The large iron smelting plant in the north was the most shocking thing that King Chang Hu had seen in the past few years.
Tall chimneys, steel-making furnaces, and huge buildings are ancient wonders with shocking power. Of course, there are many wonders in Taotang, such as the Monument to the Hero of Dayu, which also made King Changhu very envious.
Each of the countless characters carved on it is a warrior hero who appeared in the Central Plains. On the grasslands, such heroes will definitely be enshrined as kings, but in the Central Plains, the king's responsibilities are even more important than these heroes.
, the king dare not call himself a hero, and the hero and the king complement each other.
If it is said that later generations have exquisiteness and fineness, then King Changhu of this era is the fineness of Tang Dynasty.
As the old saying goes, Tao Tang was also a Tang Dynasty! He directly transformed into an envoy to the Tang Dynasty.
In the steel furnace of Taotang Ironworks, every drop of molten iron made his blood boil, and every soot penetrated deep into his heart, making him unable to stop.
There are also the large observatory on the hilltop in the north of Taotang City and those talking horn horns. Like all the leaders who saw the broadcast for the first time, King Chang Hu's first reaction was that there was a villain inside the horn.
There are also light bulbs, papers and other things that dazzle him and dazzle him.
He wished he could move all this back, but he also knew that this was impossible. First, he had no money, second, he had no technology, third, he had no population, and finally, he could not learn the knowledge here at all.
Moreover, when he heard that there was a city in the far south that was more powerful and prosperous than Taotang, he was completely shocked. In his opinion, if there is really a place where the ancestors and gods live in this world,
Then it must be Tao Tang.
If there is a city greater than Taotang, what kind of people will live in it?
So, with some unreliable thinking, the people of the northern grassland came to the conclusion that the city farther south should be the god of heaven per capita, with a life span of two to three hundred years, and an average height of three and a half meters.
Hands can kill tigers and leopards
It would be great if there were such a great and prosperous city on the grassland.
King Changhu could not help but imagine that if he really built a one-to-one No. 2 Taotang City on the grassland, he would fill the city with cattle and sheep, and he would no longer have to fear the invasion and attacks of hostile tribes!
At this time, the hunting tribes were still very, very weak. The city walls of Hu Buyu State were actually just a bunch of short earth walls with fences on them. During the war, they played almost no defensive role.
.
War is something that only belongs to super-large tribal city-states such as Huaxia, Dongyi, Xihuang, Hongzhou, Baiyue, etc. For the northern grassland area, let alone war, you can run on the prairie for three to five days without any
You may not see any living people.
This is also a common problem among hunting tribes and later nomadic tribes. Regardless of the large territory they occupy, there may not be many people. They rely on the powerful cavalry to roam around. But now a large number of horses are in the hands of the Central Plains.
He took out the stirrups and brought out the cavalry. He then pulled out a machine gun and shot the cavalry out.
But in the northern region, horses have not yet begun to be domesticated, let alone cavalry, and there are not many infantry. With a roar on the grassland, ten tribes can be gathered in three days, which is already a high price.
Some tribes even numbered only a dozen people, which could not match the population base of the Great River Civilization.
Of course, if left alone, they will grow fully. Every civilization is weak when it starts.
You never know how powerful you will be in the future.
However, even so, there are still a few "big" tribes on the grassland, and plundering battles will also occur. After all, there are only so many areas suitable for habitation.
What King Chang Hu wanted to do was to order a batch of kitchen knives from the ironworks.
Actually, he wanted to order combat knives, but the ironworks did not accept external orders for combat knives, which meant that you outsiders were not qualified to hold controlled knives.
So he could only settle for the next best thing.
“Chop knives are also knives, but the attack range is a bit shorter. It doesn’t matter. Buy more and spin out when you encounter someone.”
“The Zhenmeng clan is so arrogant. They robbed our pasture. We must bring someone with a kitchen knife to chop it back!”
King Chang Hu’s mind has already begun to automatically perform the scene of "Young and Dangerous Knife Fight in Ancient Times". Thinking about the intimidation of riding a cow and sheep to the opposite livestock fence, carrying a kitchen knife
Northern grassland area 1, Taihang North, the sword fighting room has been opened, if you die, you will die, there will be no resurrection, one life challenge, come online quickly!
The opponent still holds stone tools in his hands, but he directly uses steel to do it, and uses two kitchen knives to do it from Hohhot to Xilin Gol. Who dares to disapprove?
Then, if you don’t want to buy a shield, why don’t you just buy a pot?
There are policies and countermeasures. The wisdom of the masses is infinite and they can always find alternatives.
“Check the list, kitchen knives, iron pots, spoons, steel pipes”
King Chang Hu asked his men to calculate the required goods in the purchase list and send cattle and sheep to the Central Plains. These cattle and sheep were also sold for a lot of money. According to his estimation, five hundred kitchen knives are always enough, right?
“It’s not enough. I can only buy one hundred and twenty kitchen knives, because I also need to buy an iron pan and a steel pipe, which are very expensive.”
“Chief, I heard that there is a construction site nearby with a lot of steel pipes inside”
Pick up garbage at the construction site?
Not allowed.
King Chang Hu interrupted the plans of his men and told them that they were not allowed to take things randomly on the construction site. If they were caught later, they would have to pay for it. It was not easy to make this kind of money. Don't do anything illegal or disciplinary.
There are many rules in Taotang. Don't ask for trouble. King Chang Hu did a lot of stupid things two years ago. Now that I think about it, I feel very sad.
These are the lessons learned by our predecessors (referring to ourselves) with blood and money.
“If you want to wholesale kitchen knives, why not come to me? I have a way.”
Yuzai came to the stall alone, frightening the squatting people.
King Chang Hu looked at Yu Zai strangely and asked tentatively: "What do you mean? We just bought kitchen knives and went back to the grassland in the north."
His accent was a bit thick, but Nu Zai had also been taught by some soldiers and could understand him. At this time, he pretended that he had connections in the ironworks. Not to mention kitchen knives, perhaps more powerful control knives could also be given to him.
You got it!
“Oh? If you really have this ability, I will give you all the sheep and yams I brought!”
King Chang Hu’s eyes suddenly lit up!
Good brother, please be careful!
Between heaven and earth, time flows by without giving anyone a chance to look back.
If you could do it all over again, you would definitely not discuss knife violence in the street.
"when!"
The bars were closed, and King Chang Hu and several of his brothers were imprisoned in the detention center of Taotang. The director was the Xie Zhi. This cell was also the cell where Lao Zi was imprisoned two years ago.
The light bulb turned on, and Ruzai sat in front of the table, holding a pen and paper in his hand.
King Changhu recorded a sincere confession, saying that he had made his own plan to import kitchen knives in batches from Taotang, and then go to the northern grasslands to fight for hegemony and eliminate the Zhenmeng clan.
定 定 妘 了 了, you, suspected smuggling. Whenever you take the goods that you bring out without approval, even if you take the big dung, that is also smuggling.
