Although he used to be obsessed with money, he couldn't pull his eyes out when he saw money, and couldn't move when he saw gold.
But that was really his last life, and he was really poor!
But now, he is prospering in the Tang Dynasty, and he has hundreds of thousands of money in his hands. As for the lack of money, there is really no way to talk about it.
Of course, someone may jump out and say: Although this money is a lot, it is not his, but is given to Xiao Lizi. Is he so cowardly that he dares to embezzle?
Well, people who understand will understand even if you don’t tell them!
If you don't understand, tell him and he won't understand.
Anyway, one thing is certain: Xiao Han has never been corrupt, but money still flows straight into his home like running water.
"I'm not short of money! There's no reason to trade the lives of soldiers." Xiao Han lay on the brocade quilt and answered Chai Shao angrily.
"So there is a shortage of people?" Chai Shao frowned when he heard this and asked again.
Because he suddenly remembered that Xiao Han had said a lot to him and Cheng Yaojin early in the morning about how talents were not easy to come by and skills were rare. He didn’t understand it at the time, but now that he thought about it, wasn’t this just asking him for someone?
"Oops! I mean Xiao Han, if you need someone, just say it! Why do you have to turn around so much? I'm a rough guy! I don't understand these nonsense!" Cheng Yaojin felt itchy when he heard the two people talking, and then
I couldn't help but turn around and interrupt.
Xiao Han raised his head when he heard the sound, rolled his eyes at him again, and said bitterly: "I am really short of people right now! But the problem is, you can't get the people I lack, and I can't use the people you can get.
."
"Oh?" Cheng Yaojin didn't care about Xiao Han's eyes, grinned and said: "Xiao Han, I don't like hearing this! What do you mean I can't get it? Just tell me where he is.
, I will send someone to look for him! Hum, if he knows his identity, he will follow him honestly! If he doesn’t know his identity, tie him up with a tendon rope, and stuff his mouth with a piece of rag, hum, look.
Will he come or not!"
"You're paying attention, tsk tsk, that's awesome! As expected of a bandit and ranger, his style of doing things is direct!" The corner of Xiao Han's mouth twitched a few times, and he couldn't help but give Cheng Yaojin a thumbs up.
Cheng Yaojin squinted his eyes and laughed. He didn't notice Xiao Han's weird expression at all, and said proudly: "Haha, just so so. Oh, by the way, you haven't said who you want to kidnap yet?"
Xiao Han slowly and politely clasped his fingers and said: "Who are you kidnapping? Let me think about it, Luan Jingxue, Liu Chao, Li Jinchao, who is the supervisor of the craftsman, Gao Wenlong from the Ministry of Industry... Forget it, you can just go and take those who can be arranged.
Capture all the great craftsmen from all walks of life! We can’t use them now, but they will be needed in the future!”
Every time Xiao Han read a name, Cheng Yaojin's face turned darker. When he finally said that he would kidnap all the master craftsmen, Cheng Yaojin's face was as dark as the bottom of a marching pot.
"Ahem, are you kidding me? The master craftsmen who will serve as supervisors are completely different from ordinary craftsmen. They are very valuable. If I want to kidnap them, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry will go crazy the next day. He can't do it, he can't do it!"
"Can't do it? Then who was so awesome just now?"
Xiao Han saw Cheng Yaojin shaking his head like a rattle, and couldn't help but snorted coldly, almost spitting to express his disdain.
Of course, Xiao Han also knew that it was completely impossible for Cheng Yaojin to kidnap those great craftsmen!
Putting aside the fact that even if people are kidnapped, he has to send them back intact, just saying that these people will definitely play a decisive role if they remain under his command? Not necessarily!
Now, let’s talk about gunpowder and steel.
Xiao Han's Sanyuan County is almost at the top of the world! It is almost impossible to make a big breakthrough in the short term. It is even more idiotic to think that it can be solved by kidnapping a few people! If such a good thing really happens,
Xiao Han didn't need Cheng Yaojin, he would have already gone into battle shirtless.
The magic of science is that it must develop in a balanced manner in all aspects!
Perhaps, driven by a certain kind of genius, one aspect of it will move extremely fast, but without other support, once the dividend ends, it will soon encounter a bottleneck and stagnate.
For example, let’s talk about current firearms.
It can have its current power precisely because of the influence of external factors such as Xiao Han.
But when Xiao Han ran out of skills, it became inevitable to stop.
Xiao Han wants guns, wants cannons, and wants those prairie people to put down their swords in front of firearms and become good at singing and dancing. Then he needs better steel and better gunpowder formulas...
To make better steel, it is not only a matter of smelting, but also requires more complex chemical technology.
As for the gunpowder formula, they have basically reached the end of their research on the black gunpowder they currently have, and can only develop into yellow gunpowder or even nitroglycerin.
In this way, a problem arises. Xiao Han, as a cheating device, does not understand this at all!
I don't think he came here with the intention of traveling back in time, so how could he deliberately learn these things?
To heat the blast furnace, oxygen must be blown, but he doesn't know how to make oxygen!
He doesn’t understand the craftsmanship of the yellow ** which is more powerful than the black **!
Now, the only thing I have any impression of is nitrocellulose that can be used as submunitions. I learned this from my former poor roommate who loved firearms.
But the sulfuric acid has been out for so long, and I don’t know how much cotton has been used. Even the hair of the legendary nitrocellulose has not been allowed to be seen by Xiao Han. What can he do?
"What is the most lacking thing in the Tang Dynasty today? Talent! But I can't worry about this talent alone! You bastards, all of you are one of them. If you want good things, you have to work hard!"
Thinking bitterly in his mind, Xiao Han slowly said: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, we can't afford those great craftsmen, and there's no point in using them! Besides, our Lao Zhao is better than them
More! You two, help me find more people who are smart and willing to work hard, preferably those who can read. I want to gather such a group of people to specialize in studying one subject and see if they can be helpful to firearms!"
When Cheng Yaojin heard that Xiao Han didn't need him to kidnap the master craftsman, he immediately felt relieved and said with a sly smile: "Well, what if there is no help?"
"What should I do? Cold!" Xiao Han rolled his eyes, and then said dejectedly: "If it doesn't work, we can only start from the baby and build a hundred schools. I don't believe that we can't produce a useful talent!
Oh, by the way, there is one more thing. I built an academy with the Mohists in Yangzhou to teach some skills and craftsmanship. The weapons you want in the future may have been developed from their hands, so if there are any evil scholars looking for trouble,
You know what to do, right?"
(ps. Xiao Han’s method of getting money is very simple. Let’s use a simple analogy: you take out a piece of meat from the refrigerator. You don’t need to cut it. Just wash it in water and put it back. The meat will still look like the same piece of meat.
After weighing it, there is nothing missing, but look what is left on your hands? Oil and water!!!)
