An eroded Divine Source Machine, in exchange for a complete set of core manufacturing technologies of the Divine Source Machine, is theoretically earned.

However, theory is theory, and how easy is it to really try to build it? Some industrial technologies are not large enough for the country to a certain extent, and even if they can miraculously develop them, they will not be able to support them.

Evan understood this kind of thing in his previous life.

There was a neighbor to the north of the porcelain country, called Rakshasa, which at the end of the twentieth century was one of the two poles of the world. The technology tree in heavy industry has also reached the top, but after the disintegration, it has collapsed, and not only has technology stagnated, but even local industry is almost unable to sustain itself.

Why?

Some say it's a matter of the level of governance, others say it's a blockade by the West. Some say that the disintegration caused Rakshasa to lose many of its heavy industrial bases, while others say that it was the oligarchic problem caused by shock therapy.

These answers are all right, but they don't get to the root of it.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is because the volume is insufficient, the more developed science and technology, the more complex the division of labor and cooperation in society, and the higher the requirements for the size of the country. Before the disintegration of the Rakshasa was close to 300 million people, after the disintegration of less than 150 million. How can a population that has plummeted to double sustain the social division of labor that could only be maintained by 300 million people?

After the collapse and reorganization of the social division of labor, the original industrial system will naturally collapse and reorganize, so until the population problem is solved, the Rakshasa will never be able to recover from the Rakshasa before the disintegration.

In the same way, the more high-end and advanced science and technology, the larger the national volume support.

Even with the scientific and technological level of Blue Star in the 21st century, it is impossible for small countries to turn over with science and technology, which is why there is a Europa community. The technological level of a small country surpasses that of a large country, and then bulldozes a large country by means of black technology, this kind of fairy tale will only appear in the animation of Area 11.

Therefore, after Evan took over the core technology of the Shenyuan Machine and went through the initial excitement period, he began to feel extremely chicken. Although there is a precedent for Mostima to create the Evil King, the people are lurking in the Federation, using the Federation's industry and technology to accomplish it. Theoretically, the Evil King is a Divine Source Machine produced by the Federation, and it is a different thing from the Poor and White Menes Empire to develop the Divine Source Machine.

Shenyuan machine technology is equivalent to the aerospace industry technology of Blue Star in the 21st century, which small countries cannot afford to consume no matter what.

Evan calculated that the Federation had a high-quality industrial population of eight billion, which supported the super industry led by the Shenyuan Machine, so as to continuously conquer the external world and eventually dominate the galaxy. And the Menes Empire has been consumed by the demonic plague, and the total population is now only more than 100 million. The industrial population is currently zero, and I want to rely on them to research the Shenyuan machine industry...... There is no hope for at least four to five centuries.

Therefore, the technology of the Divine Source Machine is rotten in the hands.

According to Ivan's current speculation, before the industrial population reaches the scale of one billion, the manufacturing industry of the Shenyuan Machine is almost equivalent to a waste of national power, so it is better to forget it for the time being. Now I hugged Shylock's thigh, hugged it well, tried to encourage compulsory education for childbirth, and raised the quality and quantity of the population is the right thing to do.

In addition, the mechanical life forms manufactured by Ewen are also equivalent to a highly qualified industrial population. It's a pity that his transformation speed is too slow, and mechanical life can't reproduce itself, and the production of 3,000 units a year is enough to choke.

If there is a way to solve the transformation efficiency of mechanical life...... The future of the Menes Empire must be limitless.

One by one, one by one

After the end of the demonic disaster, the entire empire also carried out a round of infrastructure construction. Relying on the huge automatic industry, it took only a few months to restore the urban construction of twenty-one provinces. And taking advantage of this nationwide infrastructure construction, most of the people in the country have their own houses - by the way, the designer, the person in charge, and the chief commander of the project for this infrastructure construction are all Xiaoxi.

On this basis, thanks to the unilateral subsidies of the Empire, the 21st provinces also had clean running water and cheap electricity.

This can be said to be a heavenly life for the Menes people, who were still struggling with food and clothing in the past! Especially the construction of water conservancy facilities with reservoir construction and river diversion as the core. This kind of project to bring water pipes to thousands of households is a self-evident benefit to Menes, a country half of the country on the desert.

