Chapter 556 Dream

The cheers continued for a long time, and Li Xian tried to suppress it several times before it gradually subsided.

Li Xian picked up the microphone: "I wanted to give a speech to everyone a long time ago. This speech is not to promote imperial power, not to promote rule, not to promote my personal coercion and greatness, Li Xian.

In this speech, I just want to discuss with you, what kind of country we need! "

Li Xian was a bit big at the beginning, and everyone didn't react for a while. Aren't the general king's speeches all about the supremacy of imperial power, loyalty, promises, and the like? What, what are you talking about, King Xian?

Li Xian walked forward slowly and came to the edge of the podium with a steady voice: "I have asked myself countless times, what is a country?

From the era of sects to the era of nations, this is the progress of human society. But the age of the state has been going on for tens of thousands of years, but we have never answered this fundamental question—what is a state? "

"Is it the state that enslaves tens of thousands of people by means of centralization?"

"Relying on power, relying on the military, the few rule the many, is this a country?"

"Is this a country that exploits the people of the whole country in order to satisfy the selfish desires of individuals or a few people, to plunder wealth and luck?"

"Emphasis on the so-called loyalty, but disregarding the life and death of the people. The rich get richer and the poor want to be poor. Everyone doesn't pursue it, but only knows how to squander it. Is this a country?"

"Answer me, what kind of country do you want?"

Li Xian's voice was very calm, even soothing, but the words he said were like a storm blowing through everyone's hearts and sweeping away everyone's thoughts.

And those masters who were planning to make trouble, actually started to think at this time.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered at the scene, and everyone was discussing in low voices, so that there was a sound of swishing at the scene, like the sound of waves rolling slightly in the middle of the night. Calm, but contains majestic power, it seems to be carrying the arrival of dawn.

Finally, a voice suddenly sounded, "This is not a country! This is not the country we want!"

"This is not the country we want..."

The voice was messy at first, but soon became uniform and eloquent.

Li Xian waved his hand, and all the voices stopped instantly, as if the pause button was pressed. "Since those are not the countries we need, what kind of country do we need?"

No one can answer this question well, and Li Xian didn't expect everyone to answer it. After a short pause to give everyone a time to think, Li Xian continued: "I keep thinking, and I think we need such a country.

This country is a country that cultivates dreams, and everyone can pursue their own dreams and create their own dreams.

why are we alive We live to pursue our dreams and make our every day full and meaningful.

I want every citizen living in Shang Kingdom to have their own dreams, pursue their own dreams, and even create their own dreams.

In my opinion, this is the country we need. A country that does not rule for the sake of ruling, but a country where dreams can fly! "

The entire Anyang City was silent, only the sound of heartbeat began to echo.

Li Xian continued: "For this goal, Shang Kingdom has made a series of attempts.

We have formulated a constitution, which defines everyone's rights and guarantees everyone's basic interests.

We have enacted criminal laws to punish those who do evil and protect justice.

We have formulated an education law so that every school-age child in the Shang Kingdom can learn the latest knowledge, free them from ignorance, and enable them to establish correct life values ​​and let their dreams fly from an early age.

We promoted capitalism, encouraging everyone to pursue their dreams and create their own wealth.

We have created industry and commerce, and promoted the concept of scientific development, so that we can understand and transform the world in essence. To create a world that belongs to us.

In order to enrich our life, I try to establish entertainment literature and art to make our life more colorful.

This is the present Kingdom of Shang.

In the future Shang Kingdom, I hope that everyone can be happy, pursue their dreams, and know what they are doing and what they should do.

Don't be afraid to fail, the state has you covered if your efforts fail.

Today, I personally announced the latest addition to the law of the Shang Kingdom: Citizens of the Shang Kingdom have the right to be free from want.

As long as you are a legal citizen, if your life is not guaranteed, then the state will provide you with basic guarantees, so that you have the ability to make a comeback!

So, feel free to pursue your dreams. If you fail, if you are penniless, don't despair, the state will provide you with free living security! "

Everyone was shocked at first, and then countless people began to cheer. The sound of long live even dispersed the floating clouds in the sky, and the bright sun shone down, coating the entire Anyang City with a layer of golden yellow.

The cheers lasted for less than half an hour before the common people gradually calmed down. Many people had already started planning investments and taking risks.

"Next, I announce the second new law added by the Kingdom of Shang!" Li Xian said again: "From today, the Kingdom of Shang officially exempts agricultural tax. The scope of exemption from agricultural tax includes all food crops including grains.

For the time being, cotton, silkworm, and aquaculture are not included. "

Cheers, endless cheers came. From today onwards, farmers who accounted for 90% of the Shang Kingdom no longer need to pay taxes. Without all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, etc., the income of the people has at least doubled.

"Next, I want to talk about what science is, why scientific thinking becomes the guiding ideology for the development of the Shang Kingdom, and why the Shang Kingdom develops so fast, and faster and faster!"

Immediately, the scene calmed down. Everyone widened their eyes and pricked up their ears, ready to listen to Li Xian's speech. This is the main content of today's expected speech.

Especially those people from abroad, those spies, can't wait to grow rabbit ears.

