The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 340: Getting rich from oil? Daming’s income is not even one-tenth of theirs!
"Lin Xiangru had already left successfully at that time. There was no need to go to war with Zhao just for a piece of He's Bi."

If Zhao was weak, how could King Zhaoxiang let go of this golden opportunity?

Using this as an excuse to start a war with Zhao State, we can not only capture Zhao State in one fell swoop, but also enhance the prestige of Qin State!
Fusu was speechless for a moment, "I just took it for granted."

"You should learn from Li Si." Ying Zheng glanced at him.

Fusu quickly lowered his head and said, "My son, I know."

Ying Zheng did not dwell on this matter anymore. His son naturally knew that it would be difficult to change his temper.

But it's not harmful, it's enough to be a conservative king.

He did become somewhat interested in the oil.

“What kind of treasure is oil?”

"It's dark, like black sticky water. I don't know what kind of treasure it is."

Ying Zheng had never heard of any treasure that looked like this.

But if the United States can send troops immediately after hearing about it, this oil must be very important.

After pondering for a moment, Ying Zheng waved his sleeves and stood up, "Come with me to have a look."

He wanted to see what kind of treasure it was for future generations!
At this time, the sky screen has already played the next video, which is still related to oil.

[When you see these countries that have become rich due to oil, you will never imagine how poor they were before! 】

【Brunei! During the Ming Dynasty, it was our vassal state, and it was only the size of a small county town]

【but! Such a small place is now one of the richest countries. Oil alone brings in more than 100 billion yuan every year! 】

[If this were placed in ancient times, how much silver would it be? Let’s choose a compromise conversion ratio, convert one thousand yuan into one tael of silver in ancient times! That’s more than 100 million taels of silver! 】

One hundred million taels of silver? One year? !

Countless people stared at this number!

However, this is not over yet!

[The cartel used to make a living by fishing. After discovering a large amount of oil, the annual revenue from oil now reaches more than 200 billion yuan, which is more than 200 million taels of silver! 】

When the third country read it out, countless people gasped and their eyes turned red!

[Saudi Arabia, a well-known oil power, now receives at least 16 billion in oil every day! Last year’s oil revenue was more than trillion yuan! Equivalent to three billion taels of silver! 】

[But before a large amount of oil was discovered, Saudi Arabia was very poor. Their land was barren and food was scarce, so they had to rely on nomadism to survive. Now with oil, they became rich overnight! 】

Zhu Di stood up suddenly in shock.

Three billion taels of silver?

“What on earth is this oil that is so profitable?!”

The ministers in the court also widened their eyes and stared at the contents on the sky screen in disbelief.

Is this a joke?
Just from oil alone, there is such an income every year?

This...could he be playing tricks on them?

But every time what is mentioned on the marquee, unless it is a fabricated story, most of it is true.

This doesn't look like a fabricated script, does it?
Zheng He looked hesitant, "Brunei, I know this country."

As soon as these words came out, dozens of pairs of eyes in the court suddenly looked at Zheng He!

"When I went to the West, I went to Brunei."

Zhu Di said with a hint of urgency: "How is Brunei?"

"The area is only about the size of one of our top counties, and the lives of Brunei people are relatively poor."

"Last year, Brunei became a satellite state of our Ming Dynasty."

Although Zheng He had some impressions of Brunei, his impression was not deep.

There is no way, he has visited countless countries on his voyages to the West. But Brunei is too small. Such a small country is really inconspicuous in the Ming Dynasty, which has many dependent countries.

This is why no one thought of Brunei when the topic was mentioned just now.

After hearing this, Zhu Di sat down slowly, "If what Tian Mu said is true, then Brunei was originally poor, but after having oil, it turned out..."

In just one county, the annual revenue from oil alone is as high as 100 million taels of silver!

Even without any taxes, this amount of money is enough to run Brunei!

Think of the Ming Dynasty, a huge country, but the annual tax revenue is only a few million taels of silver!
Not even...not even one-tenth of Brunei!
"As for the oil." Zheng He thought about it, "I think I've seen it before. It's dark, sticky, and has a pungent smell."

"They seem to be used as fertilizer, we just don't know what the yield is."

At that time, he wanted to promote the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, but Brunei was too small.

So Zheng He didn't pay too much attention.

Now Zheng He feels regretful. If he had known that the oil could make money, he would have heard everything he said.

"Your Majesty!" Xia Yuanji's eyes grew brighter and brighter as he heard this!
He insisted on the Wat Board and went out, "Your Majesty! Since this oil is real and has such huge profits, you must not miss it!"

All civil and military officials in the court looked at Zhu Di eagerly.

Everything the court does requires money, and if it has the huge income from oil!

No matter which department, it will be much easier to ask the household department for money in the future!
Zhu Di was also very moved, "Zheng He, please write me a summary of the specific situation in Brunei, especially the content about oil!"

"Yes!"

Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang, who had just ordered to save palace expenses, was caught off guard when he heard this series of amounts!
Liu Bang gasped. Even a small country has an income of 100 million? !
Is this oil so profitable? !
Liu Bang took three steps and two steps at a time and walked out of the palace, staring at the sky with burning eyes!

It should be noted that although the Han Dynasty was established, after the war, everything was in ruins and the treasury was extremely poor!
Don't talk about 100 million taels of silver. Even taking out 1 million taels of silver is enough!

There was little money and few supplies, but after the war money was needed everywhere.

Nowadays, the expenses in the palace are saved one after another.

They also discussed how to open source before, but in the end nothing happened.

just now……

Liu Bang looked at the sky passionately, and an idea slowly emerged.

The end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"Come here, make everyone anxious!" Zhang Jiao, who was wearing a Taoist robe, looked excited.

He looked at the oil on the sky and couldn't help laughing.

Ha ha ha ha! God bless my yellow scarf!

At this moment, Tianmu told them about oil, wasn't he just guiding them!
Soon, all the Yellow Turban Rebels were summoned.

Zhang Jiao stood on the high platform, raised his hands, and shouted: "Everyone! Heaven is conveying instructions to us through the sky!"

"Oil that can make small, poor countries rich is exactly what God has told us to do to solve the current shortage of money and food!"

The people below naturally saw the contents of the canopy.

They had never dared to imagine such a high amount.

But now, as long as they find oil, all the money will be theirs!

Zhang Jiao took everyone's expressions into consideration and smiled with satisfaction.

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand! If you are aged for a year, the world will be prosperous!"

"Oil, that's what Huang Tian gave us! God bless me, Huang Turban!"
