"So if you want to really solve this problem, it is useful to rely on the five major cities alone, but in my opinion, it is a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause. Moreover, the sustainability of the five major cities is really not easy to say now. The five major cities will definitely be there in a few decades, but I don't know what they will become."

"Hey, this primitive capital is actually a problem that cannot be solved by all countries in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad. Although a great philosopher gave a formula for accumulating surplus and natural development through the development of production technology, it is actually impossible. No country can enter the industrial age by saving money."

(We are not. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the first one relies on confiscation of income, the second one relies on the assistance of the big brother, the third one relies on the assistance of the beautiful country for seventy years, and the fourth one relies on overseas Chinese. No country in the world can develop purely through hard work)

"So, if we want to build five major cities, or even build 50 or 500 cities in the future, the court must make a fortune. With this fortune, we will use it in the real place. Perhaps this major change that has not been seen in thousands of years will come. As for the production technology changes needed to enter the industrial society, to be honest, they are all small matters, and I can almost do it alone."

Now, the three of them finally understood why the emperor had to talk to them so much.

"So your Majesty, do you think this fortune is in the Western Regions?!"

Liu Xie sighed, "It's not enough for just one Western Region. For those small countries in the Western Regions, if you squeeze them out, you can squeeze out a few taels of oil and water."

"The Han Dynasty is too large. If all the thirteen states want to achieve industrialization, you will squeeze out Rome, namely the Qin Dynasty, and Anxi, the Kushan Empire, which is not necessarily weaker than the Han Dynasty. In addition, an Indian region may be almost the same, but not enough, then you can only sail."

The three of them were completely confused when they heard this.

In the end, Cao Chun gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I swear to complete the task to the death. Let my great Han's army travel through the rest of the country you just mentioned, the Great Qin, the Kushan and other countries. We must plunder the great Han Dynasty this fortune that is enough to stabilize for the ages!"

Han Sui and Zhuge Liang didn't say anything, because no matter how it was impossible, if these three countries were really similar to the Han Dynasty in terms of national strength, wouldn't such an expedition be a fool?

Sure enough, Liu Xie smiled and scolded, "You are going to be crazy. Even if the country is big and wary, it will perish. Do you think I am Genghis Khan? Do you play the mobile center? With the national strength of my great man, this is impossible, it is too far away."

"That Majesty means..."

"Does plunder have to rely on war? In fact, the speed of trade plundering is not necessarily slower than war."

"Our Han Dynasty has silk, porcelain, and tea grown by more and more people, and even our ironware has always been better than theirs. Our Han Dynasty's products are originally a divine thing in the sky, and there is no need to worry about selling them. Besides, I have also invented strong wine, soap, and glass with relatively high impurities. These things are our trading advantage products."

"In addition, with the completion of the construction of the five major cities, the power of industrial production has begun to emerge. Not to mention high-end goods that these barbarians cannot make, they can even make unnecessary products in life, such as sugar, iron, hemp, and various production tools. Our products are cheap and good, and can also be exported on a large scale to exchange for a large amount of resources, or even slaves. Of course, how to use this slave needs to be discussed again."

"Export industrial products and then input a large amount of raw materials and means of production. This is economic colonization. The most important thing is that we still have new Jian'an coins. To be honest, isn't this money stubbornly stubborn? My great man had the advantage of crushing them in terms of culture and goods. Why can't this money be used in their country? As long as this money can be used in foreign countries, the foreign resources will naturally be open to our great man's arms. This is the same as what we do to Yizhou and Yangzhou now."

(It is said that a Greek came during the Han Dynasty. After returning, he told people everywhere that China was the place where God lived, and the people there were six feet tall, which was much more exaggerated than Marco Polo)

"I dare to ask your Majesty, what should I do in detail?"

"The first step is to ensure that the trade route is unobstructed. At least among the small countries in the Western Regions, I, the great man, trade with whoever I want. I must eliminate bandits along the way to reduce the transportation costs of foreign trade, and also ensure that the Western Regions countries cannot conduct official robbery on our trade in any case. If someone eats the heart of a bear, leopard, Cao Chun, kill a warning to a hundred people, and allow you to massacre the city and destroy the country if necessary. Of course, it must be in the name of justice."

"The second step is to ensure that every country can have free trade with our Han Dynasty. We will never allow the agency of our Han Dynasty trade in the Western Regions. The profits must be kept in our own pockets. Whoever dares to stop other countries from trading with our Han Dynasty will conquer their capital and kill their kings. In particular, it will be slaughtered the city and destroyed the country."

"The third step is an extension of the second step, and we will find ways to sign a free trade agreement with Western Regions and the Sakura countries, so that the road between these countries can be unobstructed."

"Fourth, support compradors, that is, agents in Western countries who support our great Han, let them help us plunder their own countries, try to choose their princes and nobles, or those who have the ability to control the national affairs, support him and support him strongly, until finally support a court completely controlled by compradors, and the goal of seeking is almost the same."

"Then, it is the export of culture. They must make them feel from the bottom of their heart that the things of our Han people are good, people, culture, and art are good, so that they feel that our great Han is a fairyland on earth, and that the best top talents in the country are proud of our great Han people."

"At this point, they can only make new money for our Jian'an. In this process, my big man will continue to suck their blood. The more he sucks, the weaker they will be, the stronger we will be, the easier it will be to achieve these goals, and the increase and decrease of the other will enter a positive cycle. In this way, decades later, my big man will almost completely enter the industrial society."

"At that time, not only will our great Han Dynasty last for a long time, but every great Han Dynasty's people can also eat and wear warm clothes, and no longer suffer from cold and hunger. Even a little rich family can hire a Western barbarian to serve as a servant."

"Everyone, the millennium plan is now in the Western Regions, on the shoulders of the three. I believe that the three will definitely not disappoint me."

If this day really happens, I just won’t go back, it’s worth it.

The three little ones all yearned for it, and were even more shocked, so they forgot to reply for a while.

This emperor not only has a completely different perspective on the problem from ours, but also has a completely different way of doing things. Is it so thorough? This takes into account what you will do in the next few decades and even hundreds of years!

Many people think that the emperor wants to manage the Western Regions, but in fact, it is to stabilize Liangzhou, which has been rebelling since the Eastern Han Dynasty. The so-called management of the Western Regions is a way to handle it. As a result, it seems that stabilizing Liangzhou is the real way to handle it.

What is foresight?

This person can be called a smart person if he can see the change within one year. He can see the change within ten years, which is a wise man who is rare in a century. The emperor, what he sees and does is clearly for a hundred years, or even the events of the previous year.
