High Above Chapter 880

  Chapter 880 Thirst for a defeat (12)

  —The future rolls around without asking people's opinions.

  Hearing these words, Adalbert felt a tremor from the bottom of his heart.

  He finally understood what Ian was thinking.

   Not like Inaiga II, not like Thorin...

   Unlike all the self-assured, pompous kings on Terra...

  Ian never expects a 'right', nor does he want to create an 'eternal'.

  He does not pursue the eternal lineage, nor does he pursue the long-term continuation and strength of the bloodline.

  What he wants is not a name that will last forever, nor a system that can run stably for hundreds of thousands of years.

  He believes that the path he is taking is "right now", but not "right in the future".

  He believes that he will "succeed now" and "will be eliminated" in the future.

  Whether it's AI, Arcane Ways, Agricultural Reform, Chongling Sect...all of these are just Ian's tools, the carving knife used to transform the world.

   But that was not Ian's dream and goal.

  Ian's goal…

   "Only high above."

   He said tremblingly, "You only want that, don't you? Other than that, everything will come later."

"Yes."

Ian's gaze was gentle but firm, without the slightest hesitation: "When human beings can travel to distant places safely, my system will be eliminated—but before that, I will create a system where everyone can live and work in peace and contentment without worrying about the future." A world of food and clothing."

   "So, Adalbert, would you like to go to failure with me?" He issued an invitation.

   "How can I say no?"

   Closing his eyes, the researcher smiled wryly.

  But soon, he opened his eyes, and his wry smile turned into a real smile: "So far, I haven't made even one mistake in my research. Even the dead king, although the result is not satisfactory, it is considered a success."

  Adbert's eyes lit up, like a flame-like crimson light, and the usually gentle Dead King researcher showed a firm expression: "It's not just you, Ian."

  He said seriously: "I am also eager for a defeat."

  Ian smiled.

  The Heart of Terra hangs quietly on top of the blood-red sky.

  The silver sun shines on it all.

  The communication and creation in the chip space is destined to be unknown to outsiders.

  The leadership team led by Xiahui was immediately exposed to the taste of change.

   In the first month after Ian returned.

   A group of dwarven skilled workers headed by Roland have received a series of promotions and rewards one after another.

  Because they have explored the perfect alchemy park construction site in the gorge between Xiahui Territory and Midra Autonomous Region, and have started construction.

  As for Xiahui collar, many staff members of the city hall are required to attend the study classes offered by the cadre academy three times a week.

  The learning content involves some quite professional knowledge of inscriptions, concepts related to terminal operating systems and psionic networks.

  These courses sound difficult, but they are actually like construction workers. Even if you really don't understand anything, you can always learn some safety regulations and operating methods if you study hard.

   Those who are well-informed know that this territory is about to install a crystal terminal system from Canaan Moore, especially those who have channels in the imperial capital. They are quite aware that Isengard of the Ellen family has been quite active recently.

  As the Prophet's friend and spokesperson in the imperial capital, he spared no effort to apply for many preferential policies for Ian, and established Xiahui's chamber of commerce channel.

But the more intelligent people discovered one important point: the Lord Bai Zhimin did not seem to intend to place his relatives in the local government team. Only those who have received the education of the cadre school can hold the management positions in the Xiahui leader and the mountain people. serve.

  Moreover, any cadre, including Qingchao, who is purely armed, must also go to school, read many books, and receive higher education.

  Although it has not been clearly stated yet, it seems that if you want to get a position in Xiahui, you do not rely on blood, nor rely solely on force, but need...knowledge.

  Needs education.

  The wind of education is blowing to the whole Xiahui collar.

  Although it is only the simplest basic mathematics and characters, the Xiahui collar officials are indeed committed to eliminating illiteracy in the territory.

   No matter who it is, even the Orion Herbal Gatherers who stay in the mountains all day long, they must receive teaching, and the city hall will issue a "study subsidy" to every student whose full attendance rate meets the standard.

  Although only half of these subsidies are money, the other half is also quite practical materials such as food, milk, fruit and oil.

  For the people of Nanling, who have just suffered a food disaster for more than a year, this thing is much more beneficial than sending money directly.

time flies.

   Soon to Terra 774, December.

   Four peaceful months passed, and nothing major happened.

  The second batch of large-scale planting of Xiahuiling's agricultural building version Xiahui Grass has a good harvest. Compared with the first batch of experimental nature, the output has grown significantly, and the total output value has even reached an exaggerated 670,000 talers.

   This is not counting that after the alchemy workshop is processed into a spiritual nourishing extract, the price will usher in another increase.

  You must know that in the past Laian Territory era, the net profit of the entire territory was about 200,000 talers per year after deducting the tax and the share of the cost price provided to Nauman City and the imperial capital.

   Then remove the territory itself to maintain public facilities, renovate roads and repair the city's appearance, give farmers planting subsidies, maintain alchemy workshops and research funds and other needs.

  In the era of the Lean Land, the wealth at the disposal of the lord was about 70,000 to 90,000 talers per year.

   That's how rich he is, so Baron Ryan can carry out his resurrection experiment.

   Otherwise, a professional laboratory-level cultivation chamber would cost two to three thousand talers. There are more than forty in his laboratory, and all kinds of alchemy and psionic equipment are even more expensive, which makes people gasp.

