If the major aristocratic families only felt a headache after hearing the results of the past five years and thought about why their share was constantly getting smaller, then the Roman envoys, Annaus and Modestinus who came to be the audience at the great court meeting
Both of them were blue in the face.
and other states...
Forget it, the Han Dynasty did not have a state at all. It was the father of all the surrounding countries. Therefore, when the Han Dynasty held a court meeting, the main purpose of each vassal country was to add a few more words to Da Honglu's mouth. Which country sent what
What, congratulations to Her Majesty the Queen for happiness, longevity and good health.
As for coming to worship in person, sorry, generally speaking, you are not eligible. In the past few years, only Kushan has enjoyed this treatment. Other countries have waited for Dahonglu to summon them at the inn arranged by Dahonglu.
Let’s meet Her Royal Highness the Princess when she has time.
If you want to participate in the great court meeting of the Han Dynasty, you must first be strong enough. At least you must be at the level of the Parthian Empire. If you don't have this level of combat power, it is better to arrange at the inn.
As for Rome, it was different. The two sides were too far away and both were powerful, so the Han Dynasty gave Rome equal treatment.
To be honest, a very important point needs to be pointed out here, that is, before the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains dynasty had the responsibility and obligation to conquer any country that was an imperial system and did not surrender.
Because everything in the world is the land of the king, and the shores of the land are the ministers of the king. To put it simply, there is only one emperor, and there is only one emperor in the world, so you can either become a minister or give in. There is no other choice. The Central Plains Dynasty
The great righteousness and legal system are that only I, the emperor, is the orthodox one.
Therefore, before the Song Dynasty, it was difficult for the Central Plains dynasties to negotiate with an imperial country. This is why the emperor of the Kushan Empire in the Han Dynasty was called the Yuezhi King. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a Persian Governor's Palace in Persia, which was under the
Under the Anxi Protectorate.
Either become a vassal, or wait for me to free my hand and make you a vassal. Anyway, don’t let me free my hand. If I do, I will cut you. There can only be one emperor in the world, and that is the Emperor of the Central Plains. All others will be reduced by one level, even now.
I didn’t cut it, I had to do it when I had my hands free.
Before the Song Dynasty, whenever the Central Plains Dynasty claimed to be unified, it had always been in this tone. Whenever anyone in the surrounding areas found someone claiming to be emperor, they would cut each one down and turn them into kings.
This is also the reason why the Han Dynasty has few allies. In fact, the only one on the entire earth that is compatible with the Han Dynasty is actually Rome.
Because Rome firmly declares that it is a civil system, and the citizens firmly deny the imperial system, even if Rome is actually the de facto emperor, the so-called first citizen, the dictator, is no different from the emperor, but the Roman citizens firmly believe that as long as I
Being a citizen and being able to fight is like climbing the ladder, being able to reach the position of the first citizen.
Although this sounds like fantasy, there was Pertinax, the son of a slave, who repeatedly performed meritorious deeds and was promoted all the way from citizen to knight, from knight to senator, and from senator to emperor. Roman citizens were still very concerned about their identity.
agreed.
Who dares to say that our Rome is an imperial system? Let’s smash your heads. We are a civil system. Any citizen may become a military governor or the chief of the Senate!
Therefore, there is no conflict between the legal systems of Rome and the Han Dynasty. At least the Han Dynasty does not think that Rome is an imperial country and is trying to steal the legal authority of their central dynasty. Therefore, the two sides are harmonious in this aspect. At least most of the Han Dynasty think that Rome is an imperial country.
It's considered a republican system.
After all, both the Han Dynasty and Rome had played the republican game, and the Senate parliamentary system was actually not much different from the assembly system they played before. Therefore, the Han Dynasty was quite friendly to Rome. After all, there was no legal competition.
This is also the reason why the Han Dynasty invited Roman envoys to participate in the meeting. After all, Rome has only one small partner left. It is meaningless to show the magnanimity of a great country to the rubbish vassals. It is better to find someone of the same level to let him experience it.
.
This is roughly the mentality, so Anaeus and Pertinax are here to listen. They have no desire to speak. They just want to hear about the situation of the Han Dynasty in recent years and feel the great power of the Han Dynasty.
, finally applaud again.
At least that's what these two people thought at first, but now, Annaus and Pertinax are both blue in the face. Those who can be arranged by Rome to serve as envoys are very outstanding young people, and they know very well
What an outrageous scale the data Chen Xi mentioned before is.
"Annaeus, did you just hear that?" Petinax suppressed the turmoil in his heart and looked at Anaus in disbelief.
