Chapter 287 The Strategy of the Four Alliances
Liu Lingshan never thought that Su Ming was a time traveler. She now regarded Su Ming as a native resident of Dongyang Island. However, Dongyang Island was an island ruled by old nobles a long time ago. The residents of the island had never received a proper education, so it was normal for them not to know unimportant common sense.
Now, she wanted to teach Su Ming the common sense that a commissioner of the Investigation Bureau must know.
"Do you know the differences in policies and strategies among the four major alliances?" Liu Lingshan turned to look at Cass and Gu Dongshu.
"Pfft! There's no need to know this, right?" Cass let out his signature strange laugh. "We're just here to help. What the people above are thinking is none of our business."
"What about you?" Liu Lingshan raised his chin slightly and pointed at Gu Dongshu.
"I think as long as I keep getting stronger, I will be able to keep getting promoted in the league, and I will know what I need to know in time." Gu Dongshu replied seriously. Looking at his serious expression, he seemed to think that his answer was quite good.
Liu Lingshan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Qin Qingfeng gets 0 points for being the captain. You still need to know some important policies . Since we have more time this time, let me teach you... First of all, you should know which four major alliances are, right?"
"Of course. Among the Luhe Alliance, Alien Alliance, Freedom Alliance and Seven Gods Alliance, our Seventh Bureau belongs to the Seven Gods Alliance." Gu Dongshu sat upright on the edge of the bed, looking like a model student, as if he was taking some kind of apprenticeship assessment.
"good."
Liu Lingshan nodded, which was considered as the minimum recognition of Gu Dongshu.
“Let’s talk about the differences between the four major alliances first. First of all, the goals of the four major alliances are the same, which is to make life better for mankind. However, because of different philosophies of the leadership, the emphasis on resource utilization is also different.
What do you think is the most urgent problem to be solved in order to make human society a better place? Tell me first. "
Liu Lingshan pointed at Gu Dongshu.
"Uh... I think demons and monsters are too dangerous. The most important thing is to give humans the power to kill these monsters so that humans can survive safely."
"What about you?" Liu Lingshan looked at Cass.
Cass laughed strangely: "People are more dangerous than monsters! Just look at the changes in the world in the past few hundred years. Those three doctrines are simply..."
"Stop, I already know what you're thinking. What about you, Xiao Ming?"
"I?"
Su Ming looked at Liu Lingshan, who was smiling, and thought for a moment before hesitating and saying, "I think...it is indeed most important to provide humans with a safe social environment."
"So, comprehensively speaking, Gu Dongshu and Xiao Ming are indeed suitable for the Seven Gods Alliance, but it would be better for Cass to go to the Free Alliance."
"Why?"
"For ideological reasons, although the four major alliances have the same ultimate goal, they have huge differences in execution strategy and philosophy. The Inhuman Alliance believes that the popularization of education for people with special abilities and the advancement of eugenics are the way for all mankind to develop together, so they believe that there should be strict classes in marriage.
In addition, the Superhuman Alliance has the most superpower schools and the largest number of superpower people.
The Luhe Alliance believes that regional unification is the fastest way to development. It focuses on regional governance and unification, attaches the most importance to transportation and resource delivery. It has the largest air force among the four major alliances and the most industries.
To put it simply, it is the richest. The airship we are riding now is the airship of the Luhe Alliance.
The transportation network of the Luhe Alliance is completely free for the Seven Gods Alliance and discounted for other alliances. In the future, you can also use the Investigation Bureau's documents for private travel.
In addition to the Luhe Alliance and the Alien Alliance, the Freedom Alliance and the Seven Gods Alliance also have their own philosophies.
The Freedom Alliance feels that morally corrupt supernatural beings have a more dangerous impact on society, so they spend most of their time dealing with morally corrupt supernatural criminals. The Freedom Alliance has the largest intelligence network, the civilian intelligence network, and they invest the most in public security resources.
We, the Seven Gods Alliance, believe that if humans want to develop, we must first deal with monsters and demons, and we must do whatever it takes to achieve this goal. Therefore, we need to gather a large number of humans with strong combat capabilities, and even use the bad guys who don’t follow the basic rules. "
Liu Lingshan said in one breath, and finally made a summary: "In short, if a person wants to join the alliance, he should consider what he wants. Otherwise, he may not get what he wants, but his life will be lost soon."
Su Ming nodded silently, thinking that he had learned a lot. This kind of concept could not be found on the Internet. The introduction of the alliance on the Internet was all for the common happiness of mankind, but there was no detailed analysis of the specific strategic measures.
"Master, I have a question." Su Ming raised his hand and asked.
"explain."
"Where do the alliance get all these resources? Is it just collecting taxes?" Su Ming asked.
