The big man has a living father

Chapter 260 (Long Chapter) Liu Che's Determination

Just as Huo Hai made up his mind to build the Ancheng Line railway, the few people in Chengdu who knew of his existence arrived.

Le Lu, the inventor of the internal combustion engine and a participant in the development of the first fire-powered tricycle, went on a nationwide tour with a convoy nearly four years ago.

This motor vehicle fleet was so dazzling that it became famous across the country.

However, this convoy does not live up to its name, because people from every place want to see Huo Hai.

The answers we got were all that Huo Hai traveled alone, incognito.

No one dared to act rashly and entertained the convoy well.

A year ago, Le Luqi led a convoy to travel through major states and counties across the country.

Took the car to Chengdu.

In Chengdu, Le Lushao showed all his technological advances to Huo Hai.

A brand new, true four-wheeled internal combustion engine car has finally taken shape.

Huo Hai agreed and the production of the new car began.

However, Le Lu was too exhausted from the three-year test drive and didn't want to continue working.

Huo Hai allowed Le Luqi to retain his position and benefits in the research institute, as well as his benefits at the brand new car factory, and allowed him to take paid leave.

Leluwo rested for more than a year.

And his choice was to stay in Chengdu and not go anywhere else.

In fact, Le Lusao was not resting, but the kind of research that involved a large number of people gathering together to discuss ideas was not suitable for him.

With so many people offering suggestions, the technology grew very quickly from 1 to .

However, it is not conducive to a breakthrough from 0 to 1.

Therefore, after Le Luqi led the team to apply the technology accumulated over the past three years to the car and produced a mature internal combustion engine car, he chose to take a break. In fact, he concentrated on researching a new internal combustion engine on his own.

This time, Lelu's goal is to add cylinders to the internal combustion engine.

Because in the past three years, the team has not only accumulated technology related to the car, but also accumulated technology related to the engine.

Lelu wants to realize the technology.

Huo Hai is not so supportive of this.

You know, although Lelu initially produced a fire tricycle, in fact, the quality of the chassis was that of the World War I period, and so was the engine.

You should know that when the internal combustion engine was invented during the Second Industrial Revolution in the previous life, the horsepower was between 0.5 horsepower and 2 horsepower.

It is driven by a small frame made of welded iron, and the chassis is about the same weight as a three-wheeled vehicle.

The Lelu team got better metal from the beginning and built an engine with more than ten times the power.

It is based on a metal chassis structure that was originally powered by horses but has evolved over many years.

This combination makes these cars almost at the level of 1920 when they were manufactured.

How much room for development and breakthrough is left in the short term?
almost none.

Huo Hai believes that based on experience, it will take at least ten years of accumulation of experience before the next generation of engines can be launched.

It’s like Pontiac in the past, which launched four-cylinder and six-cylinder engines in succession during World War I.

But it was not until 20 years later that it was fully recognized by the market.

At the same time, Cadillac started to develop V12 and V16.

At the beginning of World War II, the 180 horsepower engine was produced.

You know, in the 21st century, some manufacturers produce cars with only 50 horsepower.

Huo Hai initially thought that the Han Dynasty should also accumulate technology, then be limited by power, and then be driven by the market to research multi-cylinder engines, and finally start to fly bricks vigorously.

Such a process.

But in the final analysis, the Han Dynasty and the United States are still different.

In the previous industrial revolution, Britain, France and Germany were similar in theory, but in actual technological application, they each took their own path. Then the United States came from behind, and after World War II, they began to divide the pie under the American system.

Such a development process.

However, the Han people have both of their characteristics.

In other words, the Han Dynasty did not form its own industrial characteristics due to numerous restrictions, but instead did whatever it had.

If the Huo Hai team's fire tricycle is regarded as the first generation of experimental vehicles.

Changan has already started launching four-wheeled high-front classic cars for sale as practical commodities.

The final solution adopted by the engine there is to increase the fuel injection volume, use fuel consumption to enhance power, increase the cylinder size, and strive to make the car run 100 to 200 kilometers on a tank of fuel, but within this range, the power is strong and can do anything.

At the same time, Lelu's V2 engine was successful.

The success of the V2 engine meant that motorcycles would soon be realized and motorized infantry would be just around the corner.

This also means that both the refueling and tank filling routes are available in Dahan at the same time.

v2? More efficient? Does that mean everyone can have a fuel-efficient car?

