This is a plan that Zhang Bai has thought of a long time ago.

The bonds he asked Guishan to issue are actually state bonds, also known as state bonds. It can be bought and sold, and interest can be charged, and because the issuer is the state, it is quite stable.

But Zhang Bai relied on no one to understand this thing, so he secretly sandwiched private goods inside. The state bond is supposed to have a term of interest, and the principal and interest must be cashed out within a certain period of time. However, Zhang Bai did not mention this period, but only handed the bond to Su Lin as a kind of credit certificate.

This bond becomes something with no expiration date, that is, the so-called indefinite bond, since it is indefinite, then the holder can actually not recover the principal with this bond, but can only collect interest, in fact, it becomes similar to the nature of stocks.

This is tantamount to treating the country as a company and dismantling it for listing. Whether it was Su Lin or Guishuang, they would only think that it was a simple loan, and they would not think that Zhang Bai was secretly entering the "board of directors" of this country.

How did Su Lin understand such a profound modern financial principle, he only thought that Zhang Bai was afraid that he would not be able to get back the principal, so he helped him add more guarantees, and he was very happy in his heart, and he was full of thanks! He was not only happy about the interest, but mainly for the spaceship, and this young Ahurama seemed to value the Surin family very much.

"This matter is settled," Zhang Bai said, "but there is one more thing I want you to help with." I know that you are also very popular in Peshawar, can you introduce me to some nobles and ministers, and ask them to help me persuade General Adjara in Peshawar not to go to Rome but to join me, and if you can do this, I will give you the ship immediately. ”

"What?" said Surin, whose face turned white in surprise, "Lord Hazard is going to Rome? Zhang Bai was taken aback by Su Lin's reaction, he didn't expect him to be so excited about this matter, and couldn't help asking: "What happened to Hazard going to Rome?"

"Rome borders Parthia and was once an enemy country. The Roman army was now dominated by infantry, and Parthia could barely use cavalry to deal with it. If Hazard goes to Rome, help Rome build up a strong cavalry. Then if they turn their faces again and send troops to attack Parthia, this battle will not be fought, Parthia will destroy the country, and this matter must be stopped!"

Zhang Bai immediately replied: "Okay! It seems that our interests are the same in this matter." Then please, be sure to stop Hazard. As for my spaceship, it will stop next to your big camp, you pick a few clever henchmen, I will send people to train them in the next few days, take advantage of these days, I must teach them how to drive the ship, and it will be convenient to hand over when the time comes. ”

Surin was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you Ahurama, I will definitely do what you have to do." ”

"And you... Your final payment...?" Zhang Bai shamelessly urged him to pay in advance.

Su Lin didn't care, and whispered: "It's been prepared for a long time, this time it's all gold coins, I brought them all, and there is a box!"

There is gold! Zhang Baimei smiled, and said well!

......

To the east of the city, Hazard stepped in to appease the Southern Expeditionary Corps that had come from afar.

The legion had just set up camp, and they were forced to come because the southern front was now in the midst of a war.

There, Kushan's longtime rival, the Hundred Riders of India, had fallen apart, and the remnants of its kingdom of Andara, which had been cowering in the south, had been defeated and its capital had been lost.

However, the Andaro people were not defeated by Kushan, but by the emerging Sugarcane Kingdom.

This kingdom was not established for a long time, and the current king, Ah Yan (she), is good at archery. He is the son of King Luo, whose capital is located in Ayuta, and has a son who is excellent in martial arts, named King Shiche.

The Kingdom of Andaro did not surrender after the defeat and still held out on the seashore near the south, they had a fleet at sea, and it did not suffer losses. This fleet is still the dominant force on the west coast of the Indian subcontinent, even stronger than Kushan and Sasanian, and has become the last trump card of the Andaro Kingdom.

The southern expeditionary army of Kushan fought a long war with the Andaro people, and now the kingdom of Andaro has finally suffered a crushing defeat, and the army thinks that it can take advantage of the last wave and seize a lot of land. Unexpectedly, when they were heading south, the vanguard army was ambushed.

It was the archers of the Sugarcane Kingdom who ambushed them, led by their prince Shiche King. The archers hid in the dense forest, hid their figures, waited for the Kushan cavalry to enter the ambush circle, and then fired a volley of bows and arrows, which caught the Kushan cavalry by surprise.

Affected by this setback, the Southern Expeditionary Corps was of course not convinced, and was preparing to officially start a war with the Sugar Cane Kingdom, but news of internal instability came from Peshawar and asked for help. The corps commander Yveli didn't want to care about the rear, but it was Hazard's request for help, so he had to save it.

So the legion formed 5,000 cavalry, and just as it was about to set off, two foreigners, a man and a woman, holding the emperor's order, came and directly ordered the southern expeditionary corps to return to Peshawar with the main force. Although these two people are suspicious, the mark of Emperor Izuwat in the letter is not fake.

As a result, the number of troops that returned had to be increased to 20,000 horses, and the commander of the corps, Ifley, took out the most powerful generals around him, and the remaining southern expeditionary corps had to retreat several miles back from the front line under the leadership of Ifley, waiting for the opportunity to fight again.

After hearing this, Azar felt strange, he only sent a letter once, and he did not send a letter for the emperor, and the emperor was already dead at that time!

But no matter how much he asked, the generals of the legion couldn't tell what was going on. Only Adrian, the deputy commander of the Southern Expeditionary Corps, as commander-in-chief, provided a little information.

"I have seen the emperor's letter, it is not a letter from the Emperor of Dewat, but the signature of Emir Taha, in which he claims to have ascended the throne of the emperor and uses the emperor's seal, so I can only trust him. Adrian said.

"I see, whatever, Taha is dead anyway, what if he sent a letter? We should go and drink and celebrate our reunion. Hazard has a straightforward personality, he doesn't like guessing riddles in the first place, and he is happy to be reunited with his old comrades, so he doesn't pay attention to it.

"My dear Adrian, and brothers Enoch and Ahymp, come with me! I'll tell you what has happened in the past few days, and I want to hear about your front. Let's go and have some fun now!"

Several generals laughed together, and in laughter, they beat their horses and went into the city.

......

After a few more days, in the royal palace, where all the ministers, nobles, and major military generals had gathered, the merger of the two countries was finally agreed.

In the middle, Alexander and Zhang Bai, as the two dominant players, almost racked their brains.

Because as soon as the merger of the two countries was proposed, the nobles and ministers almost jumped to their feet. What to do with their property, what about their official positions? Even the eunuchs in the palace were in a hurry.

Who knows what kind of man that Artaban V was, and how he would arrange his way out? All sorts of uneasiness flowed among these nobles.
