Become a feudal king from today

The sky is as blue as water.

In March, Yancheng has bid farewell to the cold winter and embraced spring.

The sunlight shining into the study is also warm.

After finalizing some details of the Zen throne hall with Zhu Tuo, Zhu Tuo left.

In the following month, Zhao Xu became even busier.

Not only must he cooperate with the Ministry of Rites, but he must also receive envoys from various countries who come to congratulate him and prepare to attend the Zen Ceremony.

Among them, the Koryo mission led by the King of Koryo arrived first, followed by the Ryukyu mission of Ryukyu King Sang Bin.

The kings of the Four Kingdoms of Japan, Hojo Kawakei, Ono Town, Oda Yamazawa, and Maori Yusheng also came with their respective missions.

The kings of the five southeastern countries and the king of Luzon arrived last.

These envoys, personally led by the kings of various countries, came from afar with heavy gifts, so he naturally wanted to see them.

Otherwise, it would appear that he is too arrogant. Even if they are vassal states, they must be treated with courtesy.

On this day, Zhao Xu met with King Bater of Luzon, who was the last to arrive. Zhao Xu said: "Envoys from all countries have arrived. I will take advantage of these two free days to accompany you for a walk in Yancheng to express my friendship as a landlord. You will have no regrets when you come here.”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Bart felt happy when he heard this.

This time he took Dasong's steamboat all the way north, landed at Jinghai, and then took a steam locomotive to Yancheng.

Along the way, he saw so many incredible sights that shocked him beyond measure.

To him, the Great Song was so mysterious.

If we say that before, he was afraid and worshiped the Western world because he lived under the slavery of the Western Turks.

So now, Dasong has completely destroyed the old understanding in his heart and replaced the position of the Western World.

Zhao Xu nodded.

After receiving the envoys from various countries, he left it to Dong An.

Even if they arrived early, these envoys could only wander around Yancheng and see some superficial things.

He deliberately waited for all the countries to arrive before giving them a deeper shock.

Of course, he didn't just want to show off in front of the kings of the countries.

The most direct reason is to eliminate the influence of the Western Turks on the Eastern Turks.

After all, in addition to Goryeo, Japan, Luzon, and the five southeastern countries have been deeply influenced by Western culture in decades and centuries.

Although they are currently kneeling to Dasong physically, they may still be kneeling to Xitu in their hearts.

Therefore, it is necessary to let them see the true strength of Da Song.

After letting Battle go back, Zhao Xu called Dong An and ordered him to inform the envoys of various countries.

The next day, kings from all over the world gathered in front of the palace.

Zhao Xu had breakfast and left the palace.

"See Your Highness."

When they arrived outside the door, all the kings saluted Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu motioned for everyone to refrain from courtesy and said with a smile, "I'm afraid you can't wait anymore, so please stop talking and just follow me."

Everyone laughed, and King Yan saw through their thoughts.

Now, they are too curious about Da Song.

Not to mention steamships and steam locomotives.

When they went to Yancheng, they saw smoke coming from the steam locomotive, steam tractors plowing in the fields, and steam forklifts digging ditches.

They wanted to know what these were and why they could be moved without human effort.

With strong curiosity, everyone followed Zhao Xu closely.

And behind them were their trusted ministers.

"The steam locomotive you ride on was produced here."

Starting from the palace, Zhao Xu led everyone to the steam engine workshop first.

At this moment, the machines in the steam engine workshop are roaring, and workers are busy making steam locomotive heads.

With the continuous expansion of railway mileage and cargo transportation problems brought about by the development of industry and commerce, the demand for steam locomotives in Dasong is becoming increasingly strong.

Even though steam engine workshops were established throughout Qizhou and Ningzhou, each workshop had too many orders to complete.

"..." The kings did not respond to Zhao Xu's words because they were already stupid.

With their knowledge, they cannot understand the manufacturing process of steam locomotives. This is really just for outsiders to watch.

But one thing they were sure of.

It was so difficult for them to make flintlocks, but it was simply terrifying that Dasong could make such a complicated thing and still make it in batches.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he did not look down upon them, but simply explained the principle to them.

Whether they can understand it or not is another matter.

All he wanted was to shock them.

After coming out of the steam locomotive workshop, Zhao Xu led everyone to the agricultural machinery workshop.

Here the kings met steam tractors and steam excavators.

In order to let them experience it, Zhao Xu also let the kings sit on it and drove it around himself.

"The efficiency of this steam tractor in plowing is worth thirty cows, and the efficiency of this steam excavator is worth as much as a hundred people." Zhao Xu introduced to everyone.

"It's amazing." King Park Jung-suk of Goryeo murmured, unable to take his eyes away from the two machines.

Hojo Kawakei and others also nodded repeatedly and praised him.

But more than anything, they wanted to take all these things back.

"Your Highness, what is this?" At this time, King Ruan Xiong of Cochin pointed to a machine in the middle of the workshop.

"This is a self-propelled steam harvester that can harvest both wheat and rice. It only takes two quarters of an hour for this harvester to harvest an acre of land." Zhao Xu said calmly.

After the establishment of the internal research and development institutes of each workshop, the workshop no longer waited for Wang Chong's rice to be cooked, but began its own research on various machinery.

After the steam tractor and steam excavator, the harvester was also born.

Although the steam industry was about to be phased out after the birth of the electric industry.

But the workshop at least mastered the manufacturing principles of these machines in advance.

When the internal combustion engine was born, they only needed to slightly change the power design to create agricultural machinery driven by the internal combustion engine.

"Incredible, incredible." The kings sighed.

They really couldn't find the words to describe their inner shock.

After coming out of the agricultural machinery workshop, Zhao Xu led everyone to the glass workshop and soap workshop.

At present, these goods are selling well in various countries in the East and Turkey.

The kings had seen the actual object, but not the production process, and they were filled with sighs when they saw it with their own eyes.

These expensive objects are created like water in the workshop, and these are all money.

After that, the kings followed Zhao Xu to the chemical workshop area and saw the production of chemicals.

The day passed like this.

Returning to their respective residences at night, the kings were silent while eating, their minds filled with the scenes they saw during the day.

At this moment, the image of the Western Turks gradually collapsed in their hearts, and the image of Da Song became majestic, becoming an existence they could only look up to.

But this is only the first day.

The next day, Zhao Xu took them to another place.

If we talk about yesterday, all they felt was shock and admiration.

So today, what they feel is fear, and even in the rest of their lives, as long as they recall this day, they will not dare to feel any arrogance.
