Chapter 396: Comparison of Maps

"Back to my lord, I came to the Tang Dynasty to do business, and I didn't bring a map of the Tang Dynasty with me!" Ariani Walter quickly replied.

In fact, according to Ariani Watt's status in the Big Food Country, he could not get a map of the Big Food Country at all.

"You have come all the way to do business in Datang. How long does it take to travel from Dashi to Datang?"

Li Chongyi asked again.

"Back to my lord, I'm going to bring a lot of goods from the Great Food Kingdom to the Tang Dynasty. It will take at least two months!"

Ariani Walter replied.

"Two months? Even if you travel eighty miles in one day, it is still five thousand miles? How can the Dashi Kingdom be so far away from the Tang Dynasty?"

At this time, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others could not help but subconsciously open the map in their hands and study it carefully.

On the side, Ariani Walter, Wesson and others all looked startled and curiously looked at the map in the hands of Cheng Chusi and others.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Cheng Chusi, who had been lying on the map and looking at the map for a long time, quickly raised his head and stared at Ariani Walter.

"You birdman, from Dashi to the Tang Dynasty, it is such a long distance, and you have to pass through Tuyuhun, Tubo Kingdom, and so many countries in the Western Regions. How can you make it here without a map in your hands?

"

"I'll forgive you, noble man, but I really don't have a map of the Great Food Country with me. When we come to the Tang Dynasty from the Great Food Country, we will trade with all the kingdoms we pass by, and then draw maps along the way!"

Ariani Walter's face changed drastically, and he quickly said with a look of fear.

At the same time, Weisen subconsciously looked at Weisen. After they came to the Tang Dynasty, these Hu merchants would find a big force as a backing. Otherwise, they would not be able to leave the Tang Dynasty, and the money and goods they carried would be robbed.

.

The Wei family, who have royal connections, are Ariani Walter's backstage in Chang'an City.

"Hmph, don't look at him. If Ye Ye and others want to kill you, even if the head of the Wei family comes, they can't stop them!"

Cheng Chusi snorted coldly, "Why don't you quickly bring up your map of the Dashi Country to Ye Ye!"

Hearing this, Weisen's expression froze and his face was full of anger, but he remembered what the head of the family told him, these dandy boys were all a mess, and even if they won the argument, they would still lose, and they might even get a beating in vain.

"Back to you, my lord, the map I'm waiting for is with the entourage at the inn."

Ariani Walter trembled and replied hurriedly.

"Hurry and get it, I want to borrow it!" Cheng Chusi said.

"If you have any other maps, bring them over together. There will be lots of rewards!"

"yes!"

Ariani Walter responded quickly and walked out quickly.

"Li Si, take some people to escort this Hu Shang. Go back as soon as possible!"

From the side, Li Chongyi suddenly shouted.

Hearing this, Ariani Walter paused and quickly turned around to salute Li Chongyi.

Li Si in the room quickly raised his hands to Li Chongyi and followed him.

"Shopkeeper Cui, go and summon those Hu merchants on the third floor!"

Afterwards, Cheng Chusi spoke to the old shopkeeper again.

This time, the old shopkeeper didn't dare to delay, he responded quickly and walked out quickly.

Soon, the three Hu businessmen on the third floor were called up.

As soon as they entered the door, the three Hu merchants all looked miserable, and they quickly bowed their hands to Cheng Chusi and others.

"The villains Aragorn, Marcy, Bol and others have met some noble people!"

"Where did you all come from? Do you have a map with you?"

This time, Cheng Chusi asked directly without delay.

"Back to you noble man, I am from Persia."

"The villain comes from Sogdia."

"The villain is from Linyi."

Regarding Cheng Chusi's words, these three Hu businessmen did not dare to hide anything.

"Stop talking nonsense, do you have a map in your hands?"

Cheng Chusi looked impatient and stared at the three Hu merchants with wide eyes, making the three people tremble.

Before coming up, Old Shopkeeper Cui also warned and threatened the three of them. No matter how noble the person above them is and how bad their character is, they should answer whatever they ask. If they don't serve well, they will be beheaded.

Therefore, after seeing that Cheng Chusi was slightly angry, he did not even dare to keep his most important trade route map privately.

"Back to you, your lord, we only have the map between our hometown and the Tang Dynasty!"

"Bring it quickly!"

Cheng Chusi suddenly said with a happy face.

The three Hu merchants felt relieved, their lives should have been saved.

"Your Majesty, that map is for our business purposes and is very valuable to us, so we keep it in the inn for safekeeping by our close associates."

"Hurry and get it for me!"

Cheng Chusi's eyes widened again and he said loudly, "Don't worry, this is a map. I'm just borrowing it for a while and will return it to you after use."

"Please wait a moment, Xiaolang. I'll go to the inn to get the map right away!"

The three Hu merchants were overjoyed. As long as they could get a ride with Cheng Chusi and other young nobles, not to mention borrowing a map, they would be willing to offer even half of their goods.

"If you have maps of other countries, you can bring them too!"

Seeing the eager look of these three Hu merchants, Cheng Chusi quickly added.

"Yes Yes……"

After that, the three of them ran outside.

Afterwards, Wesson was left alone in the house.

Facing Cheng Chusi and others, Weisen looked embarrassed and regretful in his heart. He would have left with Ariani if ​​he had known better.

Cheng Chusi and others turned a blind eye to Weisen.

He is just a steward of the Wei family. Even if he is a steward of the Wang family, they can kill his close associates in front of him.

Fortunately, Ariani Watt returned soon.

In his hand, he also held a piece of yellowed leather paper.

After spreading it out on the table, a simple map from the Tang Dynasty to Dashi appeared in front of Cheng Chusi and the others.

Seeing this, Cheng Chusi and others' eyes lit up.

Immediately, they took it and started to compare it with the map they brought.

Starting from Chang'an and going west, you can reach the Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Tubo and Dashi.

In the middle, there are more than a dozen small countries, none of which are included in the drawings drawn by the Master.

However, it is enough to prove that the map drawn by Confucius is correct.

"Quick, Li Chongyi, you can draw another one according to this one, and I will fill in this area on Master's map!"

Cheng Chusi said with excitement.

On the side, Li Chongyi, Li Chengqian and others also had happy faces.

They all took out their pens from their pockets and began to draw carefully.

Seeing this, Weisen, Shopkeeper Cui, as well as Ariani Walter and other Hu merchants were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help but look curious, and then they began to look seriously at the maps in the hands of Cheng Chusi and others.

Um?

Suddenly, several people's eyes couldn't help but widen.

"A few young men don't have a palm-sized place in this area, but we in the Tang Dynasty?"

"Isn't that written with the Chinese characters Datang?"

Cheng Chusi replied angrily.

On the side, Li Chongyi and others glared fiercely at Shopkeeper Cui, Wei Sen and others.

They are most annoyed by people like this who bother them randomly!

However, at this moment, Shopkeeper Cui, Wei Sen and others only saw the maps on the table and did not notice the expressions of these people.

He kept looking at the table, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.

On that map, the Tang Dynasty did not occupy even one percent of it. In fact, even the great food country had a land area as large as the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, outside of the Tang Dynasty, there was even wider land.
