Chapter 479

"Additionally, the Indochina Peninsula further south also has a large amount of fertile land that can be reclaimed into fertile fields;"

"That is the true place for three harvests a year;"

"And there exists a high-yield Champa rice there; this rice variety has an extremely high yield and must be obtained."

"Therefore, the sea transport route to the South China Sea must be opened, and the sooner the better!"

"I want both Taking Taking Jiaozhou and the Indochina Peninsula!"

Su Xuan said firmly.

Not only here, he wants to take the whole world in the future.

In addition, he is also prepared to obtain high-yield crops like sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn from South America, and cotton from South Asia and Central Asia at the right time.

To improve the world's grain production in the future, so that the people of the world can truly eat their fill.

Only then can he quickly increase the population.

The path he wants to take in the future requires more population to realize.

Without high-yield crops, it is unrealistic to want to occupy the whole world.

"Hiss?"

Guo Jia and the others gasped in shock: "The South China Sea and Taking Taking Jiaozhou are actually that good? Isn't that a treasure land?"

"If we had known this earlier, wouldn't our Great Han have attacked long ago?"

Seeing Xun You You frowned: "But the fact is no! There have always been rumors that Taking Taking Jiaozhou is barren, cold, and even a desolate place filled with miasma!"

"This is completely different from what you described, my lord!"

"Things are not like that!"

Su Xuan smiled and shook his head: "Taking Taking Jiaozhou has many mountains and dense forests; it hasn't been developed, so naturally there is a lot of miasma;"

"But as long as it is developed, it is a treasure land;"

"The Indochina Peninsula is even more so!"

"Even now, many places along the Pearl River have already been developed, supporting a large number of people and scholar-clans in Taking Taking Jiaozhou;"

"It's just that because transportation with the Central Plains is inconvenient and it is far away, plus the cover-up by the vested interest scholar-clans in Taking Taking Jiaozhou, you don't know the benefits of Taking Taking Jiaozhou;"

"But with advanced sea transport and naval warships, after we open up stable sea transport routes to Taking Taking Jiaozhou and the Indochina Peninsula, everything will be different;"

"Additionally, in the future, I also plan to dredge and excavate the Xiang River and the Pearl River, connecting the river transport on both sides, and completely opening up the river transport on land;"

"At the same time, we can also excavate and build a land road to Taking Taking Jiaozhou, completely bringing Taking Taking Jiaozhou under control."

"Anyway, the Military Armaments Department and the Ministry of Works have already built mechanical creations for excavation and construction... and have also developed excellent explosives, detonators, and other thermal weapons, plus reinforced concrete; moving mountains and filling seas is no longer a difficult task for us."

Don't underestimate the technical development and accumulation of a heaven-defying cheater over these years!

If all of it is revealed, it will absolutely subvert the world's cognition.

Just look, even Guo Jia and Su Yu on the side widened their eyes in shock: "No way? Am I ignorant? Has the technical development of the Military Armaments Department and the Ministry of Works reached this level?"

"Hehe!"

Seeing Xun You You, who knew quite a few things, stroked his beard and smiled: "So, Guo Guo Fengxiao, you should still go to the Military Armaments Department and the Ministry of Works more often on weekdays to know to what extent our technology has progressed!"

"Otherwise, if you don't understand for a long time, you will soon be eliminated."

"Haha! That's right!"

Su Xuan smiled, looked at Guo Jia and Su Yu: "Guo Guo Fengxiao! Second Brother! You are one of my top strategists, and the other is the person in charge of the Su Family Chamber of Commerce, mastering the economic lifeline of my Su family. How can you be lazy and outdated in such matters?"

"This is your dereliction of duty; you must not be like this again!"

"How about this: from now on, you must set aside one or two days every month to go to the Military Armaments Department and the Ministry of Works to understand the progress and improvement of technology, so as not to really fall behind!"

Military and business are closely related to technology; how can you not understand?

Guo Jia was a bit anxious and quickly expressed: "Yes! This subordinate understands!"

"Me too!"

Su Yu also quickly bowed and expressed.

It was their negligence.

At this time, Seeing Xun You You stroked his beard and said: "Taking Taking Taking Jiaozhou and even the Indochina Peninsula first is indeed a good direction for development!"

"Currently, we lack the time to digest Jingzhou and cultivate more talents who can adapt to and execute the New Policy!"

"Therefore, at least for the next 2 years, we cannot expand on a large scale to other states and counties of the Great Han!"

"Moreover, if we show too much aggressiveness toward these places, it will also make other warlords feel fearful;"

"By then, it is not excluded that they will unite to deal with us just like they dealt with Dong Zhuo!"

"But if we attack Taking Taking Jiaozhou and the Indochina Peninsula, this problem will not exist!"

"Because of the closed transportation, by the time we take these two places, they might not even know the news;"

"Even if they know, they will only think we are stupid, not occupying the Central Plains but attacking and developing a desolate land, which will make them relax their vigilance against us, which is conducive to our rapid conquest of the Central Plains later."
