Daqin Engineering Corps

But this time Shen Bing was about to disappoint Xu Ying.

Looking at Xu Ying who was staring intently at the hydraulic loom and "tsk tsk" in amazement, Shen Bing said:

"Shen Bing knows that Mister is here to spread the method of hydraulic weaving to the world, but I'm afraid he will be disappointed this time."

Xu Ying asked:

"Why?"

Shen Bing replied:

"I don't know if sir came here, did you see the situation of Yunzhong and Jiuyuan along the way?"

Xu Ying nodded slightly and replied:

"The general is talking about wasteland everywhere?"

Shen Bing sighed:

"Exactly."

"Unknown to Mr. Yunzhong and Jiuyuan, there are already 25 people in the two counties."

"However, the Northland was abandoned by Zhao Wangjia and turned into a wilderness."

"This year when Shen Bing led his troops to station, he happened to miss the farming season, so..."

Xu Ying nodded again and again. More than [-] people have no food at all, and the food in Beidi is still cooked once a year, which means that it will take at least two years to have food. Survival is a big problem.

Shen Bing went on to explain:

"That's why Shen Bing can only weave cloth with water for business, and then go to various places to exchange cloth for food to support the soldiers and civilians in the north."

"Mr. Ruo promotes this hydraulic loom to various places..."

Xu Ying understood after saying "oh", then cupped his hands and said to Shen Bing:

"What the general said is true, the old man almost made a big mistake."

"If the hydraulic loom is extended to all parties, it will definitely affect the sales of cloth in the Northland."

"If the North Land cannot exchange cloth for enough food, many people will be unable to feed themselves or even starve to death in the coming year..."

Shen Bing cupped his hands and replied:

"As sir said."

"This matter is related to the life and death of Beidi, so I forgive Shen Bing..."

Xu Ying interrupted Shen Bing with an "eh" and said:

"It should be, it should be."

"It's the old man who was confused for a while, not to mention that this thing was originally made by the general, so it is reasonable not to allow others to copy it."

In fact, this is just Shen Bing's routine.

With Shen Bing's mastery of the technology and the hydraulic loom, there is still huge room for improvement, so why worry about Xu Ying's copying and pasting?

As for the food issue, isn't that still supported by Ying Zheng?

Of course, Ying Zheng couldn't be so confused that he only moved people to the north without giving him food. Isn't that equivalent to sending people here to starve to death?

But of course, these things cannot be said to Xu Ying.

Then Shen Bing sighed again and began to complain:

"But even so, the North Land is barely adequate for food and clothing."

"Besides, Shen Bing is not familiar with the climate, water and soil, etc. when he first came to the Northland. If there is any mistake in farming next year..."

As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed, in short, it was hard to say.

Xu Ying felt that it was very reasonable, he nodded and said:

"If there is not enough food, it will be very difficult to survive the winter."

"If the harvest is not enough after the field is set up next year...it will make the situation worse."

Shen Bing quickly answered and said:

"That's exactly what you said, sir."

"It's hard to guarantee that the cloth woven by this hydraulic loom can be sold at a good price every year."

"It's like walking on thin ice with Shen Bing governing the Northland."

"At the same time, Shen Bing had to deal with the Huns' inability to specialize in farming..."

"If something goes wrong during the period, Shen Bing's personal honor and disgrace are minor matters, and if a large number of people starve to death... Shen Bing will be ashamed!"

After Shen Bing flickered down like this, Xu Ying didn't hesitate at all, so he volunteered and said:

"If the general doesn't dislike it, I don't know what the general will do if I volunteer to take care of the farming in the Northland."

Shen Bing was overjoyed in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be embarrassed:

"Mr. Ke is in charge of millet internal history, and he has to take care of the world's agricultural affairs..."

Xu Ying replied indifferently:

"The Northland is also one of the world. The Northland is the most difficult, and the old man can take care of it here."

"but……"

As Xu Ying said, he glanced at the hydraulic loom, and then continued:

"If one day the food crisis in the North is solved, the general will allow the old man to spread the hydraulic loom to the world!"

Shen Bing replied without thinking:

"A word is settled!"

At the same time, he secretly thought.

Not to mention that it will take at least two years to solve the food crisis, even if Xu Ying leaves after duplicating the hydraulic loom two years later... Shen Bing still has a way to call him back.

Wouldn't it be enough to just upgrade the hydraulic loom?

Then there will be another exchange at that time, and then another exchange... You promise to sell it to Beidi!

Xu Ying certainly didn't expect Shen Bing to have such a plan.

