Shipbuilding is a big project, especially in this era, there is no so-called science and technology, and there is no mechanized equipment, even if you want to do electric welding...... Sorry, there is no generator.

Therefore, the shipbuilding technology of this era was very underdeveloped, and looking at the whole world, I am afraid that there were no large-scale ships. Most of the small fishing boats that circulate in the rivers and lakes are still small.

When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty went down to the south of the Yangtze River, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal was one of the world's largest ships that let the boat pull the boat forward, and the ship has not yet solved the problem of power.

So much so that after Chen Fei and Li Zhuo said this idea, Li Zhuo directly spread his hands and said that he couldn't help. Because there are no craftsmen who can build ships in the strange workshop.

Chen Fei didn't give up, he must have said that Lao Li was too lazy and too lazy to help, so he personally went to the workshop to ask around, and the result was ...... It's really special that there are no craftsmen who can build ships! He wanted to cry without tears.

"! Could it be that craftsmen who can build ships are more precious than pandas? Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil and can't find anyone! Anyway, I have one more giant panda at home! Chen Fei said fiercely.

He has a problem, if he can't achieve what he wants to do, he will feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable, and he thinks about it every day, so he has to find a solution.

But where do you go to find skilled craftsmen now? Chen Fei thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized a very serious problem - Chang'an is a standard inland city, and the river is not only small, but also the river channel is not wide enough. It is difficult for large ships to travel on such a river.

In such an environment, how can the shipbuilding technology be so high? If you want to find a place with developed shipbuilding technology, I am afraid you have to go to Jiangnan. With abundant water, crisscrossed rivers and close proximity to the sea, shipbuilding skills should be much higher than those inland, and it should be much easier to find skilled shipbuilders.

For example, in memory, the treasure ship of Zheng He in the Ming Dynasty seems to have been made in the shipyard in the Yangzhou area of Nanjing.

If you want to make the treasure ship on the drawing, I'm afraid you have to go to Jiangnan.

"Jiangnan, Jiangnan is a good place, but unfortunately, Your Majesty won't let me go to Jiangnan casually." Chen Fei showed a yearning look, and then shook his head regretfully.

Yes, the problem came full circle, and finally it came back to square one. In other words, if you want to build a treasure ship, you have to go to Li Shimin to do ideological work. But at this time...... Forget it, let's delay it for a while, anyway, this is a big project, it's useless to rush, it's no problem to mention it in a few years, I'm young and can afford to wait.

After thinking about this, Chen Fei's mood suddenly improved a lot, and he temporarily persuaded himself to put down the shipbuilding business and put his energy into the development of Chen Ji.

As for the official positions in the court...... Well, he can't be left behind, lest anyone hit his little report and be punished by His Majesty.

In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, the days were plain and proliferated, and the court was temporarily peaceful, and the surrounding small countries were ...... Except for the three kingdoms of Goguryeo in the east, Tibet in the west, and small countries in Southeast Asia, any other country bordering the Tang Dynasty has already been surnamed Tang. Moreover, these small countries are also frightened by the perverted military strength of the Tang Dynasty, with a few living examples in front of them, who would dare to die by themselves to find it unhappy? Even the invincible Tubo can only honestly nest on his own territory, and dare not do anything that crosses the line.

Speaking of Tibet, at the beginning of the year, there was another thing that made the Manchu civil and military laugh - Songtsen Gampo sent envoys to propose marriage. He really didn't give up on Princess Datang, and he was still thinking about it after so long, which also made the ministers speechless.

Li Shimin's attitude towards this is also very clear - you are a small barbarian country, the national strength is backward, you don't understand etiquette, righteousness and shame, and most people in the country still live like barbarians, why do you want to marry a princess who has been pampered since childhood? Why does my precious daughter want to marry you and live a hard life? Don't even think about it!

Li Shimin refused very simply, and the Tibetan envoy was very hurt.

Chen Fei was also happy, but he didn't expect that the famous incident of Princess Wencheng entering Tibet in history was wiped out by the thunderbolt fire he invented.

Thinking about it, after Li Shimin had a series of sharp weapons such as thunderbolts and cannons, he also had a sense of loneliness of "fighting invincible opponents all over the world". Tubo, who originally made him jealous, now seems to be just that poor and sour, and there is nothing to scruple about. Say no, say no, and don't take your feelings into account at all. If it's a little colder, I won't be too lazy to see you.

The Tibetan envoy also realized his embarrassment. To say how invincible they were when they first walked out of the plateau a few years ago, they fought so hard that the Western Regions powers had no temper at all.

As a result, I hit the nail twice here in Datang, once I was beaten back to the plateau, and once I was scared back to the plateau. Now, I don't even have the qualifications to stand in the court to negotiate.

The envoy had no doubt that if it weren't for the geographical advantage of Tibet, the Tang army would not be able to invade on a large scale, and I am afraid that the land of Tubo would now have the surname Tang.

What broke the heart of the Tibetan envoy was that even if Datang abused him thousands of times, he still had to treat Datang like his first love. The task given to him by Songtsen Gampo is to do everything possible to make Datang agree to make peace at any cost!

Because now the Western Regions have become the territory of the Tang Dynasty, the Tibetans know that their strength is not good, and they dare not invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and their southwest is the Himalayas, blocking their channel of communication with the outside world, and it is not easy to get out of the territory of Tibet. If you don't reach a peace with the Tang Dynasty or improve relations, it is equivalent to Tubo being besieged and killed on the plateau. Moreover, the resources and food of Tibet are so scarce, if you can't contact the outside world, I'm afraid that you won't even be able to feed the people in your own land, so how can you talk about strengthening the tribe?

If you can't beat Datang, then you can only seek reconciliation, undoubtedly, the relationship between Tubo and Datang is very stiff now, and harmony is a good entry point. Songtsen Gampo also gave the envoys high hopes.

How do you know that hope is plump and reality is skinny, as soon as the envoy put forward the idea of harmony, he was decisively rejected by Li Shimin, and after refusing, he added: "Don't mention it again in the future." ”

This is good, it is equivalent to directly wiping out the idea of Tubo and relatives, and next time I don't know how to speak, and the envoy is depressed to death.

Li Shimin's attitude made the envoys helpless, depressed to depressed, and those who should face the reality had to face the reality. The envoy could only silently say in his heart that he was sorry for Songtsen Gampo, and the rest ...... There's really nothing he can do about it. ()
