The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 364 "Heavenly Creation" Upgrade

Zhao Feng opened "Heavenly Craftsmanship", and examined it carefully. For a whole month, he almost forgot to sleep and eat.

At this time, the book is already half the height of a person, and the things in it are all-encompassing and really complicated.

If Zhao Feng's current memory had not been fundamentally improved due to the skyrocketing fortunes of the nation, he might not be able to remember what he saw before, or what happened before.

The more he read this book, the more excited he became. There are indeed countless new things in it.

To be precise, it is some new inventions, oil refining technology, and sealing technology that are of great significance to the present!
And this oil refining technology is definitely valuable in this book!
Petroleum is not just something that can be burned. For the current situation, the most important thing is that this thing can provide abundant materials.

Refining petroleum can not only obtain a large amount of kerosene, but also obtain extremely critical asphalt.

And this asphalt, of course, is for paving the road.

Now the road surface of Great Wei is really worrying, and looking at the whole road from Wei to Rome, the road along this road seriously hinders trade exchanges.

If a flat avenue can be built, it will have a huge impact on future exchanges between the East and the West.

Once roads are built at the national level, it will benefit the people below.

After all, the huge savings in transportation costs and the great improvement in efficiency will make it easier for more people to switch things between the two sides, gain more profits, and further increase the trade between the two sides, thereby strengthening the relationship between the two sides.

This enables the continuous exchange of materials between the East and the West, and further improves the life of Wei.

Of course, in oil refining technology, many by-products are obtained through high-temperature distillation.

Although Zhao Feng now has regular glass bottles for distilling fine wines, if he wants to obtain by-products such as kerosene, he needs to further manufacture high-temperature-resistant glass bottles on a large scale.

The biggest use of this thing is the efficiency of the steam engine.

If there is no sealing technology, there will inevitably be a lot of air leaks, and the higher the water pressure, the more obvious the air leaks, which will seriously affect the efficiency of the steam engine.

With this thing, the efficiency of the ships built by Zhou Yu and the others will be greatly improved, and they can travel anywhere directly.

"Oil is located in the area of ​​Guishuang. Now the people of Guishuang have benefited greatly from the trade, mining all kinds of minerals, so that they can make money whether they are big nobles or the common people below! However, Guishuang's most resource is clearly oil."

Zhao Feng thought that there would be so much oil here in future generations that it would never run out. The world's largest and second largest production is here, and the cost of mining is low. If you drill a well in some areas, what comes out is not water, but water. It's rolling oil.

Elsewhere, oil is gold, and in these places, oil is the most hated thing, and water is more expensive than gold.

Thinking of this, Zhao Feng couldn't help laughing: "It's all right now, I have brought you benefits! In the past, I can contract the oil that was a headache for you in the future!"

However, who will complete this refining process?
If you want to engage in large-scale oil refining in Guishuang, then steel manufacturing, glass manufacturing and other processes must also be moved there. With the westward travel of these technologies, Guishuang will definitely change the trade route of Wei to a certain extent. Take on the position of the leader!

Therefore, people in Guishuang must be absolutely loyal and capable!
Zhuge Liang was definitely fine, but Zhao Feng wanted to send Zhuge Liang further away to Rome. After all, that place was equally important, and someone needed to take care of all the matters there.

After much deliberation, Xun Yu is still reliable.

Xun Yu is stable and extremely capable. Moreover, he was born in Confucianism, and he is extremely loyal to Zhao Feng.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Zhao Feng felt that if these crafts were set up in Guishuang, the crafts there must be protected, and the people who understand these technologies must be protected. was leaked out.

Therefore, heavy military protection, plainclothes protection, all kinds of means are needed.

This is doomed, the management organization established by Guishuang must be a military-political integration, and it will be highly independent of Wei!
There were such institutions in the past, such as enfeoffment and the Protectorate of the Western Regions.

After much deliberation, Zhao Feng finally came up with an idea.

Soon, he called several counselors.

"I intend to set up the Protectorate, what do you think?"

Guo Jia was surprised: "The Protectorate's Mansion? Your Majesty, the Western Regions are considered inland now, why set up that thing?"

Zhao Feng laughed immediately: "It's not the Western Regions, but a Guishuang Capital Protectorate was set up to be stationed in Guishuang!"

Guo Jia was even more surprised: "Didn't Your Majesty say that you need to rely on trade and commerce to stabilize Guishuang? And now it seems that this is indeed the case. Guishuang is indeed tied together by our economy! The establishment of the Protectorate , what to do? Don’t we have the Ministry of Commerce stationed in various places to do things?”

Zhao Feng nodded: "That's right. However, that was in the past. I want to move steel, glass and other crafts to Guishuang, and start some new crafts to prevent these technologies from being robbed by Guishuang people or others." , I must send heavy troops to guard there."

Ju Shou, who had just returned to Beijing, immediately frowned: "Your Majesty, steel is a technology that is related to the lifeblood of the country. How can it be placed there? Glassware, although we have certain restrictions and do not make more exquisite things, but everyone knows, then It is also a sharp weapon for gold digging!"

"If it is leaked, don't say anything else, high-purity fine wine will not be our patent in the future!"

Zhao Feng spread his hands: "So, I need to send troops to guard them, I need to send secret personnel to protect them, and I need someone to sit there and take care of the overall situation!"

Guo Jia nodded and said: "Your Majesty's whimsical ideas can always change the Great Wei, and even change the situation in a wider range. , if you really want to create these crafts there, then it is indeed the most appropriate to set up the Protectorate's Mansion!"

Later, Xun Yu was transferred to Guishuang and began to sit there for a long time!

"What? Your Majesty asked me to take full responsibility for building the Guishuang Protectorate? Appoint me as the Guishuang Protector?"

Xun Yu was stunned.

"Your Majesty, you trust me too much!"

A large amount of gold was transferred to Guishuang, and recently, the large amount of money earned by Dawei in Guishuang area was no longer sent to the mainland of Dawei. Zhao Feng directly ordered that the huge amount of money here be kept and set up for Gou Yu. It is used by the Protectorate.

"Chen, I will definitely live up to expectations!"

After Xun Yu received the drawings of oil refining and other processes, he immediately sent people to find out where the thing was.

If these things are all in the north of Guishuang, then of course his Protectorate should be located in the north;

His people received a lot of news, and all the news pointed to the oil in the offshore area.

After hearing the news, Xun Yu started to build a new city in the southwestern region of the Guishuang Empire, three hundred miles west of the great city Talmina, and transported talents from various industries to this place on a large scale.
