Chapter 163 The Miracle of Huaxia Island

China is a legendary place for many people. Many people who returned to China with Zhao Fubo have only heard of its name. Now when it unfolds in front of everyone, everyone understands why everyone talks about it with absolute pride. All those who see it for the first time will be shocked by its magnificence.

"This...this is a miracle!"

Under the bright sky of Huaxia Island, black smoke rose into the sky. It was the metal foundry on Huaxia Island. At this moment, there were already many metal foundry on Huaxia Island, lead, tin, copper, iron, gold, and silver. Among them, the smelting of other metals in addition to steel can reach a considerable level at this time. Especially after Martin's appropriate transformation, the texture was much purer and the output also increased.

Of course, due to the power issue, factories are all built on the coast. Here the sea breeze blows away the source of pollution, black smoke, from afar, and the azure of the sky here is not destroyed. At this moment, the steelmaking on Huaxia Island is just an improved crucible steelmaking method, and this method was not "created" by Martin. He is very strong in theory, but when it comes to practical work, steelmaking is high technology.

Steelmaking is not a very difficult thing for Huaxia Island. Iron workers who are familiar with the steel filling method from Wuhu, China, and iron workers who know how to produce Damascus steel, and iron workers who come from Damascus steel production in India. With the participation of scholars from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, they improved the crucible steelmaking method used by Indians, combined with the modern chemistry and physics theory known to Martin.

This is the real reason for the development of China Island. It combines the best scholars and craftsmen in the world, and with advanced theoretical knowledge, to reorganize and upgrade the technologies of this era. Just like the production method of Damascus steel, combined with China's steel filling method and coke metallurgy technology, the steel production on China Island has reached the earliest and most advanced level in the world.

The only knowledge Martin provided about this matter was experiments, this basic method of scientific research. The second was the modern theoretical knowledge in his mind. As for doing it, it was something that other people had nothing to do with him.

At this time, scholars and craftsmen on Huaxia Island who were snatched back from Europe and Arabia by Zhao Fubo from Europe and Arabia were soon conquered by the free and beautiful life here. They then began their personal research and exploration. With the largest library in the world at this time, I believe there is nothing that cannot be studied. Then here, there is another conclusion.

That is, the foundation of the country and nation's strength is not the economy or politics. The only fundamental premise is technology. Then perhaps this conclusion will lead to the following question: Where does technology come from?

Looking at the world in 1250 years, why is the technological development speed in this era quite slow? Compared with ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and the Han and Tang Dynasties in China, there is only one reason why the technological development in this dynasty was slow - religious totalitarianism. Arabia is the world of Islam, Europe is the world of Christianity, and in China is the world of Confucianism. Although the totalitarian means of these "culture" are different, they all have the same effect on society - to prevent the development of science and technology. This is one premise that restricts science and technology in this era, and another premise is the centralized rule of secular monarchs.

As mentioned earlier, under such totalitarianism, there will inevitably be bureaucrats like Qin Hui and Shi Miyuan who do not take the nation and the country to heart and only know how to fight for power. After the signing of the Magna Carta of Britain, its science and technology gradually began to develop at an accelerated pace. After the European power of "teaching" was controlled, the Renaissance was also the source of technological development, and eventually led to the industrial revolution.

As Mr. Li Dazhao said, "We throw a stone into the trend of the times, and the turbulences caused by us are spreading to the forever and cannot be eliminated."

At this moment, the society on Huaxia Island based on freedom and the prerequisite for the rule of law constitutes a social model of "relative fair competition", and this "relative" "fairness" is precisely the basis for the development of science and technology. Just as Europe reversed the totalitarian rule of religion and secular monarchs, after signing the Magna Carta, the Renaissance and even the Industrial Revolution came into being.

The development of Huaxia Island is not entirely based on Martin's so-called advanced knowledge, and the most advanced concept he proposed - the social form required for the development of science and technology! Just like the slander ministers like Qin Hui and Shi Miyuan, their brains are actually very smart. If they are used to develop science and technology, they may be able to catch up with Einstein or Edison.

So why don't they do it?

A sense of security, the desire for security under totalitarianism, has to manage their own power. As the power expands, they must face the challenges faced by the expansion of power. The solution is to continue to expand the power, and eventually, they use any means to expand the power and become a slander who has been infamous for the ages. So where does the sense of security in society come from? The rule of law, a stable, fair and just society ruled by law is the only way to solve this problem.

But a society without freedom of rule of law does not exist, because a rule of law that is not supervised cannot be "fair" or "just". So without a sense of social security, smart people like Qin Hui and Shi Mi can only become slander ministers. From this point of view, it can probably explain the fundamental reason why there are many corrupt officials in China and few real scholars.

In fact, there are many corrupt officials and few scholars. It is not a big problem. It is just giving the wealth we have accumulated over the years to foreigners, just allowing them to enslave us, plunder and exploit us, and finally insult us!

That's all!

The technological development of Huaxia Island is really based on the premise of the rule of law, in the most free place in the world. Except for the law, no one cares about what others do, and no one has the right to interfere with others without illegal actions. Even if it is the judicial system of official positions, law enforcement behaviors are still subject to law constraints. This may be the origin of the miracle of Huaxia Island, and the miracle of Huaxia Island.
