Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2984 Thinking about rectifying the source
When Liu Tong left, he was actually in a trance, and this trance even lasted until Liu Tong left from Ganquan Palace.

Well, there is nothing to say. I was stunned by Cai Yan. With two special types of talents, Liu Tong finally understood how terrifying Cai Yan was. I'm afraid I can take one too.

"It's scary." Si Niang sat in the frame and finally came to her senses.

"I didn't send it out in the end." Liu Tong said tangledly, all the original ideas were all over, what made Chen Xi stop staring at him, what made Cai Yan have no time to care about himself, it is completely impossible now.

"I can't help it. What everyone Cai said is very reasonable. In her situation, it may not be a good thing to enter the Chen family's family, and everyone Cai also said that she needs to keep Chenliu Cai's lintel." Si Niang scratched herself. said with a sigh.

On the other side, Cai Yan sighed in her frame. She had cut her own way, and that was the only way to prevent herself from having other thoughts.

"That's fine, Zi Chuan, you must not be like Sima Xiangru, my beloved forever." Cai Yan prayed softly. Although he made a choice and cut off his own escape path, This is not to say that Cai Yan is not confused at all.

At the same time, Chen Xi's mood became much lighter. Although there was still a literary problem on his head, Chen Xi firmly believed that he could solve it.

Ganquan Palace is not far from Chang'an, and the road is a straight road. Everyone is equipped with horse carriages, so they set off in the afternoon and came back in the evening.

Early the next morning, the tense routine court meeting began again, but Liu Tong was accustomed to warping, and the blood vessels on Cao Cao's forehead became stronger because of this, but it was nothing, the work that should be done was still being done, and then It is the arrival of Roman envoys and Ye Tiao envoys.

There is nothing to say about Rome. One of the top powers in this era came here to see how the Han Dynasty was doing and whether it could buy silk or something.

Chen Xi has heard of Herodian, the head of the mission. He is a senior member of the Senate who has the ability to understand the economy, but he is a remnant of the era of the Five Great Emperors. The group of people under the Lu era, who were really able to work and fight, were basically remnants of the era of Marcus Aurelius.

Here is a regular mission, so the people contacted are also regular officials from Da Honglu's side. Both sides are big countries, so there are plenty of talks. As for Galen, he has already met with Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo, and they are very happy I admire the other party's medical level.

Anyway, in the words of Jia Xu's intelligence personnel, Galen is in a state where Ladu can't leave. Of course, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing don't want this guy to leave at all. The three of them have stopped even sleeping since they met. On drips, taking medicine, and communicating all the time.

It is said that the disciples under Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing who were able to do it were astonished by the bearded man on the opposite side, especially the surgical level of the other party, which really opened the eyes of this group of people. Of course, Gai Wen said that he knew that there was a Two big cows, he should bring his apprentices too.

After that, Galen started researching with Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjingwo. Ares had been abandoned. As for Herodian and the officials of Dahonglu, they had been discussing various commercial regulations. Anyway, according to Liu Yu's meaning, Rome is simply a big dog, and the settlement is complicated. The Roman currency is worried that it will not pass, so let’s do it. Let’s settle directly with gold, jade, and gemstones.

Such a bold settlement method made Liu Yu's heart twitch, and he felt what is called the unique charm of a big dog.

Of course, Herodian also felt that the Han Dynasty was worthy of being a country of gold and silk. It was rich, extremely rich, and it ate and drank well.

Therefore, the talks between the two parties were actually very smooth. After all, Rome is also a big country. Compared with luxury goods, Rome has a lot of gold and gems. As for jade, Herodian added it after seeing the Han Dynasty.

Rome does not use jade. The entire jade culture is almost a symbol of pan-Chinese civilization. Rome does not use jade, but the Han Dynasty said that it accepts jade. Can find ore, that is silk!

Anyway, Herodian thought, if it is possible to spend no money, it is better not to spend money. In the past, this kind of stone called jade was worthless, but now it is valuable when it is linked to silk.

Think about it, Rome spends every year on the purchase of silk, which is almost equivalent to one-twentieth of Rome's total fiscal revenue. Now it is blocked by stones. Doesn't Herodian say that this is equivalent to opening up a source of income?
This is one-twentieth of the total fiscal revenue. Pliny the Elder said in his notes that the Roman finances were eaten up by more than [-] million silk every year. This is [-] million, but even if Rome It was the emperor who issued the ban, and they still enjoyed it.