What he thought was:

Helping the people in the north to solve the food worries is what the farmers should do. Even if Shen Bing doesn't make demands or complain, he should operate here according to the teachings of the farmers.

And Shen Bing is so stupid that he is willing to exchange the hydraulic loom... Why not do it?

So Xu Ying didn't hesitate, and immediately asked Zhang Ge to summon idle farm children from all over the world to run the business in the Northland.

Xu Ying even made a field trip and thought that irrigation and fertilization should be done before the farm next year.

These promises should be professional, so Shen Bing handed them over to him with confidence.

On the other hand, Shen Bing also confessed to Hui:

"Choose a group of clever and literate people, and study with the farmers in the past two years!"

"If you learn it, there will be a lot of rewards!"

He responded and went to make arrangements.

This was a worry for Shen Bing.

However, there are still so many affairs in the two counties that Shen Bing is overwhelmed, and he is busy all day long... Shen Bing decided to separate out various problems like dealing with agriculture.

Otherwise, he has to decide everything by himself, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't solve it.

In terms of industry, maybe Shen Bing can only do it himself.

Canghui only has carpentry technology, and has no concept of industrialization at all, let alone how to develop or in what direction to develop.

The same goes for the military...

After industrialization, it will be the army of the industrial period, which even a military genius like Wang Ben can't understand.

Only these two things are enough for Shen Bing to drink a pot.

If you still have to consider the issues of road construction, construction, commerce and even the development of foreign trade along the Silk Road, I am afraid that Shen Bing will soon end up "died before leaving the army".

At this time, Shen Bing thought of a person: Yun Tian.

The good businessman in Daliang.

Isn't this guy Bai Gui's disciple?

Didn't you say that you use the art of governing the country to do business?

Does that mean he will also govern the Northland?

No matter how bad it is, as a businessman, he will have no problem completing the business!

So Shen Bing didn't think too much, and immediately ordered to Ren:

"Repair a book and send it to Daliang Yuntian."

"Just say that you have business to discuss with him, and let him come to the Northland!"

Chapter 342

Yun Tian actually knew the purpose of Shen Bing looking for him.

In fact, Yun Tian has been waiting.

For Bai Gui's disciples, business has never been his goal, and politics is the right way.

The reason why Bai Gui abandoned politics and started business back then was because there was no future in the Seven Kingdoms, so he started business in despair.

In fact, Bai Gui also intended to enter politics again afterwards, so he traveled around the world.

But after turning around, he still couldn't find a promising country that he could assist, so he finally gave up.

Yun Tian is Bai Gui's disciple, so how can he not know Bai Gui's wish.

So although he said he was engaged in business, he actually treated his business as a country.

When Shen Bing was stationed in Daliang, he realized that Shen Bing was extraordinary, so he took the initiative to meet and cooperate with Shen Bing.

The future development of the war was as expected by Yun Tian, ​​and Shen Bing won one victory after another. At this time, he had dominated the Northland.

As early as when Shen Bing was named "Northland General", Yun Tian had already had the idea of ​​going to the Northland with Shen Bing.

But when I think about Daliang and Shen Bing's industries... one is papermaking, and the other is rattan armor.

If it is not arranged well here, I am afraid it will affect the Northern Army.

So during this period of time, he tried his best to hand over these matters to the housekeeper, and on the other hand, he was waiting for an opportunity.

Waiting and waiting, finally got a letter from Shen Bing saying that there is a business negotiation.

Yun Tian couldn't help being overjoyed, and immediately handed over the Daliang affairs to the housekeeper, while he packed up the things and asked the whole family to move to the Northland.

Seeing this, Li's wife was a little unhappy. She read the letter and persuaded:

"General Shen just asked you to negotiate business. How do you move the whole family to the Northland?"

"If General Shen doesn't mean to use you, wouldn't it be a joke for you to do so?!"

In fact, Mrs. Li really didn't want to move to the Northland.

As we all know, the northern land is a bitterly cold place outside the Great Wall, and it is even more freezing in winter. How can these ladies who live in the south endure this hardship? !

How could Yun Tian not understand what Li Shi was thinking, so he just "hummed" and said:

"Women's view!"

"If you don't want to follow me to the Northland, you can stay in Daliang."

"Delicious food and comfortable living can't do without you."

After Yun Tian said that, how dare Li Shi dare to refute, if he said a few more words, it would be impossible to please Yun Tian to stay alone in Daliang.

So there were hundreds of people in Yuntian, young and old, and dozens of carriages loaded with luggage, rushing to the north like a group of business travelers.
