Chapter 473: Seeing Off
The plane rumbled, and the powerful force supported more than 200 people across a distance of 7,000 miles. When the rising sun in the east was blushing, three huge planes just arrived in Anyang City.
Prince Zhao Ming and Zhong Shuling Ji Buxian looked through the porthole, just in time to see Anyang City bathed in the rays of the rising sun.
There are many high-rise buildings, the lights are bright, the roads are vertical and horizontal, and the long trains are "slowly" moving.
There are still many passenger planes flying in the sky. On the sea in the distance, many ships can be seen faintly shuttling.
"Is this Anyang?" Zhao Ming and Ji Buxian looked at each other, quietly observing this unheard of and unseen scene. If it is not prepared in advance, everyone will definitely shout: Mirage!
Li Yuanming smiled at the side, "Everyone, if you want, I can lead you to visit the Kingdom of Shang.
Anyang City is nothing here, and Beidou City, which is under construction, will be even more prosperous. It's a pity that Beidou City has just broken ground, and it may take three to five years before it can be fully completed. "
Ji Buxian suddenly laughed, "Since you have said so, Yuan Ming, I will definitely come back in five years."
The two talked for a night, and they became a little familiar, and their words were no longer particularly unfamiliar.
Prince Zhao Guoguang suddenly turned his head and asked: "Mr. Li Yuanming, this city looks beautiful, but it is also very fragile, right? A master of the transformation stage can destroy the entire city!"
This is really a good question, Ji Buxian also looked at Li Yuanming.
Li Yuanming smiled confidently: "Some time ago, Qi Weizong of Qi State, a master of the transformation stage, came to provoke him, and indeed caused great damage.
However, Anyang City is fragile, and Qi State is even more fragile than Anyang City. "
confidence! Domineering! This is Li Yuanming's posture. Qi State dared to destroy Anyang City, so we destroyed Qi State.
Ji Buxian secretly wiped off his cold sweat, what the hell, no wonder the Kingdom of Shang wiped out the Kingdom of Qi like a convulsion, so the root cause is here. But Li Yuanming's simple sentence showed another meaning: don't mess with us!
But then a little anger rose from Ji Buxian's heart - is this a warning to Zhao Guo? How bold! Someone dared to speak to Zhao Guo like this.
But after getting angry, Ji Buxian immediately adjusted his mentality - destroying a country with a radius of 4,000 miles in ten days, even Zhao Guo could not do it. The Kingdom of Shang is indeed qualified to be arrogant.
The plane landed slowly at the military airport, and a row of large buses drove up to send more than 200 people from Zhao Guo to Fude Mountain Resort for resettlement. After being so busy for more than an hour, Prince Zhao Ming and Ji Buxian, as well as a few guards, finally came to Anyang City Lord's Mansion and met Li Xian.
Not to mention the surprise in Ji Buxian's heart along the way, only after entering this city can he feel the difference here. The streets are full of flat cuts, but everyone has ruddy complexions and natural smiles, and the cheerful voices of children fill every corner.
In addition, the spacious and bright streets, forest-like high-rise buildings, staggered viaducts, and fashionable urban beauties gave Ji Buxian, the emperor's secretary, a sense of inferiority for a bumpkin.
"Damn it, how did the Kingdom of Shang come about!" Ji Buxian began to complain weakly in his heart.
When he saw Li Xian and saw that Li Xian, the virtuous king, had a cut-cut hair and was dressed in casual clothes, Ji Buxian stared a little-shouldn't he be dressed up for reception?
Shouldn't the majesty of the king be set off with prosperous clothes, gorgeous crowns, and mysterious halls?
But right now, there are only spacious and bright ordinary halls, and the halls are full of casual business attire with thick cuts. There are also a few female officers here, but these female officers only have short hair at the ear level - they have learned Xia Qingqing's hair style.
Seeing such a scene, Ji Buxian hesitated, looked down at his robe, touched his long hair tied up, looked at the clothes of the people around him, let alone the awkwardness in his heart.
What's more important is the layout of the scene, two rows of seats, simple and plain, and there are no flowery maids and guards around.
