==========
The development of the friends group, under the illusory and deliberate stocking, has a lot of randomness and freedom.

Even if there is a unified plan for friends, it is only a unified plan for some important areas, such as key technologies, such as [communication network], [electric nuclear energy], [agricultural planting], etc., as well as key projects, such as 'air Island territory', 'underground city', 'steel heavy industry area', 'shallow subway' and so on.

The advantage of this is that the internal development of the friends is very balanced, and civilization faults are not easy to occur; moreover, the stability of civilization is also high, and it will not be vulnerable to the invasion of other cultures; and the technological development of civilization is also very fast. Suitable for oneself, for example, the electric energy attribute of friends, coupled with the [circuit], [energy array], [electromagnetic weapons], [electrical appliances] and other technologies developed by friends, can play a better role; the spiritual power of friends Characteristics, coupled with various cultivation methods and skills, abilities such as [Illusion World] can also greatly promote the development of friends.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything. There is no designated development direction, and some forked roads, dead ends, and blocked roads will inevitably appear, resulting in waste of resources.

Just after returning to Kong Huan in the elders' house, I saw Elder Bai Min, who was written as Bainong's sister, and read as Bai Nong's cohabitant, lying on the special chair of Kong Huan with a desolate face, and seemed to be moaning indistinctly.

"This...what's the matter?"

Frightened by this scene at the gate, Kong Huan, who was in a daze, carefully closed the door, took a deep breath, looked back at the street that seemed to be getting busier, hesitated in his heart, turned around again, and then Gently pushed open the door, and finally looked at his bench.

Anything and nothing?
"..."

"how come?"

Dazed again, Kong Huan rubbed his eyes with his hands, feeling speechless at the fact that he had hallucinations before.

"Is it really old?"

Calculating carefully, even if you don't count the past, just counting from the quack era, I seem to be over 100 years old.

Talking to himself, Kong Huan tremblingly walked towards the elders' courtyard.

At this time, a muffled voice suddenly sounded beside the gate: "Aren't you and Xiaobai the same age? You are only 59 years old."

Speaking of this, Kong Huan has already seen who is coming. In fact, he can be sure without thinking, the other party is Bai Min, and the girl in the middle is secretly covering her mouth and smiling.

"Speaking of which, it seems that you, Xiaobai, and the Queen of the Black Bone Clan are all going to have their [-]th birthdays this year."

"..."

Empty fantasy is very similar to complaining about 'that one', but after thinking about it, I still said it.

"You're not bad either."

Ru Ru replied lightly, and immediately saw this girl who was about the same age as Xiao Bai, with a bitter face like eating a fly.

"Then, when will little girl Bai Min, who will have her 60th birthday in a few years, be willing to contribute to the population cause of our friends with Bai Nong?"

"..."

"What about you? When bullying others, shouldn't you first think about yourself?"

There was another cool sound at the door, and looking back, Lingxue stood there with a big thorn, looking at Kong Huan with a playful face, this idiot still had such a hated appearance.

Not knowing what fantasy Lingxue was thinking, she just waved her hand awkwardly.

"It's not that 8051 is out all year round..."

"Humph!"

A cold snort made Kong Huan so embarrassed that the topic had entered a restricted level, he hurriedly shifted his direction, turned his gaze, and finally found the reclining chair in the distance, Kong Huan's eyes lit up, and he immediately looked at Bai Min who was beside him.

"By the way, I just saw you sighing, Bai Min, what's the matter?"

"Let me tell you this."

Lingxue patted Bai Min, stopped the other party from speaking, then pulled Kong Huan and Bai Min to sit under the ancestral tree.

But what makes Kong Huan curious is that Bai Min seems to resist Lingxue.

Could it be that there was some conflict between the two?If the two were ordinary people, maybe Kong Huan would flirt with the two great Lilies?But the problem is that Lingxue is the main person in charge of government affairs in the elders' house, while Bai Min is the main supervisor of technology in the elders' house. The identities of the two determine that any conflict between the two cannot be ignored.

So, what will happen?

"It's actually very simple. Here is a questionnaire, which was given by the Bureau of Statistics and the Ministry of Finance. Take a look."

Taking the report paper that appeared in front of him, Kong Huan casually glanced over the useless parts, and saw the list below.

"Input and Output Statistics of Technology R&D Departments"

Seeing this topic, Kong Huan frowned unnaturally. It is fundamentally wrong to consider technology research and development according to commercial input and output, but he didn't say it directly, because he didn't have a position to publish it until he finished reading it. What, continue to read, the empty expression changes, and gradually calms down.

Not long after, the peaceful emptiness recovered, looked up at Bai Min and Lingxue, and finally concentrated on Lingxue.

"Tell me, what exactly is going on?"

