The development of Aicao Town is also quite good, the land there is more fertile and agriculture is more developed.

But whether in the Mountain Territory or Wormwood Town, the best-developed industry is not agriculture, but the magic industry.

The foundation of industry is energy. According to Lu Heng's observations using psychic vision, a major source of psychic energy is the wind of magic.

Barbaris happened to have the ability to collect psychic energy, so a profession similar to that of an oil worker was born, that is, the psychic collector.

They search everywhere for vents of the wind of magic, collect psychic energy from them, and gather it into psychic crystals or psychic batteries.

Of course, saying that they are oil workers is not entirely accurate, as the overall working environment of psychic collectors is much safer.

As they collected more psychic energy, new psychic energy collectors and psychic energy batteries were also created in increasing numbers.

In this way, Lu Heng can continuously expand the scale of production.

The number of these psychic collectors has also expanded from dozens at the beginning to hundreds, and now to thousands.

Perhaps by next month, the number of psychic collectors will exceed 10,000...

In short, the psychic collector greatly broadened Lu Heng's source of psychic energy, allowing him to qualitatively improve the speed at which he made guns, cannons, and ammunition.

These advanced weapons will undoubtedly become the key to Lu Heng's support for the Taimenia uprising.

However... Lu Heng, or William de Brios, who made all this happen, was in a state of gritting his teeth at this moment.

As night fell again, Lu Heng once again lay on the big bed in the bedroom, took off his clothes, and raised his dick.

His lovely wife Rosa and the maid Barbaris were kissing each other mouth to mouth, and if you didn't know, you would think they were kissing passionately.

But the truth was, Lu Heng's dick was sandwiched between the two girls' mouths.

The feeling of being served by two mouths and tongues at the same time is extremely painful.

Lu Heng’s hands tightly grasped the bed sheets, it was so pleasurable that it couldn’t be any better.

After being served by the two girls orally for an unknown period of time, Lu Heng finally reached his limit.

The surging essence completely exploded between Rosa and Barbaris's mouths and tongues!

The wife and the maid also pressed the sticks tightly together and sucked Lu Heng's white essence together.

With Lu Heng's persistent attack, both Barbaris and Rosa became powerful fourth-level spellcasters.

It was these two girls who loved eating chicken who laid the most solid foundation for Lu Heng's magic industry.

The psychic crystals and psychic collectors produced based on their exclusive arts have also become increasingly efficient.

So is it just that Lu Heng was particularly lucky and happened to meet these two girls, which led him to establish the magic industrial system?

This is indeed a factor, but it doesn't seem to be entirely attributed to his good luck.

Although everyone's unique abilities are often unique, similar situations in the arts have occurred from time to time over the past thousands of years.

Whether it is Rosa or Barbaris, if put on a global scale, it may not be impossible to find someone with similar abilities.

Then why was Lu Heng the only one who developed the magic industry?

373. Benefiting others and yourself

To a large extent, Lu Heng’s values ​​led to this result.

If a traditional lord in this world also encountered a maid like Rosa who could create psychic crystals, what would he do with her?

He might have had his maid produce them constantly until she died.

But the most important thing is that he will try his best to prevent the psychic crystals from flowing into the public and being used by the people.

The reason is simple: the lord's superior status is not innate.

Lords are not born with three heads, six arms or twelve legs. What makes the difference between the rich and the common people?

It is the powerful who use violence to seize more resources, and these resources can in turn maintain and even strengthen their violence.

In other words, the first priority of a "normal" magnate is to weaken his subjects as much as possible.

Since their goal is to be the best, why would they promote psychic crystals?

We must be even more cautious when it comes to Barbaris' ability to collect psychic energy from the wind of magic.

Once the inferiors obtain the source of psychic energy and have the means to become spellcasters, how can the superiors step on others?

So it is difficult for ordinary people in this world to become spellcasters. Does this mean that the powerful and wealthy are doing a poor job of ruling?

On the contrary, it shows that their rule is effective.

Because they perfectly achieved his goal of weakening the lower classes and could control the people more smoothly.

This will allow them to be powerful and noble for generations to come. As the superior people, why should they share wealth and honor with the inferiors?

In the eyes of the powerful who only seek self-interest, being able to continually suck the blood of the lower classes is enough to live their lives.

As for the progress and development of society, what benefits will this bring to the powerful?

Actually, there are some benefits.

After all, this blood-sucking model will cause the political entity to be in a very inefficient state overall.

Once this political entity is invaded by foreign enemies, it is very easy to fail.

Because ordinary people have neither the ability nor the willingness to help the powerful resist external threats.

Even if the powerful want to protect their lives, they will be unable to do so alone, just like the Kingdom of Taimenia in the past.

Relatively speaking, the camp where everyone can cast spells will definitely become stronger in overall combat power.

