Looking at Xiao He's curious look, Taiping Taoist shook his head directly: "I have also heard about this task. The distribution map of water spiritual energy in the sea area of 3,000, 5,000 and 10,000 miles around Yancheng is a big project in the first place. The workload was really huge and required a lot of time and energy, so at that time, I only understood the first phase of the tasks and didn’t actually do them.”
"Later, the governor's office offered a reward of 10 billion yuan. At that time, I quietly tried it."
"I have calculated using celestial numerology, and found that if I rely solely on myself, I can calculate it by hard calculation, but the time required will take at least ten years."
"However, even if I calculate the real pattern ten years from now, it will still be the distribution of water element energy ten years ago. Who knows what it will look like ten years from now?"
"I feel that if you want to thoroughly understand the laws, you must not only be good at the secret method, but also be good at arithmetic. You need to improve your arithmetic to a level that is astonishing. Although I am good at the secret method, my arithmetic skills are only It can be said to be average.”
Having said this, Taiping Taoist took out a textbook: "This textbook is the arithmetic textbook in Yancheng Junior Academy."
"In the Yancheng Junior Academy, five or six courses including arithmetic, history, logic, pictographic boxing, visualization, and breathing are given equal emphasis."
"Even in intermediate schools, arithmetic, history, and logic still occupy an important position."
"I heard that these three courses were compiled by Mr. Yan himself. At first, I thought it was Mr. Yan's personal hobby. History is easy to understand. History is everything. To forget history is to forget everything. This is easy to understand. But arithmetic and logic, I really didn’t understand very much at the beginning.”
"It wasn't until I read the specific textbooks in person that I discovered that logic is really an important subject that can change people's way of thinking!"
"I heard that many great nobles have added the book logic to their family studies, and it is also a required course."
"It is said that Mr. Yan is the new direct disciple of Mo Sheng. I didn't believe it before, but after reading the book Logic, I felt that if you were not a disciple of Mo Sheng, you wouldn't be able to write such a book!"
"It's a pity that many people are illiterate and think that the book "Logic" is too obscure and difficult to understand, and the things mentioned in it are too metaphysical. They think it is just making up mysteries, but they don't know that the content of this book is The most valuable!”
"After learning this book, you can really increase your wisdom."
"Realizing the importance of logic, I went to read arithmetic. Then I saw the words on the title page of Mr. Yan himself: Mathematics is the basis of everything and the foundation of all things. Once you learn mathematics, you will Learned everything!”
"At first, I was unconvinced."
"Even after reading the arithmetic textbook, I still wasn't convinced by this statement."
“It wasn’t until I started trying to use mathematics to study real life that I discovered that mathematics can really describe everything we see!”
"Why is the armor designed like this?"
“How to efficiently calculate the area of a field?”
“How to calculate the data you want to know with limited tools?”
“How can I use mathematics to record, describe or even deduce the future I want?”
"The more I study, the more I discover that arithmetic is really not an ordinary subject. It is a subject that can be applied to almost all industries!"
"I think if you want to figure out the specific laws of water energy within a radius of three thousand miles, five thousand miles, or ten thousand miles, you have to be a math genius."
"I really wanted to be a math genius, but I found that if you don't know how to do math, you really don't know how to do it."
"I can use secret techniques to make my soul more powerful. I can calculate hundreds of millions of times or more in a single thought, but when it comes to calculations, I still can't do it!"
Xiao He agreed with Taiping Taoist's ideas, because he had also tried to use his powerful cultivation to solve arithmetic problems. Some simple and obvious ones can produce miracles directly, but slightly more complex ones are difficult to calculate by hand, and even if they are calculated by hand, it will take a lot of time.
"Arithmetic is indeed mysterious. The more you study it, the more you feel you know nothing about it. Moreover, in terms of application, arithmetic can be applied to almost any industry. The master's natural talents are incomparable to those of others." As he said, Xiao He cupped his hands in the direction of Jun's Mansion.
“Are there any other big projects that can make money?”
Xiao He thought for a moment: "Yes, Xuegong Jiu Miao (Wang Miao) is trying to resist extreme weather such as typhoons near Dongning Island from the perspective of Taoism."