No, this way... the horsepower is higher!

Huo Hai watched the start-up of Lelusao V2. It was the first time he saw this thing.

Huo Hai has seen one-cylinder, three-cylinder and four-cylinder engines, but he has never seen this V2 engine.

Le Lu looked expectant: "Master Huo, you are looking in this direction, right?!"

For Le Lusao, whenever he encountered a difficult problem in his research, he would ask Huo Hai and he would always get the answer.

Le Lushao believes that if Lord Huo did not want to be an official, he would definitely be the greatest scientist in history.

It’s a pity that the court held Lord Huo back.

What he didn't know was that he had reached the limit of Huo Hai's knowledge.

Yes, there are tons of videos of internal combustion engines on the internet, from the original ones to V12s.

The problem is that Huo Hai's level is only enough to remember the original internal combustion engine, but for other videos, he can only say "Wow, awesome!"

I can't remember it after watching it, let alone understand it.

So, in response to Le Lu's expectations, Huo Hai simply nodded: "From the perspective of center of gravity, V2 is suitable for motorcycles."

"The research institute also studied motorcycle models, but the power was too weak and it was too easy to fall over."

"And now V2 can solve this problem. This is a huge benefit to the empire. From now on, the empire's army will no longer need to find a large amount of water for horses when galloping across the deserts of Central Asia."

When Le Lu heard Huo Hai talking about motorcycles, his eyes lit up: "Yes! The center of gravity of V2 is symmetrical, which is perfect for motorcycles!"

Huo Hai: "You have gone too far on this road. Even I don't understand anything else. I can only make a few predictions."

"Based on the potential exterior layout, the engines that may exist next are three-cylinder, four-cylinder, six-cylinder, eight-cylinder, and twelve-cylinder."

"The advantage of a three-cylinder engine is that it can provide the vehicle with the fastest possible power and speed, and it is more fuel-efficient than a four-cylinder engine. At that time, it will only take about ten seconds for the car to accelerate to an ultra-fast speed of 100 kilometers per hour."

"But the three-cylinder engine is destined to shake violently."

"Car manufacturers will love this fuel-efficient, low-emission engine, but the public will hate it."

"Next up is the four-cylinder engine, which will be the main engine for private cars in the future. It is smooth and powerful."

Le Lusao didn't have time to think about why the three-cylinder engine was shaking and why the four-cylinder engine was surging, but he had time to ask: "What about the five-cylinder engine?"

"Could it be that even the odd numbers are shaking so badly!?"

Huo Hai shook his head and said: "The five-cylinder engine should be between the four-cylinder and the six-cylinder engine. The problem is that the improvement of the five-cylinder engine over the four-cylinder engine is too small. If the four-cylinder engine is optimized with technology and materials, it can be comparable to the five-cylinder engine. If we don't care about the material cost and directly manufacture a six-cylinder engine, it will naturally be better than the five-cylinder engine. Then where is the room for the five-cylinder engine to survive?"

Therefore, if the four-cylinder engine is destined to succeed, then the five-cylinder engine will not succeed, and the one that will succeed must be the six-cylinder engine.

The same goes for seven-cylinder and eight-cylinder engines. By that time, no one will even bother to study the seven-cylinder engine.

Why, is it that due to a design flaw, there is only room for seven cylinders in the engine compartment? That is definitely not because there is room for a seven-cylinder engine, but the engine layout designer should be dragged out and shot.

Le Luqi wrote it down: "Sir, you have thought a lot and have a direction for future development."

Huo Hai shook his head and said, "Le Lu, there are two paths before you now. One is to develop your own car brand with your existing technology. In the future, you will definitely be one of the richest people in the entire Han Dynasty."

“It’s just that this process may take decades. But the brand you create will be popular in this land forever.”

"Another way is to license your technology to other companies and let them develop cars. And you, with your rich knowledge in the field of internal combustion engines, will study internal combustion trains."

Because the Chenghan Railway and Anhan Railway from Chengdu to Chang'an, and the connected Ancheng Line have already been put on the plan, Huo Hai told Le Lusao about this.

Huo Hai saw that Le Lu wanted to speak, so he said, "Don't say anything first. I will analyze this with you."

"If you don't want to do this job, the people who can do this job will be low-level engineers who don't make much money in the automotive field, and future mechanics who have completed their studies but have little experience."

