Seven hundred and seventieth eight chapters big bet

"I understand, everything you said is completely reasonable...!"

Ying Zheng nodded firmly and continued: "It's just that I don't believe this is true!"

In one sentence, Xiao Zhengtai almost became so angry that he vomited blood!

"I've never seen what's going on in the sky, so you can't just say that the earth is round, right?"

Ying Zheng hugged his shoulders and looked like I wouldn't believe anything you say.

Ying Fei put his hands on his hips angrily and took a few deep breaths to suppress the small universe that was about to burst out in his heart. "Well, father, don't you believe it? How about we play something big?"

"Play big? What do you mean?"

Ying Zheng asked suspiciously.

Feng Quji and others stared eagerly as if they were watching the excitement!

"Don't you believe that the earth is round? Then send a team out and sail in one direction. If they finally return to Da Qin, it will prove that your father's statement is right! On the contrary, if the earth is square

, then this team will only go further and further away and never come back!"

Ying Feiyu said with a smile.

In this era, the best way to prove the theory of a round earth is to sail around the world!

Apart from that, there is nothing else!

"Well, His Highness the Crown Prince is right!"

"Yes! If the earth is really round, then this team will definitely come back, which will break the previous traditional concept!"

"Yes, it is indeed a good method...!"

Before Ying Zheng could express his stance, Feng Quji and others nodded with joyful agreement.

"Why does it have to sail when sending a team out? Isn't it possible to go by land?"

While raising questions, Ying Zheng also glared at several old guys fiercely.

After serving as an official for his whole life, he turned against that boy in the end!

Judging from their current state, if the boy said that farts smell good, I think they would all believe it!

"It really doesn't work! Most of the environment we live in is the ocean. If we want to circle the earth, we must sail!"

Ying Feiyu said with a serious face.

"Most of it is ocean? How come we didn't realize it?"

Ying Zheng looked at the other people in confusion, and everyone kept shaking their heads.

They have lived in Daqin almost all their lives. How have they ever been to the sea?

Some of them have never even seen what the sea looks like!

"My father has never sailed around the world, so how do you know how big the sea is?"

Scumbag's attitude at this time reminded Ying Feiyu of the frog in the well.

People! It’s better to go out more and increase your knowledge!

"..."

In one sentence, Ying Zheng was speechless.

After a long while, he finally said, "If you are waiting for me to take the Zen position next year, you have to go out and wander around for a few years!"

"Father, you really don't need to use this to scare your son!"

He has already caught up with things like time travel, so what else does he have to be afraid of?

As long as the scumbag dad is not afraid that he will lose his country, he can stay for as many years as he likes.

Of course, he only thought about this in his heart and did not dare to say it out loud!

Otherwise, the scumbag would have to point at his nose and scold him for a long time!

Ying Zheng is described in history books as a courageous and resolute man.

I didn’t say that I was so nagging!

"Huh! It's just a voyage around the world. Why do you think it's a big deal?"

The soldiers sent to the Mauryan Dynasty have returned, and the imperial court currently has more than a hundred steamships.

It’s more than enough for a round-the-world voyage!

"My father doesn't believe that the earth is round! Then let's take a gamble. If the sailing team comes back and proves that the earth is round, I will win, and if not, my father will win! How about that?"

Ying Feiyu narrowed his eyes and said with a wicked smile.

"Okay! What's the bet?"

"It's nothing. I just encounter some tribes along the way. Kill them easily and the spoils will be yours!"

"The spoils of war are yours?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes immediately stood up.

You know, when you attack a country, you get a lot of loot. If all of it goes to this guy, wouldn't the court suffer a loss?

The stakes are too high!

"No, no, how much loot is there at such a long distance!"

Ying Zheng was not confused yet, so he immediately waved his hand and refused.

"This trip is a circumnavigation, not specifically to clean up the whole world, and there won't be too many spoils! Moreover, several big countries in the world have been almost completely cleaned up! The remaining ones should be paid off.

Living a primitive life!”

Ying Feiyu persuaded with a wicked smile.

In this era, there are indeed many countries that still live a primitive hunting life with almost no civilization to speak of, but there are also many countries that are as prosperous as the Great Qin!

Ying Zheng's eyes rotated back and forth, seemingly hesitant!

"Well, as long as the father agrees, all the expenses for this trip, including the soldiers' salaries, will be paid by me. How about that?"

Ying Feiyu once again made an extremely tempting offer.

If this were the case, the court would have spent nothing, and it would have been able to prove whether the earth was round or square.

At the same time, it can also easily deal with some tribes that have just gathered, so that they cannot become a force.

There is a hundred benefits and no harm!

"You really know how to think about the court!"

"Of course!"

If it were at the beginning, seeing such favorable conditions, Ying Zheng might have agreed without even thinking.

But this time it was different. One was because the stakes were too big, and the other was because he discovered the unusual smile on that kid's face!

Every time before he breaks his mind, this kid will smile like this!

So his intuition told him that no matter how tempting the conditions were, he could not agree!

"Father, how are you?"

"Humph! You've always been someone who doesn't want to suffer. Why are you so kind this time and want to pay for the entire trip around the world?"

"Isn't this also to confirm to the people of Qin and future generations whether the earth is round or square, and to convey to them a correct concept?"

What Ying Feiyu said was righteous and awe-inspiring, but at first glance it sounded like there was nothing wrong with it.

However, Ying Zheng has not been getting along with him for more than a day or two. He knows this boy's character well and he will not do anything that is not beneficial!

"Put it down. You can sail around the world, but forget this bet!"

Ying Zheng thought about it for a long time, but decided to give up.

Who can have trouble with money?

Daqin is in the midst of development, and there are many places where money is needed!

Building roads or building bridges, which one can be done without money?

If it were given to this kid, he might have spent it on something useless!

"Father, are you sure? Don't think about it anymore? My son is willing to pay all the expenses!"

Ying Feiyu pretended to be sorry and raised his eyebrows in question.

"Ignore it, the national treasury is rich and it's not enough for this fee!"

Seeing the boy's expression, Ying Zheng became more determined in his thoughts.

At the same time, I was secretly glad that I didn’t fall for this guy’s trick!
