Chapter 773: Crossing The River By Following The Experience Of Previous Countries, Zhu Yuanzhang Lef
The population carrying capacity of land is not static. It is closely related to the production tools, water conservancy, production technology and production experience used, as well as the cultivation, introduction and promotion of crops.
The reason why Yan Changqing optimistically estimated that the land population carrying capacity of the Ming Dynasty would reach its bottleneck two hundred years later was because of the colleges he opened.
For example, at Wanmin Agricultural College, he asked a group of agricultural students to research and cultivate hybrid rice.
Although he does not understand the specific breeding methods of hybrid rice, he knows the general direction of theoretical research on hybrid rice.
The so-called hybrid rice, in essence, is the selection of two rice varieties that have certain genetic differences and whose excellent traits are complementary to each other.
Then the first generation hybrid with heterosis is produced, which is hybrid rice.
As long as you know this, the only thing left is to find those suitable rice varieties, and then find ways to cross, breed, and optimize them from generation to generation.
As for the specific hybridization, cultivation, and optimization methods, this can be slowly explored and studied in the process of practice.
As long as the theoretical research direction of hybrid rice is correct, the rest will actually be a waste of time.
If you are lucky, it may take more than ten years to build a new high-yielding rice similar to the hybrid rice in the previous life.
If you are not lucky, it will take decades or a hundred years to build a new high-yielding rice similar to the hybrid rice in the previous life.
After all, the agricultural students of Wanmin Agricultural College are looking for the path to the answer with the known answer. Even if the efficiency is slower and more time is spent, they can always reach the correct destination in the end.
Once the new high-yielding rice, similar to the hybrid rice in the previous life, is hybridized, cultivated, and optimized, the upper limit of the current land population carrying capacity of the Ming Dynasty will be greatly improved by a leap.
After all, compared with potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn, which are not suitable for long-term use as common people's daily staple foods, rice is one of the real common people's daily staple foods.
Another example is the Academy of Science of the People. He and a group of master craftsmen have already created a hydraulic generator and are now studying steam engines.
As long as the steam engine is developed, steam trains, steam ships and other machines powered by steam engines can also be developed.
By then, Ming Dynasty will enter the steam age!
Although the steam age is only the primary stage of the industrial age, the improvement in production efficiency brought about by the steam age is at least dozens or hundreds of times that of the original agricultural age!
And the improvement of production efficiency by tens or hundreds of times is enough to make the current upper limit of land population carrying capacity of Ming Dynasty once again improve by leaps and bounds!
When Ming Dynasty entered the steam age, he didn't know if he would still be alive at that time.
But even though he had died at that time, there were scientists who inherited his relevant scientific knowledge, and the small seed of the hydroelectric generator he left behind [as well as other information about the understanding and research directions of the electrical age.
In the future, as long as generations of scientists continue to follow his research direction and study in depth, then in all likelihood, they will be able to successfully enter the electrical age.
The electrical age is the intermediate stage of the industrial age, and the improvement in production efficiency it brings is dozens or hundreds of times that of the steam age!
The production efficiency has been improved by tens or hundreds of times again, which can further improve the current upper limit of the land population carrying capacity of Ming Dynasty!
It can be said that as long as the Emperor of Heaven does not take the initiative to suppress the colleges he founded in the next hundred years, and continues to support each college like Zhu Yuanzhang does now, so that students from all colleges can continue to follow his plan Keep studying.
So it is almost foreseeable that Ming Dynasty will enter the steam age!
If this kind of support can last for two hundred years, then Yan Changqing feels that it will not be very difficult for Ming Dynasty to enter the electrical age.
After all, what Ming Dynasty wants to do in the future is not to create a new industrial era from scratch, but to develop step by step along the route he planned.
Compared with the previous life, its difficulty is actually much smaller.
Once the Ming Dynasty entered the electric age, coupled with the development of new high-yield rice and other crops, the basic life was actually not much different from Yan Changqing's previous life.
Even if there is still a certain gap, as long as you accumulate more time, you can slowly catch up.
And Yan Changqing was able to support a population of 1.4 billion people in his previous life, so there is no reason for the territory to be larger and the arable area to be larger.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty, which has also entered the electric age and has little fundamental difference in basic life, will not be able to support a population of 1.4 billion people!
In other words, the upper limit of the land population carrying capacity of the Ming Dynasty will be raised to more than 1.4 billion!
Yan Changqing estimated that the upper limit of the land's population carrying capacity, which is more than 1.4 billion, should be enough for the Ming Dynasty to develop freely for two hundred years.
Zhu Yuanzhang below, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, after listening to Yan Changqing's words, thought about it silently, they all nodded to express their understanding.
As time goes by, the times are progressing, which they can still understand.
To use a sentence that Yan Changqing once said casually before, it is "the development of things always advances in waves and spirals".
Therefore, the future Ming Dynasty will have a larger territory than the current Ming Dynasty, production tools will be more convenient than now, more water conservancy facilities will be built than now, production technology will be more advanced than now, production experience will be more than now, and high-yield crops will be more than now. More, that is normal and should be done.
Even if the territory of the Ming Dynasty in the future is not larger than it is now, the production tools are not more convenient than now, the water conservancy facilities are not built more than now, the production technology is not more advanced than now, and the production experience is not more than now, high-yielding crops are not available. There are no more crops than there are now.
Then they have to ask those unscrupulous descendants in future generations if they are just useless snacks!!!
The good Ming Dynasty was handed over to them. Not only did it not make the Ming Dynasty develop better, but it has always stagnated. What is this if it is not an unworthy descendant and a useless snack?!!
