"Hehe." Li Mu laughed.
"Prime Minister, this is it." Li Zuoche looked at Li Mu puzzled.
"I'm laughing at you, you can be a councilor now." Li Mu said with a smile.
"This. I think, people have to choose me." Li Zuoche said.
"Hehe." Li Mu laughed.
"However, what Zhang Ping said made sense, especially the sentence about controlling war." Li Mu said.
"Wars in the past were uncontrollable and tended to escalate, but the Qin people can effectively control the progress of the war, especially in some places, they can fight if they want to fight, and withdraw immediately if they don't want to fight. Qin Jun's style of attack was completely different before, and Qin Jun's attack had a purpose." Li Mu said.
"That is to say, the people of Qin fought wars entirely for the benefit of merchants. If this continues, their continuity will be very strong, and they will not harm the country because of the protracted war. Qin had this before. Things, they need to recover for a long time to reach their previous level. And Qin's current national foundation cannot be harmed at all." Li Mu analyzed.
"It seems that we should take this piece of land." Li Mu said.In fact, Zhang Ping's words solved some of Li Mu's doubts. What is Qin's purpose, why would Qin people not give Zhao a colony for no reason, and why?And Zhang Ping's explanation is business.Combining the expansion of Qin State in any period before, he found that the expansion of Qin State has become very clear. This is the commercial demand, especially Qin State is currently stopped at the gate of the Western Regions. The Western Regions stopped advancing. Apart from many reasons of their own, an important reason was commercial factors. Railway transportation could not keep up. At the same time, their commercial development and cooperation also needed to continue.When Qin State focused on the Western Regions, Qin State had no time to take care of his side and rear, especially the mountainous Qiang people on the plateau flanking the Hexi Corridor.Instead of putting tens of thousands of troops on the line of defense, it is better to take the initiative to withdraw.Give it to Zhao Guoren, let Zhao Guoren establish a colony by himself.
And there is a natural limit to such a colony.The food production in the plateau area is very limited, which determines that the number of people cannot be too large, and they must rely heavily on Qin State railway transportation.
The second is that Zhao Guo has to deal with the attack of the Qiang people in the mountains and start trade, which requires Zhao Guo to develop flexibly.In fact, this colony belongs to Zhao State, but it actually implements a federal system, or a loose confederation.In this case, Zhao Guo actually has very weak control over the colonies.But this is good for the development of the colony.Because the colony exhibition has no more restrictions.
That's the last point.To deal with the problems of the Qiang people in the mountains.The purpose of controlling the war and fighting the Qiang people in the mountains is trade, and trade cannot avoid conflicts, so it needs the protection of soldiers, but the protection is very limited, and this degree is to protect trade.In this way, the development of the colony entered a virtuous circle.
"Another point is the attitude of the people of Qin?" Li Mu said.
"You know, the established colony is closely related to Qin. If Zhao and Qin turn against each other, what will happen?" Finally, Li Mu was worried.
"This." Li Zuoche thought for a while and said.
"I don't think people from Qin would do this," Li Zuoche said.
"Why?" Li Mu asked.
"Because Qin has an open prime minister." Li Zuoche said.
"The reason why Qin State was able to occupy the Western Regions and stabilize the Western Regions, with such a large area in the north, is largely due to the Prime Minister Qin State." Li Zuoche said.
"En." Li Mu nodded.
"That's right." Li Mu said.
"In this case, we want this colony." Li Mu said.
"However, we can't wait for us to speak, but the House of Lords has to come to this conclusion. Only in this way can we establish our own colony." Li Mu said.
"Well. Let's wait." Li Zuoche said.
Xianyang, Qin State.
"Our Han army will launch an attack on the Chu army stationed in Langya. We will attack on land and sea." Zhang Liang introduced to Meng Yi.Meng Tian beside him nodded.He is very clear about South Korea's strategic purpose, and he was an officer who accurately analyzed South Korea's movements before.
"What can we Qin do?" Meng Yi asked at this time.
"We hope Qin can win more support," Zhang Liang said.
"We need the support of all countries. Without this, it will be difficult for us to control the war, and the war may expand further. This is the last thing we want to see." Zhang Liang said to Meng Yi.

"For South Korea's request, we think it is very necessary. The current trade tariffs of Chu State are unusually high. Their taxes on tea, sugar, and silk are much higher than any other region, and tea, sugar, and such commodities , It is very difficult for us to find the same products for a while, if this continues, we will have to pay a lot of taxes to the people of Chu, which is very unfair to us." Wen said Meng Yi.
