554 optimistic Yan Wang

At that time, the triangular trade was very famous, and in order to obtain huge slave resources, the colonists tried their best to obtain slave resources. Slaves existed in tribal warfare, where the colonists exchanged small amounts of liquor and light industry for prisoners of war with local tribes, and sometimes the colonists themselves participated in the war. In this way, the current contradiction between the farmers and the factory owners in the Qin State was resolved. It also temporarily allowed slavery to be preserved. In fact, Qin's current large-scale agricultural implements could not meet the needs of production, either too bulky or technically unclear. These reasons led to the necessity of the existence of slaves. Moreover, the relations between the surrounding ethnic groups of the Qin State were extremely complicated. There is a need for him to do so.

Shang Wen told the two of them about this idea. But the two clearly disagreed.

There are also specific considerations for disagreeing, first, the Qin State does not know the situation of the Xiongnu in the north, and as for the specific situation, it does not know what is going on at all. Second, the Qin people have always been distrustful of the Huns. Moreover, the Huns were also unruly, and they were not used to each other. Now the gap in strength between the two sides is extremely large, especially the Qin State, whose national strength is now increasing at an alarming rate every day. Coupled with the fact that the Qin people had mastered advanced weapons, the Qin people believed that they could solve all problems by force. Such a situation existed among every general of the Qin State, and it was not only the generals who thought so, but even the ordinary people thought so. Peace. If you want peace, you can be peaceful. The power of peace was in the hands of the Qin people. The Qin people did not want peace. And the Qin people hate such a people next to them who have loose hair, never take a bath in their lives, and look ugly. They think they deserve to die.

In the end, it was the Qin State that occupied the initiative in all the surrounding situations. Qin didn't need to give them peace. The thrill of war is far greater than peace. There is a general militancy in the country.

After listening to the analysis of the two. Shang Wen was helpless. Even if Shang Wen forcibly passed, then how to implement it, the intelligence personnel were subject to the Qin State's war operations and could not be carried out at all. The specific situation of the other party was not known to Qin Guo at all. How serious is this, Qin only knows that there are small countries such as Loulan and Cheshi in the Western Regions, but what is the name of their king and how much is the population. What kind of situation with weapons is not known at all. Qin only knew where they were. I don't know anything else.

Foreign trade, tapping into these potential markets does not seem to be working. Shang Wen had a headache when he thought about these problems. These problems will be put aside for the time being and handed over to the advisory group to be formed in the future to solve them. Hope they have a good opinion.

At this time, it was already the beginning of December, and the Qin State had not sent troops to fight against the Six Kingdoms for two years. However, for the surrounding ethnic minorities, the Qin State actively adopted an expansionist policy. The Six Nations enjoyed a rare peaceful life for two years. But the State of Qi and the State of Yan were inseparable. But the scale of the war can be controlled.

King Yan also announced his return to Yandu from Liaoxi. In order to alleviate the adverse effects of the haste when he escaped. He definitely made the entrance ceremony very huge.

He spent 200,000 gold to build a highway from Liaoxi to Yandu. Then the roads in the city were repaired. Not only that, but the palace was rebuilt. What is different is that the Yan Kingdom Palace spent a huge amount of money to build a palace made of glass.

The huge floor-to-ceiling glass allowed the engineers and workers of the Qin State to spend countless brain cells to make it for their thinking. The size of the glass exceeds that of the Xianyang Palace of the Qin State.

A lot of things are coming up for the first time. For example, street lights. In the state of Qin, because of the curfew. Street lights have not yet appeared in a specific way. And King Yan spent a huge amount of money to erect street lights.

A street lamp is a specialized large kerosene lamp. The advent of kerosene lamps allowed the Qin State to replace the small oil lamps of the past. And the light of the lamp is brighter than that of a small oil lamp. And he has a glass lampshade in his appearance. This way kerosene lamps can be hung outside.

The reason why Yan Wang made street lamps was because he could also show light effects at night. The appearance of paper, especially colored paper, can make lanterns have various artistic effects. King Yan wanted to hang all kinds of lanterns after entering the city. Fireworks are then released to increase the effect of entering the city.

The ceremony was very pompous, and he planned to have his army enter the city in full order during the day. Cavalry, infantry, artillery. The neat uniforms of the soldiers, these have surpassed the previous generations of Yan kings. Such an achievement is unique.

Qin reporters were also invited. The latest photographic techniques have also been used by journalists. Although the newspaper is working on a new method of printing. But it did not prevent Qin from taking these photos to record this moment.

The fifth day of December. King Yan's army and relying on the army drove into the city with confidence.

On the main road of Yandu is an asphalt road that was first paved by engineers of the Qin State. The road is paved and clean, but it is a little disproportionate to the dilapidated houses on both sides of the capital, which has experienced war, and the houses of civilians have been severely burned and looted. Even the royal palace was not spared. But even so, King Yan did not repair a house for his people. All he built was the palace, the roads, and the bare lamp poles.

The Yan soldiers wore crisp uniforms, and their boots looked very bright with the help of shoe polish. Some of the people of Yan Kingdom who were watching indifferently couldn't help but raise their arms to block the sun.

The temporary military strength of the Yan army did not make the Yan people, who seemed numb, show a trace of joy. On the contrary, what is more revealed in their eyes is a kind of helplessness of life. Gao Yuanli was also in the crowd. He was delighted to see such an army, but he saw the contrast between the dilapidated houses on both sides and the ostentatious reliance of King Yan. He shook his head and sighed helplessly and left.

"Smack." A reporter used the camera in his hand to capture the moment when Gao faded away. The camera was still a little bulky, but it captured the moment. It can give journalists the freedom to use their imagination to write about the stories they see.

"You, you." Gao Yuanli was obviously not comfortable with the actions of the reporters of the Qin State.

"Hello sir. We are journalists for the Express. Can you tell us what you just thought? The reporter asked.

"This." Gao gradually left a little wooden.

"It doesn't matter. Tell me what you really think. Be bold and say. The reporter encouraged.

"This, I, I am puzzled by what the king has done. Yandu is in ruins. Why not spend a little money to build some houses for us Yanmin, alas, I won't say. Gao Yuanli wanted to speak, but he couldn't say it, and then turned to leave. The reporter expressed helplessness. When they were interviewing, they saw a lot of this. However, it also reflects the fact that King Yan is a little blind and arrogant.