"It's actually very simple. The Ministry of Finance and the Bureau of Statistics have conducted a large-scale review of government departments in response to the excessive fiscal expenditures in recent years..."

Regarding financial issues, Kong Huan also has some knowledge, and even this review was directly signed and agreed by Kong Huan, the purpose is to see if there is any corruption in the government department, or what the corruption situation is, but, does this matter involve the Technical Bureau , even the former director Bai Minke...

However, Kong Huan doesn't think that Bai Min will be corrupted, not only because she is Bai Nong's younger sister, she has no position on corruption at all, but also through the telepathic memory communication with Bai Nong, Kong Huan has a better understanding of Bai Min in front of him. It can be said that it is not necessary to understand Bainong.

"...The corruption situation is not serious, but in order to ensure the integrity of government agencies, the managers who were found out were handed over to the law court and sentenced to the due sentence. This aspect is not the main thing, let's talk about it now Min's question."

Speaking of this, Kong Huan obviously saw Bai Min pouted in dissatisfaction, and became even more curious.

"The report that you read before, you have an idea, but it's not that there was any corruption of the research funds provided by the government during the research process. In this regard, it can be said that the technicians of our friends are still very good. Yes, everyone used the funds reasonably."

Hearing this, Bai Min proudly puffed out her chest, but it seems that it can only be regarded as an ordinary level, and it is too far compared to Lingxue and the others... Uh, what am I thinking.

Kong Huan rubbed his face with black lines, signaling Lingxue and Bai Min, who were confused by Kong Huan's actions, to continue.

"However, the Executive Yuan is very dissatisfied with the funding for our family's technology."

"A money problem?"

"Yes, during the 35- to 40-year term alone, our family applied for government support for 301 technical projects, large and small, and spent a total of more than 4000 million copper coins, accounting for 30% of fiscal expenditures. There are less than 21 research results!"

"Technology research and development is always like that. Without any reference, it is very good to have such a ratio!"

Finally, Bai Min couldn't bear to stand up and let out his own cry, and Kong Huan nodded in agreement with this. Although he didn't understand these things when he was a human being, when he was in charge of developing the friends, even if he relied on In the period when the research model of the Civilization Control Center was used to drive the development of the technology of the Friends, Kong Huan also knew that the success rate of the independent technology research and development of the Friends was only about 16%; and now the research mode of the various technologies has been deliberately reduced. The proportion, the success rate or the achievement rate can be maintained at 7%, which is not bad.

Looking up at Lingxue, what Kong Huan didn't expect was that the other party also agreed, which confused Kong Huan. Could it be that Lingxue expressed dissatisfaction with the Technical Bureau in this regard?

"of course not!"

"Eh?"

"It's too easy to guess what you're thinking, and it's still that impolite expression!"

"Excuse me, what are you guys?"

Unexpectedly, when Kong Huan asked such a question, Lingxue and Bai Min looked at each other again, with sparks in their eyes.

"..."

Back then, when Bai Min came here, she was so docile in front of Lingxue, but now...

(Time really is a butcher's knife.)
Kong Huan couldn't help sighing.

……

"The thing is like this, my idea is that now facing the situation of the glaciers, the Pengzu needs a lot of money to fully deal with the construction of the three key points of the floating island, the dungeon and the ground heavy industrial zone. At this time, we should Focus on these three aspects, and technology research and development is also inclined to these three aspects. For technologies that take a long time or are not important, you can temporarily..."

"However, technological development is comprehensive and unknown. How can you be sure that the seemingly unimportant technical theory will be discovered by people after it succeeds, and it will be extremely important to the future of our family?"

"But can't we pull a lot of money out of a place where we're 'certain' important for a 'maybe'?"

"These projects don't cost much!"

"But they add up to a lot!"

"OK OK!"

After finally separating the two who were looking at each other again, Kong Huan wiped his cold sweat and asked, "The government is short of funds, can't we use private investment methods?"

"Investment can only choose those deterministic applied technologies, but many technologies can't be discovered by people before they succeed, or even for a long time after they succeed. As for those businessmen..."

Bai Min's expression was complicated, but Lingxue showed regret.

"Although Pengzu's business is also developing, there are not many merchants who are able to support important technologies. After all, it has only been a few decades, and most merchants are only in small and medium-sized circles."

"This……"

Kong Huan also had to remain silent, because he couldn't think of any good way: "How about, for the techniques Bai Min mentioned, we should first conduct theoretical demonstrations?"

"It's been done."

"..."

"By the way, why don't you conduct the first test in the fantasy world!" As if discovering a new world, Konghuan took the table: "Use the fantasy world to confirm its practicality, and we are discussing whether to provide more funds for actual production."

After struggling for a while, Bai Min looked at the expressions of Lingxue and Kong Huan, and nodded lightly.

"That's the only way to do it, but the reality of the fantasy world has to be further strengthened."
