Chapter 147(1/2)
Princess Apasha didn't want to continue to stay in Mengdu City, which was simply the place of suffering for the gods of India.
"My lord, I want to get to the end of the great man faster, and I don't want to continue waiting in Mengdu." Princess Apasha said.
When Xun Kui heard this, he nodded in agreement.
In his heart, he was also unwilling to waste too much time in Tianzhu.
Originally, the mission of Xuanwei Gou Xi's group and the Gupta dynasty were not on his head.
After all, he was from a famous gentry of the Xun family in Yingchuan, and such hard work would not be given to people like him.
However, Xun Kui made no contribution to military and political affairs. After inheriting a Guanneihou, he began to devote himself to the compilation of the geography and four-party chronicles.
As the saying goes, seeing is better than seeing a hundred people. The mission to be sent to India was his own efforts.
"The princess said it's right. Mengdu is about to reach rainy season. If you wait any longer, it will take at least half a year. Once the war is extended, it may take longer. Now there is a fleet of Han on the southeast coast. It only takes three months to go back, and it's just a good time to appreciate the scenery of the sea!"
Xun Kui once saw the sea in the Xuzhou area of Qingzhou, but he never experienced it when he took a boat to sea, especially when he was voyage from the sea.
For a person who is determined to make achievements in geographical Quartet, it is really a pity for himself if he doesn't seize such a good opportunity.
"Well, then follow the teacher's wishes and let's go to the southeast coast to take a boat forward!"
Princess Apasha said in agreement.
Afterwards, Xun Kui issued a task to send troops to the beach to the general Gou Xi of Mengdu.
Regarding the envoy from Luoyang, the left-behind Meng Hou General Yang Nandi naturally did not dare to neglect him and quickly sent troops to escort him.
"Mr. Xun! Although there are boats sent by the Han Dynasty at the seaside port now, I heard that the sea storm season is coming, and it is already the last wave of boats." Yang Nandi came to the camp to visit Xun Kui.
"General Yang, what does this mean?"
Xun Kui looked down on Yang Nandi, a wilderness of Di Qiang, a wilderness in the frontiers, but Yang Nandi and others fought all the way from Liangzhou to Nanzhong, and then from Nanzhong to Dongtianzhu.
The experiences along the way are so legendary.
Xun Kui put down his identity and talked with him several times, recording a large stack of papers.
Yang Nandi thought Xun Kui was going to write a biography for him, and he was so happy that he was about to go to heaven.
That's the Xun family in Yingchuan!
The Gaomen of the Xun clan of Yingchuan had their own biography in their own writing.
What a glory this is!
Therefore, Yang Nandian had already led Xun Kui as a noble person in life.
Well, it's second only to the kind of benefactor Gou Xi.
"Mr. Xun, I just want to tell you that even if you go to the beach to take a boat, it will be difficult for you to load all of them with so many people and luggage in the team." Yang Nandi said.
"Why is this? Are there not enough ships in Jiaozhou Maritime Warehouse?" Xun Qi said puzzled.
"It's indeed not enough. Jiaozhou Maritime Conservancy has a large number of female slaves stranded in the port area and have not been transported back to Jiaozhou. This is the last time I have been transported. I don't know when the next time will be. After you Mr. Xun, even if you try your best to activate the capacity of the boats for you, it is impossible to carry so many people and luggage." Yang Nandi said.
Xun Kui asked some more before he understood the situation.
It was originally from the establishment of the Jiaozhou Maritime Warehouse Department, which has organized a special fleet to transport the territory of Gou Xi in India.
At the beginning, we still carried out normal trade, and transported some Indian specialties such as spices, sugar, jewelry and ivory.
However, since the Gou Xi group began to wipe out the native Indian forces in the territory, a large number of Indian women and children have been captured.
Originally, women and children are extremely important strategic resources.
According to the needs of Gou Xi and others, they should have left it for their own people to enjoy, but the years of wars made Gou Xi and the others extremely lack the weapons and weapons support from the Central Plains.
The transportation of mountain roads from Yizhou Ningzhou is particularly difficult and cannot be compared with the sea at Jiaozhou Maritime Shipping Department.
Therefore, in order to ensure the advantages of his military group, Gou Xi and others turned into evil slave traders and packaged all the captured Indian women to Jiaozhou Shibo.
Now this fleet must transport all these women back, otherwise once the storm increases, the fleet in Jiaozhou will stop transporting.
"Everyone of these Indian women in Jiaozhou can sell for tens of thousands of yuan. If they look good or have some talent, they are already hundreds of thousands of yuan, or even hundreds of thousands of yuan!"
As soon as Yang Nandi mentioned this, he immediately became happy.
Obviously, as the post-Meng Kingdom general, Yang Nandi must have made a lot of profits from the sale of female slaves in India.
"What, is the price of female slaves in Jiaozhou so expensive?" Xun Kui was immediately shocked when he heard this.
Today's Dahan's money system has undergone a series of improvements, and its value is much higher than that of the previous shoddy coins.
