Chapter 1215 Wang Yang's bragging is definitely not the kind that floats in the sky (first update)
Chapter 1224

Of course, in this era, it would be good if the proven mineral reserves of Song Dynasty could be one-fifth or even one-tenth of that in the 21st century.

So Wang Yang told these big guys here that the copper mines in the Northeast are three times the total proven reserves of the Song Dynasty, and the high-quality iron ore is ten times the total proven reserves of the Song Dynasty. As for the coal mines, there is also a five or six times,
And there are about three times as many gold mines. As for oil, it is called kerosene in this era, and the reserves there are even as large as a vast ocean, because the oil in the hinterland of Song Dynasty is really pitifully small, almost not much.

That is to say, Shen Kuo, an old driver who is proficient in everything in astronomy and geography, only knows a little bit, and the others have no idea at all.

In short, as exaggerated as you can say, you can exaggerate as much as you can. Bragging depends entirely on your level, but Wang Yang's bragging is definitely not the kind that floats in the sky, but the real one. The veins and bones are very clear and heavy. Gan Hua, after all, these are facts.

"Wang Wushan, is there any basis for what you said?" Emperor Zhao Xu inhaled continuously, he felt that the H2O in the air was almost not enough.

The other two bosses were not much better at the moment. Zhang Li covered his heart with his big hand, as if he would have a myocardial infarction at any time. Speeding up is for sure, after all, that old face is as red as a monkey's butt right now.

And Su Dongpo's eyes were fixed on Wang Yang, as if he was not looking at a person, but a golden mountain.

"That's right, our Privy Council has now begun to carry out intelligence work to infiltrate the land of Liaodong, but we have never heard of any minerals in the bitter cold land of Liaodong. If there are, then the Northern Liao may have already It’s time to start digging there.”

Su Dongpo also frowned, always thinking that Wang Yang was bragging, no, he was talking about the Guanghan high-speed railway.

After all, although the land in Liaodong has always been valued by the empires in the Central Plains, it was not because it was rich in products, but because it belonged to Kyushu.

Since the beginning of writing, the Northeast as a region has been included in the classics. "Shangshu Yugong" was the first to record the Northeast into the classics, and divided ancient China into "Kyushu", among which "Jizhou" has covered the western part of Liaoning Province.

"Qingzhou" placed the southern part of Liaoning, mainly the Liaodong Peninsula, under the jurisdiction of the state.According to legend, "Kyuzhou" was set up by Yu after he controlled the water, and Shun analyzed "Kyuzhou" as "Twelve Prefectures". Among them, the northeast of Jizhou is Youzhou, that is, the area west of Liaoning is referred to as Liaoxi; the "northeast" of Qingzhou is Yingzhou, which is now The area east of Beizhen is called Liaodong.

Therefore, any dynasty that aspires to the world has its mission to unify the nine states.Even in a bitter cold place like the Northeast, even for a dynasty like the Song Dynasty, it seemed to be a useless place with little use.

However, just because it belongs to the scope of the land of Kyushu, then if it is not included in the rule of the Song Dynasty, it would be a disservice to the ancestors, let alone the sages of the Chinese nation.

But now, Wang Yang actually told everyone that rice can be grown there. Well, this should be true. After all, Wa and Nagoryeo, two countries that are almost at the same latitude as the Northeast, also grow and eat that stuff.

What is even more exaggerated is that the countless minerals that Wang Yang mentioned afterwards also greatly moved people's hearts.

However, such news is actually more absurd and ridiculous than the fact that rice can be grown in Liaodong.After all, that piece of land has been occupied by Beiliao for at least 200 years.

And those Beiliao people didn't find out, but how did you Wang Wushan know about it?

#####
"Your Majesty, gentlemen, do you think I'm the kind of person who says nothing?" Wang Yang sat up straight with a serious expression on his face.

"I believe you, but I still feel that such information requires evidence." Emperor Zhao Xu took a deep breath. To be honest, his little heart is trembling now, and his palms are full of sweat.

The main reason is that the descriptions by Wang Yang are really amazing.It can even be said to be horribly exciting, but I am afraid that this buddy is fooling the broad masses of the people, and I am afraid that this is just a joke.

"Your Majesty, I'm looking for evidence, and I already have some evidence. After Wanyan Aguda surrendered to our Great Song Dynasty, I have learned about the land of Liaodong where the Nuzhi tribe lives in detail."

"After that, I have been very curious, so I sent a few confidantes to Liaodong..." Wang Yang cleared his throat and began to tell a story.

No, this is not a story, this is a real event. Since Wang Yang fought in the battle of Nayou Prefecture, Wanyan Aguda led the soldiers of the Wanyan clan to surrender to the Song Dynasty.

Through the exchange with Yu Wanyan Aguda, Wang Yang has already started to set his sights on the Northeast, and finally retreated in Beiliao and Xixia. After the Song Dynasty established the North Shaanxi Road, he had sent several confidantes to follow Several soldiers from the Wanyan clan quietly sneaked to the northeast.

Although Wang Yang is not a dog of science and engineering, he is still a passionate young man who loves the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, and he was also a representative of the geography class.

He is even more familiar with the minerals of the great rivers and mountains of the motherland. Whether it is copper in Yunnan, coal in Ordos, or various metal resources in Outer Mongolia, Wang Daguan is coveted and indignant.

Naturally, after he had a leisurely mind, he set his sights on Liaodong. The confidantes he sent there had a map given by Wang Yang, and only one thing was marked on it, that is, the iron mines in the Ma'anshan area.

Even with the precise positioning of the precise map that Wang Yang gave them, those people still went through untold hardships, and it took nearly two years to find the ore vein.

And Wang Yang received the news, that is, two or three days before the envoys of these female straight tribes arrived in Bianliang, Kaifeng.Those confidant guards who have worked hard for almost two years are still dangling on the boat at this moment, accompanying the iron ore mines they have tampered with on the sea.

However, Wang Yang has never wanted to disclose that information, but today, the official Wang is too complacent, and now, under the eyes of the emperor Zhao Xu and the two prime ministers, Wang Yang Xiaomengxin could only tremble to show his submission.

Wang Yang could only recruit them truthfully, and after hearing that this guy had quietly entered the village to work, the three bosses bulged their eyes. The emperor couldn't wait to ask Wang Yang to send someone to fetch it, and even asked The pony father-in-law went out of the palace to escort Wang Yang's guards, as if he was afraid that Wang Yang would let his guards fake it temporarily.

In the following time, everyone was not even interested in chatting, and even lost interest in chatting and chatting. Everyone's expression was very dignified, especially Su Dongpo, who was holding a cup of tea, as if he was holding something precious. Zhen Bao was generally silent.

Eunuch Xiao Ma left the imperial study room quickly, his head was in a mess at the moment, as if he was scared by the blue whale blown out by that old driver Wang Yang.
