Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1038
[Chapter 663]
“Cuckoo, do you think they can develop a shotgun with even methods?” Zhang Xiaobao didn’t answer Li Longji’s question directly, but still shouted at Cuckoo.
“Impossible, the blueprint we sent is not a gun that is loaded from the back, but the gunpowder is pressed from the front, and then the bullet is pressed, and the back is just a paper cannon as a primer.
If it really follows the blueprint For production, when the gun is finished and shot twice, the gun must be pierced with a clear rod, otherwise, if you continue to shoot, the bullets will not know where to go.”
Wang Juan had not made a sound just now, she knew Zhang Xiaobao deliberately thought that Li Longji came to disturb the world of the two.
“Bingxia, no.” Zhang Xiaobao replied to Li Longji.
“I heard that, since they can’t, how could they be willing to make it? Besides, they made it, almost beating people, hunting or something is not bad, don’t you worry that they are forces from other countries?”
Li Longji turned his head and glared at Zhang Xiaobao At a glance, unfortunately Zhang Xiaobao turned his back to him and didn’t see it.
“I hope they are powers of other countries, otherwise, what are the previous series of domestic and military arrangements between Juanjuan and I? They come to toss. If I don’t toss them, it won’t be cheap for them.”
Zhang Xiaobao said easily Then, he picked up a piece of corn, and sent it to Wang Juan’s mouth: “Cuckoo, eat one.”
Li Longji threw the paper: “Xiaobao, can you still respect me? I asked you what they made. A pile of guns, at critical moments, are also very useful, such as when charging.”
Zhang Xiaobao then turned around with the chair.
The body also sat upright, looking like a report, and said: “Yes, even a shotgun has its function, not to mention a gunpowder-assisted shotgun, even a slingshot is also lethal.
However, if there are those made of steel If it is a shotgun, it is better to make bows and crossbows. The minister hopes that they are forces of other countries, as long as they really dare to follow the ideas designed by the minister.
First, they have to look for iron ore. If there is no iron ore, where can they get iron tools?
The ministers can even tell them the method of prospecting by other means.
Secondly, they can’t always buy my Datang’s firecrackers. It’s inconvenient to transport. When the firecrackers are transported in wet conditions and rainy days, the gunpowder inside will be damp, and then tearing the paper outside will cause great loss.
Therefore, they can only find gunpowder by themselves. It is very simple, saltpeter, charcoal and sulfur. As for whether they can purify it well, it is not a matter for the ministers. Maybe they can make more powerful gunpowder.
”
Seeing Zhang Xiaobao talking seriously, Li Longji felt very uncomfortable. After thinking about it carefully, it turned out that he was used to Zhang Xiaobao’s previous way of speaking.
Thinking of this, Li Longji smiled: “Tell me well, the same as before. , did you know that you’re encouraging them to do their research, in case they learn something?
”
They can’t learn it. As long as they go to look for mines, the ministers can relax easily. Prospecting for mines is very tiring. I pondered the various minerals in the Tang Dynasty together, and I was still able to determine the location. I don’t remember many other places, I only remember two, one is oil and the other is natural gas mine.
We Datang own mine.
For the railway, a large-scale steelmaking is underway across the country.
The technology was originally backward, and the loss in various places was very large. Every time a piece of ore was dug out, I felt like a piece of meat was gouged out from my body.
When the railway is completed, I will immediately seal all the mines, and no one is allowed to dig. Whoever digs is the sinner of my Tang Dynasty. He will be punished for treason and must be kept for my grandson and grandson’s. Grandchildren…………, many grandchildren.
I don’t know where the outside is. It’s too laborious to find, so let them find it. When they find it, we go to occupy it, which saves a lot of time.
Zhang Xiaobao piled back again ,
talking lazily about his plans.
Wang Juan nodded along beside her. She also felt distressed that the Tang Dynasty was dug up. When she was in school, her geography textbook would also introduce the country. Resources.
However, most of the time, what she sees is that the book says what was there in a certain place, what is the function of this thing, what has been found in a certain place, what is the reserve, and when was it mined .
When he thought about why it was mined at that time, and what was mined in exchange for the money, Wang Juan felt very annoyed.
