Li Yuan's family's expansion plan is crazy, with the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is economically, militarily, technologically, or people's hearts, or even in terms of the most basic population number, it cannot support this crazy expansion method.

From an economic point of view, the Tang Dynasty, which has just experienced war and a few days after the reunification of the country, is in the recovery stage of economic and people's livelihood, and there is no surplus money to support bottomless expansion investment; Even the population has not yet returned to its pre-war level. It is difficult to leave the homeland of the fox and the people's minds, and I am afraid that such turmoil will not be supported by the people.

Technically speaking, whether it is shipbuilding technology, navigation technology or medical conditions, as a landlocked country, Datang is still in the stage of blindfolded exploration, and it is estimated that it is okay to run along the coast in the South Seas, but it is not feasible to go on an expedition to the North American continent, and it is also a large-scale expedition with a family and mouth.

Militarily speaking, although the Tang army was very strong, the enemy was not weak, and the overall national defense policy of the Tang Dynasty at present was mainly defensive, that is, the defense was more than enough and the attack was insufficient. The Tang Dynasty is surrounded by strong enemies on three sides, Tibet, Turkic, and Goguryeo, none of which are good ballasts. No matter which way the Tang Empire expands, the country's center of gravity will be biased towards expansion, although the country is not empty, but the strength will definitely be lost, and it is easy to have no then when encountering border troubles.

However, despite all the disadvantages, the Tang Emperor still decided to expand without thinking.

It is not difficult to understand that Li Yuan is already sixty years old, and if he doesn't go crazy, it's too late. There is no emperor who is not interested in expansion, even if it is the Northern Song Dynasty where Wenzhi Niu B's martial arts are in a mess, the emperor is also obsessed with expanding the territory, even if he can't beat it, he has to buy Yanyun back with money. Not to mention the Li Yuan family, who have just occupied the world and are full of ambition. In the face of the temptation of Ye Shenren's world's public opinion, where can he still endure it. Time is running out, and the thoughts of the first emperor through the ages prompted Li Yuan to support him at all costs. Crazy energy, even Emperor Yang of Sui was afraid.

Li Yuan is already sixty years old, and he really doesn't want to see the conflict between the Tiance Mansion and the crown prince as the gods said, causing his white-haired people to send black-haired people. Only when he is still in power, send one or more of them away; So that they will not be able to stand for the rest of their lives.

Although the expansion plan is crazy, Li Yuan's family is not stupid, and they are ready to go step by step, as for whether Datang will fail, and whether the endless expansion will turn Datang into another Dasui, Li Yuan has not thought about it.

Perhaps in the subconscious of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the map was brought by the gods, and the expansion was also instructed by the gods.

Not to mention the plans of the Tang Emperor's family.

After seeing Boss Ma happily leave the copy shop with books and paintings, Ye Jinyu checked the fifteen thousand yuan in his hand and was also a little excited.

Although I know that those paintings and calligraphy are sold cheaply by myself, it feels really good to have money in my hands. Thinking about how big I have grown, in addition to the transfer fee of tens of thousands of yuan from my parents when I won this store, this is the first time I have touched so much money.

Maybe it is also a good way to bring this kind of new book from the Tang Dynasty, and at the price given by Boss Ma, it is almost three hundred yuan a piece; It's a lot more expensive than making photocopies yourself, although I don't know how much a book costs in the Tang Dynasty; However, it is certain that if you use your own goods as an equivalent, the value will not be too high.

Just like when the Europeans started the Great Voyage, they commonly used to exchange glass beads for gold; If you also use glass beads to exchange books, how high can the cost of books be?

And there is no need to worry about the books of the Tang Dynasty being exchanged by themselves, the big deal is that they will use a photocopier to reprint the books exchanged from the Tang Dynasty, and then take the copies to them to use. In this case, you may not even have to provide glass beads, but you will exchange one original for two or more copies, and I believe many people are willing to exchange it.

How much does it cost to print a book yourself? A piece of paper, printed on both sides, the external price is a dime and a half, and a Tang book will not exceed 100 pages; Based on 100 pages, it is only 15 yuan, plus 5 yuan for the glue binding fee. If you die, it is twenty yuan, and the twenty yuan itself already contains profits.

exchanging two books for one book is equivalent to 40 yuan of input and 300 yuan of output; I get seven times the profit, and the profit margin is quite impressive! And the Tang Dynasty did not lose money, and through this exchange they obtained double or even more books; It's a total win-win situation.

If it doesn't work, it's a big deal to go to the Tang Dynasty to open a printing factory and make books for yourself every day using the production methods of the Tang Dynasty. Use a craftsman from time and space to give yourself a maternity leave book, are you afraid that the number of Tang books will be small?

The only thing to worry about is the acquisition ability of Boss Ma's side, a large number of Tang books have been invested, and the market is oversupplied, so I am afraid that the price of Tang books will plummet.

I don't know what Boss Ma's expression would be if he knew that he could get out the Tang books that he regarded as treasures in large quantities; Thinking that he could make Boss Ma deflated, Ye Jinyu couldn't help laughing.

