Ye Qing stared at it, and at this time, the thick yellow air flowed, like smoke and haze, which was indeed the state of Sheji.
Ye Qingping withdrew his attendants and laid three sticks of incense on the jade statue. Without bowing, he bowed slightly and saw a flash of light. The emperor's daughter, dressed in a royal robe, walked in the palace, opened a window, and looked outside:
"Your Majesty, the dragon energy coming from all the states is already red and yellow, but your majesty's purple energy is steaming to a purple color, far exceeding that of previous generations. Congratulations to your majesty for completing an unprecedented feat."
"The Han family already has a system, but I just improved it. It will take a long time for the effect to be truly reflected. Breaking through the upper limit of dragon energy... If it just stays at the current level, the upper limit is light yellow..."
"My return is imminent, so I can only do this." At this point, Ye Qing smiled: "Twenty years as Emperor Zuo is not a short time."
When the emperor's daughter heard what this ethnic group said, she felt sad and melancholy. Finally, she nodded slightly and said, "I wish your majesty a smooth return, and I will also return to heaven."
Ye Qing was startled and asked: "Aren't you going to attend the Fairy Peach Banquet?"
"My time has come."
The emperor's daughter looked deeply at the emperor, as if she wanted to remember this man, and stepped back to the altar.
The ancient covenant emerged on her body, and the pre-Qin black and white crown dress gradually disintegrated in the torrent of red and yellow dragon energy, revealing the girl's body. She was no longer shy at this time, and a colorful palace dress appeared again.
"What are you?" Ye Qing stared at her changing clothes and suddenly realized something: "Is there something wrong with your covenant?"
The emperor's daughter nodded and said: "The flood came from the sky, and the legend of Nuwa mending the sky is actually the memory of the ethnic group's flood control. This is the beginning of the saint."
"At that time, my brother Fuxi and I survived the drift, and combined the legend of multiplication and the creation of humans from the soil. This was the beginning of the covenant... Although the body and I are one body, our heels are somewhat different, and we are the priests of the covenant."
"The gods of an era can develop only by surpassing the destiny of the contemporary era. In ancient times, the clan energy was black and white, and red energy could be developed through blood sacrifices. The golden covenant was invincible. But now the world is changing with each passing day, and the green energy has begun, and I have fallen behind.
"
"The people no longer need me, just like you. Now that the covenant is over, it's time for me to return to my true form. It's rare for gods to be immortal, and the same goes for me. Keeping me any longer will only be an obstacle."
The emperor's daughter looked melancholy and reluctantly said: "If the world of mortals is a dream, my dream is over and my family's fortune is prosperous, as I wish. This is a happy thing, isn't it?"
The prosperity she expected was her end...
Ye Qing opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was speechless for a moment.
"Anyway, I'm glad to meet someone of your ethnic origin. Goodbye...Ye Jun." She turned around and walked into the void, disappearing.
In the empty main hall, the jade sacrificial statues are still there, but they have lost their charm, while the torrent of national energy seems to break through the shackles and billow into the sky.
Ye Qing held his forehead and sat quietly alone in the hall for a while, watching the three pillars of incense burn out. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down, but he looked a little melancholy.
Xiyuan
"Sir, the new workshop area has arrived." The housekeeper outside said, opening the car curtain, revealing the green shade outside.
Not far along the boulevard is the wall of the Royal West Garden. In addition to the daily guards at the entrance, the road is blocked by the Red Armored Feather Army. From a distance, some carriages are entering one after another from a royal road.
"Is this the heavenly family coming?"
Ma Dai got out of the car and looked around. There was a faint beauty in gorgeous clothes, but there was no dragon spirit. He was not sure whether the emperor was there. Usually there would not be so many concubines visiting Xiyuan.
The steward leaned over and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty has been touring the country and returned to Beijing last month. He praised the Nangong Peach Garden for its fruitful fruits and wanted them to be enjoyed by all civil and military officials. Therefore, a peach banquet will be held in Xiyuan in the near future."
"For this matter, three queen mothers, He, Tang and Fu, came to arrange the banquet venue, accompanied by Empress Mi, Concubine Gan, Concubine Wu, Concubine Sun, Mrs. Da Qiao, Mrs. Xiao Qiao, Mrs. Wen Ji, etc... This is happening today.
"Luoyang Morning Post" said that the chief can see it by turning to the leisure and anecdotes section."
"Imitate the Queen Mother of the West's peach feast?"
Ma Dai thought to himself that he didn't dare to look at the emperor's family again as he entered the new workshop area.
There is a sign of "Kansai Cotton Cloth Shop" hanging on the gate, a plaque is wrapped in red silk, and fragments of bamboo shells of celebrating firecrackers are scattered on the ground. The festive atmosphere has not faded yet.
This new workshop, built to cope with the labor crisis, completely adopts the latest production equipment and environment. At this time, there is only a long row of carriages and horses waiting at the door. A large amount of cotton cloth is loaded onto the carriage and driven to the station. Through the latest
The Huoling steam locomotive was transferred westward...
The busy production scene in the western suburbs is just a microcosm of Luoyang's industry, while Luoyang is a microcosm of China. The beauty of the uniform is called Hua, and the prosperity of the country is called Summer.
In this blooming summer, everyone has reversed their original destiny, and they are all continuing their predetermined destiny.
A few days later, the same restaurant opened next to Xiyuan. Led by Sun Quan, the representative of the Sun family, the Guanxi Chamber of Commerce was quickly held. This was a counterattack against the Guandong Chamber of Commerce.
