But Li Er couldn't remember exactly what Li Sheng was talking about. But what Li Er remembered clearly was that Li Sheng did mention the word "universal" several times - it was just that something was universal, but
I didn't hear Li Sheng say anything more.
This strange sentence pattern... makes people feel that Li Sheng wants to say something, but doesn't say it. It was fine before, but now that he heard it again, Li Er couldn't help but ask.
But this time when he asked, Li Sheng smiled awkwardly, scratched the back of his head and said, "Hey... the so-called 'universal' means 'anyone can use it', which means this car..."
Just when I was about to say, "The uses of cars are much wider than what you have here", after all, in Li Sheng's era... the key economic indicator second only to GDP was "automobile consumption", followed by power generation.
Quantity, etc., many economic experts believe that this thing is the real hard-core indicator for measuring economic level.
Of course... this kind of data is still too far away for Datang at this stage, but what Li Sheng wants to say now is not this, but...
"In short, this internal combustion engine car must be a good thing, you just need to know it. As for how Datang will use it... I can only suggest that you implement a dual-track system!"
"Dual-track system?"
Li Er and others couldn't help but be startled when they heard this. Another new word came out of Li Sheng's mouth this time... and this new word was not the same as before. It was really confusing as soon as he heard it. Double track
What does zhizhi mean?
But then Li Sheng also talked about it, what this means...
The words were spoken to Lao Li and the British Duke Li Ji at the same time. As for the meaning Li Sheng wanted to express, of course, it was for both the court and the people to do it, and work together.
As for why this is the case... Li Er and others don't quite understand, but it's not that they don't understand, it's that they never thought that this kind of thing would become a problem.
First of all, since this car has extremely high military value that can be seen with the naked eye, how could the imperial court not buy it? And it is obvious that such an extremely valuable thing will be available to the private sector.
Is this a specific term?
However, when Li Er, Wei Zheng and other ministers looked at each other, Li Sheng really gave a serious reason. As for the reason... it is also simple. First of all, such urgent things cannot be left to the private sector -
Otherwise, the Tang Dynasty will need to fight in the future. This group of merchants - Li Sheng has no prejudice against the existence of merchants, but he really knows that merchants have no bottom line. In Li Sheng's world line, during the Anglo-Nigerian War,
The Netherlands was still a sea coachman, almost in the same position as the current "World Police" - this is no joke, among the East Tianzhu companies in several countries, the Netherlands' East Tianzhu Company is really ranked first, and
The strength level of its navy... Think about it, there were countless naval powers in the Age of Discovery, but the Netherlands Navy has been dealing with Zheng Yiguan of the Far East for the longest time. Naturally, it is not difficult to guess how powerful the Netherlands Navy is.
.pity……
Such a powerful Netherlands Empire also encountered a backstab in the decisive naval battle against Britain. Businessmen in the country frantically bought bonds issued by the British Empire for temporary gains and remained indifferent to the national crisis. This eventually led to the fall of the dynasty and the beginning of the British Empire.
rise.
And now...
Although Li Sheng wanted to be a bastard, it was true that China's industrial and commercial industries were starting up now, so he naturally had to send a signal, at least to remind the empire to avoid some obvious pitfalls...
Of course, Li Sheng didn't directly talk about Great Britain and the Netherlands - because these two countries already existed. Li Sheng didn't want to blow himself up, so of course he changed the word "bond" to another name, and...
Delan and Great Britain were replaced by the Inca Empire and the Aztec Empire... Anyway, no one can verify this.
Li Sheng reminded him that he was talking to Li Ji - because this guy is a high official in the imperial court, it is easier to talk to him. As for whether it will be useful... it is his own choice to speak, and it does not matter whether anyone listens to him.
It's your choice.
And actually...
Li Sheng talked about state affairs in such a serious manner, and Li Ji was really a little panicked... How could he, a military general, talk about such extremely important state affairs? He couldn't help but glance at Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui and others aside.
While the speaker was intentional, some of the listeners were unintentional, and some of the listeners were still paying attention. Li Er, Wei Zheng and others all looked stern, and even turned a bit pale - if this is true, then it is indeed true.
…
but……
As we all know, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui are all talented people. As mentioned above, Li Er himself followed his father for thousands of miles and read thousands of books at the age of ten. His life experience was as rough as Naruto's.
Pin. Such a group of people...the depth of their thoughts is incomparable to ordinary people. But as soon as Li Sheng finished speaking...
They also quickly noticed the crux of the problem.
The key lies in people. In fact... merchants are ruthless. This is common sense in China and is not new. But according to Li Sheng... this matter is not simply merchants being ruthless.
But these merchants... all started out by trade, in other words, they are people who are at home all over the world. Such heroes... Logically speaking, they should be reliable people, just like... Li Er, Wei Zheng and others are still deeply impressed by them.
Shan Xiongxin and Dan are the only two members.
But... Li Sheng's reminder made everyone suddenly realize - people who are at home all over the world...
Doesn't it mean that they don't have any idea of a master in their hearts? In other words...the feelings of this group of people towards the elders behind them are quite weak. Looking at it this way...this does not look like an ordinary businessman, but it gives people a sense of
I feel like the kings of all countries in the Spring and Autumn Period!
And in this case...
Li Er, Wei Zheng and others couldn't help but be shocked. It was tantamount to saying that once business and industry flourished, the Tang Dynasty would gradually fall apart just like the Zhou Dynasty turned into the Warring States Period.
If so, then this would be really exciting...
Thinking about this, Li Er and Wei Zheng couldn't help but feel numb in their scalps. No wonder... Over the past many years, even though the Tang Dynasty's national power has been booming and the people's treasury is abundant, they always feel in their hearts that all this is a bit illusory...
This sense of illusion does not come from fear of powerful foreign enemies such as Rome and Western Turks, nor does it come from fear of changes in social form, but... something more profound and influential. And now Li Sheng's words are really
Li woke up at two o'clock...
I have always felt uneasy, precisely because of this!
Li Sheng didn't say it, but he really didn't notice it. It turns out that this is indeed... In the past, China's world power was mainly in the land, but now... China's wealth has been transferred to commerce and industry. This has already changed the situation.
China's great cause of farming and war had a profound impact. So this authority...