Just letting everyone drink clean water is a virtue that has not been seen for thousands of years.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Evan's reputation among the people is already that of the contemporary Daxian King.

You must know that it is basically the tradition of every ancient country to be thick and thin, and in the concept of Menes, the same honorific title can only be obtained by contemporary people who have to pay many times more merit than ancient people. And the honorific title of King Xian is basically for the dead, and now that Ivan is alive, he has obtained it, proving that he has indeed made great contributions.

It's not surprising to think about it, reforming and renewing, defending the country, punishing the enemy, and practicing virtuous government, everything that the ancient virtuous kings could do, every article of Yiwen did.

This honorific name is indeed justified.

The city of Ekhtadon, the palace of the kings, the setting sun shines on the bright dome.

Due to the long heritage of the Menes Empire, the shape and specifications of the palace of the kings must follow the ancient system. However, some fine-tuning is still possible, and now a full set of information equipment has been installed, and you can connect to the Federation's network while sitting in the main hall.

The young Sun King sat at the end of the golden staircase, and the knight of the corona in silver armor stood at the front of the staircase, staring at the table with a blank face, the spear in his hand refracting a blinding beam.

"I'm worried. He said slowly.

"The demon calamity has calmed down, the four seas have been peaceful, I don't know where Your Majesty's worries come from?" asked Andyeb, the head of the Court of the French King, cautiously.

"The Plague is just one of Menes' many enemies, and now the Plague has been pacified...... The conundrum before us is the external environment. Ivan clenched the armrest of the throne with both hands and said with a twisted brow.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much!" Senid, the chief official of the Discipline Academy, stood up from his seat and said in a loud voice: "The empire is now guarded by two giant gods, and has the record of killing the Lord of Radiance, and the foreign enemies near the star field are afraid that they will not have time, and they will definitely not have the courage to oppose the Menes Empire!"

The so-called giant gods, of course, refer to the two divine source machines, the king of light, Ugart, and the evil king Bardock. The advantage of the existence of these two is that it greatly enhances the self-confidence of the Menes people and strengthens the concept of divine authority of kings. The bad thing is that it makes them swell a little, and they feel that the empire has been reborn and can be completely raised eyebrows.

"What do you know! Neither I, nor the head of the Kalenz Sect, can use the full power of the giant god. ”

Hearing his words, Evan's face sank, and he looked as black as the bottom of the pot: "The empire holds two giant gods, just like a child walking in the downtown with gold bricks in his arms...... I'm really worried. ”

"Yes...... But ......"

Under the rebuke of the Sun King, Senid's bold words seemed to be blocked in his throat, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "That Apostle of the Star of Metrocent, hasn't His Majesty Shylock already declared that he wants to protect the Empire? Who dares to disobey the will of the Apostle?"

"Are you the only apostle in the world!?" Ivan couldn't control his anger and said something he shouldn't have said.

Since Shylock can follow the Lord of Darkness from the Empire, if another Apostle sets her sights on the Lord of Light or the King of Evil, will she be the enemy of the other party for the sake of the little Hyperion!? The answer is obvious and obvious, the Apostle only sees the Apostle himself, and the Lord of Light is just a toy, and the Menes Empire is even more insignificant.

In fact, if it weren't for dealing with the Lord of Radiance, Ivan would have kept the secret of his possession of the Divine Source Machine in his stomach and kept it secret until he had the strength of the inheritance level. But now that the wood is in the boat, the news that should be spread has been spread, and he can't do anything to undo it, so he has such a headache.

“......”

Because the weight of this sentence was too great, the ministers present could only pretend not to hear it, and Evan simply half-pushed and half-pretended that he didn't say anything.

"Your Majesty, the Empire is in dire need of a reliable ally now!"

At this time, Senator Ptolemy of the cabinet stood up, bowed, and said, "This ally should dilute Shylock's influence on the Empire, and have a strong enough power radiation - to ensure the safety of the Empire, but also far enough away from the planet Hyperion." ”

"Ptolemy's thoughts, tell me straight. Ivan waved his hand irritably, and at the same time motioned for the waiter next to him to fan himself.

