Harry said hello to Xia Xun, glanced at the two beauties next to Xia Xun, and nodded to them with a smile.【】
"Hello everyone!"
After Harry said hello to Xia Xun, he also said hello to the surrounding sandbank merchants. Tuoba Mingde asked deliberately: "I just saw that your Excellency seemed to be accompanied by General Suo Yaerha. Who are you?"
Harry smiled and said: "Oh, I am Soyalha's distant cousin. My name is Harry. I am a businessman. I would like to get to know everyone from the East. Through cooperation with you, I can expand my business to the East!"
Because there are mostly Han people here, every sentence he speaks will be paused, and his translator will say it to everyone again. The guests heard that he was Soyalha's cousin, but they did not dare to neglect and hurriedly asked him
He returned the courtesy and said hello, but because of this stranger, it was difficult for everyone to continue the conversation, so it ended temporarily. On the other side, the dignitaries of the city gathered around Suo Yaerha, complimenting and flattering them all the time.
, but loud laughter kept coming.
Harry blinked and smiled at Xia Xun: "Mr. Xia, what are you talking about? Can I join in? I want to know more about the East. I'm very interested in it."
"Are we..."
Xia Xun was a little hesitant after hearing this. What everyone was discussing was when Timur's army would launch an attack on the Ming Dynasty, how long the war would last, who would win and who would lose, how much damage it would cause here, and how to achieve good luck.
To avoid evil, how should you say these words to him? Regardless of whether he is the emperor's grandson Harry or the businessman Harry, these words are not easy to talk about in front of a pure Timurid Empire person.
Seeing that Xia Xun was hesitant, Tuoba Mingde took the initiative to take over the topic and said, "Mr. Harry, to be honest, we were just talking about the war between your country and the Ming Dynasty."
"oh?"
Harry looked interested, his lips slightly parted, showing his white teeth and said, "Are you speculating on who will win and who loses in this war?"
Even if the businessman next to him pretended to be indifferent and not paying attention to the conversation, he came closer unknowingly when he heard this and listened carefully with his ears raised.
Tuoba Mingde said: "No, Mr. Harry, we are just some businessmen from the Western Regions. We are not worried about the victory of the Ming Dynasty or your country. Frankly speaking, what we are most worried about is, what will the war bring to us?
"
His words resonated with the people around him, and some businessmen responded one after another. They hoped to get some more useful information from the cousin of the great official of the Timur Empire.
Ying Zhan knew Xia Xun's true identity. Hearing Tuoba Mingde's statement that they were just businessmen, pure businessmen, and did not have much sense of belonging to the Ming Dynasty, he couldn't help but glance at Xia Xun with some worry.
As the Duke of the Ming Dynasty and one of the commanders-in-chief of the Western Front of the Ming Dynasty, Ying Zhan was worried that the true mentality of these businessmen would anger Xia Xun. Even if it only made Xia Xun show obvious displeasure, Ying Zhan, as an insider, would also
Will be on tenterhooks.
But when he arrived at Xia Xun, he let go of his worries. Xia Xun gently shook his head with a glass of wine, tilted his head slightly, and was staring at Harry with interest. His behavior was no different from other businessmen, and he was even more focused.
.
Beside him, Siren and Jeanne were already chatting enthusiastically with Harry's black beauty Omi. Of course, there was no shortage of interpreters around them, but this did not affect their communication. They already looked very familiar.
Ying Zhan's heart moved, and he quickly glanced at his wife Miao Yi. Although Miao Yi still has a psychological shadow on Xia Xun, who looks very similar to Yang Xu, and is somewhat resistant to contact with him and the people around him, she is a businessman after all.
Coming from a noble family, she was completely aware of her husband's instructions, so she nodded imperceptibly and walked over.
After a brief self-introduction, she quickly integrated into the social circle of these women. Ying Zhan took a sip of wine with satisfaction. It can be seen that this Harry dotes on the black beauty, and whether it is in business or politics, the wife's route has
There is always a shortcut. If you need to use this Harry, establish a good relationship with his wife and you will be one step ahead of others.
Big shots are just that their power and status are higher than ordinary people, and they are better at concealing themselves in public. There is no need to imagine that they are almost no longer like a person, or to believe in the flattery and modification of people's writings, their emotions and
Ordinary people are no different, and even more intense. Dealing with them based on selfish desires is the same as dealing with ordinary people, and it is a sure-fire tactic.
When his attention returned to Harry, Harry was laughing loudly: "I don't think you need to worry about this problem at all!"
Harry said enthusiastically: "Many people think that our Emperor Timur is just like Genghis Khan back then. Wherever he goes, blood flows into the sea. They think that our army, like Genghis Khan's army, only knows how to destroy and not build, so
The place they passed by was like locusts crossing the border, and it was desolate. No, that's not the case at all. Those are all lies and lies spread by losers."
