Chapter 812 It was a nightmare.
"Of course I remember. The memory is very vivid. I will tell you one by one."
Ye Kun thought of his past life, his eyebrows dancing with joy: "One thousand eight hundred years later, China's railways will add up to millions of kilometers. There will also be millions of kilometers of wide and straight asphalt roads. Ordinary families will have cars that can travel two thousand miles a day. Ordinary people will also have mobile phones that can talk to relatives and friends at the ends of the earth..."
Gongsun Erniang listened silently and nodded from time to time.
Ye Kun continued to describe the world before the time travel, and said with a smile: "The economy at that time was highly developed. An ordinary person could buy 100 kilograms of rice, or 100 kilograms of salt, or 100 kilograms of iron with a day's work.
There are endless clothes to wear. Rich people change more than a dozen sets of clothes every year. There are many bars and fast food restaurants on the street, so it is very convenient to eat. There is endless electricity. Every family has a refrigerator, air conditioner and heater, which keeps warm in winter and cool in summer.
Gongsun Erniang asked: "How long did people live at that time?"
“The average life expectancy is 80 years old, and centenarians are common.”
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Because at that time, medicine was highly developed. Many diseases that cannot be cured now were very simple at that time. A rural doctor could solve them.
For example, if you have colic, which is appendicitis, you can have surgery to remove the appendix directly."
Gongsun Erniang smiled and said, "Our Zhuo County hospital can now perform surgery. We have performed many appendicitis surgeries, and more than half of the patients survived."
The best hospitals in Zhuo County, and even the big hospitals in the major secondary capitals, have performed many appendectomy operations and caesarean sections.
But the success rate of the operation is appalling.
Taking appendicitis as an example, first of all, being able to accurately diagnose the condition is a big challenge.
Some patients suffer from enteritis or pain in other abdominal organs, which are mistakenly diagnosed as appendicitis and require surgery.
When I opened my stomach, I was stunned.
In some cases, it is indeed appendicitis, and the appendix can be successfully removed after surgery, but it may cause heavy bleeding and death.
Most surgical patients die due to wound infection and complications.
Less than 30 percent of surgeries are truly successful.
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Junior sister, our current appendicitis surgery has a success rate of more than 20%. We still need the best hospital and the best doctor.
But a hundred years later, appendicitis and caesarean sections can be performed in ordinary township hospitals. Moreover, the success rate is 99%! "
Gongsun Erniang was very surprised: "The success rate of surgery in a township hospital is 99%?"
"Yes, absolutely."
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Appendicitis, caesarean section, bone grafting and the like were all minor surgeries at that time. There were even more serious surgeries, such as replacing the patient's diseased organs, such as liver transplants, kidney transplants, heart transplants... whatever was broken, they would be replaced. Mom no longer had to worry about me getting sick!"
Gongsun Erniang's eyes widened: "So, you treat people like machines, and replace parts when they break?"
"This analogy is very appropriate. With future scientific progress, humans will be analyzed as clearly as machines." Ye Kun thought for a moment and said:
“At that time, humans will be able to ride rockets into space, land on the moon and Mars, and even go beyond the solar system and explore deeper into the universe.”
Gongsun Erniang was so amazed by Ye Kun's long talk that her eyes stopped moving. She just stared blankly, fascinated.
Although she is a disciple of the Mohist school, has a spirit of scientific research, and has better vision than most people, she is no match for Ye Kun, the cheater.
Ye Kun smiled and said, "Do you have anything else to ask about the world in my dream, Junior Sister?"
"Brother, let me think about it..."
Gongsun Erniang pondered and asked, "Did the Earth belong to China at that time?"
"Junior sister, I was just about to say this."
Ye Kun sighed and said, "In my dream world, China's history is full of disasters. Several times, the Chinese regime was overthrown by foreign races. The Hu people in the north occupied the nine provinces of China several times, each time for hundreds of years. The descendants of Yan and Huang lived a very hard life and were almost exterminated.
So I spared no effort to expand overseas, fearing that the Chinese people would repeat the tragedy in my dream. "
Gongsun Erniang was shocked: "In your dream, China was unable to defeat the Hu people and was destroyed? And was ruled for hundreds of years?"
"This is normal." Ye Kun smiled bitterly:
"The nomadic peoples in the north ride horses, graze and hunt every day, and almost every man is a natural warrior. We Chinese are an agricultural nation, not good at horse fighting, and we don't have good pastures and horse farms.
In the era of cold weapons, the combat effectiveness of nomadic cavalry far exceeded that of our peasant soldiers. Since the Warring States Period, we Chinese have begun to build the Great Wall in the face of invasions from the north.
Even the first emperor of the previous dynasty, who annexed the six kingdoms and unified the world, relied on the Great Wall to resist the cavalry from the north. Before Emperor Wu, the Chinese sent princesses to the Xiongnu many times in exchange for marriage and money.
It was not until the reign of Emperor Wu that the country became strong enough to mobilize the entire nation to conquer the Xiongnu, inflicting heavy damage on them and ushering in two hundred years of peace.
Gongsun Erniang nodded: "No wonder after Senior Brother unified the Nine Provinces, he was determined to kill Gongsun Mu of Liaodong and Tianxian Chanyu of the Xiongnu. It turns out... Senior Brother had such a nightmare."
"I hope that the Chinese people, the descendants of Yan and Huang, will always be strong, and never again experience the tragic events that I dreamed of."
Ye Kun's eyes became firm again: "I completely wiped out the Xiongnu, immigrated Han people there to graze, and strengthened cultural propaganda. From now on, the North will be full of Han people, and there will be no more threats of genocide.
We must also take over the Mediterranean area. Otherwise, the natural conditions there are good, and it is easy for civilization to emerge, which will in turn oppress our Chinese people.”
Gongsun Erniang smiled and said, "Brother, you have a vision that can see into the future. Fine, I will support your great cause. Wherever you fight, I will recruit Mohist disciples!"
"Thank you for your support, Junior Sister!"
Ye Kun laughed.
Gongsun Erniang stood up and prepared to leave.
Ye Kun suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Junior Sister, what are the names of the two wealthy businessmen in the Jinling Competition of Wealth that you mentioned?"
Gongsun Erniang thought for a moment and said, "One is Zhang Laiwang, and the other is Wang Youbao."
"Haha, just hearing the name, he must be a rich man." Ye Kun couldn't help but laugh, and said, "Wait for me to give the order and have Jinling arrest these two guys. I will personally interrogate them."
Gongsun Erniang pondered and said, "Brother, this is not appropriate. These two wealthy businessmen don't seem to have committed any crime, they are just a little ostentatious."
Ye Kun thought for a moment and said, "Then invite them over. Anyway, when I see such ostentatious rich people, I can't help but want to blackmail them."
Gongsun Erniang chuckled: "It's okay to blackmail, but don't go too far, so as not to undermine the confidence of private merchants. Especially the seafaring merchants, once they are hit, it will affect the private shipping industry."
