In fact, Zhang Feng really didn't expect that Yu Shinan's people would have such a big resistance to this matter.
However, when Yu Shinan just spoke, he also thought of something, which was the struggle between the civil officials and the military generals during the Zhenguan period. He instantly understood some things. Many people said that Li Shimin, the emperor of the dynasty, valued military power and despised civil officials. Some people even scolded Li Shimin for being careless and only knowing the political power on horseback. However, they didn't know that if it was a strong military power, it would be a disaster.
It would really lead a country to destruction, and it wouldn't last long.
If it was like the Song Dynasty, which valued civil officials and despised military power, it would also make a country fall into ruin.
It would be like a broken piece of cotton wool. It looked good on the outside but was broken on the inside.
What was the use of this?
In his academy, Yu Shinan and the others seemed to only think of one aspect, but they seemed to have automatically filtered out military science and medicine from the root.
Without these people and these soldiers guarding the border, not to mention other things, just this change in the water might be the end of the Tang Dynasty.
Besides, in the current situation, at this time, they only knew how to recite poems and make couplets all day long and talk about the past and present. However, they didn't think about the dispute at the border. Could it be that it could be solved by just talking? If that was the case, then the world would be really peaceful.
This could only be thought about.
To forge iron, one needed to be strong. Moreover, it was a country. If it did not have a strong military that was intimidated, how could there be peace in the world? How could there be scholars who could recite poems and talk about things of the past and the present under the bright mirror?
Zhang Feng understood very well that it was very difficult to change the pedantic mentality of everyone at this time.
However, he never thought that it would be so difficult. At first, he thought that it would be Yu Shinan and the others.
Based on what he had shown, the promotion of these four people should mean that they had already accepted this kind of person. However, at this time, because of the appearance of a forging workshop, the four people were so angry. Obviously, they thought too much. These people were still pedantic in their bones.
"Respected teachers, please allow this student to tell you in detail why this student is like this."
They didn't speak, but just smoked one cigarette after another. It seemed that the cigarettes made by Zheng Feng at this time had infinite magic.
Zhang Feng couldn't help but curse.
Damn it, didn't you say that the things made by Lao Tzu were not good? Then why are you able to accept these cigarettes? But Lao Tzu just made a forging workshop and you are like this?
Seeing this, Zhang Feng said, "Respected teachers, what do you think of the taste of this cigarette made by me? How is the effect? "
They didn't know what Zhang Feng wanted to say, but they still nodded and answered Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng saw this and said, "In fact, respected teachers, you don't know that the raw materials of the cigarettes in your hands are from the merchants of Hui country. For example, there is a kind of thing that can grow crazily in the dry land without rain all year round. This kind of thing is called potato, and there is another kind of thing called sweet potato. If these two things are introduced to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will never have a shortage of food. And these things are far away from here."
Yu Shinan and the others heard this and couldn't help but twitch their eyelids. They looked at the cigarettes in their hands and couldn't help but smoke.
Sun Simiao seemed to be more interested in this and couldn't help but ask, "Boy, are you serious? If there is really that kind of food, then isn't this country very rich?"
Zhang Feng nodded. Then, he picked up the rag on the table and wiped off all the things written by the person who handed it to Li Chengqian on the blackboard. Then, he picked up a piece of chalk and drew a big circle on it.
"This is where we live. We are in this circle, and the location of our hall is probably in this place."
While talking, Zhang Feng drew a circle in a place and wrote the words "Tang Dynasty" in the circle. Then, he said, "In fact, you should also know that to the east of the Tang Dynasty is the boundless sea. But you should know that at the end of the sea is a wild land. There are many things that we don't know about growing on this land. These things are actually prepared for some people in the wild as the most basic rations. Even a large part of them is wasted. Among them are the potatoes and sweet potatoes that this boy just mentioned. There are even some things that you have never heard of."
"For example, chili and corn."
"These things are very far away, but if we want to count on these things now, for example, if we want to go to Tiandi or Persia, it will take at least half a year.
It would take at least half a year to go back and forth, and there were many uncertainties in this process.
We want to explore the outside world, and the outside world wants to explore our Tang Dynasty. For example, the black-clothed Abbasid Caliphate that just appeared is very prosperous. As far as this boy knows, the national strength of this country is not inferior to the Tang Dynasty! "
