On the question of whether the fire robbery could be imitated by the Tatars, the opinions of Liu Yong and others were very unanimous.

In the Dayang Dynasty, the emperor was also very helpless. If you also have a musketeer army, you can match the Han army.

When Prime Minister Lunta reported such a result to Naleng, Naleng was extremely disappointed and annoyed, and slapped the table and said angrily: "It's all a bunch of waste." ”

Lenta shuddered and hurriedly said, "Holy Lord, please dispel your anger, this musket is indeed very difficult to make. ”

Na Leng asked: "How can the Hua Han Dynasty be built?" ”

"In the Hua Han Dynasty, there were special factories for manufacturing, and I heard that there were several factories that produced different parts. Some of them are skilled craftsmen. ”

Then he asked, "Then we can't build a factory?" ”

Lunta said: "Back to the saint, the minister only heard that there was a factory in the Huahan Dynasty, but what was in the factory, then it was unknown. ”

Then he said, "What else can there be?" Isn't it just a craftsman? ”

"I'm afraid it's more than that!" ”

"And what else?" Nalen asked.

Lenta said, "I don't know about this minister. ”

"Won't you let the spies investigate?" Na Leng asked angrily.

"Our spies can't get in at all," Renta said. ”

"Then find a way to bribe the people in the factory? It's stupid. Naleng said, twisting his head again, angry to himself.

Lenta said: "Don't dare to bribe, there was a bribery from one of our spies, not only did it not succeed, but it was reported." was slashed by the Hua Han Dynasty. ”

Naleng frowned and said, "So powerful? ”

Lenta said: "The saint doesn't know, the craftsmen in the arsenal of the Hua Han Dynasty are all highly paid. It's like being an official. Can they take bribes, you say? Moreover, these people are specially selected and all very patriotic. ”

"Then that's going to be hard." Nalen shook his head and said, looking very helpless.

Lenta continued, "Holy Lord, even if we bribe the people inside, we can't replicate their factory. Because each of them has a different division of labor, and they only do the same. You have to bribe tens of thousands of people in these factories to know the manufacturing process. Moreover, the minister also heard that it would cost 50,000 taels of silver to build such an arsenal, and the craftsman's salary would be 100,000 taels a year. Even if we can build it, we don't have the money to support it! ”

When Naleng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Why do you use so much silver?" ”

"That's right!" Renta nodded.

In fact, what Lenta said was a bit exaggerated, but he was just thinking about deceiving the emperor, otherwise he would be arranged to build a factory again. This factory could not be built at all. He didn't know how to build it. In order not to make trouble for himself, he could only exaggerate in front of Na Leng.

But Nalen believed it, and he had always believed Lenta's words.

"Oh, this Hua Han Dynasty is so rich!" Nalen said in amazement.

Lenta said: "That's right, the current Huahan Dynasty is even richer than the previous Dahua Dynasty. They now have opened a seaport to the outside world, and the annual income from foreign trade alone is terrifying. They also set up the Ministry of Industry, which now produces steel, and buys a steady stream of Western Bavarian lands, as well as Arabia. Every year, you can earn millions of taels of gold. Of course it's rich! ”

The more he listened to it for two years, the higher his brows wrinkled. The more my heart beats. He felt that such a strong opponent was too difficult to defeat.

"Hey! I didn't expect this Hua Han Dynasty to be so rich. But look at us again, the poor are almost unable to open the pot. Na Leng said helplessly and resentfully.

Lenta said: "Holy Lord, in the long run, the gap between our Great Yang Dynasty and the Huahan Dynasty will become bigger and bigger!" ”

"So what do you say?" Na Leng asked curiously.

Lenta frowned and pondered for a moment, and said, "This can't be beaten, and it can't be relied on, it's really difficult to do!" The only way is to hope that the economy of the Great Yang Dynasty can develop. In this way, you can still have a fight with the Huahan Dynasty. ”

Naleng said: "At the beginning of this year, the annual supply of the ten western countries came, and together with the annual supply of the eastern fresh country, the immediate problem was solved. But the imperial court does not have the ability to make its own blood, and it is not a long-term solution to rely on the annual offerings of more than a dozen countries. ”

Lenta said, "The Holy One is worried! ”

"I said Lunta, didn't you say that the economy has improved this year? I'm waiting to be a brother with you. But it's the second half of the year, and things haven't improved a little bit in the economy? Nalen asked.

Lenta said, "Holy Lord, there is still some improvement, at least our trade volume has increased. ”

Naleng rolled his eyes and said, "I have learned that the ten western countries have no silver to trade with us. If the goods shipped are not bought in Islam, they will lose money at all. Moreover, the country of Naisi can trade with the Hua Han Dynasty, and our goods are not competitive with the goods of the Hua Han Dynasty. That is, some of our fur goods are still selling well. ”

When he said this, Lenta broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't expect Nalen to know so much. It seems that although Naleng gave him all the things on the surface, behind the scenes, he was looking for people to inquire around.

"Prime Minister, why don't you speak?" Nalen asked.

"Holy, what the Holiness says is the truth." Renta had no choice but to say.

Then he asked, "Then why don't you tell me?" ”

"The saint, the minister is afraid that the saint will worry." Renta said.

Na Leng calmed his face, thought for a while, and said, "I know your hard work, but I want to know the real situation, do you know?" ”

Lenta quickly knelt down and said, "The minister is guilty, please punish the saint." ”

Nalen said, "Get up." I don't want to punish you. Now, it's up to you to do something. ”

"Thank you for your grace." Renta wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead and stood up, her heart still pounding. I thought, "I just got away with it!" ”

Na Leng continued: "Actually, I can't blame you, no matter what, the money of the ten western countries is in our pockets. And it solved the financial crisis of the imperial court at once. The army's salary can also support it for two years. ”

Lenta said, "But the Holy One, these ten western kingdoms are all small countries after all, and their wealth is limited. If you pay so much this year, it is estimated that they will not be able to take it even if they want to next year. ”

Naleng nodded and said, "Yes, we are fishing with all our might!" ”

"That's right, Holy One." Renta nodded. The return of the financial empire
