This answer made the top master of the Red Dragon Army look at Meng Chao in a new light again.

"So, are you thinking about the future five hundred years from now, not just thirty to fifty years from now?"

Shao Zhengyang took a deep look at Meng Chao and sighed, "Meng Chao, you are truly the most special young man I have ever seen in my life.

"No, I'm not talking about strength.

"Things like strength, realm, combat effectiveness, etc., relying on extraordinary talent, chance, and astronomical accumulation of resources, there are always ways to reach or even surpass them.

"I believe that as Dragon City Civilization masters more and more resources, our science and technology develops with each passing day, and the cultivation system becomes more and more perfect, the people of Dragon City in the future will always become stronger and stronger, and countless transcendences will emerge.

Your and my existence.

"But your mentality and structure are so surprising that the word 'weird' is not an exaggeration to describe it.

"Honestly, if I had such a realm, career and power at your age, my mentality would definitely not be as stable as yours.

"I will definitely have extremely strong desires and ambitions, eager to do whatever it takes to improve my realm and expand my power, and strive to make my company the tenth largest super company controlling Dragon City as soon as possible, and then from the 'tenth'

, climb to the throne of 'first'.

"Even if I wasn't blinded by selfish desires, facing all kinds of constraints and responsibilities, I would definitely be unconvinced in my heart.

“I will feel that everything I have is based on my own hands, starting from scratch and working hard.

"My realm comes from my extraordinary talent and crazy practice; my resources come from going deep into the wilderness and fog, risking a narrow escape to kill monsters; my connections come from countless times of living and dying together, and executing suicide attacks with the strong.

Mission - I can be where I am today entirely because of myself.

"So, why should I pay such a high tax, why should I hand over a large amount of natural materials and treasures to Dragon City, why should I obey the authorities' instructions and carry out various thankless and extremely dangerous tasks?

Why should I be on an equal footing with ordinary people who are helpless and extremely poor? Why should I take out real money from the profits that my company has finally earned and invest them in these ordinary people and fill them forever?

In a dissatisfied appetite?

"Why can't I use the profits and resources I have earned to do as I please, without having to follow all laws and regulations, to march into the depths of another world, to reach unprecedented places, to open up new territories, to destroy mountains and temples, and to travel freely?

To create a hegemony that belongs entirely to me?

"I believe, not just me, but any extraordinary person at your age who has such power as you will more or less think so."

"I've thought so too."

Meng Chao was silent for a long time before he thought about how to respond.

He did not deceive Shao Zhengyang.

In his previous life, he had indeed had a sweet dream about "how to control the wind and rain and dominate after gaining great power."

The beautiful scenery and luxury in the dream were ten times more exaggerated than what Shao Zhengyang described!

It's a pity that manpower is sometimes poor. Even if your own hegemony is brilliant, so what?

When the doomsday comes, aren't we going to be wiped out together with the Dragon City Civilization?

"However, maybe it's because I come from an old community like Tianfuyuan, and I have been a member of the lower class of Longcheng since I was a child. Many of my relatives and friends are extremely ordinary citizens. Even today, they are

I am still making trivial contributions in extremely ordinary positions, so I know better than any strong young man from a wealthy family how important these 'trivial contributions' are."

Meng Chao took a deep breath, word by word, and said seriously, "What I am today is definitely not 'completely dependent on myself,' but relies on the concerted efforts of countless ordinary citizens and grassroots soldiers.

"If countless ordinary neighbors had not risked their lives and fought bloody battles to the end in the past half century, our 'Tin Fu Yuan' would have been invaded by monsters long ago. I would have filled the gap between the monster's teeth while I was still learning to speak.

"If it weren't for thousands of grassroots soldiers without psychic powers, relying on their flesh and blood to form a steel defense line, blocking the overwhelming tide of beasts and holding back most of the monster civilization's troops, I and other extraordinary people would

, it is not that easy to take the heads of high-level monsters from the Ten Thousand Arms.

"If there weren't so many helpless scientists and researchers working day and night to explore the mysteries of life sciences, the physiological structure of monsters, the astronomy and geography of other worlds, and the mysteries of spiritual magnetic fields hidden deep in countless runes,

It is neither possible for me to master so many special moves, nor to create the "Extreme Style" with Teacher Gu Jianbo, or to form the "Remnant Star Club", let alone talk about it.

"Also, the 'nano battle suit' I am wearing, the super alloy sword in my hand, the revolving shotgun inlaid with crystals and engraved with runes, the drones surrounding me, and the thinking tank

And biochemical beasts...these things that can help me improve my combat effectiveness are all the hard work of all Dragon City citizens, directly or indirectly.

"If there wasn't all this and I was the only commander, why would I have to fight against the overwhelming tide of beasts?

