Now that Liangguo is poor, he can't open the pot, even a copper coin is very precious to Yinggao.

And there are very few specialties in Liangguo, except for cattle, sheep and horses, all things are basically unsightly to the Great Qin merchants.

And cattle, sheep and horses are not only in his Liang country, but also in the Liao State and the Dai State that were divided out at the same time, and the quality of the horses in the Liao State and the Dai State is better, and a large number of leather goods and cattle and horse merchants are more willing to trade in the territory of Donghu and the Xiongnu that they have long been familiar with, so the Liang State does not have any advantage in special products.

In fact, the Liang Kingdom does not have an advantage in terms of products compared to the Western Regions, because the Western Regions have a large number of snow-capped mountains and desert oases, which are not only rich in spices and medicinal materials, but also rich in gold and jade, which can be sold at a good price in the Central Plains.

The only advantage that Liang occupies is its geographical advantage.

It's a thoroughfare between East and West.

In Xianyang, after five or six years of following the reform of the Qinghe Marquis, the promotion of agriculture and the development of industry and commerce has become a unified understanding of enriching the people and strengthening the country, only by making money, Liangguo has enough financial resources to build cities, promote agricultural tools, build tools, build roads, manufacture carriages, and even establish their own various colleges and factories, but now Liangguo is poor and licks chaff, and most of the people can't even wear clothes.

Now that it is summer, most of the civilians of the Liang Kingdom are shirtless all day, with a piece of animal skin around their waists, their hair unkempt and their bodies black, wandering around like savages. Even women are the same, with two ** running and grazing cattle and sheep on the grassland all day long on their naked chests, full of primitive atmosphere and charm, which makes Yinggao and his subordinate staff, who are accustomed to the neat attire of the people of Daqin, unable to stop their cheeks all day long, and when they go home, their eyes are full of those unsightly scenes, and many people have hallucinated.

At the beginning, a group of people were in high spirits and followed Ying Xing to rush to Yue's to rub their fists and rub their palms and roll their sleeves to prepare for a big fight, and when they saw Yue's situation, a group of people suddenly felt half cold, Nima's so-called royal court, there was nothing, only a few tents.

In the next nearly two years, Ying Gao and a group of staff members formed the imperial court to carry out the governance of the Yue clan and Wusun, while constantly reducing their original settings.

Ying Gao and a group of guests and staff took refuge, and the initial idea was to build the Liang Kingdom into a country almost as prosperous as Great Qin in a few years.

But after arriving, he quickly lowered it by a few grades, and decided to spend a few years to build several county counties and royal palaces in Liangguo, as well as the official residences of hundreds of officials.

But to build these buildings not only need a lot of manpower, but also need a lot of material resources, no money and no food can not be built, even if the people and prisoners are forcibly recruited, but the food still has to be managed, so the consumption of food alone can not afford the fledgling Liangguo court, and the construction of these buildings also requires a large number of knives, axes, hoes, hacksaws and other tools, these things are not available in the Yue clan, many Yue warriors still use bone sticks to fight, and the Yue clan and the Wusun people never build wood and stone buildings, They all lived in tents and yurts, and a few pieces of wood and cows, sheep and horses were enough.

Therefore, at present, Yinggao and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military goals were lowered again, and they decided to spend their money on the blade, except for the simple construction of two county towns and a simple royal city with wood, the civil and military officials still lived in yurts and tents, and a lot of energy was spent on building markets, hoping to attract merchants from the Western Regions and Great Qin to come and trade, so as to get more commercial taxes.

But according to the current situation, it seems that these Hu businessmen in the Western Regions are not very face-saving in developing business.

And the merchants of Great Qin were almost not very willing to go to the territory of Liangguo to do business.

Therefore, Yinggao spent a huge amount of money to arrange a large number of leather goods collected by the Yueshi, Wusun and other tribes, and the money collected from Daqin was not enough to pay salaries to his harem and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and after several cheeky requests from the Qin Emperor for some porcelain, silk, glass, tea, and now he arranged for the envoys to go to Xianyang to ask for it, the emperor is no longer very kind to see him, and the reward is getting less and less, and Yinggao himself is almost embarrassed.