"I heard it, and after thinking about it carefully, I have traveled around Yongzhou with Cang Hou. This is true everywhere in the Han Dynasty. What Chen Hou said may be a bit conservative. I have never thought about this aspect before.
, maybe I didn’t dare to think about it.” Annaus’ mouth was bitter, this Han Dynasty is really terrible, but it is much scarier than the previous dream deduction.
"I have also traveled around, and because of my status as an envoy, I have even been to Bingzhou." Petinax said with a wry smile, "You can't even imagine the millions of cattle and sheep."
Pertinax and Annaeus had only seen part of the thing, and they were only shocked at the time without thinking about it in depth, or they didn't dare to think about this possibility at all, but now it's all so straightforward.
is right in front of you.
"The strength of the Han Dynasty is not only due to its generals and soldiers, but also its logistics expenditure." Annaus said with a wry smile, "I wonder how the financial officer would feel if he knew this."
"Probably sighing." Pertinax did not hide his bitterness. He knew a lot, so he knew what such a gap meant. The population of Rome could support several losses, but Rome really had that.
Do you have the financial resources to support such losses?
"Petinax, what are you going to do when you return to Italy?" Annaus also understood this truth, but his expression became calm. Since he has to face it sooner or later, at least knowing it is better than not knowing. Knowing it earlier will be the same.
It's better than knowing late.
"I originally studied philosophy, but after traveling to Rome and the Han Dynasty, I found that food, clothing, housing and transportation were of far greater significance to the people than philosophy, so I went to study law." Petinacus said with a bit of a sigh, while Annau
Si felt strange about this answer.
Because Annaus also realized that food, clothing, housing and transportation were of far greater significance to the people than his own random thoughts, so he followed Cookie to learn how to cultivate improved seeds and became an excellent agriculturist. However, Pertinax's answer seemed logical to him.
It doesn't make sense.
"Because in this world, besides increasing output to affect everyone, there is another way called changing the distribution plan. In my opinion, there should be no other way to do this except by law."
Pertinax said quietly.
There is no doubt that Annaeus and Pertinax are both smart people, but like Lu Xun and Lu Yu, they recognized the problem, but their solutions were completely opposite.
"Your road is difficult to walk." Annaus was silent for a while and said. He already understood his friend's thoughts, but the Roman civil system was destined to be unfair in distribution. It was precisely because of this injustice that the civil system gained all citizens.
support.
"Yes, it is difficult to leave, but this is the only way to ease the internal conflicts in Rome. If you don't change this, even if you increase output, not many people will benefit in the end. Anaeus, after all, I
Not a great nobleman like you." Pertinax's calm tone sounded like thunder in Annaus's ears.
Pertinax has the advantage of status in front of most citizens, but in front of Annaus, it is just a joke. The descendant of the three giants, this political legacy is ridiculously large, plus Annaus’ father
He died in the Commodus era, has been rehabilitated, his heirs are entrusted to Nigel, and he has reconciled with Severus. Annaus has definitely entered the Senate.
Although Rome does not pay attention to hereditary inheritance, there are clear connections between blood and legal systems within the country. It can be said that these things are almost inevitable.
What's more, Annaus himself is not bad. According to Pertinax's estimation, he may have to start as a lawyer when he returns, but there is a high probability that Annaus will directly enter the Senate, and then Pompianus will personally
Cultivate, as the next generation, or as the next generation of financial officers.
This is the difference. Annaus is almost the kind of person who is born at the finish line.
"Sorry." Annaus sighed after being silent for a while.
"No need to apologize, it's not your fault." Pertinax shook his head, "Continue listening to the Great Court Meeting of the Han Dynasty. There is a lot of interesting content in it, and it is also a reference for us, although it sounds really scary.
Already."
Anaeus also smiled when he heard Pertinax's tone, but then he shuddered. Indeed, the pure report data of the Han Dynasty is really terrifying, and there is nothing to explain.
It just piles up real data for you one by one, which is shocking.
Naturally, Chen Xi didn't know what Anaeus and Pertinax were thinking. In fact, even if they knew it, it wouldn't matter. Even if these two guys brought back what they knew, it would actually have no impact. Rome basically couldn't replicate the Han Dynasty.
Current mode of operation.
The advantages and disadvantages of the planned economy are very obvious. The last one that played like this has no further details, and it has not been able to breathe until now. Even if Pompianus got these things, he could only learn from some edges.
corner corners.
Therefore, Chen Xi has never cared about others learning from it, because it is too difficult. This is not a question of building a factory, a mine, or a workshop, but a complete industrial layout thinking.
