C195 Burton and Peter the Great

The first round of confrontation made Xiao Wen even more fearful of the historical hegemon of the prairie.

However, he believed that through the benefits of capital, a monarch who could be called a master in the early feudal era could only be defeated.

Even though he was as strong as Louis XIV of the Sun, he was still able to win the war against the people of Paris.

"Speaking of which, I'm still very curious. Why does the prince have to do with Mongolia? If you're really a... Traditional Huns. Maybe I wouldn't ask. After all, this was very much in line with the Huns' way of doing things. But I know you are not a traditional Huns. You can discard some of the unreasonable things in the traditional Huns culture for the sake of profit. You are smarter than your stupid brethren. " Xiao Wen said.

"May I take this as your compliment?" He smiled lightly and sat on the main seat. He leaned back in his chair with a relaxed look on his face.

"I am merely stating an objective fact. If there is a war between the Hun and the big man, and I am the leader of the big man, the enemy I care about the most is you, Prince Roughton. As for your father being alone, that is nothing to fear. "

Because in history, he had killed his father and became a nobody after the coup. Therefore, Xiao Wen wasn't worried that he would be dissatisfied while he was in the black-headed man.

As expected, after hearing Xiao Wen's words, his smile intensified.

He could tell that Xiao Wen's words were not fawning on him, but a logical conclusion.

He was very satisfied with this evaluation.

He looked at Xiao Wen and said, "In that case, what do you plan to do?"

"Two words." Xiao Wen laughed as he raised his hand, extending two fingers. "Wool."

"Wool?" He narrowed his eyes as he heard the old man's words. He said: "Is Monsieur going to make the felt and make the Hun rich with it?"

In fact, although they were mature enough to replace cotton, hemp and other textile fibers, they had to wait until the first industrial revolution before they could be produced.

However, Xiao Wen also knew that things like woolen textiles had existed since ancient times.

Back in the Huns' time, the herdsmen cut the wool off the sheep and used it for weaving.

However, due to the poor quality of the fabric, it could not be used to make clothes.

So all they did was make wool into felt carpets.

However, Xiao Wen shook his head and said: "Maybe the Yang family hasn't made things clear to the prince. In fact, I wanted to make the wool into clothes. One had to know that cotton hemp could also be woven. But compared to the sheep that grew hair when they raised milk, farmers who wanted to weave cloth had to spend their fields growing cotton-wool. This, on the other hand, would clash with the growing of food. "

Although cotton hemp is not grown in conflict with grain, otherwise the Chinese would not have grown it for textile purposes for thousands of years.

But right now, Xiao Wen was only trying to trick Prince Fei Tun into joining his team, so he didn't try hard to explain the unfavorable factors.

Looking at the ruckus, Xiao Wen only talked about the advantages of his plan, but didn't mention a word about the real problem.

What a joke, the plan itself had no good intentions for the Huns. How could he bring up the plan?

However, he still had some doubts.

He said, "Make clothes out of wool? Don't lie to Mr Xiao. As far as I know, the texture of wool, not to mention silk, is very different even compared to hemp cotton. Something made of wool not only stank of sheep, but the people of the Bow might not be so particular about it, but the smell alone was too much for the Southerners. "What's more, the texture and texture of the woolen cloth …"

He didn't finish his sentence, but picked up a woolen blanket beside him and handed it to Xiao Wen for him to touch.

Xiao Wen politely received the felt, but his expression was calm.

He knew, of course, that in the absence of wool processing, these felt were indeed hard and coarse, and would be uncomfortable to wear.

However, Xiao Wen had a complete set of wool processing technology, so he didn't care about these things.

He asked, "Does the Prince have hot water here?"

"Is hot milk okay?" Ran suddenly said. After all, compared to water, milk was actually more ordinary in the Huns.

After all, the water had to be by the river to be brought back, and milk could only be obtained by being squeezed by cattle and sheep.

However, Xiao Wen shook his head and said, "I hope you can lend me a basin of hot water and some wool so that I can show you how to handle the wool."

Rao Dun nodded and said, "Alright then. "Then let's see what mister can do to deal with this kind of thing."

Then, he ordered his men to prepare these items.

Soon, a few slaves arrived at the dome with some wool and a basin of hot water.

They looked at him as if they were waiting for orders.

"You slaves should know how to wash clothes, right?" Xiao Wen asked.

"Naturally." "The Huns don't pay much attention to these things. But I've been on your turf for a long time. So if I can't bathe and wash my clothes, I'm going to be very troubled. "

After a pause, he added, "Actually, if possible, I would like you to introduce some craftsmen to my Huns. You will be rewarded if you take the risk. As for those craftsmen, as long as they have real ability, they can also get a woman, and they can get meat to eat every day. "

Xiao Wen nodded. In his heart, he thought that the shamelessness of this world truly was not without ambition.

Xiao Wen could even see the shadow of the Tsar Peter the Great in him.

In 1697, when he was still the prince of the empire, Peter the Great sent a diplomatic mission to Western Europe to study advanced technology.

He himself, Corporal Peter Mikhailov, accompanied the mission.

He studied shipbuilding and navigational techniques in Saldane, the Netherlands, Amsterdam and London, and hired a large number of scientific and technical personnel to work in Russia.

After returning home, he actively established factories, developed trade, culture, education and scientific research, reformed the military, established a regular army and navy, and strengthened the centralized power of feudal autocracy.

Then there was the war, the Baltic exits, to lay a solid foundation for the Russian empire.

It can be said that the political, economic, cultural, educational, scientific and technological development history of modern Russia all originated from the Peter the Great era.

If this development continued, he might be able to become the Peter the Great of the Huns.

"However, the greater his desire to develop the Huns, the more he will be unable to resist my plans for marketing them. If this guy was just like Headman, a savage and conservative idiot, I wouldn't be able to fool him like this! It was just a rash move! "I was wrong."

Seeing this, Xiao Wen revealed a meaningful smile.
