As the saying goes, it doesn't matter who the earth is missing, it will continue to rotate.

It's the same with another world.

Although Wen Jiming, the king of the Ming Empire, is now in retreat and cultivation in his own mansion. Grabbing

But it does not affect the development of the Ming Empire itself, at this point, there is really not much difference between him and without him in just three months.

At present, in the land of Daming, the transportation network has been basically completed, and the highway network has also been laid to every township in the country.

The construction of the railway network has also been fully opened to traffic in the capital cities of 10 of the 12 prefectures.

Public transport buses have now begun to operate in 10 prefectures, which makes it possible for people who were still active for dozens of miles around their homes a year ago to take these buses and trains directly to wherever they want.

In these extensive transportation networks, dozens of factories and enterprises open every month, providing more and more jobs for the society of the Ming Empire, so that a large number of rural people who are idle at home leave their hometowns and go to these factories and enterprises to seek a new way of life.

Especially those who have just been occupied by the Ming Dynasty, the people in the territory, they feel the most profoundly, in less than half a year, all the family income is several times more than last year.

A large number of families, which were very poor a year ago, have had an income of more than one gold yuan per month since the first two months, a figure that has reached the standard of normal family income promulgated by the Ming Empire.

At this time, in the territory controlled by Great Xia, the income of a normal middle-class family was only two copper coins per month, and this figure was only one-fifth of one gold yuan.

Due to the popularity of new cooking methods and the emergence of a large number of new kitchen utensils, these ordinary people have found that eating can also become a very happy enjoyment.

Instead, just to fill your stomach so that you can barely survive.

In the past, meat could only be eaten a few times a year, but now the average family can eat it several times a week, and in those families with better incomes, such as those with military personnel or police officers, meat is a must-have food in every meal.

At present, there are more and more fruits and vegetables that have never been seen before in various markets and vendors, making people clearly feel that the world is changing, and everyone's life is getting better and better.

With the passage of time, many new things appeared in the land of Daming, just last month, Daming Post Office began to operate in every township, providing great convenience for everyone in communication, logistics and reading.

Due to the government's implementation of free and compulsory education, the proportion of the literate population in the Ming Empire became larger and larger, and reading was no longer a privilege enjoyed by the samurai class. Rather, it is extended to the entire social class.

Nowadays, almost every family of elders will let their children and grandchildren who are studying in school read the news and serials written in the newspaper every day to themselves, and some motivated parents will even learn to read and write with their children and grandchildren.

The world has really changed.

It is becoming more and more vibrant, more and more colorful.

Because of the above reasons, the state religion of the Ming Dynasty and the future church in the land of the Ming Dynasty have developed extremely rapidly. 巘戅&#戅

Now every township has a church of the future church, and the statue of Wen Jiming is proudly erected in the middle of the main hall of each church to accept people's worship.

By the end of August, the total number of followers of the Daming Future Church had reached 8.35 million, which means that the number of believers in Wen Jiming himself is breaking through the 10 million mark.

Nearly 10 million believers provide faith power, which is a huge number, if Wen Jiming absorbs these faith power now, he will definitely become a god immediately and directly enter the ranks of immortals.

However, Wen Jiming did not intend to do this, when he discovered that the belief power could transform the surrounding magical environment, he decided to return most of these faith power to the land of Daming, and transform the magical environment here for better and better.

It is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone.

It is precisely because of this wise decision of his that he will become more expansive in the future, instead of becoming an ordinary god with no human feelings.

As a result, the effect is obvious.

Due to the transformation of the environment by a large number of religious powers, when the vocational academy conducted summer enrollment in June, the number of professional awakened people who passed the examination actually broke the historical record, reaching 13,400.

After this enrollment, the Daming Empire Vocational College, the spacious campus, suddenly became lively, making this college, which can accommodate 30,000 students in design, feel the pressure for the first time.

As a last resort, the legendary mage Herodotus, who was the dean of the academy, had no choice but to submit a request to the Ming cabinet to expand the academy, requesting that the academy be expanded into an academy that could accommodate at least 50,000 students.

