Chapter 318: Are we going to have to spend money here again?



Auctions are a long-standing tradition in Dongning!

Back when it was still in Dongning City, the exclusive rights were auctioned off.

The auction at that time provided Dongning with unprecedented food and supplies, enabling Dongning to have sufficient reserves to march its army into the pass and pacify the Central Plains.

And now, the auction pre-heating has started again in Beijing.

"Extra! Extra! The auction for the leasing of shops at Beijing Railway Station is scheduled for the 20th of the twelfth lunar month!"

"Prime location, excellent prospects!"

Don't miss it!

"Extra number! Extra number!"

Loud voices rang out throughout the capital.

The people on the street were all buying the "Beijing Daily" to see what was going on with the shop rental auction.

Immediately, the streets and alleys were abuzz with discussion.

"The shops at the train station?"

"Oh, I see! The railway construction team acquired the land not only for the construction of the train station, but also for these shops!"

"This location is absolutely fantastic! With the train station now open, the journey to Jinghai will be very fast. And in a few years, once the train lines connecting Beijing to Liaodong, Jiangnan, and the Central Plains are completed, won't its status be even better!"

"Sigh, the price probably won't be cheap either!"

"For ordinary people like us, what business do you even think about? What kind of business can you do?"

"That's true! But watching the fun is always an option, isn't it?"

...

Discussions abound in the streets and alleys.

These discussions also reached the top-tier room on the third floor of the Fumanlou Inn.

An auction?

A foreign merchant, his eyes narrowed, asked with a smile, "What is the new emperor of the Great Gan Kingdom going to auction this time?"

"Heh! We really had to pay a hefty price back then!"

This man was none other than...

It was Nasr Noh who had won the bid for the operating rights of the Persian region and also secured the arms purchases!

"prince,"

The servant beside him bowed respectfully and said, "This is a news item from today's Beijing Daily, saying that the leasehold rights for shops at the train station are being auctioned off."

"Train station? Shops?"

Upon hearing these two words, Nasr Noh frowned slightly, took the newspaper, and looked at its contents.

In addition to the auction information, the newspaper also included a brief map at the bottom.

The map clearly shows the locations of Beijing West Railway Station and Beijing East Railway Station.

The text also includes descriptions of Beijing West Railway Station, Beijing East Railway Station, and steam trains.

Steam train?

Suddenly, Nasr Nuh recalled the discussions among the people on the streets when he first arrived in the capital.

It seems I really need to experience the charm of steam trains!

According to the description, steam trains had a large carrying capacity and high speed!

It's even more amazing than the canal!

In that case, the shops at the train station will definitely have a lot of business!

Thinking it over, Nasr Nuh helplessly shrugged and said, "It seems the new emperor is going to make us spend money here again!"

"Go and learn about steam trains, shops, and other related matters, and try to gather as much detailed information as possible."

"Besides Beijing West Station and Beijing East Station, we also need to keep an eye on gathering information from Jinghai City."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The servant quickly responded.

Nasr Nuh stretched and, with the help of his maids, put on his clothes.

"Let's go to the palace and meet the new emperor!"

Nasr Noh smiled and walked outside.

This time, the Great Gan Kingdom is no longer the same as it was in Dongning City.

Back in Dongning City, the Da Gan Kingdom was nominally ruled by Li Ming, while the current Emperor Li Xin was merely the Prince of Xin in Dongning City, and was opposing the imperial court.

Once again, Prince Xin, Li Xin, has grown into the new emperor of the entire Daqian Kingdom!

Although the northern part of Da Gan Kingdom is still fighting against grassland bandits.

However, all the provinces of the Great Gan Kingdom have been pacified.

The entire Great Gan Kingdom is the territory of the new Emperor Li Xin!

Such a significant change was something Nasr Noh had truly not anticipated.

However, when Nasr Nuh thought of the new guns and cannons on the Dagang side, he felt somewhat at ease.

With such powerful guns and cannons, it's only natural that we could take over this small area!

It should be noted that after purchasing those guns and cannons, Nasr Nuh also built a formidable army within Persia.

Expanding territory and becoming powerful!

In a short period of time, it has become a huge force influencing the fate of the Persian Empire!

Nasr Nuh also wanted to obtain a batch of new guns and cannons from the Dagang Kingdom to expand his army.

Once the army is increased, conquering the entire Persian Empire will be a natural progression!

Thinking of this, Nasr Noh felt a surge of excitement.

I'm even more excited about coming here this time!

Before long, Nasr Nuh and his entourage entered the palace.

Looking at the red walls, yellow tiles, and magnificent Forbidden City around him, Nasr Nuh was speechless.

This was Nasr Nuh's first time in the capital of the Great Gan Kingdom, and the magnificent palace left him completely stunned.

As expected of the Celestial Empire!

Even this imperial city is so magnificent!

It certainly doesn't look like the shabby palace of the Persian Kingdom!

It seems that once I take control of the Persian Empire, I will also build a magnificent palace!

After walking a distance inside the palace, Nasr Nuh arrived outside the Wuying Hall.

The guards on duty immediately went to report.

A short while later, a guard approached Nasr Nuh and announced loudly, "His Majesty requests your presence!"

Nasr Nuh straightened his clothes and strode towards the Wuying Hall.

Upon entering the Wuying Hall, Nasr Nuh saw a familiar figure sitting cross-legged on the royal couch, carefully examining a document.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Nasr Noh bowed slightly in greeting.

"oh."

Li Xin looked up and saw Nasr Noh. He smiled slightly and said, "Noh, you've come."

"Please have a seat. I'll finish processing this document first!"

As he spoke, Li Xin picked up a pen and began to write and draw on the document.

Before long, all the documents in front of him had been processed. Li Xin stared at the staff officer beside him and said, "The matter of expanding the army must be handled as soon as possible!"

"Furthermore, although peace has been restored throughout the Great Gan Kingdom, the training of the local armies cannot be neglected. After the spring, the garrisons in various regions will be inspected, and the commanders at all levels must earnestly assume their responsibilities!"

"Anyone whose combat strength declines will be held accountable, including their commander!"

"yes!"

The staff officer beside him quickly agreed.

After the staff officer left, Li Xin turned to look at Nasr Nuh beside him and said with a smile, "Nuh, the various parts of Daqian Kingdom have just been recovered, there are too many things to do, alas, I can't be in two places at once!"
