Chapter 264

There is no doubt that these two interstellar civilizations are very powerful civilizations. It is hard to say whether they have mastered the means of sailing faster than the speed of light, but their behavior is far more powerful than human beings.

Because they can do interstellar voyage and interstellar trade!

Deep space navigation is not a simple thing. Human beings can't sail at will.

Spaceships such as the earth times and the golden sun need massive social resources to be built. Usually, they travel without return and are scrapped after flying once.

"First, analyze the first interstellar civilization encountered by Gliese civilization. The motivation of this civilization... Is likely to be goodwill."

Zhang Yuan sent a hypothetical picture on the screen: "a scientific research spacecraft passed by the planet and found this group of lazy indigenous creatures. You can let them go or destroy them. Anyway, there are many choices... So on a whim, it was kind-hearted to enlighten. They even expected that Gliese civilization would be stuck by the key point of 'electricity', so they dialed it in advance. "

"I think the motivation is very simple, that is, it comes from the joy or pity in the heart. Just as human beings encounter ants and give them some biscuits when they are in a good mood, they will feel very happy to see the ants' hard work and move biscuits. "

Zhao Jianchang asked, "however, ants are fundamentally different from Gliese civilization. No matter how powerful ants are, they cannot pose any threat to themselves; But Gliese civilization has wisdom. It is a qualitative change from 0 to 1. More zeros can be added later. It has thousands of possibilities. Is there really such a kind civilization? "

Zhang Yuan seriously replied: "Captain Zhao, the universe, the Milky way, such a huge territory, is not such a remote place as the earth. There are too many empty territories. It is inconvenient to communicate with each other. There is no need to compete for resources like the earth."

"If humans find a kind of intelligent monkey on the earth, humans will really panic, catch and study them, and even exterminate them..."

"But in the universe, intelligent life is just ordinary. Maybe it can reach one thousandth or even one percent! If, what I'm talking about is if, there are 10 million kinds of intelligent life in the Milky Way alone, you can't panic to catch and kill all intelligent life? "

"Moreover, there are still many barriers to cross from the primitive era to the interstellar era and then to a more powerful civilization. Most civilizations are mediocre, and there is no need to worry... Maybe some civilizations like to spread sparks of wisdom everywhere? "

This view was soon unanimously agreed.

No matter what kind of ideology the first interstellar civilization was, the probability of goodwill was in the majority.

I really can't think of any bad intentions.

Next is the behavior analysis of the second interstellar civilization.

This civilization is more complex and has more historical records in this regard.

Zhang Yuanfa asked, "if the second interstellar civilization clearly knows that giving away 13 universal factories will lead to the degeneration of Gliese civilization. So, the most important thing... Why are they doing this? For what motive? "

Captain Zhao shook his head: "it's likely that they don't know. No one can predict. After tens of thousands of years, Gliese civilization suddenly takes drugs. This is impossible to predict... Even if our new civilization history has developed for 10000 years, it is impossible to accurately predict the point. "

Li Zhendong thought and didn't speak. Until then, he said, "Captain, even if you don't take drugs, the oligarchy brought by the universal factory is not a very good regime, oligarchy..."

"Or, the trap laid by this civilization is far more than happy element, and there are other hidden traps, but Gliese civilization was just knocked down by happy element. It's actually a bad intention! "

"I don't think so. Why should they?"

"Or maybe the first civilization likes to spread sparks of wisdom, and the second civilization likes to kill sparks everywhere."

"Then why bother so much? Just put it out? "

Seeing the people arguing noisily, Zhang Yuan waved his hand, "everyone, don't think so much, let's go back to the original transaction."

"The star merchant used 13 universal factories and some power generation equipment to buy the mathematical system of Gliese civilization and a lot of works of art."

"It's hard to say the value of mathematical knowledge. The mathematics of Gliese civilization is indeed more advanced than ours. It may be very valuable, or the cosmic level is just ordinary... But works of art are a little strange, even strange."

Zhang Yuan followed and said, "if you hold the most malicious idea and try to figure out the mind of the star merchant, you will get a very strange, even a little evil conclusion..."

"Oh? What conclusion? Let's hear it. " Captain Zhao said with great interest.

Zhang Yuan asked, "what do businessmen value most?"

"Of course... Interest!"

"Do you think the interstellar merchants will lose money in the face of a weak civilization that can be slaughtered at will? In the most common way, not to sympathize is not compassion. "

"No, absolutely not!"

"So, this interstellar merchant is likely to make a lot of money in this transaction!"

At this time, another vice captain stood up and said, "make a lot of money? So they were given 13 universal factories? In fact, if you don't give these things, just build some basic equipment, Gliese people can also develop. "

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "yes, for the Gliese, some of the most basic power generation equipment is enough. Naturally, it will develop slowly. The most important thing in the universe is time. What's the difference between giving it directly to the universal factory and pulling up seedlings to encourage it? "

"But think about it, what makes them make a lot of money? The Gliese offer only two things, mathematics and art. "

Mathematical knowledge? The knowledge accumulated over 100000 years is indeed great and full of wonderful ideas.

But no matter how smart the Gliese are, they can't be the smartest species in the galaxy, let alone the oldest species. In terms of probability, there are civilizations older and smarter than them.

"In other words, mathematical knowledge is probably just some licking."

"... only works of art accumulated by time can make special money."

Zhang Yuan broadcasted a picture on the screen showing the Gliese art carving.

This inference is so strange that many people can't understand it.

The price of works of art is mostly hyped. It's enough to hype inside civilization, but can the trade between interstellar civilizations be used?

Do interstellar civilizations still engage in speculation and finance?

This is to God!

Zhang Yuan sighed, stretched out a finger, and another image appeared on the screen.

"Gentlemen, the facts are not what you think. In the galaxy, as long as there is an extremely powerful civilization that likes these things, it is enough. Yes, as long as there is a strong civilization, only one is needed... "

"This probability is not low!"

"And we can't always look at things from our point of view. We are just a group of poor people. We can't be poor anymore. Of course, we can't pursue too high spiritual enjoyment... Even on earth, art is also a plaything between the rich. Can the rich and the poor pursue the same? "

Everyone laughed. Well, what Zhang Yuan said makes sense. Maybe some interstellar civilization is really idle in space and has developed to its own limit, so it collects spiritual and cultural art in the whole universe... This kind of thing is not impossible!
