With the passage of time, under the hard work of the imperial government, by 2040, everything in the empire has been normalized, and Chang'an City has become a new national capital, with schools, hospitals, banks, supermarkets, companies, and so on, all of which are operating normally, and can be regarded as having passed the most difficult transition period.

Here in the residential areas, among the villas and gardens, there are children playing freely everywhere, and adults are very relieved, because there is no need to worry about human traffickers, vehicles, etc. here in the empire.

And although the empire has made great changes in all aspects, there is still no change in the area of forced childbirth, in the empire, there is also a law of forced childbirth, because the population of the empire is too small, and now it is only more than 10 million people, this population, not to mention the interstellar universe, even the Yanhuang Star is far from enough, not to mention that the empire also has a more extensive land area of Kyushu Star.

So on the issue of population, although the people of the empire have a lot of complaints about this, especially the women of the empire, but at the insistence of the top of the empire, they still adhere to the forced birth policy, of course, on the side of the empire, the rewards of the forced birth policy are more generous, and the imperial government will raise the child, and the more children you have, the more rewards.

From the third child onwards, the people of the empire can not only get rich material rewards, but also many other rewards, such as the small private anti-gravity spaceship that is now selling very well, because the production is limited now, it is impossible to say that every family has their own spaceship.

So it's generally a lottery, and when the lottery is shaken, then you can buy it, but the empire rewards the people of the empire in order to encourage the people of the empire to work hard to have babies, and the more children there are, the more small anti-gravity spaceships they get first.

For another example, in terms of promotion and salary increase, one's own ability and contribution are naturally the most important indicators to consider, and the other is the number of children in the family, not to mention the promotion, the imperial law has relevant provisions on mandatory salary increases, regardless of whether the company wants to or not, it must raise the salary for families with many children.

Of course, despite the implementation of various policies to encourage childbirth, the population of the empire still does not want to grow overnight, and this person is born to need to be raised, need education, from kindergarten to university, at least it will take more than 20 years to become a real adult.

As the so-called ten years of trees and a hundred years of people, the huge new population is very high pressure on the government, but whether it is Li Fu or Fang Zheng, the top of the empire is very clear that there are talents and everything, maybe the pressure on each one is very great now, but as long as it survives, the huge population will be converted into a strong driving force, making the empire prosperous and strong.

Therefore, there is a government subsidy for imperial citizens to have children, and they basically don't have to pay for this part of their own money, and education is completely free and compulsory until the university stage.

The houses of the citizens of the empire are allocated by the government, except for the emperor, everyone lives in the same house, as long as they register their marriage, they can get their own house, and there is no need to spend generations of blood in order to buy a house like on this side of the earth, and they have to carry a huge mortgage.

Powerful technology has ensured an extremely abundant material supply, and in terms of material life, the common people of the empire really don't have to worry about anything, so it is relatively positive to have children.

Most of them come from poor families and rural families, and the ideas of the parents are still more or less retained, and the number of children in every household is quite large.

Under the giant leaf tree in the back garden of the Imperial Palace, Li Fu was leisurely reading a book, eating delicious fruits from Kyushu Star, and at the same time looking at the little ones who were playing football on the lawn not far away from time to time.

Up to now, from Li Wanzhou, who is 18 years old and has just become an adult, to Li Wanqing, the youngest daughter who was still in swaddling clothes not long after she was born, Li Fu and Wang Yun have given birth to 8 children, and at this time, several little ones who are still seven or eight years old are playing freely on the lawn.

Wang Yun walked over with a little doll in his arms, although he was already the mother of 8 children, but he had insisted on practicing Yuan Li for a long time, Wang Yun still looked the same as when he was in Yanhuang University, but the smell of a mature woman exuded from his body was even more obsessive.

Li Fu and Wang Yun have a very good relationship, which is why Wang Yun, as an intellectual woman, is still willing to give birth to so many children for Li Fu, sometimes the wife is reluctant to have children, first of all, the husband should reflect on it, from time to time he does not take care of his wife when he gives birth to children, and he is not good enough for his wife.

"Haha, my little lover."

As soon as Li Fu saw the little baby Li Wanqing in Wang Yun's arms, the whole person immediately turned into a super daddy, and carefully hugged the little guy, at this time the little guy was looking at this colorful world with curious eyes, and the big eyes turned from time to time, carved in pink and jade, very cute.