However, when it came to exchanging books with the Tang Dynasty, Ye Jinyu suddenly remembered the ten copies of the three-character scriptures that he brought to the Tang Dynasty to give to Li Yuan as a gift, as if when he explained the map, those copies were gone. I don't know if Li Yuan hid it, or if he didn't pay attention to it and threw it away.

Forget it, the Three Character Classic and the Tang Book are not things to think about now, so put them aside for the time being.

I flipped through the stack of half-bills again, thinking that although I had some money in my hand, I had a lot to do.

promised Li Yuan three kinds of food crops, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and had to find a place to sell good seeds to buy seeds. Xi'an is a big city, and it seems that there is no farmland in sight, but as a provincial capital, seed companies and agricultural materials companies should not be provincial. I don't know where in Xi'an there is a place to sell this kind of thing, so I have to find someone to ask clearly.

Grain production was related to the population growth rate of the Tang Dynasty, and it was also the object of Li Yuan's attention. However, I don't know if the space gate will be pumped to prevent the entry of food crops. This is a big problem, if it is stopped by the space-time gate, then the natives of the Tang Dynasty can only travel thousands of miles to South America to fetch it. But judging from Datang's navigation technology, this is a fantasy thing.

When it comes to navigation, we have to talk about the sextant, Datang is an era when there was no Beidou navigation and no radio compass; The positioning basically depends on watching the sky at night, but watching the sky at night is a very talented, and ordinary people can't learn it; And it's not every day that you can see the stars; There should be a compass in the Tang Dynasty, but the compass is more directional and ultimately positioned, and it still has to rely on the advanced skill of observing the sky at night, but the advanced skill is too high, what if you can't learn it? still have to be sextant; The sextant is an important tool for exploring the ocean, and it is indispensable for the Tang people to go out of the continent and go to the ocean.

However, the sextant is used to measure latitude, and longitude is also needed for positioning; Modern longitude is easy to solve, just bring a mechanical watch to know the exact time. But the Tang Dynasty is much more troublesome, Ye Jinyu thought about it, the history books said that the ancient time was measured with something called a leaky pot, maybe similar to the hourglass; The other was the sundial, which he remembered as if it was a stick inserted into a disc, and the exact operation method was unknown; Ye Jinyu knows these two. Anyway, if you look at it, you can see that there are many conditions for use, and the measurement accuracy is not too accurate.

It seems that you have to bring some clocks that can accurately measure the time to the Tang Dynasty, this clock and other things are good to buy, knowing the accurate time is the just need of every modern person, although now everyone has a mobile phone to see the time, but whether it is wearing a watch with B, or a clock used in decoration, all major websites are sold. You can prepare some yourself.

It is impossible for everyone to have a timer like a clock in a short period of time, so how can we set a standard time in the Tang Dynasty?

Ye Jinyu suddenly thought of London's Big Ben, and it was best to set up a huge bell on the tower of Xuanwu Gate as a symbol of the zero degree meridian.

When he thought that after moving Big Ben to the Tang Dynasty, the people of Chang'an listened to the time of Big Ben to work every day, and then listened to the time of Big Ben to work, Ye Jinyu felt that there was a kind of funny taste.

The trouble is that it's not sure if the Space-Time Gate doesn't allow things like clocks to pass through, but even if it doesn't, it doesn't matter. Clocks and watches, not like food crops, not grown in the ground, but hand-made products, even if the real thing can't be carried, then find some big clock design drawings to bring over, let the Tang Dynasty craftsmen try to make it; Even if the technical workers of the Tang Dynasty couldn't make small watches due to the limitations of technology, the big and stupid table clock or standing clock was always fine. As for the accuracy of the time, don't worry about it at all, can't you still bring your smartphone over, accurate to milliseconds?

Clocks and watches are easy to get, but I don't know where to sell this professional instrument, so I have to look for it on a treasure network. By the way, it's not enough to just buy it, but also to learn to use it, not only to learn to use it yourself, but also to teach the aborigines of the Tang Dynasty.

Maybe the space door will prevent the entry of the sextant, but since the Tang Dynasty technicians can make clocks and watches, are you still afraid of the sextant?

In addition to that, I have to buy a few large globes and various magnifying glasses. This is something that I thought of in the Tang Dynasty to bring with me, and it was regarded as a gift to the Tang Emperor; Of course, it's still the same premise, you have to be able to bring it over!

As for the rest, I can't remember it for the time being, so I'll buy it when I see it.

Close the door and go to the supermarket first.

There is a relatively large supermarket near the copy shop, known as a one-stop shopping supermarket, where everything used to eat, drink and lazar is available; Ye Jinyu has only one person to open a store here, in order to ensure that no business escapes from his hands, he must stay in the store around the clock and wait for business to come to his door; So the less time to go out, the better, since the store has been open for so long, in addition to the copying consumables market, he has gone farthest, and it is also the place he has gone to the most, probably this supermarket. One stop can solve the problem.