“As for two hundred years from now, if the upper limit of the land’s population carrying capacity is still reached, then the family planning policy can be implemented to suppress the population of the common people.
"For example, people are not fined for giving birth to their first or second child, but if they continue to give birth to a third child, they will be fined 100 yuan, and if they continue to give birth to a fourth child, they will be fined 100 yuan. Thousands of dollars and the like.
"The specific family planning policy will be left to future generations to dynamically adjust based on the actual situation at that time."
"It is enough for us to leave a solution for future generations to refer to."
Yan Changqing casually gave a solution to the problem of land population carrying capacity.
For Yan Changqing, who stands at the lower reaches of history, many problems encountered in the past era already have relevant solutions.
For example, the issue of the upper limit of the land's population carrying capacity was foreseen by the country in the 1980s in Yan Changqing's previous life.
And the country has also implemented the family planning policy and designated it as one of the long-term basic national policies.
Therefore, if the Ming Dynasty reaches the upper limit of the land's population carrying capacity in the future, it can follow the experience of Yan Changqing's previous country and implement policies similar to family planning.
"However, if policies such as family planning are to be implemented, then we must popularize the knowledge of routine contraception!"
"This prevents people from having children by mistake due to insufficient knowledge about contraception."
"If people can no longer afford to pay huge fines, which leads to people running around with their babies, or even committing infanticide, the impact will be very bad!"
Yan Changqing thought for a while and then added.
Since you have to cross the river by touching on the experience of the country in your previous life, you should touch it thoroughly.
It is necessary to adopt the good policies and systems of the past life, but also to avoid the harmful effects of those good policy systems of the past life due to the limitations of the times.
This is called truly learning from history!
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded upon hearing this, and at the same time decided to include the matter of "family planning" in his newly compiled "Inheritance of the Dragon-Slaying Techniques of the Emperor of Heaven".
After listening to the "Dragon Slaying Technique" taught by Yan Changqing, Zhu Yuanzhang painstakingly wrote a book about his reflections on the practice of listening and teaching the Dragon Slaying Technique in the past few years, which is "The Inheritance of the Dragon Slaying Technique of the Emperor of Heaven".
This "Inheritance of the Dragon-Slaying Techniques of the Emperor of Heaven" contains not only the content of the dragon-slaying techniques taught by Yan Changqing, but also the content of the dragon-slaying techniques taught by him, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Lan, Zhu Xi and other princes. Relevant thoughts, practice and application after completing the dragon slaying technique.
It even includes some future changes foreseen by Yan Changqing, as well as solutions to some problems that may arise in the future.
Its purpose is to allow future generations of emperors to better understand the identity and role of "the emperor" and know how to be a good emperor.
After all, not all emperors are as lucky as them to be able to meet Yan Changqing, a Saint who has an incomparable understanding and research of "Emperor" and "Dragon Slaying Technique", not to mention that they can also get Yan Changqing's step-by-step instruction. "Dragon Slaying Technique".
Such an opportunity is almost impossible to encounter again in future generations.
Since it is almost impossible for future generations of Ming Dynasty emperors to encounter such an opportunity again, Zhu Yuanzhang, as the ancestor, "naturally had to find a way to allow future generations of Weiming Weizi to follow them and take advantage of the opportunity."
Therefore, he recorded everything he and the princes heard, thought, and did about Yan Changqing's "dragon-slaying skills", and passed them on to future generations, including the emperor Da Ming.
In this way, future generations of emperors of tomorrow will be able to learn something more or less when they watch and study "The Legacy of Emperor Tianming's Dragon Slaying".
After all, the emperor also needs to learn and cultivate. No one knows how to be a good emperor from birth.
However, in the past, when the "emperors" learned how to be a good emperor, they either learned through the words and deeds of the previous "emperor" or through their own understanding. There was no real, concrete, practical, and practical guidance. The inherited "Emperor's Mind" can be learned.
For example, before he met Yan Changqing, he was sitting on the throne of emperor while slowly exploring and understanding how to be a good emperor.
Also before meeting Yan Changqing, he also trained Zhu Biao, the future "Emperor", through precepts and deeds.
However, this method of teaching by words and deeds or realizing it on your own has great disadvantages.
For example, teaching by words and deeds, the premise of teaching by words and deeds is that the emperor himself who teaches by words and deeds is an outstanding emperor, so that he can teach (King Li's) and influence the future "emperor" to become a good emperor through words and deeds. The emperor.
But if the emperor himself
Shen is a foolish and ignorant emperor, so what does he teach by words and deeds?!
Instruct the future "Emperor" by words and deeds on how to be a mediocre and unprincipled emperor?!!
I’m afraid this is not going to destroy the country!!!
If teaching by example and example is not enough, then the only way is to rely on the future "Emperor" to realize it on his own.
But to understand this kind of thing on your own depends on your talent!
In other words, if an "emperor" can understand the emperor's mentality on his own, then even if he is not born knowing how to be an emperor, that is not far behind.
How much.
But the question is, how many "emperors" are there with such an emperor?! Even!
Very few!!!
At least Zhu Yuanzhang did not believe that all of his descendants had the unique talent to understand the emperor's mind on their own, and knew how to be a good emperor without the need for the School of Humanity.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang wrote a specific and practical "Emperor's Psychology" that can truly teach future generations how to be an emperor, which is "The Ming Dynasty"
The Emperor's Dragon-Slaying Technique Inheritance".
As long as the future emperors of tomorrow can learn a little bit from it, then there should not be much problem in being a king of the temple.
When the time comes, the "Inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven Slaying the Dragon" and the "Ancestral Instructions of the Emperor Ming" will be passed on openly and secretly. This will be the most precious wealth he can leave to future generations of the Emperor of Heaven.
