Destiny Only Han

Chapter 794 Liu Ying: I, Liu, have nothing to do with gambling and drugs!

In October, autumn is high and crisp, and Feng Chan is over.

Night fell, but the palace where Liu Ying lived in the Taishan Palace was brightly lit, as bright as day.

Liu Yingfu was writing and drawing on the book case, stopping to think for a moment from time to time, and then turned into a ruthless stamping machine, crackling and stamping big seals on the memorials submitted to him for imperial reading...

The memorial he is currently reviewing was sent by the Dianke Mansion, a proposal about trade with the Sunga Dynasty.

Well, it is said to be a proposal, but it is actually a content that has been agreed a long time ago.

The main thing is to use the greed of the feudal rulers to transform a large country with a population of tens of millions into a place for dumping products and producing raw materials for the Han Empire.

This is actually a win-win situation.

For the kind of feudal rulers who regard the people as their slaves, developing industries, even if they develop industries themselves, is not as profitable as compradors.

After all, there is no cost to be a comprador.

The more imports, the more tariffs, the richer you are.

As for the people and industries in the country, these are not important to the ruler.

To be precise, the more withered the domestic industry is, the happier they are.

Best, all the industrial and handicraft products needed in the country are imported from abroad, so that their income will rise steadily!
Therefore, even if the conditions proposed by Liu Ying are very harsh, such as permanently leasing nine ports such as the mouth of the Ganges, Han merchants have extrajudicial immunity, and the annual export volume must be proportional to the import volume, that is, they want to import more If more tariffs are charged on Han products, a corresponding proportion of primary products must be exported to Han.

However, the missions of the Sunga Dynasty almost accepted all the treaties except for the disputes over the taxation and proportion of import and export commodities!

After all, the products that are the key needs of the Han Dynasty are actually everywhere for Ah San.

Such as cotton, such as rice, such as iron ore and coal.

Well, the iron ore and coal reserves on the Sunga side are large and of high quality.

In particular, the reserves of chromite, which is used to produce tools such as spring steel, stainless steel, and ball bearings, rank third in the world!

So Liu Ying felt that when the agreement with Ah San was officially signed and the cargo ship returned with a full load, it would be time for many domestic coal mines and iron mines to close.

Mining in China pollutes the environment, especially the damage to water resources and mountain structures, and miners work hard and do not make much money.

As for the unemployed miners, they can go to the factory to work, whether the salary rises or not is another matter, at least it is much safer than going down to mine.

After all, the miners who work underground are buried, but they are not dead yet...

So at this moment, Liu Ying felt a little rejoiced.

Fortunately, he pointed out the necessary technologies for efficient mining such as steam engines early on, which made mining a business with heavy capital investment, which in turn made the number of small coal mines and small iron mines in China completely within an acceptable range.

Therefore, after the arrival of cheap overseas coal and iron ore, the resistance to the industrial transformation led by him will not be too great.

However, as the saying goes, all eggs should not be put in the same basket, so Ah San should not be the only supplier to plan ahead.

For example, there can also be Guli people in Australia.

However, the Guli people lived on an isolated island and were isolated from humans in other places for tens of thousands of years. Therefore, even in the 89th century, the total population did not exceed one million.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to expect them to mine and then sell it to the Han people cheaply.

Therefore, it is better to plunder the land. Anyway, there are quite a lot of open-pit mines over there, and it happens to be mechanized mining.

The most important thing is that today's international order has not yet been formed. The annexation of small countries by big countries, and the extermination of weak nations by powerful nations are all normal behaviors like drinking water and eating.

Liu Ying nodded secretly, and recalled the Kanyu Wanguo map he had signed in...

Well, it is actually a high-definition version of the world map but the coastline and river direction are not fidelity.

But this is not important, the important thing is that the veins and reserves of various places are marked in detail on it, which gave him the ability to take a large piece of land that seemed barren at the time at a very low cost, and then follow the map to find the mine. possible.

So after he returned to Chang'an, he planned to set up several large construction engineering groups, not only to go to Asan to build ports and roads to mines, but more importantly, to go south to Oceania to help the local aborigines develop what they didn't need at all. Coal and iron resources on the Internet...

Only before that, it is necessary to strengthen investment and control over the Southeast Asian island countries.

After all, Australia's terrain and population are mostly distributed in the corners of the island. When the early water conservancy and farmland construction failed, it was necessary for Han to continuously allocate food and other daily necessities there.

It seems that they have to rush to work on the PPT overnight again... Liu Ying smiled silently, and was going to stay up all night.

But at this moment, the door creaked, and Xu Ling slowly squeezed in holding a lantern and carrying a food box.

"Your Majesty, the midnight snack is here..."

