Outside the city of Xianyang, above the Wei River.

At this time, after the return of Win Changsheng.

Right now, Ying Changsheng was standing by the river, looking at one boat after another on the river.

Well, after returning from the coast, Win Changsheng also faced a new problem.

That's the question.

Now, the matter of the ships of the Great Qin Empire.

Boats are an important thing.

In any era, water transport is the most convenient mode of transportation.

At this time, Ying Changsheng couldn't help frowning as he looked at the inland river boats on the Wei River one after another.

The reason is simple.

Compared with other methods, the navigation and shipping methods of the Great Qin Empire seem to be very backward.

At this time, Win Changsheng was saying to the public on the side.

"What do you think of the boats on the river?"

"It's good, there are many ships coming and going, and it is extremely convenient to transport goods!"

Gong Lose said without thinking.

For these wooden inland river vessels, the public transport is still extremely satisfied.

But Win Changsheng shook his head again and again, and he said to Gong Zhi.

"In my son's opinion, these ships are not a good thing, you don't know, now my ships in Daqin are all wooden, but wooden things are not easy to do!"

What does that mean? Is it possible that there is no wood in the world to cut down? ”

Gong Yi Shangzao smiled, and said a little carelessly to win Changsheng.

Well, at this time, it was in the Qin Dynasty, and it was in the early stages of the origin of Chinese civilization.

In this day and age, wood is really easy to find.

Don't say it's anything else.

The Loess Plateau of later generations, in Daqin at this time, was not the Loess Plateau at all, but a large forest, and these forests were gradually cut down until after the Tang Dynasty in history.

Therefore, at the moment, after hearing that Ying Changsheng was worried about the lack of wood.

It was inevitable that he let out a chuckle, obviously not taking the words of winning Changsheng to heart.

Seeing this situation, Ying Changsheng had no choice but to sigh and explain to the public loss in front of him.

"Not now, but what about the future? Now that I'm Daqin, the demand for wood is getting bigger and bigger, don't talk about the side, how much wood will have to be consumed if the Zheng He treasure ship is built? However, this wood is not easy to obtain! ”

"After a tree is planted to grow, it will take at least a few decades to become a tree, and for such a long time, planting will not be able to catch up with felling, so I am worried that in time, my Daqin's wood will be useless!"

After winning Changsheng's words.

For a while, Gong Yishang's face suddenly sank.

Well, as Tongying Changsheng said.

Daqin's wood, it seems, is really a little consumed too quickly.

For several years.

The Great Qin Empire consumed more wood each year than in previous decades.

Because, with the improvement of living standards, the people of Daqin have more demand for furniture and other equipment.

In such a situation, the consumption of wood involuntarily increases a lot.

In addition to this, due to the massive laying of railways.

Under the railway, sleepers are to be laid.

This significantly increases the consumption of wood.

Other than that, in addition to these things.

The telephone poles used on the telegraph lines laid were also made of wood.

In addition, Daqin is now carrying out a large-scale shipbuilding movement.

Don't really say it.

At this time, Daqin's wood consumption is a bit amazing.

Thinking of this, Gong Yi Shangzao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, realizing the seriousness of the problem, he looked at Ying Changsheng in front of him, and then said to Ying Changsheng.

"That's really a problem!"

"Don't say anything else, maybe in time, I Daqin will have no wood to build ships!"

"Therefore, I think that the imperial court should restrict private logging, and in addition, it should also plant trees on a large scale while cutting down trees, so that this can be prevented!"

"Not bad!"

Gong Lose's voice fell, and Ying Changsheng nodded with satisfaction, and he said to the latter.

"This thing, it's more like you say!"

"Now, my Daqin needs to do this!"

"Of course, in addition to these, we should also use a different way of thinking to solve the current problem!"

"Oh?"

Win Changsheng's words, the moment they fell.

For a while, Gong Yi Shangzao was a little surprised, and he looked at Ying Changsheng suspiciously.

I don't understand, what does it mean to win Changsheng.

And Win Changsheng was not ambiguous, he directly told Gong Lose Shangzao his own method, only to hear Win Changsheng open his mouth with a smile.

"As you said, prohibiting the common people from cutting down trees or planting trees should indeed be done, but well, this son has a good idea!"

"Would you like to ask the Nineteenth Prince to come and hear it?"

For a while, Gong Yi Shangzao couldn't help but show a look of doubt, he looked at Ying Changsheng in front of him, and then asked puzzledly.

And winning Changsheng is not ambiguous, he explained to the public and the loss.

"My son's solution, if nothing else, is to reduce the demand for wood through some alternatives!"

"Oh?"

For a while, with Ying Changsheng's words falling.

I couldn't help but be a little confused.

He didn't understand what Ying Changsheng meant by what he said.

I saw that Gong Yi's eyebrows were tightly locked, and he said to Win Changsheng.

"But, Nineteen Princes, where can I find this replacement?"

"Why don't you know that there is something to replace this wood?"

"Haha, not now!"

Win Changsheng laughed a few times, and said to Gong Shangzao.

Yes, it is not easy to replace wood.

Because there aren't many alternatives to be found.

However, he also has his own way to win Changsheng.

That is, through some other means, to get something, to replace some other uses.

I only saw Win Changsheng, and said with a smile to the Gong.

"My son's method is actually very simple!"

"That is, start with a few places, and now, in my opinion, the most suitable place to start with the alternative, is not somewhere else, that is shipbuilding!"

"Shipbuilding?"

For a while, with the voice of Ying Changsheng falling.

Gong Yi Shangzao couldn't help but be a little confused, he looked at Win Changsheng on the side in surprise, and wondered what Win Changsheng was planning to use to build a ship.

"What the Nineteenth Prince said, it is indeed feasible, shipbuilding, the demand for wood is huge, and the demand is the best and strongest slow-growing high-quality wood, but the minister really doesn't know, what can replace this high-quality wood for shipbuilding?"

After that, Gong Chuan Shangzao looked at Win Changsheng curiously, wanting to hear what Win Changsheng could say.

And Win Changsheng was also vague, he smiled and explained to the father-in-law.

"It's easy!"

"As for what to replace......
