Chapter 1064 To Save the World!

Fiona wanted to talk to Tang En about family planning.

Don't get me wrong, this family planning is not another family planning, but to increase the existing population as much as possible in the shortest possible time.

According to the normal social development route, the population is directly proportional to the carrying capacity of the land. The carrying capacity of the land refers to the ability of a country or region to degrade land without causing irreversible negative effects on land resources under a certain level of technology and investment intensity. It can continuously and stably support the maximum population with a certain level of consumption or the scale of human activities with a certain intensity without causing serious environmental degradation.

The situation in Purandar is already very clear to everyone. It is typically vast and sparsely populated, and the land here is not barren. Logically speaking, the upper limit of population in Purandar should be very high. Although it has not entered an industrialized society, it should be maintained at least thirty years. A population of 100 million is not a problem.

But everyone also knows that the two Chaos Invasion Wars brought huge disasters to Purandar, with the population falling off a cliff, coupled with the environmental pollution caused by the random appearance of Chaos Gates every now and then, and the slow progress of agricultural development. , various factors combined to create the current situation in Purandar.

The total population of the huge Purandhar is less than one billion.

Among them, the Illrus Empire (including the Soland Territory) currently has the largest population. According to incomplete statistics (after all, the conditions are simple and there must be gaps), the current population totals about 586.4 million. Optimistically After all, there are 600 million people, which doesn't seem too small - but don't forget, this is with the addition of Solante.

The Solant region alone has a population of more than 400 million!

This is the most fertile area of ​​Purandar. The grain output of the White Mist Plain accounts for a quarter of Solant, but only one-tenth of the population lives here, which is less than 40 million people. Definitely the largest granary.

The population of the Ronitant Kingdom is second only to the Illus Empire, with a population of more than 200 million, reaching about 230 million. This is due to the commercial prosperity of Ronitant in recent years and the import of large amounts of food. The amount of growth after which a larger population can be fed.

The Kingdom of Grace rarely releases various data to the outside world, but according to the feedback from adventurers and businessmen, the situation in the Kingdom of Grace is not optimistic. The land there is barren, the food output is extremely low, and the population may not even be 100 million. The level cannot be broken through, and optimistic estimates are only about 80 million.

In other words, the total population of the three major kingdoms of mankind is only about 890 million. Even if the total number of people who may be ignored in crude statistics is only 900 million.

If we add the statistics of the orcs of various races in the Renne Empire on this basis, well, the total number finally exceeds one billion, reaching 1.1 billion.

With a population of 1.1 billion, according to the age distribution of the population, the birth rate and death rate are balanced. This is still a very rare and stable population structure. If we want to achieve a breakthrough growth in the population, we must find a way.

Tang En's current task is very arduous. He needs to at least double, or even double or triple the number of this population within a conservative period of forty years!

If there is not a sufficient population base, I am afraid that chaotic creatures will not be needed to destroy the world by then. The world itself will be destroyed after the war.

Strictly speaking, now, driven by Tang En's magic modification technology, Purandar has fully met the basic conditions to feed a population of three or even four billion.

The originally backward agriculture, due to the birth of various magical agricultural machinery, one person can easily complete the work of a hundred people in the past, making agricultural farming efficiency increase exponentially.

The high-yield seeds developed by Grandia at Tang En's prompts allowed the same area of ​​farmland to harvest more food. The elves, who were completely open to Tang En, also provided a large number of technical personnel who could work 24/7. It produces a large amount of delicious vegetables and fruits, and the canning factory can also produce a large number of cans that can be stored for a long time and are easy to transport.

It can be said that from this year to next year, magical agricultural machinery will be completely popularized. Coupled with the new varieties and improved seeds provided by the Earth Temple, Purandar's food production will once again increase by leaps and bounds. It is no longer a problem for people to have full stomachs. What I should worry about is probably how to preserve those "Kadar (Purandar version of wheat)" for a long time.

The explosive growth of food is definitely accompanied by a more prosperous food trade, and the originally inconvenient transportation now has bicycles, motorcycles, magic cars, magic buses, and soon there will be passenger airships. The big killer weapon was put into operation, and the teleportation array that Tang En exclusively mastered could transport a large amount of materials to all parts of Purandal in an instant. Even if the teleportation array was not used, the magic trucks and highways also greatly accelerated the speed of material transportation.

Trade prospered, and food could be transported to various cities and villages. Youdao was full and warm, and people had full stomachs. Naturally, they were in the mood to think about the next generation.

When you have children, you have to consider the development of the next generation. In the past, in Purandar, the sons of farmers were still farmers, and it was almost impossible to have the opportunity to be promoted to the upper class of society, unless they awakened their talents and became the Apocalypse. But now, With Tang En vigorously promoting education, farmers' sons may also become new rich.

