Of course, there are countries that can never be learned.
Of course, there are countries that can never be learned.
It is not because it is not smart enough or because it has no conditions, but because its entire nation is generally full of ambitions and a high-minded and low-key attitude, it has taken a big step:
I still can’t make a rifle clearly and want to produce fifth-generation aircraft on my own. Before I figured out the basic industry, I was busy producing tanks and aircraft carriers.
The result was that the advanced parts and technologies of other countries were bought and put together, and when they came out after thirty years of hard work, they found that they were already behind.
There is actually a rule in this thing. The more modern things are, the more they pay attention to industrial foundation and technological accumulation.
Without an industrial foundation, when producing certain products, you will find that the screw is not qualified and the power is not large enough, so you can only buy it.
It’s similar to having no technical accumulation. If you find this and that, there are problems, so you can only ask foreign experts for help.
As a result, no matter what is made, it is ridiculously expensive, and it is also because the parts of various countries are integrated together and the whole body is full of problems.
Having a strong industrial foundation and technical reserves is two different things. No matter what, you can copy it in a short time by dismantling it. It is both cheap and easy to use, and it has more functions than native ones.
Shen Bing invented things in this era was thoughtful and enlightened.
In other words, we can only try our best to prolong the time of technology spreading and cannot stop it.
What Shen Bing didn't expect was...
Originally, he thought that textile technology and other things would spread to the Central Plains faster.
The reason is very simple. The Central Plains is their own people. If anyone wants to come to Beidi to learn technology, there is no need to use family members like the Huns.
Even if the Qin people were arrested as spies, they would not be punished... At this time, Qin Rules did not have any "Anti-Unfair Competition Law" to protect commercial secrets.
On the other hand, these craftsmen working in the Northland are all free craftsmen. They can either ignore them or leave the Northland at any time, and then they will bring their technology to various parts of the Central Plains to spread.
However, this is not the case.
On the way to Mount Tai this time, Shen Bing found that there were too many water trucks, but most of them were still in the primitive rice pounding stage.
There are almost no textile workshops, let alone gunpowder.
Shen Bing guessed that textile workshops may be because of the resistance of handicraftsmen: If a large number of textile workshops appear, it means that all handicraftsmen who make a living by textile fabrics will be unemployed, so a process is required in the middle.
Gunpowder is because there is no need for war within the Central Plains.
What should we do if there is no need for war?
Maybe it's just making firecrackers and making fun.
At the same time, Ying Zheng did not want the production of gunpowder to spread on a large scale among the people.
Even if the people have metal in their hands, they are worried that they will rebel. They want to concentrate all the metal and the rich in Xianyang, so how could they let the people make gunpowder?
The North needed to make gunpowder because it was used to resist the Huns in war.
However, when facing the Qin army equipped with "Pi Li Fireball", the Huns were under pressure to survive and die, and had a very urgent motivation to learn secretly.
So a strange scene happened at this moment:
The technology in the North spread not toward the Central Plains but toward the Huns.
Shen Bing could only order Wang Ben to investigate the spies, especially the gunpowder workshop, and on the other hand, he hurried back with Fusu...
Originally, Shen Bing planned to "attract investment" in various parts of the Central Plains.
After all, the North at this time needed a group of experienced businessmen who could take the lead.
Yunhua needs to coordinate the overall situation in the North, and it is impossible to lead the caravan to the Western Regions to do business in person.
But since time is so tight, let’s talk about it, and this is not a big deal.
Because businessmen's sense of smell is always the most sensitive, one day, business in the north can make dozens of times the profit. Chen Bing believes that he would not need to "invest" at that time, businessmen from all over the world would consciously rush into the north.
I traveled day and night for more than ten days and rushed back to Jiuyuan.
As mentioned earlier, the nine reasons are rich in minerals and geographically located, and are the center of military production in the Northland. Gunpowder and the new iron workshop are all concentrated here.
Wang Ben frowned and reported to Chen Bing:
"General, the gunpowder method may have been leaked and the Huns have learned about it."
"The Huns are so powerful that several spies have escaped before we can investigate."
"And these spies have been working in the gunpowder workshop for some days."
Chen Bing nodded helplessly. What he cared most was gunpowder.
Because the Huns had no foundation and textiles had no conditions... especially textiles, you had to learn how to grow ramie.
If the Huns learned to grow things? Can they still be called nomadic people?
Then wasn't it tied to the same place by the fields?
And is light, heat, water, soil and land suitable for planting?
But gunpowder is different. This thing can be used directly to improve combat effectiveness in the battlefield at a certain level? The Huns have always been trying to do this? Of course, they will overcome difficulties and achieve it.
What Chen Bing didn't know was that Mao Dun was worried about making gunpowder at this time.
He got the method and formula of gunpowder, right? Even the spy brought some raw materials to display in front of Maodun.
However, Maodun was stunned by the raw materials.
What about saltpeter, sulfur, tung oil, dry paint, maru...
Maodun hasn't even heard of these things? Where can I know how to get them?
Not just Maodun doesn't understand? No one in the entire Huns can understand... Nomads make a living by grazing? There is no need to know the growth laws of crops, and of course they don't understand soil, minerals, and even more so, they don't need to study climate and astronomy Therefore, in terms of knowledge and discovery, the farming nation is much less inadequate.
At this moment, I suddenly faced these saltpeter and other things? In Maodun's eyes, aren't these just soil?
Saltpeter is white soil.
Sulfur is yellow soil.
Charcoal is black soil.
Can these soils become gunpowder by mixing them together?
Come? �
After explaining for a long time, Maodun realized that these "earth" are not just right in color, but are mined.
But where do you look for these mines on this endless grassland?
In fact, the Mongolian Plateau is a place with extremely rich mineral resources, and many mines have proven reserves ranked first in Asia.
But that was the case when modern times had advanced prospecting equipment? At this time, the Huns' understanding of the land under their feet was afraid that it would grow grass and grow trees to feed cattle and sheep.
Maodun said to himself:
"What should I do?"
"If you only know how to make but have no raw materials? Isn't it still subject to the Central Plains?"
After thinking about it, Maodun gritted his teeth and ordered:
"First exchange cattle and sheep fur for raw materials."
"If you order someone to explore, you can find as much as you can!"
Needless to say, the people used to explore this mine are naturally captured Qin people.
Maodun even decided to send people to sneak south into the Central Plains, and then spend a lot of money to ask mining craftsmen to go north to explore the grassland.