Wang Miao awakened the Fangfeng family's bloodline after becoming a Fangfeng family member. When he came here last year, he was just a doctor. Now he is learning new knowledge from various journals and dealing with wind and water all the time. Now his bloodline has advanced. He became a second-generation prime minister, sitting in the academy and offering wine.
"Currently, Jijiu Miao has successfully established a spiritual energy distribution map within a radius of three thousand miles. He is trying to study some large-scale Taoist methods to directly change the spiritual energy distribution in the air to prevent extreme weather. Theoretically, this project There can be a total of 8 billion yuan, but currently Jijiu Miao has only used 2 billion yuan, and there is still 6 billion yuan in the account."
"If Fellow Daoist can solve the follow-up problems, then the remaining six billion dollars will be yours, Fellow Daoist. Six billion dollars is not a lot, plus you have an interest-free loan of one billion dollars, Fellow Daoist, this is seven One billion dollars!”
The Taiping Taoist thought for a while and then shook his head: "This project is indeed very good, and I can do it, but this project cannot be accomplished in a day. It needs to be done slowly. Even if the results are achieved in a short period of time, they must be tested in practice." , maybe it will be three to five years after success.”
"Now Hanoi County's first batch of purchases is worth 80 billion. It is estimated that in the fall or winter, Hanoi County will start the second batch of purchases. By then it is estimated that it will be tens of billions. If I only have a few billion, It's obviously not enough."
Xiao He thought again: "There is a bounty in the Jun Mansion, which has not been solved from last year to this year."
"The Lord's Mansion has repeatedly raised the price of this bounty, and now it is as high as 50 billion. If you don't want money, you can also grant a large number of permissions, including but not limited to the inheritance of top-quality magic weapons and even the level of innate immortals!"
"Oh, what's the reward? Tell me about it?"
"The name of this project is to create a human being. Of course, it is not really about creating a human being, but about creating a spiritual puppet."
"The Lord once said that Yancheng is in urgent need of a large number of puppet workers."
"Just like the harvester, this thing is currently controlled by the alchemist to work. And if there is a puppet technology that is applied to the harvester, will the harvester be able to work automatically? Can it also automatically identify which ones are its own? Harvest the target, and when the harvest is over, it will automatically turn to harvest another row of wheat, rice, etc.”
"In the past, these all required humans to control. But with puppet technology, a large number of machines will move on their own!"
"If applied to mining, the magic tools used for mining will be automatically identified, automatically analyzed, automatically moved, and automatically mined. At that time, you only need to buy such a mining robot and you will be able to mine automatically. Of course, there will be automatic mining. Automatic smelting, automatic mold casting..."
"This series of technologies, the master calls it automation."
“And on top of automation, it’s intelligence.”
"Automation technology is now about to be completely broken by Taoists, but intelligent related technology is still a difficulty."
"In short, what the Lord wants is low-cost, popularized spiritual technology."
Hearing this, Taiping Taoist poured himself a cup of monkey wine and drank it in one gulp: "Can the so-called intelligence be regarded as the spirit of the array? The spirituality of treasures? The spirituality of spiritual roots?"
Xiao He nodded seriously: "Yes, spirituality!"
"The biggest difference between a magic weapon and a magic weapon is spirituality. A magic weapon is nothing if no one controls it, but a magic weapon has spirituality. In many cases, the owner only needs to say a word, and the magic weapon can automatically start to act."
"The best magic weapon has more spirituality. When it reaches the level of a spiritual treasure, with the accumulation of spirituality, it already has the intelligence of an ordinary person."
"In fact, spirituality is not difficult. What is difficult is low cost, large scale, and popularization."
Taiping Taoist nodded: "That's the truth."
"Many warlocks can refine magic weapons."
"But the spirituality of most magic weapons is derived from the spiritual power of the Qi Refiner, bit by bit."
"The magic power of a Qi Refiner is the product of a mixture of essence, energy and spirit from the time of its birth. Many Taoist priests even possess the magical power of magic and spirit."
"Use magic power to continuously refine heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and then use special techniques to naturally enhance the spirituality inside the magic weapon little by little."
"It can be said that whether a magic weapon is powerful or not depends entirely on how much mana the owner spent on refining it."