"Be careful, sloppy."

Wang Yun had a smile on her face, if in the past, she would never have thought that one day she would have 8 children, but now, she still does not have a trace of regret, because whenever she sees her children, Wang Yun always feels full of happiness.

The eldest son Li Wanzhou has studied in college, and now he rarely goes home and pursues his dreams in school, and the second son Li Wansheng is now in high school with very good grades, and the only thing he is worried about is the problem of early love, he is too handsome, and there are many girls chasing him.

The third daughter, Li Wanqiu, is now in junior high school, very obedient, and a good baby, so she doesn't have to worry about anything at all. The fourth daughter, Li Wanjing, is also in junior high school and is also a good baby.

The fifth son Li Wandu, the sixth son Li Wanzhang, and the seventh son Li Wanyuan are still young, so they need to worry about it, but Li Fu's parents are also around, coupled with the safe environment of the empire, they can rest assured that they can play by themselves.

Of course, this kind of stocking doesn't matter what it is, Li Fu and Wang Yun have always been very strict in terms of education, every child's grades are among the best, and at the same time, they have never slackened in the cultivation of Yuanli, this stocking is just when you play, you don't need to worry about it, you don't need to be like the earth, you are afraid of that, a child often needs several adults to stare at it 24 hours a day, for fear that something will go wrong.

"Call Daddy."

Li Fu picked up the little guy, looked at her, and carefully teased her, seeing Li Fu, the little guy was also dancing excitedly, babbling.

"It's only been a few months."

Wang Yun took a bite of fruit and glanced at Li Fu.

"Brother Fu, we won't have children in the future, okay?"

Wang Yun thought about it and said what he thought in his heart, although the husband and wife are very affectionate, Li Fu also loves himself very much, and there is nothing to worry about, but pregnancy and childbirth are also a very pleasant experience for a woman, and pregnancy in October is just the beginning, giving birth to children, confinement, and raising children are really exhausting, and after giving birth to 8 children, Wang Yun does not want to have any more.

"Well, I don't give birth, I've worked hard for my wife!"

Li Fu nodded solemnly and kissed Wang Yun on the forehead, Li Fu was very grateful to Wang Yun for giving birth to so many children for himself.

Wang Yun gently rubbed Li Fu's waist, feeling extremely happy, and then looked at the little guy playing not far away, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"Ahem."

Just when Li Fu and Wang Yun were enjoying the joy of family, an inopportune voice sounded, making the two hurriedly separate, and when they looked up, they were Fang Zheng, Zhong Yun, Chen Bin, Yu Liang and others, and everyone was looking at the two with a smile at this time.

"Why are you here, please take a seat."

Li Fu was slightly embarrassed, thinking about whether this palace should set up some rules, but he knew in his heart that when they came together, they must have something to find themselves, so they hurriedly greeted everyone.

"Is there something going on here?"

Everyone surrounded the city and sat down under the giant leaf tree, Li Fu asked with a smile.

"We came here this time mainly to discuss the population issue, the population of our empire is only more than 10 million, which is too small, although we have adopted various policies to increase the population, but it will be difficult for our population to grow on a large scale for a while."

Fang Zheng nodded, after the empire became regular, he, the prime minister, could also start to solve important problems, and the top priority now was to find a way to increase the population.

"Our population is indeed too small, especially compared to the vast land we own, there has been no progress in the development of Kyushu Star, and there is only one Chang'an City in Yanhuangxing, and the city in the southern hemisphere has been uninhabited even after it was built."

"Now that the population problem has seriously hindered the rapid development of our empire, we must find a way to increase the population, at least, we need to have more than 100 million people."

Zhong Yun nodded, this is too little, there is a huge wealth in the sky, but it cannot be developed, there are powerful space warships and technology, but there is not enough population to expand externally.

"Do you have any good ways to increase the population?"

Li Fu also frowned and nodded solemnly after hearing this, Li Fu is also very worried about the population problem, this giving birth to children and raising children is not like industrial flowing water can be replicated on a large scale and without restrictions, but it takes time and energy to raise and educate in order to get an excellent high-quality population.

"We want to bring in immigrants from this side of the planet."

Fang Zheng nodded and spoke slowly.
