Chapter 353 Limiting Population Expansion in China
Chapter 353 Restricting population and expanding China
"But having many children and bringing many blessings is a tradition left over thousands of years in China, and your previous encouragement of childbearing pushed this tradition to its peak. Now you suddenly say that you want to limit childbearing, will it cause resentment among the people?"
Hearing Lian Shanxue pointed out the problem to the point, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but smile and shook his head, "If it is to forcibly restrict people's fertility, it will naturally happen."
"But all we have to do is guide."
"For example, let's tell the people what benefits the elders can get by raising an heir to the fourth realm, and what benefits the elders can get by raising an heir to the fifth realm."
"On this basis, I asked Tian Qing to give some examples to tell the people that having fewer children and raising more children is better than having more children and raising them freely. Driven by interests, people will naturally follow the path of fewer children and better education."
Having said this, Jiang Xuan sighed again:
"Besides, I don't have any methods to forcefully reduce the fertility rate, but I always feel that it's not a good idea."
"I don't want to do that unless I have to."
Lian Shanxue showed a curious expression when he heard this, "What can I do?"
Jiang Xuan paused, and casually grabbed Xiao Zhiren, who was barking beside them, "Revise the Great Dao of China."
Seeing that the doubtful look in Lian Shanxue's eyes was still there, Jiang Xuan thought for a while and then explained it carefully.
"All human beings can give birth to a child within ten months of pregnancy, even if the cultivation level is strong."
"But it's not irreversible."
"When the day comes when I really have no choice, I can improve the fertility path and extend the pregnancy time of the fetus."
Facing Lian Shanxue's somewhat incredulous look, Jiang Xuan paused and said, "Of course, once you do this, it is impossible to simply extend the pregnancy time of the fetus."
"The longer the fetus stays in the mother's body, the stronger its own bones will be under the mother's care."
"Women from aristocratic families, royal nobles, are already doing this."
"They use themselves as the cauldron, spending countless time and resources, just hoping that their children can win at the starting line as soon as they are born."
Lian Shanxue couldn't help but frowned when he heard these words, "Isn't this against the ethics of heaven and earth?"
"It all depends on people. Only those who don't have the strength will say that they broke the rules and violated taboos. Who wouldn't do this if they have the ability?"
"And how do you know that those statements that go against the ethics of heaven and earth are not coming from the mouths of those who have benefited?"
"Is this so?" Lian Shanxue thought thoughtfully, "But are those women voluntary?"
"Using oneself as a cauldron to support the fetus in the belly will cause considerable harm to them, right? Are they really willing to do this?"
Jiang Xuan nodded, "Of course it's voluntary."
"The family will provide them with sufficient resources during pregnancy, and there will be additional resources to compensate them after the baby is born."
"In addition, this will make their children's qualifications far exceed those of their peers from the moment they are born, and they will have various additional resources from the family to cultivate them."
"On the contrary, if you don't have to support the fetus in your belly for the cauldron yourself, then the fetus will have average qualifications when it is born, and if the qualifications are average, the family will not devote resources alone to cultivate that child."
"If you were a mother, what would you choose?"
Having said this, Jiang Xuan paused and suddenly felt the need to turn what he said before into reality.
"I remember that there is a god Mazu in the south of China, and a god named Yuanjun in the north. Both of them have understood the avenue of fertility, right?"
Lian Shanxue nodded slightly, "Are you ready to put what you just said into reality?"
Jiang Xuan, who had just calculated something with his fingers, also nodded, "Yes."
"I did some calculations just now. The population of the aristocratic family only accounts for less than 1% of the total population of China, but the number of people in the six realms of the aristocratic family accounts for 70% of all the six realms of China."
"What a terrifying number?"
"Of course there is a reason why the aristocratic family has more resources, but using oneself as the cauldron to support the fetus, so that the newborn baby has better qualifications and higher understanding, accounts for at least 20% of the effect."
Having said this, Jiang Xuan suddenly tapped the sky.
The next moment, two stars, Tianxi and Hongluan, appeared in the daytime, attracting the attention of a large number of monks and people in China.
At the same time, the gods in Shenzhou, and even the Mazu temples and Yuanjun temples under Shenzhou, emitted red fluorescence one after another. The two gods who were just one step away from entering the seventh realm also followed the mysterious induction and came to Jiang Xuan's body.
forward.
