In the original historical timeline, after the White Emperor entrusted himself to the throne, the Han Dynasty Prime Minister took over a country that was riddled with holes and had financial ruin.

In order to solve the financial problem, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty carried out creative reforms on the foundation of the ancient country - farming and weaving.

Not only did Dujiangyan create its own weir guarding officer, but it also had a brocade officer who specialized in managing the production of Sichuan brocade.

It can be said that "a hundred rooms are separated from each other, and the machines are in harmony."

As for the intrusion of a certain country rogue, although Ji Han no longer had so much financial pressure, the development of Shu Brocade has been greatly accelerated.

The first is because of the rapid development of the textile industry.

The boom in textile workshops started by Feng Tubie himself naturally greatly promoted the development of silk.

Secondly, it is naturally because of the multi-season sericulture technology developed by Feng Da Sima in order to develop the Yuexun Sunshui River Valley (which later became the Anning River Valley Plain, the second largest plain in Sichuan).

So just now when Feng Da Sima lamented that Shu Brocade was once again in great glory, Qin Bo had to forcefully control himself, so he rolled his eyes without being rude.

But according to the current situation, even if Da Sima said that shit smells good, Qin Bo would have to agree with him.

It goes without saying that in order to prove this point, you have to taste it yourself.

Feng Dashima, who holds the key to the school affairs office, has such a strong deterrent effect on the school affairs office.

It can be said that the school office that was almost at the end of its rope when it reached out to help it finally got rich rewards at this time.

Unless Lu Yi, Qin Bo and others are really loyal ministers of the great Wu who understand the righteousness and are brave and loyal, and they are the kind who would rather be broken into pieces than destroyed.

Will they be such loyal people?

If they were, why did Feng Da Sima want to help them in the first place?

Besides, Feng Da Sima only asked them to punish the political opponents they had long wanted to punish but could not get, and he did not ask them to betray Sun Quan. They should be happy, right?

Feng Dasima has always liked to deal with villains, and it's not without reason.

Because they know the current affairs.

For example, the Qin Bo in front of me is very aware of current affairs.

When Feng Dasima commented on Lu Boyan, his eyes lit up and a flattering smile appeared on his face:

"Yes, yes, what Da Sima said is true. He is ignorant and has shallow knowledge. Fortunately, Da Sima pointed out that he was wrong. He was wrong!"

Naturally, it was impossible for Feng Da Sima to take Qin Bo's compliment seriously.

Even if someone finds out in the future that he was the mastermind behind this matter, so what?

I, Feng Mingwen, and Lu Boyan are at odds with each other!

Betrayal of alliance?

What breach of alliance?

That was not what Lu Boyan said when he decided to attack Jingzhou secretly and wrote a letter to deliberately paralyze his uncle.

More recently, in the battle last year, Lu Xun and Sima Yi cooperated seamlessly. Feng Da Sima did not believe that it was a coincidence.

Seeing Qin Bo's appearance, Feng Dasima's eyes flashed and he asked calmly:

"So, are you agreeing?"

"After Bo returns home, he must clearly explain the pros and cons of this matter to His Majesty and Principal Lu."

"Then I'll take it as your consent."

Feng Da Sima then smiled:

"If this can be done, converting rice into mulberry and purchasing silk, even if Lord Wu doesn't agree -"

Fengda Sima protracted his voice, and when he saw Qin Bo listening attentively, he continued, "I can also let Xinghanhui make this deal with your school affairs office in private."

Fengda Sima nodded to Qin Bo, "We can even notify the school affairs office and designate you to preside over this transaction."

"If the official doesn't allow it, it's okay for us to buy and sell some silk privately, right?"

When Qin Bo heard this, his eyes widened suddenly.

Seeing his expression, Feng Da Sima's smile widened and he slowed down his tone again:

"Chief Qin, please don't tell me that your school office is in Jingzhou and can't even collect a single piece of silk?"

"Okay, okay! No problem at all!"

Qin Bo seemed to be afraid that Feng Da Sima would regret it, so he answered quickly.

I don’t know if this is possible, whether silk can be bought and sold privately, or silk can be collected, or both.

