well as several neighboring "big domains", have traces of the dragon clan.
A long, long time ago, demons appeared here, and then humans. The dragons began to communicate with the demons and humans, and developed together to open up the wilderness. At that time, everyone was relatively weak, and under huge external pressure, the intelligent tribes were still harmonious.
A long time ago, the dragon clan established a complete civilization and cultural system. There were even powerful dragons who intermarried with powerful humans, and dragon people appeared.
After the dragon people appeared, they began to record history, and the dragon clan had a calendar. At the beginning, they used the Huiyuan calendar. As they kept track of it, they became confused.
There is no way. The lifespan of humans and dragons is too short, and the powerful dragon clan disdains history.
Especially during this period, conflicts between the dragons, demons, and humans began to arise, and large-scale wars were frequent. Until the "return of the gods", the entire Changqingtian order was reshaped.
It happened that the Stellar Era was invented at this time, and history finally became clearer. From the Stellar Era to the present, 1.5 million years have passed!
Because the history is quite detailed, we can see that conflicts between humans, dragons, and demons, as well as civil wars among the races, still exist. The constant outbreak of wars has brought disasters to civilization time and time again.
But after so many years, the war still hasn't stopped. Occasionally, a top-level war between gods will break out, and the battle can affect the entire "realm" or "domain", and in extreme cases it can even sweep across the entire Changqingtian!
Chu Fei watched it bit by bit. Although the cause of the war was not explained very clearly, Chu Fei analyzed a lot of it.
It's nothing more than territory, resources, faith, fame, fortune, and the chance to become a god.
Think about it, mortals can start a world war for the so-called "land under the sun", so it is completely understandable that the gods are now starting a world-class war for the so-called eternal life, supreme divine power, etc.
Intelligent life has a characteristic: it is good at internal fighting.
In such a turbulent war, Changqingtian still cannot develop. Not only that, but now the territory occupied by intelligent life is less than one-tenth.
Of course, there are also geographical reasons, and some places are indeed not suitable for the existence of intelligent life.
The existence of gods and powerful beings requires a large number of mortals to support them. Just like a country's leaders need the people. If some places cannot guarantee the survival of a large number of mortals, then gods cannot exist.
Even the so-called cultivators need to choose their disciples from among mortals.
Therefore, there are still large areas of wild beasts and untamed lands, which is also an important reason for the existence of the pioneering group.
After reading the records, Chu Fei was thoughtful. The records of the dragon clan were, of course, from the perspective of the dragon clan. In all wars, the dragon clan was on the side of justice.
However, Chu Fei saw a lot of things from it. For example, there were more and more "people" in the dragon clan's territory. The people here refer to humans, dragon people, orcs, and even elves.
The record did not state the reason, but based on Chu Fei's experience, we can roughly infer the possible reasons - faith, knowledge, and creativity.
Humans have a short lifespan and strong reproductive capacity, which means they have sufficient power of faith and are easy to control.
On the other hand, human creativity is very strong, which can provide a lot of resources, as well as knowledge.
From the perspective of big data cultivation theory, the world gave birth to life in order to obtain enough information. If information is immortal, the universe can continue to grow. If the gods steal the authority of the universe, they need to pay attention to knowledge.
Perhaps the systems of practice are different, but civilization, wisdom, knowledge, development, etc. can provide nourishment for the upper classes, and those powerful ones must know this.
For example, the struggle for "fame" analyzed by Chu Fei is actually a struggle for information.
There is also the so-called luck. The carrier of luck is the collective, and the collective needs people to organize it!
There is also a saying that every living being is a spiritual being of heaven and earth, naturally carrying a bit of luck, a bit of heaven's favor, etc. Although each person is very small, what if there are hundreds of millions, tens of billions, or even trillions of them?
From the perspective of cosmic brain theory, every life is a "small cosmic brain". There must be benefits to having so many small cosmic brains gathered together.
After reading the introduction with my own thoughts, I visited some artifacts of the dragon clan.
The characteristics of the dragon clan determine that the objects here are all spoils of war. Of course, what is displayed here are just replicas, but they are very lifelike, and the bloodstains and gaps on some weapons are carefully reproduced. The origin is recorded below.
It is obtained by killing an enemy master at a certain position in a certain war.
Some of the destroyed forces even had their heads reproduced, and the records mostly showed "great victory, beheading".
Only those forces that still exist will be more reserved and only display the spoils.
The entire museum is more like a muscle display platform.
Yes, it has the style of troubled times.
Just before leaving, Chu Fei looked at the huge wall clock on the wall of the museum. The wall clock was divided into two parts. The upper part was a turntable, and the lower part was an electronic display. The timekeeping used the Yanhuang Federation standard of year, month, day, hour, minute and second. There were small words on the base: Made in Yanhuang.
Very good, even the Dragon Museum uses the standards of the Yanhuang civilization. So, even though the Yanhuang civilization did only one thing, that one thing had a far-reaching impact. This is called wisdom.
Chu Fei took a deep look at the wall clock, then left the museum, started shopping, and browsed the entire trading center.
The total area of this trading center exceeds one million square kilometers. Most of the transactions in the entire Kinmen District are conducted here. A complete industrial chain, finance, logistics, etc. have been formed here.
If you don't look at the various "people" here, the strange buildings here, and the various words here, Chu Fei even has a feeling of walking in a commercial and financial center.
It is hard to imagine that the "divine world" has also become secularized.
