In the 6280th year of the Xia calendar,

Penglaizhou had been developed for more than ten years in the blink of an eye. The moss that can absorb nuclear radiation has been everywhere in Penglaizhou. Now, except for the thousands of kilometers around the center of the nuclear explosion, the nuclear radiation values ​​in other places have dropped to a safe range.

Therefore, the past two years have also been a period of explosive immigration. China's latest naval ships can carry 50,000 immigrants at a time. Many low-income people in China have signed up enthusiastically. Basically, those who come to Penglaizhou will have a significant increase in income.

Lin Jiang and Cao Ying learned that Penglaizhou was well built, so they came to take a few days off to see the scenery of Penglaizhou and relax.

"Such a good land has been wasted for decades. It's really a waste of land."

Cao Ying stood beside Lin Jiang, with an endless prairie in front of him. Penglaizhou did not have many large mountains except the Huiyun Mountain Range in the middle. There were several prairie plains. It was an agricultural power before it fell.

"It won't be wasted now. Penglaizhou is positioned as an agricultural area. Apart from some agricultural processing factories, no industry will be set up here."

"Monster breeding industry, right?"

"Yes, there are too many immortal cultivators, and the thirst for resources is endless. China's land will grow things with higher added value, so other places will have to sacrifice."

Lin Jiang said that the power of the entire human race is actually a fierce competition. Many countries have no sense of existence at all. Whether it was before or after, they are all objects of exploitation.

For example, the countries in the western part of Shenzhou are still suffering from monster attacks, and a large number of people die every day. China is obviously capable of helping them solve the problem, but China did not do so. It only helped them fight some high-level monsters. Those huge number of low-level monsters simply ignored them because they wanted to use these monsters to control these small countries.

So it is the same in Penglaizhou. There are at least millions of aborigines still alive in Penglaizhou. They have become refugees in various places. They are also returning to Penglaizhou. They may carry out some independence movements in the future, so this is just an agricultural area. Even if they become independent in the future, they still cannot escape exploitation.

"Speaking of sacrifice, I thought of Zhou Liao. I didn't expect that Zhou Liao would weaken after this battle, and Yingzhou ranked second,"

Cao Ying said. More than ten years ago, in that great war, the Godly Demon King raided from Zhenhai City, and Zhenhai City was destroyed again, and a large number of cities were destroyed.

I won't say much about the death toll. The key is that too many elite cultivators of Zhou Liao died. Six Yuanying stage cultivators of Zhou Liao were directly reimbursed in that battle. Coupled with the destruction of the industrial center, Zhou Liao completely declined, and it has not recovered even now.

In that battle, China's losses were much higher than Zhou Liao, but China recovered in just a few years. The foundations of each other are incomparable.

"Yingzhou is vast and rich in resources. Its territory is larger than that of China. Its population has surged. It has temporarily gained the upper hand by relying on the demographic dividend. This is normal. Li Qing will come to visit me in a few days. I guess he is scared of us,"

Lin Jiang said. China has a high level of industrialization. Industrialization has brought urbanization, and urbanization has a side effect, which is a lower fertility rate.

In the current Huaxia Federation, except for some high-level families, few people are keen on having children, especially the vast middle and lower levels, who no longer like to have children, and having two children is considered a lot.

This has led to a very low population growth rate in Huaxia. The fact that Huaxia can have a good-looking appearance is still the credit of immigrants, but it is different in Yingzhou. The urbanization is not so high, and Li Qing and other Yingzhou high-level people are desperately introducing birth incentive policies to keep the fertility rate in Yingzhou at a very high level.

This has given Yingzhou a full demographic dividend, and with talents, there is everything. Yingzhou has developed very quickly in recent years. Now that Yingzhou has developed in quantity, it is necessary to seek quality.

But at this time, Yingzhou discovered that their development opportunities were still locked by Huaxia, which made them very painful. This time, Lin Jiang publicly came to Penglaizhou for vacation, and Li Qing had already made arrangements to visit.

"Then will you meet Li Qing?"

"No, it's a matter of karma. When the earthworms were rampant, didn't she take the opportunity to blackmail us? Now let's teach her a lesson. If you are interested, you can send her away."