"I've met Dao Zun."
After waving his hands to indicate to the two gods that there was no need to be polite, Jiang Xuan repeated his previous thoughts.
After finishing speaking, he looked at the two gods who looked troubled and asked, "Is there any difficulty in this?"
Mazu and Yuanjun looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then Yuanjun said, "There are indeed difficulties."
"The little god's power is low. If it only affects hundreds of thousands of ordinary people, it's really no problem."
"But for the people of China, plus those from other worlds, the number of living beings is more than trillions."
"With this little divine power, the little god can't really do what the Taoist Master thinks."
After receiving this answer, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but nodded.
Yuan Jun's answer did not exceed his expectations.
So he quickly expressed his thoughts, "You two would like to go to the Heavenly Marriage Palace. If you wish, I will let my heavenly soldiers and generals assist you."
"Other than that, you two only need to influence those who believe in men and women through the avenue of fertility, and all the expenses will be borne by heaven."
"Besides, it won't take long for Pindao to arrange for Tian Qing to spread the fetus-preserving method on the spiritual net. At that time, the monks themselves can use the power of true energy or all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to nourish the fetus."
After hearing this, the two gods looked at each other again, with a hint of helplessness and excitement in their eyes.
Jiang Xuan's idea was obvious, that is, if they didn't want to, he wouldn't force them.
But he still tells others to do these things.
But if they agree, then in the next period of time, the two of them will be the key training targets of Heavenly Court.
With so many resources, it’s not too much to put them in the Seventh Realm, right?
Thinking of this, the two gods saluted Jiang Xuan at the same time, "The little god is willing."
"Just do it if you want."
Nodding to the two of them, Jiang Xuan then sent a message to Tian Qing, and then controlled the Zhoutian Xingdou Formation to lower a guiding light, guiding them to the Nantian Gate of the Heavenly Court.
As for what happens next?
Tian Qing will naturally discuss the matter with others. Jiang Xuan can intervene, but there is no need.
After all, raising such a large group of subordinates is not just for them to eat.
After dealing with the rapid population expansion in China, Jiang Xuan turned his attention to China again.
China can no longer live in China, which can be viewed from two aspects.
The first is the population explosion, which should be improved in the next three to fifty years. Within two hundred years, the idea of fewer children and better education should be deeply ingrained in the minds of every Chinese people.
It can even use the pheromones emitted by the world to influence those worlds that continue to receive information from China, and contribute to controlling the population of the entire world.
As for the second aspect, it is because China has stopped expanding.
In Jiang Xuan's opinion, this problem can be easily solved.
There are many worlds, but there are not enough worlds with life in them.
It would be a waste to keep the land in the Death Realm. It would be better to integrate the Death Realm directly into China.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan had another thought.
The next moment, the stars in the sky flickered with light, and a tiny light spot appeared in the center of countless death realms.
Although the light spot was small, it swallowed everything like a black hole. It swallowed up a large area of land in the dead realm in an instant. During the transmission to China, it went through the formation and accumulated spiritual energy, and was filled in at the edge of China.
At this point, the land that had not been added to China for a long time began to expand again.
Feeling the joyful emotions brought to him by the Heavenly Dao of China, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but be affected by him and showed a smile.
Lian Shanxue on the side saw the corners of Jiang Xuan's mouth suddenly raised, and couldn't help but poke his chest with her finger, "Why are you laughing?"
Looking down at Lian Shanxue, who looked extremely charming, Jiang Xuan smiled, took her little hand, held her in his arms, and then stepped out to reach the end of the world.
Literally the end of the sky is the end of the world.
Lian Shanxue, who was held in Jiang Xuan's arms, felt that his vision had flickered and the world had changed.
She snuggled into Jiang Xuan's arms and looked around, then she showed a surprised expression, "Is this the end of the world?"
As she spoke, she pointed to the dark land that kept appearing, "Why is the world starting to expand again?"
"And the expansion speed is too fast, right?"
"I remember that before China stopped expanding, it only expanded 10 miles with every breath, and the expansion rate was getting slower and slower."
"What about now? Isn't the land that expands in one breath more than a hundred miles?"
