Chapter 409: Correctness, Advancement, and Inevitability
Coming to the edge of the "demonstration field", three leaders are carefully digging up the newly sprouted wheat seeds from the nursery area and transplanting them to other open spaces in the "demonstration field". (Wheat seedlings are small and need to be buried in the soil to continue to grow the next year)
This is a nursery area specially set aside by Xia Duo, and it has been kept until the princess arrives, and then someone will be arranged for transplantation. Up to now, nearly 6 acres of "demonstration fields" have been developed, but nearly one acre has not been planted.
When the wheat seedlings are fully planted, they are almost full.
And before winter, as long as more open space can be cleared, Xia Duo can also convert all of them into "demonstration fields", after all, there is no time limit for spell spawning.
Xia Duo stretched out his hand and drew a large circle in front of him, and introduced: "Your Royal Highness Princess, this is the first batch of farmland that is expected to be opened up in Linshui Village in Great Xia, with a total of 100 acres, and nearly 6 acres have been cleared of debris, leveled land, and barley planting. ”
In order to explain more conveniently and vividly, Xia Duo also showed the farmland planning map in the situation of magical images, in his planning, in addition to the first batch, there are also the second and third batches.
Eventually, it will expand to the east where the elven ruins are locked in the east, and in the future, the continuous clearing of the forest will also become an important decision of the Great Xia Lord, and it will continue to be carried out.
Of course, this requires a lot of manpower and material resources to be done.
However, seeing that this large area of land is occupied by forests, and cannot be used by people to develop population, people's livelihood, and magic, Xia Duo always has some unbearable feelings in his heart.
Although Xia Duo only showed some of the farmland plans, Princess Xia was very interested in it, as she knew, no territory would have such a long-term plan before the development, and she felt that Xia Duo should have more plans.
So he proposed to take a look at other places, and asked as he walked: "Just now I noticed that the wheat seeds of the Great Xia Collar were born in advance using magic, and then transplanted?" ”
This unique way also made her very curious, although she was a Grand Arcanist, it was more of an achievement in the field of magic, and she might not be as good as an ordinary peasant woman when it came to farming.
As a Grand Arcanist, if there is anything she doesn't understand, she doesn't need to worry about anything, just ask.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, in the past, the seeds were just planted at random, the germination rate was very low, and the later stage had to be replanted many times, which was a waste of seeds, and the method of raising seedlings in advance used by the Great Xia Ling, even if it did not use magic to spawn, it could also artificially transform the environment suitable for germination, thereby greatly improving the overall germination rate, as for what environment is most suitable for germination, this can be summarized through many groping attempts."
Xia Duo said in detail, in fact, even without his intervention, the ordinary farmer who is resistant to color may develop suitable or even more suitable agricultural techniques in the future.
It's just that it requires an environment that elevates agriculture and farmers to a higher status.
This is evident on the planet, after all, no matter how demeaning the peasants are, all people's food is grown by the peasants.
However, in Nesser, mages can also farm, and the Arcane Garden has no problem meeting the mage's own needs, and can even be supplied to the outside world, in this case, it is difficult for the status of farmers to improve.
This is determined by the actual environment, and the timing of Xia Duo's intervention is relatively early, and the upper and lower classes of Nesseril have not yet formed a clear separation, and the spell is integrated into all aspects of ordinary people's production and life in advance, and the concept of mage is sinking, which is conducive to gaining the widest support of the population.
Mages and high-level mages are a small number of elites after all, and if there is no support from a wider population and a steady stream of new blood replenishment, maybe one day after a high-level mage leaves, it will have a very far-reaching impact and make the entire civilization collapse.
In fact, this is where the correctness, advancedness, and inevitability of the whole people's revision of the law lies.
In the face of the princess, Xia Duo does not need to instill the concept with her very straightforwardly, this is not necessary, but through relevant methods, let her understand the truth in it.
Including the completed "Great Xia Ling Standard Development Manual", Xia Duo did not talk about his own ideas in it, but hid all this behind one behavior after another.
If you accept his actions, you will inevitably accept his ideas.
The replacement of backward productive forces by advanced productive forces and the replacement of backward production relations by advanced production relations are the historical inevitability of historical materialism.
Of course, in the wizarding world, there may be differences in details, such as in Color, where faith can generate power, which can blur the line between the advanced and the backward.
However, from a broader perspective and a longer time scale, there is no doubt that the advanced will replace the backward.
As for the specific analysis of specific problems, Xia Duo can't understand what advanced is in a wider perspective and longer time scale, but for now, he has completely grasped what is advanced.
This may be repeated in the future, but Xia Duo will always learn, analyze, analyze and learn in real time, and keep pace with the times and embrace the future as much as possible.
……
The next stop after the "demonstration field" is the Altar Square, which is really nothing to see, just a small square, and there are similar infrastructure in other places.
Xia Duo has always been very cautious about the realm of gods, and he has not thought of any innovation on a whim, and looking at the princess's attitude, he doesn't seem to have much interest here.
The group soon skimmed over here and headed north.
To the north is the residential area, now the villagers, and in the future it may be the townspeople and citizens, and the rows of modular manufacturing and wooden houses are almost completely the same except for the different textures of the wood.
Chado duly introduced the process of making these wooden houses to Princess Xia, and the next stop was the wooden house making workshop.
Hundreds of people are busy, and the most eye-catching thing is the various rulers and angles they pick up from time to time.
Since most of these craftsmen were temporarily trained by ordinary lords, and the carpenters were inexperienced, Xia Duo prepared a lot of rulers for them when designing modular manufacturing solutions.
For example, if you want to produce front wall planks, there is a special front wall ruler, which is marked in advance, and how long, wide and thick it is to be marked for their convenience.
Without these, it would be difficult to achieve so-called modular manufacturing and mass production, because without these, we would have to rely on the experience of carpenters.
And experience is difficult to quantify and popularize, which is not taken by Xia Duo, he hopes to quantify the so-called experience, and to achieve the ultimate is-
The most basic carpenter only needs to be able to read the drawings and skillfully use various tools to make a qualified product. And further, it may be the creation of new drawings, the study of wood properties, the invention of new tools, and so on.
Turning carpenters into carpenters, this is the idea of industrialization on the planet.
In the field of magic, it is actually a subdivision of the study and performance of magic.
