"What did you say? There are a lot of sweet potatoes in South America?"

When Ying Zheng asked this question, he was slightly startled and thought to himself, where is this South America?

However, this doesn’t seem to be the point, the point is the sweet potatoes.

Nowadays, there are constant famines in the Qin Dynasty and there is a shortage of sweet potatoes. If there is a place to store a large amount of sweet potatoes, it would be a treasure.

When Qin destroyed the six kingdoms, it relied on the granary of Shu to support its frontline operations.

Now that there is such a place, how could Ying Zheng not be overjoyed?

Jiang Chao was stunned when he heard Ying Zheng's question, and then turned to look at Zhao Kun.

Zhao Kun waved his hands in confusion: "Father, don't get excited, sit down and talk slowly."

Ying Zheng frowned, looked at Wang Ben, then at Jiang Chao, and then sat down as he was told.

But Zhao Kun explained: "Father, the South America that Jiang Chao mentioned is in a very far away place, and we can't go there for the time being."

"Why can't you go?"

Ying Zheng frowned: "Could it be that he is in the fairy world?"

In order to make Ying Zheng believe that amoxicillin was a fairy medicine, Zhao Kun deliberately made up a series of lies and stories about the fairy world. Now that Ying Zheng asked again, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Glancing at the confused Wang Bi and Jiang Chao, Zhao Kun could only bite the bullet and continue to explain: "It's not in the fairy world, but on the other side of the sea."

"The other side of the sea?"

Ying Zheng became even more confused.

He has made several eastward tours and visited many places, but he has never heard that there are sweet potatoes on the other side of the sea and that they are called South America.

So he asked again: "Kun'er means that South America and Great Qin are in the same world?"

"good!"

Zhao Kun nodded and said: "South America is about 20,000 kilometers away from Qin State. With the current speed of Qin State's carriages and horses, it may take ten years to travel!"

hiss.......

Hearing this, Ying Zheng took a deep breath.

You actually have to leave for ten years?

Wouldn't it take twenty years to go back and forth?

Spending twenty years grabbing sweet potatoes is simply not worth it!

Yes, when Ying Zheng heard about this sweet potato treasure land in South America, he had the same idea as Jiang Chao, which was to lead people to grab it.

However, what he didn't expect was that it was so far away.

After hesitating for a moment, Ying Zheng suddenly remembered something and asked: "Since it is so far away, how did you know about it?"

I knew you were going to ask this...Zhao Kun rolled his eyes in his heart, but asked calmly: "Did my adoptive father forget that my master is an immortal?"

Ying Zheng: "..." If you didn't say it, I would have almost forgotten it!

No wonder you brat doesn't act according to common sense. It turns out that the brain of a cultivator is not normal.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng's dark cheeks turned slightly red, because he suddenly realized that he also wanted to become an immortal.

"Cough, cough..."

Ying Zheng coughed slightly, then changed the subject and said, "Listen to what you said, there is still a lot of land overseas?"

"That's natural."

Zhao Kun said seriously: "Qin is only a slightly larger country in the world, and there is a country bigger than Qin on the other side of the sea!"

Ying Zheng was stunned: "The world?"

In fact, the word "world" first appeared in the Shurangama Sutra of the Tang Dynasty. It is a Buddhist term. Shi refers to time, boundary refers to space, and world is the universe.

"Surangama Sutra" says: "What is the world of living beings? The world is the flow, and the world is the direction."

The term ‘world’ in later generations refers to the entire earth.

Therefore, it is normal for the First Emperor to not know the world.

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Kun said "Oh" as if he understood, and said: "I almost forgot, my adoptive father doesn't know the world either."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, feeling that he was being despised!

But curiosity got the better of him, so he chose to endure it: "Then tell me, what is the world?"

"This!"

Zhao Kun raised his finger and pointed at the ground, saying: "This is the world."

"Um?"

Ying Zheng was a little confused.

But Zhao Kun said again: "To be specific, this is a world map, and the areas marked in it are the land of the entire world!"

As he spoke, he picked up the carbon stick and pointed at the area of ​​Qin: "This is Great Qin."

Ying Zheng looked along his guidance and suddenly felt dissatisfied: "Why is our Daqin so small?"

"As the saying goes, when you are at the top of the mountain, you can see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance."

Zhao Kun smiled and said: "My foster father did not stand at the highest position and overlook the whole world. Of course he only thought that Qin was very big!"

"Will you be at the top of the mountain and see all the mountains at a glance?"

Ying Zheng murmured once and suddenly felt goosebumps rising.

Isn't this how I felt when I was granted Zen status at Mount Tai?

Such a majestic and witty sentence is really shocking!

At this moment, Ying Zheng was fascinated by this wonderful sentence, as if he had returned to ten years ago, sweeping across the six countries and overlooking all the scenes!

After a while, he couldn't help but slam the table, "snap", and shouted: "Okay! What a person who knows how to stand at the top and see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance!"

"Hahaha! I didn't expect that I..."

Um?

Halfway through laughing, Ying Zheng's laughter suddenly stopped, and then he changed his words awkwardly and stiffly: "I wonder... I never thought there was such a wonderful sentence!"

"???"

Zhao Kun tilted his head and looked at Ying Zheng blankly.

Ying Zheng: "......"

Wang Ben decisively saved the country and changed the subject: "Sir, you just said that the areas marked on the world map are all land. Are there countries on these lands?"

In fact, there was land outside the Qin Dynasty, and Ying Zheng and Wang Ben knew about it. After all, the Donghu, Xiongnu, and Da Yueshi all established countries.

But the world map drawn by Zhao Kun was completely beyond their knowledge, which made them a little curious.

"There must be some!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kun nodded seriously, then raised his carbon stick, pointed at the world map and said: "In today's world, in addition to the Qin State, there is also a very powerful country called the Roman Empire."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes: "The Roman Empire?"

"Father, look here."

While Zhao Kun pointed out the regions of Europe, Asia, and Africa to Ying Zheng, he explained: "The reason why the Roman Empire was powerful is that its land area spans three continents, Europe, Asia, and Africa, making it the largest country in the world!"

"What?"

Ying Zheng was shocked because the area he saw was beyond imagination.

He didn't expect that there was such a powerful country in the world.

Li Si once described the area of ​​Qin to him, saying: "Within Liuhe, the land of the emperor extends to the East China Sea in the east, and across the quicksand in the west. It reaches Beihu in the south, and Daxia in the north."

It can be seen that the area of ​​Qin State is indeed very large.

But after listening to Zhao Kun's words, looking at the Qin State and the Roman Empire on the world map, they are like thumbs and palms, they are simply incomparable.

"How can my Great Qin be so unbearable?"

Ying Zheng was stunned and lost his mind, muttering to himself silently.

To be honest, he was shocked.

He used to be so angry that he thought Qin was the center of the world, but now it seems like a joke.

After a while, he slowly looked at Wang Ben, only to see that Wang Ben was also in a daze.

Wang Ben's thoughts are similar to those of Ying Zheng.

In the past, he thought he had no rival in the world, but now that he thinks about it, he is actually a frog in the well.

"I didn't expect the world to be so big..."

Wang Ben muttered to himself, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhao Kun: "This Roman Empire spans three continents, Europe, Asia and Africa. Will it pose a threat to our Qin State?"
