Since entering Seleucus, the group felt that there was not enough to see.
Compared with some other small tribes, the civilization here is more complete. Basically, everything that the Qin Dynasty has is here, and there are also many things that the Qin Dynasty does not have.
They have no shortage of gold and silver, so when they see something they like, they buy it directly.
Seeing how rich they are, many people have tried to take advantage of them, but they were all dealt with.
Now everyone knows that this group of people are not easy to mess with. Anyone who wants to provoke them has been killed, and no one has escaped.
The strength of these people was unexpectedly strong, which made the messengers who came to lead the way very cautious and not dare to be careless in the slightest.
These people are the ones His Majesty the King wants to see. No matter what, take them to the capital first.
"Your Majesty, look, I bought a pair of ivory. It is much larger and of better quality than the ones sent by the Maurya Empire before." Wang Jian came over with a pair of white ivory. The ivory was very beautiful and could be used to carve many things.
"It's really good." Ying Zheng nodded, feeling a little dissatisfied with the envoys from the Maurya Dynasty. Those people actually dared to fool him with inferior ivory.
When I get back, I will tell my daughter about the war with the Maurya Empire.
Along the way, these people from the Qin Dynasty used gold to buy whatever they wanted, and there was no robbery or anything. The envoy felt a little more at ease with them.
These people are very powerful, and I don’t know whether their coming to Seleucus is a good thing?
With a worried mood, we soon arrived at the capital of Seleucus.
Looking at the royal capital here, Ying Zheng lost interest after just a moment's glance. The royal capital here was far inferior to the prosperity of Xianyang, and the architecture of the royal capital was not at all as magnificent and grand as the palaces of the Qin Dynasty.
Along the way, he compared the entire Seleucid Empire with the Qin Dynasty. He found that this place was inferior to the Qin Dynasty in every way. It would not be difficult to take it down if he went back.
The only bad thing is that this place is too far away from Daqin.
Regarding the current territory of the Qin Dynasty, his daughter has complained to him many times.
The current territory is difficult to govern. If more territories are conquered, they are too far away and Qin may not be able to digest them.
I heard that the Ministry of Industry is currently researching a tool for transmitting messages. Although some results have been achieved, the message can only be transmitted about a mile at most.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng's eagerness to expand his territory calmed down a little.
If it is conquered but cannot be governed, it still does not belong to the Qin Dynasty.
Those people in the Ministry of Industry are really useless. After all these years, they haven't come up with much useful stuff.
Of course, the Ministry of Industry has also produced some good things.
The Ministry of Industry is currently researching trains and is said to have made considerable progress. It should be put into use in two years and is currently under testing.
Moreover, the tracks used by the train require a large amount of iron, and the forging is not up to standard.
When he goes back, he should be able to take that train. I’m looking forward to it.
When Ying Zheng and his men entered the royal city, Antiochus III had already received the news and began to get excited.
He has already arranged a lot of troops to come to the current royal city.
These aliens are very powerful, so we must make more preparations.
Antiochus III was very excited. He had made all the necessary preparations and was just waiting for the foreigners to arrive.
Seleucus was adjacent to the Maurya Empire, so he knew something about what was happening in the Maurya Empire.
The things these foreigners took out were very similar to those obtained from the Maurya Empire. These were the foreigners who had frequent trade with the Maurya Empire.
The situation in the Central Plains is too far away and they don’t know it clearly.
But these foreigners were able to come to Seleucus, which also proved their strength.
He reigned for more than ten years and recovered most of the lost territories in the east. His strength made the people of Seleucus very supportive of him.
As an enterprising emperor, he was very sensitive to crises, and these foreigners made him feel a great sense of crisis.
Ying Zheng and his companions rested at the post station for two days, and then the messenger came to report that His Majesty the King would host a banquet for them the next day.
Ying Zheng listened to the messenger's words, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. Why are you saying this now?
During this period, through Gan Luo, Ying Zheng also learned a lot about the situation in Seleucus. Religion is prevalent here, and this king is still quite capable.
He was quite interested in this king. Of course, it would be better if this king had no hostility towards them.
The royal capital seemed bustling these days, but in fact, Ying Zheng and his men had long noticed that beneath this bustle, countless people were monitoring them.
The people of this country are still very poor. Although the nobles live a good life, those who come to buy things outside have bulging tendons and muscles, which are obviously the characteristics of elite soldiers who are trained frequently.
These people's hiding skills were so poor that Ying Zheng simply couldn't bear to watch them.
Time soon arrived on the day of the banquet, and Ying Zheng and his companions attended the banquet in their best attire.
The black crown and robes made him look particularly domineering.
"Gan Luo, what do you think of my outfit?" Wang Jian adjusted his armor and asked Gan Luo happily.
"Very good, the old general is still as majestic as before." Gan Luo chuckled.
"Do you know how to speak, kid? I am much more powerful now than when I was young." Wang Jian rolled his eyes at Gan Luo, then happily adjusted the sword at his waist.
"Yes, yes, I said the wrong thing. Please forgive me, Marquis Wucheng." Gan Luo apologized quickly.