From time to time, powerful warriors would fly across the sky, inspecting the land; occasionally a golden dragon would fly by, attracting the attention of many people, especially some dragon people, who would even kneel down in worship.
Here, Chu Fei saw ordinary people working. The ordinary people here barely reached 8.0 in cultivation and were responsible for some simple tasks.
Although there are strong people and spells, the cost of casting spells is really not cheap.
A basic energy crystal can last no more than a month if used sparingly, and the most basic energy crystal is worth 16.0 yuan. The currency of the Yanhuang civilization here is based on the standard of strong people.
Ten thousand yuan can hire a team of ordinary people to clean the house.
In fact, in this trading center, almost 10.0% of people you see are "ordinary people" with a score below .
Chu Fei temporarily advanced 10 energy crystals from the Xuanmo Pioneering Group and bought a lot of things with it.
The energy crystals produced by the Yanhuang civilization are still very popular because of their high purity and can be directly used for cultivation. At the currency trading point here, one energy crystal can be exchanged for 100 gold dragon coins, 10,000 gold scale coins, and 100,000 gold coins.
Gold coins are a kind of voucher, not real gold coins. Gold coin vouchers are just a name and have nothing to do with gold.
Ordinary metals such as gold and silver are also precious metals in the higher-dimensional world - at least more expensive than ordinary copper and iron. Scarcity makes things valuable. And refined mithril and red gold are very expensive.
A standard meal here costs only about 30 to 30 gold coin coupons for an average person, which is probably equivalent to about 20 to 30 yuan.
Considering that the prices in the trading center must be high, it can be inferred that the living standard of "mortals" does not exceed 20 gold coin coupons and 2 gold scale coins a day. An income of 100 gold scale coins a month is enough to support oneself, and the income from one energy crystal a year is enough to ensure a minimum.
But for a 16.0 practitioner, absorbing one energy crystal a day can only be regarded as filling a gap in the teeth. With Chu Fei's current cultivation level, if he exercises a little more vigorously and uses some minor magical skills every day, the energy consumed is one basic energy crystal (one gram of energy).
After understanding this, Chu Fei had a clear idea of the current price situation in the world.
After walking for more than 80 hours, the sky began to darken and the "sun" in the sky was already setting in the west.
A day on this continent lasts for more than 8.0 hours. An ordinary person with a cultivation level of less than 12 usually has to rest after working for 8.0 hours in a row. An "ordinary person" between 10.0 and 24 usually cannot work for hours in a row.
The working hours here don't mean staying up late for one or two days, but it's like this all year round.
But it doesn’t matter. The shift system is a great invention and there will never be a shortage of busy people here.
After a tour, Chu Fei had a clearer understanding of the basic business environment and price levels here, and then began to visit high-end shops, mainly 16.0-level shops.
Although just looking without buying is unpopular, it is still okay for Chu Fei to use his perception to search for intelligence.
Materials at level 16.0 are worth tens of thousands of standard energy crystals; as for weapons, equipment, potions and elixirs, they are often worth hundreds of thousands of energy crystals.
Think about the computing power currency of Yanhuang Civilization (Shenglong Hall). The value of a 16.0000 level practitioner is 2.4 grams of pure energy, while excellent weapons and elixirs start at grams of pure energy. It feels a bit exaggerated. However, there are few resources and many practitioners.
When productivity is insufficient, human life is not as valuable as goods. This is historical common sense.
Of course, the value of a person cannot be calculated so simply, because humans can continuously generate wealth. But by calculating in this way, we can clearly see the price level and resource situation in the other world.
Unlike the surface world, there are too many types of cultivation in the inner world. If big data cultivation doesn't work, then try cultivation of truth. If that doesn't work, then try magic, totems, sorcery, sacrifice, faith, taming beasts, alchemy and refining, etc.
After going through this cycle, even if each type of practice requires only one in ten thousand or even one in a hundred thousand, in the end, only about one genius can emerge among a hundred mortals.
Coupled with the fact that cultivators generally have a long lifespan, the final result is that there are really a lot of cultivators. At least before 10.0, ordinary people were everywhere on the street.
The more practitioners there are, the more resources they consume. The basic resources are consumed in large quantities, and the advanced resources are insufficient and stretched.
Therefore, the price of resources is very high, and people are not as valuable as goods.
Among them, Chu Fei discovered a small detail - the energy crystal of the Yanhuang civilization is a technological product! This means that the Yanhuang civilization can make its own money!
As expected, you can make a fortune in silence.
The time rhythm of the other world is slow. Chu Fei observes, studies, researches, and thinks, understands the culture and customs here, tries to get in touch with the materials and resources here, and gradually builds a route and policy for survival and development in this world.
More than a year passed in the blink of an eye, and finally the annual auction according to the traditional chronology of the Dragon Clan began.
The traditional chronology of the dragon tribe is very interesting. They originally used the average adulthood time of the dragon tribe as the standard, and then divided it into 50 parts, each for one year. The so-called "year" here is translated. The dragon tribe has its own writing, but it is enough to understand it, and the translation does not need to be so accurate.
The reason why it is divided into 50 parts is that "the number of days in the sky is fifty, but one is missing", and this saying exists in many civilizations.
Roughly speaking, "1 Dragon Year" is equivalent to "12 Years" according to the Yanhuang standard. In other words, the average adult life of the Dragon Clan is about 600 years.
Chu Fei was looking forward to such an auction because he could see the top transactions in this world.
There is a saying that goes, "You can see far only if you stand high enough." Such an auction can allow Chu Fei to see a corner of the world's top scenery. (End of this chapter)
