Chapter 1903 The Tang Dynasty may directly perish!
In fact, King Luo Bin's questioning was still a little unclear and unclear as the previous question, but this time the meaning was much more obvious. It was just worry anyway!
When King Luo Bin said this, Chai Shao did not speak immediately, but the frown on his face became a little deeper.
Although it seems a bit hasty for King Luo Bin to ask so bluntly, then maybe His Royal Highness the Holy King plans to run the maritime business for a long time?
There are indeed bad possibilities and consequences, but if His Royal Highness is really determined, and you ask directly like this, no matter what your intentions are, the way you behave and speak today will be detrimental to you in the future.
Good people without a city government are not all harmful to others and themselves...Chai Shao, as a senior,
The first reaction in my mind was this. Seniors - especially real seniors, not just old Jianghu. The thoughts of these people are highly similar, no matter what era.
However, Chai Shao did not directly interrupt King Luo Bin after all, because the doubts in Chai Shao's heart were also quite strong.
Does such a good thing not have some negative effects?
It’s really uneasy to think about it!
Therefore, although I feel that it is not a good idea for King Luo Bin to ask this, or it is okay to ask, it is best not to ask Li Sheng so directly - after all, Li Sheng's status is still too high now.
On the surface, the title and status are high, but the invisible reputation is even higher.
But in the end, Chai Shao did not interrupt, and together with King Luo Bin, he turned his doubtful eyes to Li Sheng.
Li Sheng seemed to ignore the two glances and continued happily,
"Such an industrial transfer will of course cause problems in the future... After the development of sea routes, the Ottomans in Europe were finished. However."
"This kind of thing, after all, is only a matter of days. There are countless overseas territories. Compared with all the countries in the world, the Tang Dynasty cannot be said to be a drop in the ocean, but it can certainly only be regarded as a corner. And since the real situation of China is like this, do you two think that
With so many territories overseas, how can the children of China not go out and get involved?"
Although he was stared at by two doubtful eyes, and still...
It is related to a major conflict in the entire China. Most people would have turned livid when being questioned like this. However, Li Sheng's casual and seemingly casual reply immediately sent Chai Shao down. King Luo Bin, the old man and the young man, were stunned by the question.
.
The two people's expressions suddenly froze.
It should have been Li Sheng who was frozen, but now it was indeed these two maritime elites of the Tang Dynasty whose faces were frozen.
What Li Sheng means... is actually very obvious.
——Of course I know that Qiongzhou Island will one day become richer than Chang'an, which may cause problems, and they are major problems, and they are so major that even Emperor Li Er may not be able to deal with them.
But so what? What do you have to say? It’s impossible to cancel this matter anyway.
Just like drinking water, lifting a cup from the table requires a lot of effort and wears out muscles and bones. If you are afraid of problems when doing anything, then it is best to just lie down and wait for death. Isn't this the easiest way?
Li Sheng asked this question.
King Luo Bin and Chai Shao were startled for a moment, and the atmosphere at the originally relaxed banquet suddenly became awkward, but then the old man and the young man looked at each other.
Unexpectedly, everyone was stunned!
I instantly understood that what Li Sheng said was actually right.
No, to be precise, this matter is not about "right" or "wrong", but rather like a traveler walking in the mist in the forest, the mountains and fields are vast and deep, but there is only a road full of thorns in front of him.
At this time, it may be wrong to take this road, but there is no other way to go!
Of course, it is not that there is no other way to go. For Chai Shao and King Luo Bin, other options do exist and they are real.
This option is of course to give up the expansion of overseas territories, directly stop opening the sea, and stop all military protection and infrastructure services for maritime merchants engaged in maritime trade, as well as various undertakings surrounding the sea.
Including things like the West Lake Shipyard, it will naturally be completely eliminated and all used to build other things. Today it can be used to build advanced ships that can ride the wind and waves, and then it can naturally be used tomorrow.
Make something else - anyway, the factory is right here, so making something is not making anything?
It would be best to change even the small workshops that make cables and produce high-end carriages. As for why China still needs high-end carriages after having steam trains? This is not actually a problem. After all, no matter how efficient the steam train is,
Not as comfortable as a horse-drawn carriage.
Then again, even the main workshops for building ocean-going ships have been completely renovated. What's the point of leaving some small workshops for making cables?
It is meaningless. First of all, it has no economic significance, so of course it cannot be left. Secondly, other than economic, more noble meanings no longer exist.
After all, the great cause of opening up the sea itself is already over.
originally.
The spark in the minds of King Luo Bin and Chai Shao had just appeared, and they began to reflect on the current situation of the Tang Dynasty, and this kind of reflection.
This is not the kind of reflection made by the great Confucian scholars. This is the spontaneous, real and meaningful reflection of the loyal people of the Tang Dynasty, to think about the future destiny of the Tang Dynasty, and to think about the vast number of people in China under the surface of the Tang Dynasty.
Destiny, but as soon as Li Sheng said these words.
Chai Shao and King Luo Bin, no matter how prestigious these two people were in the army or how they frightened the enemy on the battlefield, at this moment they could not help but break out in cold sweat.
Yes.
As Li Sheng said, everyone will definitely need some "meaning" to survive, otherwise they will not be able to shield themselves from the instinct of childishness and self-destruction. And this meaning is not a fictitious thing.
This meaning has been real since ancient times.
It is the future, it is the expectation.
Later generations of great philosophers in the economic field once said that expectations are more valuable than gold.
There is no need for some "big bull" to point out the world. It is not difficult for ordinary people to refer to their own life experience and understand that people do not need so many "possessions" in life, but people must have some "thinking" in order to live.
, regardless of men and women, whether rich or poor, they are all the same.
As an empire, the Tang Dynasty is the same as an individual. If it opens the sea, it will be really bad.
Chai Shao and King Luo Bin were reminded of this by Li Sheng, and a very terrifying picture suddenly appeared in their minds. This matter is simply not an ordinary abnormality, because by that time, the Tang Dynasty may directly perish!
