Experts from the Earth Age have already considered in advance the issue of forming a government on Sedna when the population increases to a certain level, and have made plans in advance. All Zhao Changxing needs to do is to make some adjustments based on this plan based on the actual situation.
During this process, Zhao Changxing held several all-adult meetings via video during his break, conducted several discussions, and held many group discussions, collected thousands of opinions, and took half a year to prepare. ——In this process, conflicts inevitably arise due to different interests, but they are all within controllable range.
This is simply unavoidable and is the nature of all intelligent life. And Zhao Changxing has never thought about avoiding these things. After all, appropriate competition and conflict are also beneficial to the overall situation.
After reaching the common denominator of the greatest interests, Zhao Changxing announced that the human civilization government—human government for short—was formally established. He has undoubtedly become the leader of the human government.
At the current stage, the human government has more than a dozen different departments under its jurisdiction, including the Public Security Department, the Punishment Department, the Discipline Department, the Industrial Department, the Education Department, the Agriculture Department, the Electric Power and Energy Department, and the Engineering Department, which are responsible for managing different matters within the scope of civilization, and The first constitution of human civilization was adopted and various regulations, criminal laws, civil laws, etc. were formulated.
In addition to this, a new calendar has been established. The AD era was abandoned, and the new calendar marked the first year of the new calendar with Zhao Changxing piloting the Spark spacecraft into orbit around the star Sedna. According to this calendar calculation, it is now May 27, 110th year of the New Calendar.
Due to the nascent government, each department has two or three big cats and kittens, and the staff is sparse. But after all, they are formal government management departments. They are separated from front-line production and specifically perform management duties. They can also greatly improve social efficiency.
From now on, you don’t have to worry about confusion of rights and responsibilities, confusion of personnel, unclear arrangements, etc.
After the human government tried it out for a year and confirmed that there were no major flaws, everything was operating normally, and good results were achieved, Zhao Changxing started planning and launching the next reform plan.
Commercialization reform plan.
Until now, the entire human civilization has implemented a rationing system without any internal commercial activities. That is to say, labor is unpaid, but food, clothing, etc. are all free, all provided by the civilized government for free and rationed according to need. This situation was not a problem in the early stages of civilization when the population was small, but as the population increased, disadvantages gradually emerged.
The main problem is that work efficiency decreases and people's own enthusiasm cannot be stimulated.
In the business reform plan, except for minors, the rationing system for adults will be completely abolished. Everyone will be paid according to the results of their labor and time, and then use the remuneration to buy food, clothing, housing, rest time, and return to fire. Quotas for spaceships to visit children, etc.
The reward will be reflected in "contribution points". In layman's terms, contribution points are currencies issued by human governments. This currency is guaranteed by the food produced in the planting workshop, the industrial products produced in the industrial zone, the meat produced in the livestock breeding workshop, etc.
This plan also aroused fierce debate and was finally fully implemented after half a year of deliberation.
At the beginning of the implementation, the human government issued 3,000 contribution points to each adult as starting capital. Moreover, every minor who reaches adulthood and leaves the Spark spacecraft and arrives at the human base on Sedna will receive the same amount. contribution points.
After that, all food, clothing, housing and transportation will require money. Similarly, at the beginning of each month, last month's salary will also be settled to people. The various salary standards have been formulated long before the preparations were made.
Simply put, the harder and more tiring the work is and the heavier the responsibilities, the higher the salary will be, up to a maximum of 10,000 contribution points per month. The easier the job, the lower the salary, but the minimum contribution point is two thousand. If you don't spend it arbitrarily, it is enough to support a person's survival with food and clothing.
As the leader of the human civilization government, Zhao Changxing's salary is 8,000 contribution points a month. The ones with the highest monthly salary are a few people in the chemical laboratory.
They have shown good chemical talents and made great contributions to the development of civilization. Their work is relatively dangerous and they deserve high wages. No one has any objection to this.
Sima Pingping left the Fire spacecraft as an adult the year before last and is currently working in the oxygen mining area with a monthly salary of 4,500 contribution points. These days were his days of rest, and he happened to return to Comprehensive Base No. 3. So yesterday he was fortunate enough to directly participate in the commercial reform plan meeting held by Zhao Changxing, and personally participated in the vote to pass the resolution.
But when the plan was finally passed, he began to feel a little confused.
For how many years, I have always had free food and clothing, so I don’t have to think too much, just work honestly. Now...does everything have to be paid for?
With some confusion, he left his residence and walked to the canteen as a habit, preparing to eat. But before he reached the canteen, he was attracted by a place with a big word "supermarket" hanging next to the canteen.
