If the Tang Empire won, it would say to its opponents: "You damn well behave yourself in the future, or be careful that I wipe out your entire clan. Pay tribute obediently every year!"
<...Qin E became wary: "Who exactly are you people?"
Burgan looked fierce: "Since you've started to have doubts, I can't let you live!"
"This is Tokyo, where you cannot act recklessly."
Burgan chuckled sinisterly, "Heh, you little wench, I've killed more people than you've seen pigs. What's there to be afraid of!"
"Bulgan, stop acting recklessly!"
"Young Master, this little wench seems to suspect us. We can't let her live!"
Looking at his loyal subordinate who was actually dumber than a pig, Barshu wanted nothing more than to slap him a few times.
This is Tokyo, and that idiot Burgan is used to using violence to solve everything, having been in the army for so long.
If the authorities are alerted, it will be troublesome!
"Step back!"
"Young Master!"
"You're not very bright, so don't get involved in giving advice. But when it comes to fighting, you'll be there for the fight!"
"Alright, young master."
Barshu turned around and smiled at Qin E, saying, "I'm sorry, Miss Qin, my bodyguard has a bit of a mental problem. Please forgive him!"
Qin E didn't feel comfortable asking any more questions.
So the group continued to stroll around Tokyo.
"Miss Qin, I come from Gaochang in the Northwest. If I wish to stay in Dongjing City, do you have any good suggestions?"
"It's very simple for foreign merchants to stay in Tokyo. They just need to register at the Foreign Trade Office, and the government will issue them an identity certificate. This way, they can find work or open a trading company in Tokyo."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, unlike the previous dynasty, the Song Dynasty is very tolerant of the movement of people from different regions. Since the current emperor ascended the throne, he has embraced all rivers and lakes, as long as people abide by the laws of the Song Dynasty."
"If the Hu people live in Tokyo, will they have conflicts with the Han people?" Barshu was somewhat worried. "I heard that there was a rebellion of the Yi people in Guangnan East Road this year."
"The city of Tokyo was very accepting of the Hu people. Many Han women intermarried with Hu people, and many Hu women married Han men."
"Then what do you think I should do to survive here?"
Burgan, who was listening from the side, felt increasingly uneasy.
They were clearly here to scout out enemy positions, so why does it sound like our young master is going to stay in Tokyo?
"Surviving in Tokyo? That's not difficult. If you don't have any money, you can find a job: a transport coachman, a worker digging in the mountains, a farmer clearing fields, a boatman. If you can write, compose poems and lyrics, you can also become a columnist at Liuyun Pavilion. Of course, if you have a deep understanding of literature, you can also work for the Tokyo Express. However, recently, the government has also opened up some qualifications for private newspapers. You can go to a private newspaper, where the chances of finding a job are much higher."
"If you have the funds, you can establish a trading company and assemble a caravan. The imperial court is currently undertaking large-scale construction, and the demand for transportation is increasing day by day. You can also open a restaurant. There are many Hu people in the capital city who have established themselves here by cooking their hometown dishes. The current emperor also loves food. The people of the Song Dynasty love food more than any other dynasty in history."
After listening to Qin E's explanation, Ba Ershu's confidence increased.
Qin E added, "Speaking of food, recently Mr. Ye Chong of Huaxing Trading Company established a food delivery team called 'Ele.me,' which is quite popular."
"What does 'Are you hungry?' sound like it's asking me if I want to eat?"
Burgan, who was standing to the side, also became interested and pricked up his ears to listen.
It turns out that "Ele.me" is a food delivery team. What exactly is food delivery?
Some people don't want to go out, but they want to eat sweet and sour fish at Chunfenglou. So they call out "Are you hungry?" at their doorstep, and someone will answer and run over to ask what they want to eat, write it down, and quickly ride a horse to Chunfenglou to prepare the sweet and sour fish and deliver it to them.
Holy crap!
Barshu was shocked. Was there really such a way to play?
Qin E introduced the place along the way.
Just then, an analysis report was delivered to the Imperial City Guard Headquarters.
He Liming was munching on a steamed bun when he smiled and said to his subordinates, "This prince from Gaochang wants to open a takeout company in the Song Dynasty? Interesting. Wasn't he here to scout?"
"Shangguan, I suspect this fellow has fallen for our Qin'e."
"Oh, this kid's giving up the throne for a beauty?"
"Shangguan, I think it's not just that he likes Qin E, he's fallen in love with our hot pot. Just today, he's already eaten hot pot three times."
"And football!"
"And sweet potatoes!"
"And the opera house!"
He Liming: "..."
"Continue to observe and ensure Qin E's safety. Arrest her if anything seems amiss."
"yes!"
Sima Junru, dressed in a green robe and wearing a black cloak, stepped down from the carriage and quickly entered the palace.
When he met the emperor, the emperor was telling the three-year-old prince Zhao Chun about the customs and culture of the Western Regions.
Inside the emperor's study, a huge world map hangs on the wall.
It is said that the emperor drew it based on Su Yu's "Records of Foreign Lands".
Sometimes Sima Junru felt that the emperor was knowledgeable about everything from astronomy to geography, and seemed to know everything about the world.
"Chun'er, do you remember? On this continent called Europe, there live some blond-haired, blue-eyed barbarians. They are fierce by nature and like to invade other countries. Around the time of the Warring States period, in this place called Macedonia, there was an ambitious young man named Alexander. He led his barbarian army from here all the way to the Ganges River in India, killing countless people and conquering vast lands."
"Among the barbarians of Europe, there has always been a saying that our East is a land of gold, and they have long coveted us, wanting to use force to attack us again for thousands of years."
