This is a war without gunpowder!

This is a war that determines the future outcome at the very beginning!

This is an undisputed war with far-reaching implications and huge implications!

All of this will be officially decided at the end of the sixth year of Zhenguan, which will directly affect the future of Datang, as well as the future of the people of Datang, as well as the national fortune of the entire Chinese nation, as well as Suning's planning, this result will be a milestone event in the history of Datang!

Of course, Suning doesn't care too much about all this, he only cares about one thing now...... Fuck it off! I'm still in a hurry to go back for the New Year! I'm still in a hurry to go back to my hometown and get married!

In fact, this kind of primitive bidding is nothing, but when it comes to the degree of intensity, there is still a look, just like the debate in the academic exchange meeting of the pre-Qin era in ancient times, and the specific situation can also refer to the intensity of the debate in the school palace under Qi Guoji, the debate at that time, it was really hard to fight, to debate with life, it was really lifeless, and now, for the sake of their own interests, businessmen can also die.

This level of intensity, Suning was simply surprised, even the Western Turkic United Business Group that had been greeted seemed to be a little moved, Suning thought about it, and did not stop it, if Yi Nan was a smart person, he would definitely choose the Guanzhong United Business Group, he had made it clear enough, Yi Nan could also get a lot of warnings, and he would maintain consistency with Datang on many issues in the future, so as to exchange for his own safety.

At least within ten years, Xue Yantuo will not have the strength to compete head-on with Datang.

This is Yi Nan's own calculation. However, he seems to be thinking a little too simply, because even if Xue Yantuo wants to have the strength to fight with the Tang Dynasty, it will take more than ten years, and at the same time, Xue Yantuo does not have the economic strength and comprehensive national strength compared with the Tang Dynasty, according to the comprehensive national strength, the five Xue Yantuo are not the opponents of the Tang Dynasty, in fact, even if it is the Song Dynasty, the comprehensive national strength of the Great Song Dynasty is stronger than that of the Western Xia, Liaojin, Mongolia and other big countries, but sometimes the war is not only the comprehensive national strength.

Datang also has a strong military. There are also generals who can fight. A large number of famous generals led by Li Jing appeared in Datang, and it is not a problem to live for more than ten or twenty years, and Suning himself is cheeky and calls himself a famous general, and he can live for at least thirty or forty years. In this case, Xue Yantuo will never want to fight against Datang. And. According to Suning's plan, Datang will become stronger and stronger.

There is a very important issue here. That is, although a lot of technical information can be found on the divine machine, Suning gradually understands that knowing the Tao and making it are two different things, for example, how to make the chocolate of the Zhilu Dao, and even the materials and production process, you can know the Tao clearly, but if you do it, it is very likely that there will still be things like dark cuisine, such as Hu Yifei's Fikli.

Therefore, Suning knew that there were a lot of techniques, and wrote them down, and told these important iron-smelting and metallurgical techniques to the technical department of the Ministry of Industry that had been taken over by Momen in a way that the Tang people could understand, but the result was that there was not much progress for more than a year, and the technical personnel of Momen improved the industry of the Tang Dynasty to the highest degree they could master, but the information given by Suning did not make any achievements from it.

Probably also a problem of the times, they can use the technology that exceeds the existing level of the Tang Dynasty for 50 years to improve the industry of the Tang Dynasty, so that the Tang Dynasty can move forward for 50 years, but the technology given by Suning is at least the peak of the Chinese technology in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and the technology of the Western Industrial Revolution, at this time the Tang Dynasty is still in the seventh century, and the technology is almost a thousand years after the seventeenth century, and it seems a little difficult to comprehend it......

In fact, it can be said that the techniques of the Tang Dynasty and the techniques of the Song Dynasty are also very different, the techniques of the Tang Dynasty are at least a big part behind the techniques of the Song Dynasty, and the techniques of the Song Dynasty have been used in the Ming Dynasty, since the close exchanges between the East and the West in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the techniques of the Ming Dynasty have undergone qualitative changes.

Therefore, the golden age of Chinese technology is the middle and late Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty does not belong to this list, although the real appearance of gunpowder weapons is also in the Tang Dynasty, but in terms of technology alone, it is obvious that the Tang Dynasty is not very good, otherwise it will not let Momen come up to pull into fifty years, and gradually began to promote, at the same time, Momen's core technology researchers are working hard to study the technical information given by Suning, such as steam engines or something, they expressed a strong interest in this......

But now, there has not been much progress in the technical level, and Suning also gave them the formula of gunpowder, hoping that they can make gunpowder and thermal weapons that can really be classified as gunpowder weapons, but the progress is still not very good, and even the most primitive artillery can't be made, the reason is that the cannon barrel can't be made, and the iron-smelting technology is seriously backward......

This made Suning very depressed, it turned out that gunpowder weapons are so difficult to get, gunpowder alone will not work, at most one explosives package, there is no actual change for the war, the era of transition from cold weapons to hot weapons is not so easy to come, Datang is now a complete cold weapons country, and hot weapons have no connection.

Suning is depressed, I can't stand it, but helpless, really helpless, the reason why it takes so many years to reform and innovate in technology is because theory and practice are completely different, theory can be put forward hundreds of years earlier than practice, and in these hundreds of years, human beings do not have enough technical power to practice this theory.

