The changes in three years were really huge. It took Liu Mei a full five days to roughly understand these changes.

If I had to use one word to describe Liu Mei now, it would be unbelievable!

The world in the past has not changed much for hundreds or thousands of years; the long life of a cultivator seems to have become an iron rope, locking the development of the entire society.

The long-lived masters represent this world, and young people are simply unable to do anything about it.

But the world now seems to have completely changed.

Finally, Liu Mei returned to the lobby of her new villa, stood in front of the new map, looked at the complicated lines on the map, and thought of the news she saw in a private newspaper this morning:

Railways and locomotives, routes and battleships are the two iron chains that control the world for the Ocean Group!

Today, the total mileage of railways directly or indirectly controlled by Dayang Group has reached an astonishing 300,000 kilometers; the railways are divided into two parts, the fertile continent part in the north and the vast soil continent part in the south.

In the north, the railway starts from Ninghe County, where Dayang Group is located, and extends continuously in three directions: north, east, and northeast, connecting the northern coastal countries, southern coastal countries and ports. The railway extending to the northeast finally

It runs through the Xuanzhen Sect and the Xiaoyao Sect, all the way to the Xianyin Sect in the east, and connects to the port of the Xianyin Sect, which is also the first port in the east of the Fertile Continent:

Bibo Port.

In the vast continent in the south, starting from Beihai Port, the concession of Dayang Group, seven major railway branches extend, connecting various holy places respectively. These railway lines look like saplings, with their roots in Beihai Port, and they follow the direction of Beihai Port.

It extends southward and branches continuously.

The current influence of industry is mainly on the Fertile Continent, then on the Rich Earth Continent, then on West Kunlun and parts of the Kunlun Continent, as well as a few areas in the west of the Northern Earth Continent, and on the western part of the Southern Rich Earth Continent.

Some areas, etc.

The main railway lines are concentrated in Feituzhizhou and Taotuzhizhou. According to statistics from the "Ocean Daily", the total mileage of Feituzhizhou railway is about 410,000 kilometers, and the total mileage of Taotuzhizhou railway is about 270,000 kilometers.

That is, the interior of West Kunlun is about 50,000 kilometers.

Among them, 300,000 kilometers are directly or indirectly controlled by Dayang Group! And most of the ones controlled by Dayang Group are trunk lines!

In addition, there are battleships and routes.

Three years have passed. With the public research on the technology to transform into gods, steel technology has inevitably been leaked. Today, there are many groups that can smelt black iron and steel, and there are also several countries or business groups that can build steel warships.

Many even have Dayang Group as a shareholder.

However, the most outstanding steel battleship is still the Ocean Group.

Nowadays, the open sea routes on the sea are completely controlled by Dayang Group. At present, the open sea routes mainly start from Changshan Port of Dayang Group, go south to the Southern Flame Snow Mountain Sect of Taotu Continent, and go north to Liuli Island.

Then there are the Fertile Continent, the Tuotu Continent, the Kunlun Continent, as well as the western part of the Earth Continent in the north, and the western and northern parts of the Rich Earth Continent in the south. In this vast inland sea, Dayang Group also has a decisive position.

status.

Nowadays, due to the large volume of maritime transportation, all the outer seas require steel warships, and 90% of these warships are built by Dayang Group.

The requirements for inland seas are low and can be skinned ships or even wooden ships; however, Dayang Group has built even crazier 'merchant ships' for inland seas.

This kind of merchant ship uses steel as its keel and ordinary black steel as its plates. Its length can reach more than 300 meters, its width can reach more than 80 meters, and its displacement can reach... 200,000 tons!

A merchant ship like this is not expensive, but tens of millions of high-grade spiritual stones are much cheaper than a battleship. Moreover, it is powered by fuel and steam turbines. It does not require sails or too many sailors, and its speed is as fast as ever.

It is more than five times that of a wooden ship, and its load capacity is three times that of the largest wooden ship. The freight cost can easily be reduced by 30%.