"The minister felt that it would be harmful to the empire to remain under the wing of Lord Shylock. Therefore, it is necessary for us to strengthen ourselves while pulling in an ally that is sufficient to balance Lord Shylock. ”

Ptolemy stood at the table and looked up at the Sun Throne from afar, his eyes shining:

"I thought that Lord Bakar of Trobot might be an ally of the Empire. Of course, it is impossible for us to form an alliance with this apostle on the surface, which would inevitably anger Lord Shylock. But maybe another way can be done...... I heard that Lord Exploding Dragon has a wide range of hobbies, although he is a dragon, there are concubines from various races in the harem, especially the largest number of human women.

His Majesty consulted the portrait of the Federal Holy Prostitute (beauty pageant champion), and her appearance was only in the middle and upper echelons of the Empire, which shows that in terms of good looks, the women of the Empire can be said to be the first of the human race. Among the women of the empire, the members of the royal family are the most beautiful, and His Majesty may try to select an outstanding royal woman, make her a royal daughter, and marry the Dragon King as a concubine. ”

"And pro? huh...... It's worth a try. Evan thought for a moment and agreed with him.

Judging from the style of the Dragon Blaster, there will be no loss in doing so, and it probably won't bring much gain, so it can only be said that it is worth investing.

"If Lord Bakar agrees to this family affair, His Majesty will also take the opportunity to ask for intermarriage. If you can marry a dragon girl, it will obviously be of great benefit to the empire. Seeing that he had agreed, Ptolemy added.

"You want me to marry Bakar's daughter!?"

When Evan heard this, he immediately thought of the appearance of the mad dragon Hess - even he had to admit that the appearance of the dragon clan was still very guaranteed.

"Your Majesty is poison to women, and Your Majesty firmly believes that even the women of the dragon clan will die if you are willing. I hope that Your Majesty will think about the overall situation...... Besides, the women of the dragon clan have always been good looking...... "The more Ptolemy spoke, the more weak his heart became, and when he had finished speaking, he buried his head.

Damn toxic.

Evan had this idea in his heart at this time, and he couldn't imagine that his dignified Sun King would one day have to rely on his face to eat. However, I have to admit that if I can really marry a dragon girl as a concubine, then the development prospects of the empire will definitely be better.

"I'll leave this matter to the Discipline Academy. ”

He thought for a moment, agreed to the other party's proposal, and then turned his gaze to the head of the Weiwang Hall: "Uncle Bad, the object of friendship will be selected by you." Find me a group of smart and beautiful candidates, and I will personally select the specific candidates. ”

"Yes!" said Governor Bard immediately stood up and saluted, indicating that he had received the order.

"That's all for today's discussion, let's all go back. Yi Wenyi stood up excitedly, and after announcing the adjournment of the meeting, he walked to the mirror corridor leading to the palace with a guard of honor.

One by one, one by one

As soon as he left the palace of the king, Xia Li hurriedly followed with the corner of her skirt like a little tail:

"Brother Ivan, don't be me!"

"Rest assured. ”

Evan patted her little brain and said with a smile: "Since I have promised you, I will not marry you." And you're still young...... It's not smart enough, marrying a big man like the dragon king will only be left out in the cold. ”

"I ...... say that"

Xia Li drooped her head, obviously suffering a big blow, and began to give up on herself sadly: "I'm small, weak, and stupid, and I can't help Brother Ivan...... I've hurt you before......"

"Don't mention the past, after all, it wasn't your intention, but the result of Ozmandis' brainwashing. As he spoke, Evan slapped her head hard, causing her to burst into tears.

Doot – Doot Doot——!

At this moment, the identifier on his left hand suddenly rang, and when he raised his wrist to look, he found that it was a video text message from the golden clown. This guy is also quite fateful, in the decisive battle between them and the Lord of Radiance, he was just crushed in the ruins of the lunar base, and he was not killed by the aftermath of the explosion. So he was left on the moon afterwards, and was responsible for the reconstruction of the lunar base, and incidentally took charge of the task of exploring minerals.

After clicking on the video communication, the figure of the golden clown suddenly appeared on the watch screen, it first bowed exaggeratedly, and then said excitedly: "Lord Evan, we have detected a large number of precious metals on the moon, and there are about 20,000 tons of gold alone!"

"Good, good, very good!" said Evan.

The current monetary system of the empire is still the gold and silver standard, and the more precious metals the better, and when paper money reform is carried out in the future, paper money will also need to be issued based on the reserves of precious metals.
