In this situation of guilty conscience, Jian Yong saw the other party's expression and thought that the other party had guessed his true inner thoughts, so he couldn't help but feel worried.
In fact, Herodian only had an idea, whether it would be possible to move the trade condominium closer to the front of the Zagros Mountains.
As for whether such a trade condominium would allow the Han Dynasty to invade the land of Media, Herodian had no idea at all. He was originally planning to use that area as a buffer line, and did not regard it as his own land at all.
, naturally there is no thought of losing.
[It would be better to send a letter to Pompianus and His Majesty to ask them to make some preparations.] Herodian thought silently that he had basically agreed.
"I have basically agreed, but I need to communicate with the country. I would like to ask Xianhe to wait for a few days." After thinking about it, Herodians agreed to the matter again. In fact, he was basically sure that the country also agreed to this matter.
Yes, you just have to consider who to attack.
"That's good. When you get a reply, let me know. We'll prepare the recipe for you first." Jian Yong seemed to have forgotten what he had been thinking before and said with a smile.
When Jian Yong came back again, the Political Yuan was still full of people. Except for Chen Xi who had finished his work and ran away early, everyone else was still there.
"Zichuan left again. Didn't he leave a little early today?" Jian Yong frowned and asked, "Didn't you have to wait an hour or two before leaving?"
"He went to see Jiang Gongyan to adjust his responsibilities." Xun Yu explained casually, "Wen Ru has some tasks that are not suitable for Gongyan to take over, so they need to be readjusted."
Jian Yong didn't say anything after hearing this. Just listen to this kind of thing. This is a reasonable reason. In fact, Chen Xi can indeed do it, but it will definitely not take too long.
"How is the situation?" Jia Xu stopped writing and asked.
"One hundred boxes of gold coins, plus a trade condominium area, but Herodian said he wanted to discuss it with the country. I'm afraid he has noticed our intention." Jian Yong said with some worry.
"Tell me about the situation at that time and let me see what happened." Jia Xu frowned and asked Jian Yong after hearing this. After all, land is still very important compared to gold coins that cannot be eaten or drank.
After hearing this, Jian Yong described in detail the changes in Herodian's communication with him, and then looked at the group of people present.
"There is no problem. It is similar to what we estimated before. The actual border line of Rome is in the Zagros Mountains, and the Median line is a buffer line. The other party has no doubts about the city's condominium construction, but it just feels that it is far away." Jia Xu
The corner of his mouth curled up when he heard this, which was pretty much what he expected.
"In other words, the Romans will most likely build the city to the western border of Media, instead of our current eastern border." Liu Ye also smiled and said, "One hundred boxes
The gold coins were exchanged for a large piece of land, which is very good."
"The Romans are so stupid?" Jian Yong was stunned and felt incredible.
"It's not stupid, but it's a matter of the number of Romans. The main ethnic group of Rome only accounts for one-tenth of the total population, or even less than one-tenth. This is why Roman soldiers can prepare their own weapons and equipment. They
They are basically considered nobles." Jia Xu explained to Jian Yong calmly, "Their citizens are somewhat close to the gentry of our Spring and Autumn Period."
"It is precisely because of this that if they continue to expand, they will be beyond their reach." Liu Ye echoed a few sentences from the side, "If the Romans did not continue to increase the number of their main ethnic groups, they would sooner or later be overwhelmed by the increasingly larger territory, and
More and more foreigners are tricking us to death.”
"I feel like their policy in recent years is to suppress the barbarians and then increase the number of citizens." Jian Yong thought about what he saw and heard in Rome, thoughtfully.
"It's impossible to solve it in a short time. It's okay for the Roman citizens to stick together, but once they are dispersed, they will be destroyed by barbarians who are several times more numerous than them. It is not an exaggeration to say that the current Roman Empire is in danger. The reason why it did not collapse is just because of their
The emperor has always been very good." Jia Xu said with a sneer. When he learned about the Roman system before, Jia Xu felt that Rome would capsize sooner or later.
After looking at the past emperors of Rome, Jia Xu said that it was indeed reasonable for Rome to survive until now. In the era of imperialism, the influence of anything could not exceed that of a wise emperor who ruled the country.
The great thing about Rome is that the emperors seem to be just okay. Although there are some who seek death, their reigns are not long. On the contrary, those who are powerful are not in office for a short time. This is really a matter of destiny.
Got it
It is precisely because of this group of above-average emperors that the Roman Empire was able to maintain the operation of this huge empire with only one-tenth of its main citizens.
"However, we don't have much interest in Rome in a short period of time. Our main energy is still on Kushan. Rome is really too far for us." After confirming the attitude of the Romans, Jia Xu quickly
It was a natural change of topic.