  However, after Ian reformed the agricultural production method, the output rate of the agricultural building, which can use the natural field of Xiahui Territory more efficiently, has directly tripled.

   According to the current research performance, the Xiahui grass, which was originally produced more than once a year, or even more than two years, has reached a stable harvest speed of eight months under professional training.

   What does this mean?

   That's another two-to-three-fold boost! Putting it all together, it is at least a six-fold increase!

  Xiahuiling's annual net profit reached one million talers, a terrifying number for a single territory.

Of course, Xiahui grass is the main pillar industry of Xiahui collar today. It can be said that the current Xiahui collar, apart from Xiahui grass, only makes money from the contract of coating chemicals... and the million dollars, there are more than half of it. Used in territory construction.

Libraries, schools, bathhouses, theaters, terminal laying, mountain development, mining exploration... too many places cost money, among other things, Ian saw it on the way of Xingxing Road, which leads directly from Xiahui Ling The 'asphalt road' between Nauman City and Indigo Mountain cost a lot.

  Even if Ian plagiarizes his own city plan, it can save a lot of time for actual construction, but construction also requires money and people.

   Not to mention the manufacturing and maintenance of the 'armor', and the consumption of the element crystallization production line... These are bottomless pits, even Ian frowned at a glance.

  —It is true to say that the military industry has made huge profits, but the money spent on military industry research and development is also astronomical!

  But it has to be done, because Ian has a lot of weapons that he doesn't want to share with the empire, which will increase the obstacles for him to conquer all of Terra in the future.

  He must independently establish Nanling's military industry department.

Fortunately, Ian signed another weapon contract with the Flint Group. The coating agent can not only be used on the armor, but can also be used on the engine for reinforcement and short-term overclocking. This is a brand new method of utilization This gave the alchemists on the side of the empire a lot of inspiration, which got another round of funding.

  The clustering of the magnetic storm system also gave the infantry units of the empire the means to deal with some armored units-and the related electromagnetic barriers can indeed create an information black hole in some areas to facilitate the actions of the empire's squad.

  In addition, the Canaan Moore side also designated Xiahui Ling and Harrison Port as the "trade window" of Nanling. In the long run, this is also an extremely lucrative funding channel.

  It's a pity that the far water can't decompose the near fire. The profits from the second batch of Xiahui grass are basically spent on military construction, and Ian didn't keep any for himself.

   Of course, he didn't lose at all.

  Now Ian needs materials that are extremely difficult to buy at the fourth energy level, and the development of the territory and the popularization of artificial soul technology have continuously improved the basic quality of Xiahui's personnel.

  But what is really important is that the mountain people have also started to build agricultural buildings and began to pursue the task of "100% food self-sufficiency".

This is a five-year plan. The mountain people are developing northwards towards the Black Marsh area. There is a fertile **** plain below the mountain, which is most suitable for planting crops, and the rivers and lakes along the way are also suitable for building agricultural buildings. Good grain storage.

  When everyone knows that they will not starve to death, people's pursuit will increase a lot in an instant.

  People who don't have enough to eat, most of them think about how to get enough to eat every day.

   Solved the problem of the mountain people's long-standing difficulty in eating. With the power of this matter, Ian held a mountain chief priest meeting in the Midra Autonomous Region.

After the meeting, the mountain people confirmed the belief system with Ian as the main core, especially after Ian showed his heart light body, the guiding star that illuminates the entire venue, he easily convinced all the mountain chiefs present .

  —Master, I'm your master, if you had said that you were in the third energy level, we wouldn't dare to think carefully.

   Regarding this, Ian's impression is that 'the weapon of criticism is really not as good as the criticism of weapons'.

  Tara people are really cheap in this regard. If they don't give them a little deterrence, they will be careful no matter what.

If it hadn't been for Ian, who has been repairing the body of the dark gold giant dragon with the Dragon King in Dragon Island recently, and was still reading the information database of Dragon Island, he would definitely think of a way to get a projection of the dark gold giant dragon. Properly use the identity of the dragon **** to declare who is orthodox!

  In addition, Ian also reflected on himself—he made the mountain people full, so this group of people used to have nothing to do except find something to eat, and now they are full, don't they just think wildly?

  In the final analysis, the quality of the mountain people is indeed not good. They have always been aggressive. When there is an enemy, this kind of character is courage, and if there is no enemy and they are very idle...they will fight among themselves.

  So Ian wants to build a school in the major autonomous regions of the mountain people in the past, and now in the "Jurisdiction of the Earl of Silver Peak".

  The teacher of the school was the original tribal priest.

  This caused shock and dissatisfaction among the mountain people—who would teach their knowledge to ordinary tribal people? Compared with the countries of Terra, the system of the mountain people is even more backward.

   But Ian didn't give a damn.

  If you don't want to open it, have resistance, and don't want to teach others knowledge, then you will die.

   "For me, it's just changing to another group of people as priests."

  In this regard, Ian expressed his opinion straightforwardly: "Listen to my order, or go to see Dragon God, you choose."

  Although everyone seems to be devout, no one wants to meet the Dragon God.

  Mountain people are good dragons belong to yes.
