The words have been made clear.

The offshore risk is relatively small, and it is also the main target of future development, and the hunting business, the mining business, and even the slave capture business require a large number of people.

There are very few people to explore the open sea, the danger is higher, and the time span is longer, so there are not too many people.

Those who are willing to go to the far sea are either disciples of the Yin and Yang family who have ideals and plan to supplement the Great Kyushu Theory of the Yin and Yang family, or they are crew members who want to fight for wealth and wealth.

And their task is not only to travel around the world, but also to undertake local political investigations, population distribution investigations, and even climate and terrain investigations, as well as to find and introduce overseas crops and organisms, which will take a longer time span and have greater potential risks.

"In that case, I think it's better to return on time." Zhao Si opened his mouth and said.

"Some of the tribal forces that we have negotiated with, if they have not yet been destroyed, can still remember us, and they can scatter their manpower overseas, after all, geographical investigations, population distribution surveys, and environmental surveys are not a day's work." Zhao Si opened his mouth and said.

"Oh? Whispering? There was some interest in his eyes.

"You see, the land of the eight overseas states is extremely vast, if you want to explore with only a few sea ships and hundreds of people, even if it is a rough exploration, I am afraid it will be discussed for decades, and there are too few people, and the slightest carelessness will be wiped out, I mean this, every time you go to a place, you will negotiate with the local forces, and put down a group of people to explore one place overseas, and at the same time, the ships can also carry out some supplies and supplements, and establish friendly exchanges with the local forces, and the ships do not dock too much, and return according to the route.

If you come across a wild place where it is difficult to negotiate without human gathering, try not to go too deep, make a rough estimate, and try to find a suitable place to dock along the coast to mark.

According to this method, about three years, the ship will be able to return smoothly, at this time, the first batch of new sea ships in Daqin will be almost built, then there is no need to be so difficult, although it is impossible to set foot in overseas on a large scale, but send twenty or thirty sea ships to explore overseas, and establish exchanges with overseas forces.

In this way, more men and ships will be brought in, and the original route will continue to be followed, taking over the work of the previous group of personnel, replacing personnel and retrieving intelligence data, and handing over seeds.

In this way, every three years is a round trip, the danger is less, the intelligence that can be collected is more immediate, and more contacts can be made overseas, although overseas cannot be set foot on a large scale for the time being, but like a small fleet, thirty or fifty ships, it is not difficult to do some luxury trade, and want to be self-sufficient.

And in this way, the information obtained by Daqin is also more timely, and it will not lag too far behind, and it can update the information every three years. Zhao Si said seriously.

Hearing this, Su Feng was thoughtful, and then said: "I have always heard from the crew that overseas is too barren......

Zhao Si smiled and shook his head: "Barren is indeed barren, and Daqin's large-scale involvement in overseas is indeed worth the loss now, but overseas is not a country without power and climate, if you can establish good exchanges, do some cross-sea trade, and ensure that a fleet of one or two thousand people is self-sufficient." If the prospects are good, there is even something to be earned. ”

"At that time, when Yingzhou and Xuanzhou (America) were passed, the local natives were hospitable, and there was some mutual trade, in order to thank each other for their hospitality, and to solve the urgent need, we had given each other weapons and gave back with gold and stones...... There is still a lot of money, and now Daqin's silk, silk, juan cloth, bronze, and lacquerware are all extravagant things overseas, and it is not difficult to exchange these things for gold and silver. Zhao Si said with a smile.

The current situation overseas is that the population distribution is not dense enough, the logistics pressure of sending troops across the sea is greater, and Daqin is fighting in other places, and there is no crushing technology tree, so colonization is definitely not to be thought about.

To be honest, you can only earn some gold and silver by playing trade, and large-scale commodity trade can't be played at all, but small-scale trade is not a big problem to feed a fleet and explore the world.

The Indians in the Americas are too fond of Daqin's weapons and equipment, and the Indians are a little embarrassed, there are too few copper and iron mines on the surface of this place, so that there is no way to point out any decent weapon technology trees, and there are no war horses in the country......

Great Qin's bronze artifacts were thrown over, and they were rare treasures that were proper divine weapons and sharp weapons for them.

No matter how barren overseas is, it can't stand the price of jadeite that glass balls can be sold.

Gold and silver are used all over the world, and it is better to buy out the productivity wasted by the nobles after returning to China, and vigorously advocate the burial of luxury goods such as gold and silver when the nobles die, and the more gold and silver objects are buried with the burial, the more gold and silver can be preserved.

It's really not possible to get a burial method, and strictly stipulate how much gold and silver can be buried to build a mausoleum.

There is no gold and silver to accompany the funeral, and the less the burial, the smaller the funeral specifications.

The common people could only dig a grave, it didn't have any effect, there must be a comparison between the nobles, who wants to die and can only live in a small house? In addition to affecting Yin Virtue a little, this trick can effectively offset the depreciation of gold and silver purchasing power caused by a large inflow of gold and silver.