"They started research this year, and it may take ten years before the first diesel train rolls off the production line. Because of the slow progress, lack of investment, and inability to convince more capital, it may take thirty years before it can really run, and fifty years before it can be put into large-scale production and appear on a large scale to replace the current steam trains."

"If you were the leader, it might only take one to three years to produce the first internal combustion engine train. Given your position in the field of internal combustion engine vehicles, investments would surely pour in, and you would be able to start mass production within five years, and it would only take less than ten years for it to become popular."

Huo Hai's description has already made Le Lu's heart moved.

Huo Hai raised his finger to signal Le Lu to stop talking, and then continued: "And if you continue to delve deeper into the automotive field, as the inventor of the internal combustion engine and the inventor of the first car, you are fully capable of creating a car brand."

“This car brand will have the title of the inventor of the car, and this title will last for 200 years.”

"In a few decades, you will be one of the richest men in the Han Dynasty, and you will be able to leave a company worth hundreds of billions to your son."

When Le Lu came to Chengdu, he was alone.

But now, Le Lushao has married in Chengdu and has a child.

In fact, Huo Hai greatly underestimated the valuation of this car company.

Because nowadays the so-called billion is a unit of big money.

The 100 million described by Huo Hai is actually one tael of silver.

Although the Han Dynasty has launched Han currency, it has not yet gained popularity among ordinary people.

However, in the future, currency will inevitably experience inflation under orderly control, while other parts of the world will inherit the Han Dynasty's big money system.

The people in the Future Han Center use real Han coins, each worth one thousand Daqian.

The hundreds of billions that Huo Hai mentioned are hundreds of billions of Chinese currency, which is equivalent to a trillion-level wealth today.

Although inflation will be quite exaggerated, by then this car company will at least be a trillion-dollar enterprise, which is similar to those state-owned enterprises.

Le Lusao: "So, what's the point of all that money? I have invented the internal combustion engine and I use it in cars. Then I need to use it in trains and ships to realize its value."

"If I was the first to use the internal combustion engine in cars, and I just keep doing this for 100, 200, 300 years, what good will that do to the progress of science and technology?"

"Then I'd be a businessman, not a scientist."

Huo Hai: "You should really think about it. Maybe in a hundred or two hundred years, your descendants will be so poor that they can't even find a wife, and live in a house of dozens of square meters every day. By then, he may hate your choice today."

Le Lu: "If he is destined to have only this much brain, then even if he has hundreds of billions, he won't be able to use them, and this company will definitely be lost."

"By then, it will still be someone else who will take over this company and make money under my name, instead of my offspring who are destined to be useless."

Huo Hai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

Yes, this is the law of the jungle... No, the law of the jungle is not enough to describe this world, it should be said that this is the dark world of capital.

Unfortunately, only capital can quickly drive the Han Dynasty to occupy the world and occupy all the world's survival resources.

What Huo Hai needs to do is to keep all resources within the Han Dynasty. As for how to divide them internally, that is the business of future generations.

Le Lusao is worthy of being the person who invented the internal combustion engine. He saw the truth so quickly.

It's like Karl Benz went to great lengths to use his connections and collude with congressmen to get the title of the inventor of the internal combustion engine.

In the end, his descendants no longer own the Mercedes-Benz Group.

Instead of being a villain today, you might as well be a great person.

However, Huo Hai chose another path.

Huo Hai is not sure whether his offspring are smart.

So Huo Hai chose to have more children.

Nowadays, among the Huo family's Huo Hai branch, the number of male descendants is already over 20 years old.

Le Lu finally decided to take on the job of researching internal combustion engine vehicles and established a new research institute, the Institute of Electronic Machinery, in the city of Chengdu.

It is very difficult to train talents from scratch in Lelu.

Fortunately, Wen Weng left behind a very good new learning system.

Zhang Tianshi trained a large number of young engineering talents in Chengdu, who were previously brought to Qingcheng Mountain to research weapons.

Now, these talents share the profits with the Institute of Electronic Machinery on a 50-50 basis.

The Institute of Weapon Machinery and the Institute of Electronic Machinery became two important research institutes in Chengdu.

……

Liu Che looked at the report and felt a little unhappy.

Half of the talent in weapons research has been taken away, so the progress of weapons research has slowed down.

Weapons are tools of rule.

But then he changed his mind and sighed.

In recent years, Wei Zifu has always complained that Princess Wei Chang left Chang'an to avoid Emperor Liu Che.

