"Hao...Hao, you...you didn't lie to us, are you?" Cao Shen's mind felt dry and his mouth was blank.

"What are you doing? I have already presented this map to the emperor, otherwise why would the emperor have to attack Yuezhi!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

"So that's it, no wonder!" Chen Ping murmured to himself, "I just said why the emperor suddenly attacked Yuezhi. It turned out that His Majesty already knew that there was a broader world in the West..."

"This matter is speculated among the people, but there is no clue. Even the civil and military officials in the court are still in the dark, so don't spread it. The sailing matter is very important to the future of the Qin Dynasty. However, the domestic livelihood is rampant, so I have no intention of revealing it. Originally, I have always planned to find some people to take a boat to go to the East China Sea and the South China Sea to do some long-distance tests, familiar with the control of sailboats, and also accumulate some long-distance experience. Since Cao Shen, you are interested, I will hand over this task to you. I wonder if you have the courage to lead the fleet to tens of thousands of miles away to promote the prestige of the Great Qin State, and at the same time bring back gold, silver, jewelry and specialties from Western countries!"

"Dare...Dare...Why not? It's okay if the marquis doesn't say it. As soon as he says it, Shen can't help but want to return to the East China Sea today!" Cao Shen stammered and nodded.

"Marty...I...I want to sail too..." Xiao He's eyes shining.

"Yes, Brother Xiao is the best with me. Brother Xiao is smarter and more steadier than Shen. If you have your guidance, we will definitely be able to reach the distant Western country in the future!" Cao Shen grabbed Xiao He's arm excitedly.

"I...I want to..."

"Don't think about it. Cuju Square is now being built in full swing. You have to help me take a look!" Chen Xu interrupted Liu Bang.

He finally fooled the three rogue giants to Xianyang to control them. If all three of them ran to sail together, they might soon run to somewhere to build a Han Empire to compete with the Emperor of Qin. Chen Xu, as the initiator, would have to suffer in the middle.

Therefore, Xiao He and Cao Shen can go, but Liu Bang must still stay in Xianyang.

However, the navigation cannot be accomplished overnight. It is a very large system project and a very expensive thing. Chen Xu's ability alone cannot support this huge project.

According to Chen Xu's idea, since Cao Shen likes sailing, he can build three or five sea boats to move around the Bohai Sea in the East China Sea for a few years, and wait until he has the opportunity to occupy South Korea and Japan first. In fact, it doesn't matter whether South Korea is occupied or not, and it is not a big problem. It can be reached by land, which is just a difficult thing. However, Japan has rich silver ore and sulfur, both of which are in short supply of materials in the Central Plains. As long as it occupys Japan, it will be of great help to the future development of the Qin Dynasty.

Now we already have sailing technology, rudders and compass, equipment and technologies that were only available in the Tang and Song dynasties, and also sailing telescopes that surpassed the times for nearly two thousand years, it is not difficult to find them in South Korea and Japan, which are only a few hundred or thousands of kilometers apart. It only takes a lot of time and is relatively safe, which can accumulate a lot of experience for future voyages around the world.

However, this matter is not something urgently needed to be solved at the moment. You can take it slowly. Chen Xu is not in a hurry, and he can't come too fast.

Half an hour later, Chen Ping, Xiao He, Liu Bang, Cao Shen and the other four came out of the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion with red eyes as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Chen Ping returned to the newspaper office and jumped around the room like a spring, which made Fu An, who came in and was about to report to him, was confused.

"How could Secretary Chen be so excited and restless today? Could it be that my wife didn't let you go to the bed last night and she was so suffocated?"

"Brother Fu is here just right!" Chen Ping grabbed Fu An's hand excitedly.

Fu An shivered slightly and shook his head quickly: "Secretary Chen, don't worry, this is the office..."

"Hehe, you can't refuse this!" Chen Ping laughed a few times.

Fu An's face turned pale and he quickly stepped back to the door with a few steps and said nervously: "Secretary Chen, don't make trouble, I don't have the same goodness as Long Yang!"

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment and came back to his senses and pointed at Fu An and laughed: "Okay, you Fu An, you think of someone like you. You are not interested in you, a bearded guy. Now something big happens. Go and find Shanhai Jing. I have an extremely secret thing for you to do!"

Fu An breathed a sigh of relief and said, "What do you want to do in the mountains and seas? That's a false book, what's the use for finding it?"

"Oh, you don't know, I'll tell you something... Well, forget it, the Marquis reminds you not to spread the word!"

Chen Ping said halfway but stopped, but suddenly aroused Fu An's interest. He grabbed Chen Ping's arm and smiled and said, "Brother Chen, don't keep it from being kept in a silence. Since it was said by the Marquis, I must listen, otherwise I will feel itchy and uncomfortable, and I will not even be interested in fucking the woman when I go home!"

"You can't say it, you can't say it!" Chen Ping waved his hands repeatedly.

"Brother Chen won't say it. I'll go to the Marquis to ask!" Fu An turned around and left in a bare manner.