The high-spirited spirit when he was divided into seals has become the embarrassed appearance he has now, which Yinggao himself never imagined.

It is so difficult to build a country from scratch.

This is still under the premise of having Great Qin's strong backing, if there is no great deterrence from Great Qin, it is estimated that it will be an unassumable and arduous task to make all the tribes of the Yue Clan and Wusun submissive.

"Qinghe Hou...... How could I complete all kinds of reforms so easily, and turn Daqin into a prosperous and rich country in a few years, and I couldn't do it? Yinggao sat on a high throne and muttered to himself as he tugged at a short bush of whiskers on his chin.

"Great King, the countries of the Western Regions and Great Qin are separated by seven or eight thousand or even tens of thousands of miles, and it takes half a year to go back and forth, and my Liang Kingdom is just on the way to go, as long as it is properly planned, it will surely prosper soon!" The right minister stood up and bowed his hand to comfort Yinggao and said.

"Well planned...... How do you plan it right? Yinggao's face was extremely depressed, "Now that this king has built a market, he has also lowered his business taxes like Daqin, but these merchants from the Western Regions don't stop trading, what can I do?" ”

"Don't worry too much, these merchants from the Western Regions buy goods on credit from the Central Plains and transport them to the Western Regions for sale, it is inconvenient to come and go, if the king comes forward to Xianyang to ask His Majesty to buy a large number of porcelain, silk, glass, tea and other goods needed by the Hu merchants of the Western Regions to hoard, wouldn't these Hu merchants of the Western Regions not have to go to Xianyang in the future!" A minister stood up and said.

"Liu Zhongcheng is right, the king, since the Marquis of Qinghe can give a large number of valuables to these Hu merchants in the Western Regions, he must also be willing to give them to Liangguo, after all, the identity of the king is completely incomparable with those Hu merchants!"

"However, the king can send envoys to Xianyang to visit the Marquis of Qinghe!"

Many ministers stood up for joy and submitted their posts.

"What do the two prime ministers think?" Yinggao also looked at his two prime ministers with a happy face.

"The minister thinks that this strategy will definitely work, as long as the Marquis of Qinghe comes forward, the merchants of Daqin will definitely be willing to give the goods to the Liang Kingdom on credit, as long as we have these goods, when the time comes, we will resell them to the Hu merchants from the Western Regions, and this entry and exit will definitely make a lot of money!" The left minister nodded excitedly.

Zuo Xiang's name is Zuo Qiu Ping, but after Zuo Qiu Ming, a historian who compiled two volumes of history books in Spring and Autumn and Chinese, his ancestral home is Qi County, he is a Qi family with a deep family background, because he is influenced by Lu Di Confucian disciples, so they are all proficient in Confucianism, but the descendants of Zuoqiu are not blindly touting Confucianism, but there are many critical inheritances, in fact, under the influence of free scholarship to the Qi State Jixia School Palace, Zuo Qiu Ping is a very pragmatic integration scholar, from Qi to Xianyang for several years has not been reused, And witnessed a series of reform measures of the Marquis of Qinghe and the promotion of Xunzi's theory of governance, so he is also very pragmatic for governing the country, this time after following Yinggao to Yueshi, he successively presented several policies and won Yinggao's appreciation, and was awarded the post of Zuo Xiang, Liangguo was able to begin to embark on the track of development in just two years, Zuo Qiuping's merits are obvious to all, not only Yinggao appreciated him, but also the civil and military officials above the court were quite convinced of him.

Zuo Qiuping spoke, and the right minister also nodded in agreement, so Yinggao stood up happily, "Since the two prime ministers think that this matter is feasible, then the king will arrange for an envoy to go to Xianyang to meet the Marquis of Qinghe, which Aiqing is willing to go to Xianyang for the envoy?" ”

There was a great silence in the courtroom.

Many people feel their hearts pounding and their mouths are a little dry.

Visiting the Marquis of Qinghe, it is naturally an extremely honorable thing, when they were in Xianyang before, their group of so-called court officials were just a group of staff and guests without any status under the master's master, and their reputation was not obvious, and there was no opportunity to meet the Marquis of Qinghe, and now they followed King Liang to the Yueshi, and finally mixed into an official robe, if they can get acquainted with the Marquis of Qinghe through this opportunity, they will inevitably be added to the official and entered the Jue in the future to get great development prospects.

