What is the oldest profession? Lu Ping'an couldn't say for sure.
But according to his understanding, the "gathering" profession was definitely one of them, whether it was gathering fruits and wild herbs, or collecting animal meat and fur as materials, these were essential for ancient people's survival.
"After all, even in the first edition of the Age of Empire, in primitive societies, you could still order a few people to gather fruits, catch fish, and hunt..."
In Lu Ping'an's philosophy, "desire" was never purely a bad thing, especially the "desire to survive."
Without the desire to survive, primitive people would not need to gather food, make tools/weapons, or find adequate shelter for themselves.
And due to innate differences in abilities, women excelled in gathering, while men mostly hunted and performed physical labor, which further led to the division of labor.