"Don't go, don't go!" Chen Ping had no choice but to grab Fu An's arm and drag it back, smiled bitterly and whispered a few words in his ear. Fu An originally smiled proudly, but soon his face was surprised that his mouth was wide open and could stuff a big duck egg in. After Chen Ping finished speaking, he came back to his senses and jumped up and said, "Brother Chen didn't lie to me? This matter is too incredible. If you say it, others will definitely not believe it!"

"The Marquis's words will be false? But the Marquis's instructions cannot be spread out at the moment, which may cause chaos among the people. However, the Marquis is ready to build a sea ship in Langya and start the action. As a news disseminator, the newspaper must seize this opportunity in advance. When publishing these news in the newspaper at that time, it will inevitably cause shock to the world. Brother Fu doesn't want to be the leader?" Chen Ping said in a serious and serious voice.

"Since... naturally, if this matter is true, the front page of this newspaper will be occupied in the future!" Fu An's face turned red with excitement.

"That's good. There are only a few people who know about this matter at the moment. Brother Fu quickly arranged for someone to go to Langya, Donghai to go to sea for an interview. Maybe you will get clues soon. If you wait for the newspaper to publish the news about Yingzhou, I don't know how crazy people in the world will be!" Chen Ping also shook his head excitedly.

"But what does this have to do with the Shanhai Jing?" Fu An was still puzzled.

"Brother Fu doesn't know that although the Qinghe Hou Yan's Mountain and Sea Classic is a strange book written by anonymous people. It seems that it is not a mistake to judge, but he believes that this book records the mountains and rivers of ancient times. Because of the war between gods and demons, the collapse of Buzhou Mountain and the sky swelled northwest and southeast. After the flood swept overwhelmed a large number of land and plains. Therefore, the geography of Jiuzhou and the mountain and sea classics contain huge differences. Although the geography has changed, the terrain is different. There are many unsubmerged land overseas. Yingzhou is only two thousand miles away from Langya. There may be ancient immigrants on it, and there are also a large number of scarce gold and silver objects in our Central Plains. If Yingzhou can be found, it will definitely be a major geographical discovery that has never been seen in history. Brother Fu, this is an opportunity that is rare in history. My newspaper office must take the lead in this matter!"

"Then Brother Chen means..." Fu An still looked at Chen Ping in confusion.

"We will study the Shanhai Jing carefully, and then discuss it with some famous Fang family scholars who have studied the Shanhai Jing. Then write some speculative articles based on the Shanhai Jing and publish the overseas catalogs contained in the Shanhai Jing together, which will inevitably attract the public's attention and discussion. If we wait until we really find Yingzhou and bring back the unique products of Yingzhou, we can refute the theory that Shanhai Jing is not a false book. Then the world is so big, east, west, south, and north, and all are in line with Shanhai Jing..."

"Ah!" Fu An Daisy came back to his senses for a while and nodded excitedly, "No, not bad, although the Mountains and Seas Classics are all false, there are many believers. If it can be confirmed, the geography of the world will inevitably become clear. There are also those magical countries and strange objects and beasts that will inevitably be revealed. Brother Chen doesn't need to say it, so I will leave this matter to me. I will look for the oldest version of the Mountains and Seas Classics, and then start to collect and discuss articles..."

Fu An rushed away excitedly, and Chen Ping breathed a sigh of relief and sat down in front of the desk, but he was still so excited that he couldn't sit still.

This matter was told in Chen Xu's study that they could not be spread, but as the actual controller of the Daqin Metropolis Daily, how could he let go of this opportunity? Moreover, he could also guess some of the plans of the Qinghe Hou. The purpose of telling him was not aimless. He must hope that the newspaper could hype it up in advance, just wait one day to suddenly discover that there are countless wonderful countries in the east, south and north of the Great Qin. This great geographical discovery will make countless people crazy. The era of sailing that the Marquis said will come to the face. Countless warriors who explore the people will surely swarm ships to sea to find opportunities. Countless overseas treasures and rare birds and beasts will be continuously transported back to the Qin Dynasty. At that time, Xianyang, as the capital, will inevitably gather the products of all nations in the world. What a prosperous era it would be...

The more Chen Ping thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but slamming his body.

After fooling Chen Ping, Xiao He and others, Chen Xu was not idle either.

Since Cao Shen and Xiao He were willing to be the pioneer of sailing adventures, Chen Xu must make some arrangements in advance. Although the cost of sailing is huge, it is also an extremely profitable business. Once Japan is found, there may be a continuous stream of silver ore and sulfur transported back. If you can reach Indonesia and other places, there are various rare animals, plants, minerals, tropical fruits, etc., and as long as you can reach Indonesia, the time to pass through the Strait of Malacca to Central Asia and West Asia will not be too far away. If it can stimulate the enthusiasm for sailing among the people of the people of the Qin Dynasty, a vast world will be completely displayed in front of everyone in the Qin Dynasty. Once a large picture of overseas colonization is opened, it will be like opening Pandora's magic box and can no longer be covered.

As for the safety and sacrifice of navigation, it is inevitable.

The people are so restless that they can vigorously promote overseas colonization and give them the name of the princes in the name of the Qin Empire, so that the princes and nobles of the six kingdoms can find an opportunity to show their light and heat, so that they can harm the West Asians or Europeans.

OK, that's great!
