Li Shengzheng was wondering if there was something wrong with the reaction of Li Er and others, maybe there was something wrong with their thinking? Then he saw that among these guys, Du Ruhui didn't know what he had discovered, and suddenly his face froze.
"Sir, this..."
Du Ruhui's face was extremely pale.
His eyes were straight, like a zombie.
His eyes were fixed on Li Sheng's table, as if he would never close his eyes...
This expression frightened Li Sheng directly, "No, Lao Du... what's going on with you?"
"Are you okay? Are you suffering from heat stroke?"
It was already the fourth year of Zhenguan, and it was already summer. Li Sheng was indeed a little worried about this.
When he said this, Li Er and others also turned their heads in confusion. They were also frightened by this look. Du Ruhui's expression could no longer be described as "possessed", it was almost in a state of "possessed"...
However, Du Ruhui himself turned a blind eye to Li Sheng's inquiry and the looks of others, and just stared at the things on Li Sheng's table.
He stammered and asked, "Sir, this picture...is it a sea chart?"
Du Ruhui's face was filled with shock!
He can barely even speak.
When he asked this question, Li Er, Wei Zheng and others immediately realized, yes, this old boy Du Ruhui is also a human spirit, why did he suddenly lose his composure? What did he see...
Following Du Ruhui's gaze, the three of them, Li Er, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, were also stunned.
There was a nautical chart on Li Sheng's desk!
To be precise, it is a very detailed map of Eurasia and America that covers a large area of the ocean, or a map of the Pacific and Indian Oceans that includes two major continents.
Such a big map...
Li Er, Wei Zheng and the others have actually seen each other before, but the problem is that there are various markings on the map.
Extremely detailed annotations!
The contents are all various marks, such as the estimated population of a certain city, and then what level of military strength is estimated, A, B, C and D? Then there are ports...
The key is the port, which is marked in more detail!
Like population, military and other attributes, they are all marked according to the ratings of A, B, C and D.
The entire map is very large and looks extremely shocking.
And such a large map is full of details and annotations, and there are also annotations below, such as how strong the representatives of Class A are in military terms, what is the approximate level of Bing and Ding, and then the quality of the port, etc...
The key is not only these, but also the labels on the products!
Li Er, Wei Zheng and others were simply shocked to see such a detailed map, because...
When Du Ruhui saw this map for the first time, he immediately thought of...
The imperial army of the Tang Dynasty wanted to break out of China and go to the vast world to find resources, so first they had to...
People first have to go out, but how to go? When going to sea, you must take a boat.
But sailing on the sea is not easy, so Li Er, Wei Zheng, and this group of people... although they are all anxious about the country and the people, they want to immediately transport mountains and seas of various resources to the Tang Dynasty.
But the problem is that the sea route is really difficult to travel. At the most serious level, it means that the huge national power is invested and cannot support the construction of a fleet that can travel around the world. At the most small level, the broken ships of this period have entered the ocean, let alone opening up the new continent.
Thank God for feeding the fish...
But if there are various ports, bases, and various places where supplies can be provided along the way to provide support, then the fleet can take action!
It's the same as on land. It's not easy to travel far away, but it's actually good if you can find a place to rest and tiptoe along the way.
However, it is not easy to achieve this, because the construction of the station base and seaport along the way also requires huge investment of manpower and material resources.
Of course, you can also consider finding inns and ports directly in the local tribes, countries and regions to rest. In this way, everything will progress much faster——
Because although the overseas base group has not yet been built, the profits from sea trade can start running first!
And the profits can be made, which means that the construction costs are significantly reduced invisibly - because these bases are built for the profits of sea trade, exporting the talents of Chinese people to manufacture various products, and then collecting resources.
This profit can be obtained before the construction of overseas bases, which is equivalent to making profits first and then raising capital when doing business - the terrible thing is that this business is almost empty-handed.
And the same is true now. If we can directly contact many ports and supply stations overseas, then go to sea to find resources, export goods, and establish cycles... this big business can also become almost a five-year business!
That’s exciting. Not only does the Tang Dynasty want to prosper, but it also wants to get rich overnight...
How could Li Er not be excited?
I'm almost crazy with excitement!
It feels like flying.
Everyone was petrified!
When he turned around to look at Li Sheng, when he looked again this time, everyone's eyes were completely different.
Li Sheng is so awesome at being able to get this kind of super valuable information...
The key is this idea.
If they hadn't seen this chart, how would Li Er and the others have thought of it...
In fact, we can use the many foreign cities that exist in many lands outside China to dock the fleet of China?
So this is the value of elite players, and Li Er is so excited that he is about to explode.
At this moment, Li Er, Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling turned to look at Li Sheng with pale faces. Their hearts were extremely shocked, but there was only one question...
"Sir, this picture... is a sea chart, right?"
What if this is not a sea map, but a painting drawn by Li Sheng? You must know that Li Sheng's talent is quite impressive, although he seems to have never painted before...
But this does not affect the nervousness of Li Er and the others. After all, if this map is really a sea map, its value will be too high. Who wouldn't worry about whether their excitement will be in vain when encountering such a thing? They must confirm it.
"Of course it is..."
Li Sheng replied calmly and casually without any ink marks.
When he said this, Li Er and others took a deep breath.
At this moment, Li Er, Wei Zheng... the most outstanding group of people in the Tang Dynasty, just two words passed through their minds at the same time...
It’s done.
It’s done... it’s done!
But Li Er and the others still didn't dare to rest assured, "Sir, where did this information come from? If this... this thing is true, its value would be very... very huge..."
Li Erqi and Ai Ai compared each other and kept saying one sentence for a long time. It was not because of his stuttering, but because he was really nervous... so nervous!
But Li Sheng nodded directly.
"This information was obtained from some big food merchants in Hangzhou. Of course it is true..."