After the completion of the popularization of basic agricultural development, with a sufficient population base and a sufficiently advanced industrial system, Daqin's shipbuilding and navigation industry have also grown by leaps and bounds, and at the same time, the basic development of the offshore has been roughly completed, and the civil navigation has begun to sprout, and at this time Daqin can begin to try to set foot in the open sea.

Zhao Si's estimate is...... Twenty years minimum!

With the promotion and popularization of the three new grains, the population of Daqin will definitely show a period of explosive growth.

The problem of doubling the population is not very big, do not underestimate the fertility of ancient people.

In the past twenty years, if Daqin can complete the transformation from bronze to steel, he can try to meddle and set foot overseas, and the operation of grabbing agricultural tools to repair the Great Wall can also be officially launched.

"That's ...... It's not impossible......" Fu Feng nodded, and then groaned.

"Just like this...... The first voyage will be even more dangerous and difficult. Zhao Si looked at Jing.

Zhao's proposal is pertinent, more sustainable, and more time-sensitive.

However, the pressure on the first crew was even greater, and the danger was even greater because they had to disperse some people everywhere they went, and they had to have close contact and negotiation with local forces.

Far overseas, the name of Great Qin can't bluff too many people, the emperor is far away, who cares what kind of Great Qin is not Qin?

Of course, the closer you are to the indigenous people, the more room you can maneuver.

As the contacts become closer and more frequent, as well as the existence of luxury trade, the other party will recognize the existence of Daqin even if it is far away from the ocean, and the information that Daqin can obtain will be more detailed.

It is not even impossible for them to come to a foreign country to participate in politics.

And the first ship, limited by the factor of insufficient ships, will inevitably not have many manpower, Daqin is a completely unfamiliar concept to overseas indigenous tribes and countries, to complete these things, Jing, as the captain, the task is even more arduous.

And as the accompanying crew became smaller and smaller, Jing, as a necessary returnee, became more and more dangerous.

But if it becomes sustainable...... Decade...... Even twenty years, when Daqin began to set foot in the far sea, it was the time of Jing Fenghou.

Of course, the premise is that Jing can survive unharmed.

Zhao Si knew that Jing wanted a wealth and wealth, so he simply gave Jing a road to heaven.

It's just that this road is very bumpy, and the difficulty is no less than crawling in the army.

Jing didn't speak, just picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

"After the court discussion, it won't take a few days to set off......" Jing looked at Zhao Si.

"Brother, if you really can't come back......

Zhao Si pointed to Jing's mouth and shook his head, you can't plant a flag at this time.

"Don't talk! Drink! After tomorrow's court meeting, we will not get drunk and will not return! ”

Toast to both......

Su Feng touched his beard and smiled on his face.

Although Jing is not as quick as Zhao Si, he is also a studious person, down-to-earth, but he has an upward heart, and he will not look back if he sees the direction, and he has a temper towards Su Feng.

This disciple, Su Feng is very satisfied!

A Drink to Win...... Jing was a little drunk......

The singer and dancer are still tirelessly stretching some graceful postures.

"Brother, I have to discuss ...... tomorrow" Jing raised his glass, but was forcibly put down by Zhao Si.

"Okay, don't get drunk tomorrow!"

Jing's state is not suitable for driving, so Zhao Si simply asked his subordinates to drive to deliver it.

"Sir......" Zhao Si stood at the door, suddenly hesitating.

Fu Feng looked at Zhao Si with his hands behind his back.

"Is the gentleman going too?" Zhao Si finally asked the question.

When he heard this, he laughed......

"My old bones, don't say that I am adrift at sea, even if I go to Langya, I am afraid that I will not be able to get up."

Zhao Si blinked, a little embarrassed, Su Feng has always been so enthusiastic, he also thought that Su Feng also planned to go overseas to dedicate himself to his ideals regardless of his body.

"I will wait for the disciples to come back in Xianyang." Su Feng looked at Jing Shensheng, who was sitting drunk in the frame, and spoke.

"The old man's body can't move for a few days, but I think I can wait a few years."

This time, there are not only his newly accepted little disciple Jing, but also many, many ...... He taught it himself, and most of the disciples who were included in the door wall also went.

The political competitiveness of the Yin-Yang family is weak, and it is a fact that it cannot be swept up by other schools.

But the far sea, the professional counterpart, is an undeveloped blue ocean.

There are hundreds of schools of thought, each with its own political demands, and it can only be realized if you have the right to do so.

"Just right...... I can also stay here and make up for you. He smiled and stepped onto the frame and waved his hand.

The subordinate urged the carriage, and the frame disappeared into the night.

……

Until the next day, Zhao Si was dressed neatly early.

It's a court dress, and it's a new court dress.

Today is the time to convene a court meeting and a court meeting to go to sea.

It is also the beginning of Daqin's second exploration at sea!

Zhao Si, who was tidying up and tidying up decently, also wanted to see what the hundreds of schools of thought and the court bigwigs of Daqin thought about overseas.
