Chapter 1193: Outside, Inside
After that, Chen Xi watched a large-scale scuffle, and when it was almost time to Shen, the battle was over, and Liu Bei did not come, so Li You rewarded Xiliang soldiers with a bunch of wine and meat steamed buns in the name of Liu Bei.
"The kind of Liangzhou soldiers you said who can't do anything but kill people, I took a look, and it's mainly the headquarters of Ado, Zhiran, and Zijian." Li You and Chen Xi also sat on the high platform casually and ate the same things as Xiliangbing.
Big pot rice, how to say, especially the messy stew, the spices are enough, it is actually very good to eat one or two meals, and Chen Xi is not too picky......
"I thought you wouldn't eat something like this." Li You followed Chen Xi and suddenly said when he added meat to a bowl, "And I thought you couldn't accept this way of eating." ”
"It's nothing, I'm not so particular, in fact, I don't reject the food in a bowl." Chen Xi shook his head and said, it is not popular to divide meals in the future.
"As for the taste, it's actually okay, although I'm quite picky, but it's not like that." Chen Xi shook his head and said, "At least it's much better than when I came to Taishan, I always think it's not easy for you to eat unpalatable food for so many years." ”
"Actually, it's mainly because you're too picky." Li You showed a smile, "It's good to have meat to eat at the beginning, it's all white meat, and it's rare to eat meat like you with so many spices and seasonings, and it's you who can't get tired of eating." ”
"This in itself is a normal pursuit of human beings, why don't you eat white meat from tomorrow?" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said, Chen Xi did not strictly control those aspects related to the kitchen, so by now stir-fry has begun to become popular in the world.
"Wenhe has identified some of the countries around us not long ago, and we have collected a group of people who are proficient in the Anxi, Wusun script and language." Li You tugged at his mouth. I have to admit that this is indeed a normal pursuit of human beings.
"Uh, you've gathered this talent so quickly?" Chen Xi said in disbelief.
"Since there is a record in the historical records, it is natural that there have been exchanges, the first Han Bo Wanghou, and not much to say, the death of the former Dingyuan Marquis is not more than a hundred years. I'm looking for something, what can't I find? Li You said casually, with the power of the Han family, other countries in this era can do it, how can the Han family not do it?
"Which countries did you get the relevant materials?" Chen Xi frowned, it would be bad if it was exposed, he didn't expect Jia Xu and Li You to be so resolute at all.
"Rest in peace, Great Xia, Tiaozhi, and Great Qin!" Li You glanced at Chen Xi and said. "Although it is not very detailed, but as you said, rest in peace, Great Qin is indeed at the level of the empire, and among them, Great Qin may have the ambition to annex the world as you said."
When Chen Xi said this, he obviously felt Li You's jealousy, and couldn't help but wonder what materials Li You had gotten, and he would be so jealous.
"The Chamber of Commerce is in charge of Zizhong, and the Wu family and the Li family have some business outside the Yumen Pass. So it's a little involved, when we're collecting news about Wusun. The caravan that the Li family had come to Shanshan to buy Meiyu had just returned. Li You said with a smile on his face.
"Where did the Wu family's caravan go?" Chen Xi remembered that Li You didn't say that the Wu family in Yizhou, Li Wei's Li family can run so far, and it would be strange if the Wu family of the five wealthy businessmen couldn't run farther.
"Xian Cai Kingdom, the Wu family went to the Xiang Cai Kingdom next to the rest, this country has the strength of the princes all the way according to the Wu family's tour merchants." Li You looked at Chen Xi and said.
"Huh?" Chen Xi looked confused. Didn't remember the country at all.
"Anyway, as you said, the situation next to us can be said to be chaotic, but the northwest desert blocks part of it, and the southwest mountains block part of it." Li You said with some tiredness, "As for the Guishuang and Daqin you said. There is no way to get past it. ”
"Far away, the empire is like this, the territory is vast, just like we are thousands of miles away from our farthest border." Chen Xi smiled and said, it's good that it hasn't been debunked.
"Great Qin may be bigger and stronger than ours." Li You was silent for a while and said, "The Wu family merchants came back and brought back some Wusun merchants, one of whom had been to Daqin when he was young, and it would take about half a year to take a boat from the east of Daqin to the west of Daqin......
"......" Chen Xi looked at Li You and didn't know what to say.
The Mediterranean Sea became the Roman Inland Sea, but it took half a year to take a boat, which is really scary, but thinking about the shipbuilding technology at that time, it was still an oar, not a runner, and it was very likely to take half a year.
"Rest in peace?" Chen Xi frowned and said, compared to Rome, which is far away, rest is Chen Xi's goal, and Central Asia is now a fertile land, and it really belongs to the range of the Han family that can barely reach out.
"I've been pinching Daqin for a hundred years, the war has basically not stopped, I heard that it's quite miserable, Daqin looks like he's about to win, I think you underestimated it when you said it at the time." Li You sighed and said, "I don't think we can carry the heyday of the Han family for a hundred years. ”
Chen Xi rolled his eyes and didn't say anything, anyway, he didn't think they couldn't bear it.
"There is no problem with our generation, and we can even press back, but a hundred years is five or six generations, and it is so easy to defeat the strong with the weak." Li You shook his head and said, "Rest in peace and the war with Great Qin, I already know everything that Wusun people know. ”
"Rest in peace is weaker than Daqin's national strength, and in the early years, he relied on a generation of strong and strong people to fight back, but it won't work later, although there are indeed problems within the country, but it is impossible for any country to be completely united internally." Chen Xi nodded and said.
Chen Xi has deep feelings about this aspect, since the beginning of Mount Tai, he has carefully managed the interpersonal relationships under Liu Bei, tied up with interests, united with reputation, helped with ideals, and bound with morality, and as a result, the upper echelons turned against him twice.
This is simply helpless, what is done right has been boycotted twice, it should be said that politics really looks at the position of the feet, or it should be said that politicians and politicians are completely two creatures, the former at least has unshakable thoughts, and the latter only has unshakable interests!
"I thought you didn't know, but it looks like you do." Li You didn't suspect Chen Xi's channels, it took him a while to get this information, and Chen Xi knew that it was normal.
"The problem of external and internal security, which country has no internal problems, there are factions within a family, unity means that it is not easy to give full play to their respective strengths without pulling their backs." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said. (To be continued.) )