Although this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, the task pressure is also very great, if you want to use the Marquis of Qinghe to give King Liang credit to a large number of porcelain, silk, tea, glass and other valuables that are considered luxurious in the capital of Great Qin, these disciples who have only been officials for less than two years and have no intersection with the Marquis of Qinghe are all nervous one by one.

The opportunity is good, but if you mess up the matter, it is estimated that you will not be able to come back as an official.

Therefore, for King Liang's mission, no official in the court stood up to accept it.

Yinggao's happy face slowly began to solidify, and there was a trace of astonishment and anger on his cheeks.

He is only twenty-three years old this year, although he is young, but as a prince and king of the Great Qin Emperor, in this era of the world, the king's words are the existence of a word, and no one dares to have the slightest criticism of his status in the Liang Kingdom.

"What? Didn't all of you Aiqing agree with Liu Zhongcheng's strategy? Yinggao's voice became stiff.

There was still great silence in the courtroom, with many officials secretly making eye contact with each other, and others eager to try, but all clenched their fists and finally forcibly resisted their impulses.

This is an unpredictable mission, no one dares to pack tickets, and it is okay to come up with ideas, but to try their luck with the future that they have worked so hard to get, it is better to let others go to this matter, although Liangguo is poor and white, and women are ugly and make people spit out, but after all, he is a big official here, and he has a fief before going out, and he is more than a hundred times stronger than the one who couldn't open the pot in Xianyang before.

"The king, it's not that the ministers are unwilling to go to Xianyang to meet the Qinghe Marquis for the sake of the ministers, but we are not familiar with the Qinghe Marquis, once the Qinghe Marquis refuses, it will not only humiliate the king, but also delay the development of the Liang Kingdom, but since the Xiyue Marquis is now the chief official of the Daqin Commerce Bureau, the minister recommends a person to go to Xianyang, first to meet the Xiyue Hou, and then the Xiyue Hou will introduce the Qinghe Hou, at this time it will definitely be done!" Zuo Qiuping, the left minister, combed through the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty like a grate in his mind, and then suddenly remembered a person.

"Who is the one recommended by the left minister?" Yinggao breathed a sigh of relief.

"At the beginning, the Yue Clan's account conspiracy ministers Wen Bupo!" Left Qiu Ping opened.

"Wow~" There was an instant commotion above the court, and all the officials turned their heads to look at Zuo Qiuping in confusion.

"The difference between Zuo Xiang's words, Wen Bupo is a member of the Yue Clan, and now he is not an official of my Liang Kingdom, how can he be an envoy to Daqin as an envoy of the Great King?" Someone stood up and retorted loudly,

"How can't it, Xiyuehou, who is now in charge of the Daqin Department of Commerce, was still the king of Zuoping of the Yueshi clan at the beginning, and now he has been recommended by the Marquis of Qinghe to become the important minister of the three grades of the Great Qin, Wen Bupo has lived in the Zhao State for more than ten years, is proficient in the culture of the Central Plains, and was the right-hand man of the king of the Yueshi at the beginning, and has twice sent envoys to Daqin, and is familiar with the Marquis of Xiyue, and arranged for him to contact the Marquis of Xiyue, for the development of the Liang Kingdom and the Yueshi tribe, the Marquis of Xiyue will inevitably try his best to promote this matter, which is much better than us rashly going to visit the Marquis of Qinghe directly!" Zuo Qiuping explained.

"The king, Zuo Xiang's words are reasonable, the minister and Wen Bupo have had several contacts, this person is indeed proficient in the Central Plains culture, familiar with the classics of the hundred schools, and calm and pragmatic, although he is a Yue's people, but most of our Liangguo people are Yue's people, His Majesty the First Emperor can reuse Xiyuehou, the king can naturally reuse Wen Bupo, and Wen Bupo has a great reputation among the Yue clans, if he is allowed to enter the court as an official, it will also make all the tribes of the Yue clan more obedient......" Behind Zuo Qiuping, an official wearing a three-grade costume stood up and pushed the post.

"The ministers seconded it!" In the midst of the huhula, a large group of officials stood up.
