Jinyi Night Walk

"Mr. Xia!"

Harry greeted Xia Xun, then glanced at the two beauties standing next to Xia Xun, and nodded to them with a smile.

"Hello everyone!"

After Harry greeted Xia Xun, he then greeted the surrounding sandbank merchants. Tuoba Mingde deliberately asked: "I just saw that your Excellency seemed to be accompanied by General Suo Yaerha. Excuse me?"

Harry smiled and said, "Oh, I'm Suo Ya'erha's distant cousin. My name is Harry. I'm a businessman. I really want to meet people from the East, and through cooperation with you, I can expand my business to the East!"

Because there are mostly Han people here, he will pause every sentence, and his translator will speak to everyone in Chinese again.The guests heard that he was Suo Ya'erha's cousin, but they didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly saluted him, but because of this stranger, it was difficult for everyone to continue the topic, so they came to a standstill for a while.On the other side, the city's dignitaries surrounded Suo Ya'erha, complimenting and flattering him non-stop, but loud laughter kept coming out.

Harry blinked and smiled at Xia Xun: "Mr. Xia, what topic are you talking about, can I join in? I really want to know more about things in the East, I am very interested in it."

"Are we..."

Xia Xun was also a little hesitant after hearing this. Everyone was discussing when the Timur army would launch an attack on Daming, how long this war would last, who would win and who would lose, how much damage it would cause here, and how to seek good fortune. Avoid evil, how to say these words to him?Regardless of whether he is the emperor's grandson Harry or the merchant Harry, these words are not easy to talk about in front of a pure Timur Empire person.

Seeing Xia Xun's hesitation, Tuoba Mingde took the initiative to take up the topic and said, "Mr. Harry, to be honest, we were just talking about the war between your country and Daming."

"Oh?"

Harry looked interested, his lips parted slightly, showing a mouthful of white teeth, and said, "Are you speculating on who will win and who will lose in this war?"

Even if the businessman next to him pretended to be different and didn't pay attention to the conversation, he approached unconsciously when he heard this, and listened carefully.

Tuoba Mingde said: "No, Mr. Harry, we are just businessmen from the Western Regions. We are not worried about the victory of Ming Dynasty or your country. Frankly speaking, what we are most worried about is what the war will bring us? "

His words resonated with the people around him, and some businessmen responded one after another. They hoped to get some useful news from the cousin of the chief official of the Tiemuer Empire.

Ying Zhan knew Xia Xun's true identity. Hearing Tuoba Mingde's statement that they were just businessmen, pure businessmen, and didn't have much sense of belonging to Daming, he couldn't help but glance at Xia Xun with some concern.

As the Duke of Ming Dynasty and one of the commanders-in-chief on the western front of Ming Dynasty, Ying Zhan was worried that the true state of mind of these businessmen would anger Xia Xun. Will be on tenterhooks.

But when he saw Xia Xun, he let go of his worries. Xia Xun gently shook his head with the wine in the glass, tilted his head slightly, and was staring at Harry with great interest, acting just like any other businessman. more focused.

Beside him, Sirin and Jeanne had already started talking enthusiastically with Harry's black beauty, Omi. Of course, there were also interpreters around them, but this did not affect their communication, as they looked very familiar with each other.

Ying Zhan's heart moved, and he quickly gave his wife Miao Yi a look.Although Miaoyi still has a little psychological shadow on Xia Xun, who looks so cool like Yang Xu, and is somewhat resistant to contact with him and the people around him, but she is from a merchant family after all, and she is completely clear about her husband's gestures, so she nodded imperceptibly , and walked over.

After a short self-introduction, she also quickly integrated into the social circle of these women, and Ying Zhan took a sip of wine in satisfaction.It can be seen that this Harry dotes on that black beauty very much, and whether it is business or politics, the wife's route is sometimes a shortcut.If you need to use this Harry, build a good relationship with his wife, and you will be one step ahead of others.

Big people, it's just that their power and status are higher than ordinary people, and they are better at concealing themselves in front of the public.There is no need to imagine them as hardly human beings, or believe in the flattery and embellishments written by literati. Their emotions and emotions are the same as those of ordinary people, and they are even stronger. Dealing with them from selfish desires is the same as dealing with ordinary people The same, it is a trick that will never fail.

When his attention returned to Harry, Harry was laughing loudly: "I don't think you need to worry about that at all!"

Harry said enthusiastically: "Many people think that our Emperor Timur is the same as Genghis Khan back then. Wherever he passed, blood flowed into the sea. They would think that our army, like Genghis Khan's army, only knows how to destroy but not build. It’s like locusts crossing the border, it’s barren. No, it’s not like that at all, it’s all rumors and rumors spread by the losers.”