After Li Yuanming and Ji Buxian sat down in a daze, Li Xian and other Shang Kingdom officials also sat down, and then began to speak.
Li Xian didn't speak, Xu Ren cut to the chase: "Welcome friends from Zhao State. I wonder if you are here for a simple visit? Or are you here to seek cooperation?"
"I'm here to visit and study, and I'm also here to seek cooperation." Ji Buxian said modestly. After a short pause, Ji Buxian continued: "But when I came here, I was a little dazzled, and I didn't know where to start.
If possible, we would like to visit for a few days first. I don't know if it is possible? "
"Welcome to visit. It just so happens that the envoys from the Yue Kingdom are returning today, so let's go to the beach to see him off."
then let's go.
Vietnam? After thinking for a while, Ji Buxian thought of this country. Surprised, the influence of the Kingdom of Shang has already affected the Kingdom of Yue?
After the group arrived at the beach, Ji Buxian was surprised several times along the way. Along the way, I saw viaducts, more railways and highways, and a huge shipyard. Finally, I saw the endless harbor and countless ships coming and going in and out of the harbor.
At this moment, there is a huge fleet in the port, ready to go. Above this huge fleet, the flags of "Yue Guo" are flying.
The first three big ships were like small hills made of steel. The waves rolled over, but the ships remained motionless.
The ten smaller ships that followed were equally steady.
The gun barrels on these ten large ships were ferocious, and they were not "peace envoys" at first glance.
Behind these thirteen warships, there were more than 30 ships, large and small. These ships were relatively bloated, and their flags were also varied, obviously the flags of some commercial groups.
There was a sea of people on the pier, and there were a few people waiting in the middle. It was the Crown Prince Yueming of the Yue Kingdom, the Prime Minister Gou Yuanli and others.
Xu Ren went up to say hello, "Have a safe trip. I also brought some extremely friends over to have a look."
Xu Ren introduced it, and Ji Buxian stepped forward: "Hello everyone, I am Ji Buxian, and I am Zhao Guozhong Shuling from the Central Committee of Yingzhou. This is Zhao Ming, the crown prince of our country."
Gou Yuanli was shocked, even the mighty Zhao Kingdom came to Shang Kingdom to visit?
According to the general tradition, a big country like Zhao would never "send envoys" to foreign countries at all, and would only send one or two messengers to deliver letters to the surrounding small countries to "go to court".
Now, the country of Zhao has traveled thousands of miles... Yes, it is surprising that it is the Kingdom of Shang who came from thousands of miles away.
But after being surprised, he still made an introduction, and the two sides got to know each other a little bit. But because Xu Ren was by the side, it was inconvenient for the two sides to say something.
Xu Ren stood by the side with a smile all the time, but didn't leave! Want to whisper? no way!
Seeing that Xu Ren refused to leave, Gou Yuanli could only smile helplessly at Ji Buxian, "We have time to leave, and we will welcome you to Yue as a guest when we have time. We will welcome you with the most grand etiquette."
Standing on the pier, watching the huge fleet of the Yue Kingdom start slowly and then quickly go away, Zhao Ming, Prince Zhao Ming, Zhongshu Ling Ji Buxian and related personnel were all thoughtful.
If there is anything that can best express the strength of industrial power, the giant ship cannon is definitely one of the representatives. Even Ji Buxian couldn't help sighing as he watched the big steel ship that looked like a hill sail away through the wind and waves. Just looking at the performance, you can make people feel the word "powerful".
But as the prime minister of an old empire, Ji Buxian has his own ideas—this kind of warship may be huge, but it is not necessarily powerful; Will it be an expensive toy?
After thinking and thinking, Ji Buxian finally had to ask Xu Ren this question.
"If you buy a few warships, you will know the situation." Xu Ren answered irrelevantly. Want to be informed? It's easy to say, buy a few warships, and you will know everything.
Ji Buxian was dumbfounded——don't be so tasteless, okay, I'm just asking a question, and you let me buy a warship worth tens of millions of taels of gold. I know that you Shang Kingdom attaches great importance to business, but you can't do this!
