Chapter 1042

Yumen City.

This small city built by Cao Cao on the Huangsha Gobi is now famous all over the world.

The whole world knows that there is a Yumen Gate, and beyond the Yumen Gate is the mysterious and rich Middle-Earth Continent.

This city is full of traffic every day. It is completely a trading city and a logistics capital.

All those who go from China to foreign countries on the Silk Road pass through here. The throughput starts at 100 tons per day, don't look too small, this is ancient times. In the whole world, the scale of land is very large.

Foreign businessmen rarely appear in this city, because they have already traded their goods in Loulan and returned.

This is the law enacted by Cao Cao, king of the Western Regions. All foreign caravans trade with him, and all middle-earth caravans pass freely.

It is precisely because there are too many merchants that this city develops extremely fast.

The main business of the residents in the city is inns and restaurants.

"Martial law, martial law! Everyone, exit the road immediately and turn to other gates to enter the city..."

A warrior leaping horse galloped here, it was Xiahou Shang, the new generation of the Xiahou family.

Immediately, a large number of soldiers appeared in the city gate, whether they were merchants or local residents, they saw that there must be something wrong, and they cooperated very much. They walked around the city and went to other city gates to enter the city.

As Xiahoushang left, Xiahoudun came with Liu Bei.

The three Liu Bei brothers, like the eldest girl, sat in the carriage and could only lift the window curtains to look out.

After entering the city, Liu Bei was really like grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, seeing nothing.

"Second brother and third brother, look quickly, so many merchants from Middle Earth all come from Yuan Tan's territory. No wonder Yuan Tan has so much money and food to fight the war..."

Liu Bei sighed again and again. When it comes to war, the money and food are as important as the generals.

"Mr. Xuande, I have sent someone to inform Meng De in advance. I think Meng De will be very willing to see you." Xiahou Dun said.

Liu Bei was very excited when he heard this, "If Duke Cao counterattacks the Central Plains, my brother would like to be a pawn."

Xiahou Dun laughed when he heard it. Speaking of which, a few years ago, the Cao family and Xiahou family wanted to counterattack the Central Plains. But in the past few years in the Western Regions, I really got to know the world. Instead of fighting internally, it is better to expand the territory for the descendants of Yan and Huang, and then go home to worship ancestors or something,

Also scenery, history will always remember them.

When dynasties change, only those who really do things for the descendants of Yan and Huang will be remembered forever by future generations.

I also understood Cao Cao's thoughts.

Moreover, it was Yuan Tan who let them go at the beginning, and it can be said that it was with his help that they ruled the Western Regions.

So there is not so much hatred, but to do something for Middle Earth together. Wouldn't it be nice to go back to my hometown and take care of my life when I'm old and can't do it anymore.

Liu Bei didn't know the inside story of these things, and he couldn't understand the minds of Cao Cao and Yuan Tan who only wanted to restore the country.

After Liu Bei finished speaking, there was a coughing sound from behind, and he turned around and said, "Master, we are going to see Cao Cao soon, and we will treat you when the time comes."

Fazheng nodded weakly, he couldn't help Liu Bei in his current state, it was up to Liu Bei to make up his own mind.

...

at the same time.

Near the most luxurious inn in the city center, people stopped and pointed at the specially armored guards at the door.

"I heard that this place was covered by a crooked nut."

Yuan Tan called it Wai Nuo Ren, and he followed suit, and they all followed him.

"Look, look, the red tassel on this helmet is like a brush for cleaning the toilet."

"This shield is really big, and its quality is really good. Do they all use short swords as weapons?"

"You don't understand this. With such a big shield in your hand, of course the short sword is more flexible. Moreover, I have seen their long weapons, mainly spears."

"These Roman soldiers are all very powerful."

Inside the inn.

Galen Fabius from Rome was outraged.

You must know that he is the representative of the most powerful family in the world who came to China, but the high-level officials in the Western Regions looked down on him and refused to welcome him.

In fact, he was not an ordinary Roman businessman, but a senior Roman tribune, equivalent to a general in Middle Earth. Secretly also carrying the commission of the emperor Severus, the high-level Romans really want to know what a country that can manufacture magical items looks like.

Since the Big Three in Rome, who in the world has not bowed to Rome? Given his family background, he is the most prominent type of person anywhere, but when he comes here, he is treated like a countryman and called a foreigner.

"Are they the ignorant country folks who don't even know the international conventions?" Fabius took the wine jar from the hand of the beautiful maid and took a few sips directly without a cup.

These maids are also exquisite products brought from Rome. The Romans always took women with them when they traveled far, even when they went to war. There will be a special miscellaneous camp to accompany the soldiers for the soldiers to enjoy while resting.

He wanted to use the goods as a cover as a businessman to enter Middle-earth to investigate the national situation, and he wanted to report the State of the Union in the Senate. But Cao Cao, the king of the Western Regions, said that people can go, but goods cannot.

Without goods, a group of foreigners must be conspicuous in Middle-earth.

At this time, Deacon Rubio came, "Master, I heard that the eldest son of the Yuan family has arrived and is having a banquet with the king of the Western Regions in the mansion. He is the most powerful person in Middle-earth."

Fabius frowned, "The most powerful is not the emperor, but the king of Tang?"

Rubio said: "Yuan Tan is the future emperor. He and Cao Cao and Liu Bei are the Big Three in China. Now that Cao Cao and Liu Bei have been defeated by him, they will all belong to him in the future."

Fabius nodded. Of course, investment must be in potential stocks. According to Zhongtu, icing on the cake is worse than sending charcoal in the snow.

Ingratiate yourself while you are not yet the emperor.

This trip to Middle-earth is related to whether he can enter the Senate after returning. You must know that it is not easy to come to Middle-earth once, and none of those people are willing to suffer. Fabius took this task on the condition that he be supported to enter the Senate after returning.

"Then the arrival of the eldest son of the Yuan family is an opportunity for us."

Fabius walked back and forth twice, pondering for a while, "I have to please him about entering Middle-earth. But we can't lose the reputation of our Fabius family. These Middle-earths look down on us. Foreigner, bring our precious things from Rome and let them see them, and then they will know the strength of Rome."

When he came to Middle-earth this time, he brought a lot of things. The most precious ones were a set of crystal cups, a sword of Caesar, and an oil painting "The Great City of Rome".

The crystal cup is a good example of industrial prosperity, and those two are drinking...  

Caesar's sword is invincible, a sharp weapon of magic weapon, which can represent the force of Rome. When the time comes, cut off all of Zhongtu's weapons. According to Zhongtu's words, you are all chickens and dogs, wouldn't it be beautiful?

And the oil painting "The Great City of Rome" is like "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival", which can reflect the culture of Rome and the prosperity of civilization.

Moreover, paintings are like words, and they are better than words in many aspects. After all, it takes years of study to understand text, but painting has no borders and can be understood at a glance.

He has done research, and all countries in the world have paintings, and the oil paintings of Rome are the most realistic paintings in the world.

It seems that the three-piece suit that Fabius wears also has some ulterior motives.

"Go, take these maids with you."

Fabius took action, and after he succeeded in pretending to be aggressive, he would frighten the eldest son Cao Cao, and then let the maid dance a dance, which could be given to them. Beat a stick and give a sweet date, this is the Enwei of Rome.

Rubio secretly gave a thumbs up. With his master's scheming, he will definitely make a fortune after entering the Senate. You must know that after many tribunes entered the Senate, they were calculated to death by those politicians, and Fabius didn't just lead soldiers to fight.
