Dahan Pirate Air Force
Chapter 450: The Brocade Collar
The story Lu Yusheng told made Zhang Bai stunned.
This story was indeed true and explained many things that he had never understood.
For example, why he killed a bunch of members of the Blood Hades Sect and took advantage of the situation to establish the Inpa Empire with Alexander, but the Blood Hades Sect did not retaliate.
Another example is that he killed people again and again in Shu Kingdom, and several people above the Dharma King level died. However, the Blood Underworld Sect was still willing to cooperate with him in the end, and even promoted himself to the Parade.
In short, many things are finally explained.
However, Lu Yusheng's story is not over yet.
Because there are really two cultivators among the monarchs of the Central Plains,
One is the former Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and the current Duke of Shanyang.This monarch, who had a rough life, had always been controlled by others. Although he practiced secretly, his cultivation level was extremely low.
At this time, Justice Shanyang was honestly being controlled by the Xue Ming Cult. He endured the revenge of killing his son and quietly acted as his doctor.
The other one is Cao Pi, who started practicing recently and does not obey the Blood Ming Sect.He has recruited a group of master monks, including a large number of people on the black list.
Lu Yusheng didn't know much about the specific people, he only knew that Queen Mother of the West was among them.
After hearing this, Zhang Bai was so surprised that he couldn't even close his mouth.
The Queen Mother of the West is the sister of the East Prince, and her strength is comparable to that of the East Prince.
She stood behind Cao Pi, which was a bit unexpected, but not surprising.The Blood Hades Sect tries to control the emperors one by one, just so that once they discover the God of Creation, they can directly take it into their own hands.
It seems that the Queen Mother of the West supported the Cao family just to prevent Cao Pi from being controlled by the Xue Ming Sect and to stop the Xue Ming Sect's attempt to control all important emperors.
After learning this, Zhang Bai became even more curious.
Under such circumstances, why did Cao Pi have to go south?Isn't it good to squat in Luoyang, Xuchang? Is it related to the struggle between the two factions?
As a result, Lu Yusheng's answer almost made his jaw drop. The Lu family actually had quite a connection with the Cao family, and Lu Xun had always hoped to get Sun Quan to change his mind and leave the Blood Ming Sect.
Zhang Bai was almost dumbfounded. He didn't expect Lu Xun to have such thoughts in private. Lu Xun wouldn't suddenly surrender to Wei, would he?The timeline of this world has indeed changed.
"So is Governor Lu a member of Cao Pi? Or who is behind Cao Pi? There can't be only one Queen Mother of the West, right?" Zhang Bai asked.
"I don't know about this either. I can help introduce the head of the family. How about you ask him directly?" Lu Yusheng was more direct, but Zhang Bai smiled.
He smiled a little sheepishly, "No, no, I've already made arrangements myself. It won't be long before Governor Lu will take the initiative to see me."
Lu Yusheng looked at him in disbelief, his eyes widening.
......
Two days later, Zhang Bai arrived at Lu Xun's camp.
The reason for being late was not because Zhang Bai was showing off, but because he had to explain the situation to Sun Quan and ask for his permission.
As expected, Sun Quan spent a day thinking about it before agreeing to Zhang Baicheng's trip.
Zhang Bai was secretly glad that Sun Quan was a strong man, and he and Lu Xun were indeed not monolithic.
The first time he saw Lu Xun, Zhang Bai felt a deep pressure.This kind of pressure is not caused by cultivation, but comes from the temperament of the superior and the sharpness of the wise man's mind.
But Lu Xun felt another kind of pressure, the pressure caused by pure cultivation.
He frowned, then looked relieved, turned to the attendant beside him and said: "Serve tea, I want to have a conversation with Zhang and ask for advice on side affairs. Go and invite the Taoist priest to join us!"
Lu Xun spoke calmly, as if everything was normal.
Zhang Bai did not dare to be careless, and wondered in his heart: "Taoist Priest? Who is he again?"
