Chapter 169 The Importance of Jizhou


Chapter 169 The Importance of Jizhou

Everyone’s eyes followed Li Nian’s wooden stick and fell on that area of ​​the map. The area was not big, but what Li Nian said was very serious, which shows that this place is important. The importance in Li Shangshu's heart.

Li Niandao: "There is a thing here, which can be called 'petroleum', or 'stone oil', 'ground grease', 'stone paint'... This thing, oil, is located in Gaonu County, Shangjun County, Daqin Also, it is flammable even if placed in water "It can also be burned."

Hearing this, a young man asked: "Since I have Da Qin, why do I need to go to this continent again?"

As soon as this question was asked, the young man asked. Then I knew he asked a stupid question.

There must be a lot of oil in this place. Even Daqin also has oil, but when it comes to using it, oil from other places is available. Of course, it is better to use oil from other places first.

As expected, Li Nian's answer was: "The oil reserves here are extremely large, almost the largest in the world, far better than the Great Qin. If it can be mined, it can supply the needs of the Great Qin for hundreds or hundreds of years in the future. This thing is What is necessary for the future prosperity of our Great Qin will be needed in many aspects.”

Everyone doesn’t understand what its magical use is and where it needs to be used.

Before they asked, Li Nian took the initiative and said: "This thing will be used in all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation!"

This sentence alone established the importance of oil in the minds of the ministers. , but I still don’t understand. Even if this thing can be turned into clothes and food, what does it have to do with housing and transportation?

However, Ying Zheng thought of the scenes of future generations that Li Nian had shown him. The planes flying in the sky, the cars shuttling through the city, and the giant boats sailing on the boundless blue waves might be related to this oil. The development to that level and the creation of these strange objects are also related to this object.

Ying Zheng thought on a deeper level that the future generations where this kid Li Nian came from were not only the country of China in later generations, but also many countries.

This guy is talking about this oil so seriously now. Even when he mentioned those gold and silver mines before, I have never seen this guy behave like this...I am afraid that all the countries in the future are also competing for this oil. .

Even the countries of later generations are competing for it, which shows that this oil is definitely a top-notch good thing. It seems that as this guy said, it is necessary to control this area as much as possible, but this place is not far away from the Qin Dynasty. Recently, it is definitely not possible now, but this matter must be recorded.

Li Nian continued: "There are also countries here. The local people's appearance mainly has high eyebrows and deep eyes, aquiline noses, deep eye sockets, long faces, thick beards and hair, hot temperatures, drought and little rain, day and night There is a huge difference between cold and heat, and the terrain is mainly plateaus and mountains. Although there are plains, there are not many. ”

Several major empires in later generations have had trouble here and have not been able to actually control it, because there are indeed many mountains. If you can't win, you won't be able to get into the mountain dens. If you relax your vigilance, and then suddenly jump out to give you a shuttle, anyway, we will just If your feet are not afraid of wearing shoes, if you have the skills, come and show off with me.

Even if it is still early, it is not easy for Da Qin to control this place, but the rich oil resources in this place are really not under its control, so it cannot sleep.

Thinking of certain things in future generations, Li Nian specially warned: "There is a group of people here who believe that they are God's chosen people, and everyone else is God's abandoned people. God is the supreme god they believe in, the omniscient, omnipotent, and the creator of the world. . ”

Hearing Li Nian’s words, “I think I am God’s chosen people, and everyone else is God’s abandoned people,” everyone frowned. It’s such an arrogant nation, just put a label on their face. , and belittling other people.

“They think that they, God’s chosen people, are better than other people and deserve to enjoy everything in the world. For example, if we help them when they are in trouble, not only will they not be grateful, but they will think that we are helping them. Waiting is the right thing to do, it is God’s will.”

"For another example, if they are wandering and we give them a piece of land to live in, they will not be grateful. Instead, they will think that the land given is too small, ask for more from us, and even think that the land of Da Qin is theirs. , and then expelled the people of Qin Dynasty and occupied a large area. "Everyone's eyes were opened. Chun Yuyue, who had the highest level of private morality present, couldn't help but said: "There is such a shameless tribe in the world. How are they different from animals?"

Although this tribe does not seem to be barbaric or ignorant. , but this behavior seems to be more disgusting than barbarism and ignorance.

It's so shameless, and this is not just one person, but the entire clan. If this group of people gains power, they will go wild and kill other people.

If Da Qin encounters this clan in the future, he must be very careful and not be confused by them.

A person who does not know how to be grateful, but thinks that the kindness of others is what he deserves, is like a beast that is not familiar with it. Who knows when it will bite back?

"Jizhou has a large population. According to what Li heard, there may be tens of millions of people. The country here is mostly influenced by the country of Zhuzhou..."

There are also tens of millions of people in the outer regions. , the ministers were also quite surprised.

A minister looked at the map, caught one point in Li Nian's words, and said: "When talking about Egypt before, Li Shangshu once said that Ptolemy in Egypt was built by the people of Zhuzhou. At this moment Also, could it be the same country? ”
Li Nian nodded and said: "It is indeed the same country. This country is called Macedonia. It reached its peak more than a hundred years ago and successively occupied the entire territory of Egypt, annexed the Persian Empire, and Alexander's army went directly to Yangzhou (India). ”

Li Nian took a wooden stick and drew on the map, roughly drawing the land that Macedonia occupied more than a hundred years ago.

Seeing the territory drawn by Li Nian, Ying Zheng and the ministers all stared at each other. This territory covers an area several times the size of the Qin Dynasty, and spans the three continents of Zhu, Ji, and He.

Compared to this, what is Da Qin? You have just unified a land of six countries, but you can't even get out of your own continent, and you can't even be considered a transcontinental empire. What is there to be proud of?

Although the Shenzhou is a bit big, and Macedonia happens to be close to the intersection of three continents, so it can span the three continents at the same time, if Da Qin is placed in that position, it will definitely not be inferior to that. Macedonia is even more capable of winning, but it still frustrates the ministers.

But then a blazing fire ignited in the hearts of the ministers. If a foreign country can do this, can they and others not be able to do this?

We must accomplish greater achievements than that of Macedonia!

After destroying the six kingdoms and unifying the world, not only Yingzheng developed a slack mentality, but also the ministers of the Qin Dynasty, so some ministers retired or ran away.

After all, the goal has been achieved, and Emperor Qin is about to become difficult to deal with. Why not seize the opportunity and run away?

Taking the initiative to retire can also preserve your majesty’s favor, without losing your glory.

'Your Majesty called Li Shangshu to come to court today. His intention was not just to let him participate in the court meeting for the first time and become familiar with us, but also to inform us through Li Shangshu... The talk is actually based on His Majesty’s instructions! ’

It is not ruled out that some of the ministers are not very clever, but most of them are smart people, and smart people always like to think too much and feel that they have figured it out.