The old master's proposal was quickly approved by the cabinet, and the expansion project immediately began, aiming to complete it by the end of this year. Otherwise, it will definitely affect the enrollment work at the beginning of next year.

Ma Chao, who had just been promoted to colonel and brigade commander, was now leading his First Brigade of the First Division of the First Army of the Ming Army to take a military train from Heishui Mansion to the Magic New City of Chengdu Prefecture.

His mission this time was to lead his entire brigade to receive a new type of rifle, the latest model of rifle that was finalized and named the Daming 02 bolt-action rifle.

Their brigade was selected as the first unit to be equipped with this new type of rifle, but Ma Chao did not know that when they were equipped with this rifle, their combat effectiveness would be equivalent to that of the infantry brigade at the end of the nineteenth century.

Ma Chao waited until all the officers and men of the brigade got on the bus before walking to the carriage for senior officers, and when he pushed open the door of the carriage, he suddenly found that a senior general wearing a knight's medal on his chest was sitting on the sofa in front of him drinking coffee.

Grabbing. "Salute! Imperial Army Colonel Ma Chao, salute the honorable Grand Master of the Knights, General Andrei, please instruct! ”

The Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights, Lieutenant General of the Cavalry, Andrei Ronald, smiled and returned the salute and said to Ma Chao.

"Rest Colonel, please be casual, it's not a time of war, please be seated."

After Ma Chao sat down in front of him respectfully, Andre instructed his orderlies to bring Ma Chao a cup of coffee, and then began to chat with him.

"This time you're going to Magic New City to change your new gear?"

"Yes, General, I heard that our brigade was the first to reequip, but we have not seen this new type of rifle yet."

Andre took a sip of his coffee, and then showed off to Ma Chao.

"I've seen it, and I've tested fifty rounds, which is much better than the rifle you're using now, which comes with a magazine that can hold five rounds of ammunition and can fire five times in a row without reloading."

"Moreover, the bullet is also a new type of fixed metal bullet, which has increased the range and rate of fire a lot. And equipped with a very long bayonet, it can be said that it will be a sharp weapon in the army in the future. ”

After Ma Chao heard Andre's description, he seemed quite yearning.

"That's amazing! So you're going back to get the new weapon this time? ”

Andrei became even more proud.

"It's just a part of it, this time I go back, in addition to extracting the 02 type horse pistol used by the cavalry, I also have to accept 8,000 war horses sent from the Sky Wolf Tribe, our Teutonic Knights have been expanded, this time I will be the Grand Master of the Knight in command of 10,000 cavalry!"

Ma Chao hurriedly congratulated Andre.

"Congratulations, congratulations, now your Teutonic Order is the head of the three major knights!"

After hearing this, Andrei hurriedly became modest.

"I can't say that, our three knights have different divisions of labor, the Knights Templar itself is a knight directly under the future church, they are responsible for the security of the entire church, and the Knights Hospitaller, as you know, was established by His Majesty for the sake of the people's suffering."

"Their main job is to set up hospitals in various places to treat the poor people. It is because we belong to the semi-secular military armed forces that we will expand the establishment at the first time. ”

Ma Chao praised heartily after hearing this.

"Your Majesty is really a god, to have such an emperor is a blessing for our Ming people!"

"No, no, no, Your Majesty is not a man of God, Your Majesty is a god! Do you know why just a few months ago, you were only a fourth-order full-fledged professional, but now you are a sixth-order intermediate professional? And according to my current observation of your internal situation, in less than two months, you will be promoted to the seventh order. ”

巘戅 chasing the text. Ma Chao was stunned after hearing this, yes, his promotion was really ridiculously fast. So he hurriedly asked.

"Do you know why?"

"Of course, I can tell you, but don't talk nonsense, this news is only a high-level secret at the moment. I am also optimistic about you, and I hope that you will work harder for the empire and His Majesty in the future. ”

After seeing Ma Chao nodding with a serious face, Andre said the reason softly.

"That's because Your Majesty has used the divine power he should have collected to change the magical environment around us, and you all have to advance quickly because of this. Otherwise, Your Majesty would have already become a god and ascended to heaven to create his own kingdom of heaven! ”
