Infinite energy represents unlimited opportunities for trial and error.
Doing experiments consume too much electricity?
Tens of thousands of energy needs to be consumed at a time?
Do!
If others find out, they think we can’t afford the experiment!
Starting today, there’s no limit to your lab budget! And everyone can apply to do experiments!
Doing experiments, especially high-end experiments, is actually quite expensive. For example, the famous particle collider, not to mention the cost of construction, the electricity cost just to turn it on once is an astronomical figure.
More importantly, even if you start the experiment, you often don't get the correct results. At most, you just eliminate an incorrect result.
That's what experimental physics is like.
You need to spend a lot of resources to verify the correctness of its theoretical physics, but it is often very difficult to verify it.
So far, a large number of physical theories have not been verified.
For physics, even if you verify that this theory is wrong, it is of very important significance - it means that you have eliminated a wrong path.
It is a pity that due to the lack of energy, a large number of physical theories have not been verified whether they are right or wrong. They are piled up there like 'garbage', waiting for people to 'pick up'.
Maybe one day in the future, someone will pick up the 'pearl' inside and let it shine with its own light again.
But when this day will come, no one in modern physics knows - there is no way, who makes them so short of energy?
But in terms of theoretical physics, modern physics has far surpassed experimental physics. A large part of the reason why physics has not made much progress over the years is because 'experiments' cannot keep up.
A large number of papers fail to verify the results, and naturally progress cannot be made.
But today, everything is different.
The emergence of nuclear fusion made the entire Wu Dynasty no longer need to worry about energy matters, and all laboratories could conduct research without restraint.
It has been many years since it stopped. No, with Xu Yi's help, the physics of this world seems to have never stopped in a real sense.
After all, it was only the 25th year of the Wu Dynasty, and industrialization had just been completed not long ago. Even except for the Central Plains region, many places were still trying to absorb this knowledge of physics.
However, the emergence of unlimited energy has also greatly improved the way forward in physics, allowing research in all aspects to increase significantly.
Physics is the backbone of the entire scientific civilization. The growth and progress of physics will naturally greatly increase the growth of the entire civilization.
This is reflected in the real world - human resources are becoming less and less 'necessary'.
After civilization enters industrialization, many positions no longer require human labor. Various large machines can directly replace human work, and can even do it better than humans!
However, due to energy, policy and other reasons, a large amount of manpower is still used in various places.
After the energy problem disappears and the entire world has almost unlimited energy, a large amount of labor can be completely replaced by various large and medium-sized machinery.
Even if it requires manpower, it only requires one to operate the machine - this is mainly because Xu Yi has not yet developed artificial intelligence.
If Xu Yi had developed artificial intelligence at this time, there would be no need for these people to operate the machine - the machine could operate by itself!
Twenty-five years of the Wu Dynasty.
This is destined to be a year that will go down in history.
This year, nuclear fusion was officially born, and mankind began to enter the era of unlimited energy.
Under the leadership of the imperial court, the entire society began to undergo great changes again.
A large number of manpower has been replaced by machines, and a large number of people have lost their jobs and become unemployed.
Faced with this situation, all the ministers could not sit still. Under the leadership of Song Que, they quickly found Xu Yi in the palace.
"Your Majesty!"
Song Que said solemnly.
"Due to the promotion policy of nuclear fusion, energy prices have plummeted! Although the world has embarked on a rapid development direction, at the same time, the unemployment rate has also risen repeatedly! So far, in just three months, the unemployed population has reached 100% Thirty!"
"If things go on like this, if this continues, people will not be able to live well, and this may lead to civil unrest!"
Throughout the ages, the decline of any dynasty almost always started with a 'civilian rebellion'.
Therefore, there are famous sayings such as "the country is based on the people", water can carry a boat but also capsize it, etc. These are all warning the top officials of the imperial court to pay attention to people's livelihood and understand the people's sentiments.
Otherwise, one day, this world will perish to the people of the world!
Of course, these examples certainly do not include the current Wu Dynasty.
How powerful is the Wu Dynasty today?
Just choose a thousand-man regiment from the Suzaku Legion and it will be enough to sweep the world and suppress all dissatisfaction!
Civil uprising?
It could not shake the foundation of Wu Dynasty at all.
As long as the Suzaku Legion is still there, no one in this world can threaten the rule of the Wu Dynasty.
Song Que knew this, and so did many of the ministers present.
Even Song Que knew more than many ministers!
In the past twenty-five years, although he had focused most of his energy on handling the affairs of the Wu Dynasty, he had never slackened in his martial arts training.
After twenty-five years of training, especially after obtaining a complete martial arts training system from Xu Yi, his strength can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.
He had reached the realm of Grand Master twenty-five years ago, but twenty-five years later, he had already vaguely felt the meaning of 'Shattered Void'.
Song Que even had a feeling that as long as he exploded with all his strength, there was at least a 70-80% chance of shattering the void and ascending to the upper world.
It's just that he was thinking about the future of the Chinese nation, suppressed himself, and never did that.
Logically speaking, having reached the Broken Void realm, he should be the most powerful person in the world.
After all, if you go one step further, you will ascend to the upper realm.
But like this, when he faced Xu Yi, he found that the gap between him and Xu Yi not only did not narrow, but became even wider!
At some point, Song Que even had the feeling that if Xu Yi wanted to kill him, all it would take was one look.
A look?
Kill him, the being who can shatter the void?
Song Que didn't want to believe such a thing in his heart, but after experiencing it many times, he couldn't help but not believe it.
Xu Yi has indeed reached a state that he cannot understand at all!
A single look can kill the strong man of Shattered Void. How terrifying is this power?
What kind of things will Xu Yi be able to do with such terrifying power?
