Just when Yelu Shenxuan began to really notice the power of the muskets, the other two important officials of the Liao delegation, Shi Xuanwei and Xiao Tiannan, were sighing in admiration at the most prosperous Nanda Street Fang City in the capital.
Accustomed to the bitter cold of the grasslands, the two of them came to the capital, where people were rubbing shoulders and crowded with people. They felt shocked and novel.
"It's so lively here." Shi Xuanwei sighed.
Xiao Tiannan nodded and said: "In our Liao Kingdom, the prairie is already sparsely populated, and some tribes are not as prosperous as a village or town in the Qin Dynasty, let alone the capital. Even our royal capital, Langting, is far away.
It’s not as prosperous as the capital city, but everything here is much better than our Langting.”
Shi Xuanwei licked the corner of his mouth and said: "The people of Daqin are not worthy of having such a prosperous city. China is rich in resources and the conditions are much better than our prairie. There is nothing except cattle, sheep and grassland, and even many Chinese people
I have never even eaten fish in my life, but in Da Qin, these things are everywhere."
"No wonder the ancestors of all generations have wanted to get this treasure land of Da Qin. It is so rich and fertile. It is indeed much better than the grassland."
As the two walked around the city, their understanding of the prosperity of Da Qin was refreshed time and time again.
Their trip was not entirely to satisfy their own curiosity, but came with the mission of their respective masters, which was to let them see how much vitality Daqin still had after the natural disaster.
But obviously, they are hurt by the excitement of Neifang City in the capital today.
When I saw a rare jade in the world, the size of a baby's fist, for sale in a shop, I heard the quotes of one hundred taels, five hundred taels, and eight hundred taels coming from around me. These two
The country bumpkin from the prairie was deeply shocked.
Shi Xuanwei leaned close to Xiao Tiannan's ear, staring greedily at the beautiful piece of jade, and said: "It's just that there are such diluted treasures for sale among the people. It can be seen that Da Qin's national power is recovering very quickly. After returning,
We must report it to our respective masters."
Xiao Tiannan nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, the centipede insect dies but does not freeze."
Although the two of them were talking about serious things, their eyes were shining as they stared at the precious jade.
Everyone can see the strong greed and desire in their eyes.
However, the quotes around them that had soared to one thousand eight hundred taels made them instantly stop thinking.
There is no doubt that the Liao Kingdom was very strong militarily, but its economy was really weak.
One thousand eight hundred taels, not to mention the two of them, even Yelu Shenxuan would be choked if he took it out in one go.
What's more, this one thousand eight hundred taels is obviously not the highest price. For a jade of this quality, it can easily reach two thousand five hundred taels.
Just when Shi Xuanwei and Xiao Tiannan were about to leave with their heads down, a middle-aged man with a cheerful face, who looked very festive and spoke well appeared in front of them.
"You two, do you like that fast jade stone?"
The sudden appearance of this man aroused the alertness of Shi Xuanwei and Shi Xuanwei. Shi Xuanwei asked warily: "Who are you?"
"I, He Kun, like to make friends from all over the world. Because I always show up when my friends need me, I am called Timely Rain. Since you two like that piece of jade, this is easy to do."
With that said, He Kun raised his hand and said loudly: "Five thousand taels of silver, I, He, want this piece of jade. Please give me some face, friends."