Think about it, even if Severus had a brain hole and raised the income of Roman soldiers to [-] dirinas, which was over [-] million, he could support an elite army of [-].

During the official history of Severus, the Roman army reached its peak with only 20 troops, which almost dragged Rome to death. This shows how crazy the Romans were to buy silk.

Therefore, after discovering that a stone that was useless before could actually pay back the money, Herodian immediately gave birth to a group of professionals on the side of the Han Dynasty, and then went to Rome to find this kind of stone that fit the aesthetic concept of the Han Dynasty.

For this person, those stones are no longer stones, but real Roman silver coins. Since stones can be used as money in the Han Dynasty, Herodian decided to use stones as a block, money or something , Coinage is also very painful for Rome.

However, the Han Dynasty is still very interested in opening up the Silk Road, and Rome's transaction volume calculated in terms of billions is also very tempting to the Han Dynasty. After all, the standard Dilina in Rome is based on the purchasing power of grain. , almost a hundred times the five baht money here in the Han Dynasty.

In other words, if it is exchanged for five baht, that would be a transaction volume of tens of billions. Even with the support of Chen Xi, the current financial revenue of the Han Dynasty is only tens of billions, which is still a long way from hundreds of billions. Sending such a big business, Da Honglu Liu Yu and accompanying Mi Zhu deeply felt the sincerity of Rome.

After all, the sincerity of Rome is too great. The price of ordinary raw silk is calculated according to the high price several times that of the Han Dynasty, and it only needs to be sent to 36 countries, and the Roman merchants will transport it back by themselves, which is five times the domestic price.

Sending it to the mountain pass of the Zagros Mountains is directly ten times the domestic price. Even if it is raw silk, it is almost on top of the finished silk at this time. For procurement, the Han Dynasty felt that they could directly set up a large-scale hand-spinning factory in the Tianshan area.

In this way, in the Tianshan Mountains, even the transportation costs are gone, the profits are huge, and the money is stolen. Even Mi Zhu feels what it means to do business with a big dog.

However, such a price is not a problem for Herodian, Severus, Pompianus, Papinian, etc. In fact, all the people of insight in Rome know that silk is robbing Rome's money , the problem is you look at this group of people who don't wear it!
What do you wear in a Mediterranean climate? Is it comfortable to wear silk?But it is brighter and brighter. Before the development of the latter technologies, silk is not comparable to any kind of fabric except that it is expensive. Therefore, for the Romans, silk is indispensable!
The Romans had no way to control the price of silk. Silk was equal to the price of gold. When Rome was relatively cheap, it was often more expensive than gold. Therefore, let alone the price of raw silk in the Han Dynasty. The Romans rushed to cut the price of silk to one-fifth to one-third of the same weight of gold.

Therefore, the huge room for maneuver between the two sides made the negotiation very harmonious, so that Liu Yu looked more and more pleasing to the Romans, with black hair and black eyes. I have already begun to imagine that the Romans are a former ethnic group that lost their Chinese heritage.

[Let's go back and ask someone to study it, and we still have to do it to get to the bottom of it. ] Liu Yu naturally thought that the fastest way to deal with an opponent is to turn the opponent into one of his own.

Rome is so strong that even Liu Yu has some headaches, not to mention Herodian is considered polite, and Liu Yu doesn't want to be at a disadvantage and lose the demeanor of a great country, so after he came down, he also felt that such a rich and human Rome Some have big heads.

Based on the fact that everyone looks so similar, let’s get to the bottom of it, maybe it’s a brother’s idea, Liu Yu started to find someone to fool Herodian, the enlightenment school, if you tell a lie a thousand times, it’s true, anyway, as long as you believe it, it’s good for the Han Dynasty That's a good thing.

"Shouldn't you raise the price higher? Why didn't you continue to raise the price?" Jia Xu handed the report from Da Honglu to Chen Xi and asked casually.

"It was originally such an idea. Later, when I think about the current situation, the Han Dynasty is an era where men farm and women weave, and agriculture and mulberry are the foundation. If the price is set high, the silk that can be sold is those high-end silks. In the end, the money Who will fall into the hands, we can almost guess, in this case, it is better to give it to the common people." Chen Xi looked at the report indifferently, then handed it to Yuan Yin, and sent him to copy a copy as a backup , then turned to look at Jia Xu and said.

　Cough cough cough, went to play a game, there is no way, please forgive me...
