"Wow~"

There was an incomparable exclamation throughout the palace, everyone was stunned, their mouths were wide open to stuff a large duck egg, and there was even the sound of the spear in the hands of the guards guarding the palace falling to the ground.

"Your Majesty, there is this!" Another official pulled out the key to open the second wooden box, and Antioch's eyes fell on it, and his body shook and his body almost flowed again.

This is a set of exquisite tea sets, a teapot with six teacups, the shape is peculiar like jade, the whole body is smooth and delicate and snow-white, and there are almost no traces of bonding in one body, and there are exquisite patterns outlined on it with colors.

"I'll show you all about it!" This time, the mission officials did not let Antiochus do it, but carefully took out the teapots and teacups one by one and placed them on the desk, and in the sunlight, this set of porcelain tea sets exuded a more seductive brilliance.

The nobles and officials on the entire palace were once again suddenly distracted as if they had been struck by lightning, their faces were even more dull, and all the eyes of the people were completely deeply attracted by this set of porcelain and could not take off half of it.

"Porcelain...... Your Majesty, this is porcelain ......" The mission officials thought Antioch had not seen it.

Because the trade between Daqin and the Western Regions has also been more than a year in the last year, many of Daqin's commodities are very scarce in the Western Regions, Dawan also has some, Daxia and Kangju are very few, and Anxi and Daqin are more than 20,000 miles, and there are thousands of miles away from the Western Regions, not to mention that there is also a rugged and difficult plateau and snow-capped mountains in the middle, and it takes nearly a month just to cross the green mountains, and the loss of goods in this process is very large, even the merchants of the Western Regions who are familiar with the bitter cold life of the desert are discouraged. Only the Dawan merchants who lived in the snow-capped mountain plateau and the border area of Central Asia were more willing to communicate with each other, so they slowly spread the goods of Daqin to Kangju Bactria in Central Asia, the body poison country in South Asia, and the rest of West Asia.

At least after Li Shun led the mission into Rest, except for a few merchants who had traveled between Central Asia and West Asia for many years, there was basically no information about porcelain and silk.

However, it was evident that the merchant did not care about the high distance and the danger to his life for the sake of profit, because at this time, Antiochus III, who had come to his senses again, carefully put down the glass, and then found a notched porcelain bowl from under the dining table and placed it next to a set of tea sets.

This is a porcelain bowl that a merchant of Great Xia bid for and sold in the city of Anxi, such a beautiful utensil immediately caused a sensation in the entire city of Apameya, and countless commoners and nobles went to watch it, and then were auctioned by a nobleman for twenty gold coins and sent to the palace.

However, this porcelain bowl that has just made the entire palace shake and envy is dwarfed by this set of tea sets and glasses, just like a long-tailed pheasant in the Peacock Garden, which looks good, but in fact, it has no net worth that attracts attention.

And...... It's still broken.

Belch! Looking at the ordinary porcelain bowl that Antiochus III touched, the mission official was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and arched his hand and said, "It turns out that Your Majesty has already seen porcelain!" ”

"Porcelain...... ¥#@......" Antioch pointed to the missing piece of the porcelain bowl and didn't know how to describe it, and finally stretched out two fingers and kept gesturing.

The mission officials turned their heads in confusion to look at a group of businessmen sitting next to Li Shun.

"My Majesty, Your Majesty said that he spent twenty gold coin......s on this porcelain bowl," a group of merchants muttered to each other for a while, and after a while of interpreting to each other, a Hu merchant from the Western Regions stood up and said.

"Puff~Puff~"

Li Shun and several other mission officials, who were drinking slowly, all squirted out the wine in their mouths.

"You...... You heard it right! The mission official steadied himself and asked with a trembling face.

After a few merchants muttered again for a while, Hu Shang of the Western Regions nodded affirmatively: "My lord, I heard you right, it's twenty gold coins!" ”

Everyone in the mission couldn't stop twitching.

Don't look carefully, Antiochus III's missing bowl worth twenty gold coins is the most ordinary porcelain on the market in Daqin, most of them are made by Jiangxi porcelain factory, although the workmanship is not bad, the firing is also very strong, the enamel is delicate, but it is white with green, the retail price in Daqin is about seventy or eighty yuan, although it is also a luxury for ordinary people in Daqin, but many ordinary wealthy families can still afford to fill their faces, but ...... But such a broken bowl sold for twenty gold coins in peace, a price that completely broke the embassy officials' perception of the value of porcelain, and it was really broken......

You must know that the price of this whole set of precious tea sets from the Qinghe Porcelain Factory that they brought all the way to Daqin is only a thousand yuan, and it is only a little more than two taels when exchanged for gold.

"Your Majesty, I have an enamel military kettle, which is ten times better and easier to use than this porcelain bowl, and I will only sell you a hundred gold coins......" The official of the mission felt that he was about to explode, and he didn't care whether Antioch understood it or not, and said excitedly while lifting his official robe.

"Du Heiya, what are you doing with melon skin?" Li Gui, who was full of black lines, even came out of the Xianyang dialect.