The tax collected by Chu State is quite large, and the customers who pay the bill are countries such as Qin State, Zhao State, and South Korea. The increase in tea tax has made some people in South Korea unable to drink tea.Coupled with unreasonable taxes.This has led to Qin, Zhao, and South Korea's products in a disadvantageous position in the trade with Chu, because the profits you earn are largely handed over to the people of Chu, which is very unfair.To be fair.I think we can unite Zhao Guo and other countries to jointly condemn, and if necessary, we can form a coalition. " Meng Yi said.
"We just need to control the rules of the game." Zhang Liang said.Zhang Liang knew that once the coalition forces were formed, the initiative to control the war would be handed over to the Qin people. The Qin people could fight a long war, but South Korea couldn't. South Korea couldn't last such a long time.
"Yes. Yes, we can mediate the war. After all, we don't want the war to continue and then escalate today. These are all things we don't want to see. If the war continues, I think the people of Qin will not be able to drink tea. " Meng Yi said with a smile.
"Damn it. We Qin people like to drink tea." Meng Yi said with a smile.
"Hehe." Zhang Liang also laughed.
Qin Xianyang University, in the lounge next to the Electrical Research Office.
"Are you really going to do this?" a tall female college student asked.
"It's really necessary to do this. I know that you have a lot of credit for the results of the research. Don't worry, I will share the patent fees with you." A man on the stool said painfully as he poked his head out.
"Zhang Lang" is going back. You have the nationality of Qin State. In Qin State, you can study a lot of things. The environment here is more suitable for you. If you go back, you will have nothing. What kind of country is South Korea? Don't you know?" the female college student tried hard to persuade.
"No, this is my father's wish. I must complete it. Although I have the nationality of Qin, I am still Korean." Zhang Lang said.
"My father is, and so am I." Zhang Lang said.
"Bai Lan, you may not understand. You are from Qin, so you don't know what Koreans think." Zhang Lang said.
"Qin is a powerful country. Such a powerful country naturally has a lot of pride, but we in South Korea do not have such capabilities. Such a status. You may not understand this situation." Zhang Lang said.
"Moreover, the subject we are studying is not of much use to Qin. I know that the future must be an era of electricity. This era has already arrived. For your future, you should stay here." Zhang Lang said .
"That's right. South Korea has a sea, and it's developing toward the sea. That's why you're going all out to conquer submarine cables?" Bai Lan asked.
"Not all." Zhang Lang replied.It turned out that Zhang Lang and Bai Lan were both students of Xianyang University in Qin State.And it's all one class.Electrical department.This is currently the most promising department in Qin State, and many people are eager to enter this department.
"Submarine cables, I think the ocean needs more. At present, our cables are bare or partially wrapped in oil paper. Such cables are difficult to last on the seabed, and the speed of rebroadcasting will also be greatly affected. I I think this is a very promising prospect in the future. And at present, all the cables are only on the ground, but not on the ocean. The communication signals of the cables are not very good. In this case.” Zhang Lang said.
"So, this problem, I think, I have to solve it, and you have a lot of credit for it." Zhang Lang said.
"Yeah. Okay. You can do whatever you want. If you want to go, I can't stop you enough. You can go." Bai Lan said.
"This." Zhang Lang looked at Bai Lan in embarrassment.
"In the state of Qin, you can get more funds to develop these things. There are many bankers who can invest and loan. When you go back to South Korea, do you have these in South Korea?" Bai Lan asked.
"No." Zhang Lang replied.
"However, South Korea needs these things. It needs such an opportunity. This is an opportunity for development." Zhang Lang said.
"Okay. Let's go." Bai Lan cried and left.Zhang Lang was helpless.
The telegraph needs cables, and the current cable technology can only be laid on the ground, and some cables are directly exposed to save costs. In this case, the communication quality of the cables is very poor, and the worst thing is that the cables cannot be laid Going to the ocean, if you need to assume, you must assume a cable pole on the ocean.But such a cable pole is impossible to complete.
This is also the most difficult part of South Korea at present. South Korea has a large number of overseas islands. The communication of these islands is very untimely, and it is very inconvenient to convey orders.Because there are no cables at sea, although there is radio technology, radio technology is not mature, it just appears.It is impossible for South Korea to master such technology, and there is only one way to strengthen ties.That is laying submarine cables.But Qin State did not have anyone who studied submarine cables, because Qin State needed it. In this case, Zhang Lang, who is a Korean, took the initiative to undertake this project.It was under such circumstances that the submarine cable was conquered.
Even if there is such a patent, it cannot be used in Qin State, because the cable does not need to be laid into the ocean, but South Korea needs such a thing.Zhang Lang, who is a Korean, decided to return to China with such technology.Because South Korea needs such technology.
"Go back, Korea needs me." Zhang Lang decided.Then Zhang Lang went back to South Korea at the fastest speed.
