Dahan Technology Empire

Chapter 38, the first batch of interstellar colonists

The construction time of Star has been greatly shortened by Liu Qingquan's guidance. The long construction time that originally required ten years has been shortened by several years. Many preparations have to be changed and prepared in advance. The most important One of them will form the first batch of interstellar colonists in human history!

The Star was used by the empire to conquer the sea of ​​stars, to occupy the resources of the surrounding galaxies for human beings, and to hang and beat aliens. It was not like the fleet formed by Zheng He in the Ming Dynasty. It is simply used to publicize the majesty of the Heavenly Kingdom, not to mention imparting knowledge and technology to aliens.

Take history as a mirror to know the ups and downs!

The time of Zheng He's voyages is about the same as that of the Europeans' great voyages, but the influence brought by the two cannot be compared at all, and the impact on the host country is even more different!

The textbook gives the most fair evaluation; in terms of function, it has made outstanding contributions to promoting the friendly exchanges between China and the people of Southeast Asia, India, Arabia and East Africa.

It is the reflection and symbol of Ming Dynasty's political, economic and comprehensive national power. Foreign land shows the side of China's strong national power.

Zheng He's voyages to the West, visiting more than 30 countries and regions in Asia and Africa, was not only an unprecedented feat in the history of ancient Chinese navigation, but also the largest in the history of world navigation at that time.

It strengthened the political, economic and cultural exchanges and friendly exchanges between China and the people of Asian and African countries, spread Chinese advanced culture to all parts of the world, and enriched the Chinese people's knowledge of geography and navigation. In addition, taking Zheng He's voyages as an opportunity, more Chinese came to Nanyang and made great contributions to the development and construction of Nanyang.

Did you see that? The history books commented that Zheng He’s voyages were to publicize the strength of the Ming Dynasty at that time, improve the prestige and status of the country, and at the same time, he also brought with him the advanced production technology and culture of the Ming Dynasty. It is a typical stupid behavior that you can give anything as long as you save face.

Zheng He's voyages did not provide strong support for domestic economic development, did not stimulate the development of China's handicraft industry, did not promote the development of the commodity economy, but strengthened the foundation of China's traditional small-scale peasant economy.

Moreover, this kind of trade has little to do with the national economy and the people's livelihood, because most of the imported goods are high-end consumer luxury goods such as spices and treasures. At the same time, it also encourages the Chinese feudal rulers not to think about making progress, to be complacent and arrogant, which is even more unfavorable for China's political and economic innovation.

The foreign trade conducted by Zheng He's voyages was not a transaction based on equality and mutual benefit. According to the will of the Ming government, the trade adheres to the principle of thick trade and small trade, that is, foreign goods are purchased at high prices and Chinese goods are sold at low prices. Human vanity and self-centered worldview.

The consequences of this kind of trade can only cast a shadow over the development of the domestic economy. The huge costs behind the trade have added a huge burden to the people, which is not conducive to social stability in the long run.

In fact, it also proves that this kind of foolish behavior is unsustainable. After seven times, the national power of the Ming Dynasty was emptied and could not continue, and later it developed to the point of closing the country. Any substantial benefits brought by the entire country have brought enormous pressure to ordinary people.

Compared with Zheng He's voyages to the Western Seas, Europe's great voyages were very successful. They brought huge ships and cannons, and used bloody means to bring the whole earth into their colonial rule, and brought back ship after ship of gold and treasures. , greatly enhanced the strength of the Europeans.

It promoted the rapid development of their economy, technology, and culture, and laid the foundation for the development of capitalism. Imagine if Zheng He's voyages could bring back countless gold wealth to the entire Ming Dynasty,

Then the development direction of the entire Ming Dynasty will definitely slowly move towards the road of capitalism.

And if the European colonists, like Zheng He's voyages, brought knowledge, culture, and all kinds of good things to the natives, and impoverished themselves, then the European voyages must be unsustainable, and there will be no subsequent great voyages. era!

Our Chinese nation has made a mistake once, and we have also tasted the price of making mistakes. We have been ruled by foreign races for hundreds of years, and we have suffered humiliation and bitterness in modern times! The once-proud descendants of Yan and Huang would actually worship foreign countries in modern times and doubt their own culture and history, which shows the deep price of this kind of price!

The European colonists are just the opposite. Their descendants spread all over the world, their influence dominates the entire earth, their descendants control the entire earth, and the descendants of the natives who were bullied by them would like to thank them for bringing modern civilization !

Naturally, the empire cannot follow the previous path, but should learn from the European colonists, and use giant ships and cannons to create a piece of sky for their descendants!