On the eve of the popularization of industrialization, goods were actually limited. Steel merchant ships were loaded with goods, but wooden ships had no cargo. In such a fiercely competitive environment, everyone had to buy merchant ships from Dayang Group.

"That's what technology is like!" Wang Suxin finally said to Liu Mei, "Only those who stand at the pinnacle of technology can take it all. The rest who are at a disadvantage can only survive in the cracks.

Even so, Dayang Group’s orders for warships and merchant ships have been scheduled until next summer.”

Liu Mei nodded with emotion, "I almost understand. I have something to tell Mr. Zhang."

"Please follow me. Mr. Zhang has been at the Technology Research Center for a while."

The technical research center of Dayang Group is not accessible to ordinary people. Not only does it have a separate defensive barrier, but the guard at the door is actually two gods in the transformation stage, and they have mastered more than one magical power.

Glancing into the eyes of these two people, Liu Mei actually felt a feeling of being seen through: it seemed that no disguise, make-up, etc. could escape the eyes of the other person. (It's not clairvoyance, it's the delusion-breaking type;

I must emphasize this for some lovely readers.)

Wang Suxin could only send Liu Mei to the entrance of the research center and could not go any further. Liu Mei expressed her gratitude to Wang Suxin and entered the research center, but she could only wait on the first floor of the research center.

Only with Zhang Hao's order will the responsible person allow Liu Mei to enter the senior management.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Liu Mei to get permission.

If it were in the past, if it were some arrogant people in the transformation stage, facing such hospitality, I am afraid that they would have turned against each other long ago. But Liu Mei is not that arrogant, and Liu Mei was also treated by Dayang in the past five days.

The crazy development and influence of the group shocked me.

Zhang Hao met Liu Mei in the conference room on the fifth floor, but Zhang Hao had been waiting at the door of the elevator for a long time. When he saw Liu Mei, Zhang Hao also apologized politely and congratulated Liu Mei on becoming the peak god.

Master.

Liu Mei spared no effort to praise Dayang Group and Zhang Hao, and finally said: "Mr. Zhang, when I come back this time, I feel that I have found a mechanism to the inside of Fairy Mountain!"

Zhang Hao's eyes suddenly brightened: "Really? How sure are you?"

No wonder Zhang Hao was so surprised. In the past three years, Zhang Hao has continuously sent people to explore Fairy Mountain and Liuli Island. But unfortunately, it seems that he can't find a way to the interior!

As for Liuli Island, it has been explored for thousands of years, and I don’t know how many times I have been there before and after. It is almost impossible for Dayang Group to achieve results in a short time. The situation in Fairy Mountain and Xuanwu Mountain outside the sea is similar.

Although Zhang Hao has guesses about these things, it is precisely because of his guesses that Zhang Hao does not dare to explore rashly. If some strange virus is accidentally released, or some demon is released that is not dead, the legendary immortal

A level demon would be troublesome. But in this world of cultivation, you really have to guard against it.

Zhang Hao and Liu Mei talked for a while and then came to the conference room. In the conference room, a technical application discussion was going on. To be precise: a discussion on the promotion and application of electric power technology.

At present, what Dayang Group has disclosed to the outside world is DC technology, which uses fuel cell technology.

Fuel cells have many advantages: today's efficiency can reach more than 60%, while theoretical efficiency can reach 90%. In contrast, the efficiency of alternating current methods of steam turbines and generators is usually only 36% to 38%, or even lower.

In addition, direct current and fuel cells are easy to manage, and do not require frequency modulation when connected to the grid. Moreover, the voltage is relatively low, relatively safe, and puts little pressure on the environment.

However, fuel cell technology also has shortcomings, such as high cost, high resource consumption, complex maintenance and repair, and poor reliability. And...the voltage is not high!