When the meeting took a break, Ma Dai returned to a room downstairs and sighed: "It's a pity that my family joined the new dynasty a little late, leaving the Sun family, an outsider, to compete for the position of the Protectorate of the Western Regions. Of course, the Sun brothers have younger sisters.
Sun Shangxiang married Jinshang, and the status of this maternal relative cannot be compared to that of..."
"It's not all political."
The young clan brother following next to him is a recent graduate of Taipei University. He is learning many new courses and has a different view on the economy: "Politics also needs economic support. The Western Region is a series of small countries with a small market size and is dominated by our various countries.
The division of profits between countries has long been unable to support the dumping of products by the cotton shops in Guanlong and Luoyang. Half of the cotton cloth market is occupied - and the other half is cheaper local homespun cloth, which is produced and sold by itself, and does not join the market at all."
"In this case, we have reached our limit and our family's development is at a bottleneck. No matter how much support we get from the court, it may not be effective."
There is no market further west. It is said that in order to determine the whereabouts of the remnants of Xianbei and to find the Western Great Qin, which is said to have "all grown up and upright people, similar to China, so it is called Great Qin", the imperial court sent envoy Zhang Song to the west to eat.
When you reach the western border of Dashi, you will find a seasonal Red Sea, but further west there is no land, only a series of small islands, some of which have just emerged from the sea.
The world does not know that the evolution of the earth world has reached its limit. Ye Qing knows it in his heart, but he will not say it out loud.
In fact, if the earth had not evolved smoothly and attracted the power accumulated in the dark side like a magnet, this great eclipse would never have evolved.
There is a grassland in the northwest. It is said that it is the same fertile black land as Liaodong, but there are no Daqin people with the same black hair as in the rumors. They are all blond and red-haired barbarians.
Xunpan communication network, Huoling Steam Engine Workshop, railways, and the Daofa Revolution triggered the violent expansion of the new empire, breaking through geographical restrictions in a short period of time, and this world was almost developed to its limit.
"Perhaps we can lobby the imperial court to conquer the big food country in the west. The big food country has a huge market. Unfortunately, it is only willing to pay tribute as a courtesy and has not yet opened the market, allowing us to dump it."
"The empire may use force to forcefully open the market for dumping..." an aide suggested. Newspapers reported that the single-track tracks of the Longxi Line had been laid to Yumen Pass. These were all vaguely advocating for war.
Ma Dai had served in the army and had war experience, so he shook his head: "It's not that easy. Not to mention that the two-way track has not yet been laid. After going deep into the Western Region, the wind and sand became more intense. It was measured that nine wind vent areas can blow over the entire railway track and even the train.
The permanent wind and sand prevention array has not yet been built, and these are practical difficulties that may take another ten years to resolve."
"The Dashi Kingdom is not a small tribe of Goguryeo, but its national power is not inferior to that of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is thousands of miles away. The Western Region Protectorate alone cannot support the expeditionary army at all. It must rely on inland resources for support."
"Without railway transportation, the losses would have been huge... The cabinet bosses would break a penny into two cents and would never agree to a large-scale expedition without railways."
"In the Luoyang newspapers, some people are advocating war against Dashi, but they are all civilians hoping to reap the dividends of the war."
"Even if there is some official color, or His Majesty is just preparing to use troops on a small scale and train the army in turns, there is no reason to stop national war in the short term. The empire will not use troops every day. It is necessary to maintain a low-intensity war, but it will not help our cotton bank to open the market.
, I’m afraid that the cotton market for Dashi will shrink even after the war begins, and we have to prevent the transfer of profits.”
Ma Dai kept calculating the situation. Unlike his brother, who was good at martial arts, he had some wisdom in running family businesses. He paid close attention to the situation in various places and could judge the value of the court's trends: "We can't count on the west for the time being, and we can't enter the Central Plains."
, the grassland to the north is also the territory of various vassals, and my Ma family won’t be able to eat this meat since I arrived late, so I have to think about the emerging markets on the border, you can discuss it. "
Several customers looked at each other and couldn't help but follow the conversation: "I heard that there is a huge demand for cotton clothes in Liaodong recently, and it is an important border area. The imperial court will definitely not allow any cotton shop to monopolize it. Our Longxi cotton shop still has opportunities... As long as
Can the notoriety caused by this time be eliminated..."
"How can we contact and open up the situation...or can we ask the head of the family to contact Pao Ze in Liaodong?"
"Don't be so impatient yet, we haven't figured out the specific situation there yet."
"I am from Youzhou. I have some local connections. I also got some news about Liaodong from family letters..." one of them said.
Ma Dai raised his eyebrows and nodded for him to continue.
"Last year, new textile machines were formed, the price of thick cotton clothes dropped rapidly, and they were widely used in ordinary people's homes. This spark ignited the grassland, breaking through the restrictions on agricultural production and life in the cold zone, and triggered a trend of developing the Great Northern Wilderness. This is after the grassland, the Western Regions
The third emerging market after that...Master, this is an opportunity for our company to expand."
Ma Dai pondered for a moment and nodded: "It seems that I have to send a message to my brother to get support. My family joined the new dynasty late, missed the Central Plains market, missed the grassland market, and only caught up with the tail of the Western Region market, but we must not miss it again
Liaodong market..."
"Yes, the way to run a business is to follow the court closely at all times..." These people looked at each other and said in unison.
