For Jiang Sibai, the nightmare world was just like a 'game experience server'.
Any wild and unconstrained design can be placed here, and it can still exist reasonably in a strange form.
Then I experiment in this 'experience server' for a while, and if I think the data is good, I can try to embody it in reality.
Generally the results are good.
Anyway, now that his power as the Nightmare King has become stronger and he has mastered the art of controlling evil with evil, he has gradually lost his awe in this nightmare world.
Especially when he came into contact with that corner of the void in the nightmare world more times, he gradually began to feel that the nightmare was not much different from the real world.
His worldview changed as a result.
In his eyes, the nightmare world is actually a world to a certain extent, even higher in level than the real world.
Because from the perspective of the void, the level of the world seems to be divided by the concentration of spirituality.
The true spirit river he saw was completely composed of spirituality and was hidden in the depths of the void.
And the Nightmare World can actually see the True Spirit River from a distance, which obviously should be deep in the void.
In comparison, the real world should be on the periphery of the void.
In other words, there should be no distinction between inside and outside, far and near, but only deep and superficial layers.
The nightmare world exists in the deeper layers of the void, while reality exists in the more superficial layers of the void.
Therefore, there is more materiality in the real world, but if the existence of pure material is observed from the perspective of void, it is actually equivalent to nothingness.
Only spirituality, from the perspective of voidness, is 'existence'.
From this perspective, then the real world can exist in the void only because of the existence of many living beings?
Jiang Sibai has been confused by this kind of philosophical thinking recently.
Fortunately, he doesn't have nothing to do. Recently, he has started experimenting with farming in the nightmare world...
I finally got back to my old job.
Mainly because he witnessed the more fundamental principles of plant growth in the valley, which allowed him to restore this process in his nightmare.
This allows him to try to continually breed new species through nightmare situations.
Of course, the first step was to cultivate the high-yielding crops he was familiar with.
Jiang Sibai felt very confident.
Because he has discovered that anything that can be clearly observed in every detail in the nightmare can definitely be replicated in reality.
Continuous trials and verifications in reality will help Nightmare perfect these details.
From a certain perspective, Nightmare is really a 'world game test server'.
Jiang Sibai's small experiment was to find a breeding method to increase wheat yield in his nightmare.
In reality, he cultivated an acre of wheat field on the spot, and then cultivated and transformed the wheat seedlings in this acre of wheat in the same way as in the nightmare.
This is the deep ability of "Eternal Spring", and it is also one of the real abilities of Shennong Valley: to accelerate the cultivation of wild plants and turn them into crops that can be tamed by humans!
And more importantly, Jiang Sibai now has a deeper and more essential understanding of the Five Elements.
His targeted training can be completed quickly in one day.
Even when the energy of the surrounding earth veins is mobilized, the soil fertility of that acre of land will not be damaged and will be replenished extremely quickly.
And the yield of the wheat cultivated by him using "Eternal Everlasting Chapter" has reached an astonishing six stones per mu, which is three times the usual yield of only two stones per mu in this era!
Jiang Sibai cultivated this wheat, and then without hesitation handed it over to his nephews to promote it in the fiefdom.
Of course, if ordinary farmers in the fiefdom want to achieve such output, they must cultivate intensively. The original slash-and-burn farming will no longer work.
Fortunately, the teachers and nephews all know how to take good care of the fields. I believe that with the words and deeds of the teachers and nephews, the farmers in his territory will soon learn how to farm.
This is Jiang Sibai's way of sharing the sect's worries.
Expanding food output on the territory that you can control will naturally allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and have more children.
After decades of increasing the population base, the number of qualified disciples Luo Yun can harvest will naturally increase.
And people who grow up in a relatively happy environment are generally more outstanding in character and have more spiritual pursuits.
Jiang Sibai understood that pursuing spirituality without materiality would be a hooligan, so he was determined to provide sufficient materials for the people in his fiefdom.
No, it is to enable the people to create enough materials for themselves.
As soon as he had this idea, he immediately summoned his 'Xilaizai', the administrative officer sent by King Ji to manage the territory for him.
Jiang Sibai had no prejudice against this chief official and just issued his decrees very strictly.
Only 30% of the land tax is charged for full collars. 10% of the tax revenue is handed over to the Jiguo treasury, 10% of the tax revenue is used to implement the internal affairs decree of Xilai Territory, and 10% of the tax revenue is controlled by Jiang Sibai himself.
Full collar encourages fertility. Everyone in the family, whether male or female, is exempted from one acre of land tax until the first man marries the first woman. When a man becomes a crown prince at the age of sixteen, he will no longer be exempted from the field tax but will receive three acres of cultivated land as a gift; a woman can marry at the age of fifteen, and her family will be exempted from the two acres of land tax after she marries.
Jiang Sibai originally wanted to come to Daxing Education or something, but he just thought about it. Now he just needs more people, which is better than anything else.
Nowadays, there are fewer people and more land, and there are too few people!
As for the rest, he dispersed the teachers and nephews to protect the safety of this place.
Let’s just rest and recuperate in this territory for the time being.
Jiang Sibai determined the direction of Laicheng's governance very simply and crudely, and then ignored everything.
'Predecessor experience', let the people grow wildly without interfering with them, is the best way to restore people's livelihood.
As for popularizing spiritual practice, Jiang Sibai will not do this for the time being.
Because if you want to practice cultivation, you must still maintain self-restraint in the early stage, that is, you must guard your body like jade.
If everyone cultivates immortality, how can this population reproduce?
but……
Jiang Sibai then thought again, cultivating immortality is not possible, but practicing martial arts is.
It just so happens that he has no idea of building his own army, so why not encourage knights and let his territory become a 'jianghu'.
The more Jiang Sibai thought about it, the more interesting it was. In fact, to put it bluntly, he just didn't bother to care about anything after issuing those two decrees.
It only took half a day to issue the decree and explain it to his Silaizai, and then he happily ran out of the city to get busy.
There were large tracts of wasteland outside the city, which made him quite heartbroken.
Just plant a peach grove in the north.
When the Shili peach blossoms are in full bloom, it will definitely become a grand scene.
But just as he was cultivating his own territory and constantly improving his swordsmanship and understanding in nightmares, an inexplicable piece of news made him quite uncomfortable.
This is news from Shuzhenko, who has become a public enemy of the world for no reason!