Liu Ying turned her head and looked at the young woman in a white dress with bright eyes, bright teeth and bright lips illuminated by the colored lights, she stretched out her arms around Xu Negative's slender waist, and let her sit on her lap.

"It smells so good..." Liu Ying made a pun.

"Your Majesty...don't be like this." Xu negative lowered his head, only feeling that a pair of big hands that were a little hot began to be dishonest.

She didn't resist Liu Ying's touch, but it was different from the script she envisioned.

In her imagination, she will play the role of a good wife and loving mother, bringing supper to Liu Ying, who is diligent in state affairs, and then red sleeves will add fragrance to study at night, and finally you and I will be turned into red waves...

But unexpectedly, before the script started, it went directly to the last link...

Although she is very satisfied with Liu Ying's performance at the moment, after all, as a wife, she always likes to see her man fascinated by her, like a pervert...

However, she is addicted to drama...

So Xu Negative began to resist, but her waist could not exert any strength at all. The only result of the struggle between her legs was that her body became more and more trapped in Liu Ying's legs.

"I said no, but my body is still very honest..." Liu Ying smiled charmingly, showing the demeanor of a domineering president.

Xu negative gritted his teeth secretly, and simply stopped pretending.

"Ouch? Are you serious?"

"Don't talk about my clothes, they are very expensive..."

"I am the emperor, above the tens of thousands of people in the sky, how dare you..."

........................

In front of the Taishan palace, chariots and horses rumbled, banners were unfurled, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers lined up in front, middle and rear armies, ready to follow Liu Ying back to the imperial capital.

It's just that in the solemnity and solemnity, Liu Ying, Zhang Buyi and others walked out shoulder to shoulder.

And behind them, there are Liu Bang Lu Wan and other older members of the Pei County Brotherhood who are also very imageless...

Lu Ze, who was standing next to Lu Zhi and whispered, sighed softly: "People say that the wealth of three generations is the most valuable, but now it seems that it is true..."

As a result, Liu Qi and Liu De, who were chasing after Liu Le to ask for candies, were out of luck...

Lu Zhi grabbed the two of them back one by one, and began to think about it...

Under Liu Le's piercing eyes, Lu Ze was stunned for a moment, and then he pretended to be a normal person and walked to other places with his hands behind his back.

As a reciprocal revenge, Liu Ying and Zhang Buyi are watching Lu Tai intensively.

Lu Tai limped left and right, trying to escape, but in the end he did not escape, so he clasped his hands together: "Several benefactors, don't deceive others too much... You must know that although my Buddha is merciful, he also has the kindness of King Ming." angry……"

"Look, let me say that he was limped..." Liu Ying put her arms around Lu Chan's neck and asked with a smile: "My uncle doesn't care?"

Lu Chan sneered: "Brother, how do you think my elder brother's legs are like this?"

"Don't be a benefactor or a benefactor, I think you are idle!" Liu Ying grabbed Lu Tai and said without rejection: "Mount Tai is within the territory of your Lu country, so it is up to you to build the road and the temple. I'll give it to you...Anyway, looking at it from this point of view, your country of Lu also has a lot of unemployed manpower."

"It's just about to be slack now, and organizing them to make money on the construction site can be regarded as your benefit to all living beings..."

Lu Tai thought for a while, nodded happily, and just approached Liu Ying and asked in a low voice: "Then...if there are extra materials that can't be used up, can I build a small temple on Mount Tai?"

"Of course not..." Liu Ying thought for a while, then changed her words and said, "If you want to repair it, you can repair it, but you are not allowed to use the materials I gave Dafu to build the temple! And I warn you, if there is any slight buckle or sloppy in the construction of the temple, Don't blame me for not thinking about brotherhood!"

Lu Tai clasped his hands together: "The poor monk thanked His Majesty..."

"You're a poor ass monk!" Liu Ying couldn't help kicking him: "The monks don't eat meat or drink alcohol, and they don't even approach women...you flowery monk!"

Hearing Liu Ying's words, Lu Tai was surprised: "Where did your majesty come from? How does the poor monk not know that there are such rules?"

Liu Ying squeezed her chin, raised her face halfway and said:

"I have a golden mouth, and the law follows what I say, so why seek the source?"

"Just right, now you are going to build a temple for the barbarians. The so-called no rules make a square, and the few rules I mentioned are the clear rules and precepts for you people!"

"From now on, you must keep in mind the dogma, and you must not take a step beyond the threshold!"

Lu Tai froze on the spot, struggled a lot in his heart, then cupped his hands and said: "Every sentence your majesty said is deafening, and after careful consideration, you speak of righteousness, and your majesty will tell those barbarians verbatim what your majesty said! "

"Minister? Those barbarians?" Liu Ying murmured softly, and then said with a smile: "If you didn't call yourself a poor monk before, how come you are now a minister again?"

