I'm about to become an immortal, do you want me to be a prince?

Chapter 290 Popularizing advanced physical postures!
It is Li Shimin's strategy to expand the four frontiers to defend the property of the Celestial Dynasty.

But on Li Mu's side, in addition to defending the heaven, the purpose of his active participation in foreign wars is to collect merit points, and there is another important reason.

That is, resources.

Territory is important, but what lies beneath it is even more important.

Li Mu's goal is to realize an industrial empire.

But realizing an industrial empire requires a lot of resources, the most important of which is oil!

Even later generations with an industrialized scale attach great importance to every inch of land.

After all, the ghost knows which piece of ground has dark oil under it, and which piece of sand has a pile of rare earth or light rare earth buried under it.

Therefore, Li Mu will not give up on the land in the Western Regions, the black oil is beckoning to him there, how could he turn a blind eye.

It's just that the road has to be walked step by step, and the meal has to be eaten bite by bite. If you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, take your time.

Each area is slowly managed, and there will always be a day when we can win resources.

Li Mu is not Li Shimin, he does not have the strength to hold a million troops.

Therefore, he can only slowly infiltrate this land by relying on the slightly advantageous economic method.

Bolu Kingdom is his first test site, and there will be many Bolu Kingdoms in his hands in the future.

Moreover, the wonderful place of the Western Regions is naturally suitable for the economy.

This kind of tribal country gathering place, which is not even considered a civilization, sometimes has strange things like the king leading the crowd to do business, which is not a big deal at all.

Merchants are everywhere here, and even religious people are involved in buying and selling.

When I ran into a great monk when I went out, he might be an extremely rich local tyrant.

Anyway, that's the way it is.

It just so happened that Li Mu had mastered the papermaking skills.

Xuan paper, it can not only be used as a commodity, but also as a cultural communication medium.

Whoever masters the source of communication is the one who talks.

One hundred sheets of rice paper, according to the current transaction price in the Western Regions, can be exchanged for a Persian horse, or that kind of fine-colored horse.

This horse, at Bolu's side, would take at least [-] hits to win.

However, only one hundred sheets of rice paper are needed now.

And this is only the price in the Western Regions. Li Mu has to transport the horses to Liangzhou, and the price can be turned up to fifty guan at least.

After Li Mu received the news, he almost rolled all over the floor in displeasure.

However, after all, he is also a big man with a wealth that rivals the country, and it is impossible to roll around on the floor.

If you want to roll, you have to roll in your own room in the dead of night.

However, this matter is far away in the Western Regions, and it is impossible for Li Mu to only pay attention to the affairs of the Western Regions and not do other things.

Recently, Jiangnan Academy officially opened, and Li Mu temporarily went to play a guest role as a teacher.

"Students, yesterday we have learned what are Newton's three laws, now please tell me what are Newton's three laws?"

Then a bear kid raised his hand.

"Sir, why is it called Newton's three laws?"

Li Mu said with a smile, "You tell sir what the three laws are first, and now I will tell you why they are called Newton's three laws."

Then the brat scratched his head and recalled, and then said.

"Newton's First Law: Any object remains in a state of uniform motion in a straight line or at rest until an external force forces it to change its state of motion.
Newton's second law: The magnitude of the acceleration of an object is proportional to the force, inversely proportional to the mass of the object, and proportional to the reciprocal of the mass of the object, and the direction of acceleration is the same as the direction of the force...

Newton's third law: The action and reaction forces between two interacting bodies are always equal in magnitude, opposite in direction, and act on the same straight line..."

"Well, good, good answer."

"Then sir, can you tell me why it's called Newton's Three Laws instead of Marton's or Sheepton's Three Laws?"

Li Mu smiled slightly, "This starts with an apple."

While Li Mu was telling stories while popularizing physical gestures, the bell rang for the end of get out of class before he knew it.

dang dang-

"Okay, that's the end of today's class. After lunch, everyone, remember to take a nap."

After finishing speaking, he packed his things and left the classroom.

The brats stood up and shouted neatly, "Goodbye, sir!"

Then I started to run to the cafeteria to eat with a happy face.

In ancient times, strictly speaking, there was no such thing as lunch.

Basically, there are only morning food and evening food, that is, breakfast and dinner.

Two meals a day, that's all.

Because in this era, land output is not enough to support three meals a day for the entire society.

Of course, this is only for ordinary people. Noble gentlemen can eat as much as they want, they are not within the scope of this restriction.

In the words of the old men, it is called "supplementary food", which symbolizes status and power.

Therefore, Li Mu organized a lunch, which was opposed by many people at first.

But he didn't pay attention, what the hell is eating your food?
Plus there's a nap.

It's even more weird.

In ancient times, sleeping during the day was a luxury.

Because they have to work during the day, sleeping is a sign of laziness in their eyes.

After all, in ancient life without nightlife, when the sun went down, it meant it was time to sleep.

Therefore, their sleep time is still quite long, and the daytime will appear to be very short.

For this, Li Mu didn't force it. Those who are willing to take a nap can take a nap, and those who don't want to don't force it.

"Is this what you teach?" Li Zekai asked this question.

"Ang, what's the problem?"

"No no no"

Li Zekai didn't dare to argue with Li Mu, anyway, it's none of his business, he's here to make money, not to meddle in other's affairs.

"By the way, have all the Japanese slaves you sent to Jiaozhou been arranged?"

"It has been arranged, and it will be sent to Jiaozhou tomorrow. I will handle the matter, so you can rest assured."

After hesitating for a while, Li Zekai wentssiped, "Mr. Jingyang, this Li Daoxing is weak and incompetent, why bother to support him like this?"

Li Mu smiled, "I don't need him to be strong and promising, as long as he sits in that position, and more importantly, he is obedient."

"Driving rivers, reeling silk, and growing grain. These are all political achievements, so it's so cheap, old man?" Li Zekai had an angry expression on his face.

Li Mu didn't take it seriously. After sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, he asked, "By the way, what is Mr. Cao up to lately?"

"That old man, he is studying your printing technique, saying that he wants to compile his lifelong learning into a book and then print it into a book."

"Oh? How about now?"

"What can I do, the old man is blind and is recognizing every word."

"Oh--"

Li Mu smiled inscrutablely after listening.

It seems that there seems to be a market for things like glasses!
