Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 480 Tribute
After thanking him, Pu Jingtai bowed again and said: "Your Majesty, to show your sincerity, my king asked me to report on my behalf. The Kingdom of Korea pays tribute to Daegan every year 800 million taels of silver, [-] pearls and three boxes of treasures. The poor and remote areas of Korea produce very little. I hope your Majesty will not dislike it!"

After hearing this, Emperor Qianwu smiled even more.

It was just talk, and it was over as soon as I saw it.

Now it’s a real benefit.

Although 800 million taels is nothing to today's Daqian, for the small country of Goryeo, it is considered to be full of sincerity.

Although this amount of money is not a big deal for Goryeo, it is still quite stressful.

But they had to come up with it.

You know, when the Japanese invaders invaded, they defeated Goryeo, and they were almost on the verge of annihilation.

If Li Changfeng hadn't led his army to destroy the Japanese pirates at the critical moment, and the Koryo army had to retreat without any backup, the Koryo Kingdom would have been destroyed.

The Japanese pirates who almost wiped out them were all easily wiped out by Da Gan. To wipe out them, Goryeo, was simply a matter of digging into their pockets.

Compared with destroying the country, compared with losing status, what is this little money to the Goryeo royal family and powerful people?
Emperor Qianwu smiled and said: "The King of Goryeo is interested."

Pu Jingtai bowed and said: "This is what a minister should do..."

Having said this, Park Kyung-tae paused for a moment, and after thinking about his words, he said, "Your Majesty, since Goryeo has become a vassal, can I be protected by Da Gan?"

They said they were seeking refuge, but actually they were afraid that the Daqian would destroy Goryeo.

Park Kyung-tae couldn't say it directly, so he expressed it tactfully.

If Daqian promised to protect Goryeo, how could he invade?

This is the most important purpose of his mission to Daqian.

Emperor Qianwu naturally heard the meaning.

He had already considered this matter in his mind. The tiny land was barren and he had no intention of occupying it.

If Goryeo offered to declare itself a vassal and pay tribute but refused, and then launched a war, it would also make other countries fearful, and they might unite against Daegan.

Although Da Gan is not afraid, it is also troublesome.

Therefore, Emperor Qianwu smiled and said: "Since Goryeo has become a vassal, I, Dagan, will protect and protect them from worries. You can rest assured."

Pu Jingtai was overjoyed and quickly bowed to the ground.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The next step is to offer treasures.

Emperor Qianwu took a quick look and found that although the quantity was average, they were all high-quality products. He thought they were carefully thought out.

Afterwards, Emperor Qianwu hosted a banquet to entertain him.

At the banquet, Pu Jingtai asked: "Your Majesty, why don't you see His Highness the Ninth Prince?"

In his opinion, it was a big event for Daqian to have envoys from a country come to pay tribute. Li Changfeng, who had such a respected status, should participate, and he should be the main figure.

Mentioning this matter, Emperor Qianwu also had a headache.

Li Changfeng never liked such occasions, and there was nothing he could do about it.

However, on the surface, he looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Changfeng has been busy with the road network recently and has no time to participate in such trivial matters."

Such little things...

Park Kyung Tai sighed secretly.

It was a trivial matter for the majestic Goryeo Kingdom to declare itself a vassal and pay tribute.

He didn't dare to say anything more, but what Emperor Qianwu said about the Daqian Highway Network aroused his curiosity.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, what is the Daqian Highway Network?"

Emperor Qianwu smiled lightly and said: "The Daqian highway network is to build roads covering all prefectures, towns and rural areas in Daqian. This road uses asphalt and concrete as the roadbed. It will be used to promote business and trade to facilitate military and civilians after the popularity of cars in the future. "

Park Jingtai's eyes suddenly widened.

"My God!"

A storm surged in his heart.The territory of Daqian is so vast, almost the size of a hundred Goryeo, and there are countless villages and towns. What a huge project it is to connect them with roads paved with asphalt and concrete shoulders.
For such a large project, the manpower, material and financial resources required to be invested are simply unimaginable.

Park Jingtai was shocked by this great plan.

He immediately thought that it must be Li Changfeng who proposed this plan.

Only Li Changfeng would have such courage.

In order to verify what he was thinking, he asked: "Dear Emperor Daqian, who came up with this great idea?"

Emperor Qianwu smiled slightly and said proudly: "My prince, Li Changfeng."

"really……"

Park Jingtai was in a daze, and Li Changfeng's image in his mind became even taller.

Early the next morning, notices of the Kingdom of Koryo declaring themselves as subjects and paying tribute were posted everywhere in the capital, and the contents of the letter of credence written by the King of Koryo himself were also copied and displayed.

Soon, it caused a sensation in the capital.

People rushed to tell each other and discussed the matter in the streets and after dinner.

"Good news! Good news! Goryeo has surrendered to me and paid tribute!"

"I read the credentials. The King of Korea can be described as humble!"

"I, Dagan, are so powerful now that I have even made small foreign countries take the initiative to declare themselves as vassals and pay tribute!"

"This is all thanks to His Highness the Ninth Prince. Without him, there would be no Da Gan today!"

"I am so lucky to have His Highness the Ninth Prince!"

"..."

Everyone is extremely proud and proud.

In line with the principle of reciprocity, Emperor Qianwu sent a car to Park Jingtai and asked him to take it back to the King of Korea as a return gift.

Park Kyung-tae is very grateful.

After several days of study, he finally learned how to drive and was completely conquered by the car.

"His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince of Daqian is really a person to look up to. I don't know how he came up with such a magical thing. Compared with him, those so-called geniuses are nothing!"

Park Jingtai was filled with emotion and wanted to own one of his own.

Then he went to the shop where Li Changfeng sold cars, and was very lucky to win the number and buy one.

After staying in the capital for a few more days and buying many things that were not available in Korea and a large amount of gasoline, Park Kyung-tai left Daegan with his entourage.

As soon as he left, the new barbarian king Hardang Muren came to the capital of Dagan with gifts and a thousand personal guards.

Seeing Daqian New City from a distance, Hadang Muren got out of the carriage and was stunned.

In the past, he had only heard people talk about how great Daqian Capital was, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, the visual impact on him was far more shocking than what people had described.

I saw reinforced concrete buildings rising from the ground. The streets were densely packed with people and very prosperous. In the distance, there were a large number of construction sites under construction in full swing.

Judging from the scale, this new city alone is much larger than the new king of the barbarians.

"My God, what kind of magical country is this?"

The Barbarian King couldn't help but sigh, and several ministers who came with him were also amazed.

"This is my first time seeing such a big city!"

"I heard that His Highness the Ninth Prince Daqian proposed the construction!"

"That's right, it's His Highness the Ninth Prince. Daqian's ability to dominate the world depends entirely on him!"

"Without the Ninth Prince, there would be no Daqian today!"

"Why don't we, the barbarians, have such a peerless evildoer!"