"The friendship between Han and Luo is still very important." Liu Ye smiled and said, "We need to maintain our friendship for a long time."
Jian Yong nodded noncommittally, which could be regarded as finalizing the foreign policies of both parties in recent years. It is indeed impossible for Rome and the Han Dynasty to have any conflict now.
On the other hand, after Chen Xi ran away, he did go to Jiang Wan's place for an evaluation. After confirming that there was no problem, the so-called adjustment work was really to take back the unsuitable jobs and then add a lot of burdens.
Regarding this situation, Jiang Wan, who is as young as Chen Xi, is full of energy and is very interested in taking on heavy tasks. He said that he will complete the task on time. Chen Xi expressed that he was very satisfied with this. Young people are still easy to fool. Look.
The others are all old fritters.
There was nothing more to say after that. I went to Zhen's house as usual. Unfortunately, Zhen Mi went to Qiuyou to relax. Chen Xi felt much better after learning about this. It was good to relax. If he took a break, he wouldn't have to write such troublesome things.
something.
So I went to Cai Yan's house on the way. Unfortunately, the eldest lady went to teach the eldest princess and the noble concubine today. Chen Xi could only run back gloomily, but this time was not suitable. After thinking about it, Chen Xi decided to go and have a look.
Construction of Chang'an City outside the city.
"Well, it's not bad. It seems that the underground ones have been almost laid." Chen Xi took a car to the construction site outside the city and looked at it. He was quite satisfied. The foundation, pipes and other things were almost done. After all, these were just a few.
Yue, it should be said that there is strength in numbers.
Chen Xi's style of painting in silk clothes is completely different from that of the people working here, but those people looked at Chen Xi at most, and then started working again as quickly as possible. After all, these guys these days don't look like they are at the bottom.
I came out to watch them build Chang'an City and so on. There were quite a lot of them, but I didn't know whose children they were.
"The construction was really fast!" Chen Xi watched as a group of people carried a one-foot-long square stone and put it in a suitable position. Then the workers quickly poured water on it, and soon it was all up, with obvious signs of pain on the face.
He showed a look of satisfaction.
But after seeing this place, Chen Xi took small steps to see other places.
Speaking of which, it was actually quite dangerous for young people like this who seemed to be alone to run around in the past. Without Confucius's fighting power, let alone traveling around the country, he might be dead when he left home.
The situation under the rule of the Han Dynasty is much better now, at least there are basically no such thing as road robbers. The main reason is that most road robbers do this kind of thing just because they can't survive, and there are only a few people who are truly born bad.
The reason why Chen Xi likes working-for-relief is that it can attract those who may become unemployed and then be forced to become bad people because they have no money to live.
If you have food to eat and money to make, who is willing to break the law and commit those days of licking blood from the edge of a knife? It’s not like being a soldier. Being a soldier at least has food, salary, and pension. If you become a thief, the world will be really miserable.
, when even thieves starve to death.
In order to avoid the emergence of unemployed vagrants like green-skinned hooligans, Chen Xi created many jobs that required a large amount of labor.
When you are a green-skinned gangster who bullies the village, you will be stabbed in the spine. After you die, you can only throw your body in a mass grave and come to the construction site to carry bricks. You must have good physical strength as a green-skinned gangster. The foreman calls you to carry bricks!
So all the young gangsters were arrested because of Chen Xi's way of thinking. After being arrested, they first followed the military training model of college students. They didn't need anything else but discipline. After a month of intensive assault, they were taken to the construction site to start laying bricks and moving for half a year.
After removing the bricks and putting them back again, these people will stop being gangsters and start living a good life...
In short, Chen Xi is very satisfied with his arrangement. As long as he is not born a bad person and has the hands and feet to live a good life on his own, he will definitely be happy to live on his own.
"This side is fine. This seems to be a canal being dug. By the way, the outer city needs to bring live water into the city? Isn't this looking for trouble?" Chen Xi looked at the ditch that passed through the city wall and couldn't help but frowned.
Chinese people pay attention to live water when drinking water. In ancient cities, wells were usually dug. If you wanted live water, you could only transport it from the outside into the city. And build a ditch to bring live water into the city. Who designed this? It is not afraid of the foundation being penetrated.
,and then the wall collapsed?
"Who is the person in charge here? Who is so imaginative? Who designed this plan?" Chen Xi began to look around, looking for the person in charge. This design is a pit. Sooner or later, the city wall will collapse. No one dares to do this kind of design.
Damn, the designer probably really needs to be beaten to death.
Just when Chen Xi was looking around for the person in charge of the area, two paws were placed on Chen Xi's shoulders, one on the left and the other on the right.
