That’s it, it’s been a hundred years since Riley Star departed...

On this day, a few old friends were meeting in private, Sitting in the room are basically Zhang Yuan, Li Zhendong and Ye Kaifu and other first-generation astronauts who set off from Earth. They look at the magnificent scenery of the universe and express their feelings about their age.

For high-level officials like Zhang Yuan, the hibernation and waking time are kept at around 3:1, while the average person is about 9:1. Therefore, the ten years experienced by the ordinary person are the 25 years experienced by Zhang Yuan.

"Time is really like flowing water. Speaking of it, I can still recall the time when we just set off from Earth...it was a time travel of won but never returned."

"How many years has it been now, 5576, almost 3,500 years..."

"haha, I never remember the year, because I always confuse the current era!"

Talking about this, everyone suddenly has a wonderful sense of unreality in their hearts. That is to say, most of you here have lived for 3,500 years, even if the overwhelming majority time is hibernating...but After such a long time, it is here.

Even the Kunlun Mountains started more than two hundred years ago.

The journey to the interstellar trading market has only passed one third.

"The interstellar trading market is only the first destination in the Kunlun Mountains, and there are second, third, and perhaps even more ambitious goals." Zhang Yuan couldn't help but overwhelmed by emotions , "What a great journey... it takes several generations of relays to complete the first interstellar journey!"

"It is indeed exaggerated. The Millennium Old Turtle is not so Long life!" Li Zhendong also shook the head at the back, playing said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Lao Ye, Old Zhang, I have retired. When are you going to retire? When you are old, there is no need to hibernate for a long time. Now..."

"Only when you are awake can you really live. If you enter the hibernation state, even if you live for 10,000 years, 100 million years, what's the point? It’s just a closed eye It’s nothing. For such a long time, it’s completely blank."

"Did you say me?" Ye Kaifu licked his lips and took a sip of water from his teacup: "It should be soon, now. The body is still healthy and can last for a while. When you reach the next planet, let the youngsters practice it, and you can basically retire. The old-age life is also good."

As a big in the Kunlun Mountains The engineer, Ye Kaifu, is mainly responsible for the mining of planet resources. This project is the top priority during the rectification and maintenance of the Kunlun Mountains. Without resources to supplement, spaceship impossible spans a distance of several light years.

"Basically, I plan to do the same. When all the staff wake up, I can retire and handover." Zhang Yuan nodded said.

"Retired, retired, and finally I can spend my old age peacefully. Now it is not suitable for hibernation. If all kinds of hibernation diseases come, it will be very painful!" Li Zhendong kneaded I don’t know why, but sometimes I feel pain in my knee joints. According to the doctor’s diagnosis, it was caused by hibernation when I was getting older. The long-term pain made him want to change his bionic leg.

"By the way, in a while, our brothers can go to the newly opened lawn park to play golf, cultivate and cultivate, strive to live a few more years, and pay the pension, no matter how earned Come back."

Li Zhendong is trying his best to live a few more years, wanting to gather the wool of the whole society...

Of course, it is a normal civilization to let the elderly enjoy their old age. What should be done, the new civilization has also been prepared for it for a long time.

In ancient times, there was a saying that Qin Shihuang gave an order to bury him alive when he was 60 years old. The reason is very ridiculous. It is actually a waste of national food because of the lack of labor ability of the old people.

But this should be a rumor. The historical materials have not even found the "buried alive". Respect the old and cherish the young is the tradition of Xia Country.

There is also the Yuan Dynasty. After the Central Plains was unified, it implemented a cruel high-pressure policy. It not only divided the Central Plains into several classes, but also adopted a 60-year-old burying policy to humiliate the Han people and reduce the population. Purpose.

If this is a rumor, no one knows.

In short, a sound pension system is the cornerstone of future social stability.

The productivity of the Kunlun Mountains is tens of thousands of times higher than that unknown in ancient times. The pension system has also been perfected. The entire civilization will usher in the first batch of about two to three million people in several decades in the future. The aging tide.

Zhang Yuan smiled and replied, "That's right, after arriving at the next planet, after handing over the work, I shouldn’t be hibernating again... But the whole work handover process is not It's that easy, it may take several years."

"...Golf? It's a boring activity. I would rather go to the virtual world to travel or play regular sports like badminton. .You should live for a few more years, and you won’t die halfway, right?"

"There is no problem living for another fifty years!" Li Zhendong patted his chest, lowered his head and took a sip of water, and said excitedly: "I want to plan the fifty years of my life. I don't need to work hard now. It feels too cool and easy..."

"I just want to sleep in bed and see The youngster brags about my achievements when I was young..."

He lay on the chair carefreely, imagined the future scenes, and began to brag about it all the time.

This guy has done the handover work for retirement a few days ago, and has a lot of free time all day long!

In fact, Zhang Yuan knew that Li Zhendong was just a little empty in his heart for a while, otherwise, why would he often run into the institute?

Even if Li Zhendong retires at an old age, he is a hundred times stronger than the youngster just entered!

But having said that, giving the position to the talented youngster is also something that should be done... Although the Peak of human intelligence can be maintained for a long time, the creative ability will always decrease with the decline of energy .

Zhang Yuan himself is also preparing for retirement.

Aging is indeed the most terrifying enemy of mankind. Even though he has delayed aging through long-term hibernation, it is only delaying it.

Being getting older, all the body’s functions are degraded, in this case forced hibernation, after waking up, a variety of comprehensive symptoms are likely to occur, such as memory loss, paralysis of the whole body, and neurons. A large number of deaths and other symptoms.

So many of their old people of this generation no longer hibernate. After handing over work, they can enjoy their old age in several decades. As for how the new civilization develops, it can only be a pain for the people of New Generation.

"How many candidates are there for the captain?"

Zhang Yuan said: "There are probably two or three good seeds..."

In the new civilization There are so many talents, it is very easy to choose a successor. For example, Ye Junchang of the military department played a big role in the last interstellar war. The command and military capabilities are beyond ordinary people. It's also quite appropriate to see.

There is also Li Cheng Academician of the Secretariat, who has long been a deputy captain. He has a good set of skills in dealing with interpersonal issues and familiarity with spaceship.

Of course, if there is no special accident, the captain is a high-level cadre in the scientific council.

A large number of important decisions are made through joint discussions. The middle-level and lower-level management rely on big data AI. This management model is gradually recognized by people.

"Then, the next planet will be the focus of the succession of the new and old generations."
