When Li Sheng said this, everyone was suddenly puzzled.
What this means is...
For a while, I really couldn't understand it.
But after thinking for a while, everyone understood. What Li Sheng meant was to use money to solve it?
But this...
I thought about it for a while.
Everyone felt that they had no idea.
It is said that during the Western Jin Dynasty, there was a minister named Jiang Tong. Because at that time, a large number of Hu people from the border areas were moved to the territory of the Western Jin Dynasty to farm and serve as troops, so he published a "Lun on Migration to the Rong", asking the court to be careful, and there was no treatment for the Hu people.
The description is as follows: Rong Di is strong and ruthless, and has caused troubles throughout the ages.
What does it mean? It means that barbarians have grown up on horses since ancient times, and they are all people with extremely strong personalities.
It was too late for the Han to resist these unfaithful people - think about how many losses the Han suffered at the hands of the Huns before the two generals Wei and Huo appeared. At this time, the Three Kingdoms War had just ended, and the imperial court moved a large number of these people to the country.
I'm afraid there's something wrong with this.
At that time, due to various reasons, this article on migration to the Rong was not taken seriously, but later the problems gradually emerged.
In short, the elites of the Tang Dynasty during this period were all from Guanlong. During the hundreds of years in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, they not only had to face civil strife, but were also the front line against the barbarians. They were very familiar with the characteristics of these barbarians.
And based on Yu Shinan, Li Ji, Yuchi Laomo and others' understanding of the Hu people, spending money to buy peace is absolutely asking for trouble, because these Hu people are not satisfied with money at all, and they are not like the Han people.
Give me a face and I will give you a face, so that it will be easier for everyone to deal with you in the future.
In the world of barbarians on the grassland, you are an idiot if you give me a gift today. I don’t care about your bullshit face. As for what to say if we break up and meet tomorrow, no one will consider that. In the world of barbarians,
There is only one thing: if you don’t like it, then do it.
Therefore, everyone did not need to analyze it carefully. They could not help but shake their heads after thinking about it for a while. This idea... would definitely not work.
But at this time, the problem arises.
Although this idea probably won't work no matter how you think about it, but...
Li Sheng is so special.
If other young students had said this, they might have laughed and called the imperial guards to come in and drag this kid out to practice stone locks. But when Li Sheng said this, the question seemed a bit strange.
Is there any secret behind this?
Everyone looked at each other, but Yu Shinan still asked, "Uh... Holy Marquis, how are you going to implement this 'economic means'?"
"We have always heard that the Hu people are unruly and uncontrollable. If they are bribed with money, I am afraid that they will raise tigers and bribe Qin with land..."
Yu Shinan's face was full of worry.
When he said this, everyone present showed understanding and looked at Li Sheng with deep frowns.
Can Hu people be bribed with money?
However, Li Sheng burst out laughing when he heard this, "What did Mr. Yongxing say? How could you give money to nothing? That's an idiotic act. How could you give money away..."
Li Sheng is very funny. The more you do things like Hui Tu, the more he will turn against you.
"The so-called economic means is not to give money, but to let the Xianbei people in Tuyuhun make money. Although they are also given just the right amount of money, there is an essential difference..."
"If you want the people of Tuyuhun to make money, of course you have to buy their things. Now the Tang Dynasty's main focus is on Rome. This is the strategic goal. But to confront the Romans, in addition to going south to the sea to Africa, there is another way.
The line is here...in other words."
"The Western Region will definitely be colonized on a larger scale by the Tang Dynasty in the future. Just one Anxi Governor is not enough. And more people will come in the future, so clothing to keep out the cold will be indispensable... What should we do?
It’s clear and clear – just purchase the wool from the Tuyuhun people directly!”
"Buying wool?"
"Wool?...What's the use of this thing?"
"Wool can be used to make blankets, but the Tang Dynasty doesn't seem to need so many blankets..."
Li Sheng finally explained in detail and made it clear that the money was not given away for free, and everyone could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But then Li Sheng mentioned the wool again, and everyone couldn't help but be confused again.
After all, no matter how you say it, wool is just wool. Even if it can be used as a blanket, it is still a luxury product... If you buy it in large quantities, it will be of no use. How can ordinary people afford it?
No matter how prosperous the Tang Dynasty was, it was still an agricultural society.
Although Yu Shinan and others did not understand agricultural society and industrial society, they at least knew that the people of the Tang Dynasty did not need so many blankets.
But Li Sheng smiled slightly,
"Of course you can't use blankets, but... who told you that wool can only be made into blankets? It can also be made into wool, sweaters, wool... especially wool, which is a top-grade clothing material, right?"
As he spoke, Li Sheng couldn't help but feel a little lost in thought. He thought of the expensive coat he was reluctant to buy in his previous life...
Yu Shinan, Duan Zhixuan, Yin Qiao... of course these people don't know what kind of woolen coat Li Sheng has.
But they clearly knew that what Li Sheng said must be very crucial.
Wool... can be made into clothing?
However, the fabric woven from wool... cannot be considered as fabric at all. It is too thick and heavy. This is what the so-called wool "blanket" means. It is okay for them, the strongest warriors, to wear it, but how can ordinary people wear it? Moreover,
Even they can't wear such a heavy blanket for long, and they will soon be sweating profusely.
But Li Sheng clearly seemed to understand something when he said this...
Everyone was stunned and had no choice but to stop Li Sheng and continue to ask questions repeatedly.
Li Sheng had no choice but to explain the problem of wool spinning to everyone...
In this era, there was not even the Huang Daopo textile machine, not to mention the much more advanced Jenny machine, as well as the various fancy textile technologies in modern industry.
It's nothing to spin a mere wool into a coat, but it's easy to make a thin shirt.
Of course, we definitely don’t have the conditions in this era, but if we don’t have the conditions, it’s definitely possible to make some wool.
Thinking about Britain in later generations, when was woolen wool most popular? It was during the Industrial Revolution.
This even became a business card of London in later generations!
And now...
It doesn't matter whether Li Sheng has a business card or not, but it is definitely a big temptation to make more handsome winter clothes.
And Li Sheng explained it like this.
Yu Shinan, Duan Zhixuan... and others all looked at each other in shock.
Wool...can it really be made into clothing?
If you think about it this way, it is really feasible to purchase wool on a large scale... After all, it is a really useful thing, isn't it?
And since wool can be purchased in large quantities, then the problem of Tuyuhun...
