Then the scene of bowing down.

As a result, Qin Tian just glanced at it and gave a very general evaluation, which made the confident Li Shimin a little unbearable.

"Brother Qin won't look at it anymore?" Li Shimin's face stiffened: "Maybe there is anything else you haven't read?" ”

Qin Tian smiled and invited Li Shimin to sit down.

"Then let's talk about the problem last time."

Mu Chun served tea sets to the two and began to perform tea art.

Qin Tian is not proficient in tea art, and Mu Chun's tea art is completely figured out by herself.

The tea leaves are brewed with hot water, and in a moment, the house is filled with the fragrance of tea.

As early as the Western Han Dynasty, Wei Qinghuo Qubing and others had seen Qin Tian's tea brewing techniques.

At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty tried to follow Qin Tian's example, brewing only tea without adding anything else.

However, due to the fact that there is no way to fry the tea leaves, the tea brewed directly is bitter and astringent, and it cannot be eaten at all.

Therefore, until now, the way the public drinks tea is still very different from Qin Tian.

They often added various items such as dates, which Qin Tian preferred to call tea soup, or porridge.

"This ......" Li Shimin was shocked: "Is this fragrant brewing method?" ”

“？”

Qin Tian glanced at Li Shimin a little strangely, he really didn't know what the mainstream tea drinking method was, so he naturally didn't know what Li Shimin was shocked by.

Li Shimin suppressed his excitement, took the tea brought by Mu Chun, and took a sip gently.

"This taste ......"

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up.

"That's right! That's what it tastes like! ”

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of surprise and joy.

A long time ago, he saw in the history books that there were relevant records in both the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period.

“…… It doesn't smell like a mortal thing, brewed with water, the aroma is overflowing, and the fragrance is pleasant.

…… Try it, bitter and tasteless......"

It probably means that Wei Qing in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period have seen a strange way to make tea.

This method is very different from the mainstream method, and it is extremely fragrant, and some people have tried to imitate it, but the results have failed, and it is extremely bitter!

Li Shimin didn't expect that he would be lucky enough to see this way of drinking tea!

After discovering that the tea brewed by Qin Tian was no different from what was recorded in the history books, Li Shimin trusted Qin Tian even more!

Those who can know this method of making tea, aren't they masters?

In Li Shimin's heart, Qin Tian has obviously become a hermit family who has been living in seclusion in the mountains since the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

After listening to Li Shimin's explanation, Qin Tian was also a little surprised.

"Is that so?" Qin Tian nodded slightly: "Actually, it's not a special craft, it's just that it hasn't been passed on." ”

"The process is very simple, you just need to fry the tea properly."

Qin Tian shook his head: "When Brother Li leaves, I will give you a few catties of tea, and Brother Li can also have people copy it when I go back." ”

"It's just that I can't tell you the specific process, you need to try it yourself."

It's not that Qin Tian doesn't want to tell him, but the way he roasts tea is completely different from that of normal people.

He used spiritual power to fry tea, even if he told Li Shimin, he wouldn't be able to learn it!

Moreover, Qin Tian didn't mind spreading the method of roasting tea, it was better to say that he was more willing to do so.

After the method of roasting tea spreads, more and better tea leaves can emerge among the people, so that if Qin Tian is greedy, he doesn't have to make tea by himself every time.

Moreover, the tea fried by the people does not necessarily have a bad taste, but has a different flavor!

Such generosity stunned Li Shimin.

"Why?" Li Shimin was a little puzzled.

Even people like him, who are not familiar with business, know how much wealth value this method can create once it spreads.

But Qin Tian is now willing to talk about it directly, and Li Shimin is somewhat incomprehensible.

"What, why." Qin Tian smiled: "It's just a few pieces of tea, and it's not a valuable thing." ”

"It's just that my method is too special and not popular, otherwise it wouldn't hurt to teach you the method of frying directly."

Li Shimin opened his mouth.

Look, what is a master? What does it mean to treat money like dung?

This is called a master! It's called treating money like dung!

Li Shimin nodded slightly: "Although I don't know what the specific process is, I just need to know that it is fried, and if I try a few more times, I can also try it out." ”

"In this way, thank you Brother Qin for the reward."