Men generally have a strong purpose when buying things, whether they go to the supermarket or the mall, they plan what they want to buy before they go out, and then directly find the destination, pay for it, and take it home; At least that's how Ye Jinyu buys things. Unlike when a woman goes shopping, she can try on clothes from the street to the end of the street, from the bottom to the top, and maybe just buy a pair of socks after trying them all day.

But today Ye Jinyu feels like a woman, and when she arrives at the supermarket, she wants to buy everything, and she has to buy everything.

Tableware, stationery, daily necessities, washing, cleaning, cosmetics, beverages, tobacco, alcohol, non-staple food, rice, wheat, condiments, tea, nuts, egg products, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, mahjong, grills, yo-yos, roasted coffee, ballpoint pens, batteries, teacups, calculators, etc.

Basically, he took a sample of each type of goods, and even took a quilt for him, and he couldn't fit a few carts, and finally the supermarket saw how far away the things he bought, and provided door-to-door delivery services before transporting all the things home.

Looking at the harvest piled up in the compartment, although it cost thousands of yuan, Ye Jinyu was very satisfied;

But he wasn't happy for a few seconds, and then slapped his thigh: "Impulsive, impulsive, I bought so many things, if I can't bring them there, I can only digest them myself; This bottle and can, which year and month will be used up. ”

Although I have already bought too much, I still have to continue shopping, this time to buy online.

The first one to search was a sextant, but the first one to pop out of a certain treasure was a telescope; Well, the telescope is also a good thing, I didn't expect it; Click on the telescope page; What kind of multi-functional telescope is positioning, ranging, altimetry, angle and velocity, it seems that this thing can top a sextant, it seems to be very useful, the price is cheap, as long as three or four hundred, but look at it again, to charge; Visually, the Tang Dynasty only had lightning for the time being.

However, telescopes can indeed be bought, and I searched for telescopes; There are a lot of things, from single tubes to double tubes, from dozens to thousands, all kinds of goods. I was dazzled, and I went to the Internet to find tips on choosing a telescope, and after looking at it for a long time, people were confused, and then I remembered that I was going to pick a sextant.

I went back to see the sextant, which was not cheap at all, but a few thousand smaller.

There is also a table clock, purely mechanical, this is quite cheap, you can buy one for 100 yuan.

Originally, Ye Jinyu, a grain seed, planned to look for a seed company, but he had a whim to search for corn seeds on a certain treasure, and a lot of them actually popped up.

With Ye Jinyu's life experience in the countryside for more than ten years, he has seen his parents grow sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, although the specific planting method and planting season can not be remembered clearly, but he knows that sweet potatoes and potatoes can be directly planted with edible tubers, in other words, seed potatoes can be bought directly in the vegetable market or supermarket; Only this corn seems to have to buy good seeds every year. There are many kinds of corn on a treasure, and Ye Jinyu knew for the first time that corn originally had a feed type.

Buy, buy, buy, add to cart. When I went to the shopping cart to settle out, a few things were calculated and I would casually cost tens of thousands, plus the cost of supermarket shopping, and the more than 10,000 yuan I earned from Boss Ma was almost thrown out before it was hot.

Boss Ma gave cash, and Ye Jinyu hadn't had time to deposit, so the balance on the card was insufficient. You have to deposit money before you can place an order.

Money is useless! But the money has to be spent; Although the mysterious identity of the god can make the natives of the Tang Dynasty fear themselves, and they can use this identity to get some of what they want in a short period of time, if they only ask for it for a long time and do not pay, it will only make this line collapse in the end.

And spend a small amount of money to get some materials that are not available in the Tang Dynasty but have market needs, and use them to exchange the benefits they need with the natives of the Tang Dynasty, so that both parties can benefit, so that the business can continue for a long time.

How can we get the most out of Datang space? In Ye Jinyu's view, as long as the most powerful person in the Tang Dynasty is the Tang Emperor, it is possible to get more resources from the Tang Dynasty time and space and make himself prosperous in this world. In his thoughts, any emperor who wants to become a great man will not reject the idea of expanding his territory, coupled with the fact that he is not used to seeing the white race spreading to the world when he studies history, and the Mayans, who are also yellow people, are extinct, and the Indians are kept in captivity.

Therefore, the world map he provided to the Tang Emperor opened the eyes of the Tang Emperor and his sons, grew ambitions, and instigated the Tang Emperor to divide his sons into these so-called borderless lands;

Ye Jinyu never seriously thought that the more the emperor of the Tang Dynasty made trouble, the more territory he occupied; Then the materials, equipment, and even knowledge provided to him from the future time and space will become more important, and the more dependent the Tang Empire of the entire Tang Dynasty time and space will be on Ye Jinyu as a technology provider; These are very important for Ye Jinyu, who wants to monopolize the business of a time and space; After all, your business can only last for a long time when others need you, right?

Although Ye Jinyu didn't understand why he did this, he did it subconsciously.
