"The New World has officially adjusted the Light Seeds to be legal currency, which can be exchanged with various new forms of currency."

Crab Boss gestured emphatically while explaining: "The people from Jin City were the first among the new human groups to enter this area. By participating in various labors in the New World, they earned their first pot of gold, creating many wealthy individuals. Some quickly realized the value of new currency and invested in various conceptual currencies, earning growth dividends that allowed them to live comfortably."

"The Dream Demons also joined in. Initially, they resisted because the Great Holy Spirit was their sovereign territory. But the New World had become unstoppable, so they wisely decided to keep up. The Weaving Lords purchased a large amount of new currency for reserve in the market."

Zhou Yi nodded in agreement.

Once a big trend takes shape, no one can stop it, either you get on board, or you get left behind.

Based on these favorable developments and premises,

Zhou Yi finally decided to allow everyone from Wasteland Earth to enter the New World. The more people enter, the stronger the appeal to the Concept Life, and the more beneficial it is for further evolution of the New World.

However, the number of Evil Brain Motors is limited, and managing them still requires continuous learning and experience.

Therefore, the opening will initially be limited to certain regions, with the first batch being the Five Regions of the Development Alliance, then gradually expanding outward in phases.

The super-rapid development of the New World, along with currency monetization, also brought new hidden dangers.

Jue Mingzi pointed out, "Mr. Zhou, the sudden wealth and opportunities in the New World might lead some to become overly absorbed, even completely shifting from the material side to the consciousness side."

"This could result in fewer people engaging in foundational labor like agriculture, industry, and services. Although, in the short term, everyone will see an increase in wealth, and the New World will accelerate expansion and development. The wealth gained there can be used for consumption on Earth... But over time, systematic risks could form."

"Eventually, this could lead to industry hollowing, with most people unwilling to engage in traditional labor, instead opting to mine and trade new currency in the New World."

As an old human, Zhou Yi was all too familiar with this.

Because the financial industry can generate money quickly with little human resource requirement, many developed countries and cities have invested the majority of their money in finance. This led to a rapid decline in manufacturing and services, resulting in complete reliance on external imports for various goods.

However, this is also the rule of social development.

People are always drawn to fields where they can make money fast and in abundance.

Zhou Yi said, "It seems you've found a solution?"

"703 and I harnessed a large amount of computing power to conduct world-class simulations. Currently, there are two ways that can alleviate and regulate the situation."

Jue Mingzi proposed the plan: "First, gradually replace production positions with Mechanical Life. Given the current productivity and efficiency of Mechanical Life, this is achievable. As more land is developed, costs can further decrease."

"Second, establish a detailed tax and transfer payment system. Through taxation and revenues from the New World, we can support the real economy on Earth to ensure that manufacturing itself can be persistently profitable, thereby increasing the income of positions in these areas. Here are the specifics..."

After hearing the proposal, Zhou Yi found it feasible.

"Let's do it this way."

The tenth year, summer.

The New World officially opened to everyone.

Slots were completely distributed at random, in batches, and everyone in the areas where slots were released could try their luck with the Evil Brain Motor to see if they were fortunate.

Those who received slots entered the New World, where there was a severe shortage of natural labor, and many jobs were available for selection. If they could quickly accumulate wealth, invest in potential new currency, and hold on, financial freedom was not far away.

Thus, this year, a widely circulated saying emerged.

"A person has three opportunities in life to change their destiny directly. The first is being born to a good family, the second is finding a strong partner, and the third is drawing a number with the Wasteland Development Company."