Therefore, like Zhang Xiaobao, she cherishes the things of her country very much, and she doesn’t need it if she can, so that after many years, the children will see the same textbooks as she once saw.
She hopes that future generations will be taught world geography, and then say that there is something in a certain place, but it has been dug up by Datang. If you want to see the real thing, people from many countries will send people to Datang to buy a specimen, okay Give their kids back to school again.
When she wanted to see it, the children saw in their textbooks how much oil was in a certain place, and then one cubic meter of oil could be replaced with a big plastic bag of Datang, because Datang’s advanced technology .
But in order to build the railway, Datang carried out the same mining as during the Great Leap Forward. She waited for the end to end soon, and then closed the mine together with Zhang Xiaobao, and did not mine again.
“Oh yes, it’s hard for us to find mines in other places. I agreed and let them find them by themselves, and then we go to occupy them. It’s better to teach them some ways. I now think that the Tang Dynasty is too poor to continue. Ruining the family.”
Li Longji also nodded in agreement, he didn’t feel bad about digging other people’s mines, and he also heard Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan say that Datang’s iron ore is not very good, and there are better ones elsewhere, not only The yield is high, and the proportion of iron is also large.
Thinking of this, Li Longji began to worry, and asked Zhang Xiaobao: “Xiaobao, last time you and Juanjuan told me that you should take back the good things from other countries, use some of them first, and store some of them. I suddenly thought, where will I put it after it is shipped back?
Also, you let the merchants go overseas and other places on the land to help with the transportation. Wouldn’t it create a large number of rich merchants by then? If people have money Too much. The pursuit is not just money.
The difference between you and Juanjuan is to make money for Datang. After they make money, they may have other thoughts, such as finding a place outside and never coming back, what should I do?
After all, they are from the Tang Dynasty. They researched the things they used and mastered what technology. When the time came, they would go far away to fight against the Tang Dynasty together with the local people, asking for the establishment of a country or something. Could I send troops to fight?
Can’t call.
”
Li Longji thought of the key question, that is long-term stability and long-term stability, how can there be only one Tang Dynasty problem from generation to generation.
Zhang Xiaobao has a headache, who knows what will happen in the future, maybe he encounters a prodigal political elite, what will happen then? It is possible that the sun never sets in the former UK. Later, didn’t the colonies become independent?
No colonization. If the development is slow, the colonization will cause people to become independent again, which is unpredictable.
“Cuckoo, you What can you say?” Zhang Xiaobao couldn’t think of a good solution, so he just asked Wang Juan.
Regarding this question, Wang Juan was also confused and said that the general trend of the world, if it is divided for a long time, it will be united, and if it is united for a long time, it will be divided. All the people were killed, and only the people of the Tang Dynasty were left, waiting for the number of people in the Tang Dynasty
. Power, thereby encouraging the local people to become independent.
For a time, the three of them were silent, Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao thought hard, Li Longji couldn’t even think about it, it was too far away, and his knowledge was far less than Zhang Xiaobao and the two.
After a while, Zhang Xiaobao spoke first.
“I think that the businessmen who go out should be told not to bring their family members, but to keep their family members, and the troops stationed in other places in the future, they can’t bring their wives too. Children go over so that you can try to keep them from staying outside.
And there is a limit. For example, three years is a period of rotation. If you stay outside for three years and let you come back, you must come back. Otherwise, you will be considered to be rebelling, and you will be sent to arrest.
”
Wang Juan held a different opinion: “If people are looking at local people outside and are going to start a new family, what should you do?”
“Grab it, three years, if you don’t come back by the time, you won’t be able to set up a new family. .” Li Longji still agreed with Zhang Xiaobao’s words.
Wang Juan frowned and said, “If you want me to tell you, it’s too early to worry about this matter. Others can be independent because the Tang Dynasty’s force will be out of reach.
At the same time, the technology in that place has also reached a certain level. Cheng, as long as their force can’t keep up, Datang’s army can rush over with the fastest speed, and they will not be independent.
The people of Datang, when they go outside, want to live with the locals, if someone gets sick, If
they haven’t learned the technology yet, they will naturally think of the medical level of the Tang Dynasty.”