She was right, it was hiding.

Liu Che himself was also very clear about this.

Huo Hai clearly felt the growing threat he posed, so he ran away.

Liu Che also discovered something and began to lose control of his anger about certain things.

In the past, I would just look at things and let them go, but now I get angry first and then start to think about whether I can change or if I can do better with the new changes.

With the addition of this angry process, it becomes very weird.

Liu Che once read an issue of Science Daily in which a newcomer published his research report, which was recommended for publication by medical giant Peng Yi.

The title of the research report is "Mental Illness".

It is specifically mentioned that if a person lives to a very old age, he or she may lose his or her clear will, memory, and logical ability.

And the extent of losing these things will become more and more serious.

It is not obvious at first, but in the end, you may not recognize the people in front of you, only remember things that happened decades ago, can't remember what to do, do one thing halfway and then turn around to do another, or all kinds of strange phenomena may occur.

This disease is called Alzheimer's disease. Liu Che was wondering if he had Alzheimer's disease.

However, Liu Che compared his own symptoms with those of Alzheimer's disease and found them to be obviously different.

So, I must have another problem.

The paper "Mental Disorders" also describes other diseases, one of which is called psychopathy.

Many people have various desires, desire for power, greed, and all kinds of desires.

But if a desire exceeds a certain limit and begins to have a huge negative impact on the person's actions, it is called psychopathy.

The study also pointed out that some psychopaths do not even need a certain desire, they only need reasons without internal motivation.

Liu Che also felt that he might be a little mentally abnormal.

But, I'm not sure, and it doesn't seem like it.

In fact, Liu Che thought too much.

His problems are problems that other humans will never encounter.

His current contradiction is due to the fact that he has long controlled the pinnacle of human power with his pinnacle intelligence.

He is the only person in the world who can directly come into contact with the essence of society without any research.

Through his long-term experience, the world he perceives is very different from the world perceived by ordinary people.

However, there is also a negative impact of holding power for a long time, which is that those in power increasingly believe that others are not intelligent enough and handle things incorrectly.

This cognition led him to want to correct other people's mistakes.

However, his increasing age has led him to feel a sense of urgency in doing things.

At the same time, his long-term control of power gave him the idea that "there is no need to explain my actions to others".

These conditions combined will lead him to make decisions that are incomprehensible to ordinary people, are extremely radical, and cannot be resisted.

There are many people in history who are called tyrants. In fact, Guangzi is the only real tyrant, and the others are more or less the same reason.

But now, the only variable is that Liu Che has seen Huo Hai's various successes.

What Liu Che needed to think about was whether the reason why Huo Hai did something had a deeper meaning.

To put it bluntly, in Liu Che's view, all the civil and military officials in the court were good-for-nothings and were just buttons to execute tasks, just like pressing one button to start a steam engine.

But Huo Hai's behavior requires thought.

It was because of Huo Hai's existence that Liu Che had not yet begun to become a "cognitive tyrant" who only believed in himself.

When Liu Che felt this deeply, he became even angrier.

Because Huo Hai discovered the problem earlier and ran away.

If the positions were reversed, he would definitely not be a match for Huo Hai.

Because he was born an emperor and had absolute intelligence, he had absolute power and was in an absolutely invincible position, so he and Huo Hai could work together to promote the development of the country.

If the positions were reversed, I would be a minister and Huo Hai would be the emperor.

Then Huo Hai should be looking at himself as if he were looking at the button of a steam engine.

At most, it is a smarter button, just like looking at Dongfang Shuo or Zhang Tang yourself.

After discovering this, Liu Che felt unwilling to accept it.

It took Liu Che seventeen years to realize this. In the first few decades of his life, he believed that he was a special person created by destiny.

Now Liu Che realized that if there was someone who was a special person created, he would definitely influence the entire human history, and that person was Huo Hai.

What made Liu Che even more tired was that he knew he was wrong.

From beginning to end, Huo Hai never did anything to threaten the Liu family's rule, never did anything to threaten the Han Dynasty, and contributed wholeheartedly to the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, Huo Hai did not have the conditions to rebel.

At present, the military power of the Han Dynasty seems to be in the hands of Wei Huo, but in fact it is in the hands of Liu Che, because Wei Huo commands the army, but Liu Che pays the army.

Nearly half of the assets of the entire Han Dynasty were in Liu Che's hands.