With sufficient educational conditions in various schools, not only the probability of awakening talents is higher, but also the opportunity to come into contact with knowledge that was impossible to access before, stimulating their curiosity, so that in addition to awakening talents and becoming enlightened, children can also There are other paths to follow, and you can still become a reliable talent.

In this case, compared with villages, cities are obviously more attractive, so a large number of people will flow into cities, providing cities with a large number of labor forces and school-age children.

At the same time, the modernization of various cities has allowed the city to accommodate a larger population, the efficiency of the reformed government structure has been greatly increased, and the working population can be quickly and properly resettled, further accelerating social development.

Now, driven by Tang En, everyone's pace of life has begun to speed up unconsciously.

"I talked about this with Alleria before. Population is always a big problem. If we want this country to continue to be prosperous and powerful, we must have a sufficient population."

Tang En knocked on the table and said in deep thought: "It's just that when we talked about it before, we only had a superficial taste, because at that time the agricultural conditions and social conditions were not enough to support too many people, but it is different now."

"Yeah, it's different now."

Fiona agreed very much with Tang En's words. After regaining the Solant Territory, the rich and fertile Solant Territory coupled with the power of magic technology, next year's food production will inevitably explode rapidly, and it will be impossible to feed twice the current population. question, so after learning about Tang En's mission, Fiona immediately thought of this critical question.

"In this case, then I will discuss the specific policies with Alleria."

Tang En stood up and said: "With a larger population, the market will be larger and the economic vitality will be stronger. You can also look forward to it a little."

"I have nothing to look forward to."

Fiona pouted: "I finally understand the true mission of the Datang Chamber of Commerce now, so I have no interest in making money anymore."

Tang En smiled: "It doesn't matter if you have no interest in making money, but you must be able to spend money. If we don't spend the money we earn, this society will be in chaos."

"Okay, I understand, go find your princess quickly!"

Tang En nodded, and then teleported to the Palace of Alexis.

"You're really brave."

This was Alleria's first words after meeting Tang En.

"What's the meaning?"

"Your identity and mission."

Alleria put down her pen and talked eloquently: "You have always said that you want to keep it a secret before, but this time you actually go out and show your cards. Are you not afraid of causing chaos in the world?"

"Everyone who was there that day can be trusted, so there is no need to worry."

Tang En smiled and sat down opposite Alleria: "What's more, the situation is quite urgent, and I can no longer hide it. It is more serious to confess to everyone, and then work together to save this world that is about to fall."

"So, are you coming to discuss with me today how to save the world?"

"certainly."

Tang En smiled slightly: "Because now is the time to implement that plan."

"That plan? Which one?"

“Population Growth Plan.”

Alleria suddenly realized: "That's right, now that Solant has returned and the largest granary has been obtained, combined with the technologies and seeds you introduced, the food production will further explode, and it can indeed feed more people. "

Tang En smiled, then knocked on the table to organize his words. After a moment, he said: "The biggest troubles that hindered people from having children in the past were, first, lack of food, and second, poverty. Now the first problem has been solved. , can be solved immediately, the second problem has also been greatly alleviated, and people's income has been greatly improved, so the introduction of policies to promote fertility is also a matter of course, and it should not be hindered. I said, you remember."

Alleria nodded, picked up the pen, changed another stack of paper and started recording.

"Under the current circumstances, we have begun to publicize the policy to the outside world, and encourage newlyweds, including current families, who have one child to have a second child."

"Those who have two children will receive a monthly subsidy of one kilogram of wheat flour, ten cans of fruit, and a bucket of milk..."

"For those who have three children, the subsidy will be doubled, and they will also be given the title of hero family and be exempted from agricultural taxes..."

"If you have four children, the state will be responsible for all the expenses of raising the children from birth to adulthood!"

"Those who have five children - you can tell them this, as long as you dare to have children, we dare to raise them!"

"At the same time, in order to reduce the risk of childbirth and limit the childbearing age of mothers, except for those who are apocalypse, the age limit for ordinary mothers to give birth is between 18 and 35 years old..."

"In addition, in order to prevent the occurrence of cheating welfare benefits by having children, every 'hero' family must accept compulsory work arrangements and use work to repay social subsidies..."

Although Tang En knows that this policy is likely to cause a massive expansion of the population in a short period of time, it will put huge pressure on the national finance. There may even be a large number of families frantically giving birth to children to defraud welfare security, which will increase the burden on the population of Purandal in the future. Very dangerous.

But in order to fight against the chaos army, he no longer cares about so much.

Only by surviving can we be qualified to talk about the future.
