Nowadays, if you want to study, you must first learn to chop down trees. After reading about bamboo, you can then learn to carve and cut each bamboo into pieces.
After you finish cutting, you have to learn to weave and weave the pieces of bamboo slips together, and then you start copying the book. After you finish everything, more than half a year has passed.
Low productivity has created a deformed education. If this thing was really extended, the cost of books would be reduced. How many more scholars would there be in the world?
When he thought of this, Liu Qi's blood started to boil.
At this time, he is already half an emperor. The current emperor Liu Heng, also known as Emperor Xiaowen of the Han Dynasty in later generations, basically no longer cares about the affairs of the court.
If there was nothing major, it would be up to him, the prince, to take care of things like enlightening the people's wisdom. Even in his most wonderful dreams, he would not dare to think of it like this!
If he could accomplish this in his lifetime, it would be enough to make him famous in history.
No one who wants to be an emperor doesn't want to be remembered in history. When they reach this stage, they don't really have much to pursue. The whole country belongs to him, so what can he not achieve?
Money, power, and beauty are all at your fingertips, but the only thing that remains a challenge is being remembered in history.
As long as he can accomplish this, he will definitely be remembered in history.
"If you need any help with this matter, just ask!"
Ever since Liu Deng took out this thing and saw Liu Qi's expression, he knew that he had won this time.
Liu Qi was completely convinced by him. From now on, this would be his first supporter in the court.
"Uncle is joking, my nephew is different now than before. I only need you to help me with a small thing, and my nephew can solve the rest by himself!"
Now that the benefits have been offered, and looking at the current situation, it is impossible for Liu Qi to refuse, then it is time to serve the main course.
"You can tell me anything!"
Liu Qi is in high spirits now.
"My nephew is reorganizing the military affairs recently. When the Huns come again, he is going to teach them a lesson, so now we need a batch of ordnance. This is the list made by my nephew. I ask my uncle to fulfill it!"
As Liu Deng spoke, he took out a list that had been written long ago from his arms.
Looking at his skillful movements, Liu Qi immediately understood that Tnd had been fooled again. This kid had been prepared for it.
However, when he looked down at the Tao Te Ching in his hand again, he felt that a little weapon was nothing.
"Let me see what you want. As long as it's not too much, of course I, as an uncle, will help you!"
Although Liu Qi said this, after opening the list, his expression suddenly changed as soon as he glanced at it. Is this kid crazy?
"One hundred thousand pairs of armor, 100,000 halberds, 10,000 rhubarb crossbows, and 20,000 Qin crossbows? You are really a lion. There is no need to report this matter to the court. I can tell you now, no way. !”
Liu Qi's nose was almost twisted with anger. With this order issued by this boy, was he planning to empty out the Han Dynasty's arsenal?
Although the imperial court said that the family has a great cause, it would be a bit difficult to take out so many weapons at once.
"Uncle, you are too stingy. Otherwise, just give me something casually. I don't want things from the court in vain. How about I spend money to buy them?"
Of course Liu Deng understood that, let alone Liu Qi who read this list, even Liu Heng would scold him when he saw it.
He didn't originally plan to get it directly. As a vassal state, it was actually taboo to purchase so many ordnance.
As mentioned earlier, Wu Chu and other countries prepared to raise troops to cause chaos, but he turned back and asked for so many ordnance. If Liu Qi was not sick, how could he give it to him?
"It's like a sentence. I'll give you 10,000 pieces of armor. There's no problem with 50,000 or 30,000 halberds. As for crossbows, what do you need so many crossbows for? Although this thing can be regarded as a weapon for defending the city, it can't be used to fight the Hungarians. On the other hand, the effect is very limited..."
Little did he know that Liu Deng wanted these things because he was going to take them back and modify them himself.
Moreover, although there is no trace of the serial crossbow these days, Liu Deng suddenly remembered the sharp weapon of the winding weapon after being inspired by the two old men of the Huyan family.
"My nephew is training new soldiers here, so this thing is the only one that can be used faster. Besides, the Huns come here every year, and the losses of the soldiers are really great..."
Hearing what Liu Deng said, it was not convenient for Liu Qi to ask any more questions. He knew in his heart that Dai's country was small and its people were weak, and a large part of the reason was because of the Huns issue.
Over the years, it can be said that Dai Guo has been protecting the court from disasters. Now that it has come to this, people have already spent money to buy it, and of course it is not convenient for him to withhold what he can give.
After all, I had already rejected Liu Deng once. It was really embarrassing to reject him a second time.
Little did he know that what Liu Deng was waiting for was his. Sorry, this is human psychology. Rejecting others on the same thing twice in a row is really a bit embarrassing for an honest person like Liu Qi.
In particular, the preparation Liu Deng had made before was enough. It was really difficult for Liu Qi to refuse him at this time.
"The imperial court doesn't produce that much of these things, so I'll give you half of each!"
Liu Qi thought for a while and then said.
"Then, I wonder if my uncle thinks it's feasible for my nephew to use high-quality green salt to pay off his debt?"
When Liu Deng said this, he winked at Liu Qi. This was a matter of public and private concern.
When productivity is low, those daily necessities become more important, especially in this day and age, when salt is really one of the hard currencies.
"Of course there is no problem with this. Anyway, the imperial court purchases a large amount of salt from Wu and Chu every year. Since Dai State has better things, it can naturally be purchased from Dai State. Is this price? How about keeping it at the price of previous years? ?”
"Of course, no problem, uncle will make the decision on everything!"
Liu Deng is not stupid. Anyway, you have shares in this. You can do whatever you like. If you lose money, it will be deducted from your shares. He can definitely do this kind of thing.
"You kid, I don't know how you were born. Although you look weird, you always give people a refreshing feeling when you do things. As an uncle, I can give you a message, Mu Xiu Yu Lin , the wind will destroy it!"
Liu Qi said, giving him a meaningful look, and Liu Deng's heart skipped a beat...