Datang is in this embarrassing stage, and Suning is also uncomfortable, but he can only wait, when does he really have time, he must personally enter this research department to study together, haven't you eaten pork and never seen a pig run? Even if you don't know the way, you have experienced it yourself, and you have personally seen what steel mills, and you have personally operated the smelting process, so it is better to have yourself than not to have yourself.

In addition, Li Tai's guy is still immersed in the world of science, and Suning even thinks that it would be better to hand over the development of gunpowder to him. But considering this guy's somewhat paranoid personality, if one of them doesn't blow himself up half, then he will be to blame...... Or wait for when you have the opportunity to try it with him, I always feel that this guy will give himself some surprises, his physics level is obviously already at the junior high school level...... No, maybe it's high school......

From theory to practice and technique, there is still a galaxy that seems to be uncrossable in the middle......

The heated debate continued, and Yi Nan was stunned for a moment, and now these representatives of the Tang Dynasty have talked about the Confucian classics from commercial issues, and have begun to debate the Confucian classics. What a gentleman is said to be righteous, and a villain is said to be profitable. They accuse each other of being villains and being gentlemen, but they don't intend to back down like a gentleman, this is no longer a commercial debate, it has become an academic debate......

It really deserves to be a Shandong scholar. Even if it's a businessman. It can also talk about a lot of obscure scripture and meaning...... Sure enough, it has only come out of the people since ancient times. The seventy-year-old Confucian merchant and the figure who seemed to be his son used a combination of skills—father and son concentric, fighting against the Shandong scholars—and when they encountered a problem of interests, even the Shandong scholars could not back down...... The Western Turkic caravans were not frightened. A few people who were familiar with the Confucian classics were sent to join the debate, and it was simply an academic debate to say that the head was the Tao......

Suning felt that he was one head or two big, and couldn't help but look at Yi Nan, and found that Yi Nan also happened to look at him, so he smiled bitterly: "Ha Luha, the Tang Dynasty is at its peak, and these people have also read books, this, this, hehe, it's inevitable, and I hope that the Great Khan Haihan is over, and they are about to argue with the result!" ”

Yi Nan laughed, and scolded in his heart to argue about your uncle! Argue about your sister! Lao Tzu didn't come to listen to these poems, Lao Tzu wanted to hear if there was any benefit, you just started talking about what a gentleman is and what is a villain, and this doesn't let people talk about business? Can this still be enjoyable?

Hehe, it's quite (T) cute (M) (D), can (N) sell (M) not (B)?

Fuck your sister's gentleman Yu Yi, go to your uncle's villain Yu Yuli!

Yi Nan is really helpless, but I'm embarrassed to say this, I can only look at Suning with helpless eyes, Suning actually doesn't want to look at them like this, anyway, the plan has been submitted, Yi Nan can understand Chinese characters, understand Chinese, this is naturally no problem, after a cursory browsing, Yi Nan also roughly understood what Suning meant, and looked at the conditions given in the three aspects, Yi Nan also understood, only the Chinese business group has no official background, easy to deal with, and to be honest, other business groups have a very powerful backer, I can't afford to exclaim myself.

Suning saw Yi Nan's decision, and regardless of the three business groups that were quarreling, it was actually better to speak with facts, so Suning decided to take this opportunity to take Yi Nan out of the country to see the results of the transactions of the major business groups: "Great Khan, this, you see that they are in a fierce mood now, and they can't quarrel for a while, this has no practical effect on our discussion, why don't we take a look at the transactions between those caravans and herdsmen?" ”

Yi Nan really wanted to hug Suning and kiss him, because this was something he wanted to do but didn't dare to say it, Suning said it first, then it would be good, he would have a reason to escape here, so Yi Nan immediately got up and followed Suning out of this quarrelsome alliance tent, until they walked out of the long way, Suning could still hear the quarrel, sure enough, they were arguing! It's just a quarrel!

Suning shook his head, didn't care about these things, and rode side by side with Yi Nan, and went to inspect the three large trading places around here, about the trade Yi Nan had already notified the entire Xue Yantuo prairie, and asked these herdsmen to bring cattle, sheep and horses to the location of the royal court to trade, and the various materials brought by the three large caravans were all in short supply at present, especially steel products, but it seemed that none of the three caravans had ever raised anything related to steel trading......

Does Datang still not agree to the steel deal?

That's right, this is war materials, how can war materials be traded with each other? In the case of Xue Yantuo, they would not be willing to trade their horses to Datang in a big way, although Datang is not short of horses at present, but has a large number of horses, and they do not have an advantage in this regard...... However, Datang won't think there are many of these things, right?

Generally speaking, you still take what you need, you want these silk porcelain or tea bricks, and I want your cattle, sheep and horses and all kinds of leather products, let's swap them!

The trading scene is still very hot, the current location of Suning is the trading ground of the Western Turkic joint caravan, they have been doing business with the Western Turks for a long time, and they are well versed in the needs of these people, so they are basically in short supply in the Western Turks The products are in short supply, so they are very popular, they also have very rich experience, they can quickly deal with a large number of cattle, sheep and horses influx, and then use the fastest speed to convert and trade with each other, which is their long-term experience in doing business with foreign peoples.

"Let's go to the next place!" Suning proposed, Yi Nan frowned, nodded and said, "It's good." (To be continued......)
