Chapter 1376 Technology is the primary productive force
Zeng Cong, Tuhuang and Qiu Shi, the three Taoist priests, after making the request, looked at Qin Shaoyou nervously and anxiously, waiting for his reply.
The investment in research is huge, especially in aspects such as talismans, magic weapons and elixirs.
Whether it is improving existing things or developing new products, a lot of manpower and material resources are required.
This point is not difficult to see its importance from the fact that the word "wealth" is specifically mentioned among the four elements of practice.
The most important thing is that no one can guarantee that the research done will be successful.
Once the research fails, all the investment will be in vain, and not even a little bit will be lost.
But what the three Taoist priests Zeng Cong, Tuhuang and Qiu Shi didn't expect was that after hearing their request, Qin Shaoyou agreed without hesitation.
Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "Even if you don't mention it, I will mention it to you later."
He knows very well that technology is the primary productive force.
We also know that technology is power. Only by mastering advanced technology and having advanced weapons can we unleash more powerful power.
In this world, the research on talismans, magical instruments and other things is technology. Investment in this aspect is essential and must not be stingy.
Especially when we have to face the mad god in the blood moon in the future.
When there is no way to quickly break through to the realm of the true god through cultivation, talismans, magic weapons, and even pills and other things become the basis for dealing with the mad god.
For example, if we could develop corresponding talismans, magic weapons, and elixirs against the chaotic power of madness and devastation that disturbs people's minds, we would be able to keep calm and not be infected.
Then, even if you can't defeat the mad god, you will at least have more power to protect yourself.
Qin Shaoyou told the three Taoist priests:
"I plan to set up a research institute in the editing factory. The following will be subdivided into multiple research and development groups such as talismans, magic weapons, and elixirs, as well as departments that conduct corresponding research on the situation of the crazy gods in the Blood Moon.
If you Taoist priests are willing, I would like to ask you to lead the corresponding research and development team.
You can call your senior brothers and sisters in Jade Emperor Temple. If you know other people who are obsessed with research, you can also invite them to work together in the editing factory.
I dare not say anything else. In terms of research funding, material supply, etc., I will definitely give you the greatest support!"
Qin Shaoyou has always attached great importance to the improvement of talismans, magical instruments, and the development of new products.
It's just that in the past, he had little power and weak financial resources, so he was unable to give the greatest support to Taoist priests such as Zeng Cong and Tuhuang.
It's different now.
He became the governor of the editing factory, and most of the good things that Emperor Jianwu collected over the years fell into his hands, making him rich and free to indulge in troubles.
Not to mention, there is a nephew who is the emperor behind him.
The three Taoist priests Zeng Cong, Tuhuang and Qiu Shi were all very excited after hearing Qin Shaoyou's words.
Su Tingyu said with a smile: "I have said before that Senior Brother Qin will definitely support you in research and development. You still don't believe it. Now that you have heard his personal promise, are you not worried anymore?"
"Yes, yes, we really don't understand you as well, sir."
The three Taoist priests Zeng Cong, Tuhuang and Qiu Shi said jokingly, which made Su Tingyu's face turn red and somewhat embarrassed.
When Qin Shaoyou saw this, he laughed and changed the topic.
First, he asked the three Taoist priests if they had any specific research directions or ideas, and then told them that when the research department is established in the future, it must act in accordance with the regulations.
For example, if you want to engage in new research, you must first submit a plan listing the research direction and related ideas, which will be reviewed and evaluated by several subject leaders in the research department, and a response of approval or rejection will be given.
In this regard, the three Taoist priests Zeng Cong, Tuhuang and Qiu Shi not only had no objections, but also agreed with it and even discussed and improved the charter.
They also don’t want anyone to use the name of research to defraud precious spiritual materials.
At the same time, they also told Qin Shaoyou that they did have some research directions and ideas.
Even their ideas coincided with what Qin Shaoyou wanted.
They are all aimed at the crazy gods in Blood Moon: from resolving the influence of the power of chaos to resisting the pressure of divine power, and so on.
Taoist Master Qiu Shi proposed a bold plan.
He wanted to cultivate a kind of Gu that could be effective against the Mad God. He would take advantage of the opportunity when someone else sacrificed the Mad God to mix in these Gu insects and parasitize them into the Mad God's body, thereby monitoring the Mad God and secretly weakening him.
strength.
This idea interested Qin Shaoyou.
Although it was very difficult, he still encouraged Taoist Qiu Shi to conduct research, and even promised Taoist Qiu Shi to take some Crazy God's Eyeballs from the food ingredients as petri dishes and experimental materials for Gu insects.
At the same time, Qin Shaoyou also became interested after listening to the research ideas of the three Taoist priests.
He even asked the three Taoist priests if it was possible to imitate the legendary Nine Dragon Divine Fire Shield, the Heaven-shaking Seal, the Killing Immortal Sword and other treasures?
You don't need to be as powerful as the legend, you just need to find the right direction, achieve the effect, and then improve it step by step to strengthen the power.
Or is it a machine man? Add all kinds of powerful weapons to it, making it like a mobile fortress to fight against the mad god in the blood moon?
Come up with a Daxia version of the Nantianmen plan!
Yes, these things are indeed very difficult.
But when it comes to research, I'm not afraid of difficulty, but I'm afraid of not thinking about it.
Under the hands of a group of imaginative Fourth Natural Disasters, Hyrule has achieved a great leap in technology and completed the Industrial Revolution and the Revolution of Immortal Cultivation. The Great Xia Dynasty cannot be slow here!
After listening to Qin Shaoyou's words, Zeng Cong frowned slightly and was a little curious.
"May I ask, sir, where is Hyrule? From the name, it sounds like a foreign country in the West. What kind of breakthroughs have they made in technology there? Can you ask the court to contact us so that we can communicate with the people over there?
People, let’s have an academic exchange?”
"Um, this..."
Qin Shaoyou's eloquence was interrupted.
After he laughed dryly, he said with a smile: "Okay, I will find an opportunity to talk to the court, but there is no guarantee that this academic exchange will be successful."
In my heart, I feel embarrassed: I am a genius, but the disaster of Hyrule has not come to this world. Who are you going to talk to?
While Qin Shaoyou was excited, he also came to his senses.
The things he imagined were a little far away.
The current research and development work still needs to start from a down-to-earth basis.
So he asked the three Taoist priests to start from the direction that can immediately increase their combat power.
For example, we should improve the previous weapons such as light smoke bombs, develop some new equipment, and also develop talismans, elixirs, etc. that warriors can use to strengthen their own attributes.
Step by step, add technology.
"One person is short of wisdom. When the cleaning is over, you can conduct a survey to see what everyone needs most at the moment, and then do targeted research and development and improvements."
After Qin Shaoyou chatted with the three Taoist priests for a while, he walked around the spiritual object room under the leadership of Su Tingyu.
Check out the various treasures stored here.
I also took some that might come in handy and put them into the [human arsenal] to nip them in the bud.
Coming out of the spiritual object room, Qin Shaoyou saw Cui Yougui still outside the door.
Although I didn't dare to break in, I didn't leave either.
Seeing Qin Shaoyou coming out, Cui Yougui immediately came up to him and curiously asked what was going on in the spiritual object room and how many treasures were stored there.
There was not only envy in his words, but also a bit of strange dissatisfaction.
