Chapter 1152 The Quartet Comes to He Hongwu Driving a Crane
There is a kind of smoke called the Longevity Smoke of the Qin Dynasty.☆→It is the first time that smoke has appeared in the world since ancient times. Its only consumer country is the ancient Roman Empire.
Later generations had all kinds of cigarettes, but in ancient times, there was only one of the Daqin Changshou cigarettes.
The longevity of the Qin Dynasty is refreshing, and people will be greatly excited when they smoke. They will be in a state of eternity. Another world in the illusion is really what people yearn for.
In order to open up the Roman market, absorb the wealth of Rome for thousands of years, the Qin Dynasty increased its publicity efforts. So much so that the Romans generally believed that the Qin Dynasty's longevity cigarettes had the effect of adding blessings and longevity. They were essential things to live at home, travel, and meet guests.
In this way, the Qin Changshou Tobacco was sold well in Rome, and within half a year, it drew countless wealth. Many Roman peasants went bankrupt, the civilians lived in a difficult situation, the property of citizens was reduced by half, and the wealth of aristocrats shrank.
The Romans were generally pale and thin, and there were riots such as beating, smashing, looting and other riots in various parts of Rome that were unable to get mad and went crazy, and their effectiveness began to appear.
The Triumph Severu was worthy of being a great Roman emperor. He smashed his palace into pieces, put it in a cage as a gorilla, and successfully quit smoking after several months. In this way, under the leadership of the Triumph Emperor, Rome began a vigorous anti-smoking campaign.
Emperor Triumph banned smoking nationwide, searched nationwide, and destroyed all the Qin Changshou cigarettes. He also ordered all provinces, cities, towns, and forced addicts to quit smoking.
At the same time, block the source.
Emperor Triumph confiscated the tobacco of the Daqin merchants in China, and sent all Roman fleets to form a general fleet to command in a unified manner. Blocked the Persian Gulf that entered the Babylonian region of Rome, entered the Mande Strait in the Red Sea in Egypt, and entered the Strait of Gibraltar in the Mediterranean. When everything was discovered, the Daqin merchant ship was confiscated immediately. The tobacco was destroyed on the spot. All other goods were confiscated, which was to compensate the damage of Daqin tobacco to the Romans.
For a time, the merchants of the Qin Dynasty lost silk, porcelain, tea and other goods worth hundreds of millions of gold coins, and suffered heavy losses. According to the Treaty of Good Neighborliness and Friendship signed by the Roman Empire and the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty enjoyed "citizen" treatment in Rome. As a result, the merchants of the Qin Dynasty complained one after another, but were beaten by the Roman officials and expelled from the country.
The merchants of the Qin Dynasty could only cry to their country about the unfair treatment they suffered in Rome.
Finally, the angry Triumph Emperor wanted to declare war on the Qin Dynasty, but was stopped by Caesar, Pompei and others. Because the Roman army also needed to quit smoking. At present, it was impossible to launch a large-scale war on the Qin Dynasty.
So, the furious Triumph Emperor sent the empire elders to glorify Sempronius, Tiberius of the Tiberius family, to negotiate with Daqin.
Emperor Triumph roared: "Tell Emperor Hongwu that Rome will cancel the "citizen" treatment of the Qin people. The trade of the Qin Dynasty will be subject to heavy taxes. It is not allowed to send tobacco to Rome, but you must smoke it yourself. If you are disobedient, Rome will declare war on the Qin Dynasty!"
The veteran Tiberius immediately led the envoys out of the country. The official road of Daqin was well built. Although there were no trains and the planes were fast, it was not stopped day and night. It was like driving a car and arrived in a month.
At this time, the Qin Dynasty was in the midst of a festive festival.
The 1st year of Hongwu. February 1st, National Day.
Early in the morning, Emperor Hongwu Qin Feng got up with his beloved concubines. Under the service of his beloved concubines, he put on a brand new dragon robe. Then he came to the Golden Palace and accepted the worship of all officials.
All officials paid homage, and then Xu Shu, as the chief of the Military Affairs Office, took out the entrustments from various places and read them out.
And the civil servants’ squad….
"I'll talk about this matter tomorrow," said Guo Jia.
Pang Tong was a little anxious, "Roman has been riding on his neck and shit, wait for tomorrow?"