"What is science? This is the news that the Brilliant Star Group has kept secret until the founding of the Kingdom of Shang. The reason for making it public is for the development of the Kingdom of Shang. For the development of the country, for the prosperity and strength of the country, we are willing to share it with you These, these are my personal property.

But unfortunately, until today, everyone still does not have a clear concept of what "science" is.

In fact, the concept of science is very simple, which can be summed up in one sentence, that is: design, produce and manufacture objects according to the ultimate goal, and obtain the desired finished product. "

Li Xian said this, but almost everyone was still confused.

Li Xian was not surprised, because it was expected. "In the past, whether it was designing farm tools, producing carriages, making magic weapons, refining elixir, or even practicing itself, we always tried first, then modified, tried again, and modified again, groping for the so-called experience bit by bit.

After such a long period of time, the current fairyland has come into being. But it's a arduous, error-ridden road to development.

This kind of development path has made us take countless detours, wasted countless time, and made countless talented geniuses do nothing all their lives.

The scientific outlook on development is a completely different way of development. The development model of science is completely reversed.

For example, I use Shang Kingdom's best-selling telescope as an example.

If we used to make telescopes, what would we do? Definitely finding materials, experimenting, polishing, and iterating on experience. From having an idea at the very beginning to being able to produce a satisfactory telescope in the end, it may not be possible in less than thirty or fifty years. Do you agree with this statement? "

An old man said quietly: "This old man has spent more than 130 years in order to test the properties of a medicinal material. The old man agrees with what the sage king said."

With the leader, the rest agreed.

Li Xian smiled slightly: "Then, please let our engineers demonstrate how our telescopes are made."

An engineer came, and the person next to him began to manipulate the computer and display the screen.

Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened.

The engineer begins his speech:

"The first step is to determine the purpose of the telescope. If the telescope is used for military purposes, its function is to observe the situation of the enemy hundreds of miles away.

The second step is to determine the usage. The vision of ordinary people can only see a distance of about 10 kilometers at most, and even here, they can only see blurred shadows.

Then we can be sure that the magnification of the telescope must exceed ten times. "

On the big screen at the back, the demonstration pictures began to play, and the combination of pictures and texts made it easy for all audiences to listen.

"The third step is to determine the material. The main structure of the telescope is the lens, so we need to determine the lens first. But there are many materials for making the lens, and there are more than a dozen kinds of optical glass in Shang Kingdom alone. Different Glass has different light transmittance, different refractive index, and of course the cost is also different.

We are sure that what we want to manufacture is an ordinary military telescope, and we don't need too good materials, so we choose relatively cheap materials.

For example, our optical glass numbered No. 19, this glass is not perfect, there is a little green. This kind of glass can see the target as far as 200 kilometers away. But our design application range is 100 kilometers, so this optical glass meets the design requirements.

The fourth step is the curvature calculation. We already know that the curvature of the lens of the telescope and the distance between the lenses affect the magnification. Then after the binary calculation, we get a coordinate system and a curve.

Each point on this curve corresponds to two data, one is the curvature of the lens, and the other is the distance of the lens.

The following is the fifth step, start screening. We determined that the glass quality of this screening is not very good, so the lens cannot be too thick. The lower the curvature and thickness of the lens, the clearer the lens.

But the lower the curvature, the greater the distance between the lenses. Then considering the portability of the telescope, we finally selected this range: 10 cm to 30 cm.

Within this range, the data of each point can produce a lens set.

Then there is the stereotypes. Considering the size of human eyes and the size of palms, we set the diameter of the lens barrel between 2 cm and 3.5 cm, which is the scope of ergonomics. The so-called ergonomics is very simple, it is to make the use of the telescope more convenient.

So far, we have determined the size of the lens, the length of the telescope, etc.

Finally, let's consider the application case. If it needs to be compact, then we choose a length of 10 cm, and the data of the lens is selected from this point. We extract this data and enter it into the computer.

All right, everyone please take a look. "

The glass factory starts to produce glass, produces qualified lens mats, and finally the lenses are polished and put into qualified lens barrels. A simple monocular is successfully produced.

Soon someone took out a telescope from the backstage, which was designed just now!

"Everyone, please see, this is science. One-step production, in actual production, only half an hour of calculation is needed!"

This was the first time Shang Kingdom displayed science and technology in this way, and he sighed for a while. Even the most proud old monster has to admire. This production method is indeed subversive!

The engineer continued: "This is scientific production. With the improvement and proficiency of the process, the accumulation of technology, and the expansion of scale, our development will be faster and faster."

The display screen at the back began to change and began to accelerate, and the scale of the factory expanded from one machine tool to two, four, eight... to countless machines.

"Look, as long as the expansion continues, from a purely theoretical point of view, ten years from now, our daily output of telescopes will be enough for everyone in the race to have a telescope of their own! This is the power of industry!

The power of science lies in the research and exploration of the essence.

The power of industry lies in replicative production.

And the power of commerce lies in providing food and power for science and industry.

The combination of science, industry and commerce can open a door to the future for us.

Therefore, the future development of Shang Kingdom will only get faster and faster, and it will become stronger and stronger. As long as we persist in science, our future is unlimited! "
