Chapter 42 The Steam Age
After simply adapting to my current physical condition.
Liu Xie left the underground base directly.
To be honest, he had made all the arrangements as possible before coming in for the renovation.
He also thought that those arrangements were appropriate.
But after all, ten years is still too long!
Plans can never keep up with changes.
No matter how much he has arranged before, things may change at any time due to unexpected situations.
Therefore, he was not only a little worried, but also very eager to quickly know the current situation in the outside world and the specific development of the Han Dynasty.
As soon as he walked out of the underground base, Liu Xie ran into Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei.
They seemed to have received the news that the emperor would return today a long time ago.
"Your Majesty, I welcome your return..."
The moment they saw Liu Xie, the three of them greeted him.
For Liu Xie, it was only a short time since he had been separated from the three of them.
But for the three of them, Liu Xie disappeared for seven years, just like he had disappeared for three years.
The reason why it took seven years was that they only completed their first transformation and awakened their consciousness in the third year of Liu Xie's second transformation.
"No need to be polite, my dear ministers."
Seeing the three people, Liu Xie's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down a little.
The fact that the three of them could greet him so calmly proved that both the political situation in the Han Dynasty and the people were stable.
However, he was not going to ask the three about the development of the Han Dynasty over the past ten years.
After all, oral description is far less clear than presenting it in the form of data.
"Come on, accompany me to the Information Institute first."
After saying that, Liu Xie didn't wait for the three to react and walked directly towards the Information Institute next to Chongde Hall.
In the Information Institute, Gana can show him on the computer the detailed development of the Han Dynasty over the past ten years.
Arrived at the Information Institute.
Compared to ten years ago, there are many more people inside now, and the floor area has more than doubled.
Such a scene instantly gave Liu Xie a sense of a modern command center.
"Your Majesty, these people are Miss Gana and Miss Yuqin. They were recruited and trained from the public over the years. They are all outstanding talents in computer science..."
Yuan Shao, who had caught up with them, leaned over to Liu Xie and whispered in his ear.
"Yes, Not Bad."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xie nodded slightly, indicating that he was very satisfied.
It’s a lot worse than the useless things they taught when Shenhe Academy was first established.
The current situation is what he really wants to see.
Then, he continued, "Take me to see Gana, and don't disturb them from working."
"Your Majesty, please come with your attendants."
Yuan Shao took Liu Xie towards an office.
After knocking on the door and waiting for a moment, it was Gana who opened the door.
"His Majesty?"
Gana was a little surprised to see Liu Xie suddenly.
After all, before Liu Xie started the reform, he only explained the situation to a few important officials such as Xun Yu and Zhuge Liang.
To the rest, Liu Xie claimed that he had important matters to deal with and would be away for a while, but he did not specify the specific time.
However, when Gana couldn't help but shout out "Your Majesty", it became impossible for Liu Xie to not disturb the work of these outstanding talents in the Information Institute.
Although these people had never seen the emperor, when they saw the three ministers accompanying him, and even the academicians of the Information Institute called out, they knew to salute no matter how dumb they were.
Therefore, Liu Xie had no choice but to greet them first, then give a speech to encourage them, and then close the office door and talk to Gana alone.
"Your Majesty, you have looked a lot younger after not seeing you for ten years."
Gana poured Liu Xie a cup of tea before speaking.
Although Liu Xie did not tell her clearly what he had done in the past ten years.
But as long as we think about the generals like Lu Bu who disappeared for ten years, when we see them again, they can be compared to a generation of super soldiers.
She could also guess what Liu Xie had been doing for the past ten years.
It's nothing more than that, through the black technology mastered by the Han Dynasty, Emperor Liu Xie also possesses abilities close to that of a super soldier.
Liu Xie knew that he couldn't hide it from her, and he had no intention of hiding it from her, so he replied directly: "If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to live to be 200 years old now, and I can compete with ordinary super warriors."
Can live two hundred years.
It’s really good.
After all, among the survivors of Denor, there are still many people who can only live to a little over a hundred years old.
Liu Xie was able to do this without the help of Denor, and Gana was even more certain that what Liu Xie had obtained was the idea of the technological heritage of the Shenhe civilization.
It seems that if things continue to develop in this way, the Han people might be able to create gods themselves in the future!
"Your Majesty, are you here to have your body examined, just like you examined the other generals before?"
Jana continued to ask.
"There's no rush for this. Let me see how the Han Dynasty has developed over the years."
Liu Xie waved his hand.
"Well, wait a moment, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Gana did not hesitate at all and retrieved a large amount of information and data for Liu Xie to see.
At the same time, she also introduced to Liu Xie: "If we define an epoch-making word for the current Han Dynasty, we can call it the Steam Age..."
This is because, apart from the technological products directly created by the remnants of Denor, all machines in the Han Dynasty that require power are now basically powered by steam engines.
In other words, steam ships, steam trains and other things are available, and they can all be fully and maturely used.
As for the nuclear technology, satellites and other aerospace technologies that Liu Xie wanted ten years ago, don't even think about it. It is impossible to achieve them in ten years.
Today, it is not easy for the Han Dynasty to truly achieve industrialization and develop into the steam age.
"But it's enough."
After reading the data and listening to Gana's explanation.
Although I didn't see many of the things I had initially imagined, with the current level of Han technology, we do have the ability to unify the world.
The railway has been built to the Han border, and trains can quickly transport troops and strategic materials to the front line.
After that, we can expand and build railways all over the world.
Steamships and warships can also transport troops and strategic materials to ports around the world by sea.
Even, you can land directly from those ports...
Traffic problems are no longer an obstacle to global connectivity.
After a while, when the internal combustion engine was developed and replaced the steam engine, things became even simpler.
However, he still wanted the satellite.
Just act like a rogue if you want!
He really didn't want to use the telegraph as an excessive means of communication.
After all, we have a group of talents at the level of god-creating civilization in our hands, so it would be a waste if we don’t use them.
Just like playing a game, if you can directly increase your combat power by spending money, who would want to spend time playing slowly?