Guo Jia covered his mouth and whispered: "Your Majesty is happy today, don't let it go. Everything that should be done is gone, and it's not the same as this day."
"Okay..." Pang Tong accepted the memorial, stuffed his hands into the cuffs, and looked at Xu Shu who was leaving the shift.
Xu Shu recited in turn: "The primitive people on the Southeast Islands Reserve, wish the Gods and Kings the blessings of the sea."
"Okay, okay. Thanks to these "Filipinos", the ancestors of the "Indones" still remember me." Qin Feng was very pleased and said, "How is the trade with the reserve?"
Old Jia Xu immediately came out and said, "Prince, please rest assured, it is still the same price as before. These primitive people collected gold, silver and gems on the island, a basket of knives."
"Okay, okay," Qin Feng said even more gratifyingly: "There are many undiscovered places in the world. In the future, more indigenous people will be encountered. The Military Affairs Office will set a system and trade in this proportion."
"Abide by the order!" Old Jia Xu remained silent.
The ministers were trembling and thought to themselves that the emperor was so dark. A basket of gems and knives had never been sold forever. However, I like it. In the eyes of the ministers, it would be better for the natives to be slaves. If you can't create sharp blades here, you will use bone sticks. A basket of gems that are worthless to you will exchange for a knife. It is already very cheap.
"The Primitive Man Protection Area..., ah..." Emperor Hongwu's eyes were a little wet. In the face of safeguarding national interests, his personal preferences should be put aside. Although this is a pity to the Primitive Man, Emperor Hongwu still has to do it.
Xu Shu was righteous, but the concept of the country became more and more profound. He would never refuse such a thing that was beneficial to the empire. He continued to recite: "The people in the Southern Barbarians wish the Southern Barbarian King a lifetime."
"Okay, okay!" Qin Feng was really happy and said, "The three brothers of the Meng family are good. The Southern Barbarians are a pearl of our Great Qin."
Xu Shu continued to recite: "People in the grassland area, wish the great Genghis Khan for generations."
Qin Feng nodded with relief, "Be careful to protect the vegetation, do not overgraze, and must not sandify..."
Xu Shu continued to recite: "People in the Western Regions wish Emperor Hongwu as vast as sand."
Qin Feng laughed and said, "I just said I don't want sand, but sand came here.
The ministers laughed together.
Xu Shu also recited: "The people of the Kushan area, wish the king of the kings good fortune, longevity and health!"
"Okay, okay!" Qin Feng was very pleased.
Xu Shu also recited: "Respite the people of the four provinces and regions, and wish the kings of all kings to be with the true God."
Qin Feng implemented religious freedom, so he was deeply loved by the people of the religious area. Of course, cults should be severely cracked down.
Xu Shunian stopped here.
Emperor Hongwu asked, "Yuanzhi, what's going on?"
Xu Shu said awkwardly: "Master. It may be because of regional reasons. Some words are used inappropriately. I will change it."
"No, no..." Emperor Hongwu waved his hand and said, "The Qin Dynasty is vast and rich in resources. The court should treat all ethnic groups equally. The nation has its own characteristics. Think truthfully..."
Xu Shu reluctantly said, "I wish the Yinzhou subcontinent and the southeastern Jiaozhou to "fight against the Buddha" and to be promoted to the Buddha's kingdom when the merits are complete... and the cranes are driven by the cranes!"
"What!" The ministers were terrified, "Joy the West! Isn't this cursing the emperor with his braids?"
Emperor Hongwu ruled 40 million square kilometers of land. In the future, the Qin explorers landed in Oceania and established towns in the Americas, the Qin land would expand. Listen to the later Southeast Islands, endless grasslands, Central Asia, subcontinent, and Southeast Continent to congratulate the National Day. Emperor Hongwu was really happy from the bottom of his heart.
However, it was actually a journey to the west, and Qin Feng was furious, "Is this a memorial from Lu Su?"
"No, no!" Xu Shu said hurriedly: "This is a memorial to the Buddhist Sect Master Kashyapa** representing the Buddhist Sect area."
Qin Feng was stunned and barely calmed down, thinking that if it were that boy Lu Su, I would have to twist his head off.
