Chapter 416: Requests From States

[Book title: Chapter 416 of the main text of the Great Immortal Sect of Science and Technology: Requests from various countries Author: Dreamwalker]

The latest chapter of "Science and Technology Daxianzong" dear~ The domain name of this site: the abbreviated homonym of "166 Novels", easy to remember! Good-looking novels are highly recommended: The peak of martial arts, the god of martial arts, the legend of the Dragon King in the world to gain merit. It's just that he doesn't know much about the influence of rail transit. He just thinks it's a new mode of transportation. Therefore, it made him feel a little incomprehensible that several countries around Datang sent envoys here for this matter.

However, this is not to blame for Wu Changsheng's lack of knowledge.

After all, as a cultivator, Wu Changsheng has been in charge of the Yuqing Sect for many years, and his status is not inferior to that of the rulers of other countries, but he has always paid attention to staying away from the world. The so-called specialization in the art industry is like a mountain, so it is naturally impossible for him to have a lot of knowledge about the secular society, especially the things that affect people's livelihood.

As for Ye Zan, Wu Changsheng's understanding of the influence of rail transit was far from comparable to that of Wu Changsheng. Not to mention that social adaptability experiments have been carried out in the small world, just by looking at the development history of the technological world, one can know how huge changes this rail transit will bring to human society. Therefore, it can be said that he had anticipated the sending of envoys from the surrounding countries, and he was not surprised to hear the news.

Today, although only a few main lines have been built in the rail transit of Datang Kingdom, the role of rail transit is already very obvious. As long as you are not a fool, you can see the impact of this rail transit on a country from these main lines.

For rulers, perhaps the most concerned issue is how to make their rule more stable.

Originally, the rulers of all countries had to face such a problem, that is, how to treat the generals guarding the border. You must know that although the countries in the Shenhua domain have not had large-scale wars for many years, they still have to station heavy troops at the border. In other words, among all the generals in various countries, the generals who guard the border are the absolute generals with real power, and they must have military power in their hands.

If this person holds too much power in his hands, it is inevitable that some other ideas will arise. Even if he himself has no ideas, those people under him, or others, will use various methods to make him "have" ideas.

In the long history of the Shenhua Domain, there have been endless incidents of rebellion by generals in border towns. The reasons for raising troops include the corruption of the royal family, the instigation of enemy countries, and the so-called "yellow robes" and so on. Regardless of whether the rebellion succeeds or fails in the end, it will be a great loss to the national power of a country, and it will be a huge disaster to the people at the same time.

Therefore, no matter how loyal the other party is to those generals in the border towns, the heads of all countries will be very vigilant.

The emergence of Thousand Miles Transsion has solved the problem of timely transmission of messages for the rulers of various countries. Before thousands of miles of sound transmission, especially when the country was far away, the generals of those border towns rebelled, and when the king got the news of the rebellion, the opponent often had a certain scale. Then, it would take a few days for the lord to mobilize the army to prepare food and grass, which gave the rebels a chance to further expand their scale.

And with the sound transmission of thousands of miles, if there is any rebellion, the king will get the news very quickly, and immediately start making preparations to counter the rebellion. However, this only saves the time for news transmission. It will still take a lot of time for the army to go to the front to suppress the rebellion after everything is ready here.

Now, the emergence of rail transit undoubtedly fills up the gap in this respect. The timely transmission of news, coupled with the substantial improvement in transportation efficiency, is undoubtedly a perfect match for the rulers of various countries to stabilize their rule.

If there is rail transportation, if there is any rebellion in the border towns, the king will not only get the news in time,

It is also possible to quickly deploy the army to the front line, so that the rebels can be suppressed before they can form a scale.

This point alone, this rail transit, is enough to generate a huge attraction to the rulers of various countries. For those lords, I am afraid that there is nothing in the world that is more important than letting them sit firmly in that seat.

