But when the ancestor looked happy, he suddenly pointed at Li Shimin, and praised: "What the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said was exactly what I mean. Although this thing is a treasure in the world, one should have selfish intentions. Although I am an outsider, I only think about the Han family in my heart. Why should I share good things with outsiders? Isn't it better to use them secretly by myself?"

He stopped and looked at Li Yun, saying with a deep meaning: "With this picture in hand, the world is in the palm of your heart, we are familiar with areas that others are not familiar with, and we can easily reach mountains, rivers that others do not know, and we can plan ahead of others in everything, even if we just use it to guide the long-distance trade route, we can still seek good luck and avoid bad luck and make a fortune. Isn't this kind of thing fragrant?"

Isn't this kind of thing fragrant?

What a familiar word!

Li Yun's eyes subconsciously shine, as if he is back to the era of pressing the keyboard to point out the country.

Listening to the last words of the ancestor, he said with great sincerity, "Why should we give the treasures that I have brought to outsiders for free? Good disciple, you are such a prodigal son. This means that I have a weak temper in recent years. If I had to slap you to death in the past, please listen to me. Our Chinese treasures can only be taken by themselves. If outsiders want to enjoy them, they will not give them to them even if they kneel down..."

Li Yun was dumbfounded when he heard this.

He really didn't expect that the ancestor would have the temper of an angry young man.

However, Li Shimin laughed loudly, and all the royal families in the room laughed happily. Everyone looked at the world map with excitement and said to each other: "This is the second good thing I have given, and I have already controlled all the world. After having this thing, the Tang Dynasty knew themselves and enemies. For example, the situation of various countries along the Silk Road can be fully understood by just one map!"

The world map is also a map that fits this era. This is equivalent to being familiar with all the regional patterns in the world and being used to guide the Silk Road is simply useless...

This time I really want to make a fortune.

Li Shimin and the elders of the royal family were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.

Only Li Yun suddenly turned his head and looked at the Taoist boy with a longing look on his face. At this time, the Taoist boy was eating food slowly. Li Yun rubbed his big hands and rushed forward to serve him, pinching his shoulders and pounding his back, constantly pleasing to behave and shouting sweetly: "Master, you have given you the third good thing."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately reminded everyone, and the room was silent in an instant, and everyone looked at them again.

The crazy desire in his eyes scared the crazy King Qi Ren couldn't help but tremble.

...

However, everyone did not expect that the ancestor did not immediately say the third benefit. Instead, he looked at Li Yun with a deep expression and asked with a hint of intent: "We are planning and strategizing. Whenever we want to do something, we must plan everything in advance, clarify our ideas and lay the foundation. We must not only imagine the successful ending, but also beware of failure factors. I will now ask you, how do you do the Silk Road?"

This seems to be an assessment, but it is actually a guide. Li Yun's heart moved slightly and vaguely guessed the meaning of the ancestor... As a later generation, he must be skilled in the Silk Road. Even if he is not a Chinese who is proficient in history, he can still say a word about the Silk Road. The reason is very simple. This is something in the nine-year compulsory education textbook.

However, people in the Tang Dynasty were not familiar with these things!

Although the Silk Road was opened in the Han Dynasty, it was cut off for hundreds of years due to wars. The ancient technology was not developed enough, and the information was difficult to keep smooth. In addition, the inheritance of historical materials was treasured by itself, resulting in misunderstandings often occurring in future generations when interpreting previous generations.

Misunderstanding is the most serious matter in the inheritance of historical materials.

When one generation interprets misunderstandings, the next generation will continue on the basis of misunderstandings. If the next generation has misunderstandings, the next generation will definitely have deeper misunderstandings.

If the accumulation of generation after generation is more than a slight difference, it is a huge mistake?

The records of the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty were very clear, but they had lost their essence for hundreds of years. In addition, the ancients liked to use concise words to record things and often recorded a big event in one sentence. For example, the caravans worked extremely hard all the way through mountains and rivers, and finally went to a country in the Western Regions to do a business. Maybe after more than ten years, they encountered countless hardships during this period. However, how do they record it in history books? It is likely that the light sentence "Go to a certain country, get a lot of money."

This has no reference value at all.

...

Since he realized the meaning of the ancestor, Li Yun naturally had to follow the ancestor's instructions. He took a breath and was about to organize the language to speak. However, the ancestor laughed and suddenly asked everyone with a smile: "Everyone, are you having a meal?"

uh-huh?

Everyone was stunned and a little confused.

But the ancestor smiled and said leisurely: "Why are people struggling and fighting between heaven and earth? Even if the emperor of Gao Jiuding enjoys the glory and wealth, after seeing through the essence, he is just a full meal and warm clothing. I would like to ask everyone, don't you think you are hungry? He yelled all day, and half an hour ago, he shouted for dinner. The big pot was carried, and the pot was full of meat. What's the result? He kept delaying and discussing matters, and it seemed that he was guiding the country and the people, but your belly was probably hungry long ago..."

