After thinking for a long time, Su Chen finally sorted out the information about the Japanese country from his memory.
Many of Japan's current cultures and national systems are imitated and learned from China's Sui Dynasty.
However, their country prospered because of this. It was not until the Nara period that Emperor Kotoku implemented reforms, imitated the legal system of the Tang Dynasty, and officially completed the centralization of power.
At the same time, they introduced land equalization and rent adjustment, implemented household registration and accounting systems, wrote the "Dabao Order" code with reference to the "Tang Order", followed the layout of Chang'an City to plan Ping'an, Pingcheng and two capitals, and finally turned into a smaller version of the Tang Dynasty.
!
According to the current time calculation, the Japanese country should be in the Asuka period. The "Great Reform" has not yet begun, and it is very backward in all aspects. The Japanese country has just begun to transition from a tribal society to a feudal centralized state.
In other words, they are not much better than the savages now!
In the Japanese kingdom of Asuka, two aristocratic forces controlled the power of the country, namely the Soga clan and the Mononobe clan.
And these two nobles are militants who always want to get in between Goguryeo, Silla, and Baekje.
Among them, the Mononobe clan is the most powerful because of its military power, but the Soga clan is not much inferior.
However, the Soga tribe advocates Buddhism and the Mononobe tribe advocates primitive beliefs, so the two tribes are basically on opposite sides.
Since the Sui Dynasty, the two tribes have been at war and have not stopped yet.
Nowadays, the interior of the Japanese country is simply a mess.
If Su Chen remembers correctly, after the civil strife in Japan is over, they will send Tang envoys to Chang'an as soon as possible.
The envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty have not yet arrived, which means that their new political power has not yet been established.
Thinking of this, Su Chen finally clarified his thoughts.
Want the civil war to end?
That's impossible, we have to let them continue to cause chaos!
Although these people are not much better than primitive people now, after more than a thousand years, they will be a serious problem!
We must take advantage of this opportunity to control the entire country!
In this way, it will not only facilitate mining, but also help future generations eliminate a powerful enemy in advance!
Best of both worlds!
In a good mood, Su Chen began to write a plan.
Suddenly, he felt that these "six hundred elites" were not so worthless.
Although they don't have much combat effectiveness, they have talented people who excel in any industry. Many of them even claim to have been war reporters, which is very useful!
Originally, he planned to push directly across the city and then dig out the city himself.
Now that I think about it, this plan does have a lot of flaws.
How long can you dig such a big mine yourself?
If we could directly control the Japanese country and enslave them to dig for ourselves... wouldn't it save time and effort?
Given the current situation in Japan, it is not difficult to achieve this goal.
After clearing his thoughts, Su Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
It can also be said that it was an accident, but the arrival of the "Six Hundred Elites" allowed him to find a more profitable way!
Although it is a bit time-consuming and labor-intensive, compared with the huge benefits, everything is worth it!
…
Just when Su Chen was thinking about how to capture the entire Japanese kingdom, His Majesty Li Er, who was far away in Chang'an City handling the memorial, sneezed unprepared.
"Ah sneeze!"
"That bastard is planning me behind my back?"
His Majesty Li Er rubbed his nose and felt an ominous premonition in his heart.
He probably never imagined that because of his smart decision, Su Chen would attack the entire Japanese country.
…
The next day.
It was three o'clock in the morning again, and Su Chen slowly got up, washed up, ate, and then came to the study.
Su Chen called the old housekeeper and asked: "How is the construction of the big ship in Yangzhou going?"
As early as when he came back from Jiannan Road, Su Chen had already ordered people to build a boat.
Originally, he just wanted to use this ship to go south to collect various spices unique to the islands, and then transport them back to Guanzhong to sell them at a high price, but he didn't expect that he would accidentally use them in this gold mining operation.
"The hull is basically completed, only the iron bow that the young master mentioned is missing."
The old housekeeper said: "More than a dozen iron shops near Yangzhou are working hard on forging. According to the current progress, it will be over in more than ten days."
Su Chen nodded with satisfaction and said: "Okay, then you send someone to send the news. After the ship is built, just ask them to sail the ship to Guangtong Canal."
"At the same time, inform our iron shop to temporarily stop making farm tools and prepare to start making 50,000 weapons and armors!"
"Fifty thousand weapons and armor?"
Upon hearing this, the old housekeeper was shocked!
"If we start working at full capacity, I'm afraid it will take a little half a year!"
"It's so good, why does the young master need so many weapons?"
Su Chen did not answer his question.
"I only have one requirement for these weapons, and that is that they look decent. As for whether they are sharp or not, and whether they are durable or not, you don't have to consider them at all!"
"Those armors can be woven with just some iron sheets. Using the farm tools currently produced as a reference, the quality can reach 10% of these farm tools!"
"One percent?"
The old housekeeper said doubtfully: "Master, the things built like this are totally worthless and will be scrapped before long."
“This is the effect we want!”
Su Chen said with a smile: "How are you doing? Is there any problem with your smile?"
After thinking for a while, the old housekeeper nodded and said: "If that's the case, it's no problem. You can omit the forging and just use the mold to melt it."
"I'll notify you right away."
"Well, go quickly!"
Su Chen waved his hand and said: "Remember, start working with all your strength, the sooner the better!"
After the old housekeeper left, Su Chen called the blacksmith from Sujiazhuang over, took out a design drawing and handed it over, saying, "Can you see if you can build this stove?"
After looking at it carefully for a while, the blacksmith nodded and responded: "No problem, Master."
"How long does it take to build one?"
The blacksmith made some calculations and replied: "Half a day is enough."
"good!"
Su Chen nodded and said: "I'll ask Lao Zhao and the others to help you, and try their best to build this thing. We will try to build about fifty of it within ten days. Is there any problem?"
"If we have enough manpower, it should be possible."
The blacksmith nodded and said, "But Master, I think this furnace has a similar structure to the ones used by the Hibiki brothers to forge iron."
"It's just a little smaller. What's the purpose of making this?"
"You'll know when it's finished."
The design drawing Su Chen took out is actually the high-temperature furnace currently used for forging iron.
However, the size is only about the height of a person, which is much smaller than that of wrought iron, and the fire outlet has also been changed to some extent.