It used to be an activity room, why is it now a supermarket?
There were many people standing at the door of the supermarket, and the big furniture looked at each other, hesitating and not daring to go in.
Sima Pingping struggled to squeeze through, stood at the door, glanced inside from a distance, and immediately held his breath.
sky!
So many things!
Big, red apples were piled up like hills, exuding an alluring aroma. All kinds of exquisitely designed clothing hang on the shelves, attracting people's attention unscrupulously. Each braised chicken, braised duck, braised goose is rosy in color, and your stomach will start growling crazily once you take a look at it. There are all kinds of rice, noodles, grains and oils, even various decorations, and all kinds of snacks that you have never heard of or seen before...
A salesperson at the door enthusiastically solicited customers, but everyone stopped.
Sima Pingping didn't know what was going on, so he walked into the supermarket in a daze. By the time he reacted, he was already standing in front of the stall where braised chicken, braised duck, and braised goose were placed.
The alluring aroma penetrated his nostrils desperately. He ignored the enthusiastic introduction of the salesperson next to him and murmured: "How much does it cost?"
"Not expensive, not expensive, a braised chicken only costs 40 contribution points! Braised duck is 50, braised goose is 80!"
Sima Pingping quickly calculated his savings and said without any hesitation: "Let's have a braised chicken!"
"okay!"
A braised chicken was packed quickly, and the salesperson continued enthusiastically: "The apples just picked from the planting workshop only cost 10 contribution points each. Why don't you order some?"
Big red apples. In the past, it took an average of half a month to get one. Now you can buy it with only 10 contribution points, and there is no limit.
"Two of them!"
"okay!"
"Brother, don't you want to buy some clothes? The textile factory just released a new model yesterday!"
"purchase!"
"How about some melon seeds? Add enough aniseed to stir-fry them!"
"purchase!"
"The new snack from the food factory, spicy braised boneless pig's trotters! It's easy to eat, you can eat it right out of the bag! Take a bite when you're tired from work, tsk tsk!"
"purchase!"
"purchase!"
"purchase!"
The salesperson smiled broadly.
The more things he sells, the higher his commission will be.
When Sima Pingping came to the checkout counter carrying large and small bags of things, the number reported by the cashier with a sweet smile on his face made him instantly feel as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"A total of 1956 contribution points!"
"How much...how much?"
"1956!"
"me……"
Sima Ping's mouth was dry and he was speechless. But looking at the things in his hands, he didn't want to put any of them back.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and stretched out his hand. There is something similar to a watch on the wrist, and the personal chip is in it, and you can pay by just scanning it.
With a beeping sound, Sima Pingang felt as if something very precious had left him in a daze.
At this moment, the supermarket is already bustling with people carrying large and small bags. All kinds of goods were swept away one after another, and more were taken out of the warehouse and placed on the shelves.
Looking at the people frantically buying goods, Zhao Changxing had a faint smile on his face.
In order to build his credibility, he was ruthless. All materials were delivered directly to the warehouse and supplied in unlimited quantities. And...even though people are enjoying their purchases now, it is estimated that soon they will have to live frugally to survive.
In this way, won’t the enthusiasm for work be increased?
At this moment, there was laughter and laughter in the big dining hall. Almost everyone's dining table had one or two kinds of exquisite food that were not served in the large canteen. Everyone's mouth was full of oil and their eyes were shining.
This feasting scene lasted for five full days. After that, people began to appear in the big cafeteria who only ate a bowl of porridge or a steamed bun and were reluctant to buy food. In various corners of the comprehensive base, people who were talking down to their companions began to appear.
"Brother, lend me some money and I'll pay you back after my salary is paid next month."
"Me too, I have spent all my money on clothes..."
In order to cope with this situation, the cafeteria thoughtfully launched a credit dining service, which finally prevented people from going hungry.
"This kind of crazy consumption scene should not happen again next month."
Zhao Changxing thought silently.
But once again he was wrong. When the beginning of the next month finally arrived and the salary arrived, Zhao Changxing saw a crazy buying scene in the supermarket again. But he also saw that some people were reluctant to put down the goods in their hands, and finally left the supermarket after buying only a few things.
Sima Ping was one of them. After eating on credit for half a month last month and owing the cafeteria a full 300 contribution points, he finally learned his lesson.
"It's better to save some money to contribute this stuff."
He only held an apple in his hand and planned to go to the cafeteria to eat something to deal with the meal. His attention was suddenly attracted by a promotional video being played on the screen next to him.
After just one glance, he felt as if his throat was suddenly strangled, and his breathing began to become difficult.
"This this……"
