Chapter 177
However, after witnessing the true world.
He finally understood.
His former self was merely a frog in a well.
In the face of those powerful worlds, the Great Yan Kingdom was pitifully weak.
But now...
The deity had told him that humans could master a power, and like those cultivators, witch clans, and elves, they too could become strong!
His ambition was reignited as a result.
It became increasingly vigorous.
Beyond the Great Yan Kingdom, there were so many unconquered territories, unconquered worlds...
He had to reform and strengthen the nation!
To lead the Great Yan Kingdom to rise!
Above the statue.
Qin Mu looked at Yan, who had regained his confidence, and nodded with satisfaction.
Subsequently.
In the void, he wrote another line of text.
"In fact, the Great Yan Kingdom has already begun to walk the path of technology; what the Great Yan Research Institute you founded is researching... is precisely technology!"
"Technology is hidden within natural science; once you resolve those three questions, you will experience the true power of technology."
On the prayer mat.
Yan gazed at this line of text, his body trembling.
So...
The deity had already pointed out the direction for the Great Yan Kingdom's technological advancement.
And.
It was right before his eyes!
"From this day forth, mobilize the strength of the entire nation to resolve the deity's three questions!"
A crazy idea emerged in his heart.
Within these three questions lay the power of technology.
In order to conquer more worlds and build a vast empire...
He had to solve them as soon as possible!
Soon.
Yan performed three kowtows to the statue and left the temple.
He headed straight for the imperial palace.
He summoned his ministers and held a court meeting.
He began to issue brand-new decrees.
"First, elevate the status of the Ministry of Works and the craftsmen of the world; based on the extent of their knowledge, their rank shall be equal to that of officials!"
Once this decree was issued.
The ministers were in an uproar.
One must know.
In the Great Yan Kingdom, although the status of craftsmen was not low before.
It had always been below that of the civil officials!
But now...
He had directly made the status of craftsmen equal to theirs!
With more knowledge, wouldn't they be comparable to the talents of the Three Departments and Six Ministries?
As the ministers were terrified and discussing it in a flurry.
Yan took another deep breath.
With great boldness, he issued the second decree.
"Second, utilize papermaking and woodblock printing to publish the Divine Book, and spread it... throughout the world!"
Upon hearing this, the ministers.
Were even more horrified.
The Divine Book!
They all knew the origin of the Divine Book!
Decades ago.
Ji obtained the Divine Book, learned exquisite military tactics, founded city-states, and achieved various merits.
Afterwards.
Yan ascended the throne, obtained the Divine Book, and relying on what was recorded in it...
He created countless wonders, opened up the wilderness, and launched expeditions across the oceans, causing the Great Yan Kingdom's national strength to flourish.
But now...
His Majesty wanted to publish it and spread it to everyone in the world!
Just as they wanted to collectively persuade him otherwise.
Yan waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "You need not say more; my mind is made up. Keeping the Divine Book on a high shelf is far inferior to spreading it throughout the world!"
Ever since he toured the Three Realms.
His mindset had long transcended that of an ordinary mortal emperor.
No matter how miraculous the Divine Book was.
Compared to those cultivators, witch clans, and elves, it was still not worth mentioning!
It would be better to announce the Divine Book to the world and let everyone learn it!
Thinking of this.
Yan took another deep breath and issued the next decree:
"Third, from this day forth, establish the Great Yan Kingdom Invention Award. Anyone who studies the Divine Book and makes a new creation can report it to the Great Yan Research Institute to be granted official titles and noble ranks, and receive heavy rewards!"
"Fourth, the Great Yan Research Institute has pondered the deity's three questions without success; today, I announce to the world to seek capable people to solve these three questions!"
In the imperial palace hall.
After Yan finished speaking, the ministers were silent.
From Yan's gaze and words, they felt an unchangeable determination.
Facing this ambitious and highly prestigious emperor...
Everyone shrank their necks.
Not daring to remonstrate again!
Soon.
The four decrees were issued very decisively.
They spread to every city in the Great Yan Kingdom.
Under various rewards and stimuli.
All the subjects of the Great Yan Kingdom realized...
That to advance in the future, the path was to become a craftsman, make inventions, read the Divine Book, and solve the deity's three questions!
Thus...
Two hundred million subjects entered a vigorous period of study!
Outside the Blue Star.
Qin Mu witnessed Yan's series of measures with his own eyes.
He revealed a gratified smile.
To be honest.
Yan's four decrees somewhat exceeded his expectations.
Even he.
Did not expect that Yan would be willing to hand over the Divine Book and announce it to the world!
