In fact, for the Blue Dragon Kingdom, whose industry and comrce are booming, a ten percent land tax is actually within the scope of optional collection.
The governnt of the Blue Dragon Kingdom did not rely on that ten percent land tax to survive.
Due to natural disasters, the agricultural output in the original Three Kingdoms region they occupied has significantly reduced. Coupled with low production efficiency similar to the Middle Ages, the newly occupied areas are almost three tis larger than the original population area of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, yet last year's food output was less than one-tenth of the highly chanized and intensive production of the Blue Dragon Kingdom!
This is a startling data comparison,
but it is also a fact.
This conclusion was drawn after a comprehensive calculation of the economic comparison between the original land of the Blue Dragon Kingdom and the newly occupied zones, published in the official newspaper of the Blue Dragon Kingdom.
Once reported, it caused a huge sensation in society.
All of this,
was widely recognized by the kingdom's citizens as a result of the great wisdom and forward-thinking policies of the great His Highness Austin.
The first was the implentation of intensive production and seed improvent plans at the beginning of the Dragon Nest Tribe.
Back then, in the process of forming his subordinate Clan Tribe, Austin aid to consolidate the weak subordinate power as much as possible. He cultivated their discipline based on military training and modeled early nation-building efforts by collectively engaging in labor, land reclamation, and farming.
This policy played a very important role in the early developnt of the Blue Dragon Tribe.
It was due to establishing a preliminary system in the deep forests, utilizing intensive production to change the lazy habits of the Beastn, and subsequently producing a large amount of grain which played an important role during the later expansion of the Dragon Nest Tribe.
To this day, as the Blue Dragon Kingdom has developed to its current state, these early policies of making arable land state-owned and conducting collective farming have now been reford and transford into a contract responsibility system.
However, the early rise of the Dragon Nest Tribe still significantly influenced the descendants of the Blue Dragon Kingdom who contracted the farming.
The group-oriented, large-scale, chanized production model provides much insight for future generations. Coupled with the expanding arable land area in the developnt process of the Blue Dragon Kingdom rising from the Kawa Great Forest,
Against this backdrop, many of the wealthy upper classes during the contracting process almost copied the early ways the Dragon Nest Tribe rose, engaging in large-scale production.
Without a doubt, large-scale production is far more efficient than small family-run productions.
Moreover,
early in the Dragon Nest Tribe, when Austin organized Beastn in the forests to cultivate, the selected crop types mainly consisted of easily grown and high-yield wild kudzu as the primary, supplented by other wild grains such as rice, wheat, and earth rice.
Those grain seeds directly obtained from the wild did not have particularly high yields.
But even then, Austin had plans for the future,
specifically allocating farmland for seeds, directing his Beastn to invest significantly more effort in these than in other fields, and then using natural selection to manually dosticate these wild crops generation after generation. He also began experints similar to hybrid rice, searching for new crop varieties, and more.
This work was evidently a long-term endeavor.
But over the years, the Beastn under Austin's command persisted.
After nearly twenty years, the kudzu grown in the Blue Dragon Kingdom now consists of excellent varieties selected through generations of dostication, as do various grains like rice, wheat, and earth rice.
Recently,
the Elf and Beastman mbers responsible for leading this work were awarded by the Blue Dragon Kingdom's governnt and were widely promoted in the official newspaper of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, creating a massive social impact.
These improved and specialized crop seeds, even without ntioning kudzu, result in wheat alone yielding more than twice as much as wheat seeds from other regions under the sa conditions!
All these results,
are because of the foresighted vision held by the great His Highness Austin when forming the Clan Tribe!
Besides,
the second is vigorously developing science and technology, facilitating the rapid developnt of magical industry.
After so many years of developnt, having absorbed various modern knowledge brought by Austin, the technology of the Blue Dragon Kingdom has experienced an explosive boost.
Especially in recent years, with the growth of the Blue Dragon Kingdom and the establishnt of the Magic Science Institute, there has been a cultural emphasis on research and knowledge outcos throughout the kingdom,
causing the extensive modern knowledge in the virtual dream network to be continuously deciphered, improved, and integrated into this Otherworld.
By combining local magical power with materialist scientific theories from the previous world,
the Blue Dragon Kingdom has developed a unique magical scientific industrial system in this Otherworld.
Also because of the presence of alchemy magic and other magical powers, once the theories were clarified, the speed of scientific industrialization was much faster than Austin's previous world.
As early as four or five years ago, the Blue Dragon Kingdom opened up the railway, significantly enhancing connections between cities within the kingdom, with the railway as a connecting link, leading to large-scale production developnt around it.
Alongside industrial developnt, agricultural machinery such as steam plows and harvesters were also produced.
In recent years, the rapidly advancing scientific industry has significantly improved and massively produced and sold agricultural machinery like plows and harvesters.
Against this backdrop,
scientific reasoning, chanized intensive production, and over ten years of uninterrupted crop improvent... such advanced production experiences have allowed the Blue Dragon Kingdom, even during years of natural disasters, not only to suffer reductions in output due to climatic reasons but to experience a significant boost in production.
The advancent in crop varieties, industrial fertilizers, and cultivation concepts, with rely about a twenty-year history of agricultural developnt, has made the Blue Dragon Kingdom far surpass other dieval feudal countries.
Therefore, the original territory of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, with less than a third of the area and population of the newly occupied areas, managed to produce more than ten tis as much grain!
This,
is still only concerning the aspect of agricultural output.
Currently, apart from agriculture, the main economic focus of the Blue Dragon Kingdom is the equal importance of industry, farming, and comrce, with industry and comrce even surpassing agriculture in certain aspects.
Although there is now a vigorous agricultural production underway in the original areas of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, making developnt incredibly rapid,
in terms of economic volu, the scale of industry and comrce still far exceeds that of agriculture!
