"The widow led his division into the customs, and he was accidentally injured during the war, and he also suffered a brain disease," said Nao, who summoned the envoys of the four countries in the name of Da Ao at noon the next day. "Yesterday's nonsense was caused by a brain disease."

"Brain, brain disease......" The envoys of the four countries had different expressions. Tian Jiao was skeptical, Wei Jian couldn't believe it, Lian Yu was overjoyed, and Han Cheng pinched himself twice, thinking that he was dreaming.

"Madame." Han Cheng's voice came from outside, and his voice was a little excited. "The king of Chu sent an envoy to Ye."

"Brother Wang?" Miqin snorted, she went outside, only to see a team of knights in armor standing at the front of the convoy, a knight standing beside Han Cheng Zhang Liang, and when he saw the knight, he saluted: "On the orders of my king, I personally welcome Princess Qin back to Chu." ”

"The general is exempt." The number of knights was in the hundreds, so Miqin called him a general. Zhang Liang was a little distracted at this time: these cavalrymen rode eight-foot-high sweaty horses, although the knights were not tall, but because of the horses, they looked very heroic.

The more than 1,600 sweaty horses transported by Hu Shang could not be hidden, and all of them were filled into the light jockeys, and only about 200 were distributed to the three kingdoms of Zhao, Qi and Wei, thinking that they were reprimanded. According to the calculations of the Ministry of Military Affairs, a distance of 1,000 meters takes 1 minute and 22 seconds for Dima, 1 minute and 16 seconds for a horse, 1 minute and 11 seconds for Nissa, and only one minute and 7 seconds for a sweaty horse.

It is not hard to escort Mrs. Qin back to Chu, and since the King of Chu has already sent someone to greet her, then things are simpler. When the convoy arrived in Xinyi, it boarded the boat that came to greet it, and went straight down to Yingdu along Rushui and Huaishui. Seeing that Chu Guo even had poetry and calligraphy schools in the villages, Zhang Liang, who was full of beautiful fantasies about Yingdu, was disappointed as soon as he landed from the Huaishui Wharf.

The capital of Chu may be prosperous, but it is chaotic, and even if Mrs. Qin is escorted by the knights of the Chu army, she is blocked outside the city gate. A quarter of an hour later, as he passed the blockage, he saw a pool of blood on the ground and a corpse covered in sackcloth by the side of the road. When he entered the city, there was a pungent and unpleasant smell of coal, and the constant roar of the machine shook people's nerves, and Prince Yi in the carriage behind him didn't know if he was frightened by this roar, and he began to cry.

The mountain residence in South Korea is naturally not as prosperous as Chu, Wei, Qi and Zhao, but it is so prosperous that it is so chaotic that there is no other place in the world except Yingdu. The chaos is one, and the ragged paupers that appear on the side of the road from time to time surprised Zhang Liang. It is said that the sea boat of Chu can pass the world, and there is no other wealth, how can there be so many poor people?

The convoy stopped and stopped, Zhang Liang didn't have time to take a closer look, there was no doubt that the reality had a huge impact on him, Chu State was fundamentally different from what he imagined, but whether this difference was just chaos and poverty, he couldn't answer.

"Your lord, this year's sea boat will be transported for another year, and six thousand horses will be gone." Yingdu is sleeping, and Zhao Huang, Shi Yu, Wugou Chang and others are reporting to Xiong Jing. It was already a howling north wind outside the bed, and it was the day when the fleet set sail.

"I thought I should buy a dragon horse from the Seleucid kingdom again." Zhao Huang suggested after speaking.

"Great King, the Seleucids want to buy my waistcoat, and they are willing to exchange three sets for one horse, limited to two thousand." No hook is also long. He did not return for the previous year, and when the monsoon turned this spring, he sailed away from the Red Sea, and after joining the convoy of horses at the port of Wubley, he returned to Chu with the flotilla in the autumn.

