Capítulo 175: Chapter 175: The Federation's Bottomless Pit
Yan Xia didn't want to disrupt the current environment of the Federation.
The Federation's citizens had lived in this way for thousands of years, and if it were suddenly cut back, it would cause panic among some citizens.
The stability of the Federation itself is very necessary.
At the same time, there is another reason why the Federation's investment in infrastructure is too high, and the loss rate is too high if these infrastructures are recycled, making it a loss.
Yan Xia's proposed destructive energy utilisation plan was also well thought out.
Because the Federation's energy is not enough.
Yan Xia had noticed these problems before, but without further investigation, he handed them over to Ella to handle. He originally thought that with Ella's energy, these problems could be turned around, but now it seems that Ella is not omnipotent.
There are actually not many solutions to the Federation's current problems.
In Yan Xia's opinion, the most important thing is that the current number of Federation citizens is too small.
Compared to the vast starry sky, the number of 600 billion to 700 billion is too small, with less than 500 billion citizens in each star system. It is worth noting that a star city can easily accommodate more than 100 billion citizens.
The Mobius Ring World can carry even more citizens.
If there is only one citizen per square kilometre, then the entire Mobius Ring World can carry 32 billion billion citizens.
How many citizens are there in the Mobius Ring World now?
Since Yan Xia first arrived, the number of citizens has doubled, and this number is now 100 billion.
This means that the current density of the Mobius Ring World is one citizen per 32,000 square kilometres, which is equivalent to one person in a province of the South China Sea and only 3,000 people living on the entire Earth's land.
The current Federation has reached its economic, resource, and infrastructure limits, but the number of citizens has not.
If the total number of Federation citizens exceeds 100 billion, then some problems can be solved.
The number of citizens actually affects the internal economic flow.
It's still a relatively old topic.
Back to the original content.
The Federation must give more to the Federation's internal affairs, allowing public ownership to become private ownership. This was discussed by Yan Xia and Ella several years ago, but there has been no progress.
Because the current Federation is already too luxurious, if more energy is invested in the individual within the Federation, then the citizens of the Federation will have terrifying funds, almost instantly achieving universal well-being.
Is this good?
For the ordinary citizens of the Federation, this is simply the best.
But what use is this to the Federation?
Ordinary citizens have ten or a hundred times more money, but this money only brings about social and economic growth, and cannot be converted into the growth of the Federation's economy or actual benefits.
Therefore, since the beginning of the discussion of this problem, after so many years, Ella has still not taken any action.
The original idea was to let the companies within the Federation develop the Triangle Star Domain, but now it seems that there are still drawbacks.
The more these star domains are developed, the more funds are invested, and there is no return at all. As Ella said, even if these companies invest all their assets, the things they build are slums compared to the Federation's star cities.
This way, the Federation's companies will become poorer and poorer, not richer and richer.
Yan Xia checked the funds of these companies and found another terrifying thing: the debts of these companies are too high. A company with a market value of one billion owes the Federation's banks four billion.
Unimaginable.
It's hard to imagine how these companies can repay this huge sum of money. Even with an annual interest rate of 1%, the interest is a terrifying 400 million, and these companies can't even repay it by selling their pants.
The current Federation is only superficially prosperous.
One hundred yuan is used to achieve one yuan of effect, and this one yuan of investment only produces one cent of return, and it's not one cent every year, but one percent interest is taken from this one cent every year, which is 0.01 cent.
The Federation's annual investment of 9,999 out of 10,000 has no return and no output, and the remaining one out of 10,000 investments only recovers one percent interest.
This is equivalent to a country on Earth investing 100 billion yuan every year, and when the financial report is opened at the end of the year, the total government revenue is only 1 million yuan, with an investment payback period of 1 million years. The key is that 100 billion yuan must be invested again next year, and this must continue every year.
If this continues, Yan Xia can imagine that in the newly developed star system, the 100 billion yuan invested in construction will eventually only serve a few tens of thousands of citizens.
A bottomless pit.
The more Yan Xia understands, the more terrifying it becomes.
So, returning to the original question, the most suitable point of the destructive energy utilisation plan is that there is no need to invest more money in the star system to build things like Dyson clouds and Dyson rings, or to think about the problem of long-term returns.
Destroying a star to collect resources and then bringing these resources back as supplies is enough, even if the collected energy is only one ten-thousandth or one millionth of the entire star.
Although this approach is somewhat like fishing in a dried-up pond, the universe is not a small Earth, and the universe has too many resources. These energies are not like trees or fish that require long-term cycles. Even if a star is destroyed, the star's matter will not disappear, but will form a nebula, making it even easier to extract.
The plan has been made.
Ella's actions are also very quick.
Within 10 hours, she drafted the details of the destructive energy utilisation plan, and it is expected that the first star will be mined within 500 years.
Why does it take so long? It is still necessary to choose a star that is far enough away, otherwise destroying the star may affect the surrounding star systems. It is difficult to react immediately within a few light-years, and a few dozen light-years is more appropriate.
The shortest distance in Ella's plan is 25 light-years.
These energies will be used for military purposes, and secondly, they will be invested in the growth of the number of citizens. Yan Xia asked Ella to temporarily slow down the investment in infrastructure, as the current return cycle is too long, not one year, not ten thousand years, but ten thousand years as a starting point, and some are even directly over one hundred million years.
The existence of the Federation itself is a problem.
After hurting many brain cells, Yan Xia returned to his own scientific research.
From the biological battleship, Yan Xia actually saw another possibility: can the biological battleship itself be connected to consciousness, that is, can life directly control the biological battleship, instead of giving orders from the command room and letting the battleship's computer process the content?
If this can be realised, it will have a huge impact on the Federation's future combat mode.
