The short videos I watched are from ancient times, and the ancients broke the defense

Sky curtain:.

[So economical, practical and large-volume silk. ]

[At this time, it is the most trustworthy currency. ]

[In the West. ]

[Silk was very popular in the Roman period. ]

[600 years before the Tang Dynasty. ]

[Caesar wore exquisite silk clothes to watch a play on the street. ]

[Making wearing silk a symbol of nobility. ]

[The legend of silk also spread throughout Eurasia. ]

[It’s just that the trade routes were blocked before. ]

[As a result, silk is very rare in the Western Regions. ]

[In view of this situation. ]

[The court used light and easy to transport silk. ]

[And the silk with extremely high value. ]

[To pay the salaries of tens of thousands of soldiers. 】

【The soldiers sold silk to merchants from the west who came to trade. 】

【Earn a high profit. 】

【Then buy daily necessities on the trade route. 】

【In this way. 】

【The supply problem in the Western Regions was solved. 】

【This also led to large-scale silk trade. 】

【It appeared on the trade route in the Western Regions. 】

【The Silk Road was therefore called the Silk Road by later generations. 】

……

Daqin plane.

“Silk?”

The emperor of the Qin Empire.

Although Ying Zheng also knew about silk.

But this thing was not something he could sell just because he wanted to.

The silk manufacturing industry and sericulture industry basically only served the emperor.

Naturally, he also had silk fabrics on him.

However, if you want to turn it into a commodity.

Whether it is technical.

Or the actual production capacity.

It is far from meeting the demand from abroad.

Not to mention the eager desire of the Western Regions.

Just within the Qin Empire.

There are very few people who can use silk.

Therefore, if you want to replicate the Silk Road of the Tang Dynasty.

For the Qin Empire, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

It is better to attack all the way.

But this is not impossible.

Ying Zheng thought about it.

If the official silk industry is established.

The output of silk can be increased.

But this is not easy to implement.

Now the Qin Empire has just been unified.

There are many places that need national strength.

If it is just to unify the Western Regions, then the official silk industry will be created.

Maybe there will be many objections.

He was thinking.

But Li Si spoke up.

"Your Majesty."

"I have a plan."

Li Si also smelled some business opportunities from the Western Regions described in the sky.

As a talented person, his thoughts at this time are similar to those of Ying Zheng, but somewhat different.

"You say."

Ying Zheng was biased.head and looked at him.

Li Si had been keeping quiet, but now he seemed to have an idea.

Ying Zheng was also a little curious.

Li Si pondered for a moment.

"I think we should take the lead and vigorously develop the silk industry."

"Give some people the benefit of raising silkworms."

"The problem of low silk production can be easily solved."

Ying Zheng only thought of the government to step in, but he didn't expect to rely on the power of the people.

This is indeed a point he didn't notice.

"If this works, you can try it."

Ying Zheng is also quite courageous.

Although it is not clear how much wealth the Silk Road in the Western Regions can bring to Daqin.

But everything should be tried first.

Compared to fighting, this kind of expenditure is much less.

Li Si accepted the order.

He didn't even have time to look at the sky again, and turned around and left in a hurry.

Ying Zheng looked back at the sky.

The prosperity of the Silk Road.

It was very popular in later generations.

Sky:

[It's not just the Western powers that have a lot of demand. ]

[The countries along the Silk Road. ]

[They also made a lot of money because of this. ]

[Persia relied on manipulating the prices between China and Europe in the past. ]

[Middlemen made huge profits by making a profit from the price difference. ]

[Of course, the problem of the army doing business. ]

[The An-Shi Rebellion and Caesar's coup have been discussed before. ]

[New prosperity. ]

[Promote the emergence of new systems. ]

[The court has established a visa application process for foreign merchants. ]

[People entering the customs will be asked where they are from. 】

[What is your identity? 】

[What is your destination? 】

[People leaving the country will check the value of the goods they carry. 】

[Pay customs duties. 】

[Under such orderly and secure management. 】

[Agricultural products from the Western Regions. 】

[Handicrafts and excellent horses enter the Central Plains smoothly. 】

…

The Tang Dynasty plane.

The more Li Er looked, the brighter his eyes became.

Isn't this the best way for the Silk Road he envisioned?

The Tang Dynasty needs excellent horses.

And the nobles and officials need handicrafts from the Western Regions.

These things can promote the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

Although the Western Regions are just a small place in the eyes of most people.

But as the ruler of the Tang Empire, Li Er has always known.

The Western Regions are not a small, barren land.

On the contrary, there are many treasures buried under the desert.

And judging from the map released by the sky curtain, the territory of the Western Regions is even more astonishingly large.

Of course, as the successor of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty.

Li Er had already seen the vastness of the Western Regions on the map.

That is why he had ambitions for the Western Regions.Bobo, always wanted to take over.

The broadcast of the sky curtain just fits his idea.

Although the territory of the Tang Empire is vast and more prosperous than the previous dynasty.

But to support such a huge empire, more wealth and troops are also needed.

As described in the sky curtain.

If it is possible to take the Western Regions into the bag during the reign of Li Er.

The Tang Dynasty will be more prosperous than before!

However, it is not easy to trade with the Western Regions.

Although the Tang Dynasty is thriving now.

But there are also many undercurrents.

Not all places obey Li Er's rule.

What's more, there are still some stubborn elements that need to be eliminated.

The Tang Dynasty cannot spare the time to deal with the Western Regions issue for the time being.

This is like a piece of delicious cake in front of you but you can't eat it.

Li Er really scratched his head.

It was at this time.

Fang Xuanling spoke.

"Your Majesty."

"The trade in the Western Regions can be handled by the people first."

This is the best method discussed by the ministers.

Since the government has no time to deal with it, let it be handed over to the people.

And it is not a complete let-off.

Just give some authority, these private merchants will fight for profit.

Li Er listened to Fang Xuanling's explanation.

Thinking for a moment.

"Just do as you say."

"But now we will try it in one place first. If the effect is good, we will expand it to the whole country."

The ministers nodded in agreement.

Everyone was excited.

A piece of fresh fertile land is in front of them.

As long as they are willing to make money.

Inexhaustible gold, silver and jewelry.

Will continue to flow in.

Of course, there are many small problems.

But in the face of interests, they are very happy to solve them.

Above the sky.

The benefits that the Silk Road will bring in the future.

Also gradually told through the narrator's mouth.

Countless people looked up at the sky.

The wealth in the sky is breathtaking.

Any official who has the opportunity to make a fortune from the Western Regions.

Each of them is shaken.

I wish I could let my subordinates go to the Western Regions to make a fortune now.