The voltage is not high, which is an advantage from a safety perspective. However, from a technical and scientific research perspective, it is a disadvantage that cannot be ignored. Moreover, DC power is difficult to boost. But it is precisely because of this that Dayang Group can preserve the power of AC power and fairy spirit.

secret.

What we want to discuss today is the expanded application of direct current technology: practice assistance!

After a long period of research and observation, Dayang Group has discovered and applied electric current to stimulate the body. Especially some people with poor spiritual qualifications but solid foundation can actually improve their physical qualifications through electric current stimulation. Of course,

This process must be closely monitored, as life may be lost if you are not careful.

However, after such a long period of research, Dayang Group has gained enough confidence.

Now, what everyone is discussing is whether this technology should be promoted. Some people agree, but more people are opposed to it. In the past, this technology was the private technology of Dayang Group, and only the core personnel of Dayang Group could enjoy it.

But those who support it also have reasons: although this technology is good, Dayang Group uses alternating current internally; and direct current technology is very weak. We should disclose the technology of direct current to promote spiritual practice, and collect enough data to feed back our internal

Alternating current technology.

Zhang Hao didn't speak, and just watched everyone discuss quietly.

Liu Mei sat down and listened for a while, and then she understood what was going on. After a while, Liu Mei spoke, "I think it should be made public. If DC technology is as everyone said, it will only be effective for the Golden Core stage at most.

It is only effective for the Golden Elixir period and will not threaten our status.

And it is only valid for the golden elixir period, which means that the juniors of the vast number of masters of practice, as well as the foundation of the entire practice world, will be affected by us. This potential benefit is huge and beyond imagination! And this benefit is enough to support

The future of Dayang Group!

We can build fuel cell factories everywhere, even sell fuel cells to others, etc. This will be a huge profit.

Electricity will replace some pills, etc., and its promotion to the entire society is unimaginable."

As soon as Liu Mei finished speaking, someone retorted. A fellow Taoist in the transformation stage calmly analyzed: "What the Taoist said is too idealistic. The Tao is to promote rice and benevolence to fight rice and enmity. We must really spread kindness all over the world. All major

Even the Holy Land cannot tolerate us!

If you want to make it public, it seems that you can only sell fuel cells and related equipment. Then create a buzz in newspapers and say that this is Dayang Group's technology. As for directly intervening in the local practice environment...hehe..."

Liu Mei frowned a little, but after thinking about it, she said: "But now the use of electricity to promote spiritual practice has been widely spread in society. Dayang Group can no longer keep it secret and can only make it public."

"That's different. Dayang Group's technology is based on the essence, but those outside now are based on the appearance, which is extremely harmful to the body."

While everyone was still discussing intensely, the phone in the conference room rang. It was Murong Shan, the current army commander of Dayang Group, calling, looking for Zhang Hao.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Hao asked coolly.

"Mr. Zhang, I have two pieces of news.

One is from the Red Lotus Sect, indicating that they will launch a general attack on the Holy Fire Sect tomorrow. They will be sure to completely eliminate the Holy Fire Sect within the next month. By then, the Jiangxia Kingdom and Xihe Kingdom promised by the Red Lotus Sect will be handed over to us.

Just to be on the safe side, the Red Lotus Sect also wants to 'borrow' 50,000 artillery pieces and 30 million artillery shells from us.

The other one is from the Holy Fire Sect. The Holy Fire Sect said: If Dayang Group is willing to mediate now, they are willing to gift Jiangxia Kingdom, Xihe Kingdom, and Tianshui Kingdom to us, and they are willing to be friends with Dayang Group forever."

Zhang Hao laughed after hearing this: "You tell the Holy Fire Sect that Dayang Group will not change its position easily. Also, you also tell the Red Lotus Sect: stop daydreaming!"

Murong Shan ended the call, but just two hours later, news came again: "Mr. Zhang, the Holy Fire Sect announced that it has officially become an affiliated sect of the Ming Sect!"

Zhang Hao's eyes suddenly became sharp!
Chapter completed!