Therefore, when forming the first batch of interstellar colonists, the empire directly promoted it with slogans such as interstellar colonists, instead of talking about a peaceful exchange team hypocritically, telling everyone in the empire that we are going to conquer foreign lands. Star people, we are the ones who will create a future for our descendants!

The empire actually had to do this. The construction of the Star cost a lot, and the huge investment of 100 trillion Chinese yuan was a huge burden for the entire empire. The imperial government had to issue star coupons to raise funds. It is said that the entire Star occupies several points of the empire's power!

Moreover, the planetary coupons issued by the government are mortgaged by the planets and galaxies that can be occupied in the future. Although the people themselves trust the government, the government should fulfill its promise to support the citizens of the empire who bought the planetary coupons. Citizenship of your own empire brings substantial benefits!

Whether it is taking history as a lesson or for the real benefit of the empire, the Star is destined to embark on the road of bloody colonization!

The Star is very large, with a diameter of thousands of kilometers, and it can carry hundreds of millions of people in a squeeze. Under reasonable and comfortable conditions, it is also very easy to carry tens of millions of people.

In addition, to carry out interstellar colonization, a certain population base is also required. After all, the transportation is still relatively inconvenient. The warp drive spaceship currently only has the Star under construction. Once it goes to an alien planet, it will come back next time. It will take at least a few years.

Therefore, the population of the first batch of interstellar colonists is set at 20 million. Citizens of the empire can sign up, and even the whole family can sign up together!

20 million people is not too much for an empire with a population of hundreds of millions, and the blood draw will not be too serious. At the same time, considering the first interstellar colonization, it is better to be cautious. Suppressing it, 20 million people is also the result of rigorous calculations by scientists.

It can ensure enough population for interstellar colonization, and at the same time, it will not have too much impact on the current empire. After all, it is blood drawing. Like a person, there is no time to draw hundreds of cc at a time. It takes a while to cultivate. The time will come back, and it can also promote the operation of the human hematopoietic system.

However, if one blood draw is too severe, the whole person's resistance will be reduced due to excessive blood loss, and it will be easy to get sick, and it will take a long time to recuperate. (Readers who have gone to donate blood should pay special attention to this point, and pay special attention to the amount of blood they draw. Many times they will draw more while you are not paying attention!)

The formation of a colonist team of 20 million people is a very large matter, and Liu Qingquan was very worried at the beginning because the citizens of the empire are living better now, and the number of applicants will not be too many.

But I didn't expect that after the government announced the news, the empire received more than 200 million applications within the first day, and many of them were decided by the whole family to go together, and more than ten of Liu Qingquan's children even applied to join Yes, the oldest of them is Liu Qingquan and Deng Yujie's eldest son, Liu Qingquan's fifth son Liu Qihao!

Liu Qihao is different from Liu Qingquan's other sons and daughters. He was naughty and restless since he was a child. This is very similar to Liu Qingquan when he was a child. Scientists, on the other hand, have been working hard in the army since a long time ago, and are now a middle-level officer.

Qihao, I don't allow you to go! Liu Qihao's mother, Deng Yujie, was calling Liu Qihao home at this time, reprimanding him severely, and firmly opposed him to join the first batch of colonial troops!

Mom, a good man has ambitions everywhere. How can I miss such a great opportunity? What's more, as the prince of the empire, he should set an example for the world. Other nobles are eager to sign up! Liu Qihao bit the bullet and defended , obviously the novelty has been decided!

I don't care about this, you have to know that you are going to the place you thought was in the solar system, and the distance is calculated in light years. After this trip, you don't know when you will see each other again!

Deng Yujie, who has always been strong and wise as a mother, is not at all as calm as before. At this moment, she is completely a mother who is worried about her son.

Mom, don't worry! The technology of the empire is developing very fast. After the warp speed navigation became popular, the exchanges will be very fast. It won't take long, and the quantum communication technology is so advanced, we can still communicate via video frequently! Naturally, Liu Qihao quickly comforted him.

Deng Yujie couldn't convince his son, and Liu Qihao couldn't convince his mother. Like everyone else, the matter came to Liu Qingquan.

Originally, Liu Qingquan was on a voluntary basis. Since the sons and daughters want to go, let them go. It is always good to go out and exercise more, not to mention that other citizens of the empire can go. Why do your sons and daughters of Liu Qingquan Can't go?

Of course, from the perspective of a father, Liu Qingquan couldn't bear his children to leave him deep in his heart. Although technology is developing rapidly, it will take at least several years of separation. For his children, any parent is the best. concern!

For a while, Liu Qingquan was also worried!
