Before he knew it, Liu Jide was already 100 years old.

More than ten years ago, he stopped dealing with mundane affairs and began to enjoy life.

Nominally, however, he was the leader of the Liujia industrial conglomerate.

Some of the surrounding countries have entered the industrial society, but the political system is still feudal, and the nominally most powerful person in each country is still the emperor.

However, in this large area, in dozens of countries, the Liu family's influence has surpassed that of any royal family.

The number of employees in various factories and shops of the Liu family has exceeded 100 million.

Many people live on the Liu family's industrial clusters.

They control the transportation operation rights of dozens of countries, control more than 90 percent of the steel production and sales in these dozens of countries, exclusively produce automobiles, steamboats, trains and other means of transportation, and monopolize the world's petrochemical industry.

It is no exaggeration to say that it controls the economic lifeblood of these dozens of countries.

Moreover, their strength also surpasses that of any regime in this world, and no country has the strength to destroy them, and they all have to play under the rules they have formulated.

If there are capitalists in this world, then the Liu family is the first capitalist.

On the day of Liu Jide's 100th birthday, thousands of celebrities from all over the world came to attend his birthday banquet.

The G70 royal family sent representatives to celebrate the birthday, either the crown prince or the prince.

There are also capitals from various countries that have close cooperation with Liujia Industrial Group, and they have also sent responsible persons to attend his birthday banquet.

There are also local magnates in Daqian, including some bigwigs in the Dao Palace.

In addition, there are poets and calligraphers from all over the world, who are very famous.

Those people are well-known figures in their respective fields.

But when I came here, I was out of the crowd.

So many big people gathered in the Liu family to congratulate Liu Jide on his birthday, and it was also a loss to the Liu family's great cause, otherwise they would not be able to receive it.

The Liu's home base is still in Liuzhen, but now Liuzhen is no longer what it used to be, from a farm to an industrial base.

The most prosperous city in Daqian is no longer Gyeongwoo, but Gyeongju.

The most prosperous place in Gyeongju is Liuzhen.

Now there is basically no farmland in Liuzhen, and there are high-rise buildings everywhere.

The only thing that still retains its original appearance is the Liu family compound.

The Liu family used to be very wealthy, the Liu family compound covers a large area, there are many people, the construction style is still the traditional model, and the population that can be accommodated is not as much as the building made of reinforced concrete, but it will undoubtedly be more comfortable to live in.

High-rise buildings cannot appear within three miles of the Liujia compound, and high-rise buildings can only be allowed to appear outside three miles.

However, the so-called high-rise buildings are not particularly tall now, and the highest ones are only about ten floors.

There is no elevator, and it is not a good thing to build too high, and climbing the stairs is very fatal.

The ten-story building retreated to three miles away, and it would not affect the shallow vision of the Liu family's compound.

If there is anything that has changed in the Liu family compound, what has changed is also the inside, not the outside.

The appearance is still the same as before.

However, the water pipes have been laid, the sewers have been dug, the toilets have been installed, and electricity has been used.

It looks very quaint, but it's actually more modern than anywhere else in the world.

Gyeongju has built a large hydropower plant that is currently capable of supplying electricity to several provinces.

In the future, there will be more and more electrical appliances, and the application of electricity will become more and more extensive, and there will not be so many places that can be supplied, but at least it is no problem to supply Liuzhen.

The world's first power group is located in Liuzhen, with thousands of employees, of which more than 1,000 are researching and developing various electrical products.

The first application of the electrical appliances researched was Liuzhen.

It's a convenience that can't be enjoyed anywhere else.

At present, there are four or five hundred thousand permanent residents in Liuzhen, of which there are only more than 1,000 peasants, and the others are either workers of the Liu family, researchers, family members, or people engaged in the service industry.

The implementation of new education has been so long (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 177: The Most Prosperous Place

The time has borne fruit, and researchers from all walks of life have appeared.

There are already tens of thousands of employees engaged in industrial research here in Liuzhen.

Among them, more than 1,000 people were sent blessings and wisdom by Liu Qing.

Sending wisdom is to improve their scientific research capabilities.

Sending blessings is to increase the success rate of their topic selection, avoid taking the wrong road, and study some products that are impossible to manufacture.

The salaries of those researchers are very high, and the salaries they receive are the highest, and the salaries they can get a month are higher than the six Shangshu of Daqian.

Of course, having said that, big guys like Liubu Shangshu, they don't live on Yulu.

Raising those tens of thousands of researchers and providing them with materials for scientific research, the Liu family spends more money in this area in a year than the annual treasury expenditure of an ordinary country.

But the results are also very encouraging, and from time to time something new is developed.

A large part of the reason why Liuzhen is called the birthplace of the world's industry is that the most important scientific researchers are here.

It's a place of modernity that is unmatched anywhere else in the world.

Many people who come here to participate in Liu Jide's centennial birthday are the first time to come to Liu Town, and they are shocked by the prosperity here.

Its prosperity is not only reflected in the high-rise buildings and dense population, but also in the variety of goods.

A lot of the goods they had never seen before.

For example, you can leave images of people in a photo studio.

For example, bicycles and motorcycles on two wheels, tricycles on three wheels, cars on four wheels, and tractors that can be ploughed with plows and rakes.

For example, a washing machine that can be turned when plugged in.

Not to mention that when night comes, the electric lights and street lights are turned on, and the entire Willow Town shines brightly, becoming a city that never sleeps.

The envoys sent by the various emperors were all taken into the Liu family compound to live, and the rest of the people were arranged to live in hotels outside.

But even those envoys, at night, can't help but go out shopping and experience the prosperity of Willow Town.

Many distinguished guests have this thought in their hearts:

"Wouldn't it be nice if one day our country could be so prosperous?"

Then I made up my mind:

"We must develop industry and follow the Liu family, only in this way can we become richer."

Liu Jide has long been accustomed to those things, and he prefers the slower pace of life in the past.

Fortunately, now he doesn't have to worry about things, just enjoy life.

He didn't know how many years he would live, but he didn't care about death at all.

He believed that Liu Qing would have a proper arrangement for him.

On the day of his 100th birthday, when he offered incense to Liu Qing, he prayed as usual: "I hope that after I die, I can become a god like my father and live forever." ”

At this time, Liu Qing's voice sounded in my mind:

"I'll give you two options......"