Speaking of this, Lian Shanxue's eyes became even more surprised, "China is already so big, and each breath expands hundreds of miles to the outside world. The area expanded by this breath is enough for many human races to live, and how much world origin is consumed?
"
Hearing Lian Shanxue exclaimed, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but smile and pinch her nose.
"It doesn't take much origin."
"This expansion of China is based on the complete dissipation of some dead realms."
"How could China expand so fast if there was no endless realm of death to support China?"
Hearing this, Lian Shanxue immediately reacted, "Do you think of a way to move those dirt and rocks from the Death Realm to China?"
"But don't the soil and rocks in the realm of death not contain any aura, and even contain some aura of death that is indelible for ordinary monks?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but pinch Lian Shanxue's beautiful nose again, "You said that those deadly auras are indelible for ordinary monks. Wanting to erase those things is not something that your husband and I can do casually?
"
Lian Shanxue smiled and punched Jiang Xuan's chest, then looked at each other between the newly expanded area and the original area, and then said:
"There is nothing in the newly expanded area, it is just a black land."
"There are no mountains, rivers, lakes, or vegetation. It's a bit too monotonous."
"This is not as good as the territory China has developed."
Jiang Xuan nodded in agreement.
"Indeed."
"But this is also the most cost-effective way."
"You little girl really don't think that I can remove the dead energy from these rocks and soil through formations, and then transport them to China to expand the territory of China without consuming any energy, right?"
"Let the Chinese people develop the black land here."
"At that time, let all countries issue a pioneering order. As long as they are willing to pioneer on these newly cultivated lands, they will be exempted from taxes for a hundred or thousand years. There are many people who are willing to come."
Having said this, Jiang Xuan flicked his fingers at the newly expanded land.
The next moment, huge lakes, intertwined dry waterways, and unknown underground lakes and seas deep underground appeared on this newly cultivated land.
This new area can be without mountains, but it cannot be without water.
Water is the source of life, and this is common even in fantasy worlds.
As the comprehensive intertwined waterways and lakes appeared, Jiang Xuan then pointed at Gao Tian.
The next moment, dark clouds gathered and continuous torrential rain fell, turning this newly cultivated area into a wetland.
After a while, the clouds disappeared and the rain dispersed, and the sun fell from the sky again. Rainbows hung on the sky, and at the same time, the lake filled with water also glowed with light.
Seeing everything evolved by his own hands, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but clapped his hands with satisfaction.
Creation always makes people feel happy.
"When people come here to open up fields and breed fish and shrimps, then these newly cultivated lands will really become a place."
After finishing his words, Jiang Xuan turned around and saw that the original world barrier had stopped moving forward. The monks chatting in low voices couldn't help but smile, and then returned to Shennong Valley with Lianshan Xue in their arms.
What he should do has been done, and it is none of his business how to use the new lands.
As long as he ensures that most of the land will fall into the hands of those in need, that will be enough.
As for the aristocratic families, the royal family, the nobles, and the big sects, will they occupy a part of the land that is very huge for them?
Jiang Xuan didn't care.
All he needs to do is ensure the most basic fairness.
If absolute fairness must be implemented, he can indeed enforce it.
But this is the greatest injustice to those monks who work hard and even risk their own lives to fight for themselves and their descendants.
After staying in Shennong Valley for a few more days, Jiang Xuanzheng was a little idle and wanted to practice cultivation. Lian Shanxue, who was making tea for him, immediately saw something, "Are you going to retreat again?"
Listening to the reluctance in Lian Shanxue's words, Jiang Xuan was silent for a moment and then nodded.
But Lian Shanxue, who usually seemed reasonable, was a little unhappy this time.
"Your cultivation level allows you to face the truth directly, so why can't you stay with me more?"
Feeling the worry contained in Lian Shanxue's words, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Are you worried about me?"
Lian Shanxue nodded, "With your level of cultivation, the next step should be to attain enlightenment, right?"
"But you also said that there are three kalpas of enlightenment. You may be able to survive the first and second kalpas calmly, but what about the third kalpa of transformation?"
"It is said that the stronger the strength, the more difficult the calamity will be. It is normal for me to worry about you."
Hearing this, Jiang Xuan couldn't help but smile.
"If I don't have enough strength, how can I possibly achieve enlightenment?"
