Chapter 1674: Site Selection Based on Time, Land and Sea Environment
Li Yi fell into deep thought after hearing Wang Wei's words to change the topic.
Where is the right place to build a bridge over the Yellow River? At that time, there were many bridges over the Yellow River, including one in Luoyang and another in Zhengzhou to the east of Luoyang.
"Luoyang goes to Heqing County on the other side. It is convenient for the Khitan people to take the land route to Luoyang on the other side, and it is also convenient for Henan Prefecture's goods to cross the river. Hebei Road should be developed."
After thinking for a moment, Li Yi gave a place.
His fundamental goal is Hebei, which has many plains. The location corresponding to the Hebei plains should be Kaifeng.
"Since it's for material transportation, why not Zhengzhou? The Bianzhou plain in the southwest of Zhengzhou is vast. I heard that Henan Prefecture grows indica rice, and Bianzhou takes the lead."
Changsun Xin put forward his own idea, and finally found a good place to repair it.
"Today Luoyang is the capital of the East, with a large population and a well-established official structure. All roads and bridges should be built with people in mind and dangerous borders."
Li Yi gave his own considerations. Bianzhou is indeed good. Tokyo in the Song Dynasty was close to the Grand Canal. The disadvantage is that there is no danger to defend.
Wang Wei also helped Meng Yifu pick snails: "Are you worried about the dangers of Zhengzhou and Luoyang?"
"No, the Tang Dynasty where I am does not need to take advantage of danger. After two years, we will first push away the Turks and use the Turks' location to contain the Bohai Sea country.
The Tubo side expelled them to invade Tianzhu. We went to most areas of Tubo and went north to prepare for the white food. The Silk Road must be opened.
To the west of Longyou Road, it connects to the Wakhan Corridor. That road is passable in all seasons, and trouble begins. "
Li Yi thought as he spoke, Zhang Sunxin and the other two looked blank, while Meng Yifu continued happily eating snails dipped in honey and ignoring important matters.
Li Yi looked up and stretched out his hand: "I will draw a map for you."
Qingsong pulled the box, and Ziyu brought the things next to him. What do you want in the box?
Li Yi began to draw: "Here, now in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, under the jurisdiction of the Anxi Protectorate, most of the local people live and have been canonized by the Tang Dynasty. It is actually broken. We only guard Dashi City. This is Sulu. Tu Qishi..."
Li Yi told several people that Xuanzang took this path to obtain Buddhist scriptures.
Pakistan at that time was part of ancient India. Continuing further north, it reached the Indian Ocean.
There is Iran next to it, and when we go to the end along the Persian Gulf, there is no way.
Going down, there is the Suez Canal. It is not clear whether it is blocked or open. Anyway, it can be easily cleared if it is blocked.
The Suez Canal has existed for a long time. It is neither deep nor wide. As long as it can pass ships, you still want to use an aircraft carrier?
"If you go this way by land, if you choose the sea route, it is currently used by barbarian merchants..."
Li Yi also drew routes and places on the sea, from Haizhou to the south.
To Vietnam, Vietnam leads to Singapore to the south, crosses the Strait of Malacca, does not go to the Bay of Bengal, goes straight to Sri Lanka, enters the Arabian Sea, and reaches Pakistan, where the two points converge.
"Look, the relationship between sea routes and land routes."
Li Yi put down his pen, far away, right? The land route is a little difficult to travel, and the transportation volume is small. Large ships at sea can carry a lot at one time.
The four of them, Changsun Xin: "..."
"Alas~~" After more than ten breaths, Wang Wei sighed and felt inferior.
"Gangrou, where did you...learn it?" Meng Haoran was also very sad.
While drawing, Li Yi compared the information and gave the names of various places in the Tang Dynasty, including Annan, Poli, Champa, Jiaozhi, Senggao, Wuling, Jiacha, Jiumi, Goluo, Kurumi, Funan, and Jimi. , Heling...
All of these things, and occasionally talk about local conditions, what clothes to wear, what kind of food to grow, etc.
