The influx of various advanced equipment broadened the horizons of the Xia people, who only had backward equipment.
As soon as the first batch of equipment was obtained, Xia Guo did not put it into production, but instead invested in research, researching the equipment...
For a time, people from the Xiake Institute and the Academy of Military Science were extremely busy!
It was not until they saw these devices that they truly realized the gap and saw Gu Nanzhi's long-term vision!
If there is no direct injection of these devices, with the productivity of their country Xia, they may not be able to produce such advanced equipment even if they are given another ten or twenty years!
If all their time is spent on catching up, then surpassing will be a long process for them!
The influx of a nearly complete industrial chain has directly injected fresh blood into Xia State, which is about to open its doors. The leaders of Xia State have inspected the equipment acceptance several times, and they were shocked, with light in their eyes!
However, some people have expressed different opinions at this time...
"Leader, as soon as we got these devices, we immediately conducted research and adaptive improvement and replication, but... why did we replicate so many production equipment?"
A young man said worriedly: "The teachers said that the essence of trade lies in transactions. Even if we have a large amount of production equipment and can produce a large number of products, we have no market for them!"
Internal digestion, this is the productivity of their Xia country!
It is impossible for the backward and poor people's livelihood to undergo a qualitative change in a short period of time, so...
If they have an industrial system and produce products, they must sell them to the outside world. The trading rules in the outside world are also set by the Western world!
Since the Western world is qualified to formulate trading rules, it is also qualified to change trading rules!
By then, they only need to make a few moves to strangle them and make it impossible for them to sell the products they produce!
Given the current national conditions of their country Xia, it would be a huge loss for them if the products produced with so much manpower and material resources could not be sold!
They simply can't afford the loss!
"You're right. Without a market, the production equipment we got will become useless!"
The leader chuckled upon hearing this and said, "But you have overlooked the essence of trade. The essence of trade is trading, and the original mode of trading is barter!"
"Western countries monopolize most of the international trading market today. However, no matter how powerful they are, there are always places where their tentacles cannot reach!"
“Those poor and backward countries don’t necessarily have nothing. It’s just that what they have has not been discovered yet!”
"As long as we have the production technology, we can produce what they need. Then, we can just sell our products to places that Western countries can't reach, and we can always get useful things in return!"
"Maybe, some things may not be useful now, but who knows, in the future, those things may not become our ladder to heaven?"
The young apprentice nephew's trip to the rainforest opened the door to a new world for them.
At first, they were limited by their national strength and could only selectively ignore many places and many things. However, when that day really came, those things became the key to strangling their throats...
This feeling is very subtle!
It even requires their little nephew to risk his life!
The leader doesn’t want to experience this feeling again, nor does he want people after him to be troubled by it, so…
For some things, it is always better to be prepared!
There is an old saying in the Xia Kingdom, "Worry about the world before you worry about yourself!"
As leaders, they stand at the highest position, overlooking everything on this land. They must protect their country and their people, for the long-term benefit of the country and the continuation of the race...
What the junior apprentice did gave them enough inspiration, and at least helped them find the direction!
Know which directions they can work hard on and strive for!
To be able to become a leader, one must have a broad mind and vision!
Therefore, with just a little guidance from Gu Nanzhi, they were able to discover the key and know exactly what they should do!
They had actually anticipated the compromises made by Western countries at the negotiation table, as well as the tricks they might use afterwards, and had already thought of ways to deal with them!
All things are difficult at the beginning!
However, the first step that Xia State took to open its doors was to already have an almost complete industrial system. For them, this was like having a ladder to heaven and it was already a shortcut!
They are confident that they can handle the following matters well!
There will never be any leaks!
For a nearly complete industrial system, the transportation of equipment alone would take a considerable amount of time. In this matter, the Western countries did not go back on their word, because they were still waiting for Xia Country to become too powerful and drag themselves into it!
Because of this, Xiaguo had enough time to learn Western technology and replicate Western equipment...
While everything in the outside world was proceeding in an orderly manner, Gu Nanzhi and his group finally made all preparations and, under the leadership of Hu Luqi, advanced towards Qibu Lake...
Qibu Lake is located behind the Tata tribe’s headquarters.
According to Hu Luqi's description, Gu Nanzhi roughly marked it on the map, and the result she got surprised her...
"Near the continental fault zone!"
Qibu Lake is located near the continental rift.
In the previous life, when Xia’s research had reached the interstellar stage and the raw materials of Qibu Lake were needed, it was already during Gu Nanzhi’s time. At that time, Qibu Lake deep in the rainforest had already been mined by Western countries. Even the existence of Qibu Lake had become a legend...
Now, Gu Nanzhi has returned to the time when Qibu Lake was not developed. This place, which was once submerged in the long river of history, has once again appeared before her eyes!
However, the location of the continental fault zone is a bit subtle!
Any slight negligence in mining will cause a chain reaction, causing the entire lake to collapse and all the people near Qibu Lake to perish!
perhaps……
Is this also the reason why Qibu Lake has become a legend in her original world?
Western countries will stop at nothing to achieve their goals. Their exploitation is simple and crude, and they do not take other things into consideration. The brutal exploitation has caused the fall of the continent's edge and Qibu Lake has become a legend. That is only too normal!
With this in mind, Gu Nanzhi and his group advanced in an orderly manner towards Qibu Lake. The leader was not Huluqi, but a group of wild beasts driven by Huluqi...
"Because Qibu Lake is too dangerous, even our people won't go near there!"
As Hu Luqi walked, he explained to Gu Nanzhi and the others, "In order to bury our people in Qibu Lake, our tribe has raised wild beasts for generations. After these beasts are domesticated, they can find Qibu Lake and bury our deceased people in the lake..."