What's more, the role of rail transportation is not limited to this point. Not to mention extreme situations such as rebellion and disasters, just the daily transportation and circulation of goods has a huge effect on the development of a country. Although only a few main lines have been built in the Tang Dynasty, anyone with a bit of foresight in all countries can see the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, and it is gradually speeding up like riding a rail train. Perhaps it won't be long before Datang's national strength grows, and the surrounding countries will be left far behind.

If the construction of this rail transit is simply led by the Tang Dynasty, then at this time, the countries may have already tried their best to sabotage it. After all, a powerful neighboring country, and a neighboring country that is still growing stronger, is something that the countries around Datang absolutely do not want to see.

However, what makes countries helpless is that the leader of this rail transit construction is not the Tang Dynasty, which stands in the same position as them, but the Yuqingzong, who is in full swing in the monastic circle. You know, Yuqingzong sent ten Yuanying patriarchs for the construction of rail transit, which is enough to see how much Yuqingzong attaches importance to this matter. Although they couldn't understand why Yu Qingzong suddenly intervened in worldly affairs and made such a big expense, they also knew that as long as they dared to move the rail transit, it would be against Yu Qingzong.

Although the royal families of various countries are protected by the Dragon Qi, it doesn't mean that if they really tear their faces, Yu Qingzong will have nothing to do with them.

Originally, the countries also pinned their hopes on other sects, hoping that other sects could restrain Yu Qingzong in this matter. But last time, people from the five sects headed by Ziyang Zhenjun came to Yuqingzong for a while, but they didn't make Yuqingzong make any changes. Although the countries don't know how Yu Qingzong and Wu Zong talked, they can guess with their toes that Wu Zong failed to influence Yu Qingzong.

Therefore, out of fear of Yu Qingzong, all countries changed their minds. Since they can't stop the construction of rail transit in the Tang Dynasty, they might as well participate in it themselves. You have rail transit, and I also have rail transit. Wouldn't everyone stand on the same starting line again? What's more, as I said before, although the investment in this rail transit is not small, it will be beneficial to the rule after it is completed, and its effect on improving national power has also been verified by the Tang Dynasty.

For Ye Zan, being able to expand the rail transit to a larger area means that he will gain more merit. Therefore, when he heard Wu Changsheng say that the envoys from various countries had not left yet, he didn't bother to play tricks to catch people's appetites, so he asked Wu Changsheng to send people to invite the envoys from various countries to the side hall of Yuquan Peak.

With regard to the construction of rail transit, it can be said that it is your wish and my wish, so Ye Zan and the envoys from various countries did not have any tense negotiations. Moreover, the conditions proposed by Ye Zan are not as harsh as other countries think. For example, the issue of the ownership of the transportation sector is what the leaders of various countries are most concerned about. All countries think that this issue will be a very difficult negotiation. But no one thought that Ye Zan didn't intend to hold it in his hands at all, and there was no need for them to pretend to be pitiful and talk about difficulties.

Ye Zan's only request was to resettle those personnel who were originally engaged in the transportation industry, and this was actually beneficial to each country itself. In any era, unemployed people are an unstable factor in society. For example, a famous unemployed postman overthrew a dynasty because of unemployment. Although not all unemployed people will become the famous unemployed postman and do such earth-shattering events, the impact on social stability cannot be ignored.

In fact, the common people are very easy to be satisfied, as long as they can fill their stomachs, as long as they can have a way of life, no one will take the risk of beheading to rebel. Therefore, Ye Zan's request is not a request at all for all countries. This is what they should do.

Of course, Ye Zan didn't really want to give selflessly, and the account that should be settled still had to be settled with other countries. For example, in terms of construction materials, countries need to provide them. It is impossible for Ye Zan to dig out all the resources in the small world of Xiangong in order to build rail transit for them. And the envoys from various countries did not have any objection to this. It would be good if Yu Qingzong didn't collect wages from them. You can't just expect Yu Qingzong to post construction materials instead.

The talks between the two sides didn't take too much time to reach an agreement on the construction of this rail transit.

After the talks ended, the envoys from various countries still felt as if they were dreaming until they left Yu Qingzong. They came with the intention of cutting their flesh. They didn't expect to be treated the same as Datang Guoneng, but they didn't expect that the matter would be done without bleeding.