The amount of ten thousand yuan is no longer a decisive amount. As for the price of a female slave in India of 100,000 yuan or even hundreds of thousands of yuan, it is even more comparable to that of Luoyang.
"Now the Han Dynasty does not allow the people to be slaves, and the surrounding wilderness is even more crowded. The price of female slaves is already high, not to mention that the sea trade in Jiaozhou is now booming, and the prices of all commodities are rising all the way. It is not surprising that these female slaves are at a higher price." Yang Nandi said.
At this time, Xun Kui didn't quite understand what Yang Dandian came to find him specifically for.
Xun Kui, who was no longer willing to continue guessing, asked him directly.
"General Yang, I'm here to find me this time. I wonder what are your plans?" Xun Kui asked.
When Yang Nandi heard this, he showed a honest smile and scratched his scalp and said.
"Hehe, actually I have no plans, I just came to remind Mr. Xun that if I go to the seaside at that time, the boats in Jiaozhou Shibo were not enough, and the trip was delayed."
"General Yang's kindness, Xun understood, but this time the princesses who married King Gupta and his party were all palace servants of His Majesty in the future. So won't the Jiaozhou Maritime Warehouse Department free up some boats?"
Xun Kui thought that if he and his group were not talking about anything else, this would be the candidate for the harem of the Emperor of Han in the future.
Did you still ask the boat to transport the female slaves of India first and then throw the princess of India down?
"Mr. Xun, I'm afraid there is really a possibility!"
"What a joke, who dares to do this?"
"Duke Xun, the empress and the prince above the Jiaozhou Maritime Warehouse Department are not in charge of ordinary orders."
"General Yang said this, it seems that he has other plans?
"At this time, it is hard to say what the Gods on the other side are thinking. If they leave accidentally, their plan will have serious consequences for Yang Nandi and others. So when they have no choice, Yang Landi will do this without any scruples. Now he must be careful and cautious about Yang Nandi doing this, of course it is not simply a kind heart.
The dowry entourage brought by the Tianzhu woman named Apasha was as many as thousands of people. The food, drinking, defecation and urination of so many people is a big problem.
It would take a lot of energy, manpower and material resources to safely escort them along the mountain road to the territory of the Nanzhong Governor's Office.
If there is no benefit in this kind of thing, Yang Nandian will definitely not be able to do it.
"General Yang, if you have something to say, Xun will definitely not stand by if he can help!"
Xun Kui had already seen that Yang Nandian in front of him definitely had a desire to do with him.
Seeing this, Yang Nandi stopped hiding it.
"Mr. Xun, I guess I already know the situation in the area of Zhendu."
"Yes, I have already learned about it for ten months after going through the mountains and rivers." Xun Qie nodded and said.
In this matter, Xun Kuikui had no humble intentions at all.
In his four-way geographical records, the description of the Tianzhu Sindu Continent can be said to be the most attentive.
In this country thousands of miles away, Xun Kui was the first person to record it carefully.
This kind of achievement is really unprecedented, but it is much better than the high-ranking children in the Central Plains who still think about taking drugs and drinking.
"Mr. Xun is a noble family, knowledgeable and talented, and now he is well-versed in the situation of body poisoning. He must go back to report to the emperor in the future, right?" Yang Nandi asked again.
"It should be like this."
"Although Mr. Yang has no talent, he has some suggestions to mention them to Mr. Xun!"
"General Yang, please speak!"
"Mr. Xun, this body poisonous area is vast and the soil is fertile. Although there are some malaria and stubborn diseases, the abundant resources are definitely not worse than Guanzhong. On such a large land, if a hero appears, learn from the Qin Emperor to unify the six kingdoms and play with one to unify the body poison, then for the Han Dynasty, isn't a strong enemy appearing?" Yang Nandi said.
When Xun Kui heard about it, he nodded, thinking that what Yang Naidi said made sense.
"General Yang means that the Gupta Kingdom is still a strong enemy, can't we get along with each other?" Xun Kui asked.
Yang Nandi shook his head when he heard this, then lowered his voice and said.
"Mr. Xun, the Kingdom of Gupta is just a group of wine bags and a group of high-ranking priests and talismans. There is no way to lead the army or govern the people. What I said is really qualified to compare with Qin Shihuang. It is not in the Kingdom of Gupta, but here!"
Xun Kui was shocked when he heard this and immediately realized something.
"General Yang means that Gou Xi has the intention of rebellion?"
"No, no!"
Yang Nandi waved his hand quickly and continued to explain.
"King Meng is determined to fight for the Han Dynasty and often tells us that he is willing to be a barrier forever. How could he rebel?"
"What did General Yang mean just now?" Xun Kui also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Xun, King Meng is loyal to the Han Dynasty, but his children and grandchildren were basically born here and may not be able to see the mighty and mighty of the Han Dynasty in their entire lives. It is inevitable that some people who overestimate themselves will appear."
Yang Nandian's words sounded like fart to Xun Kui.
nonsense!
