Chapter 34: Where is Xu Fu?
"In the past few months of my eastern tour, do you have any news of Xu Fu?"
Ying Zheng sat on the top of the main hall, looking down on the ministers, and his aura was full of aura.
"Your Majesty, Xu Fu took a huge building boat, set off from Weishui, and has already gone to sea, no one knows where he is at the moment!"
"Yes, all counties and counties have also sent people to reply, and I haven't seen Xu Fu and others!"
"Xu Fu with three thousand boys and women, no matter where he goes, he will attract a lot of attention, and now there is no news at all, it is estimated that he has really gone to sea!"
"Maybe the sea is stormy, and Xu Fu and others have been buried in the ...... of the sea!"
The ministers expressed their opinions.
"Poof......
After listening to everyone's words, Xiao Zhengtai, who was sitting in the corner eating snacks, couldn't hold back and suddenly laughed.
This smile didn't matter, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Feiyu, why are you laughing all of a sudden?"
"I laugh at them for being stupid!"
Xiao Zhengtai was undisguised and said directly.
"I ......"
The faces of the ministers were white and red, and they were not light.
"Could it be that the emperor's brother knows where the big liar Xu Fu is?"
"That's nature!"
Xiao Zhengtai poured the last bite of the snack into his mouth, stood up, and paced back into the main hall.
"Then tell me, where is Xu Fu at the moment?"
Ying Fan still doesn't believe it, the people of the whole Daqin can't find Xu Fu, can he know a milk doll?
"I won't say where Xu Fu is, my son has to popularize geographical knowledge for you first!"
Xiao Zhengtai took off his backpack and unfolded the world map inside, tiling it on the main hall.
The ministers immediately gathered around and watched carefully, but none of them could understand.
In this era, everyone's mind is actually very open, and the imagination is also very rich, and there are all kinds of sayings!
Therefore, everyone is convinced of the legends of immortals, immortal islands, and immortal medicines, which just made Xu Fu and a series of warlocks take advantage of the loopholes!
If it is placed in the next life, how can you say that there is an elixir of immortality, let others buy it with money, you have to spit on you twice, and then call the police!
"Father, you see, this is Yizhou, here is Erzhou, and here is Umbrella State......!"
Xiao Zhengtai pointed to the seven continents on the map to explain Yingzheng.
Of course, he changed his name!
He is the only one in this era who has a world map and can understand the world map.
So on a whim, according to the homonym of one, two, three, four, the names of the seven continents were chosen!
It is convenient and easy to remember, and it is popular, and it will be more convenient for the children of Daqin to study in the future.
Save it like he did at the beginning, tired of scratching his ears and cheeks, and always remembering wrong!
"Brother Huang, you've been talking for a long time, where is Xu Fu?"
"Right here!"
Xiao Zhengtai's chubby little hand pointed to an archipelago opposite Huiji County and said.
"Are you sure?"
Ying Zheng looked at the position that Xiao Zhengtai was pointing at, and asked with gritted back molars.
"That's right!"
According to the folklore of later generations and incomplete records, Xu Fu should have taken 3,000 boys and girls to Fu-Sang Island, settled down, and developed the population.
Ying Zheng has been sending people to look for him in Daqin, and it would be strange if he could find it!
"Father, my son is willing to take someone to sea and capture Xu Fu back!"
In order to show himself, Yingfan took the initiative to ask for help.
"You can pull it down......!"
Before Yingzheng could reply, Xiao Zhengtai began to sneer, "Does the imperial brother know how big the wind and waves are on the sea?" Do you know what kind of wind blows in what season? Is it possible to discern the direction at sea? What should I do in the event of a thunderstorm? How to solve the problem of fresh water? β
"Don't look at the distance between Daqin and the small island on the map, but if you really sail, you can't get there in a few months, if you can't solve the fresh water, before you reach the island, the people on the boat will die of thirst!"
"This ...... This......? β
Faced with a series of questions raised by Xiao Zhengtai, Ying Fan was speechless.
He just wants to make a contribution, how do you know that there are so many things to pay attention to when going to sea?
Isn't it enough to have a few big boats?
"According to the emperor's intentions, even if we know the whereabouts of the big liar Xu Fu, there is nothing we can do?"
"That's not it, we can build a building ship first, increase the safety of going to sea, and then train the sailors, so that the soldiers can adapt to life at sea!"
"And we don't have to rush to get it back!"
Xiao Zhengtai smiled mysteriously.
"Huh? Why is that? β
This time it was Yingzheng's turn to ask.
"There should be human life here now, but they don't understand the Central Plains culture, and they haven't developed the mineral resources here."
"Don't look at these small islands, but they are very rich in mineral resources!"
"Xu Fu brought people here, it must be to vigorously develop the population and exploit mining deposits, it is better to let them develop first, and when my Great Qin has the strength to go to sea, he will directly send troops to suppress it and confiscate all mineral resources!"
After Xiao Zhengtai finished speaking, the ministers secretly gave a thumbs up.
Shade!
This kid is so yin!
Let the tiger return to the mountain, and then kill his son!
"Haha! Good! β
Even Ying Zheng readily agreed.
"Feiyu, are you a map?"
"That's right! It's called the World Map! Recorded all the locations in this world! β
"It was also given by your master?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded.
Ying Zheng became more and more curious about this master.
"Father, look here, the high-yielding potatoes and the peppers I ate last night are produced here!"
"And here, spices are abundant here!"
"And here, the four seasons are as warm as spring, and the rice ripens three times a year!"
β¦β¦
Xiao Zhengtai pointed to the states on the world map and explained to Yingzheng and the ministers.
"Rice grows three times a year? Don't the people there have endless bread to eat? β
Ying Zheng's jaw dropped in shock.
If the land of Great Qin can grow three seasons of grain a year, then Great Qin's national strength can be tripled, and all the Xiongnu and Wusun will have to surrender to Great Qin at that time!
"That's right!"
"Is there anyone here now?"
"There should be people living in it, but it's similar to the situation on Fu-so Island, they are all uneducated savages!"
"Haha! Good! In the future, my Great Qin's Iron Cavalry will conquer every piece of land on this map, so that my people of Great Qin can also have endless food! β
After reading the world map, it suddenly inspired Yingzheng's ambition.
He is not a peaceful master, seeing that there is so much land outside of Daqin, it is strange that he can't afford to be greedy!
γDing! Congratulations to the host, motivate Yingzheng, reward strength +100]
Sizzle!
Good guy, this is a direct reward of 100 points of strength.
If you change it to weight, it has to be a thousand pounds, right?
Big brother system, you're not bad!
"Uh...... Feiyu, you are a little child, it's useless to keep this map, why don't you lend him to me, go back and find someone to copy it, and then return it to you? β
"I don't!"
"I'll trade the candy with you!"
Xiao Zhengtai gave him a blank look.
I think I'm a three-year-old!
I'm five years old, okay?
"Alas......! Forget it, or do you yourself say what you want? β
After receiving Xiao Zhengtai's eyes, Ying Zheng also reacted inappropriately.
He's never seen this kid eating before, so don't fool him with caramel candy!
