Chapter 262: The Fall of Korea

Spring goes to autumn, and the vast land of Bashu County is full of laughter.

The planting process of regenerative rice has been engraved into the hearts of farmers, and the tribes of Badi can no longer afford to resist in the face of a bumper harvest.

Not to mention the white-flowered, cloud-like cotton!

Outsiders were not allowed to enter the cotton plantations, and the prisoners picked the cotton one by one and sent it directly to the Textile Bureau, which was heavily guarded throughout the process.

This year is a rare time for Bashu County to stop development. But for the whole world, this year is still a year of war.

As soon as the spring ploughing ended, Qin Wangzheng suppressed the objections of the court and ordered Wang Ben to be the main general, and Lian Po was the deputy general to lead the troops to attack Qin.

"Qin Wangzheng officially ordered to send troops to attack Han!"

"The Qin army is brave and brave, and the soldiers are coming to Luyang."

"Nanyang Guard Teng, surrender Qin with the entire Han Nanyang County!"

In the eyes of those who don't know the inside story, Guard Teng's actions are abrupt and shocking.

As a direct result of this move, South Korea, which was already very weak, lost half of its territory overnight.

"Nanyang Shou Teng, originally surnamed Ye, after he surrendered to Qin, he personally went to Xianyang to meet Qin Wangzheng."

Qin Wangzheng did not treat him badly, but named him the Nanyang County of Qin State, and let him lead the army to attack Han.

At this time, it happened to be May.

It is unheard of to reuse the relegation of his subordinates to destroy his homeland. But the prestige of Qin Wangzheng had been established, and no one in the court could make him change his mind.

Before the autumn harvest, the guard Teng led the army to break through Xinzheng, and Han Wang'an surrendered.

When Han Fei heard that King Han had surrendered, he hid his face and wept: "The twenty-second generation of Korean inheritance, the society has fallen. ”

Many fish gave Han Fei three days off to calm his mood.

Three days later, Bashu County once again entered the busy autumn harvest.

When all the cotton had been picked and sent to the Textile Bureau, where it had been made into sheets of white and soft cotton cloth, many fish motioned for the sailors to release the water in terms of information control.

The secret of cotton cloth was bought by the merchants of Chu State for a lot of money!

The cotton, which was as white as a cloud, was actually grown from the ground!

Is this cotton? It's gold!

Merchants often used tricks, bribed them with large sums of money, hired rangers to steal, and tried their best to get cotton seeds.

I heard that cotton planting is not easy, Ding Anjun specially customized the "Cotton Planting Manual", but unfortunately this manual is too precious, even if the merchants pay a high price, they did not get a copy.

Then the merchant changed the way and sent people to steal teachers, or hired or bought old farmers who planted cotton in the name of caravans, and then they got the technology of planting cotton.

"They must not have imagined that their success is because we turned a blind eye." Liu Ji said optimistically.

Many fish said lightly: "It's not enough." It's the best thing that you steal. ”

So Bashu County began a large-scale search to arrest those merchants who did not abide by the law. On the surface, it is aimed at stealing cotton planting technology, but in fact, it is sifting through spies.

Not only that, but many fish also wrote to the king of Chu for the first time to strongly protest the theft of the state of Chu.

The first time the king of Chu received the letter, he was furious: "As a monarch, I, as the monarch, were the last to know about the cotton seeds!" Do the feudal lords take me seriously? ”

Chun Shenjun comforted: "The king is angry. We have to carry this down, and we have to encourage it a lot! ”

The king of Chu wanted to brush his sleeves away, but when he thought of a horse of cotton cloth and a horse of gold, even if the price of cotton cloth would drop due to mass production, it was also very appropriate.

Chun Shenjun added the fire again: "Compared with planting millet, planting cotton is 100 times more profitable, 1,000 times!" ”

The king of Chu thought about the piles of gold, so he suppressed his anger and replied to many fish: "Ding'an Jun is too worried, the country of Chu is already rich in kapok, and there is no need to steal cotton seeds." ”

After receiving the letter, many fish scolded the Chu State for being shameless, and the whole country was a thief, and threatened to dump cotton cloth so that the common people could also wear cotton clothes.

This is very hurtful, not only to the nobles, but also to the common people.

Originally, the linen market of Chu was squeezed by the linen of Bashu, if the price of cotton cloth was greatly reduced, not only the linen of Chu would die completely, but even the silk industry of Chu would follow in its footsteps.

The nobles of the Chu State found Shishu Tao to make trouble: "Ridiculous! How can a nobleman wear the same clothes as a pauper? ”

Whether it is the state of Chu or the state of Qin, there are detailed regulations on the color, pattern, and accessories of the common people's clothes. Even big businessmen don't dare to live too extravagantly.

The soldier Tao said with a sad face: "Ding Anjun's style of acting, you don't know it. There's no point in me interjecting. Or, you go and persuade the king of Chu? The matter has come to this, why not give An Jun some compensation? ”

The nobles thought so, and they left the relationship one after another to persuade the king of Chu. Why bother to fight for the momentary atmosphere and affect the harmony between the two countries?

In case she angers Ding Anjun, she will harass the border by sea in a fit of anger, and the gains of the Chu State will outweigh the losses!

The king of Chu gave a generous gift to many fish aggrievedly, and said that all this was a misunderstanding, and that Chu and Bashu County were surrounded by mountains and rivers, hoping not to affect the feelings of both sides.

The collection of people is short, many fish are facing the envoy of Chu, the nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes, and they reply to the king of Chu in person.

Ding'an Jun said in the letter that she planted a variety of cotton, so that the people of Bashu would no longer endure hunger and cold. But cotton cultivation is not the same as linen, and I hope that Chu will think twice. What do you think about this? The king of Chu took the letter and asked Chun Shenjun and the ministers.

Chun Shenjun read the letter over and over again: "Could it be that you are advancing by retreating?" ”

Minister of Chu: "Ding Anjun himself is planting on a large scale, and I heard that cotton stretches for thousands of miles, if there is really a problem, how can she vigorously promote it?" ”

"Not to mention anything else, what Ding Anjun took out his hand is really good. Paper, brown sugar, books, cotton, Shu brocade, and the taper cone...... "This is the aristocracy who is accustomed to the goods of Bashu County."

The king of Chu looked at Li Yuan again, and Li Yuan's sister gave birth to a son for the king of Chu in the spring of this year, which is also the only son of the king of Chu.

The king of Chu was old, and the feudal lords were not very obedient, and the king of Chu was worried that he would not live to the adulthood of his son, so he began to promote his son's own uncle.

Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "It depends on the relationship between the king and Ding Anjun. If it is a good friend, then this is the advice of the heart. If not...... The villain has understood a truth since he was a child, but if the enemy supports it, we must oppose it. ”

Li Yuan's words are very reasonable.

As for the relationship between Chu State and Ding Anjun, it is purely a relationship of stabbing each other.

Chun Shenjun hurriedly said: "I think this matter is okay, no matter what we plant, we will collect taxes." If we grow cotton, we will collect more taxes. ”

The king of Chu felt that this was the case, and the merchants wanted to plant cotton, so let them go.

However, this is next year's business, the autumn harvest has passed, and the merchants of the various vassal states can only watch with blush as Bashu County is transported to various countries by river boat.

Thanks for the recommendation vote of the stream
