Chapter 2469: Middle Two Middle Two Soul
After the long battle, only the Red Demon Clan was injured, and no one was sacrificed. This was a blessing in disguise. Everyone supported each other, looked at the ruined village, and sighed. The accumulation of a hundred years was burned down. They would have to live a poor life from now on.
The economy of the Red Demon Village also had primitive accumulation, which is why the Red Demon Village has been comfortable for a hundred years. It's just that the economy has been declining. After all, the internal demand is so large, so they want to develop tourist attractions to attract tourists to revitalize the economy. But they didn't expect that the economic revitalization was successful, and a fire sent everyone back to the poverty of a hundred years ago.
At the beginning, the people of the Red Demon Village worked as thugs for the Magic Empire to earn wealth for future generations to squander for a hundred years. Although the wealth in modern times is not enough, at least they don't have to worry about food and clothing, but now they have nothing. I'm afraid they have to work hard for others to accumulate primitive wealth.
In fact, the closure of the Red Devil Village is entirely due to their rich economy, but the economy cannot be created out of nothing, and the village is too small to promote internal circulation. Even if there are shoe stores, clothing stores, grocery stores and other stores in the village, the population is so small, and more stores cannot make money. The shoes, clothes and groceries consumed by so many villagers are limited.
So before Duran and his friends came to the village, the village's economy had already been in trouble, but at that time everyone at least had some spare money and could do some open source projects, but now they are all destitute, nothing is left, everything is burned down, even the shops and goods are gone.
No one knows what to do, and they are afraid that even eating will become a problem in the future.
Fortunately, the magic school did not suffer any losses, and there is no such thing as not having enough food in the magic school. As long as the copy spell is used, enough food can be copied. However, the villagers are collectively second-year students, and they will not accept the situation of eating charity food. How can they be second-year students when eating relief meals? How can they say those second-year lines with confidence and make people look at them differently?
"It seems that your family's experience of poverty can be passed on to them." Duran said happily.
"Are you happy when others suffer?" Sato Kazuma thought Duran was too mean. With this expression, isn't he afraid of being beaten by the Red Demons who lost their homes?
"No one died? What's a little financial loss? The Red Demons are not born with food and clothing. After their ancestors were transformed, they have been acting as thugs for the Magic Empire. After hard work, their descendants have been stable for a hundred years. But as the old saying goes, wealth cannot last for more than three generations. Now they are just back to the level of their ancestors. Isn't it a good thing?"
"I have lost all my belongings. What's good about it. I really don't understand you." Kazuma didn't understand Duran's thoughts.
Duran knew that this was actually a matter of breaking down and then building up. If the Red Demons can learn from the lesson, they will avoid the village from falling into an internal cycle when building the village in the future. They must learn to be open and inclusive instead of being self-contained.
"In my opinion, if the Demon King's army cadres hadn't come to attack, the Crimson Demon Village would have been like a frog in boiling water, and it would have been even worse than it is now, and it might even have become history. Now that the village is destroyed, it's the right time for them to make changes. This is what they call "destruction followed by reconstruction."
Is there such a saying? Kazuma couldn't see how it was destroyed and then reconstructed.
"So you should study hard when you are in school. If you don't study hard these days, what can you wear?" Duran said that time travel will become more and more inward-looking in the future, and the knowledge required by time travelers will become higher and higher. Time travel without knowledge will be laughed at: "Play less games, read more books, and you will know that the problems of Red Devil Village are very serious. Think about it, are there many tourist cities in your hometown? Why do they want to develop tourism? Do they all have common points such as weak domestic demand, sluggish employment, and a single economy? If life is really good, who would be willing to humble themselves to take care of guests? Especially the Red Devil clan has strong magic power, and they usually look down on outsiders. Why do you think of engaging in tourism? It's because their economy has problems."
It makes sense. Thinking about it this way, there is indeed a problem. He Zhen thought of the tourist cities he had visited before he traveled through time. Basically, there were many people and few people. Even if there were many people, they were all elderly. If these attractions were not open to foreigners, they were basically deserted. Those open to foreigners were very lively but the experience was not good.
Although the scenic spots are interesting to tourists, Kazuma has never thought about the mentality of the locals living in the scenic spots to develop the tourism industry. I am afraid that it is because life is not easy and there is not enough production in the local area that they choose to do so.
The people in the Red Demon Village have this problem. Their magic is very strong, but magic cannot be used as a meal. They don't work for others, so where does the income come from?
The internal circulation in the village cannot solve it at all. Among the young people, Huihui has begun to venture out, which means that the Red Demon Village has begun to lose young people. If the tourism industry is not developed smoothly, then young people will definitely leave the Red Demon Village, and the village may be abandoned in a few decades.
"Anyway, now that the village is gone, they can just re-plan the future of their people. It is not a good idea to engage in tourism. Think about it. How many ordinary people are willing to travel far away now? Secondly, is there a hot spring project like the hot spring city that can relieve fatigue? What is there to see in these mountains and waters?" "So they need to find a new way out now. I suggest that they should go out to work, or build an open and inclusive magic city, which can imitate the magic empire to develop technology based on magic."
Everyone fell into silence after hearing this. It must be said that Duran's analytical skills were indeed very strong, and he directly pointed out the disease of the Red Devils.
"Perhaps this is really an opportunity. We are the Red Devil clan." The village chief cheered up, and the soul of the middle class burned again: "This gentleman is right. We, the Red Devil clan, will not be defeated. We have to rebuild If our village wants to recreate a magical civilization, we can no longer be satisfied with our shoe stores, clothing stores, and grocery stores. We should have higher aspirations. In the past, we were afraid of losing our wealth, so we hesitated and even tried to pass. The tourism industry continues to live in confusion, but now that the village has been burned down and our burden is gone, it is time for the whole world to remember our Red Devil clan again. "We are the strongest Red Devil clan in the world, and I am the Red Devil." You are the clan leader, do you still remember who you are?"
Come back, everyone is back, the souls of the Red Devil clan are back, the two souls of the two are all the masters.
Kazuma looked at these villagers who were poor but still middle-class, and knew that the soul of the red devil was burning again, and it was burning more vigorously than before. He couldn't help but look at Dulan and thought, am I really uneducated? Dulan can cheer everyone up by just opening his mouth, but he can only worry if he goes alone. Is this a cultural gap?
Yes, this is the power of knowledge. This is also the reason why Duran is so full, not only his superpowers, but also his insight into the world.