Specifically speaking of Lu Heng's situation, he is facing a life-and-death threat from the empire.

Even if it is just for political advantage, he would rather choose a more equal and powerful one than a weak one who sits firmly on the throne of superiority.

Therefore, he wants to vigorously develop the magic industry so that more ordinary people can become powerful spellcasters.

But not every ruler makes a similar choice.

There are many rulers who sacrifice the overall benefits of society in order to maintain a hierarchical order.

For the rich and powerful who are used to being superior, strong people from other races may really be the objects of compromise.

But to share the benefits with one's own servants? That might be more painful than flattering foreign enemies!

So what if you're just a dog for the empire, just like Jacques did?

As a leader for the empire, am I not also a noble person in front of my humble compatriots?

From the perspective of being a dog, this dog has done something right, right?

At least it doesn't have to be like quitting drugs, and quitting the status of a superior person who has become addicted seems to be a good option.

This is really different from Lu Heng, who is a time traveler.

Lu Heng knew long ago that the kings, dukes, generals and ministers were also mortals, and the only difference between them and ordinary people was their power and status;

He has never been a superior person, so he would not be so addicted to bullying the inferiors.

But does the fact that he is a time traveler mean that he will definitely promote progress and make the world more equal?

That's not necessarily true.

Even if he is a time traveler, he can certainly be more feudal, more oppressive, and more exploitative than the real people of the old times.

As someone who has experienced it, he knows how mankind has moved from the old world full of oppression to modern society.

Therefore, his ideas on how to prevent people from modernizing are clearer than those of the real natives of the Old World.

He is also more capable of preventing social progress, thereby allowing a highly hierarchical society to continue for a long time.

Lu Heng could also use his modern knowledge to reverse the situation more effectively.

At least from a technical perspective, this is entirely possible, but he doesn't want that kind of future.

He has made his own choice to take a path that will gradually increase the spellcasting rate of the entire population, ultimately making the entire society stronger.

That is the path that benefits both yourself and others.

Lu Heng never claimed that he wanted to be a selfless person who only benefits others. What he pursued was to make the pie bigger together with the people.

So far, it seems that his efforts have begun to bear fruit.

Many old farmers of the new era have become more active in their thinking out of their own selfishness.

They took out a loan to purchase and learn about the Cloud of Life Generator, which accelerated the growth of their crops.

Before long, the food supply in Qunshanling and Aicao Town increased.

Although Earl William would also purchase grain, this non-scarce item could not be sold at a very high price after all.

So some old farmers moved their farmland to the northern continent in order to gain greater profits, thus solving the food problem of the migrant workers in the northern continent.

There are also old farmers who start selling their ability to release the Cloud of Life, so Enzo, who started raising fish, also starts to cooperate with them;

As Enzo's fishery produces more and more fish, they will also strive for a larger market for their own benefit.

As a result, the food of many civilians and even the troops under Lu Heng's command also improved.

All these de facto altruistic behaviors come from the selfishness of the grassroots people.

It is precisely because everyone is selfish that they will provide financial encouragement to others' altruistic behavior based on their own selfishness.

This is completely different from the idea of ​​the powerful being the superiors themselves and trying their best to prevent the lower class people from exercising their power.

It is precisely the powerful and wealthy who harm others for their own benefit who most need to suppress the selfishness of the lower classes.

The result is that while the people's selfishness is suppressed, the development of the entire society becomes extremely slow or even stagnant.

Although the powerful and wealthy concentrate psychic resources in their own hands, it does not seem that the total amount of psychic resources will be reduced out of thin air.

But in reality, it is difficult for the powerful who harm others for their own benefit to mobilize the brain resources of the entire public.

If all 1000 psychic resources were concentrated in the hands of one noble, then it would be one person’s mind making decisions;

Even if there are 999 civilians whose selfishness is suppressed in the territory, they are unable to contribute their brainpower.

Once people switch to the idea of ​​benefiting others and themselves, their thinking becomes active.

Various new ways of making money, cooperation, and even inventions and creations began to emerge one after another.

The only price to pay is the nobility of being a superior person, which Lu Heng didn't care about that much in the first place.

The author says:

Author's words: There will be another update in the evening www

374. Domestic violence scene

Compared to genuine love, Lu Heng is not very interested in forced "respect".

The "nobility" that the lower classes can only superficially identify with because they are powerless to resist often hides endless resentment.

As for how much resentment people have towards old aristocrats like Jacques, we will find out by holding a grievance meeting tomorrow.

After tomorrow, Lu Heng will come to the Western Continent as Earl William and completely ignite the spark of resistance against the empire.

But before that, it wasn't as peaceful as it seemed...

In the Territory of Brios, on a bench in a goddess church, a young woman was sitting and praying.

She was so devout that she came to church alone late at night.

The air is filled with a faint fragrance, which is the smell of incense emitted by the incense burner used during worship.
