The journey back was particularly smooth. At the start, it took six days to find the base, but it only took three days to return to the base.
At this moment, it was obvious that the other teams had not returned yet. Li Chengdao and his team were undoubtedly the first to arrive.
Naturally, the things he brought back quickly attracted everyone's attention.
No one had ever seen corn, chili, guava, pineapple, and pumpkin before. Even the Native Americans rarely touched them. Only a few groups of Native Americans might have some understanding of the whole thing. However, it was obvious that the Chippewa and Tongwa people were not among them. As for the Chinese, they knew even less about the crops in America.
However, just like the 1,000 people who followed Li Chengdao, this doubt and curiosity were instantly shattered after eating.
The fragrance of the corn, the seasoning of the chili, and the different feeling of the pumpkin kept attacking the taste buds of everyone who tasted it. Although the number was limited to less than 100,000 people, everyone could eat these things.
However, only those who tasted it had their eyes lit up. It was obvious that Li Chengdao's goal had been achieved.
Under such circumstances, it was natural to promote planting. Pineapples and corn could not be planted, and it would take some time to pick the seeds. However, Li Chengdao still dug up many small trees for guava. The pumpkin was also ripe enough, and there were pumpkin seeds among them. They could also be planted.
As for the climate, Li Chengdao did not have to worry about it. In America, especially Los Angeles, crops could be grown in autumn, except for winter. Furthermore, it was only summer, so there was no problem.
In the face of Li Chengdao's order, everyone was obviously 200% obedient in an instant. Everyone began to work quickly in excitement.
To the people of the foodie empire, nothing was more important than food. If there was, it would be something even more delicious.
After arranging these things, Li Chengdao began to wait for the return of the other exploration teams. On the other hand, he expanded the base to the surrounding area.
That's right, it had expanded. To put it simply, it should have spread out to the surroundings. From the buildings to the roads, it had begun to spread in all directions to occupy more environment and more space in the camp.
Such an action was naturally extremely easy. There was no one in the entire America who could threaten him at all. There was not even anyone who could cause him any trouble.
Therefore, it was naturally very simple to expand. Of course, as this side expanded rapidly, Li Chengdao's pace of development did not stop.
He arranged for 70,000 people to enter the workshops one after another. They began to provide a large amount of foundation materials for the development of the entire civilization. At the same time, the school was fully activated.
However, this moment was not for the newborns. Even with three times the time buff, these newborns would not be able to grow up without a certain amount of time.
The school was running at full speed, not for anything else, but for the Chinese.
If they wanted to continue to dominate, or rather, if they wanted to develop, then they first had to achieve the dominance of knowledge. This was the case in any era and any race. In the future, it was the world of the white people because they monopolized a large amount of knowledge and wealth. Even if China had used up its resources for decades, there was still a huge gap between them.
What Li Chengdao needed to do now was to do the same thing as the Europeans, using the Chinese to monopolize knowledge. If he wanted to monopolize knowledge, he first had to make it universal. Although this seemed a little contradictory, it was not contradictory. This was because the monopoly of knowledge was broken by an entire nation, while the universal knowledge was for the entire nation.
Only when there was enough widespread knowledge could it give birth to stronger and more advanced knowledge and technology. As a transmigrator, Li Chengdao could be said to be very clear about this.
Therefore, he had already begun to take action. He had allowed craftsmen, including those who were knowledgeable, to enter the school and use the school's special characteristics to materialize their knowledge. Although the things that were materialized in the school were only knowledge, it was enough for the current China. This was because these basic things could completely allow him to cultivate a large number of low-level craftsmen.
Next, he only needed to upgrade the school again, or let a large number of low-level technicians undergo qualitative changes from quantitative changes to completely sublimate.
On the day he returned to the camp, Li Chengdao began his operation. 70,000 people, including the thousands of people from before, were sent to school by him in batches.
No one was an exception. Everyone could choose their own profession, but they could not refuse to further their studies. This was compulsory, and no one objected to this, not even the Crown Prince's aides. After all, although this era had begun to emphasize the vulgar nature of craftsmen, it was just a passing remark. Let alone this New Continent, even in the Great Tang, there was not much to be concerned about.
Especially when the effect of such a method was beyond imagination, no one had any objections. Since ancient times, the Chinese people had always been practical. As long as it was beneficial, then no matter what, they could accept it.
In the past 1,000 years, China's ancestors had played with almost all systems. Communism, capital, society, empire, feudalism, slavery, and the Republic. They had experienced everything in the past 1,000 years. To put it bluntly, the things in the future were almost all things left behind by their ancestors.
After proving that it was effective enough, there was naturally no resistance. On the contrary, almost everyone in the entire base supported it.
Time slowly passed in this minute and second. The school was telling the operation, and at the same time, the shipyard was telling the operation. However, at this moment, they were no longer producing Karak ships, but Galen ships and scissors sailboats. Galen ships were the main, and scissors sailboats were the auxiliary. There was no other way. The production cycle of the latter was too long. If they were to go all out to produce those things, there would probably be only a few ships in a year. This was not what Li Chengdao wanted. The vast sea was still waiting for him to conquer.