"Some records are in Sui books, some are records of courtiers in the Tang Dynasty, and some...well...well...anyway, it works very well, and I am always grateful for it.
Its... surname is Liba, the single name has a Tang character, and my character is System. Yes, there is nothing wrong with the Li Tang Li system. "
It was too easy for Li Yi to check information. Wherever he wanted to check, he listed it directly.
System: "⊙ω⊙"
"It's like this. I only know some of the situations on the way to obtain the scriptures, but I have never been exposed to others."
Wang Wei likes Buddhism and Taoism, and needs to know it when studying Buddhism.
"Gangrou, when will you write a book? Give me a copy." Meng Haoran wanted to go directly to the book school.
"No, it can't be circulated at the moment. It will provide information for other people. No, OK! I will write it later, including the map and the customs of each place."
Li Yi refused at first, then thought that the Tang Dynasty caravan was going out, and it would be too strenuous for them to force their way in without giving them anything.
Li Yi said as he picked up a snail, and a drop of juice fell out as he moved it.
‘Shua~! ’ Ge Yan, who was always watching next to him, took away a pile of paper before the juice fell on the paper, and the juice fell on... Bihe's outstretched palm.
Huang Bai helped Ge Yan roll the paper, and Jin Ju handed Bi He a wet handkerchief.
"Yes, yes, the picture cannot be tainted. Are you going to present it to...that...Fangqu County Duke?" Wang Wei couldn't remember Li Longji's other identity.
"Third brother, there's one there. It's clearer and bigger than what I'm painting now."
Li Yi gave Li Longji a set of world maps and a globe he made.
Where there is no Tang Dynasty name on it, numerical numbers will be used. Whenever you come into contact with a place, you will give it a name.
"Give it to me!" Changsun Xin asked for it. He wanted to show it to his wife.
He looked at Li Yi and understood again why the prime ministers and ministers always came to Li Yi to discuss things. Who always has a lot of things in their head?
Zhuangzi said nonsense, everything in my life has a limit, but knowledge has no limit. If there is no limit, then there is no limit, it's already dead!
Zhuangzi, come out and tell me what is in front of me?
"If you don't dislike this kind of bad work... don't hold it back, give it to me." Li Yi said and found Huang Bai holding the picture against his chest.
"Master, let's copy one." Ge Yan stood in front of Huang Bai.
"Thank you!" Changsun Xin was helpless. You can just copy it. It's about the same.
"Thank you!" "Thank you!" Wang Wei and Meng Haoran followed and said, we want one too.
Han Xiangke smiled. She also knew the value of this map. She searched the whole world and found it nowhere else.
If you can't draw a map clearly, it's nothing like what you just saw. If you sell it, you can sell it for 10,000 coins. Someone will rush to pay for it.
I'll go back and find the Sui Shu and the overseas records before this dynasty, and teach them to Yifu.
While talking, the rain outside gradually became lighter.
Meng Yifu stopped eating and said to Wang Wei, "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
"You didn't eat much. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net "Wang Wei looked at it and saw about 30 snail meats.
"There will be a main meal in the evening. Uncle Li said that eating too much snacks will make the main meal difficult to swallow, which is not good for health. Mother said that self-cultivation should be self-disciplined."
Meng Yifu resisted the desire to continue eating and answered obediently.
"Go find Yan'er and see if he has eaten?" Li Yi knew that Meng Yifu didn't want to stay.
Meng Yifu really picked up the food and looked at his parents. After they nodded, he took the snail meat to find the little guy to play.
Han Xiangke was most satisfied. It was a good thing that his son had more contact with the future prince.
"It depends on the situation. Can the rain stop before dark? Gangrou go to Zuixianju?" Wang Wei planned to find Li Yi for a drink in the evening.
"On the boat at night, your people come up, just don't walk around casually. I will send someone to pick up Xun'er and Qian'er, and go to Zuixianju tomorrow."
Li Yi didn't want to go down. After the rain, the air was humid and a little cold. Zuixianju was not as comfortable as a yacht.
