"Brother Fu, we have learned all the technologies in this alien base. We have actually mastered most of the technologies, that is, the technology of plasma engines has gained something, followed by their computer technology. Because the language of Luo'en civilization is similar to that of our Chinese language, programming is very inspiring to our Chinese programming."

At this time, it had been almost two months since the discovery of Ceres' alien civilization base. During this period, scientists on the Ocean have analyzed the entire base inside and out, and have carefully studied everything.

"It seems that I have almost returned to Earth, and there is not much energy left on the spacecraft."

After hearing Chen Bin's words, Li Fu nodded. In fact, for Li Fu, there is no technology worth learning in this alien base. There are countless advanced technologies in the seeds of civilization that have not been learned yet. Staying here is just pretending to show it outside. He has long wanted to go back to Earth.

"Haha, Li Fu, this time it was really not in vain. I got a huge harvest."

At this time, Li Fu's teachers Liu Yi and Liu Shiying floated over, their voices very loudly.

This time he followed the Ocean Spaceship to investigate. Not only did he discover extraterrestrial life on Mars, but also had aliens and many alien plants for him to study on Ceres. It can be said that he has been busy all the time and has gained a lot.

"The life on Lorne is similar to the life on our earth. They are both carbon-based life and double-helix genes. The Lorne people also evolved slowly from living things. Their ancestors were actually similar to those on our earthly people. They evolved from an animal similar to apes on Lorne."

"It's no wonder that their appearance actually has many similarities with our Earthlings. They have flat noses, pointed ears, and blue skin. Their ancestors should have lived in very dense primeval forests."

Liu Yi happily talked about his research results. Scarter Yong's body was made into a specimen, and some plants on the Lorne star he brought to him were carefully protected by scientists. These are plants from 8.6 light years away and are very precious.

"You are laughing. I am full of worry now. The technological level of the Luo'en civilization 50 years ago has almost reached our current level. 50 years have passed, and I don't know how far it has developed. If we invade our solar system in the future, I don't know if we can live in a low-end position."

Liu Shiying couldn't laugh at all. He carefully studied all the technologies in this alien base. After uniting with scientists on Earth, he believed that the technology of the earth and the scientific and technological level of the Luo An civilization were 50 years apart, so he was very worried now.

"We will stop the water and soil from covering the water. We are worried that it will not solve the problem. We should work harder to study technology."

"Old Liu, teacher, do you think we can almost return to Earth?"

Li Fu smiled helplessly, and then discussed with Liu Shiying and Liu Yi about returning to Earth.

...

On the other hand, China on Earth, due to the decisions made at the Supreme Conference, the Chinese government began to expose information, encourage childbirth, improve population quality, and vigorously develop technology. These three policies that will become the basic policies to dominate the stars in the future have begun to be announced through news media, virtual world and other channels.

"Terrible children and blessings!"

"Four generations live together, five generations live together, and the joy of family."

"The disadvantages and dangers of only children, etc."

Various publicity contents began to appear in the Chinese people's vision. In the past, they had fewer and better children, and only one child was better. Now, the other hand, and the official began to encourage childbirth.

Of course, the real policy has not yet been released. Now we are just trying to see the reactions of the domestic people. This is also what the official Chinese government has always done, and nothing will be implemented immediately. After all, this is a matter that concerns the great cause of the Chinese nation, not a joke.

However, beyond everyone's expectations, the Chinese people would have actively responded to the call of the country, but the situation was that they had few reactions and the people's desire to give birth was very low. In the related discussion topics in the virtual world, basically people said that they would not give birth to too many children, at most two, and many people even chose to give birth to only one.

"In the past, we forced our family planning, but now we are starting to encourage more rabbits. Did we find that there are too few rabbits and not enough to eat, so we are kind and start to give birth. I won't be fooled. At most, only one is given to death, and I am not even going to have a baby."

"That is, it's better to have only one child, the country will support the elderly, and the country will help the elderly, and then the country will not rely on the country to support the elderly. It's better to postpone retirement and support yourself. Who would believe it? It's better to die than to have another child."