Lu Tai said naturally: "My son said, food and sex are also sexual. It's okay not to eat meat or drink alcohol, but the only thing I can't do is not to be close to women... So, in order not to embarrass me, I am no longer a monk!"

I thought so too... Liu Ying waved her hand with a smile, turned around and left: "Uncle, you heard, these have nothing to do with me..."

Lu Tai turned his head slowly, and just about to speak, what he heard was a sentence full of majesty.

"Bring the golden mace!"

..............................

Chang'an City.

Snowflakes fell sporadically, and the cold wind swept in, but it did not reduce the desire of the people in Chang'an to go out at all.

At this moment, Chang'an City is empty of thousands of people, and countless people gather on both sides of Chidao in the south of the city, preparing to welcome the supreme emperor and return to Chang'an City, which is extremely loyal to him...

In the distance, when Jing Shiling led hundreds of horses galloping over, the people on both sides of the road instantly understood.

Their emperor is back!
As a result, the sound of Jinzheng's drum music was endless, and there were waves of elephants neighing, and the roar of lions and tigers came and went.

These are all the guards of honor for rushing to Luoyang overnight yesterday.

Gradually, with the sound of heavy footsteps, eighteen elephants with long tusks and red stalls came over.

At this moment, even the missions of the Sunga Dynasty, who were used to seeing elephants, couldn't help but exclaimed.

Big!
This is the first impression of people including Lian Ah San, including Han people who eat melons.

What appeared in front of them now was no longer the native Asian elephants of Han, but the African elephants brought back from Africa by the fleet.

Therefore, the most intuitive manifestation is that African elephants are more than a circle larger than Asian elephants!
Moreover, the tusks are longer and the temper is more irritable. If not for the bloody training before, I am afraid that the largest African elephants would have launched wars and trampled on them...

But the more this is the case, the more it shows the strength of the Han Empire!

Elephants passed by, drum chariots passed by, guards of honor passed by, Lang Qi passed by, and finally the convertible golden root car that Liu Ying specially selected.

To be precise, this is a military chariot. The shape of the carriage continues from the Western Zhou Dynasty, but it has changed from two wheels to four wheels...

Six big black horses with no trace of hair on their bodies came dragging the military chariot, rattling, hooves sounded like thunder, Liu Ying stood facing the wind with a battle flag in hand, looking forward, majestic.

In an instant, countless people fell to their knees.

"Long live Long live Long live……"

"Long live Long live Long live……"

"Long live Long live Long live……"

Amidst the roar of the mountains and the tsunami, Liu Ying moved her eyes and swallowed the shout that was about to blurt out. She just nodded coldly and waved her hand slightly.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty saw me..."

"Nonsense, it's obviously me..."

"Stop arguing, His Majesty is waving to his loyal subjects!"

"As expected of a high-achieving student of Dahan Public School, with this level, this year's Zuo Erguan exam will definitely be among the best!"

..............................

Thousands of miles away, the capital of the Seleucid Empire, Antioch (Antioch), was no less crowded than the city of Chang'an at the moment.

In addition to the absence of elephants and tigers and lions, there are huge crowds of people on both sides of the road. If it weren't for the soldiers in leather armor struggling to maintain order, there might be no road at all.

Today is the day when the envoys of the Han Dynasty paid a state visit to the Seleucid Empire.

The people here have long heard from the merchants who travel east and west that in the Far East, there is an incomparably huge empire with a strong national power and military strength, even the former Macedonian Empire is hard to match!
At first they didn't believe it.

After all, the current dominant Seleucid Empire is only a small part of the Macedonian Empire, and an empire stronger than the Macedonian Empire...

Sorry, they just can't figure it out.

Therefore, the incomparably powerful Han Empire in the legend is probably just a gimmick boasted by merchants, so that they can sell their products at sky-high prices, just like they said that the spices are guarded by griffins or giant dragons ...

But now, they believe it.

This is not simply a matter of the size of the warships of the Han people that the merchants in the south boasted about, but that the envoys of the Han State will come to visit them on state affairs, and their envoys don't even know where the Han State is!
So, perhaps in the Far East, there really is an extremely powerful country!

But many of them still only recognize Han Guoda, not Han Guoqiang.

Take a look, in the open space in the distance, they are full of fighters, the most powerful fighters in the world!
What are the Han people?
When the sun gradually climbed to the highest point, the exclamation in the distance gradually became closer.

The messenger of the Han people is here!

So the onlookers stood on tiptoe desperately, and the first thing they saw were hundreds of tall horses.

