Chapter 12 Meng Yi Presents Books

"What is the sea like?" The next day, after leaving the post station, Meng Yi took the initiative to ask.

"Water, water everywhere." Zhao Si replied boredly.

"As the Great Kyushu said? Surrounded by oceans? Meng Yi asked again.

"Well, there are storms from time to time, and capsizing at sea is basically ten deaths." Zhao Si nodded, but he was interested in the Great Kyushu Theory in Meng Yi's mouth.

Is there already a certain amount of research on overseas in this era?

"What is the Great Kyushu Say?" Zhao Si spoke.

Meng Yi smiled and sent someone to send books such as "Zou Zi", "Zou Zi The End", "The Great Sage" and so on.

"After reading it, if you have any doubts, you can ask me." Meng Yi said with a smile, his impression of Xu Fu was not very good, and his perception of Zhao Si, a young man who took the ship and went to sea to live up to the king's order, was better.

Zhao Si looked at the bamboo tube in his hand and fell into deep thought, in the face of Meng Yi's sudden friendliness, Zhao Si did not refuse, but asked Meng Yi a question seriously.

"Can I ask a word I don't know?" Zhao Si was slightly embarrassed.

He is, after all, a modern man, and when he went to sea, he completely lost his memory.

In the days when the fleet was anchored in Fusang, Zhao Siyou was working hard to learn contemporary writing and language, but it was easy to learn to speak, but it was not so simple to learn to read.

Because everyone can speak, but not everyone can read.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the small seal of this era is really complicated and difficult to write, except for some common characters, Zhao Si does not correspond to the Chinese characters in his memory at all.

At present, Zhao Si doesn't know a lot of words, his reading ability is very poor, and it is a problem to finish reading a copy of "Zou Zi", Meng Yi is really overestimating himself.

Meng Yi paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "But! ”

Zhao Si had a smile on his face, as a modern person, there was no need to explain the importance of reading and literacy.

A few days later, Zhao Si took out the momentum of the head cantilever beam cone and stabbed the stock.

After all, there is a Mr. Bai Lai by his side, whether Meng Yi's cultural level is high or not, Zhao Si doesn't know, but he must have a higher cultural level than himself.

Zhao Si highlighted a more look, more asking, and reserved his own opinions.

While reading, asking, and literacy, it took a long time to read these books in a cursory way.

When I finished reading it, the frame had already come to Xianyang.

Meng Yi and Zhao Si and their entourage are also about to separate.

"Your Majesty thinks highly of you! Well done! Meng Yi patted Zhao Si on the shoulder.

After roughly understanding Zou Zi's thoughts and the way he perceives the world, Zhao Si probably has a certain understanding.

Zhao Si didn't listen to Zou Zi at all in his previous life, as a modern person in his last life, who would delve into this kind of thing?

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are familiar to everyone, that is, Laozi, Zhuangzi, Mozi, Confucius and others, Zou Zi, who was born in a yin and yang family, seems a little unknown to modern people.

After really reading Zou Zi's masterpiece, Zhao Si was able to roughly understand why Meng Yi gave him Zou Zi's book.

Because the first emperor attached great importance to Zou Zi's learning.

First of all, the five virtues proposed by Zou Zi always provided a theoretical basis for Qin Shi Huang's Zhou.

That is, Zou Yan said, "The five virtues are invincible, Yu Tu, Xia Mu, Yin Jin, and Zhou Huo." "Mu Ke Earth, Jin Ke Mu, Fire Ke Jin, Water Ke Fire, Earth Ke Water.

The Qin people are still black, and black belongs to water, which just corresponds to water virtue, and it is reasonable to stand on behalf of Zhou.

Not to mention the Great Kyushu Theory, Zhao Si can be sure that after the Great Unification, as long as he wants to continue to expand externally, he must use the Great Kyushu Theory as a theoretical basis.

Zou Zi, who lived in Qidi and grew up next to the sea, had already emerged at a very early age with yearning and speculation about the outside world.

And this guess is more accurate than Kyushu's theory. It is also more in line with the national conditions of Daqin.

If Great Qin wanted to expand, it could not promote the theory of Kyushu.

Otherwise, the skeptics will take the Kyushu theory as an argument and ask that the world is unified, and the rest will be barren land, which will bring a strong ideological obstacle to expansion.

In a sense, in fact, after dominating the world, Kyushu should be swept into the dust of the previous era.

After the reunification, no matter from any point of view, Kyushu theory is only left with archaeological value, objectively speaking, the arrogant and arrogant thinking of the Celestial Empire formed by Zhuxia in later generations has a certain relationship with Kyushu theory.

"Meng Yi!" Zhao Si held the scriptures annotated by Meng Yi in his hand, looked at the back of Meng Yi leaving, and showed a little gratitude.

Meng Yi's selfless help was not only for Zhao Si to learn a lot of knowledge.

There are also valuable mentions.

If you understand Zou Zi and the national conditions of Great Qin, you will know why the First Emperor attached so much importance to the return of Zhao Si and his party from going to sea.

"Shhh In that case, isn't it really possible for Great Qin to carry out colonial expansion? Zhao Si looked at the Zou Zi masterpiece in his hand and gasped, contributing to global warming.

Different from the national conditions of other eras, the basic national policy of Great Qin determined that it must constantly expand outward and constantly transfer pressure outward.

If the pressure is too great, or if it persists and cannot be transferred outward, then the country will inevitably collapse.

Zhao Si felt that he had some clues, but he couldn't figure it out, after all, he didn't know much about the specific laws of this era, and he didn't understand the fundamental structure of the Qin Dynasty's cultivation and warfare system.

But he can vaguely feel that it is a good means to transfer pressure outward, which was often the case in the previous life of the American imperialists, although it was shameless, but it couldn't stand up to it.

As long as you can keep winning, no, you don't need to win all the time, as long as you have enough gains!

And this time, he brought a map of the world, more than 400 crew members with mature sailing experience, and the first ocean-going chart of this era.

To put it mildly, Zhao Si completed the most difficult breakthrough, from zero to one.

And it just so happens that Daqin has the top shipbuilding technology of this era, and is the only country capable of sailing and striking across the sea.

The two combined, and Zhao Si's eyes blinked.

He was really not sure if Great Qin would embark on the road of external plunder because of this, after all, the national conditions were different, and the internal pressure of Great Qin was too great, and the pressure had to be transferred.

In the north and south directions, the harvest is obviously insufficient, and Daqin needs a direction with a greater harvest.

But can the sea in this era really bring enough harvest to Daqin? Zhao Si didn't know, after all, in this era, except for some countries such as Daqin and Liao Liao, it is not an exaggeration to say that the rest of the places are primitive people.

Thinking of the origins of more than 400 sailors in a separate book, and thinking of Meng Yi's gift of books, Zhao Si can be sure that perhaps the first time he gave the world map, the First Emperor already had the idea of conquering and expanding.

It is impossible for the first emperor to believe in the Kyushu theory, as the emperor of the Qin State, he must believe in the Great Kyushu theory!
