They didn't discuss much during the hotpot meal.
Ren Baqian proposed universal education, but other than the empress, no one else understood the importance of universal education.
Their thinking was still at the stage of one-man workshops. Ren Baqian and the students from the academy could handle high-end things, and they could even recruit more disciples.
Not only did they understand, but many people also wouldn't let their children learn things that weren't of much use.
For the common people, steam engines, internal combustion engines, gunpowder propulsion, and nuclear fission were too far away.
They were so far away that they didn't even want to know what they were.
Practicing martial arts was the right way.
Not to mention that martial arts experts could enter the imperial court, they could also go hunting, which would at least ensure their own survival.
It wasn't a problem for individuals to think this way.
However, at the national level, if everyone thought this way, then there would be a big problem.
According to the normal development of society … This period couldn't be estimated. It was unknown how many years had passed in this world for the productivity of society to reach this level. At most, it was at the level of the Song Dynasty, and it wasn't even as prosperous.
Ren Baqian even wanted to use educational incentives to reward people with money or food for every completed year of courses. This way, the people who could only see what was in front of them would have a little interest in learning.
It wasn't derogatory to only see what was in front of them, but rather the limitations of this era. Under the circumstances where ordinary people couldn't even guarantee their survival, only what was in front of them was the most important.
Ren Baqian wanted to use incentives to increase people's interest in learning, but the biggest problem was that he didn't have enough money.
Although they had conquered the entire Yun Nation, they didn't plunder wantonly in order to rule the region.
Although they had plundered a lot of money, it only filled the national treasury, which had always been tearfully invested. Compared to Dayao's previous national treasury income, there were too many things to do. The financial and material resources consumed by road construction alone weren't small, which couldn't support Ren Baqian's ideas at all.
Therefore, the primary goal was to make money.
The prerequisite for making money was to have a stable Yun Nation.
In the end, it came back to the point that the Yun Nation had to be completely stabilized before vigorously developing the economy, education, and productivity to achieve a stage of overall prosperity before the next step could be carried out.
This time, it was different from the past. This time, the six ministers and the two elders understood the significance and future direction of the Yun Nation, so there wouldn't be any obstacles in the implementation of various matters.
"Finally, there's the matter I mentioned before, experts! In a situation where technology hasn't reached the stage where it can crush an individual in all aspects, top-notch experts are indispensable. Their role is undoubtedly huge. "Ren Baqian brought up the past again.
Qin Chuan was the first to pat his chest and say, "It's enough that we have the sons of the aboriginals." "Once we've broken through the Sixty Thousand Mountains, we'll think of a way to find a deserted place and send experts there to train. Since our ancestors could do it, we can definitely do it too! "
The others also nodded their heads, obviously agreeing with this statement.
"I can't deny that the ancient race is very powerful. But could the aboriginals defeat all the other races by themselves? With a population of more than ten million, and in a situation where they were far behind, they were able to produce a high-end force that was enough to fight against the Myriad Races? If the Myriad Races were so easy to deal with, the Human Race wouldn't have been forced to come here in the first place. Do you have the confidence that you can reach the level of the person who can make a big fireball in the illusion? Except for Her Majesty! "Ren Baqian said as he patted the back of the empress's hand.
"Your Majesty's talent is unquestionable. Even in this land of exile, Your Majesty can break through at any time. Given Your Majesty's age, it wouldn't be inappropriate to say that Your Majesty is the most talented person in thousands of years. However, is it enough for you to fight alone? To face the Myriad Races that have lived for an unknown period of time and have a complete inheritance? Or do you want to see Her Majesty risk her life by herself? "
"Zhao Prince Consort, tell me what you think." Shi Qing smiled as he had already guessed what Ren Baqian was going to say.
"Although the ordinary humans aren't very strong, there will still be outstanding people among them. Furthermore, their base number is higher, and the number of people with high awareness is also not small. I remember that only Her Majesty and the great general are among the top ten experts, right? "
"That's because there are many aboriginal experts in the mountains, and no one knows about them," Qin Chuan immediately retorted.
"Of course, this is one of the reasons, but how many of those experts are there? Although the Sixty Thousand Mountains are dangerous, it's also a treasure trove. Are there more aboriginal experts in the mountains than in the world? "
"As long as the aboriginals enter the Cardinal Heaven level, they won't be weaker than ordinary Spirit Wheel experts and can even fight one against two!" Qin Chuan seemed to feel that Ren Baqian was underestimating the aboriginals and was rather angry.
"What about Li Yuanzhu? Apart from Her Majesty, who else can compete with her? "
"What about the ball-kicking monster?"
"There's also the second most powerful expert in the world who has been missing for a long time!"
"You want to subdue those experts?" The empress frowned slightly. She didn't know about the others, but she had seen Li Yuanzhu before and had a deep impression of her.
"It's not impossible. In addition to those well-known experts, there are also those young experts who have emerged. They aren't weak, and if given the opportunity, they may be able to grow to a very high level. There are even some who are talented but have been overlooked. Even if they can't become experts, they can still become warriors, "Ren Baqian said faintly.
"Don't forget that if we fail to return to that land, we may not have the chance to start again. Back then, they were forced to suffer heavy losses, and the human race still had experts in charge, so they banished us here.
Now, they have long since recuperated, and the strength of the human race is getting weaker.
If we go back, they may not just banish us back here.
Therefore, this concerns all the aboriginals and the entire human race.
As long as we set foot on that path, there is no room for retreat.
Therefore, we need every bit of strength we have.
The aboriginals are part of the human race. I am, and so are they. "
Even though Ren Baqian's speech couldn't be considered impassioned, it was resolute and decisive, and everyone began to ponder over it.
"Are you going to leak the information about the Wan Tribe?" the empress asked.
Ren Baqian shook his head and replied, "Not for the time being and not now. However, we can leak it to a few people, such as the ball-kicking monster and Li Yuanzhu. Putting aside the ball-kicking monster (Li Fu had completely become a ball-kicking monster), the others might also have doubts. After all, there were some martial arts techniques passed down from ancient times, but there were almost no other records of them.
If we can get the support of these top experts, the chances of subduing other experts will be much higher.
Besides, we can also use some other methods, such as holding a martial arts competition to select young experts and seedlings from all of Dayao, including the Jing Tribe and the Yun Nation.
We need to carry out two things at the same time. On the one hand, we need to increase productivity and let more people leave the most basic production activities to become the cornerstone of the technological explosion. This is culture.
On the other hand, we need to select those talented experts and seedlings to cultivate high-end combat power. This is culture. "
"What other ideas do you have?" The empress looked at the others.
"I'm afraid that some of them have ulterior motives," Shi Qing said. There were so many experts, and many of them had strange methods, both good and evil. Not to mention whether or not they could be subdued, he was afraid that some of them might have ulterior motives, which would cause considerable trouble.
It might even cause considerable damage!
"Among those experts, some of them are relatively neutral and will naturally be the primary target. We can contact those who are uncertain about their good or evil behavior. As for those who are too evil, we can kill them directly. "
"What about Great Xia and the Chen Nation?" Hong Wu suddenly asked.
In fact, these two countries were very important. Not only did they have vast land, various minerals, but they also had a large population base.
However, it was obviously unwise to have any ideas about these two countries before they absorbed the Yun Nation.
Besides, there were other ways to obtain the minerals and population of these two countries besides occupying them.
For example, economic plunder and talent absorption.