Song Que couldn't understand or figure it out.
But he knows.
After reaching Xu Yi's level, even if everyone in the world rebelled, including him, the strong man of Shattering the Void, and all the soldiers of the Suzaku Legion, it would not be able to shake Xu Yi's rule at all.
Xu Yi alone can suppress them all in the world!
That is already a power that is completely beyond this world!
With such power, no matter how chaotic the world becomes, Wu Dynasty, or Xu Yi, can maintain absolute rule.
Song Que understood this very well, but even so, he still came.
He understood, but he still had to consider the future of the Chinese nation in this world!
After so many years of hard work, he finally saw that the Chinese nation in this world was standing on top of the world. Song Que didn't want this peak to pass away in a flash.
So even if he died in front of Xu Yi, he would still give advice to the people.
Of course, admonition for the people is necessary, but Song Que still knew how to speak, so he immediately changed the subject.
"I understand that the replacement of manpower by machines is a general trend and cannot be changed. I will not ask the Holy One to stop this."
"But I still hope that for the sake of all the people in the world, the Holy One can slow down a little so that more ordinary people can keep up with us."
After speaking, Song Que bowed deeply.
Behind him, a group of ministers also kowtowed at the same time.
"I hope that the Holy One will make a living for the people of the world and slow down a little! Give the people of the world a chance!"
For those who don’t know, when they saw this scene, they probably thought they were trying to force her to have a baby.
Looking at this group of ministers, it can be said that each one is at the top of the Wu Dynasty. Together, they control almost most of the power of the Wu Dynasty.
At this moment, they gathered together. Under the leadership of Song Que, they wanted Xu Yi to take a step back in the name of all the people in the world. Isn't this forcing him to marry?
Of course, only the ministers here know.
They are really not trying to force you to have a baby!
But for the sake of the people in the world, he was willing to put his own life first and pray that Xu Yi would walk a little slower.
"You are all good ministers serving the country and the people!"
Xu Yi sighed and said.
"Everyone, get up. If you look like this, others will think that I am some kind of eternal tyrant!"
"This...I don't dare!"
All the ministers said this, but the waist was still bent, even lower.
If Wu Chao hadn't knelt down, they would have knelt down right now!
It is obvious that they have made their own decisions in order to achieve their goals.
As long as Xu Yi doesn't change his tune, they won't be able to afford to worship him forever!
There is nothing we can do about this.
Because apart from this, they couldn't think of any way to make Xu Yi change his mind.
To force him to death?
After Xu Yi really killed many such ministers, everyone knew that it was impossible for him to accept, or even extremely disgusted with, this method of admonishment.
Even if it was originally a good thing, if you do it this way, not only will you not be able to achieve the corresponding results, but you will probably mess it up!
So in the end, after much deliberation, they had no choice but to do this.
"You guys!"
Xu Yi shook his head, walked slowly to Song Que, and asked.
"Song Gong, let me ask you, do you know the essence of people's work?"
“The nature of people’s work?”
Song Que was slightly stunned.
He then thought about it carefully and finally answered.
"It's for life! Because work can provide them with a better life, that's why they want to work!"
This is why they came to remonstrate.
Because for the people, without a job, it is equivalent to without a life.
Since they no longer have a life, how can they still live? Rebellion has naturally become inevitable!
"wrong!"
Xu Yi rejected it directly and then gave his own answer.
“They work because they create profit!”
"Benefit?"
Song Que frowned.
He naturally understood what Xu Yi meant.
The essence of a person's work is to create benefits.
If a person can no longer create benefits, then he will naturally not be able to work.
This statement is very direct, cruel, and realistic, and it makes people unable to find anything wrong with it.
But the fact that there is nothing wrong with it does not mean that this sentence is correct.
As Song Que said before, machines replacing manpower is indeed the future trend and an irreversible result!
After the emergence of nuclear fusion and unlimited energy, this has become a foregone conclusion.
Unless the Wu Dynasty returns to ancient society from today on, or simply abandons nuclear fusion, or even seals away all knowledge about nuclear fusion, this general trend cannot change.
Song Que understood this very well.
He didn't want to stop this from happening.
After all, if you want to step into the sea of stars, you must go through this step.
But knowing it all, he still wanted to admonish Xu Yi and ask him to walk a little slower to give the millions of people in the Wu Dynasty some breathing space.
"Your Majesty, please tell us that talents are the primary productive force!"
"We cannot determine the birth of talents, but we can expand the scale of ordinary people. As long as the scale is large, talents will naturally spurt out."
After a pause, Song Que looked at Xu Yi and said very seriously.
"Holy Lord, we need more people! Even in the future galaxy era, we still need, no, we need more people!"
He didn't answer Xu Yi's words because he didn't know how to refute them.
But he did not compromise because of this, but directly changed the subject and answered Xu Yi's words with another sentence.
It is true that in today's era, the vast majority of people are no longer able to create value, but are they really useless?
No!
Maybe he himself is useless, but who knows that his son, his grandson, and even his great-grandson are also useless?
What if one of his great-grandsons has a top talent comparable to Lu Miaozi?
These are unpredictable things.
Although there are some suspicions of quibbling and changing concepts, these remarks are indeed reasonable.
It can only be said that Song Que obviously did a very good job in convincing Xu Yi!
"Hahaha!"
Xu Yi laughed loudly.
"Song Gong is very reasonable! I have the same idea about this!"
"Well???"
Song Que was stunned for a moment.
"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"I never said I would give up on them!"
Xu Yi looked at Song Que with a half-smile.
Song Que was shocked and asked quickly, regardless of being laughed at.
"So what are you going to do, Your Majesty?"
"It's impossible to slow down!"
Xu Yi first confirmed this, but then said.
"But... we can always keep them!"
