"Yes, the area of Mars is very large, 214 million square kilometers (1.5 times larger), but the empire currently has only one Martian city on Mars, covering an area of 310 square kilometers, so our territory on Mars is 3.1 million square kilometers, and 40,000 square kilometers have been planted, totaling 1 million Babel fruit trees. Zhang Xian talked about the situation on Mars for a while, and then stopped talking a little.

"Is there anything you want to say? Li Quan saw that Zhang Xian had something to say, but he was a little hesitant and didn't know what the reason was.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Mars is farther away than the Moon, and there are currently more than 50 countries that have built bases on the Moon, but there are only two countries that have built bases on Mars, the Empire and Huaguo, Sam's Country and Polar Bear have delayed the process because of disputes, but because of distance and technology, Huaguo's base is only less than one square kilometer in area, and Sam's Country and Polar Bear are not much better. ”

"But the future will be different, although the empire has exclusive possession of Venus, we all know that the vast majority of Venus's future area will be oceans, and the land area is actually very limited, so we should continue to expand the advantages on Mars, instead of leaving it alone, we are too polite to other countries. "I didn't expect Zhang Xian to be a hawk too.

"I'll talk about that later, but one thing you're right about is that we need to increase the territory of Mars at the moment, at least enough area to plant Babel Fruit Trees. Li Quan thought for a while and said.

"First of all, according to the three Martian cities we planned before, we will build them as soon as possible, and by then, we will have 20 million square kilometers of territory on Mars, and I need to plant Tongtian fruit trees in this 20 million square kilometers of territory. Li Quan said.

Once this goal is achieved on Mars, the Babel Fruit produced on Mars alone will be able to meet the upgrade conditions.

Zhang Xian continued: "At present, in addition to Huaguo, we also have nearly 1 million trees in Saudi Arabia and Anxi County, and during this period of time, Sam's Country, polar bears, the Middle East, and many countries in Africa have been actively communicating with us, hoping to introduce Tongtian fruit trees. ”

Then it means that at present, the world or the entire solar system has a total of 52 million Babel Fruit Trees, which can produce about 52 million Babel Fruit every three years, and if you don't count the losses, you can produce 5.2 million genetic potions every three years, and it will take about eight years to meet the upgrade conditions.

However, at present, the number of Tongtian fruit trees is growing rapidly, especially after the Mars side is fully planted, I can't imagine that when the population of the New Tang Empire reaches 100 million, I am afraid that everyone will be able to get a genetic medicine.

However, things that are too easy to get are often not cherished, and the channels and difficulty of obtaining them must be controlled, otherwise Li Quan would rather delay the upgrade time.

Zhang Xian didn't know that His Majesty had thought so much, and then said:

"It's just that our conditions are too harsh, because there are only two ways at present, one is to pay a high price, and the other is to exchange territory, both of which are very difficult, except for Sam's country, other countries don't have so much money, and they are reluctant to give up their own land, so the negotiations have been deadlocked. ”

"The empire is not short of that money now, what is lacking is the Babel Fruit, so let's reduce the price of governing the desert by half, but they must sign an agreement, they need to manage these fruit trees for the Empire for free, and return the empire to the full amount of Babel Fruit every three years for thirty years, and then the empire can spend money to buy it, which can be regarded as generating income for them, but it requires decades of long-term investment, which is generally cost-effective for them, and if they are willing to sign a sixty-year return agreement, they can reduce the price to a quarter. ”

"As for the land replacement, we are not reluctant, if we are willing, we also accept, it used to be ten for one, but now it can be reduced to twenty for one, I believe that many African countries should be willing. Li Quan thought about it and directly reduced the price by half.

He doesn't value much land area and money now, because his eyes are always on space, which is the future of the New Tang Empire.

But you can't help them for free, so they don't know how to cherish it, and they will fight against them.

"Your Majesty is merciful, and I believe that they will be grateful to Your Majesty. Zhang Xian said.

"Hehe, I'm not uncommon with their gratitude, what I need is Tongtian Fruit and population. Li Quan said.

Why does Your Majesty need the population of other countries, Zhang Xian was very curious, but he knew each other very well and did not ask.

If the desert is well managed, the area on the water blue star will increase a lot, and it will be able to support more people, and it is foreseeable that there will be a population explosion in the future.

Although these people are not from the New Tang Empire, they can provide Li Quan with prestige points, and now the top three calculations in the mall are still hanging high there.

The brain domain has developed a full set of technologies for pharmaceuticals, worth 20 billion prestige points;

The complete set of second-order all-round gene medicine technology, worth 18 billion prestige points;

Stellar Energy develops a full set of technologies, worth 16 billion prestige points;

The total value is 54 billion prestige points, even if it is a variety of combinations, at least 50 billion prestige points are enough, and at present, the prestige value that Li Quan can get in a year is only about 4.8 billion to 4.9 billion, which will take ten years to be enough.

"Okay, Elder Ge will go back and arrange it first," Li Quan said.

Early the next morning, the New Tang Empire was lively again, and even the entire New Tang Dynasty, the eighty-five subject countries, were also very lively, because the merit points exchange system of the New Tang Empire was updated again.

The price of the gene medicine worth 10,000 merit points was reduced again, and it was reduced by five times, directly dropping to 2,000 merit points.

This was determined by Li Quan after checking the ranking of the merit points of the citizens of the empire, and it was not decided casually.

At present, among the 61.22 million people in the empire, there are about 200,000 people who have accumulated more than 2,000 merit points.

At present, there are less than 50,000 people with 2,000 points left, and it is believed that these 50,000 people will become the first batch of beneficiaries after the empire's big price cut.

The previous 10,000 were only available to the top of society, and this time the next level of businessmen, or a group of people who have made outstanding contributions, will also have a chance.

And this is only a prelude to this big price cut, there will be several more price reductions in the next ten years, until more than half of the people can enjoy the benefits of the empire, and then it will slowly stabilize.

Instead of going down all the time, this is certainly unrealistic, because this in itself is a very rare strategic resource.

In order to ensure that the genetic drugs do not flow out, Li Quan ordered that the state provide them with a place to inject the genetic drugs, and each citizen only has one chance, and the robot is responsible for the injection, so as to ensure that the genetic drugs are not taken abroad.

If it is injected by the people themselves, it will inevitably make some foreign forces have some bad ideas and threaten the safety of the people, and Li Quan will not allow such a precedent to appear.

"Wow, it's okay to reduce the price this time, there should be a lot of people who can redeem it. ”

"I'm still 200 points short of that, it's a pity. ”

"You're okay, it's just two hundred points, just wait, I'm nearly halfway there, I can only wait for another price reduction, but even if the price is not reduced, I will be satisfied in another ten years, and I can afford to wait for more than ten years." ”
