Chapter 293: Global Village
Lu Bu shook his head with a smile: "Productivity, or productivity." Only by continuously improving productivity can we create more value. As long as the world is not united, I will not stop the war. And for war, countless supplies are needed. So I have an idea, how do you evaluate it! β
The ministers said: "Please show the emperor!" β
Lu Budao: "I have decided to liberalize technology and improve the technological level of each colony. In this way, the productivity will be improved, and China will naturally be able to obtain more materials. β
How can the hundred officials not be surprised, and they can't help whispering.
After a moment, Chen Gong said: "Your Majesty, now all colonies are still in the stage of military control, and many people have not even learned the language and script of our Han people. These alien races have not fully returned to their hearts, and if the national strength increases, I am afraid that these people will take the opportunity to rebel again and want to find independence. β
Lu Bu nodded and said, "This is indeed a hidden danger that will be faced at any time, but I believe that I and the Zhongqing family can prevent it." My Han once had a glorious territory, and the reason why I couldn't control it was because the technology was too backward. Transportation and communications were too backward, so the Han could only manage the surrounding countries by paying tribute. β
"Although this law allows for the acquisition of goods from other countries, these countries are in fact independent countries. Once my big man falls behind, they will be completely out of the control of the big man. But now it is different, and now China sends officials to govern and manage the colonies in the form of taxes. As long as our country's science and technology and military are always at the strongest, these alien races have no need to jump at all! β
There was another heated whispering discussion to see which method was better.
As long as the technology and military are the strongest, and then the population is the largest, this is definitely able to dominate the world.
The whole world is under the control of the Han people, how not to excite everyone.
But the point is that if you want the Han population to skyrocket, it will take time, and it will also require a lot of food to feed.
Then, let go of technology now, in case the alien races of the colonial powers control higher technology and have the power to resist, this is also a big trouble.
In the end, Chen Gong said: "Your Majesty, this method is indeed feasible, but it has to be slowly figured out." First, let go of some science and technology to improve productivity, especially agricultural productivity, to ensure materials. Only the territory completely controlled by our Han people may be on par with Huaguo Technology. β
Lu Bu nodded: "Yes, this matter is negotiated by the ministries, and according to the actual situation of each colony, the degree of liberalization of science and technology will be decided." Alternatively, differentiation strategies can be employed. Colonies that are not far apart can grant different technologies. In this way, all localities can not only complement each other in close proximity, but also avoid the possibility of rebellion and rebellion. β
The ministers bowed their heads one after another, and they all felt that they could be completely controlled.
And the means of control is Huaguo's constantly improving technology.
At the same time, when the new year comes, Lu Bu must also constantly check the reports of last year's various places, as well as the development plan for the new year.
It is precisely because of the experience of later generations that Lu Bu's technology can develop by leaps and bounds.
It means that it can bypass some low-level technology and directly develop more advanced high-tech.
It is undeniable that electricity is the most important source of energy.
And now, Huaguo still only has electricity in the main cities of the major cities.
In many counties, there is almost no electricity.
There is no electricity in the cities, let alone in the towns and villages.
In reality, however, most of China's population lives in rural areas.
Although LΓΌ Bu's goal was for the colonial powers to farm to support the Han Chinese, this goal was not achieved immediately.
It is already very awesome to be able to use half of the population for the military industry.
So what Lu Bu thought about next was to popularize electric energy.
Thermal power generation, environmental pollution.
Hydroelectric power generation also requires the construction of large reservoirs. Not only will it flood the ground, but it may also cause changes in the ecological environment.
Nuclear power generation is not at all possible at present, and even if it does, it will also have potential safety risks.
Although wind power is safe and clean, it is too regional and face-seeking.
Solar energy is the main research direction of new energy in the 21st century.
Therefore, Lu Bu also set his goal here.
Quite simply, solar power is too simple compared to nuclear power.
It's just a photoelectric conversion principle, and even the material Lu Bu understands is silicon.
In fact, the real restriction on solar power generation is the power storage technology.
That is, electrification.
The conversion of electrical energy into chemical energy storage, and then from chemical energy to electrical energy, will be restricted by the material.
If there is absolutely awesome power storage technology, technology has long been unknown to what extent.
Well, maybe you can find more awesome materials in outer space.
Lu Bu didn't think too much about it, he just wanted to achieve the level of research and development in the future first.
With household solar energy as the main body, it will be integrated into the power grid to achieve power complementarity.
In this way, Lu Bu does not need to build too many power plants.
This is quite effective for protecting the environment.
Because Lu Bu has begun to feel the environmental harm brought about by the great industrial development.
The air I breathe now is not as clean as it was ten years ago.
This kind of thing can only be deeply understood by Lu Bu. So, he's going to start controlling it now.
In the early days, solar energy was the conversion of solar thermal power, that is, light energy to heat energy, and then steam power generation to electric energy.
The more this translates, the less efficient it becomes.
The real development of solar energy is the direct conversion of photoelectric energy.
There is no doubt that Lu Bu just understands.
What he really lacks now is only refining crystalline silicon and various electrochemical equipment.
Of course, integrated circuits and intelligent programming must also keep up.
Lu Bu's goal is to make every household have access to electricity first.
It is then pulled and integrated into the large power grid to build a more modern, economical and environmentally friendly energy system.
Only when the whole world is connected to electricity can he truly control the world.
Yes, the more technology you have, the more control you have.
The more backward you are, the weaker your control is.
The tributary style of the Chinese dynasties is no longer in line with Lu Bu's interests.
What Lu Bu wants is to turn the world into a global village, controlled by him alone.
It is precisely because of Ren Dao that there is a long way to go, so Lu Bu has to be a little anxious.
With the release of Lu Bu Technology, Sun Quanke, who was in Oceania, died happily.
What is Lu Bu going to do, this is to directly send an engineering team to build a thermal power plant.
Then there were all kinds of factories for papermaking, printing, and so on.
In other words, it won't be long before Sun Quan himself will be able to print banknotes.
Of course, being able to print doesn't mean you can.
Dare to print money, once it is known by Lu Bu, it is guaranteed that the army will come in minutes.
Yes, to let go of technology, you can only let it go.
This is the only way to quickly increase productivity.
Some things are profitable to be transported over long distances, and some things are more than worth the losses.
You think that transportation doesn't cost money, but now the cost of transportation is quite high.
Therefore, we can only set up factories on the spot and develop them locally.
If you don't provide technology, what should you do in the factory.
If productivity does not increase, even if you Han people can oppress foreign slaves to work.
There's not much value that can be created.
Compared with the grinding by hand and the grinding with diesel engine and electric motor, it is clear which is more efficient.
At the same time, the stalemate between Huashu and Shu has finally changed.
The wolf-tooth special forces said: "General Guan, General Zhang, we can only find out the detention locations of Guan Ping and Zhang Shao. Guan Xing, Zhang Bao and other princes did not know anything about the news. It will not be a problem for us to rescue Guan Ping and Zhang Shao, but the safety of the other sons cannot be guaranteed. β