"Three sets for one horse?" Xiong Jing smiled. The chain mail is not ring piece armor, the chain mail of the armor has to be compiled for one or two years, and the area of the vest is several times that of the armor chain mail, and it cannot be compiled at all without six or seven years. "No."

"The king thinks how many armors can be exchanged?" The commander was only a captain, and he did not understand the details of the manufacture of armor, nor did he understand the heavy cavalry, but Seleucus was eager to get the chain mail of the war horse.

"The vest involves heavy riding, and heavy riding is the heavy weapon of the country, how can heavy weapons be lightly shown to others?" Xiong Jing asked rhetorically, and then he complained: "The Seleucid merchants are unwilling to lower the price to sell silk, how can I profit?" They do not want to make small profits but sell them quickly, but they are reluctant to sell for large profits. ”

After the market was completely occupied, profits fell sharply. The silk price reduction strategy only quickly seized the original silk market, and did not open up a new silk market. There are reasons for this because of the Seleucid merchants, and the bigger reason is the Seleucid royal court.

Silk is taxed on valuation. The price of silk sold to the port of Wolbrai fell again and again, but the valuation of silk by Seleucid officials remained unchanged, especially at the customs in the direction of the Mediterranean. According to last year's survey, the Seleucid port in the Mediterranean direction still sells silk for 30 to 40 gold horses, and half of the price has to be paid to the Seleucid tax collectors.

Thankfully, after Ashoka's death, India was in the midst of a war, and India's demand for armor had skyrocketed – something that may have been blamed on Oetel. While still building a city in Sinhala, he met with an envoy from the patriarch of the Deccan Plateau, Sumuga, and promised to sell his armor, and the Baicheng people soon launched a massive rebellion, which brought all of South India out of Fahrenheit's control.

"Please go to the green ocean to enter the sea in the middle of the earth." The entry into the Mediterranean Sea has been planned for a long time, but it has been delayed until today. Now that the improved Flying Shear Boat has been launched, it is time to explore the Mediterranean route.

"Yes." Xiong Jingdao asked the shipyard to launch a new type of flying shears this year, in order to set sail for the Mediterranean this winter. "However, the Seleucid silk silk is thirty or forty gold horses, and the sea boat reaches the sea in the middle of the earth, and what is the price of silk brocade?"

Xiong Jing's question made Wu Gou ask about the taste of war. The sea boat of the Chu State, which arrived on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea at great risk, naturally had to sell silk, Chu paper, lacquerware, porcelain, armor, ironware, and spices. At the current price of silk, the Mediterranean sells for twenty gold a horse at most, but this price is enough to make the Seleucid merchants lose all their money.

Zhao Huang, Wu Gou Chang and others were thinking about how to avoid war, but they didn't expect Xiong Jing's next sentence to make everyone stunned: "I don't think that if the sea boat can reach the sea in the middle of the earth, it is necessary to control the west coast of India and the east coast of Nanzhou, and it is strictly forbidden for merchant ships to carry pepper, ginger, dried rosin, myrrh, frankincense and other valuable goods into the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea." ”

"Not even the king!" Zhao Huang reacted the latest, "In this way, Seleucus and India will be at odds with my Great Chu." ”

"The Hundred Vehicles of India have rebelled, and none of the south of Kalinga is owned by the Indian royal court, so why is it at odds with me?" Xiong Jing asked rhetorically. "The Indian envoys urgently need the armor of our Chu State, and they need me to buy rice for gold and silver, otherwise how can we quell the rebellion? The Seleucid commercial tax was extremely heavy, and it was inevitable to buy my silk silk and sell it at a high price to the Mediterranean countries, and the sea boat entered the Mediterranean.

Now that all the seas and boats of all countries are sailing along the coast, a single gunboat can block the sea routes, and if they do not block the sea routes today to gain huge profits, they will have to send troops to India to grab the rice. How easy is it to ask about naval warfare and land warfare? ”
