Iron Dynasty

The mission of the Eastern Empire is in Abbas?

Cambies showed a shocked look. For a long time, he had been unable to sleep at night, and his worries were Osman's business. He didn't expect him to suddenly win this opportunity.

Alsasi said: Ottoman and the Western countries have a lot of affinity, and they will definitely trust the West more than the Eastern Empire. Even if Saliman insists on his own opinion, other nobles will obstruct it, and this will become our opportunity.

Cambies took it for granted, and he still has not adapted to it. When did this world become a arena for the Eastern Empire and the European countries, and where did this place the Central Asian countries.

It's just that Arsasi collected some information from Persian merchants two days ago, and they said that the power of the Eastern Empire made him horrified.

Now Pamir's iron-clad battleship proves that the businessman did not lie.

In order not to be defeated in the war with the Ottoman Empire, we should enlist the support of the Eastern Empire, Arsasi, tomorrow we will leave for Abbas. I want to see the steel warships of the Eastern Empire with my own eyes.

Yes, Your Majesty, said Arthassi, bowing.

The next day, Cambes and Alsasi officially set off, and fifteen days later, the mighty court team arrived at Abbas.

Tang Wenjie, who had lived on Zhenwei for a month, was overjoyed when he learned that the Persian king had personally arrived at Abbas.

The closeness of the Persian king is enough to show that Persia attaches great importance to the empire, so he is very confident in this negotiation.

Ziheng, get ready, let's go meet the Persian king together. Tang Wenjie said, after the Persian king came to Abbas, they were ordered to meet.

In response, Fang Fang Heng counted the gifts presented to the Persian king, and then he and Tang Wenjie got off the battleship and entered Abbas City under the guidance of Bohemia.

At this time, Cambys and Arsasi were already waiting in the governor's palace. The two crossed the heavily guarded road and soon saw the Persian king.

Your Majesty the King, we are envoys from the Chinese Empire. The purpose of this trip is to establish good relations with Persia.

After all, Tang Wenjie turned sideways, and behind him were wooden boxes, which were opened one by one under his instruction.

Tang Wenjie said: This is a gift that our Emperor Xiao Ming personally selected for His Majesty the King. I hope His Majesty will accept it with a smile. It's just a small gift!

The moment the box was opened, the entire Governor's Palace seemed to light up, and the Persian nobles standing on both sides of the room took a deep breath, as if their hearts were pinched.

Cambis thought he had seen countless gems and gold, but after seeing the contents of the box, he still couldn't keep his peace.

He looked at Tang Wenjie with a calm face, and exclaimed in his heart: Is this a small gift?

After being shocked, Arsasi quickly returned to normal. He touched Cambies' arm to prevent Cambies from making a fool of himself in front of the envoys of the Eastern Empire. This was his responsibility.

Please bring my most sincere greetings to your Majesty the Emperor on my behalf, welcome to Persia, and you will receive our friendship. Cambies smiled.

His eyes swept across the bright gem-like gift, and then looked at other strange but extremely noble items and asked: The Persian merchants say that the Eastern Empire is a magical country, and there is no need to eat in this country. Grass, but steel monsters that transport tens of thousands of times more than camels, and many other strange, but very practical commodities, right?

This businessman is not lying.

Tang Wenjie took out a beautifully shaped glass mirror from the box and faced Cambis, This is a glass mirror. I can guarantee that there is no glass mirror in any country in the world that has our clarity.

Cambies saw himself clearly through the mirror that Tang Wenjie was holding, which surprised him a little, he had never seen himself so clearly before.

Putting down the mirror, Tang Wenjie asked someone to take out the pendulum clock from the box. The numbers on this pendulum clock were all Arabic numerals.

With a slight smile, he said, In our country, this is called a pendulum clock. Through the pendulum clock, we divide the day into twenty-four hours. Now the number on the pendulum is the current time.

Cambies naturally recognized the Arabic numerals above, and he once again marveled at the ability of the Eastern Empire.

Next, Tang Wenjie introduced the gifts they brought in detail, so that Cambis could understand the usage of these industrial products.

After Tang Wenjie's introduction, the Persian nobles on both sides were even more at odds. In their opinion, even one of these things would be invaluable in Persia. These gifts from the Eastern Empire were enough to buy ten Abbass.

Although Cambis is envious of these luxury goods, there is still a trace of sobriety in his mind, because he always believes that no matter how much wealth is not guaranteed by swords, it is vain.

After expressing his gratitude to Tang Wenjie again, he said: I believe that your presence this time must not only be to give me gifts. It is said that the West is now easing relations with the Ottomans, and soon they will sign a treaty in Greece. , this treaty seems to be against you.

Tang Wenjie's heart sank, he didn't expect the West to take action so quickly, and he said calmly: Your Majesty the king has misunderstood, to the empire, the European countries are just a bunch of clowns, and they are not worth a slap. The real purpose of coming to Persia is to establish good relations with Persia, as well as commercial and trade exchanges, and we hope that His Majesty the King will allow us to exploit black oil in Persia.

Black oil. Cambis frowned. This kind of black oil is a household name in Persia. In some areas, people often find this kind of black oil when they dig wells.

And this black oil is used in many ways in Persia. The roads in Taixifeng are paved with this black oil. In addition, black oil is also used in construction, medical treatment, lighting and warfare.

There is a projectile weapon on the ships of the Persian navy, which fires black oil that is ignited.

Is this all you want? Cambies was a little surprised. He thought that the Eastern Empire would instigate them to fight against the Ottomans and European countries.

Yes, this is the purpose of our coming here. We are willing to use the empire's industrial products in exchange for black oil, buy land to build oil mines, and hope that His Majesty the King will agree.

Hahaha... Cambis suddenly burst out laughing, Eastern Empire is really an interesting country, this kind of black oil is everywhere in my country, I can sell it to you, but you must tell me why you need black oil .