"There is no such thing as a reward."

After chatting a few words, the two finally got to the point.

It is exactly what I said a few days ago, why, when it is cold, the north and the south will attack and defend the situation.

Qin Tian looked at Li Shimin's strategy, and there were indeed a lot of merits in it.

After all, Li Shimin is also an emperor, not an ordinary person.

But the limitations of the times and the limitations of knowledge still made him unable to see many things that were originally obvious.

In fact, the reason for the change of offensive and defensive situation between the north and the south is the same as the reason for the difference in difficulty between the southern and northern expeditions.

It's always easier to destroy than to create, and it's always easier to invade than to defend.

For herders, a disaster year also means that cattle and sheep starve to death and freeze to death, which is not just as simple as not having food.

This means that if they do not divert their contradictions and do not invade foreign countries to obtain resources, most of them will starve to death.

The stability of farming is relatively high, as long as it is not too outrageous natural and man-made disasters, the people are nothing more than suffering, and life is always passable.

Therefore, fundamentally speaking, the demands and desire to fight between the two are not at the same level at all.

Therefore, when it is cold, the desire of nomads to invade the south will be so strong.

Because if they don't invade, they will starve to death and freeze to death, but the people of the south don't have to bear this.

At the beginning of the war, the barbarians can defeat countless times, and you will not be able to chase them all anyway.

But if the southerners lose ground once, the disaster brought to the people will be devastating.

What's more, the southerners did not have a good time during the disaster year, and in order to maintain the integrity of the border defense, it was necessary to spend a lot of manpower, material resources and resources.

These things are already lacking in disaster years, and under the vicious circle, the south is naturally very easy to lose.

But if it is the other way around, with sufficient logistics and a mild climate, the barbarians are nothing in the face of the huge number of southerners.

Food logistics is only one aspect.

On the other hand, when the climate is cold, various natural disasters will also magnify the evil in human nature.

Coupled with the governance of the dynasty, the corruption of the officials and other factors, it is good to say that these problems will be covered up infinitely.

But in the event of a poor harvest, these problems are magnified indefinitely, and a vicious cycle begins that eventually leads to the complete collapse of the state system.

Throughout history, no matter which conquest of the south against the north, was not it all based on successive bumper harvests and the rest of the people?

If there is no good harvest with good weather and mild climate, it is useless for you to recuperate for many years.

Because the strength of the country cannot keep up with the pace of your conquest.

However, Hou Han is an exception, and it cannot be discussed in a normal situation at all.

A large part of the reason for this actually comes from Qin Tian.

During the Battle of Chibi, Qin Tian spread high-yield crop seeds, which led to an unprecedented increase in the strength of Shu Han.

Under the conquest of manpower, even the weather had to make way for Shu Han.

Especially Zhuge Liang, a person who can be called a person through the ages, actually pulled Shu Han back from the brink of destruction.

Liu Chan is not wise, and can even be said to be mediocre.

As the uncrowned emperor of Shu Han, he successfully avoided Shu Han from being tossed by Liu Chan, and selected an excellent and reasonable heir for Shu Han.

It's just that after Zhuge Liang died, Shu Han still couldn't resist the tide of history, and finally declined.

But as long as Shu Han didn't die by himself, it would be absolutely impossible for him to die at the hands of foreigners.

The reason is also very simple, even if the weather is wrong, but there are so many high-yield crops, the basic combat effectiveness of Shu Han is still guaranteed.

Under the support of such powerful logistics, the barbarians can loot on a small scale, but a large-scale invasion is absolutely impossible to complete.

But the bad thing is that there is another Liu Chen in the middle, which directly led to the almost fall of half of China.

Although he was later pulled back in time by Qin Tian, Shu Han, who was greatly injured, was unable to recover to his previous appearance in the end.

Later, after a series of turbulent changes, the Sui Dynasty was established, and the Shu Han Dynasty finally perished, and the Han Dynasty, which lasted for nearly 700 years, finally disappeared completely under the ups and downs.

But after that, the basis of the Sui dynasty's rule was not stable.

Because the Han Dynasty ruled this land for too long.

Even after countless twists and turns in the middle, and even countries such as Cao, Wei, Sun and Wu appeared, they all ended up in the Han Dynasty.