"Four generations live together? Five generations live together? I really think too much. Living in China, it's okay to live until 60. I got married at the age of 30 and had a son at the age of 31. It would be nice to see my grandson when I die."

Among various forums, topics like this are very popular and have received support from many people. Rabbits basically have no reaction to the things that are now advocated and encouraged, and they all said that they can't afford to give birth, cannot afford to raise, and their desire to give birth is very low.

This is just like the development of a second child. The number of newborns in the country did not increase explosively as experts expected. Instead, the number of newborns decreased by more than 200,000 a year. The long-term family planning publicity has greatly changed the concept of fertility among the Chinese people.

Now I want to change everyone's thoughts all of a sudden. The difficulty is similar to when I was promoting family planning. It is very difficult and takes time. Of course, what is more important is that although everyone's living standards are much higher than before, the pressure of life is still very high, just don't have to worry about food and clothing. Then the house, car, education, and medical care are still heavy mountains.

In early January 2025, the Ocean Spaceship finally returned to Earth after more than two years of scientific investigation. When Li Fu stepped onto the earth's land, he couldn't help but breathe a few breaths of air. However, as soon as Li Fu returned to Earth, he was immediately called to the imperial capital by Tang Yunshan.

In the center of the Chinese imperial capital, in a quiet courtyard, Tang Yunshan was very rare to have time to have fun. While drinking tea with Li Fu, chatting and talking about some of his views on the future.

"I don't know what young people are thinking now. They don't want to have children. Last year, the number of newborns in our country was reduced by hundreds of thousands. The proportion of elderly people over 60 years old in our country has reached nearly one-third, which is really worrying."

In the past, Tang Yunshan did not attach much importance to the population, but since he proposed to encourage childbirth, he attached great importance to this area and carefully studied it, he discovered a problem that the population of China is about to have huge problems.

The number of newborns is decreasing every year, and the aging is getting worse and worse, and the speed is very fast, but the corresponding equipment guarantee, medical care, etc. cannot keep up with it at all.

So at this time, Tang Yunshan seemed worried and very helpless about the situation in front of him. Even though he had already grasped the greatest power in this country, he still could not change the situation in front of him.

"Old Tang, do you really don't know why young people are unwilling to live?"

After hearing this, Li Fu nodded slightly. Li Fu knew from the seeds of civilization that in the interstellar universe era, every civilization attaches great importance to population growth, because only more people can occupy more resources and planets. If the population continues to decrease, what can we use to fight with other civilizations?

"Please give me advice."

Tang Yunshan was sitting up and asked for advice very seriously.

"I think there are two reasons why young people are unwilling to have children. On the one hand, it is because of long-term family planning publicity, so everyone thinks that having only one is good. Another very important reason is that everyone is under a lot of pressure in life now, and the cost of raising a child is too high, so they are unwilling to have children. Even if they are allowed to have children, they will not give birth."

Li Fu thought about it and said that the low fertility rate is a problem that almost every developed country will encounter. Of course, China's fertility rate is lower than that of the foot-basin chicken and the Nanbangzi, which is even lower than that of European and American countries. It has reached a very dangerous brink. It is very likely that the population collapse will happen.

"I can understand the first reason. Second, the pressure of life is great. I think everyone's living standards are much better than before. Even in rural areas, everyone has a house and a car. Is the pressure of life really great?"

Tang Yunshan thought about it and said in confusion.

"Of course the pressure of life is very high. Although our country's economic development has been very good in recent years, the big problems in our country have not been solved. If the problems of medical care, elderly care, education, and houses cannot be fundamentally solved, the other is that social fairness, justice and openness have not been improved at all. The dragon gives birth to dragons, the phoenix gives birth to phoenixes, and the social class is gradually solidifying. These problems are the fundamental problems that need to be solved now. Only by solving these problems, I think everyone's desire to give birth will gradually increase."

Li Fu pondered for a while and kept sorting out his language in his mind. Tang Yunshan was born into a big family and lived a superior life since childhood. Of course, he would not understand some of the difficulties faced by ordinary people. He only knew that the living standards of ordinary people are much higher than before, but he did not know the real problems faced by the people.