If it were an ordinary organization, building infrastructure and improving people's livelihood would be completely sufficient through taxation, but it is obvious that the alliance is not an ordinary organization. The salaries it pays its employees are ridiculously high, especially the post-death benefits.
Those benefits include compensation of tens of millions, higher education qualifications for children, bonuses for completing important tasks while alive, etc. These are huge expenses. The mortality rate of people in the Investigation Bureau is also particularly high. At this rate of spending, it is hard to imagine how the alliance can be maintained.
"Good question. Of course it can't be about collecting taxes. Even a giant like the Alliance will worry about money, but each alliance has a different profit model. The Luhe Alliance is no exception. They are a group of businessmen. Money is not a problem for them. How to reduce the casualties of alliance members is the top priority.
The Free Alliance makes profits by selling intelligence, and they have established the world's largest and fairest intelligence exchange platform, charging transaction commissions.
A large number of intelligence dealers are selling their intelligence on it. Even if the intelligence is very unpopular, it is easy to find buyers. For people engaged in intelligence work, this platform is like the relationship between computers and modern people. As an intelligence dealer, it is absolutely impossible to leave the Free Alliance platform.
As for the Inhuman Alliance... um..."
Liu Lingshan lowered his head, and for the first time a complicated expression appeared on his face, as if what he was going to say next was difficult to summarize.
"The Inhuman Alliance gives people the feeling that they are selling marriage rights. Their philosophy is very special. They think that ordinary humans are different from those with superpowers after all, but in the future, equality for all must be maintained as much as possible, so they think that humans' autonomy in marriage must be abandoned in the short term.
The Inhuman Alliance classifies outliers into different levels, and marriage requires one to be strong and the other to be weak. In order for an inhuman to marry, inhumans of the same level must not marry.
They calculated the average abnormal value of people with special abilities in society, and then formulated a special marriage selection method based on the laws of eugenics. As long as spouses are chosen according to their marriage method, the abnormal value of human offspring will gradually be averaged out.
With the continuous averaging, except for a few mutants, most of the abnormal values of humans will be roughly the same, thus achieving the goal of all humans entering the era of superpowers."
"I've been working here for a few years, but I had no idea the Alien Alliance was such an organization. It sounds really unreliable." Gu Dongshu said with a frown.
Liu Lingshan smiled and said, "It's actually quite reliable. If all human beings follow their logic, then in just a few hundred years, the entire human society will really become a society where everyone has abnormalities.
But this strategy also has big problems. The only problem is that this beautiful ideal is difficult to implement because this system is too anti-human.”
"Then how do they make money?" Su Ming asked.
"They attach great importance to education and have the most schools for supernatural beings. They also have the largest number of supernatural beings. As long as you are willing to join, you can receive social welfare that is higher than the average level. However, if you join the Supernatural Alliance, you must obey the marriage rules of the Supernatural Alliance.
If you want to find someone stronger than you, you will have to pay a higher price. If you are willing to find someone weaker than you, you can get other rewards besides superpowers, such as money, power, and other things.
In addition, ordinary people can also join the Inhuman Alliance, as long as they pay high taxes regularly. Many human tycoons have joined the Inhuman Alliance in order to become superpowers. In order to make their offspring superpowers and their families superpower families, they are willing to accept a serious reduction in the family business. "
Liu Lingshan's words reminded Su Ming of the distribution of social property. The inheritance of supernatural powers is actually very similar to the distribution of property. Rich people always tend to look for people of equal status. If a rich man finds a white-collar worker, then this is a dilution of personal property.
Su Ming had never seen a policy like this in his previous life, and he couldn't figure out how to make those wealthy people willingly dilute their wealth. So when he heard about the dilution of supernatural power values, Su Ming's first thought was that it was unreliable.
Of course, there are individual exceptions, but it is hard to believe that a powerful psychic would marry an ordinary man, or that a powerful male psychic would marry an ordinary woman, and that this phenomenon could be considered a common phenomenon in society.
However, since the Inhuman Alliance can be called an alliance, perhaps they have really come up with a special solution to make this seemingly impossible thing feasible, otherwise the Inhuman Alliance cannot be called one of the four major alliances.
Compared to the Alien Alliance, Su Ming was actually more curious about the money-making model of the Seven Gods Alliance. After all, their Investigation Bureau was fighting monsters all day long, and the salary was so high. This kind of work was very counterintuitive.
"How does our alliance... make money?" Su Ming asked.
"The number and area of islands ruled by the Seven Gods Alliance are the smallest among all alliances, so the impact of monsters is also the smallest. A large part of the time, our alliance is sent out to help other alliances deal with difficult monsters in exchange for high commissions. Simply put, it is exchanging lives for money." Liu Lingshan said.
Su Ming nodded slightly, as if he understood something.
