Chapter 278 Be Careful What You Say
During that period, the Iwami Ginzan was developed on a large scale due to improvements in smelting technology.
The period of greatest scale.
Silver outflows amount to one-third of the world's total, and most of that flows into China.
This clearly demonstrates just how enormous the reserves of those two gold and silver mountains in Japan are.
Besides those two, there were many others, more or less. In some areas of that tiny place, gold and silver were everywhere.
Unfortunately.
In ancient times, most people were unaware of this matter.
Otherwise, given the personalities of those emperors, how could a small country like Japan be compared to mountains of gold and silver?
as predicted.
When Han Bei uttered those words, Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin immediately became interested.
"What gold and silver mountains?"
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but ask, his face full of curiosity.
Even Li Shimin stared at Han Bei with a mixture of curiosity and doubt.
"Japan has two gold and silver mountains, one is called Iwami Silver Mine and the other is Sado Gold Mine. Their output accounted for one-third of the world's silver circulation during the Ming Dynasty."
"Besides these two, there are other mines of all sizes in Japan. In certain areas, it's practically gold and silver everywhere."
Han Bei chuckled softly.
He refused to believe that Li Shimin could remain unmoved after hearing these words.
Since ancient times, silver and gold have been the mediums of currency in circulation.
And coincidentally, Japan has both of these things, and most importantly...
Compared to the Tang Dynasty, Japan today is nothing.
A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.
Previously, Li Shimin was unaware that Japan possessed such valuable resources, which is why he thought that the small island nation was useless.
But now...
But that's different.
Look at Li Shimin, his eyes are practically bulging out, he looks like he can't wait to take down Japan.
Is this statement true?
Li Shimin looked at Han Bei with a serious expression.
If there really were mountains of gold and silver in Japan, then it would be a good thing for him and for the entire Tang Dynasty.
Even if he were to send troops to conquer Japan, with this reason as an excuse, no ministers in the court would object.
It's a win-win situation.
But the premise is that what Han Bei said is true and accurate.
"Would I lie to you? What good would it do me to lie to you?"
Han Bei smiled.
"If you hadn't come here, and instead of some other dynasty, then you wouldn't be the one who knows these things, Emperor Taizong."
Upon hearing Han Bei's words, Li Shimin suddenly smiled.
"Good lad, you've got guts. You are indeed different from those ministers; those people wouldn't dare say such things in front of me."
"We come from the future, so isn't it normal for our speaking habits and behaviors to be different?"
Han Bei smiled.
He paid no attention to what Li Shimin was saying.
For them, this is the truth.
"I will consider what you have said. If you can provide detailed shipbuilding blueprints, I can expedite the shipbuilding and naval construction process."
"In that case, it's a deal."
Upon hearing this, Han Bei knew that the matter had been settled.
"We will provide the shipbuilding blueprints, and Your Majesty, you will be responsible for annihilating the Japanese. I have only one request: leave no one alive."
"As for those mountains of gold and silver, they are all yours, Your Majesty. You may dispose of them as you wish."
That's all.
Han Bei extended his hand.
Li Shimin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.
He then extended his hand, and the two shook hands firmly. "Then it's a deal."

Cheng Yaojin, standing to the side, nearly popped his eyes out.
He never imagined that Han Bei would be so bold, especially since His Majesty actually intervened.
.........
Summer.
After Han Bei and his group returned, they immediately approached Weng Bingjun and brought up the matter.
"this......"
After hearing the whole story, Weng Bingjun hesitated, "Isn't this a bit inhumane?"
Although he quite agreed with this.
But if those with ulterior motives find out, they will inevitably use this as an excuse to make trouble.
"Humanitarianism?"
Upon hearing Weng Bingjun's words, Han Bei burst into laughter—a laugh born of anger.
"Commander Weng, you should know what the Japanese have done, right?"
"You're talking to me about humanitarianism at a time like this?"
"I know that too, and although I agree with your plan, it will be troublesome if the conservatives at the top find out."
"Is it troublesome to close the portal?"
Upon hearing this, Han Bei couldn't help but smile.
Throughout history, there have always been a few bad apples who, under the guise of peacekeeping, have bullied and humiliated people.
And then they still said they wanted peace.
The historical Qin Hui was someone who wanted to coexist peacefully with his adversaries and was always tolerant.
What happened to the Jin Dynasty? They became even more ruthless.
"Be careful what you say."
Upon seeing this, Weng Bingjun stood up abruptly and walked up to Han Bei.
"I know what you mean, but it's best to say as little as possible. No matter where you are, there will always be one or two petty people."
Weng Bingjun spoke with a serious expression.
These are things that cannot be said.
"Know."
Seeing this, Han Bei nodded.
He knew that Weng Bingjun was doing it for his own good, but he just couldn't swallow his anger.
That feeling was something he couldn't swallow ever since he learned about the massacre and the crimes Japan had committed against China.
This time.
It was precisely because that world was likely not in the same time and space as theirs that Han Bei made this choice.
They can't fight the neon lights on Earth.
The situation in Japan, in the world of Wu Tang, is quite different.
In ancient times, the one with the bigger fist was always right.
"You all go and rest first."
Weng Bingjun waved his hand, signaling the other party to leave.
After Han Bei and the others left, Weng Bingjun covered his face and sighed.
Han Bei has guts, which is a good thing for Da Xia.
So many years have passed, and even though Han Bei didn't personally experience those things, he still remembers them vividly.
This is what citizens of Great Xia should be like.
The fact that Han Bei could say these words is enough to prove that this young man cares about China.
But Han Bei said to close the portal.
If this were overheard by someone with ulterior motives and used against them, it would be a disaster for Han Bei.
Now, everything in the Great Xia Dynasty is thriving.
Various resource and mineral technologies flowed back from the three worlds.
This is no small matter.
Once the portal is closed, and if the higher-ups ask about it, it will definitely cause a stir again if it's because of this issue.
More serious and severe.
There might even be a consideration of detaining Han Bei, should it be implemented.
Even though Han Bei could leave through the portal.
But for the Great Xia, that would be a tremendous loss, as they would lose the teleportation portal.
This means that the interruption of resources and technology makes it almost impossible for Great Xia to rise again.
