If there is a choice, of course everyone will give priority to the best one, but since the current conditions do not support it, of course it is necessary to move around and make some operations.
Specifically speaking, "operation" in geopolitical affairs is, of course, diplomacy... The right way is to use military force to conquer diplomatic relations. After all, diplomacy is still a very cost-effective means of national interests.
As for how and to whom this diplomacy should be entrusted, Li Sheng thought for a moment... There are several available partners, including Persia, Arabia, and Kushan.
Same.
The orthodoxy is different, and this is only the first reason. Under this first reason, there are also many territorial disputes surrounding North Africa, Egypt, etc., so...
If you want to recruit a group of people to contain Rome, of course you have to recruit them from this group of people.
It is true that in addition to the Arab world, there are also people and horses, that is, the Prussian barbarians in the north of Rome, the Angsa gangsters, and the old Vikings... The Vikings in this period were not completely eliminated by the Angsa people.
It's still there, and it does retain the fighting power of the barbarian tribes.
But this group of people... came too far.
Secondly, this gang of gangsters is very aggressive. At best, they are fierce and capable of fighting. At worst, they are completely unreasonable and have no sense of responsibility, let alone the spirit of contract... To this day, Li Sheng thinks of Gongzhi.
I still laugh when I insist that these people have a spirit of contract.
But in general, this group of people is unreliable, and there is no way to negotiate cooperation with guys who change their minds and bite back at any time.
So after thinking about it, I still go to Central Asia, and these people...
I only know this kind of Asmin at the moment. I don’t know the Arabs at all at the moment, so naturally I will look at the situation in Persia first...
However, there was something unexpected. After cross-examining this little girl, Li Sheng felt that Persia seemed to have quite a bit of talent.
Because this little girl named Asmin has been educated since she was a child!
Women can also be educated. There are several possibilities for this.
First, she met Teacher Zhang. There was nothing to say about that, but obviously there is no such thing in this era.
Second, it shows that she has an extraordinary background!
And the third one means that the environment she was born in has a tradition regarding "education", which is an important symbol of long-term civilization.
Of course, Li Sheng was not very interested in the specific education Asmin received when she was a child. What interested Li Sheng was...
Such a country can be considered a civilized country by the standards of this era, and the best thing about people in civilized countries compared to others is that civilized countries are generally more trustworthy - the tribes that got out of troubled times are in danger every day.
,who cares about credit?
Another meaning of a civilized country is peace and stability, and a peaceful and stable environment will inevitably make people trustworthy.
From this point of view, Persia should be a good partner...
"Little girl, what are the conditions for your family in Persia?"
Li Sheng had secretly made up his mind that Persia would be the one to win.
However, Asmin looked a little embarrassed when she heard this, because after she came to Tang Kingdom, she found this place...
It gave her a feeling that "people's morale" was very strong, that is to say, the people's morale was very high, and people from poor families were often very ambitious, so she knew very well and did not talk about her identity as the daughter of the royal family.
Of course, there is another point. Asmin knows that since she is born in the royal family, no matter how personal the reason for coming to Tang Dynasty is, in the eyes of the whole world, it is somewhat official, and since you are of a certain official nature and certain
Since you came here with official status (bloodline), why don’t you go to Chang’an to say hello to the head of the Tang Dynasty?
It's a bit rude...
Asmin knew that she couldn't argue yet, because it was indeed a bit rude, and... and the reason for the rudeness was also difficult to explain, because she was on this trip to steal technology...
Just when Asmin was stuttering and didn't know how to introduce herself, Li Sheng surprisingly didn't dwell on this at all, but said directly, "... Whatever, I think your family's status in Persia is not low.
In this case... If you think I am a good teacher, then the teacher wants to ask you to do something."
"work?"
Asmin opened her eyes wide in surprise, wondering how someone with such great powers like Li Sheng could ask her to do something...
But soon, she found out and was shocked.
…
At first, Asmin was always worried.
This worry was nothing but the matter of recommending the maid and several guards to the college's student roster and going to Hangzhou to study part-time.
This may seem difficult for students...even whimsical.
But Asmin is not a "student", she is a "student", and the students are students of the academy established more than a thousand years ago.
During this period, there were only two colleges in the entire Tang Dynasty. The teaching scale was not even comparable to that of later universities with tens of thousands of people, and it was not even considered a college. It was good to be considered an academy.
But during this period, it happened to be under the influence of Li Sheng that both the private businessmen and the powerful people in the court, including His Majesty Li Er, who controlled the means of production, all realized that talents were very important.
Talents are not just generals who are good at fighting and scribes who are good at dancing. Aren't talents who can make magical weapons also talents? Their value is not low at all, even very high.
In this era, all parties are extremely hungry for the talent output of the college. If you think about it, the price offered to the technicians produced by the college will not be low.
Needless to say, the influence of the academy on its own products is absolutely extremely high. So...
Businessmen from all walks of life, and the current imperial court, will of course not give less support and preferential treatment to the college!
At this time, if you think about it, if a company discovers that this year's product suddenly becomes a hit on Douyin, what will be their first reaction? ...Yes, of course, it is to increase production capacity and make a profit first.
.
As for the college, as an enterprise that produces technicians, the same is of course the same... At present, the entire Datang Dynasty has a strong demand for technicians, and the constant overtures to the newly emerged hotpot of the college will of course lead to an increase in the college's production, and income.
People naturally try to collect as much as possible.
This era is still ancient after all.
Asmin could regard the academy as some kind of subsidiary institution of the Tang Dynasty Palace, and that it was filled with nobles. The reason was very simple. The literacy rate was really low.
