Thousands of miles of rice fields, and no hunger or suffering in prosperous times.
Bai Shi shook his head without hesitation, with a hint of longing in his eyes.
She was born in a wealthy family, but because of family changes and Li Yi's medical expenses, she worked as a low-level takeaway for several years. She slept in a damp and wet basement and did tiring and hard work.
It is very easy to get enough food in China, but people are driven by various needs and are constantly running around for a living.
Education, medical care, housing, etc. are all "32 taels". Working hard all year to earn 30 taels, the next year you owe 2 taels more.
As time went by, tenant farmers who lost their land came into being.
Now they are called house slaves.
"If we don't have to work hard to make a living, is the productivity of the cultivation world so high?"
"Is it possible that in many cases the productivity of society is sufficient to feed everyone and keep people well fed and clothed?"
"Do you think that in this era, can everyone be well fed and clothed? Even well fed and well clothed?"
Taiyin Xingjun's words silenced Bai Shiwen. Although she only graduated from high school, she actually received higher education and had completed her studies before she dropped out.
Can this era ensure that everyone has enough food and clothing?
The answer is definitely yes, but have they done it?
The former was achieved, but the latter not so much.
Shiraishi couldn't help but fall into pessimism.
As a veteran Internet activist, Ms. Bai has always been concerned about national affairs, especially those around her, such as the city's drainage system, which has always been a concern of hers.
She lives in a basement that gets flooded whenever there is a flood.
It is also for this reason that Miss Bai, who usually has no entertainment activities, has become a master of high-intensity keyboard skills.
It's not that she has no achievements. For example, she contributed to a series of recent improvements made by the government.
Li Yi showed a helpless smile and said, "Absolute equality does not exist. Disparity in the world is the norm. The era I ruled was not as good as Tu'er said. The material conditions were much worse than they are now."
"Let me give you a simple example. During the heyday, ordinary people had enough rice and flour, but they couldn't have meat every meal. Except for the rich, eating one meal every three days was considered good. As for entertainment, they could only practice martial arts or some folk sports. How could it be as fun as a mobile phone?"
Li Yi sighed sincerely, and the action of typing on the keyboard never stopped until he made another step forward in the 5000th level of Candy Crush Saga.
"This era is much more fun than my era. I don't have the ability to provide meat for every meal and many entertainment options for the people of the world."

Tu'er thinks his rule is extremely good. If Li Yi were to evaluate it, it would be like an old donkey pulling a millstone, which is hard and tiring!
Life was not as good as it is now. Every day I just played games, drank tea, played mahjong from time to time, or went to a bath center.
It would be more comfortable if I didn’t have to pay taxes on weekends.
"Material conditions determine everything. Compared with modern times, I can only offer relative fairness."
Li Yi and Tu'er's evaluations are at two extremes.
If it were in the past, Bai Shi would definitely believe Li Yi, as well as the influence of past stereotypes. How could the ancient times be comparable to the modern times?
But now she has figured out Li Yi's character. If this guy is humble, then things must be complicated.
Just like he said he is not the best in the world, he is just the second best in many things.
Until now, those powerful men who claimed to be the best in the world have been beaten into small pieces by him.
“How fair is that?”
"Let me think about it."
Li Yi flipped through his distant memories.
During this period, whenever he had free time, he would look over his memories of the period after the flood. As he expected, many memories did not disappear, but were not vivid enough and had become blurred.
No one will always remember what they did at work.
The memories that are remembered are either painful or happy, but not boring.
But the loss of memory still exists, which is the last time he was in seclusion. The specific reason is unknown, but he is sure that it is related to the way of heaven.
Du Shi and Qiong Yu are both like this.
The true spirit exists in heaven and earth, and the memories related to the destruction of the way of heaven will naturally disappear as well.
This is what Li Yi got from observing Qiong Yu. This is the case with the other party. The way of cultivating the heavens will store a wisp of true spirit in the heaven and earth, and gain the eyes of the heavens that can see through all things.
I can't be sure whether it is true or not, but I finally have a direction.
[Master, this is the summary of people’s living standards that I investigated…]
The sweet and clear voice of the rabbit suddenly sounded, and a distant picture flashed through my mind.
The white-haired woman handed him a book.
Li Yi replied: "The most direct manifestation is in food. The Immortal Palace can guarantee that every adult has one pound of rice and flour every day, and has spare money to see a doctor, drink tea, and engage in some inexpensive entertainment."
"The Fairy Palace can ensure that children can read and write, but it cannot provide twelve years of compulsory education like Shenzhou does now."
"The Fairy Palace can guarantee that everyone has a place to live, but it cannot provide them with the cleanliness and convenience of a modern city. It can guarantee that they have 1/3 of their time a year to rest and entertain themselves, but the Fairy Palace cannot provide a variety of entertainment."
"After the busy farming season, the people could only sit under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village, drink tea to escape the heat, watch the sun rise and set, and live a life that they could predict the end of."
Li Yi described the world he ruled from his own perspective.
All aspects were treated with the utmost fairness, and Li Changsheng did his best to provide the best conditions for the people of the world.