"I'm not interested either, but Li Qing may be the second Hedao of the human race. Her cultivation speed is faster than yours."

"We can't use her."

Lin Jiang said that he knew what Cao Ying meant, which was to use Li Qing to make the journey, but Lin Jiang didn't want to make so much trouble, Li Qing was a little uncontrollable.

"Okay, let's give her a cold shoulder."

Cao Ying nodded, and the topic ended, and they no longer talked about it.

In the following days, Lin Jiang and Cao Ying visited several tourist attractions in Penglaizhou, and also went to the center of the nuclear explosion that year. Seeing the huge pit, Cao Ying was still frightened. If the nuclear explosion happened next to her, she felt that she could not escape.

Li Qing was indeed turned away by Lin Jiang. Lin Jiang just didn't want to see her, which made Li Qing very angry, and she had no choice but to return to Yingzhou.

········

After returning from Penglaizhou, Lin Jiang went to Cao Wang again. In the past ten years, Lin Jiang has visited Cao Wang several times a year to inspect the research and development of the space carrier.

"Ancestor Lin, these are photos sent back by the Explorer 9 spacecraft, at the edge of the solar system, take a look."

Cao Wang saw Lin Jiang and immediately projected a screen from his watch, which contained many photos. These were photos taken by the Explorer 9 spacecraft, at the edge of the solar system.

"It's spectacular, isn't it?"

"It's spectacular. I used to think that cultivators were omnipotent, but now I think they are very insignificant. Maybe it's because my cultivation is too low."

"Then keep practicing. The Hedao, the Crossing Tribulation Period, and the Mahayana Period are all qualitative changes, and they are completely different creatures. Perhaps the Crossing Tribulation Period can be stronger than the current technology."

Lin Jiang said. From the Qi Training Period, the strength of the cultivator doubles with each level. The same is true for the Return to the Void to the Hedao, and the Hedao to the Crossing Tribulation Period. Now they don't have the data of the Crossing Tribulation Period, so there is still a lot of hope.

"Yes, let's not talk about cultivation, let's talk about spacecraft. Explorer 9 is one of our most advanced aircraft. In three months, it will return and bring back a lot of information, especially space development, which is very important for this."

"I know, you want to talk about the plan to develop the universe and planets, right?"

Lin Jiang said. He had talked with Cao Wang many times before. According to Cao Wang, with the current level of technology, even if the world's energy is concentrated together, it is not enough for them to fly out of the Milky Way.

So Cao Wang and his team put forward many ideas, such as developing some barren planets. Although those planets are uninhabited and not suitable for living, they still have many resources.

"Yes, and our project team has proposed many new technical development directions, such as teleportation arrays. In a few years, we will try to build a teleportation array from the Shenzhou continent to the moon. This distance is larger than the maximum distance of the existing teleportation arrays, but reaching this distance is not a problem. If successful, we can work harder in this area.

If this technology matures, perhaps we can get out of the Milky Way and rely on one ultra-long-distance teleportation array after another. Moreover, teleportation array technology is related to black hole theory and space jumps, and may be able to drive the development of this area..."

"You don't want money again, do you?"

"Ahem, ancestor, scientific research cannot be summarized in money, it's too vulgar."

Cao Wang coughed. Scientific research is really a bottomless pit. No matter how much money is thrown at it, it will be used up, and they still feel it is not enough. Lin Jiang is already biased towards them to the extreme, and they still feel that they can get a little more.

"I can't give you any more money. I need to balance the forces of all parties. If you want more funds, you might as well think of ways from within, such as saving. The corruption in the space project is not light. I have received many reports."

"Hey, I can't handle this kind of thing either. There are internal worms everywhere."

"Anyway, you figure it out yourself."

"Ancestor Lin..."

"By the way, the third-generation space carrier will go on a space voyage. I won't compete for the first batch. When the space route is mature, I will go on a long voyage."

Lin Jiang said that although the first and second generation space carriers also have the need for long voyages in their designs, they basically didn't leave far, because they need to protect spacecraft such as space stations, and military use is more important.

So after the third generation space carrier is completed, once it reaches space, it will go on a space voyage like the Explorer series of spacecraft. This is groundbreaking and very dangerous, so Lin Jiang will not rush to be the first, but will go on a long voyage once the route is mature.
