The value of the steamship itself was quite high. And the secret behind it. It's worth taking it to another level in itself. After all, this is related to a whole new world, and it is also very important to Su Li. He was very curious about what Li Er would give in exchange. To know. The other person should understand that pure money is completely indescribable. Moreover, Daxia is not short of money now. To be precise, it has long been filled with the inheritances of those nobles. As for other wealth, it is of no use to Daxia now. He believed Li Er also understood this.

Li Er looked stunned, with a somewhat troubled expression on his face. He naturally understands the importance of this secret, so what exactly will he give in exchange for it? After thinking for a moment, he suddenly spoke. "How about recognizing Bactria's complete sovereignty?" These words made Su Li squint his eyes, and he was obviously lost in thought. indeed. In name only. Daxia is still a vassal state of Datang. But in actual terms, Daxia is obviously higher than Tang Dynasty. However, if the Tang Dynasty recognized the complete sovereignty of the Xia Dynasty, it would mean that even if the Xia Dynasty would start a war with the Tang Dynasty in the future. It is also reasonable. Su Li didn't expect that Li Er would be willing to do this. After all, once this is done, Daxia and Datang will be two completely separated countries, at least in name. "OK." Su Li agreed concisely and concisely. In addition to the autonomy brought by the matter itself, he admired the determination shown by Ji Er even more. Such a person has the qualifications to join forces with him. "The target of steamships is not those European islands. "But to find a new continent."

As Su Li finished speaking. Li Er couldn't help but look shocked. New World? Where is the New World?! Apart from this world, are there any unexplored continents?! The existence of the New World exceeded his expectations. You must know that even in the maritime trade that is often carried out now, we have never heard of anything about the New World. Most of those countries come from islands. It is not so much a country as it is a tribal group. If only that was it. Obviously it is not worth building such a steamship! Su Li naturally noticed the shock of the other party, but she spoke in a calm tone. "That's the secret behind steamships." Li Er took a deep breath. While calming down, he stared at Su Li and said softly. "What kind of New World?" "How big is it?" Su Li shrugged. "If you add up the current Daxia and Tang Dynasty, it should be a little more than that of the New World." Hear this. Li Er was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously opened his mouth in disbelief. It is no joke to know that the combined area of ​​the current Tang Dynasty and Daxia is not a joke. It is completely enough to be called boundless! And the so-called New World can actually be compared with the two of them combined, even if it is a little less. It’s also shocking enough! Su Li is not wrong. After all, the entire American continent covers an area of ​​about 42 million square meters. The combined area of ​​Asia and Europe is only 54 million square kilometers, so you can imagine the size of the American continent.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough indigenous people. So the first time he heard the news, Su Li had already determined how to act next. After Li Er was briefly shocked. The first thing that came to mind was undoubtedly an astonishing thought. If you can make good use of this opportunity, you may be able to bring more things than you imagine! The first thing to know is that it is a whole new continent! There are countless resources contained on it. As long as we can find this new continent, it represents glory and wealth! This made Li Eryi's mouth dry for a while. He finally understood why Su Li wanted to build steamships. It's because only a giant steamship can easily find that new continent! The thought of this. He couldn't help but swallowed. How should I speak. How can I get the opportunity to explore the New World from Su Li? Noticing Li Er's look, Su Li was the first to speak. "Although I know the location of the New World." "But it's not that easy to find it." “The first attempt has now failed. Hear this. Li Er slowly calmed down... Indeed, it would definitely not be that simple to allow Su Li to use the steamship. It would be better to say that some situations would not occur. On the contrary, it is abnormal. After all, if the New World was very close, they might have discovered it long ago. To be honest, Li Shiteng was very curious. How did Su Li know that there was a new continent? Could it be that they got some description of the New World from those European nobles? But how did those Western barbarians know? Or is this the so-called person who is born knowing?

Li Er pondered for a moment. "How sure are you of finding that new world?" "Is there anything Datang can do to help?" If Datang can help. Maybe you can share the benefits when you find a new continent. This is the most important thing in his eyes. But Su Li just glanced at it. "Well... as far as I know there is more than one route to find the New World." "The help that Datang can provide is to help build steamships. I do not intend to directly occupy the New World." "So all actions need to be under my command." Said. Su Li looked specifically at Changsun Wuji and the others. These people are undoubtedly Li Er's confidants, but it is not certain whether they will reveal the information. But at this time, Li Er said firmly. "Everything about New World news will be blocked." "And even if those aristocratic families knew about it, they would not be able to respond at all. The Federation will personally supervise everything." The stakes in the New World were huge. Compared with such huge benefits. Even those aristocratic families are nothing. You must know that as long as there are enough benefits, Li Er can completely support several aristocratic families and replace the five surnames and Qi Wang. Changsun Wuji and several ministers were also sweating slightly on their faces. They didn't expect it at all. The things involved this time are so important. The emergence of the New World made everyone smell the huge benefits. Su Li smiled and clapped her hands. "very good." "Then this matter will be left to you, Li Er, to manage for the time being." "I will visit Chang'an City next to see the changes over the years."

"Hopefully I won't be disappointed."