If calculated based on future development space and taking into account the price of land, then more than 80% of the assets of the Han Dynasty are in Liu Che's hands.

In addition, although the entire imperial examination system was proposed by Huo Hai, Huo Hai did not actually participate in the establishment of the imperial examination system, and the entire personnel appointment power was also in the hands of Liu Che.

Huo Hai did not have the conditions to rebel.

Taking all these factors into consideration, Liu Che had a deep understanding of one thing.

As I became more and more proficient and dependent on the use of power, I began to think about using power to do some wrong but arbitrary things.

And this is the nature of one's own mistake.

Before Huo Hai had this idea, he saw through his own nature and ran to Chengdu in a flash.

Liu Che began to calculate other conditions.

I am 52 years old this year and Huo Hai is 34 years old.

If the stalemate continues, by the time I am 60 years old, Huo Hai will only be 42 years old.

If nothing unexpected happens to Huo Hai, then Huo Hai eight years later will be like himself ten years ago.

Liu Ju? Liu Che had already half given up the idea of ​​Liu Ju and Huo Haibi.

Liu Ju was determined to do his research on trams and continued it to this day. He finally built ten tram lines in Chang'an.

The people of Chang'an were very grateful to him. Finally, everyone didn't have to walk anymore, and many office workers could finally take a car to work. It was cheaper and faster than a horse-drawn carriage!

The problem is... ten lines are the limit.

No matter how hard Liu Ju studied, he couldn't come up with any new routes.

Therefore, Liu Ju's research direction has changed.

Liu Ju wanted to study adding electric rails to trains and make electric trains.

At the same time, Huo Hai's standard car with 20 horsepower and capable of carrying four people has completed a road test around the Thirteen Prefectures of the Han Dynasty.

Then the final intensive production before release began.

Just by saying that an internal combustion engine car once traveled around the Han Dynasty, no one would doubt whether an internal combustion engine car could run in their hands.

In Liu Che's view, Liu Ju was too stubborn.

If Liu Ju's stubbornness was right, that would be fine. The problem is that his stubbornness was wrong. He could not see as far as Huo Hai.

Therefore, Liu Che believed that Liu Ju could no longer be compared with Huo Hai.

So...should I transfer power to Huo Hai?
Let Huo Hai lead the Han people and continue to rush forward?
While Liu Che was thinking, new information came in.

This time, it is not just Huo Hai who is going to build the Ancheng Line. The latest intelligence shows that the reason why Chengdu established the Electronic Machinery Institute is to research a new type of internal combustion locomotive.

The goal is to succeed within five years, put it into practical use within ten years, and replace diesel locomotives on a large scale within thirty years.

Liu Che frowned.

For what exactly.

Even if diesel locomotives are more advanced than steam locomotives, is it necessary to complete the replacement in such a short time?

Unless, Huo Hai's replacement has other purposes.

Could it be... oil?
But what is the point of replacing the use of coal in transportation with fuel separated from petroleum?
The supply of coal will not decrease. Urbanization in various regions has led to an increasing use of coal. In addition, with the continuous construction of power grids in recent years, the demand for coal will only increase.

Based on the coal reserves currently detected, it seems that there is no such thing as running out of coal reserves.

So why is there a rush to develop oil energy?

Liu Che could only think of one option.

That is, this is the escape route Huo Hai left for himself.

Huo Hai discovered an area where oil was produced and planned to confer the title of duke there and then never return to the Han Dynasty.

"Has he become so afraid of me?"

How many people can give up their own home, let alone give up a huge business that they have worked hard for their whole life?
This is a super industry that is thousands, tens of thousands, millions, or even billions of times richer than the richest businessmen in the past.

Just prepare to give up?
Although this was not thrown away directly, it was distributed to his descendants and no longer in his own hands.

But, he was so afraid to leave, could it be that in his eyes, I, Liu Che, would definitely kill him? !

Liu Che really wanted to verify this.

But where is the place full of oil that Huo Hai discovered?
R.I.P.? North America?
Liu Che looked at the world map that had just been hung up in his bedroom.

The map already has the complete coastline of the east coast of North America and South America.

At the same time, it also has the appearance of Africa.

In order not to alert the forces in the Mediterranean, Liu Che temporarily did not send anyone to explore Europe.

But in short, the global map has been placed in Liu Che's bedroom.

"Where do you want to go?"

But, if Huo Hai wants to go, should Liu Che let him go?