Pang Tong hurriedly said, "The Emperor. Journey to the West is a good meaning of being with Buddha in the Buddhist scriptures. The folk customs are different, and the folk customs are different..."
All officials were in a daze.
When Lao Jiaxu shook his eyes, all the officials immediately bowed down. He shouted: "People from all over China wish me the great Qin Kingdom a prosperous country. I wish the emperor a blessing as good as the East China Sea and a long life as the South Mountain!"
There is nothing that makes Emperor Hongwu happier than the common people. So Emperor Hongwu forgot what happened just now. He said happily: "I will write an imperial edict. In the future, theaters and theaters will be open for free on National Day. Officials will go to comfort the elderly and widowed people and the families of martyrs... I will have a military parade next year..."
Qin Feng’s military parade was not for himself, but to show the world that the strength of the Qin Emperor team is the backing of the Chinese nation. Anyone who bullies us will not be afraid of anyone who bullies us. We will fight whoever we are.
In the past, Qin Feng had no time or financial resources for many years. Now, the world is peaceful, and there are high-yield crops. They dumped Rome again...
"Report..."
When all the officials were happy, Zhang Ping, the chief guard, quickly walked to the hall and said, "I will report to the emperor, the Roman envoy, and the senate Senate, Sempronius Tiberius, who has come outside the Yedu City and requests to enter the city."
All officials were stunned.
"Oh? It's coming so quickly!" Qin Feng thought about what Rome sent an envoy to do?
Under the Longtai, Pang Tongyi winked and said, "It's coming so quickly!"
"I thought it would take a few days!" The military advisor of the Military Affairs Office whispered to him together and signaled to report it quickly.
On this side, Pang Tong knelt out and shouted: "My minister, Pang Tong, I have a report!"
Qin Feng suddenly had a bad premonition and signaled Dequan to bring it up.
The general manager Dequan ran all the way, and went up five feet from the dragon platform to another five feet. This is ten feet, thirty meters, ten floors. He held his breath, did not dare to breathe, and knelt down.
When Qin Feng was watching, the officials in the grand hall whispered.
"Bastard!" An angry shout echoed in the hall, and Emperor Hongwu rose up in anger and slapped the table. The bead curtain in front of him made a crackling sound.
"The emperor calmed down..." The officials panicked and knelt all over the ground.
At this time, outside Yecheng City, the people entering and leaving stopped to watch the Roman envoys.
These Romans were all curly hair, sprinkled with gold and powder, and were wearing Toga, a Roman robe. The entourage was wearing ordinary robes, and Tiberius wore an old robe with gold and purple edges, which was 6 meters long and 2 meters wide. Without tailoring, it was the best etiquette to surround the body. The red cloak behind the back, and the head exposed on his shoulders and covered with leather armor, was very imposing.
The people of the Qin Dynasty were watching them, and they were looking at Yedu City stupidly.
As the elder of the empire and the head of the envoy, Tiberius opened his mouth wide, revealing his red mouth and white teeth, and his blue eyes were already glaring. He looked at the majestic Yedu wall and said in a lost voice: "What a big city!"
"What a prosperous city!"
"There are so many people!" The followers all lost their voices. Suddenly, they were lost in the prosperous capital of the Qin Dynasty, thinking that they had come to the other side of the sky, like a legendary sacred city.
The sound of horse hooves sounded, and the waves were rippling. Zhang Ping rushed over with a team of imperial guards. Herodor's horses were pointed and said, "The Emperor of Qin, Xuan Roman envoys met!"
When Tiberi saw the person coming, he was shocked and closed his mouth. After the translation and explanation, he followed Zhang Ping into the city.
At the city gate, the enormous after entering Tiberi couldn't help but look up, and then he found that the huge city gate was as high as the most majestic hall in Rome. With the sharp eyes of the Qin army guarding the garrison, he hurriedly calmed down, but whispered to the attendant beside him: "How many soldiers can attack such a majestic city?"
The attendant was an elite army. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "If you fight head-on, you will need at least 500,000 troops."
"Five Roman armies fought a city! Oh yo..." Tiberi shivered and thought to himself that the five Roman armies could sweep across the Mediterranean. He walked along the way and saw the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty. The folk customs that respected literature and martial arts were almost a combination of the Greeks and Spartans. This civilized and martial nation is the most difficult to conquer.
