Chapter 1249 1250: Royal Society of Science and Technology
"What other big moves will the Zanskart Empire have?"
"In order to transport acidified materials, the Zanskart Empire is building a large number of roads, and has completed the connection of roads in various regions..."
Aslan was startled, but he didn't show it. He just continued to ask in a deep voice: "What is the specific operation method of the factory?"
After Linda answered, he continued to ask a series of questions.
"How many literate people will choose to go to work in factories? How many merchants in the Zanskart Empire have participated in the construction of those factories in the past two years?"
"How many nobles are involved in the construction of factories? Is Tomathiu encouraging them to do business after the transformation of the nobles? How are the roads of the Zanskart Empire built? What are the specifications?"
"What is the average yield of one mu of land now? How many people and farmland does the Zanskart Empire have?"
Aslan asked one after another, and Linda tried hard to answer, with fine beads of sweat already oozing from her forehead.
She finally understood what Sharon used to say about reporting to Aslan was torture.
It has been several years since Linda joined the Melox Empire, and she has been doing her best to supplement her studies, specializing in art. As the person in charge of intelligence, she also looked down on the jobs of the nobles, so it was impossible for her to know much about agriculture.
I don't know the specific meaning behind these questions, but Linda can still vaguely realize the hidden connection between these questions.
Linda rubbed her temples, and only then did she understand why Sharon said that after a few reports with Aslan, she knew that she still had a lot to learn.
It is the limit for Linda to answer one-third of the questions. Without definite information, she dare not speak out. This is the bottom line of an intelligence officer.
Aslan's face had unknowingly become extremely gloomy.
Although Linda didn't know Aslan's real thoughts, she could feel that Aslan's complexion was not good. After answering all the questions that could be answered, Linda closed her mouth and waited for new orders.
Aslan didn't pay attention to Linda's reaction, and now he was preoccupied with calculating the development process of the Zanskart Empire.
From the very beginning, he knew that the Zanskart Empire was a more developed country than the other three countries, and he also knew that Emperor Thomasius was implementing a series of effective reforms and new policies. With the increase in productivity, the society of the Zanskart Empire must There will be a series of earth-shaking changes.
But the development of the Zanskart Empire still exceeded his expectations.
If there is no miscalculation, it should be no different from Maxim's Empire, and may even exceed it.
The Zanskart Empire has been at peace for a long time, they don't have to worry about war, they just need to concentrate on climbing the technology tree. In this regard, the Merox Empire and the Maxim Empire are not as good as it.
The industrial level of the Zanskat Empire is the sum of the other three countries, and has progressed from Industry 1.0 to Industry 2.0.
The mass production of products driven by magic on the basis of division of labor can be called "Industry 2.0". This industrial revolution created a new mode of mass production of products through the successful separation of parts production and product assembly.
The Zanscart Empire also began to develop the chemical industry on a large scale, represented by acidified agricultural fertilizers. The acidified agricultural fertilizers successfully increased the grain production of the Zaanscart Empire and released a large number of agricultural population.
The development of the chemical industry is related to whether it can be advanced to Industry 3.0. Many high-end weapons and equipment, at this time, not only have technical requirements, but also material technology and so on.
For example, the existing tank guns, the difficulty of the production technology of this gun is still easy to overcome, the key is the material of the tank gun barrel, which cannot be produced with ordinary steel.
At this point, the Zanskart Empire has surpassed the Maxim Empire, and the only thing that is lacking is the precipitation of time.
The professional army of Emperor Thomas Xiu has gradually taken shape. Sufficient food supply can allow it to maintain a larger army size, and these professional soldiers will receive more adequate training. Combat experience is their weakness, but their combat effectiveness must not be underestimated.
With the liberation of the labor force, the nascent factories will have sufficient workers, and the process of building roads in the Zanskart Empire will also have sufficient labor force.
Aslan took a deep breath.
None of these things happened recently, but started a few years ago, but due to the lag of information dissemination, the Outer Continent knew nothing about it.
The Outer Continent is still complacent about the fact that it has just completed the industrial revolution. The Zanskart Empire has entered the era of Industry 2.0. Although it is only a beginner, it is far beyond the United Magic Empire and the Eastern Gods.
In the near future, the Maxim Empire should also be able to step into Industry 2.0 with the help of coal crystals, a new energy source, but it is still too slow.
Seeing that Aslan hadn't spoken for a long time, Linda finally couldn't help breaking the silence: "Your Majesty, do you need me to collect the population changes of the Zanscart Empire in recent years?"
Only then did Aslan wake up from his thoughts. He glanced at Linda, and the many chaotic thoughts in his heart were quickly sorted out and gradually became clear.
The development of the Zanskart Empire is an established fact, and for such a huge empire, the pace of development that has already begun is difficult to be disturbed and stagnated by external forces, let alone the current situation.
Nor did the Empire have any chance to hinder the development of the Zanskart Empire.
Unless the Zanskart Empire turned against the other three countries.
"Don't worry about anything else, you take the technical information I gave you to respond to Thomas Xiu's recruitment."
Tomashiu issued a talent-seeking order, as long as he has a skill and understands various mechanical technologies, he can join the Royal Science and Technology Association.
This Royal Society for Science and Technology is somewhat similar to the previous institution of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Aslan looked at Linda in front of him, and said very seriously: "Remember, don't take out the things right away, first see where their research is, see what they have on hand, and then throw them away little by little. Publish the results of your research."
"When stealing their technology, you must be careful. If you are not sure, don't do it lightly. Your priority now is to gain a firm foothold in the Royal Science and Technology Association of the Zanskart Empire as soon as possible."
Linda bowed her head deeply: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely not let you down!"
"No, you don't have to work too hard, as long as you do what you can, I just need you to inform me of the most cutting-edge technological development of the Zanskart Empire. I don't want you to work hard, and even contact with agents should be avoided as much as possible. , so as not to leave traces."
After Aslan finished speaking, he picked up Linda and placed her in front of the desk.
"You are special to me now."
Then the desk shook violently.