Harry's expression became serious, and he said: "If you have been to Samarkand, you will find that there are the most brilliant artists, craftsmen and literati in the world. Our king values ​​all wealth created by human beings, not just material ones. , poets, painters, craftsmen, doctors, all those who have profound attainments in his field will be treated as honored guests in Samarkand.

Genghis Khan is undoubtedly a great monarch, but his wars are mainly for the expansion of territory and the plunder of wealth, but our Timur Empire is not like this, if you can understand a little bit about our Timur the Great, you You will find that although our Khan is invincible and has become the king of the world, the territory he personally rules is not wide.Our khan defeated many, many countries, but he didn't take them into his territory and make the people there into his subjects, he just..."

Harry hesitated for a moment before coming up with a more euphemistic diplomatic remark: "You know, there are always monarchs in some countries in this world who are weak and cruel, believe in heresy, are hostile to us, or try to conquer us whenever they have the opportunity. We, and our khan, simply defeated them and made king whoever was kind to us in the royal family of the country, thus creating a brotherly friendship between the two countries."

Xia Xun took a sip of his wine and "deeply agreed" with Harry's words. Judging from the information he collected, Harry did not lie, but just changed the facts into a more euphemistic statement.Although the number of countries conquered by the lame Timur is no less than that of Genghis Khan, he does not include all these countries in his territory like Genghis Khan.

The territory he personally ruled has always been concentrated in Central Asia. Although his army was invincible in West Asia, South Asia, and Eastern Europe, he used the same method in all the countries he defeated: supporting puppets.

He chooses an agent from the royal family, and indirectly controls the country's politics, economy, military and religion through the agent.

This method undoubtedly requires the least amount of effort, but it can achieve the greatest effect. As long as his country remains strong, he can always control those countries. What if we come down?Isn't it like Genghis Khan's great empire, which disappeared in an instant?

And this kind of method is not complete destruction and plunder, and its method of wealth concentration is relatively mild. It uses its political influence and economic influence to promote the natural flow of local wealth to it. The vested interests of the local dignitaries and rich people are much less affected, and the resistance and resistance they receive are naturally minimal.

The merchants listened to Harry's explanation, and although they were a little dubious about his words because of his unofficial status, their attitudes were obviously much more relaxed: "From this point of view, it doesn't seem so terrible to take refuge in the Timur Empire!"

When a freshly baked cream cake one person tall was pushed into the ballroom, the reception entered.

Since the Middle Ages, it has been popular for Europeans to eat cakes on their birthdays. They believe that a person’s birthday is the day when the soul is weakest and most likely to be invaded by demons. Therefore, on the day of the birthday, it is necessary to invite relatives and friends to gather around Blessings are given and cakes are made to ward off evil spirits with the good fortune it brings.

Today's birthday star, Argus, walked forward beamingly, cut off a piece, and handed it to Suo Ya'erha.Immediately, the entire big cake was divided up, and all the distinguished guests had a share.

Xia Xun put it down after taking a bite. Seeing that Xilin and Rangna were eating with gusto, she couldn't help but asked with a smile, "Is it delicious?"

The cake making skills at that time were of course far inferior to those of later generations. The cake body was not soft enough, and the wheat sugar and bee sugar on it were too sweet. However, it seems that women are born with a sweet tooth. Sirin and Jeanna, who tasted the cake for the first time, ate it very well. Seeing that it looked delicious, Xia Xun handed over his plate of cakes, and said, "It seems that tomorrow we should go and buy another cook who can cook Western-style meals. When we get back, we can call our family Have a taste of this exotic flavor!"

At this time, Yu Jian came back with dull eyes and dangling legs, but the beautiful white woman beside him was radiant and full of energy.

In fact, Yu Jian wanted to fight for three silver coins for one night, but although the ideal is beautiful, the reality is too cruel. He has been to many brothels, but he has never seen such a coquettish woman. It's all over the place.In the end, it turned out that the beauty had sex and served him again for free, and then she let him go contentedly.

Yu Jian's legs were weak, and he moved along with the music, as if he was stepping on a dance step. He thought bitterly: "Damn, this woman is too slutty! Is it for me to take advantage of her or does she take advantage of me?" ? No, I'll have to get another one."

Thinking in his heart, Yu Jian glanced wildly, and suddenly saw Miao Yi, who was chatting and laughing with Omi, Xilin and the others. She is tall and big, Miao Yi's figure is much smaller and more exquisite, Yu Jian's eyes can't help but brighten up: "This kind of woman is easy to conquer!"

For a moment, he didn't notice that Miao Yi's dress was different from that of You Ge's wine girl who was waiting for single men to get lucky at the reception, so he sneaked up on her in a daze!
