The question of the future of the country would seem too frivolous to anyone. That's why it takes a lot of people to work together.

Looking at the single situation on the sand table, everyone also fell silent.

The nascent Han kingdom was still surrounded by the Crimean Khanate, and there was no other force to help them except the unreliable Genoese merchants.

"This situation reminds me of the Song Dynasty after Jianyan Nandu. Surrounded by enemies! Chen Hanlin said.

Southern Song Dynasty. Qin Cang thought about it, and seemed to have a little feeling. There are enemies everywhere.

"That's different. The Great Song Dynasty is not only full of enemies outside the country, but also under the throne and within the whole world, they are all enemies of the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, there is still a big gap. Qin Changan shook his head first.

Qin Cang then remembered that the emperor of the Song Dynasty was full of poisonous snakes and jackals under the chair.

"Each country has its own internal affairs, and how can it be said that it is the same. The three hundred and nineteenth year of the Great Song Dynasty has its own unspeakable features. Meng Zhuoyan stopped the discussion about the Song Dynasty. It's a bit of a bad luck after all.

"Forget it, let's talk about something else. What are the recent plans, take a look at them. Qin Cang asked Meng Zhuoyan to take out all the things he had thought about before and occasionally remembered. In today's parlance, it's called brainstorming.

Plans were laid out. Some even have only a few lines of words.

"Gold mines? Silver? ”

"Shall I see, reclaim farmland on the other side of the sea?"

"Donetsk? Where is this? ”

......

"Okay guys, let me explain it briefly." Qin Cang said with a smile.

"In your hands, those are some trivial things that Prime Minister Meng and I planned. That is, possible development matters in the future. Of course, most of it was concentrated in the Crimean Khanate-controlled region of Tezenica, which was the northern shore of the Sea of Azov. I have to say that I grew up in the Niper River as a child. The abundant minerals on both sides of the Niper River, the fertile land and the city of Kiev are our future goals. It can be said that whoever owns the Nieper River will get the only capital to dominate the region! ”

"What about the other one?" Chen Hanlin, who is most interested in military affairs, asked.

"That's a good question! This second is what we want to do next! Qin Cang laughed and pointed to Donetsk, Lugansk, Kharkiv and other places.

Ukraine is blessed with heavy industrial resources that are unique in the world! The iron ore of Kraft Bass and the iron ore of Kerch are the most super-large mines for a while! Donetsk's Donbass coalfields are among the best in the world! These few super resources alone can allow Ukraine to take off! Not to mention the large number of large mines such as the Great Tokmak manganese deposit, the Muzhiyev gold-silver deposit, the Maiske gold mine, the Bobrikov gold mine, the Zhirov copper mine in the Volyn region, and so on!

Coupled with Ukraine's world's only three black soil belts, strong agricultural resources and industrial raw materials, Ukraine has been in a period of division for hundreds of years and has not been able to rise!

It can be said that by controlling Ukraine, Qin Cang is qualified to confront any force!

"Here! There are not many Tatar tribes there now, and we have sent men to build a forward trade den in this area (Mariupol). Armed immigration at the same time! Take control of the marine resources there! Cultivate the land! And then continue to send people deep into the Donbass and other places! There are very large coal fields there! After a pause, Qin Cang said to Chen Hanlin, who was born in Daibei: "It is by no means less than Jindi!" ”

"And! Attention everyone! And! There are also a number of iron mines here in Donetsk! And the salt mines! Sulfur associated mine! And the black soil here is fertile, which is an important place for reclamation! Once Donetsk is fully controlled, the century-old foundation of our Han will be laid! ”

The more Qin Cang spoke, the more excited he became, and the breathing of the people around him couldn't help but become heavy! Steel! Coal! Brimstone! Salt! Timber! Grain!

"This place will go down! I can conquer the local Tatars myself! Chen Hanlin Huo stood up and asked for battle. Several others supported such a decision.

"Don't rush." Qin Cang smiled and said, "There are many things we have to say, more than this. ”

"Donetsk, of course, is the first place, but we can't ignore other places! You see, the Genoese guard Tana, the mouth of the Don River. From here is another central area of the Tatars. We also urgently need it here. Because we need to get the goods through! Deliver it there! This is also a planning direction for the future. ”

At this time, Qin Changan said: "Your Majesty, what about the west?" Isn't it also a place of abundance to go out of Chizhou to Odessa or elsewhere on the westernmost coast? ”

"Let's hold Azoh in my hand first. It was the territory of the Genoese. Our first ship has just hit the sea, what to fight with the Genoese? The Azovhai was important only to the Genoese as slaves. So we don't have much at stake. Once you get to the Black Sea and compete with them, then you will have to go to war without going to war. It's not good for us! ”

"Shall we fight or not?" Chen Hanlin asked anxiously, not at all like an elegant literati.

"Of course you have to fight. It's just not with a weapon. Qin Cang smiled mysteriously, "Gold coins are the most terrifying weapon in the world!" This is also the secret of Zhang Qi's appointment as the president of our chamber of commerce. ”

Sitting at the back, Zhang Qi, who had not spoken, smiled. It's just that the laughter is a little weird. It seems that it is not unreasonable for the mercury man to classify him to the prime minister's level, but he sold it to Qin Cang at a discount.

"In any case, if you don't have any other suggestions, let's focus on Donetsk first. Haji Ghlai's reign was not precarious there. This is another Harachian territory. Prepare ten or more sabers, this amount Zhang Qi can grasp by yourself. In any case, the harbor by the sea must be built! With coal, we have a way to make better steel! You can get enough sulfur too! Go for it! ”

......

The second question ended with a discussion that followed. The decision is to move the mouth, but the small details under the general direction are the most difficult to grasp. Immigration, how much to go? How many people will be transferred from Chen Jia's shipyard? In addition, if we move inland and build roads, cement factories must be opened. However, lime, the raw material urgently needed by the cement plant, is only produced in the Crimean Mountains.

All sorts of problems are involved, and everyone is anxious.

But in any case, there is hope for tomorrow.