As for whether Shu Han is Han or not...... That is the opinion of the benevolent and the wise of the wise.

Anyway, most people think that Shu Han is also orthodox in the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, when Li Yuan and Li Shimin raised the banner against the Sui, they were also under the banner of restoring the Han dynasty.

History is a reincarnation.

As for the real fall of the Sui Dynasty, the slogan of restoring the Han dynasty was not mentioned.

Just shout the slogan, you can't really believe it, right?

Having said that, this is also the reason why Li Shimin is so thirsty for talent that he is almost a little stunned.

The Han Dynasty ruled for so long, so long that it was so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people that it even reached the point that if the ruler was not surnamed Liu, then everyone was reluctant to recognize orthodoxy.

The Tang Dynasty seems to be prosperous now, but no one knows what the future of the Tang Kingdom will be?

Just like that Sui, isn't it also a fire to cook oil, flowers like brocade, and then the second died?

To put it bluntly, in the bottom line, no one thinks that these regimes can last.

Many people are even waiting, waiting for a rebel surnamed Liu to come out and restore the orthodoxy of the Han family again!

So Li Shimin was very anxious, so anxious that he was already a little stunned.

Of course he knew what those people thought, but Li Shimin knew that the times had changed, and for nearly a hundred years, the reign of the surname Liu should come to an end.

But who knows if Tang Guo will be the next tyranny? Will he die like the Tyrannical Sui?

Therefore, Li Shimin is eager to recruit all talents in the world.

Not only because his means of ascending to the throne were not above board, but also because Li Shimin was afraid.

He was afraid that there would really be such a person who stood up, just like Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, and really recovered the Han Dynasty!

……

Between the conversations with Li Shimin, Qin Tian keenly noticed this.

He simply doesn't know much about people's hearts, especially the emperor's mind.

Qin Tian is already good at perceiving people's hearts, and if you want to talk about the emperors you have seen in this world, I am afraid that from ancient times to the present, and even in the future, there will be no other person who can compare with him!

After perceiving a trace of eagerness hidden under Li Shimin's calm appearance, Qin Tian began to probe and finally understood the source of Li Shimin's impatience.

For the Han Dynasty, of course, Qin Tian also had a feeling.

Not to mention the friends he knew during the Three Han Dynasty, just saying that Qin Tian interfered with and promoted the emergence of a new dynasty with his own power is enough to make Qin Tian have a different kind of affection for the Han Dynasty.

But the Han Dynasty ended after all.

Nearly 100 years have passed since the existence of Shu Han in name only, and more than 50 years have passed since the substantive and nominal demise of Shu Han.

This long time can wear away a lot of things.

Unlike many families, Qin Tian never thought that there would be an eternal dynasty.

On the contrary, if the ruling class of a country does not change for thousands of years, Qin Tian will get tired of it.

Because such a country and such a dynasty are like a pool of stagnant water, and there is no future!

The Western Han Dynasty, the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Shu Han Dynasty all have their own unique and distinctive characteristics.

The Western Han Dynasty was still martial and made meritorious contributions, so throughout the Western Han Dynasty, the country was full of an atmosphere of martial arts.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, because of the rise of Buddhism and Taoism, the theological atmosphere of the whole country was strong, which also led to the increasingly fierce power struggle in the later period.

And Shu Han is different from both of them.

Due to the sudden abundance of food, the life of Shu Han was really too good, so not many years after Zhuge Liang died, the whole Shu Han was blowing a wind of extravagance.

Therefore, throughout the middle and late Shu Han periods, the social atmosphere was actually not very good.

The population explosion did not keep up with the speed of agricultural development, and handicrafts began to emerge in society.

However, prosperous commerce brought about a corrupt social atmosphere, which also led to Liu Chen, a strange runaway emperor.

But after being beaten once, the post-Shu Han period was much better.

It's just that after being invaded by foreign enemies, Shu Han, who even lost the national capital, has lost many things and can never be recovered.

Population, arable land, these are not completely recovered overnight.

Moreover, the climate of the entire Shu Han period was actually unstable, and various natural disasters occurred frequently, which also brought great trouble to the recovery of productivity in the post-Shu Han period.

Add to that the limited capacity of those in power......