However, on the surface, he just pretended not to notice, stood up from his seat, and said with a silly smile: "The Governor is polite, my nephew is just listening to the advice."
Lu Xun waved his hand, meaning not to mind, and made a gesture to sit down.
The two sat down again, and Lu Xun asked enthusiastically: "I heard that my nephew has lived in the Western Regions for a long time, and his official position is as the General of Zhennan in the Shu Kingdom. Recently, he has met the rebels in the South and has gained extensive knowledge. You have been in the Kingdom of Wu for a long time, and you don't know the peace between the Kingdom of Wu and the Kingdom of Wu." Compared with other countries, what are the differences?"
Zhang Bai rolled his eyes and replied with a smile: "My nephew has been away from home since he was a child, and his life is difficult. What he is best at is not fighting, but doing business to survive. The governor knows thousands of miles, and you are not unfamiliar with vulgar things. How about you?" Let me tell you some business experience!"
Lu Xun couldn't help but smile when he heard this, "Okay! Let's talk about business."
Zhang Bai straightened his back and spoke like a storyteller.
"It is said that the Western Region is far away, with a vast territory and sparsely populated areas. There are snow-capped mountains blocking roads and the Ganges River blocking roads. There are few people and many horses there. Many countries are divided and attack each other."
"The big countries include Rome, Impa, Sasanian Persia, Egypt, etc., and there are also some brave tribes who don't care about life and death and only care about war, such as Gaul, Germania, Saxony, etc. Small countries such as the Sugar Cane Empire, Armenia, etc. They have been fighting against each other for many years. They kill, and when they win, they rob the other party’s property, and they also plunder people and sell them as slaves to distant places.”
"Most of these countries and tribes rely on meat and wheat as their staple food. They need spices to help preserve their meat, and they lack precious clothing materials. They are very fond of silk from the Central Plains. Instead of trading, it is best to exchange silk brocade for their fine horses. The West is rich in gold, and there are many There are slaves, and these can also be traded.”
"The southeastern part of the Western Region, detouring around the snow-capped mountains and plateaus, is the Indian subcontinent and South Central. These places are usually hot and humid, and there are many diseases. You must master special medicines to treat diseases before you can travel."
"Rice in these places ripens four times a year and grows rapidly, but the local people are not hardworking and have no knowledge of farming, so the yield is very low. The local specialties are bamboo, wood, copper and iron, elephants, cotton, etc., and they prefer to use them in exchange for our iron tools and linen."
"As for the Kingdom of Shu, I guess you also know the general situation. The Kingdom of Shu has a lot of Shu brocade and silk, which can almost be used to replace coins. If there is something that the Kingdom of Shu lacks, then...hehe!"
Zhang Bai laughed twice and said, "The Kingdom of Shu lacks everything!"
"Okay!" Lu Xun heard this interestingly and shouted "ok".
"From your business experience, I can tell that you had a hard time in the early years. I can also tell that you have made a lot of money now, right?"
Zhang Bai reacted like a conditioned reflex, and immediately cried and said: "How can I have so much money! It's a long way back to the Central Plains from the Western Regions, so I spent it all as travel expenses. I had to sell horses to make a living in Chengdu, and then I got an official position, and then I got better. I want to I say, it is better to make money than to save money, and it is better to be an official than to make money."
Lu Xun frowned a little when he heard this. After all, he was a member of the noble family and did not like the vulgarity of becoming an official just to make money.
Zhang Bai observed the words and expressions, and his tone of voice immediately changed direction unconsciously.
"In the final analysis, making money is a common thing. Only when you are an official can you become famous, serve the country, and benefit the people. The country is picturesque, and it cannot be compared to a square inch." After finishing speaking, he looked at Lu Xun.
Lu Xun then raised his eyebrows and nodded in agreement.
This story was indeed true and explained many things that he had never understood.
For example, why he killed a bunch of members of the Blood Hades Sect and took advantage of the situation to establish the Inpa Empire with Alexander, but the Blood Hades Sect did not retaliate.