"It seems that we need to study some magic tools for engineering."

After sending off the envoys from various countries, Ye Zan was also in a good mood. After all, this meant that a lot of merit would be recorded. However, the problem also came with it, that is, the efficiency of construction could not keep up. Although Ziyangzong and other five second-rate sects in the surrounding areas have previously promised that when the rail transit expands to their side, they will also send people to participate in the construction, but the ascetics are not professional after all, and the instruments used are not professional either. , so the improvement of construction efficiency is also limited.

For example, to dig a tunnel, the usual way for ascetics is to directly sacrifice the flying sword, cutting and digging holes on the mountain continuously. Even if the flying sword is a magic weapon, even if the sword wielder has profound magic power, it is not an easy task to dig a tunnel. Moreover, such non-standard construction often results in a waste of labor, and it is not uncommon for a tunnel to be opened crookedly.

Therefore, Ye Zan had to consider how to apply those construction machinery in the world of science and technology to this world after finding a way to transform them into magical instruments.

Fortunately, now that Ye Zan has stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm, coupled with the enlightenment under the giant tree, he has a deeper understanding of his own three avenues. Therefore, in the matter of legalizing construction machinery, he no longer has too many difficulties here.

After returning to his residence, Ye Zan saw a little Lolita riding on the back of a white bear in the open space outside his courtyard, with his lower body sunk in the soft fur, and he laughed happily. The two wolf demons were closely following the white bear, stretching out their arms nervously, as if they were afraid that the little loli would fall off the bear's back. On the other side, Xiao Baxia was lying there quietly, with the mandrill demon and the snow ape demon waiting on both sides, pinching Xiao Baxia's legs and feet very dog-leggedly. The octopus monster had six tentacles on its back, holding a big fruit plate in its hand, and kept feeding the fruit in it to Xiao Baxia.

It seems that these little monsters have adapted to their identities! Ye Zan looked amused for a while, and walked over.

"Daddy!" Seeing Ye Zan approaching, the little Lolita immediately shouted happily, jumped up from the back of the white bear, and rushed towards Ye Zan.

Ye Zan opened his arms, held the little loli firmly in his arms, and said, "Linglong, are you okay with them?"

Hearing Ye Zan's words, little Lolita hadn't opened her mouth yet, but the little monsters couldn't help but froze, and they all looked at this side nervously.

"Angang!" Xiaoba yelled twice, as if he was dissatisfied with them stopping.

"Forgive me, young master, I will peel the fruit for you now." The octopus demon said hastily after regaining his senses.

This octopus demon is really suitable for this job. He grabbed a spiritual fruit from the fruit plate, sucked it with the suction cup on the tentacles, and the skin of the spiritual fruit was immediately peeled off. Immediately afterwards, it dipped the peeled spirit fruit into the honeydew in another fruit plate, and then carefully fed it to Xiao Baxia.

"Daddy, Linglong is so happy to play with them! Thank you, Daddy." Little Lolita said with a smile, and pouted at Ye Zan's face.

"Okay, as long as Linglong is happy." Ye Zan kissed the little Lolita on the forehead and said.

Let little loli go to play with a few monsters. After Ye Zan stood by and watched for a while, he turned and went back to his yard, and began to study the magic of construction machinery. For the sake of little Lolita, he also needs to accumulate more merits on the merit tablet as soon as possible, so as to prevent Jiao Sheng from plotting against his daughter in the future.

For Ye Zan now, the transformation of construction machinery into a legal tool is not too difficult. Therefore, in just a few days, Ye Zan manufactured the first machine for tunnel digging. This machine is driven purely by mana, which is no different from using a magic weapon, and while digging the tunnel, it will also spray special paint to strengthen the tunnel.

A few days later, Ye Zan manufactured a professional machine for tamping the foundation, which was more efficient than Cheng Liangqi and others smashing it with the Panlong Gold Seal.

After the experiment, Ye Zan manufactured several of these two machines, and called Ye Xiao back through thousands of miles of sound transmission. 166 novel reading network