Harry's expression became serious and he said: "If you have been to Samarkand, you will find that the best artists, craftsmen and people in the world are gathered there. Our king values all the wealth created by mankind, not just material.
, poets, painters, craftsmen, doctors, all people who are profound in their fields will be treated like guests in Samarkand.
Genghis Khan was undoubtedly a great monarch, but his wars were mainly for the expansion of territory and the plunder of wealth, which is not the case with our Timur Empire. If you have a little understanding of our Timur Emperor, you
You will find that although our Khan has become invincible in the world and has become the king of the world, the territory he personally rules is not broad. Our Khan has defeated many countries, but he has not included them in his own territory.
The people there become his subjects, he just..."
Harry hesitated for a moment before coming up with a more tactful diplomatic statement: "You know, there are always monarchs of some countries in this world who are ignorant and cruel, believe in paganism, are hostile to us, or try to conquer us whenever they have the opportunity.
We, and our Khans, simply defeated them and crowned as king the man whose royal family had good intentions towards us, thereby establishing a kind of brotherly friendship between the two countries.”
Xia Xun took a sip of wine and "deeply agreed" with Harry's words. From the information he collected, Harry didn't lie, he just changed the facts to a more euphemistic way. The lame Tiemu'er
Although the number of countries he conquered was no less than that of Genghis Khan, he did not include all these lands into his own territory like Genghis Khan.
The territories he personally ruled have always been concentrated in Asia. Although his army was invincible in West Asia, South Asia, and Eastern Europe, he used the same method for all the countries he defeated: supporting puppets.
He selects an agent from the country's royal family and indirectly controls the country's politics, economy, military and religion through the agent.
This method undoubtedly has the least effort, but can achieve the greatest effect. As long as his country remains strong, he can always control those countries. If his empire weakens..., then even if he spent several times the effort to completely annex them,
What will happen if we come down? Isn’t it just like Genghis Khan’s great empire, which disappeared in an instant?
And this method is not complete destruction and plunder. Its method of wealth accumulation is also relatively mild. It uses its political influence and economic influence to promote the natural flow of local wealth to it. This is beneficial to those who are willing to join.
The vested interests of local dignitaries and wealthy people have much less influence, and the resistance and resistance they receive are naturally minimal.
The businessmen listened to Harry's explanation. Although they were still a little skeptical about what he said because of his unofficial status, their attitude was obviously much more relaxed: "In this case, joining the Tamerlane Empire doesn't seem so scary!"
When a large, freshly baked butter cake as tall as one person was pushed into the ballroom, the reception entered.
Since ancient times, it has been popular among Europeans to eat cake on their birthdays. They believe that a person’s birthday is the day when the soul is at its weakest and most vulnerable to being invaded by demons. Therefore, on this birthday, relatives and friends should be invited to gather around them.
Give blessings and make a cake to drive away evil spirits with the good luck it brings.
Today's birthday boy, Argus, walked forward happily, cut off a piece, and handed it to Soya Erha. Then the whole big cake was divided up, and all the distinguished guests had a share.
Xia Xun took one bite and put it down. Seeing Xilin and Jeanne eating with gusto, he couldn't help but smile and asked: "Is it delicious?"
Of course, the cake-making skills at that time were far inferior to those of later generations. The cake body was not soft enough, and the wheat sugar and honey sugar on top were too sweet. However, it seems that women are born with a fondness for sweets. Celine and Jeanne tasted cakes for the first time.
It looked delicious. When Xia Xun saw this, he handed over his plate of cakes and said, "Tomorrow we should buy another cook who can make Western-style meals. After we get back, we can call everyone in the family."
Try this exotic flavor!”
At this time, Yu Jian came back with dull eyes and fluttering legs, but the white beauty beside him was glowing and full of energy.
In fact, Yu Jian originally wanted to fight for three silver coins for one night, but although the ideal was beautiful, the reality was too cruel. He had been to brothels many times, but he had never seen such a coquettish woman. After being teased by her, Yu Jian
He let it go all the way. In the end, the beauty became sexually active and served him for free again, and then she let him go with satisfaction.
Yu Jian's legs were weak, and he moved to the music, as if he was dancing. He thought angrily: "Damn, this woman is too promiscuous! Damn it, should I use her or should she use me?
?No, I have to change it,"
Thinking in his heart, Yu Jian took a quick look. He suddenly came to Miao Yi who was chatting, laughing and eating with Omi, Xilin and others. Although it was just a figure from behind, she was quite charming. Compared to those white beauties,
Tall and tall, Miao Yi's figure is much smaller and more exquisite. Yu Jian's eyes couldn't help but light up: "A woman like this is easy to conquer!"
For a moment, he didn't notice that Miao Yi's dress was different from that of the wine girl You Ge was at the reception, who was waiting for a single man to come.