As if to cooperate with the Taoist boy's joke, I suddenly heard a rumbling sound in someone's stomach. The Taoist boy immediately smiled and pointed at him and said, "Look, I'm hungry."

Suddenly, the King of Qi Ren sneered and said with a sarcastic expression: "You old guy, don't pretend to be a good person. It was obviously you who used a dish of fried pork with pepper to break them, so that they would forget about eating, but now they pretend to be a master of being able to teach them a lesson. You old guy is simply a shameless ancestor."

This sentence was not worthy of face at all, but what was said was the truth. Everyone was shocked when they heard it, and even Li Yun was a little worried.

Everyone is afraid that the ancestor will not be able to hold on.

But Tong laughed and suddenly nodded with a Zheng-key look on his face, saying, "The King of Qi is right. I have also made a mistake in my own mistake but went to train others. I sincerely apologize and hope you can forgive me."

Everyone dared not accept his apology. Li Shimin quickly stood up and called him, and changed the topic: "I am really hungry and I feel a little uncomfortable, I guess the younger generations are even more hungry."

...

The big pot was still venting at the door, and a pile of firewood was added to the bottom of the pot. It was not someone else who was responsible for the fire. It was the little princes who were punished not long ago. The poor princes had been frugal since childhood, but at this moment they became fire-burning kids with a gray face on the bottom of the pot. They were pitiful and full of fear.

But no one spoke out to rescue them.

If you make a mistake, you have to be punished.

More than a few princes were punished, and even their mothers were punished. The concubines had resentment because of their children being beaten and looked at Linglong's belly with vicious eyes. As a result, Cheng Chumo and others were keenly aware of this, which led to the strange thing of carrying the pot to the door for a meal.

Li Shimin issued a strict order that the concubines must squat by the pot to eat, each with a big bone stick, and they did not even give them a decent piece of fat, so they were asked to chew bones, and they had to squat on the ground to chew.

This is a way to suppress identity and arrogance, but Li Yun was a little envious of the several punished concubines. People in this era always think that fat is a good thing, and they think that gnawing bones is the most humiliating thing. In fact, big bones are called fragrant. Those big bones were originally left to him by Li Yun...

He had no choice but to hold a bowl of fat in disappointment. The bowl was filled with a large bowl of fat meat, and another bowl filled with thick broth. The fragrance spreads everywhere, and the top is full of greasy oil. The one who served him the rice was A Yao. The wife's face was sneaky and nervous, and she lowered her voice and kept urging: "Husband, eat it quickly, don't let everyone see it. I'm serving you all fat meat. If someone sees it, you will definitely laugh at me."

Li Yun took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and praised: "A Yao is so nice, she deserves to be my wife."

A Yao's pretty face was immediately rosy, and she was obviously very happy to be praised.

However, Li Yun could only smile bitterly in his heart.

After a thousand years, anyone who eats fat will definitely offend anyone. However, this era is different. A Yao is really a good wife who loves others.

It seemed like I saw the ancestor blinking secretly at him with a very childlike interest. The ancestor was the only person who could understand Li Yun's helplessness. The ancestor's bowl was full of good things such as trunks and pig ears.

"Old greedy cat!"

Li Yun complained in his heart, and suddenly rubbed over with a thick face, holding the bowl and said, "Master, the disciple is filial to you. I see that your bowl is full of pigs. How about the disciple changing it with fat meat for you?"

The Taoist boy looked at him with a smile. Although his eyes were closed, it seemed to have light. Suddenly, he raised his hand with one hand and said with a smile: "If I continue to hit this palm, no one in the world can withstand it. Good disciple, I will ask you if you are a stubborn person."

Li Yun gave up his thoughts in disappointment.

But he was not helpless, so he simply sat directly beside the ancestor with a bowl in his hand, listening to the sound of wolfing everywhere in the house. The elders of the royal family were eating and paying attention to the movements here, especially Li Shimin and others, who were sitting around the corner. Li Yun's eyes turned and suddenly shouted loudly: "About the Silk Road, you must prepare for the future..."

His speech immediately attracted everyone's attention. Even the Taoist boy subconsciously put down his bowls and chopsticks, and the King of Qi was even more curious and squeezed his head over.

Li Yun took a breath, changed his face to a solemn expression, and said, "We want to open the Silk Road. To put it bluntly, we want to make money, make countless money, and make the greatest profit. There is an old saying among the people: goods are expensive to leave their hometowns, and people are cheaper to leave their hometowns. It means that the farther the goods are sold, the higher the profits they earn. If they can go thousands or even tens of thousands of miles, the profits they earn will definitely be a huge profit. But what about people? The further away from their hometowns, the more likely they encounter problems. People are cheaper to leave their hometowns, which is this description. But after we open the Silk Road, we must use people to carry goods to keep traveling far away. People are cheaper to leave their hometowns, and goods are expensive to leave their hometowns. Since ancient times, people die for money and birds die for food. The Silk Road must be a difficult road."
