Chapter 1238: The Strange Purple Star
"Your Majesty, look at it, what is this?" Ren Baqian returned to the palace and put a picture in front of the empress with great interest.
The empress looked at him with disdain, she was a person who had been to the universe, been to aliens, and chased and killed alien kings for several months.
Are you when I am a dirt bun?
Reach out and make a few gestures on the picture:
"This is the Purple Star, it doesn't look very round!"
"Where's my Great Yao?"
"Tsk, the nails are so big, in my lifetime, I must knock down the big territory in the south, how pleasing to the eye is on that side, it can be the foundation of the society. ”
"Your Majesty, it's good to be ambitious, but you still have to keep your heart in and think about this when you can beat the Unsullied God!" Ren Baqian couldn't help laughing.
Usually I watch you watch TV dramas, eat snacks, drink and play two flowers, and I don't even care about the government.
If you put your mind on your practice...... Maybe we'll be able to run amok through the Outlands by now.
"Is there no one in such a large area to the north?" the empress turned her gaze to the north, the large yellow and white area.
"There seems to be a very small number of nomads in northern Bactria but few in number. "Ren 8000. "Actually, Great Xia didn't care about the nomads in the north, just a little precaution. After all, the environment on that side is too harsh, and from the map, it is mostly deserts, rocky fields and ice fields, and there is little green, which is not suitable for survival. ”
"Native?" muttered the Empress.
Ren Baqian was slightly stunned, the empress's words made him have a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly thought of something.
Some problems that have always existed, but have not been thought about much.
This area is actually indigenous.
For example, Daxia and Dayao are all descendants of the human race who originally went north, but the Chen State was jointly established by the Daxia refugees and the local natives.
Where did these natives come from?
Why are we all human?
If the natives of the area where Chen Guo is located can still understand that this place is suitable for survival, then why are there natives in the areas of northern Daxia that are not suitable for survival? You must know that before the arrival of the human race, Daxia was already a barren place, and there was no civilization.
Ren Baqian thought about it in his heart, and when he turned around, he would send someone to Chen Guo to investigate, and the northern region would also have to investigate more, maybe he would be able to gain something.
"What are you thinking?" the empress asked when she saw Ren Baqian wandering there.
"I'm thinking about indigenous things. Ren Baqian came back to his senses and said the question he had just thought about.
"There are many things I don't know, my brother still doesn't know where he is wandering in the wilderness! There are also my father and the former emperor, and their whereabouts are also unknown......" The empress's expression has not changed much, some things have passed for a long time, and there is no hurry for a while.
Or rather, unless she was willing to leave everything behind and plunge headlong into that door, it didn't make sense for her to think more.
Ren Baqian was silent, what was behind the door that the eldest brother entered, it is still unclear.
I only know that it is a one-way door that leads to an unknown territory.
There are indeed too many doubts in this world.
......
"Did you send the probe? Did you find anything?"
A day later, Ren Baqian asked.
"The probe has already been sent, as previously calculated, the red moon is fake, just a phantom, and the probe has directly submerged into it. However, there seems to be some interference inside, and no news has come back at this time. ”
"But one thing is strange, although it is a phantom, but from the trajectory of the probe that did not enter it, there is obviously a curve, which indicates that there is a gravitational force in it. ”
"Stay tuned and let me know as soon as there is any news. ”
Although I know that the red moon is very mysterious, after all, it can be hung in the sky for tens of thousands of years without anyone noticing that it is fake, and such a strange existence is not so easy to find out after all.
But there was no progress at all, which still made Ren Baqian a little disappointed.
It can't be said that there is no progress, at least one thing is known, the existence of gravity shows that it is not a pure illusion, there must be something in it.
After a little contemplation, Ren Baqian contacted the 60,000 mountains again.
"Continue to drop signal transmitters into the door, five every hour for three days, and throw them into whatever animal you want. ”
Three days is the time for the "Eye of Heaven" to orbit the Purple Star.
Although it is not a communication satellite, it also has a certain signal reception ability, if there is still a purple star behind that door, maybe it can receive a signal, then you can find the location of the eldest brother and the emperor.
Ren Baqian didn't mention this matter to the empress for the next two days, and since he didn't receive a signal, there was no need to say it.
In addition, it was also the pictures of Zixiao Star that came one after another that attracted most of Ren Baqian's attention.
"You've been watching it for a day. The empress walked into a large hall and saw Ren Baqian standing in front of a wall with pictures hanging on it.
"Are there flowers on it?"
"It's weird!" Ren Baqian frowned.
The other side of the Purple Star is very strange, there is no large land, only a few islands, the ocean is almost black, and five huge whirlpools are distributed on the sea surface like the mouths of giant beasts, swallowing immeasurable sea water every second.
Even if the satellite shoots from a high altitude, you can clearly see the existence of the five whirlpools, and you can see their size.
"The five vortices have never changed, and they have not moved. Ren Baqian said in a deep voice.
"And the distribution of these five whirlpools, just four in the four corners, and one in the middle, as if they were arching guards. I suspect it's not natural!"
Ren Baqian was a little unsure.
After all, the wonders of nature are sometimes difficult to guess with ordinary people's minds.
"Whatever the reason, you don't have any other way than to think about it yourself, so what's the use of thinking about it?" said the empress sharply.
Ren Baqian opened his mouth, and this knife was stabbed to the point.
"It's better to find a way to make more money, Tu Wan came to me again, the money invested in 60,000 mountains every year is too much, even if you knock a sum from several other countries, it is difficult to support. I think the lottery is a good way to do it!"
"It's all your people, isn't it okay to find a way to make money?" Ren Baqian was still thinking about things, such as the black color of the sea, which was originally a problem, but these things were thrown aside by the empress.
"Since they are my people, I have difficulties, should they have the money to pay? Also, those families and wealthy merchants have amassed a lot of money over the years, especially the largest ones, if it weren't for their peace, I would have wanted to take the knife and get it myself. Since they are so peaceful, it is better to introduce an inheritance tax......"
Ren Baqian smashed his mouth, crying and laughing: "Then force them to rebel, and you can take the knife yourself?"
This is Dayao, not the earth, not those modern countries. Now that Da Yao's development is radical enough, if the inheritance tax is really introduced, I'm afraid those courtiers will jump up first.
"Or can we reduce the investment in the 60,000 mountains? After all, now that the sea route is open, the investment is much smaller, and the transportation time is not too long. ”
"No, there is turbulence in the depths of the coast, and boats can only be taken in the direction of near the shore, and the volume of transportation cannot be raised. The investment of 60,000 mountains must continue, not only not decrease, but even increase. Ren Baqian categorically vetoed.
"Collecting inheritance tax is not as good as collecting wealth tax, which is divided by family wealth, and families with an annual income of 100,000 yuan pay taxes according to a certain percentage. The higher the income, the more wealth, and the more you pay, at least this is to tell those people that the country needs money, and if you have money, you should cut more. ”
"Then the wealth tax!" the empress said.
The last thing she fears is that someone dares to rebel.