Under Li Shun's warning, the mission officials did not take out the enamel military kettle they were carrying, and a group of noble officials in Antioch looked at each other and did not know what was happening.

"Your Majesty, please look at this gift!" Another official hurriedly opened the third box, reached out and took out a piece of silk from it and shook it gently in the air.

The snow-white silk is smooth and delicate, fluttering lightly, gently swaying like a white cloud, and the white color ripples in the sun.

"#@¥%......" Antiochus III's eyes bulged out again, and after a moment, he rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked at the silk again, and finally reached out and stroked it gently, his eyes flashing with extreme intoxication.

This snow-white ...... It's smooth...... It's soft......

He was even more obsessed with the body of his favorite and most beautiful concubine.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......" The officials of the mission called several times, and Antioch withdrew his obsessive eyes from the gently swaying silk, then looked at the box, and after hesitating, he reached out and took out a golden silk again and rubbed it gently, and even pressed it on his face to feel the tenderness of the silk, and the obsessive expression on his face was even worse, not at all like a great king who ruled millions of people.

"Your Majesty, here are two catties of tea as a reward from my Great Qin Shi Huangdi!"

The officials of the mission opened the last wooden box, and inside were neatly placed four finely carved bamboo tubes, on which were not only carved with plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, but also carved a few lines of poetry in small seals, although the appearance did not look as dazzling as porcelain, glass and silk, but it naturally had an antique atmosphere that made people instantly calm.

After the officials of the mission finished introducing the four gifts given by the First Emperor, Li Shun stood up and said: "Your Majesty, we have come all the way from Great Qin, and it has taken nearly two years, and the road is rugged and difficult, there are alpine deserts, snow-capped mountains and rivers, and countless wild beasts, snakes, insects, robbers and barbarian tribes, so there are great losses along the way, but these are the gifts that my Great Qin Shi Huang ordered to bring to your country, so they are precious, and I hope that Your Majesty will carefully consider the suggestions of His Majesty the First Emperor to communicate and trade, so as to enhance mutual understanding and trust between each other... …”

Li Shun said a word, several translators exchanged with each other and then translated a sentence, and when Li Shun spoke, the emotions of everyone in the palace slowly calmed down, until Li Shun finished speaking, after listening to the last sentence of a few translations, Antiochus III's mood at this time also roughly returned to calm and sat down, straightened his golden crown and muttered a few words seriously, and several translators translated it to Li Shun and others.

Antioch's meaning is very simple, and it also carries a very common official tone, which is roughly to thank the First Emperor of Great Qin for the precious gift, and also said that he will seriously consider the advice of His Majesty the First Emperor to communicate with the envoys, and will definitely arrange for the envoys to go to Great Qin to thank His Majesty the First Emperor, and also send the best gift of the Rest Empire.

For this statement, Li Shun naturally still has to pretend to thank him, at least for the moment, it seems that the emperor of the Rest Empire does not have the slightest malice, so as long as he returns to Xianyang safely this time, everyone will inevitably be a miracle again, and the reward for knighthood will inevitably not be less, so both sides are happy to continue to drink and feast.

Antiochus III, who had received four exquisite and precious gifts, was very happy and excited, and asked the Minister of the Interior to select a group of beautiful noble girls from his palace to accompany the Li Shun mission.

When he drank to the end, Li Shun also hung himself on his belt with an enamel tea jar that accompanied him for 20,000 miles to the diplomat of the Rest Empire, Agato was also excited to give Li Shun a scimitar with a silver scabbard inlaid with turquoise, this act of exchanging gifts immediately pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax, many nobles and officials stood up to sing and dance to the accompaniment of music, and a group of officials and interpreters of the mission who drank were all up and danced. The entire palace was as lively and noisy as a group of demons dancing.

The banquet was not over until the sun set, Li Shun and the others were drunk and sent to the hotel where they stayed with the support of the maid, and then each hugged a few Persian girls on the soft Persian carpet and them shamelessly for most of the night, and the foreign minister arranged very carefully, and even the accompanying forbidden soldiers and servants each arranged a female escort, so throughout the night, the hotel where the mission stayed did not stop all kinds of comfortable humming and women's moaning, until it was almost dawn and slowly quieted down.

Li Shun and others tossed all night, and Antiochus III in the palace did not sleep well this night, because when he took the four gifts sent by Li Shun and others back to the palace, this exquisite magical item immediately caused a sensation in the harem, and the queen and a group of concubines all gathered together to watch, and finally they were deeply attracted by the soft, light and smooth silk, and even the gods could not get rid of this fatal temptation.

This is a kind of luxurious fabric that has never been seen before, noble and gorgeous and other simple words can not describe its exquisiteness, if used to make dresses, it must be the most beautiful clothes in the world, wearing it will inevitably attract everyone's attention......

But there were only ten horses of silk, which was a drop in the bucket for Antiochus III's equally large harem, and all the women used all their power to serve their king tenderly in order to obtain a piece of precious silk.

So when Antiochus III woke up the next day, not only his legs were weak, but he also had two dark circles under his eyes, and he walked a little floating.
