Li Yi's head finally rolled down in front of the monument, and there was an endless stream of people who came to watch the beheading that day.
As the elder brother of the new lord... or the elder brother in name, Li Yi actually has the qualifications to live in the eyes of everyone. Most of the common people subconsciously believed that the blood of Lord Yunyang was much nobler than that of ordinary people, and he couldn't be easily killed. Just like those royal families who made mistakes, most of them will only be secretly retaliated by the king, and the family still wants to live in harmony in name.
But in Lide's eyes, people have to bear the price for their own mistakes.
Repay grievances with virtue, how can you repay virtue? If people like Li Yi can get a special pardon, that would be the greatest irony of the New Deal in Yuxi City. What's more, Li De promised the people of Yuxi City at the beginning, whether it was the demons or the Liyi who took advantage of the fire to loot, they all had to pay the price, so that the soldiers who died in the war could rest in peace.
Time will heal the pain, but the pain of the people who have lost their loved ones in the war will never completely dissipate. On the day Liyi was executed, half of the people in Yuxi City came to watch, and the streets were tightly blocked. When Li Yi's head fell, and the blood sprayed from his neck stained the monument red, cheers mixed with crying echoed over Yuxi City for a long, long time.
The outside world is another wave of earthquakes and another wave of rhythm, but Lide has become accustomed to it.
He has recently started discussing the general direction of future development with He Yue. With theoretical support, the industrial development speed of Yuxi City has been very fast. If Lide did not deliberately suppress it, it is estimated that it will develop even faster. Lide can come up with many technologies that are not available in this world, but he hopes that there will be no interruptions in the cultivation of talents in Yuxi City, and that the social system can keep up with the speed of industrial development. Otherwise, the extra productivity will be useless except for creating a new monopoly class. usefulness.
"When I was heading north this time, I saw a lot of ultra-ancient magic outside the Great Wall. Most of them should be used by the Sixth and Upper Three Clans. It is indeed much more powerful than the magic handed down by humans. But the conditions for activation It's also very complicated, and those magic circles don't have a few years of hard work, so I'm afraid they can't even understand the surface."
Lide took a bite of the pear and continued to say to He Yue:
"I think magic needs to be developed, and the first problem that needs to be solved in the development of magic is to find people with magical talents. At present, the field of magic is still in the hands of a small number of people, and it is passed down from master to student. Form a scale. The reason is nothing more than that the number of magicians is too scarce, and there is an instinctive crisis of trust in human nobles, so they tend to find inheritors by themselves, which is very inefficient."
He Yue replied:
"I talked to Felita about this a few days ago, and she is not against teaching others magic."
Lid thought for a moment and said:
"Let's print teaching materials. Our printing technology has developed very well, and it would be a waste to keep it unused. Ask Felita to write an "Introduction to Magic" to introduce the use of some basic magic, and then distribute one to each household. Ben. Yunyang is such a big place, there are always people with magical talents, it’s good to gather them together to teach. Even if there are not so many people who can use magic, as long as there are people who can understand the principles of magic and want to explore the secrets of magic, that’s fine. Recruited as a researcher."
He Yue laughed, took a sip of tea, and said:
"Is this also the category of science?"
Lied nodded:
"Yes. Again, science is a science that explores the principles of things and uses them. It has a set of methodology for researching problems. This method can be used to make incendiary bombs, and naturally it can also be used to study how to use the least consumption Unleash the biggest fireball. People who study magic don't have to be able to cast powerful magic, they just need to understand the principles of magic."
After heading north, Li De had a better understanding of the strength of the upper three clans. Maybe technology can fight against them at the end of its development, but instead of forming a scene where technology and force fight magic, why not bring the latter under my own control, and I want them all
In the past, Yuxi City was limited by insufficient production capacity. Although the magic club was established at the same time as the scientific research institute, the research work on magic was still basically carried out by Felita. There are two buildings, the building of the scientific research institute is bright and majestic, and countless researchers go in and out of it every day after work, and the other magic club basically only has Filita to check in. Every time I see it, it is inevitable that people will feel a kind of desolation Feeling bleak.
Now that Yunyang has been captured, more things can naturally be done.
What the people of Yunyang need most now is a stable life, which Lide knows very well. But stability does not mean a monotonous cycle, just like RPG games, it is the safest way to farm monsters and upgrade, but occasionally setting some reward levels can greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of players. Yunyang has initially decided that there will be no change in the general direction announced by Yuxi City in a short period of time, and there will be no change in sensitive policies related to taxation and land property, but things like creating job opportunities and adding new types of work, The people will not refuse, because it also gives them more hope in their lives.
"Researching magic is a good move. No matter from the perspective of short-term interests or long-term interests, it is beneficial to us. In the short term, we can find more magicians and increase our defense strength; In the long run, if we can master ultra-ancient magic, we may not be unable to fight against higher races... such as the demons."
Lide still didn't tell Heyue about the upper three clans, anyway, the goal of the demons is clear enough.
He Yue nodded. Although the reconstruction work has consumed a lot of manpower and material resources, the liquidity of Yuxi City is not sufficient now, but Heyue will never be ambiguous about such important matters. The military, people's livelihood, and scientific research and exploration are the three areas he values most at present, and He Yue is very clear about their importance:
"Don't worry. I will personally follow up on the matter of the Magic Club, and I will arrange the following matters when the introductory textbooks are released by Felita."
Lide finished gnawing the pear in his hand, threw the core into the trash can, wiped his hands, and continued:
"In addition, there is a method for quickly verifying conjectures in magic."
Lied rolled up his sleeves and patted on the complex tattoo on his arm, a mass of light slowly emerged.
The little ghost holding the sign blinked at He Yue.
Lied smiled and said:
"I picked this up when I was traveling north. It can create illusions and let people see the world in their fantasy. However, because this thing has never been exposed to technology before, the simulation of technology will be worse. Magic is different, if it involves magic research, if you want to do a simulation experiment, you just need to make it into an illusion."
After the little ghost listened carefully, he held up the sign without hesitation, and bravely expressed his attitude:
"Accept orders for a fee, ten gold coins at a time~[─=≡Σ(((つ??w??)つ]"