"The more mana you spend, the closer the magic weapon becomes to its owner, and the easier it becomes to use it, so that the treasure will automatically cooperate with you as soon as you think about it."
Having said this, Taiping Taoist stretched out his index finger, a ray of magic power was slightly stimulated, and he lightly touched the void, and a talisman appeared in the air.
"The key to the talisman lies in God!"
"I'm good at drawing talismans, and I know a lot about the way of God."
"It's not difficult to create divine talismans, it's not difficult to create spiritual treasures, you can even create a formation spirit or a magic weapon spirit."
"However, it is very difficult to achieve low cost and popularization!"
"Even I have to go through a long period of thinking. Even if the requirements are not high, it may take several years to achieve initial results."
"This project is indeed possible for me, but it takes too much time and energy, and I still can't do it now."
Xiao He expressed his understanding and then said: "There is still one more task..."
After a while, Taiping Taoist shook his head again: "Hey, thank you fellow Taoist for your help."
"I can see that it's really hard to make money."
"I guess I can only hunt the Demon King. The money will come faster."
Hearing this, Xiao He spread his hands in embarrassment: "I have many similar ideas to you, fellow Taoist, so the demon kings who are relatively close to Yancheng have already been captured."
"The only thing left is to go deep into the jungle, but that will greatly increase the risk, and you may not be able to encounter it. Even if you encounter it, without advance intelligence, the opponent may be able to run away, and the efficiency is not very ideal. .”
"Let's do this. I'll ask the Lord to see if there is anything he can do."
Afterwards, Xiao He contacted Jiang Hua in front of Taiping Taoist, and Jiang Hua showed up a moment later.
After hearing all the ins and outs, Jiang Hua looked at Taiping Taoist and said: "What Taoist friends need is not a small amount of money, nor is it a one-time money. Money will be used in many places in the future."
"Moreover, Taiping County is inherently deficient. Even if it is fully developed, there are only four counties. The combined area of these four counties is only 15,000 square kilometers. Excluding hills, rivers, mountains, and forests, the land that can be developed is Just 15 million acres, maybe not even that.”
"Even if all of these lands have a yield of ten shi per mu, the total annual income will be only 15 billion yuan. In fact, this is impossible. It would be great if half of this money could fall into the hands of Taiping Dao. That is 7.5 billion yuan. Even if there are some other industries, it may be between 10 billion and 20 billion yuan, which is the total income of Taiping County."
In fact, this income is already quite high, to the point of being ridiculously high.
The main reason why it is so high is that all the land in Taiping County belongs to Taiping Dao. There are no nobles and no wealthy merchants. From the beginning, all the land belongs to Taiping Dao family.
Like the Ming Dynasty in history, there were still 800 million acres of land. One stone per mu was produced in the north, and four stones per mu in the south where there was sufficient water. On average, the annual grain output would not be less than 1.6 billion tons. With so much grain, at least It is worth 1.6 billion taels of silver. If the value of the Ming Dynasty’s minerals, commerce, handicrafts, etc. is added, no matter how the Ming Dynasty calculates, the total value of various materials produced in a year will not be less than 2 billion taels. But the Ming Dynasty The income of the dynasty is a very sad topic, so it’s okay not to talk about it...
The problems that the Ming Dynasty needed to face were also problems that any feudal dynasty needed to face.
Perhaps the imperial court's annual income is only one percent of the world's total output in that year, and it is very rare to reach one-tenth.
In modern society, the total annual income of modern countries can easily reach 10% of their GDP, and in many countries it can even reach 40%.
Therefore, when it comes to making money and scrapping land, even if the profiteers who were the best at scraping land in ancient times came over, they would still be far behind the average level of modern countries.
Now that Taiping County has just been established, all the land, mountains, minerals, rivers, and forests in the county are owned by Taiping County. The revenue in the past few years must have accounted for a very high proportion of the total output value.
"However, this kind of income cannot last long. Moreover, even if there is really 20 billion per year, it may not be enough to spend."
Hearing this, Taiping Taoist raised his hands towards Jiang Hua seriously: "Please teach me, Mr. Yan!"
It is unbelievable that the annual total income of a modern country accounts for 40% of the total GDP. I even wonder if I am wrong. This is too exciting.
