Chapter 394: Let you die quickly
If Heshen were in this situation, he would have to sign a series of unfair terms with the Nanqing Kingdom.
However, it was also thanks to Xu Huang's inexperience that he was able to sign a friendly treaty with the Kingdom of Nanqing for mutual trade between the two countries in the shortest possible time.
At the same time, Dugu Sheng made a solemn promise to them that he would set aside a street in the capital for the Qin people to do business.
He felt that he had taken advantage of Xu Huang and felt a little guilty, so to show his sincerity, he sent several guides to Xu Huang.
Let them go to other island countries and sign some trade agreements.
He believed that this would be a disguised way to compensate for the losses suffered by the Qin State.
Because mutual trade is beneficial to both countries.
Giving Qin only three million taels of gold every year can ensure peace of mind for the country and the people. Why not do it?
If Xu Huang knew what he was thinking, he would definitely scold him.
However, after Xu Huang saw the economic strength of Nanqing State, he had other ideas in his mind and said to Dugu Sheng:
"Lord, we also hope to build a barracks within your territory to serve as a maritime supply station for our Great Qin."
"We will send troops here from time to time to maintain peace among the nations, and at the same time protect the interests of your Nanqing Nation. What do you think?"
He spoke with great righteousness.
In fact, they just wanted to station troops in Nanqing Kingdom, so that Daqin could better control this place.
As the ruler of a country, how could Dugu Sheng not know the other party's implied meaning?
However, after thinking for a while, he still agreed to Xu Huang's request.
The reason is simple: the Nanqing State, which is not good at military force, really needs the care of the Qin State.
If the Qin Dynasty is angered, the Southern Qing Kingdom will probably face a catastrophic disaster.
As long as the Qin State really wants to engage in trade and not take the opportunity to invade the territory of the Nanqing State, things like stationing troops are not intolerable.
Xu Huang had not expected that the other party would agree so readily. He immediately smiled and said solemnly:
"You made a wise decision. Years later, you will be glad for it."
"Being an enemy of the Qin Dynasty will not lead to any good outcome, but being friends with the Qin Dynasty will bring many benefits."
At this time, the Black Whirlwind Li Kui standing behind him said carelessly: "General Xu is right, if you don't believe it."
"Just go ask around in Shenzhou Haotu. We, the Great Qin, never cheat our friends."
Dugu Sheng laughed and said, "I feel relieved after hearing what you two said."
Xu Huang stayed in Nanqing Kingdom for about four or five days, and then left with the letter from the Kingdom.
With the help of the guide arranged by Dugu Sheng, he led his army and found several island countries on the vast ocean in the shortest time.
I found that the resources here are extremely abundant.
There are some island countries that produce jade, but most of the local people have never been to sea and do not know the astonishingly high price of jade.
They are even discarded on the roadside like ordinary stones.
There are also some countries that are rich in iron and copper resources.
Looking at those minerals, Xu Huang almost drooled.
It can be predicted that after Daqin owns these iron and copper mines.
Every year, more killing weapons will be produced and put into the battlefield.
He even discovered oil on a smaller island.
And this island is a no-man's land.
When they first discovered oil, they thought this black, creamy substance was some kind of poisonous liquid.
But when an ordinary soldier accidentally dropped a spark onto the 'black paste', it was able to ignite it.
Coincidentally, perhaps the piece of oil that was accidentally ignited had its concentration increased and its ignition point lowered after being extracted by nature.
So, it can be ignited.
Maybe it's due to other reasons.
But no matter what, the fire was lit.
And it lasts forever.
Xu Huang stared at the oil and gradually a smile appeared on his face.
If all the refined petroleum is applied to the fireball, would it enhance the effect of the fireball in attacking the city?
Thinking of this, Xu Huang felt that the oil would be very useful.
So he sent three thousand soldiers to stay on the island.
Xu Huang planned to inform Ying Yuan and all the officials about the oil matter after returning to China.
Let them decide how to use the oil.
Including the time they set out from the Wei River until now, they have been drifting on the sea for several months.
But the so-called fairy island was never found.
Not to mention the fairy bamboo.
Xu Fu was extremely anxious.
He is on a six-month period.
He once told Ying Yuan that if he still couldn't find the fairy island within half a year, he would commit suicide to apologize.
Moreover, in a few months, winter will come.
By then, there will definitely be ice in many sea areas.
It is not conducive to sailing.
Even if there is no ice, who would look for a fairy island in the season of ice and snow?
If he can't find the magic bamboo and can't make the magic medicine for Ying Yuan according to the ancient recipe, he will definitely die.
When I saw Xu Huang calmly preparing to go to the next island country.
Xu Fu could no longer bear it and asked, "General, do you know why we came all the way here?"
Xu Huang said bluntly, "Of course, it's to sign trade agreements with various countries. Could it be that they're here to find your so-called fairy island and purple bamboo?"