Probably after receiving this good news, Qin Bo stood up again, rubbed his hands, his face glowed with excitement, and asked a little embarrassedly:

"Da Sima, this silk, uh, what I want to ask is, uh, if His Majesty really doesn't agree to this, how much silk will Xinghan take?"

"The more, the better," Feng Dasima picked up the tea cup, blew on it, took another sip, and said casually, "We will charge you as much as you can sell."

When Qin Bo heard this, he immediately blurted out: "Seriously?!"

Feng Da Sima raised his eyelids and glanced at the other party.

"Ah! I made a mistake, I made a mistake, I deserve a slap!" Qin Bo raised his hand and slapped himself, "This little man is in trouble."

Then he carefully explained, "The villain is just worried that if too much silk is collected at once, will it cause a backlog?"

"That's not what you have to worry about, just accept it."

Feng Da Sima waved his hand, "I'm afraid you won't be able to take it back."

After saying this, he seemed to have remembered something, and he explained it with difficulty:

"Not to mention the south of Nanjun, even the entire Jingzhou, and even Jiangdong, I can eat."

When Qin Bo heard this, he was secretly speechless. He felt that Da Sima's ability was improved to another level. He felt that it was really unfathomable.

Feng Da Sima glanced at Qin Bo thoughtfully.

Even Qin Bo, who often dealt with the Han Dynasty, now seems to lack considerable imagination about the Han Dynasty's textile industry.

As for the Jiangdong side, I probably can't imagine it.

As for Xuchang, I'm afraid it's even more unimaginable.

Otherwise, a dignified prime minister, Chang Shi, would not have defected to him. Apart from being used for publicity at the beginning, there was not much news later.

General Cao is just as he was in history, monopolizing power, acting arrogant and extravagant, being disloyal to the royal family, and being dishonest to humanity. There is no change at all.

No matter how it was, the more it was like this, the less they could imagine what kind of huge monster they would face in the future.

There are three main horse-producing places in the world: Liang, Bing and You.

And after acquiring Liangzhou, why was the Han able to form a more powerful cavalry army than Wei?

That was all made with massive resources.

Where do these resources come from?

While vigorously developing productivity, it also targeted aristocratic families and used all means to crazily siphon resources from all parties.

These parties are not just Wei and Wu.

And outside the territory.

For example, Hua Xiaowu's cavalry went all the way south across the Ailao Mountains to obtain jade for polishing telescopes and Linyi rice seeds.

Not to mention the north.

Nowadays, horse thieves on the grassland rob wool first and then other things - wool is more valuable than cattle and sheep, and it is easier to escape.

The most important thing is that it does not harm the sheep, and it is a sustainable business without capital.

As for the west, after the Zhang family re-opened the Western Regions, the Silk Road, which was known to the world in later generations, and caravan exchanges became even more continuous.

Silk, brown sugar, tea, etc. are the most popular products on this road.

A brown sugar brick can be exchanged for half a piece of gold of the same volume in the Western Regions.

If it is sold with honey and tea bricks, it will be doubled.

The Feng family's concubine's brother-in-law (Li Tong) innovated beekeeping technology based on summarizing previous experience.

But after all, the output is still far from enough. It is great to be able to meet the daily needs of the top dignitaries in the capital of Han Dynasty.

Therefore, the honey from the Han Dynasty was transported to the Western Regions, and was sealed with fine celadon by some unscrupulous caravans, and then the celadon was wrapped with beautiful silk.

Then, in conjunction with the superior culture that the powerful Han people had accumulated in the Western Regions for hundreds of years, they vigorously promoted and sold honey, euphemistically calling it fairy dew.

The heads and chiefs of the countries in the Western Regions flocked to it, and sometimes it was even more popular than silk.

As for brown sugar, even though Jingzhou delivers large quantities of raw sugar to the Han Dynasty every year, brown sugar is a strategic material, no matter how it is produced, it is far from enough.

It's not enough for military use, let alone civilian use.

The most popular things on the grassland are tea and spirits.

For a few bricks of tea and a jar of strong liquor, some horse-roping men on the grasslands would even package up and sell their wives and daughters.

Therefore, tea flowing into the Western Regions is also rare.
