Chapter 1193: Starting Point

Liu Han currently has a population of nearly 100 billion. This population is indeed very terrifying compared to the Earth in the first life. After all, the carrying capacity of the Earth, without the explosion of technology, would not exceed 10 billion.

The land of Sili is the most essential land of Liu Han. Sili alone has a population of tens of billions, and Luoyang, the capital, has 10 million, which is not inferior to the Xianyang City of that year.

Jizhou has a population of 300 million, which is not bad, but compared to the center of the capital, it is still a bit worse. However, Jizhou connects the Central Plains and the Northern Territory.

Because of the cattle and sheep on the grasslands, the commerce of Jizhou is also very developed.

In the Great Qin era, the four classes of scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants were actually not very conflicting, and the status of merchants was not very low. After all, many merchants were cultivators.

Cultivators like to trade, which gradually influenced the mortal world, so the status of merchants in the Great Qin was much better than in history.

At that time, the class of scholars was always in a high position. After all, many scholars were cultivators, which was unavoidable.

Liu Han also inherited part of the Great Qin's policies, and commerce was relatively more prosperous. Because of commerce, Jizhou was ranked as a major province.

However, among the 300 million people, those who are truly literate do not even reach one percent.

Especially those who can read and write, there are even fewer, almost monopolized by aristocratic families and powerful clans, much worse than in the Great Qin era.

You must know that in the era of Ying Zheng of the Great Qin, the great cause of education had already been opened, and the popularity of literacy had gradually risen.

In the assessment of local officials, literacy also became a content of assessment.

I have to say, Ying Zheng is worthy of being an emperor through the ages. Once the human race can truly reach that level of literacy as in later generations, then the luck and strength of the Great Qin will also skyrocket again.

Unfortunately, facing the Heavenly Court, the Great Qin had to make a move, and in the end, Ying Zheng still failed.

And when it came to the Liu Han Imperial Court, although the ancestor of Liu Han was not a person of the Heavenly Court, Liu Han could not develop like the Great Qin.

Many policies of the Great Qin were castrated.

The power of Liu Han compared to the Great Qin was truly too far behind.

However, in the future, the Taiping Dao will replace Liu Han and establish a new dynasty. Then, literacy will also start to be popularized. After a few hundred years, perhaps it will become like later generations. By then, the technological renewal will be even more terrifying than on Earth.

After all, cultivators researching technology will always be faster. They can use cultivation to constantly try.

If they fail, they can try again, and those with higher cultivation can also use innate calculation to infer.

This is very terrifying. For example, if Su Fan wants to research anti-gravity technology, for him, it is not difficult to directly use innate calculation.

However, Su Fan did not go either. After all, anti-gravity is indeed very advanced for the Earth in the first life, but for the cultivation world, anti-gravity itself is nothing.

As for the Jiuzhou, their foundation is still too poor, and the comprehensive technological level barely reaches the 19th century.

It needs precipitation. Anti-gravity knowledge is actually too advanced for the technology of the Jiuzhou.

Just like the method of runes,

Of course, in the future, when the technology of the Taiping Dao develops to a certain extent, it is not impossible to take out anti-gravity and the like.

On Earth in later generations, nuclear fusion and anti-gravity are the two pillars for humans to walk out of the solar system. The power of nuclear fusion is the power of the sun.

This thing is actually not difficult for cultivators to control. Once the principle is known, the materials are not too difficult for cultivators.

After all, the immortal gold materials forged by cultivators are far superior to any materials on Earth in later generations.

Especially those Dharma treasures refined by cultivators are even more powerful than Earth's weapons, not to mention the materials.

In short, the future potential of the Jiuzhou is wireless. However, wanting to reach that level, the Taiping Dao needs to unify the world.

This is not too easy. Even with Su Fan's support, Su Fan cannot do everything himself and personally enter the arena to help the Taiping Dao solve enemies.

Su Fan can provide resources to the Taiping Dao, but to do it himself would be too bullying. And if he truly solves the enemies, how can the Taiping Dao truly grow without experiencing everything?

Just like the founding emperors of various dynasties in later generations, without experiencing the defeat of enemies one after another, how could they establish a unified, peak dynasty?

This process is perhaps even more important and can train talent.

What Su Fan wants is a nation like in later generations, a nation where the national spirit awakens. Although feudal dynasties are not bad, once the hearts of the people awaken, feudal dynasties are bound to perish.

Since that is the case, why not reach the end in one go? Anyway, these cultivators like Zhang Jiao themselves do not attach much importance to the power of the mortal world.

Zhang Jiao's initial ideal was "Great Harmony under Heaven." I have to say that this ideal is similar to the concepts of many great people in later generations.

This is also the reason why Su Fan values Zhang Jiao.

This is also one of the reasons why Su Fan did not choose those few figures. After all, compared to Cao Cao, who is known for his "wife-loving" tendencies, Zhang Jiao's ability might be a bit worse.

Perhaps Zhang Jiao's personal cultivation is stronger, but unifying the world requires more comprehensive ability.

On this point, that "wife-loving" Cao is definitely among the top few.

Supporting him would definitely be easier.

But Zhang Jiao's ideal is the most in line with Su Fan's heart. Moreover, he needs to develop the technology path, and Zhang Jiao is one of the best candidates.

Synthesizing everything, naturally, Zhang Jiao entered his eyes.

"Venerable One."

Su Fan arrived again, and Zhang Jiao brought several disciples to pay respects.

"Mengling, after not seeing you for a few years, your cultivation has improved again. Not bad."

"And the development of the Taiping Dao is becoming more and more profound."

Seeing Zhang Jiao, still in the image of an old man, but his own cultivation was constantly improving, and now he had reached the level of a high-stage Earth Immortal.

You must know that this was only a few years, and the Jiuzhou at this moment were not as spiritual as in the Great Qin era.

Many people who had cultivated to the Earth Immortal realm could not improve even a bit in the Jiuzhou.

However, Zhang Jiao's realm and cultivation were improving rapidly.

Su Fan naturally knew that this was because of the blessing of the Taiping Dao's massive luck, and even the blessing of human luck.

The improvement of the Taiping Dao and the actions of the Taiping Dao were all slowly improving the human race and enhancing the foundation of the human race. The Taiping Dao advocates "everyone is like a dragon."

Taiping Dao disciples went to the countryside to preach, and they were truly preaching. Whether it was medical skills or agricultural affairs, these knowledge, as well as popularizing literacy, were all enhancing the foundation of the human race.

Although the Jiuzhou are only a part of the human race, this luck for Zhang Jiao, who is only an Earth Immortal, was absolutely majestic and massive.

As the leader of the sect, Zhang Jiao naturally gained a lot.

The Earth Immortal realm was not his end, but merely a starting point. ===== CHAPTER 1194 =====
