"It should be soon... During this period, a lot of literate people have flowed into the Governor's District. Let them work as teachers or technicians. The literacy rate will soon rise."
While waiting for the literacy rate to improve, Jiang Sui took another look at the current diplomatic situation in the Governor's Mansion.
Since the end of the military operation in the Eastern Ocean Islands, the reputation of the Eastern Ocean Trading Group has plummeted. It has been condemned and pressured by various forces and demanded compensation.
With so many unsolved cases of missing people in each region, it is naturally impossible for them all to be caught on the islands. There must be other reasons, such as homicide or accidents.
It is extremely difficult to investigate such an unsolved case.
Now all we need to do is push all the problems to the Dongyang Trading Group and insist that all the missing cases are their fault.
Regardless of whether you get compensation or not, the case can be closed.
Dongdayang Trading Group is under heavy external pressure, and it is also difficult internally.
They are alone overseas in their own country, and they cannot calm down at all during this period - there are also missing persons cases in their local area, and the people are even more distrustful of law enforcement.
The mastermind of this matter was their senior officials. Could it be that the local law enforcement officials had been corrupted long ago?
If you investigate yourself, what results can you get?
The high-level people secretly believe in the Immortal Life Sect, but that does not mean that the people at the bottom must also follow the belief.
On the contrary, after this incident, there have been several violent attacks on the Church of the Immaculate Sect on this small island.
In order to suppress internal turmoil, the Eastern Ocean Trading Group did not even have the energy to launch a retaliatory attack on the governor's waterway in a short period of time.
Of course, they will inevitably blame the "pirates".
However, during this month, the energy transmission channel between the Eastern Ocean Islands and the Governor's Territory mainland was unobstructed, and not a single "pirate" was encountered.
The escort fleet and frigates that Jiang Sui arranged for this month were in vain.
"If they delay it for a while longer, the threat they will pose to me will become smaller and smaller in the future." Jiang Sui was not disappointed with the failure of his escort arrangement. On the contrary, he breathed a sigh of relief, "After such a month of delay, The warships from the Aluminum Association are about to be delivered, and with the help of air power, the escort mission will be much easier."
It is naturally impossible for the Aluminum Association to sell the most advanced battleships or capital ships to the Governor's Palace, but as an escort fleet, these second-line battleships are enough.
Even though the Dongyang Trading Group's maritime power is far stronger than that of the Governor's Mansion, their industrial strength is basically being crushed by the combination of the Governor's Mansion and the Aluminum Association, and their war potential is not strong.
Thanks to the geographical location of an isolated island in the sea, it will naturally be subject to this.
The area of their island is less than one-twentieth of the Governor's District, and the population is much smaller. It will probably take three or four years to build a main battleship.
As long as the Governor's Mansion is ruthless, tilts the economy completely toward wartime, and adds various buffs to the panel, the time to build a capital ship can be reduced to less than 6 months.
"But... I don't need to fight with them at this stage." Jiang Sui shook his head and looked at the literacy rate panel again, "As long as the technological level is overwhelming, winning will be easy."
After he finished speaking, the panel that had been stuck at 19% for several days suddenly moved.
[Current regional literacy rate: 20%]
[The literacy rate has reached the standard and the scientific research interface has been unlocked (if the literacy rate is lower than 20% again, the scientific research option will not be closed, but it will greatly extend the scientific research time. At the same time, if the literacy rate increases, the scientific research time can also be shortened) 】
[Note: The "scientific research speed" in this research interface consists of two parts: "research and development speed" and "popularization speed". The completion of scientific research means that the technology has been popularized]
[Laboratories can speed up research and development, literacy rates can speed up popularization, and both can increase the speed of scientific research]
[In order to facilitate data management, scientific research speed will be simplified to scientific research point output; scientific research difficulty will be simplified to scientific research point demand]
[Current monthly scientific research points: +30 (you can issue a decree: scientific research subsidies to increase the output of scientific research points by 10%)]
[Research options: physics, society, engineering (the three can be studied in parallel)]
Jiang Sui glanced at the panel and roughly understood it - the function of the laboratory should be to increase the output of scientific research sites.
Parallel research means that different types of technologies can be researched at the same time, and the research speed is 30, without squeezing resources from each other...
The laboratory has not yet been repaired, and many projects that are in high demand for scientific research sites are too time-consuming to research.
Jiang Sui thought for a while, selected three relatively low-cost technologies, and clicked on research.
[Physics: Information integration (entering the information age, all expert population output +5%), required research points: 720, research time 24 months]
[Society: Efficient education (increase literacy rate, speed up the formation of national ideological trends by 10%, difficulty of your ideological invasion -20%, difficulty of other forces' ideological invasion +20%), required research points: 360, research time 12 months]
[Project: Space Launch Base (you can launch artificial satellites and ballistic missiles, the intelligence value of all forces is +30, the influence is +20, and the subsequent interstellar era technology tree is unlocked at the same time), the required research points are 1080, and the research time is 36 months]
【Notice! Since the above-mentioned technologies have been mastered by your “sovereign country”, the Human Empire, you can purchase scientific research subsidies from your overlord country to reduce research and development time by 80%]
Jiang Sui knew that the development of science and technology cannot be rushed. It is normal for some technologies to be studied for several years. But when he looked at the last item displayed on the data panel, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed!
How can technology controlled by the overlord country be researched by affiliated forces so much time for research and development?
This is simply not a surprise!
If you think about it carefully, it actually makes sense.
The human empire is just a comprehensive name for a bunch of forces. It not only has the parliament as the ruler, but also has various enterprises, institutions and second-hand dealers...
As long as you spend some money, it is normal to ask them to buy some technology, especially this backward unclassified technology.
The only problem is that it is difficult to find relevant channels in an enclave like the Tianhai Star District that is desolate and far away from the mainland of the empire.
With the data panel, an efficient administrative manager, you don’t have to worry about these intermediate things at all. As long as it is operable, you can directly implement it in the most efficient way!
"Then I must buy it. The three-year research and development time will be directly shortened to 7 months for me. During this period, I can build more laboratories and issue laws on scientific research subsidies. The research and development time can be shortened even more!"
Sitting in the mine, Jiang Sui, who was rich and wealthy, didn't even think about it and directly chose to buy it.
[Calculating the cost of technology purchase... It is detected that the current regional legal currency anchor is ore...]
[The purchase cost of this round of scientific research is 120 ores (current ore reserves are 162). Do you want to buy it? 】
Jiang Sui was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "How much?!"