"Okay, I'm going back. You'll be staying at the Fude Mountain Resort for the time being. It doesn't matter how long you want to stay." Xu Ren was about to leave after speaking.
"Wait, you have to leave a guide!" Ji Buxian grabbed Xu Ren, and I said, why is your Shang Kingdom so unreliable. Li Yuanming promised to be a guide before, but Li Yuanming is nowhere to be seen now.
"There are professional folk guides." Xu Ren stopped, and suddenly shouted to the side, "Is there a guide? There are tourists from Zhao country here, big fat sheep."
"I, I..." Many people jumped out of the surrounding immediately.
Big fat sheep... Ji Buxian looked at Xu Ren's back foolishly. I was completely dumbfounded, who can tell me that this guy is actually the Grand Master of the Shang Kingdom? Is there any master who does this? Let's have fun!
Fortunately, Shang Kingdom's guide was very good, and the subsequent visits opened the eyes of people in Zhao Kingdom; Ji Buxian also gradually understood the deep meaning of Xu Ren's actions. Official tour guides always have various inconveniences and are suspected of surveillance, but private tours do not have these problems.
Of course, this can also show the confidence and tolerance of Shang Kingdom.
"This is the real power! Not only materially, but also spiritually." Ji Buxian was thoughtful, and continued to use this to teach the prince.
…………
It is said that since the establishment of the Kingdom of Shang, the east of Yingzhou has never been peaceful.
The war between the state of Jin and the state of Liu was still going on; but under such circumstances, representatives from the surrounding countries gathered in the state of Jin, including representatives from the states of Liu and Lu. Everyone discusses the strategy to check and balance the Shang Kingdom.
Destroying the Qi Kingdom in ten days frightened the surrounding countries—damn it, if the Shang Kingdom suddenly went crazy and wanted to destroy us, the surrounding countries would not be able to support us in time!
But the negotiations between more than a dozen countries are destined to be protracted; now it is only an intentional negotiation, and the people who come here are not very high-level.
However, when the "United Nations General Assembly" was held in Jin State, in Cai State, a political and shady deal was going on.
Wang Shen concealed his identity and pretended to be the eldest son of the Qingquan Group and Wang Linyuan's entourage. After accidentally letting Kong Xiang's Nascent Soul go away last time, Wang Shen kept a low profile. This time, just in time for this task.
"No matter what, Zhu Chongde must be rescued. If necessary, he can only be rescued." This is what Li Xian said to Wang Shen.
Only save Zhu Chongde, which means that other, Zhu Chongde's family members don't need to worry about it. Of course, this is the most extreme case.
As for Wang Linyuan, Wang Linyuan is in contact with Huang Fu's soldiers, and wants to "purchase" Zhu Chongde's family from Huang Fu.
Of course, political purchases are not limited to simple wealth, but also include many political transactions.
Huang Fu's soldiers relayed Huang Fu's words:
"Valentines are allowed, there are three conditions:
First, you are going to rob the prison and make an iron case that Zhu Chongde's family betrayed Cai Guo and took refuge in the Shang Kingdom.
Second, when Ye Weirong is in charge of the emperor's safety, we will provide convenience for robbing the prison.
Third, one million taels of gold. "
"Impossible!" Wang Linyuan denied, "Rescue Zhu Chongde, prove Zhu Chongde's 'treason' fact, bring down Ye Weirong by the way, and solve Master Huang's last two political enemies in one fell swoop, you should pay a million taels of gold!
For our Kingdom of Shang, there are many talents, and there is no shortage of Zhu Chongde.
But for adults, there must be a "definite" evidence of treason to bring down Zhu Chongde and Ye Weirong by the way.
And as long as these two people are brought down, Cai Guo will be able to speak for himself. Such great profits, my lord, don't make a mistake. "
The two sides constantly quarreled, but it was also a negotiation. Finally finally removed the third condition. But this time, Huang Fu also had a heart, "In ten years, you can't reuse Zhu Chongde, and you can't let Zhu Chongde speak indiscriminately!"
"Okay!" Wang Linyuan agreed. The purpose of this incident is very clear, which is to rescue Zhu Chongde.
