Chapter 130: The Modern Kingdom
In the fourteenth year of Tianbao, An Lushan and Shi Siming rebelled, and the Tang Dynasty began to decline.
And Zhang Wang has always been a cold bystander, just like an outsider, human greed, he can prevent a world chaos, but it is impossible to take action by himself every time, if human beings do not learn to learn the preciousness of peace in these traumas, then one day the world will continue to be in chaos, this world, originally belongs to careerists.
Of course, these situations basically do not exist in the Treasure Elephant Country, not that the people of the Treasure Elephant Country are not human, they have all kinds of personalities, and greed is just one of them.
It's just that Zhang Wang has carried out a relatively thorough reform in the Baoxiang Kingdom, which is a large country with a territory of thousands of miles, but it was used by Zhang Wang for experiments, and his goal is very simple, that is, to catalyze this country into a modern country.
Not only in science and technology, but also in humanities.
In four years, under the leadership of the three technical minds, the entire Baoxiang country has become a super construction site, and hundreds of millions of people have gradually participated.
The first is to build roads, if you want to get rich first build roads, this is a very loud slogan in the previous life, a hundred years ago Baoxiang country has begun to build roads, but now it is the construction of cement pavement, which belongs to the railway, and is already in the planning.
The second was the establishment of factories of all kinds, mainly in the textile industry, which were almost all nationalized, and of course private ownership was also encouraged.
Since a long time ago, Zhang Wang has begun to send people to collect cotton seeds, and then cultivate and optimize, and the cotton seeds at this time are no less than the excellent varieties in the previous life.
These infrastructure, the establishment of factories, in fact, is mainly led by the government, or led by the Immortal Religion, although Zhang Wang spares no effort to open up the wisdom of the people, but not everyone likes to run around for these things, compared to the treasure elephant country, the people have basically no worries about food and clothing, just need to do their own work, there is no need to spend too much other thoughts, to make money and work hard.
Of course, it doesn't mean that they haven't gone to the sea, some people still like this more exciting life, for them they are tired of doing repetitive work every day, so it is better to do something to do.
In this way, in four years, Baoxiang Kingdom has built the world's largest road network, covering basically every small and medium-sized city, and even some larger towns have these cement roads.
Then there was the development of basic industries, the steel industry was undoubtedly the most important, but it only took two years for his scientists to build several super steel plants.
Don't wonder if this is too fast, this is the existence of extraordinary power, coupled with a hundred years of technical reserves, as long as it is given a few years, every household with electric lights is trivial, countless cables are being manufactured and laid at the same time.
