Cao Cao's current situation is that he has more than enough ambition but not enough power. He could only smile bitterly and said: "The foundation of the Izumo Kingdom will be handed over to Ang'er in the future. Let him make this choice! Let's see who he wants to be. My ally, I hope he can strengthen my ancestors and lead the Cao family and your family to create a new path!"
Xun Yu thought for a while and said: "If the overseas continent is true, it will be a great thing for our Izumo country. It can be seen from the map that Izumo country is the first stop to go to the overseas continent. In the future, the overseas continent will become more and more important." Prosperous, Izumo Country will naturally become the core of overseas travels!"
Inside Luojing City.
When Zhen Xing saw the bustling scene here, he felt as if he was in another world. First, he could only see the sea for dozens of days, and his whole body seemed to be imprisoned. When encountering such a lively city, he would naturally feel excited from the inside. Second, Cao Cao built Luo Jing really well.
To be fair, Zhen Xing traveled through tens of thousands of miles of sea and passed through more than a dozen coastal cities. But there is really no city as prosperous as Luojing. It can be said that Luojing is not half as prosperous as Daqian. city, which is still very rare overseas. It can even be said that Luojing is the number one city overseas.
However, this prosperity seemed to Zhen Xing to have a sense of the times, as if he had returned to the world of the Han Dynasty again.
Zhen Xing experienced two eras, the Han Dynasty and the Qian Dynasty. When he was a child, the Han Dynasty had not yet perished. Although he had never been to Luoyang, the prosperity of Jizhou was not much worse than that of Luoyang.
So the scene here brought back memories of his childhood. Whether it was the construction of the city, the scenery around the streets, or the clothes worn by the people around him, they were all very similar to those of the big men back then. Even the noisy scholars on the street looked like the celebrities back then. Almost, it made him feel like he was a big man in his dream
"No wonder Luojing is called Little Luoyang. It really has the elegance of a big man. It's a pity that this era no longer belongs to the big man!"
Zhen Xing walked around Luojing, then found the location of Cui Mansion, and submitted a greeting card asking to see Cui Yan.
After Cui Yan learned about his old friend's contacts, he immediately ordered someone to invite Zhen Xing to the hall!
"Is your father okay now that you can see your old friends in Luojing?" Zhen An and Cui Yan are both from Jizhou, and the Zhen family is also considered a powerful family, so they have a lot of connections. Of course, the status of Zhen An and Cui Yan back then was very different.
It would be a joke for a celebrity like Cui Yan to get to know Zhen Xing. When Cui Yan came to see Zhen An, it was after Zhen An'an fell in love with Lei Gong. The nobles in Jizhou wanted to understand the movements of Da Qian. After taking a high look at Zhen An, the two parties got in touch and had some friendship.
Later, as the power of Da Qian became more and more powerful, Zhen An also rose up and became an important channel to communicate between Da Qian and Da Han. However, the Cui family was defeated because of Lei Gong's equalization, and the status of both parties became somewhat equal.
When Cui Yan led the branch of the Cui family to Izumo Country, Cui Yan asked Zhen An to find a way to contact various products of Daqian. With the connection of interests, the two sides have been very close.
Zhen Xing heard Cui Yan's words and replied: "My father has always been well. My nephew came to Izumo Country, and he specifically asked my nephew to come to see you!"
Cui Yan looked at him and smiled: "It seems you also want to go to the unknown continent?"
Zhen Xing nodded and said: "As long as my nephew finds the rubber tree, he can get a country from the governor. Our Zhen family will be squeezed into the upper echelons of Daqian. The Zhen family has reached its limit as a merchant. If we don't change, Due to my identity, I am afraid that I will be slaughtered as a fat pig by others!"
Cui Yan nodded and said: "You have some knowledge! Your Zhen family's wealth has indeed reached its limit. If you don't want to prosper and decline, you must find a way to become an official family. If you work hard like this, maybe you can find a way out for your family! I The Cui family's current strength at sea is not as good as your Zhen family's, and they can't help you much at sea, but among Luo Jing, my uncle still has some respect, so if you have any difficulties, you can tell him!"
But Zhen Xing shook his head and said: "We have only traveled a few thousand miles. If difficulties arise here, my nephew will not want to go to the New World!"
Zhen Xing had already made preparations when he was in Daqian. In Izumo Country, his ships could at most replenish some food and fresh water, but these things could be done with a little money, and there was no need to use the Cui family's connections at all.
Cui Yan nodded, and then said: "Izumo Country should be the most civilized place you can reach. During this time, my uncle will show you the lively places of Izumo!"
Zhen Xing thought that in the next few years he would be either on the sea or in the wilderness, and it would be extremely difficult to see any civilization at all, so he nodded in agreement.
Although Luojing is built after Luoyang City, there are also some new things, such as Daqian’s teahouses and theaters, and there is no shortage of resting places in Luojing!
Cui Yan was the one who brought Zhen Xing to the theater in Luojing. In Cui Yan's opinion, Zhen Xing and the others must have been very lonely and lonely after sailing on the sea for more than a month. She wanted to go see a lively place!
When they came to the theater, the opera performed in the theater was called "Meng Luo Lu". It told the story of a wealthy man named Wan who lived in peace and happiness in Luoyang City. Then the warrior Dong Zhuo and Lei Gong destroyed the prosperity of Luoyang City. Prince Wan has been in decline ever since. , the story of Mr. Wan returning to the dilapidated city of Luoyang after decades of downfall.
Zhen Xing was a little interested in watching this opera at most, but there were sounds of crying in many of Cui Yan's boxes, because in Zhen Xing's view, this was just a story, but in Cui Yan's view, this was reality, it was Their tragic fate over the past decades!
When Zhen Xing heard these crying sounds, he quickly understood that it was those people who were crying. In his heart, he looked down on Cui Yan and the others. They were still having such a dream and refused to face reality at all.
However, Cui Yan quickly recovered and laughed at himself: "Let my nephew laugh!"
After the end of "Meng Luo Lu", a new opera came out, and Zhen Xing heard that the soundtrack was actually "The Match of the Immortal" written by Zheng Zheng. This opera was arranged by Zheng Zheng, and it became extremely popular after it came out, and it spread all over the country. From north to south!
Zhen Xing didn’t expect that this opera could be seen in Izumo Country!
However, as the performance of the opera progressed, Zhen Xing was surprised to find that Izumo Country's "The Fairy Pair" had been adapted a lot!
In the drama of Daqian, in the end the people of the world rebelled because they were dissatisfied with the cruelty and unkindness of the Emperor of Heaven. Dong Yong followed the rebel army and attacked the Heavenly Court, defeated the Emperor of Heaven and stayed with his wife.
Here in Izumo Country, it was the Emperor of Heaven who was moved by the couple and married them!
"Why did it change to this? This is completely different from what we sang in Da Gan!"