Liu Che put his hands behind his back and said, "What if I give you the entire map and let you paint on it?"

Turning around, Liu Che began to think about another thing.

How long can Sima Xiangru continue to serve as prime minister?

If Sima Xiangru could live to be eighty years old, couldn't I live to be eighty years old too?

It would be great if Sima Xiangru could live to be eighty years old.

Another long-lived prime minister?

After Zhang Cang, Sima Xiangru appeared. Perhaps the world really had changed and universal longevity had arrived.

It turns out that the elixir is fake, but prolonging life is real.

……

When Sima Xiangru married his second wife, she was sixteen years old.

Now, Sima Xiangru's wife is already thirty-seven years old.

Sima Xiangru's son was already sixteen years old.

Sima Xiangru himself was seventy-five years old.

At the beginning, Sima Xiangru's wife, Mrs. Lei, actually didn't like Sima Xiangru. She resented her father for forcing her to marry an old man just for fame.

After a long time, she gave up the idea.

For one thing, Sima Xiangru was indeed very good at coaxing women.

Secondly, in her opinion, it is already amazing for a person to live to 40 years old. She is already old and about to die, so why does she look down on those who are older than her?

In the past few years of taking care of her husband and children, she no longer resisted Sima Xiangru. Unlike other families where they dislike each other more as they grow older, they became more and more compatible.

Seeing Sima Xiangru reading a letter, Mrs. Lei stepped forward and massaged his shoulders: "Who gave you this letter? Why are you reading it for so long?"

Sima Xiangru laughed: "It was sent by Huo Hai. This old guy provoked me and said that I would not live to be eighty."

Mrs. Lei: "He wishes you could live a few more years, right?"

Sima Xiangru nodded.

Sima Xiangru wanted to have a son, so he married a second wife. However, Zhuo Wenjun died, which made Sima Xiangru extremely doubtful about life.

But in the end, Sima Xiangru had no choice but to admit it. Now that he had three sons, if there really was an underworld, the worst that could happen was that he would go down there and admit his mistake.

Being able to provide some help to the Zhuo family can be considered as repaying the favor.

When the new business reform was developing Chengdu, Sima Xiangru reconnected with the Zhuo family and made steel and salt in Qionglai. This allowed the Zhuo family, which already controlled the salt and iron industries, to transition from being an old-fashioned wealthy family to becoming a big capitalist.

When establishing the Tianzhu Company, the Zhuo family not only invested heavily, but also invested heavily in this trade route.

Now, all the people that Zhuo family and Sima Xiangru had met are dead.

Now Huo Hai is still taking care of the Zhuo family.

Sima Xiangru now has an idea. He wants to let his eldest son go back to Chengdu. On the one hand, he can accept the shares that the Zhuo family gave to the Sima family during the business reform. On the other hand, he wants his son to study with Huo Hai.

Even if he could live longer, he probably only had a few more years left. Could he really live to be a hundred? Sima Xiangru knew his body very well. He had fallen seriously ill once in recent years and was saved, but it was hard to say what would happen next time.

Sima Xiangru told Mrs. Lei about his idea of ​​letting his son become Huo Hai's apprentice.

Mrs. Lei naturally couldn't bear to part with her son.

But in the Han Dynasty, people became adults at the age of sixteen, and Sima Qi was already an adult, but he did not seem to be interested in being an official.

So, it would be a good choice to go to Chengdu, his hometown where he had never been back, and start doing business.

If Sima Qi learned something from Huo Hai and was interested in a career in politics in the future, it would not be too late.

Mrs. Lei agreed.

……

Chengdu Thatched Cottage.

When he saw Sima Qi, Huo Hai knew that the time was getting closer.

The first batch of children born when the new business reform began have now grown up.

After so many years, the first urbanization of the new commercial reform is progressing steadily and is extremely successful.

A huge amount of capital and productivity has been accumulated.

Now that the babies born during the baby boom are about to grow up, the manpower of the Han people will increase several times.

The era of large-scale infrastructure is coming.

In five years at most, the first batch of babies will all grow up and be able to be carried on shoulders or backs.

The key point is that all of these children have received six-year compulsory education training, and one tenth of them will obtain higher academic qualifications.

Five years?

Five years later, regardless of whether Sima Xiangru could still be the prime minister, he had to go back.

Confucianism had already infiltrated Parthia for five years. In another five years, both Parthia and Rome would have been reduced to ashes by Confucianism.
