Azir looked at the data given by Rhodes with a look of disbelief.

Don't look at Azir's seven disobedience and eight resentment, but when it comes to governing the country, he actually really has a hand - when Azir was in power, Shurima's chaos was greatly alleviated, and he dealt with a lot of Shurima's secession and corruption problems, giving new life to the originally rotten Shurima Empire.

Azir was able to become an ascendant on the one hand because of his tough demands, and on the other hand, it was also related to his solid political achievements, and in that classical era, he could indeed be called a generation of emperors (aside from the last pit Shurima).

As a result, Azir is well aware of the implications of some of the data – he is not the kind of emperor who knows nothing, but he knows very well what it means for a country that eats meat as a staple food to consume meat per capita every year.

That's a real standard of living, the kind that doesn't contain a little moisture!

Why is Ionia and Demacia a region where Valorans are blessed?

Because these two regions are fertile and producing, the people living in Ionia and Demacia have an ample material base!

The annual consumption of more than 1,200 pounds of meat products belongs to the kind of situation where everyone can have enough food and clothing, but malnutrition will occur below the average, which is a commendable achievement in Azir's opinion.

However, the results that Rod came up with were ...... That means that the people of the Twin Cities are not only able to eat enough, but also have a lot of non-practical consumption - just eating, even a transcendent in the physical profession can't eat more than 6,000 pounds of food a year.

"I'm afraid you've been deceived by the statisticians." In addition to being stunned, Azir Bendu wanted to deny Rod's statement, "More than 6,000 Shurima catties is not the amount that one person can eat, even if he changes his leather clothes every year and sells a few bone decorations, one person can't use so many ......."

Seeing that Rhodes frowned, Azir seemed to convince himself, and quickly found many other "corroborations".

"Moreover, meat animals don't grow so fast, and I know that although the traffic environment is good, there is no area for grazing, and unless there are only a few hundred or thousands of people living there, this amount of meat consumption cannot be reached......," Azir concluded, with an affirmative face, "The data you get is either the result of someone with a will, or you simply read the wrong digits-"

"You see, you don't want to believe the facts at all." Just as Azir controlled the yellow sand before, Rhodes also controlled the power of the arcane, and a different picture unfolded in front of Azir, "You don't know that Zu'an developed Hex's only pasture in the abandoned mine, where it only takes less than ten days for broilers to be slaughtered from breaking their shells to being slaughtered, and the growth cycle of large meat animals is less than a year. ”

"You think that consumption is simply to eat well, but in the Twin Cities, being full is probably something that only beggars worry about, and here, people want to eat well."

"The enhancement of physical conditions and the need for education are expanding the material needs of the twin cities, especially the popularization of the third generation of Hextech technology, which has increased the consumption enthusiasm of the whole city, and you can't imagine how much people have to pursue when they are full."

"Now, let me teach you a new word – have you ever heard of productivity?"

……………………

Under the situation of Rhodes's reasoning, Azir was a little dazed - he couldn't imagine that Zuantar, who was once remote from Shurima, was now even more prosperous than Shurima City; The life of the people of Zuan is far beyond the golden age of Shurima!

"You see, that's why you lost." Looking at Azir with a bewildered face, Rhodes laughed, "You are just an emperor of the classical era, you have never thought about a deeper level of content, you have taken productivity as a measure, but you have no idea what it will bring to the whole society when this element changes." ”

"What is productivity?" Azir thought for a moment, but still opened his mouth, "What exactly is that productivity you are talking about?" ”

"You can think of it as referring to the ability to create value." Rod raised an eyebrow, "It's a big word, but I think you should be able to understand what it means." ”

Ability to create value......

Azir chewed on the meaning of the word, and vaguely came to some subtle realizations.

"Grazing, farming, these are all production – and the fruits of war defense, which can also be considered production, if you strip that capacity out, it is productivity."

"A skilled herder can take care of the livestock, raise them stronger, take care of them when they are sick, so he raises much better animals than those rookies, which means that the production capacity of skilled herders is stronger."

"Skilled herders can contribute more productivity than rookie herders."

"And if tools, machines, and spells were used to make it possible for anyone to share more productivity than skilled herders, the world would be different."

"This is the development of the productive forces, and it is also the greatest change of the times, and it is also the reason why I have been recognized by the Law of Ascension and considered to be the person who can lead the revival of Shurima."

Azir was a little abrupt – when he was in power, he also encouraged animal husbandry, and he would encourage the old herders to spread their experience through various rewards.

At that time, he could only vaguely "feel that the old herdsmen were more capable".

And now, when Rhodes put forward this abstract concept, a lot of what he already knew was suddenly understood...... Azir actually believed the data given by Rod at this moment.

If...... He really has a way to increase this "productivity" to the extent he says it is.

"It seems that you are a little arrogant, but you are still smart." Through the change of Azir's expression, Rhodes probably felt his cognition, "Look, you also realize that this very important condition is not as immutable as you have realized before, and if you want to revive Shurima, the evolution of productivity is far stronger than all your current plans." ”

“……”

Seeing that Azir was silent, Rhodes smiled and added fuel to the fire.

"Of course, you can also say that the twin cities are special and have eaten the dividends of geographical location, so I have also established a base in Nanshurima, and you can come here to see what kind of changes will occur when productivity is upgraded."
