Chương 73: Chapter 73: Decentralization and the Human Boom
Decentralization was something Yan Xia had been considering for a long time.
In reality, he didn't have many tasks to manage, and most of the work was still organized by Ella.
However, Ella, as an artificial intelligence, could observe various aspects but might not accurately analyze the needs and emotional expressions of life forms.
As the number of life forms increased, Ella had begun to allocate more and more of her computational power to managing life forms, which was clearly inappropriate.
These trivial matters should not occupy Ella's computational resources.
It's like having five chicken knives and five beef knives in a slaughterhouse. If there are many more chickens than cows, moving the beef knives to the chicken slaughter area is unreasonable. You can kill a chicken with a sharpened stone, but you can't substitute other tools for slaughtering cows.
Therefore, a more cost-effective method of managing the Civilization Federation's units was required.
This might reduce management efficiency, but overall, it was a step forward.
Yan Xia asked Ella to hold meetings within the Civilization Federation to select managers for various levels and began to establish administrative levels within the Federation.
The highest level is the Civilization Federation Council, followed by the council of each civilization, the star domain leader for each administrative star domain, the planet leader for each planet, the regional leader for each region within a planet, and the mayor for each city within a region.
These are the seven major administrative levels, and there are even more minor divisions. When combined, there may be over a billion positions.
Of course, decentralization of power does not mean the disappearance of Yan Xia's authority.
He remains the leader of the Civilization Federation, with the power to make decisions about any life form within the Federation.
Moreover, decentralization has more than one benefit.
It implies that there is more room for advancement within the Civilization Federation, and greater competition for advancement will bring intense internal struggles. As long as these struggles are within a controllable range, they will provide tremendous vitality to the Federation.
In simple terms, when everyone has hope for the future, they will naturally work harder.
The same is true for ordinary people.
When someone in a position competes for a higher position, the lower position becomes vacant, providing an opportunity for ordinary people.
According to Ella's calculations, the new administrative level system will create 6 million internal positions and 350 million external positions within the Civilization Federation.
Of course, these positions will not be handed out easily.
Any individual seeking power must make exceptional contributions.
For example, they could go to the battlefield or promote economic development and stability in their administrative regions.
This decentralization also sparked unprecedented development within the entire Tian Cang Wu, as numerous factories began manufacturing warships for the battlefield, intending to stir up a storm in the surrounding star domains.
...
However, these were not Yan Xia's concerns after decentralization.
Once the power was delegated, he would have more leisure time.
He wouldn't have to personally handle everything, although he seemed to have a lot of free time. In reality, many decisions required his input, after which Ella would handle the details.
After this decentralization, he also began to focus on managing his store.
He served customers, witnessing their falls and triumphs.
Unknowingly, three hundred years passed.
During these years, his several human-like clones sent him memory fragments, allowing him to witness wars several light-years or even dozens of light-years away.
At this time, they had conquered 18 of the 26 star systems originally controlled by the Purple Thorn Civilization, including six priority star systems with intelligent life.
In other words, the Civilization Federation now controlled nine civilizations and possessed 19 star systems, spanning a territory of 31 light-years.
Almost simultaneously, the humans, who had finally stabilized, experienced a boom.
Their population grew from one million to 130 million. This was due to humans having their own planet, the influence of the Explorers Association, and Yan Xia's decentralization.
Combined, these factors increased humans' desire to have children.
It was no longer like before, where material satisfaction led to a decline in the desire to have children, and some even chose not to have children.
In fact, if it weren't for the highly advanced technology and entertainment in the Civilization Federation, the human population should have surpassed 100 million by now, and they should be on their way to 300 million.
Fortunately, the universe is vast, and the Civilization Federation has ample time to wait.
Yan Xia also granted some privileges to humans, ensuring they maintained a relatively dominant position within the Federation.
For example, among the top 100 richest individuals in the Civilization Federation, 26 were humans, even though humans currently make up less than one-thousandth of the Federation's population.
Humans are also more prevalent in higher-level academies, decision-making bodies, and among the Explorers. In the top ten Explorer teams, every team includes humans, and two of these teams are human-led.
These are the results of Yan Xia's deliberate efforts to elevate humans' status within the Civilization Federation.
Currently, the most common advice parents of other races give their children is, "Why don't you learn from humans?"
But that's as far as it goes.
Yan Xia cannot turn humans into the nobility of the Civilization Federation, an elite "Celestial Race" above others. That would be unrealistic and inevitably lead to conflicts and even civil war within the Federation.
Therefore, despite all humans being his descendants, Yan Xia only slightly favors them.
After all, if the Civilization Federation collapses, what use is a high status for humans?
However, the human boom is not Yan Xia's primary concern.
His real interest lies in technological progress.
After so many years, Ella has not invented any revolutionary technology or discovered revolutionary energy sources. It's as if they, as a Level 2 civilization, have completed the beginner's tasks in the universe game and must now explore on their own.
Ella seems to have become depressed because she cannot receive Yan Xia's praise and recognition, and she even doubts whether she has reached her limits.
Fortunately, Yan Xia's proposed Imagination Resource Theory finds practical application within the Civilization Federation when the life form population exceeds 14 billion.
A scholar from the Lelerala race, while researching the gravitational effects of leptons, discovers the most mysterious aspect of the universe—dark energy, which was previously only observable on a macroscopic scale and calculable in mathematics.