“Right, the speed of science and technology exhibition is faster than the speed of the colony, they will not dare and will not be independent, otherwise the plane will bring soldiers over in a few hours and throw a As soon as a small island disappears, how can they think about independence, and with the emergence of various communication tools. When
they are outside, they can also contact their home at any time, and I Datang, the more advanced the means of transportation. , the world is getting smaller, there is no distance, and it is not enough to want to be independent.
Therefore, we can’t colonize now, wait for the technology exhibition to reach a certain stage, I still believe in my people in China, many colonies finally became independent because of them When I went out, I had no hope of returning to my home country for many years. I
had to reproduce locally. If the transportation was convenient, they would naturally be able to run back and forth. In this way, we will continue to strengthen the development of science and technology.”
Zhang Xiaobao followed Wang Juan .
said the words.
When Li Longji heard it, he could understand sometimes, but sometimes he was confused. He was very puzzled. Listening to Zhang
Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s words, it seemed that the two had experienced this kind of thing.
Is the country already in trouble?
This world is really big, I hope their country will have more and more troubles, so they won’t attack Datang right away.
When Datang’s footsteps catch up, if you want to fight again, it will be too late.
“I know, I will make a decree to tell the businessmen who go out that they are not allowed to find local women to do things like that, especially if they do not have children. If they do have children, they must report them in time. They are allowed to come to the Tang Dynasty together with their descendants and other families.
But the army is absolutely not allowed to do that. Anyone who is not staying in the barracks, goes outside and executes them on the spot. Wait for something to happen.”
Li Longji said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, wanting to hear what they think of this idea.
“Okay, Your Majesty, you can do it, Juanjuan and I will definitely support you.” Zhang Xiaobao then turned the chair back to bask in the sun.
Seeing Zhang Xiaobao’s state, Li Longji got up and walked towards his cabin. He was about to walk around a corner, he stopped suddenly, and shouted to Zhang Xiaobao: “Xiaobao, I plan to have a whole fish feast tonight, you should prepare as soon as possible. ”
I really owe you in my last life.” Zhang Xiaobao said angrily when he saw Li Longji who had disappeared, and then instructed the inner courtyard next to him: “Still stunned? Go catch fish, the whole boat will eat this tonight, I Make a big pot of rice with iron bark.”
Three days later, after Xiaobei’s team slowed down, there was still a long way to go before Jiangzhou.
Zhang Xiaobao’s team here has entered the boundary of Hangzhou.
In order not to disturb the people, Li Longji asked people to greet the local government in advance, and no one was allowed to come out to greet them, nor were the local officials allowed to deliberately clean the sanitation or something. Huang, who dares to paint green paint on the tree, grab it and hit the board.
This is what Zhang Xiaobao thought. Everyone can paint mountains. What if the officials become smarter because of the improvement of technology, what if they think of painting?
The local officials didn’t dare to paint the trees, but the emperor’s decree provided them with new ideas. It turns out that this can be done. In the future, when meeting the officials above, can we draw inferences from one case to another?
For example, officials who inspect livestock and poultry come down, temporarily buy some from other places, put them in the surname’s home, and then take them back after the officials leave?
Zhang Xiaobao didn’t know what the officials thought. Anyway, there will be a few batches of inspectors sent by the capital in the future. If the place can make trouble, just do it.
Zhang Xiaobao thought about whether he wanted to appear with Li Longji, or should he appear first, if the former, his grandfather would probably be very embarrassed when he faced him. Once wearing the official uniform, his status would be low. If he chose the latter, What about godfather?
Do you want to go with yourself first, the identity is not easy to get.
“Cuanjuan, what should I do? You should have experience.” Zhang Xiaobao asked Wangjuan for advice.
“You are yours, your godfather is your godfather, and it’s not that your grandfather doesn’t know Gao Lishi. They have their own contacts. Let’s go down first, change boats, or half an hour earlier.”
Wang Juan doesn’t care about this at all .
, said casually.
“Okay, hey~! We have to kowtow again, Li Longji, let’s not kowtow, we have to kowtow with my grandfather who hasn’t seen each other for many years.” Zhang Xiaobao said, and changed boats with Wang Juan, and the two got a boat. , making people row and fly like an arrow towards the dock in Hangzhou.