They thought their own horses were tall, but what they never expected was that the poor horses with their luggage were a head taller than their best horses!
The important thing is, judging from the speed and posture of the horses ridden by those warriors, these horses are all excellent war horses!
You know, the Seleucid Empire is most famous for its armored cavalry, which is what they are proud of!
Now, this kind of pride is torn down by the Han people, and they are allowed to trample on their horses!

And this is just the beginning. In the bursts of exclamation, the eyes of all the Seleucids gradually focused on the armor on the Han soldiers.

Thick, strong, and brilliant!

Some Seleucids complained sourly in their hearts. The armor of the Han people is good-looking, but it is not suitable for them, especially when they are fighting the Parthians.

Without him, the sun is too hot there.

But not everyone is so full of envy and hatred.

For example, the women of the Seleucid Empire.

When the flag of the knights of the Han army came flying, the women immediately let out bursts of sharp cheers.

After all, women have no borders, and their heads are only wrapped with a thin layer of colorful silk scarves to block the wind and sand.

But at this moment, this silk scarf has become a tool for them to attract Han knights.

What's more, some young girls, taking advantage of the inattention of the soldiers maintaining order, suddenly lowered their heads and got out of the crowd. They boldly ran to the side of the Han knight, and tied their own silk on the opponent's saddle. Towel, while saying his name out loud.

Love can't wait!

At this time, the benefits of being positive and uplifting at the overall level of society are reflected.

Those brave girls were not scolded by their clansmen, let alone stones rained down, but instead received bursts of applause and sincere blessings.

Well, except for their suitors...

But it was clear that what the daring girls were doing was futile.

It's not that they are not beautiful, nor is it that the knights of the Han Dynasty are not close to women, it's simply that they don't understand the language...

Looking at the colorful silk wrapped around his saddle at this moment, the knight of the Han Dynasty just said thank you in a hurry, with a low voice but a sincere tone.

After all, most of these elite cavalry came from Longxi and Beidi counties.

Among the nomadic tribes close to Han, it is now popular to send Hada, that is, colored silk to each other after meeting...

So they only hated that the silk brought by the mission was sold to the Parthians who traded in gold, otherwise they would have to dedicate the most exquisite khata to these passionate and beautiful girls!
..............................

Seleucid Palace.

Wu She, who was used to the chair, sat on the carpet very uncomfortable, staring blankly at the wine brought by the maid, and was even more amazed at the Seleucid folk customs.

After all, drinking at noon, especially now that it is a state interview...

But the so-called do as the Romans do, Wu She held the silver cup and swallowed it down.

Opposite him, Antiochus III drank the same gulp.

After all, the Mediterranean climate is more suitable for growing grapes than wheat. Drinking a lot of wine is not only to replenish water, but also to replenish calories...

Wine is grain essence, so is fruit wine.

So Antioch III waved his hand, and a slender girl with gray eyes stepped forward and poured wine for Wu She again.

still drink?I still have business to do...Wu She frowned, motioning for the interpreter he brought to come to him: "I am here, apart from the state visit, I also want to negotiate a deal with the king."

Antiochus III frowned and asked, "What deal?"

Wu She looked at the translation, and said slowly: "I heard that there is an exiled nobleman named Hannibal in your country. If the country does not hand over this person, it will immediately send troops to destroy the country?"

After listening to the translation, Antiochus III had a surprised expression on his face.

He took in Hannibal to help him fight against the Romans. Many dignitaries in their country didn't know about it, but the Han people thousands of miles away knew it clearly.

Perhaps, this is the strong man rumored by the merchants...

So he nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, Hannibal is indeed in our country, and Rome is also looking for him. It's true, but the matter of sending troops to destroy the country... Haha, let him come..."

Wu She really wants to say that you can't even beat the Parthians in the south, how could you dare to shout at the more powerful Romans, but he is an envoy after all, and he came here on behalf of peace and friendship, so naturally he will not do anything to intensify the conflict between the two countries .

So Wu She also had a smile on his face: "What your majesty said is true. I have traveled all the way and witnessed with my own eyes the vast territory of your country and the abundance of things and people... So one more person is not too many, and one person is missing is not much. Besides, this person is Rome. I'm afraid he won't be able to use his defeated general. So it's better for the humble minister to take him away..."

Well, he somewhat has the bottom line, let him close his eyes and boast that the opponent's army is strong, he can't do it...

But Antiochus III was very satisfied, being recognized by the Eastern Power was the happiest news he had heard during this period of time!

The important thing is that what Wu She said also has some truth.

After all, although Hannibal defeated Rome, he was soon defeated by Rome again, and he couldn't get back together!

Such a person might really bring bad luck to him!
For example, the Parthian and Bactrian wars he lost successively before may have something to do with his taking in Hannibal...

But no matter what, he wouldn't just give Hannibal to the other party!

Unless, the other party brings something out.

For example, the kind of iron armor that looks awesome!