"In the future, my combat effectiveness will continue to improve, and one day I will even break through to the divine realm!

"But no matter how high I am in cultivation, facing such a vast alien continent and a starry sky that is vaster and deeper than the alien world, my personal strength is too weak and insignificant.

"If I didn't have the entire Dragon City as my strong backing, I would be unable to move even in the other world or in the starry sky.

"So, I will never forget the source of my strength, and I will never forget the contributions made by the general public to me. I am always willing to listen to the call of Dragon City Civilization and fight for my homeland and compatriots!"

Shao Zhengyang was moved.

After being silent for a long time, he sighed and said with regret: "Meng Chao, Meng Chao, it would be great if all the extraordinary people in Dragon City were as enlightened as you!"

Meng Chao's mind was racing, he narrowed his eyes and said: "Uncle Shao, the so-called 'sun never sets theory', I have never heard of this name before I came into contact with 'Micro Brain' and devoted myself to practice it. In just ten days and a half, it became

It has become so widespread that everyone knows about it. Even senior military officials like you, who have many things to do, have felt its influence.

"It seems that it doesn't come out of nowhere, but rather that some kind of... public opinion is prepared?"

"That's right, Meng Chao, chatting with you will save you worries and let you know everything in detail."

Shao Zhengyang leaned forward, lowered his voice, and said, "Did you know that many members of the Ninth National Congress are preparing to jointly propose a new bill to upgrade the temporary "Enclosure Act" into a real law?

"

"this--"

Meng Chao was slightly startled.

The "Enclosure Decree" was a temporary decree issued by Dragon City after the battle where the beasts besieged Dragon City more than half a year ago.

The situation at that time was that in the battle outside Dragon City, the monster civilization lost all its elites and its main force collapsed. The entire strategic situation suddenly changed from a stalemate between the two sides to a situation where the monster civilization was completely defeated and fled, giving up a large number of rich resources.

The paradise of heaven and earth.

In order to seize the fleeting fighter opportunity and devour and absorb the resource-rich areas around Dragon City as quickly as possible and on the largest scale, which were originally shrouded in fog and controlled by monsters, the Survival Committee promulgated the "Enclosure Ordinance".

This regulation encourages large and small businesses and ordinary citizens in Dragon City to leave the main urban area and march into the wilderness, the fog, and the monster's lair.

As long as we can use force to seize the land, forests, mineral veins and monster habitats that do not originally belong to Dragon City, and hold on until the large forces advance and establish a permanent defense line, all the rights and interests of this land to be mined in the next ninety-nine years will belong to

Owned by the original "enclosers".

What the landowners have to pay is just a very low, almost free tax.

At that time, the promulgation of the "Enclosure Act" was necessary and reasonable.

Because no one can figure out the depth of monster civilization, no one can imagine that monster civilization will be defeated like a mountain, collapse so quickly and simply, giving up more than 70% of the area in the monster mountain range almost overnight.

Even Meng Chao, affected by the memory fragments of his previous life, felt that even if the monster civilization lost all its main forces, relying on the monsters' fearlessness, strong reproductive capacity, and familiarity with the environment around the lair, if they were determined to fight to the end,

, Dragon City Civilization will also face a tug-of-war with every inch of mountains and rivers and every inch of blood.

The battle still needs to be fought!

Under such circumstances, running to the depths of the wilderness where the fog has just lifted and monsters may counterattack at any time to "enclose the territory" is undoubtedly a risk to one's life and a narrow escape from death.

In order to stimulate the enthusiasm of all citizens, and to allow the warriors who have given up their lives to return home to receive their due rewards, and to end this damn war that has been delayed for decades as soon as possible, the development rights for ninety-nine years are a very reasonable price.

.

However, the rapid collapse of monster civilization has caused very serious problems in the actual operation of the "Enclosure Act".

Although in theory, all citizens and all enterprises, regardless of big or small, strong or weak, high or low, have the right to compete in the Monster Mountain Range.

But in practice, it is obvious that the most powerful people and super enterprises will take advantage.

First of all, this regulation was originally proposed by several congressmen from nine major super companies.

Before the regulations were passed, the nine super-enterprises made careful preparations for staking their claim.

Secondly, establishing an advance base in the wilderness is by no means an easy task.

Compared with ordinary citizens and small and medium-sized enterprises who are alone and lack force and technology, the nine super enterprises are undoubtedly more experienced and can withstand the risk of annihilation of several advanced bases.

Therefore, when the "Land Enclosure Act" was just promulgated, and most ordinary citizens and small and medium-sized enterprises were still hesitating or making early preparations, advance teams affiliated to the nine major super enterprises, which had been sharpening their swords for a long time, had already arrived.
