Chapter 32-Fooling Ying Zheng! 2/7 (New book!)
In the courtyard of the mansion.
Kong Yu had already changed into a new Confucian robe.
He was sitting in the pavilion, looking at Ying Zheng and Wang Ben with a smile.
"Old Zhao, your information is really good. You found out where I live so quickly?”Kong Yu asked with a smile.
Ying Zheng shook his head with a smile and said," That's not it. It's just that the commotion outside your mansion today was too big. I happened to pass by here, and saw it."”
As he spoke, Ying Zheng pointed at the entrance of the mansion.
Then he smiled and said,"Brother Kong, you're really good at convincing people with virtue."”
"Haha!"
Kong Yu laughed loudly, then led Ying Zheng and Wang Ben into the pavilion.
He also asked the maid to bring some pastries and wine.
"I've made a fool of myself in front of the two of you." "Why are you two so free today?" Kong Yu asked after taking his seat.”
Ying Zheng shook his head slightly.
It was impossible to be idle.
Every day, hundreds of catties of memorials were sent to Xianyang Palace from all over the world. How could it be idle?
However, he had spent half the night looking at the world map.
Ying Zheng couldn't let it go.
If it was really as Kong Yu said, and there was such a vast world outside, how could he not go and experience it?
Therefore, after the morning court session ended today, he did not read through the memorials for the first time.
Instead, he wanted to confirm with Kong Yu.
He wanted to confirm if there was really such a vast world outside Great Qin.
"After returning home yesterday, I had someone copy the world map drawn by Brother Kong and hang it up.”
"I have some feelings in my heart, so I came to ask for advice today.”
"Are there really so many worlds outside of Great Qin?”
"Brother Kong, don't misunderstand. As a merchant, if you can open up a trade route, that's the best way to profit.”
Ying Zheng found himself a very reasonable excuse.
Of course, he wanted to get some information from Kong Yu.
"Haha." Kong Yu smiled and picked up the wine cup in front of him. Then, he said,"Old Zhao, do you think I'm lying to you?”
"In that case, let me tell you.”
"Let's talk about the Peacock Dynasty, which is the closest to Great Qin.”
Kong Yu dipped his finger into the wine in the wine cup and drew a picture of the Peacock Dynasty.
"After Great Qin passes through the Western Regions and the Cong Mountains, it is the Peacock Dynasty.”
"The Peacock Dynasty has a larger population than the Great Qin Empire, and its land area is also slightly larger.”Kong Yu said.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly. He remembered that Kong Yu had said the same thing yesterday.
This was in line with what he said yesterday.
"The economy of the Peacock Dynasty is developed and rich in natural resources. Moreover, the grain here can be harvested three times a year!”Kong Yu extended his finger.
Three times!
Both Ying Zheng and Wang Ben were shocked.
He had long heard that the Chu Country was rich. The reason why it was rich was because the Chu Country could harvest twice a year.
However, he had never heard of a place where food could be harvested three times.
"You must be lying." Wang Ben pursed his lips and said,"In the rich land of Old Chu, there are only two harvests a year. How can there be three harvests?”
Kong Yu gave Wang Ben an ignorant look.
"What do you know as a farmer? Do you know what the equator is? There was no winter there, and it was as warm as summer all year round. So what if they harvested three times? Moreover, not only did they harvest three times, but their food production was also several times greater than Great Qin's!”
"Otherwise, why do you think they can afford to feed nearly 30 million people?”Kong Yu said.
No winter?
The whole year was like summer?
Both Ying Zheng and Wang Ben were stunned.
As a citizen of Qin, he lived in a bitter and cold place.
It was hard for the two of them to imagine what it would be like without winter.
The weather in Chu was warm. Although it rarely snowed in winter, one could still feel the cold air pressing down on them.
But the Peacock Dynasty that Kong Yu mentioned had no winter? Summer all year round?
Ying Zheng could not help but fall into deep thought.
if the.
He said if.
If Great Qin could have that place…
Then the Qin country would no longer lack food.
At the thought of this, Ying Zheng could not help but feel a burning flame burning in his heart.
"Then Brother Kong, with Great Qin's strength, can we attack it? Occupy the land?" Ying Zheng looked at Kong Yu and asked.
This time, Kong Yu took a sip of wine and shook his head lightly,""I'm afraid not."
Hearing Kong Yu's rejection, Wang Ben was displeased.
Wasn't this questioning the combat strength of the Qin army?
Wasn't it just a small Peacock Dynasty? If the six dynasties were destroyed, how could they not destroy the Peacock Dynasty?
Deal with him!
"I don't want to hear that. Why not?”
"Great Qin has millions of soldiers, so why can't we destroy it?”Wang Ben retorted.
"Tsk tsk!" "You're just a farmer, you know what I'm talking about?" Kong Yu asked.”
Wang Ben was speechless.
I'm a general!
I'm the Great Qin's Martial Lord!
Wang Ben shouted in his heart.
However, he did not dare to say this out loud.
Because before they came here, Ying Zheng had already instructed them not to reveal their identities.
"Do you think destroying a country and fighting a war is a joke? Not to mention how far away Great Qin was from the Peacock Dynasty.”
"Haven't you heard of the saying that internal stability is the first thing to do when resisting foreign aggression?”
"You haven't even dealt with the enemy at your own doorstep, and you want to attack the enemy thousands of miles away. Isn't this a joke?”
"Moreover, our Emperor is busy searching for immortals in the East Sea. Do you still expect him to send troops to attack the Peacock Dynasty?”Kong Yu said.
According to the course of history.
It was time for Ying Zheng to start his eastern voyage to search for immortals.
The Great Qin Empire was already not rich, and if they let Ying Zheng go through two more rounds, how could they have the spare energy to send troops to attack the Peacock Dynasty?
When Ying Zheng heard Kong Yu mention the search for immortals in the Eastern Sea, he did not show any surprise.
This matter was no secret in the imperial court.
Fu Su probably knew about it, so it was not strange for him to tell Kong Yu.
However, in Ying Zheng's opinion, going out to sea to search for immortals was a must.
The world was so big. If he wanted to completely conquer it, it would probably take decades.
However, he was almost fifty years old now, and his body was getting worse by the day.
If he could find immortal medicine and obtain longevity, he would have nothing to worry about.
Sooner or later, he would conquer the world.
"Brother Kong, if His Majesty finds immortals in the East Sea and obtains immortal medicine to live forever, Great Qin will never be destroyed. Although the world is huge, it will be conquered by Great Qin sooner or later.”
"I don't think there's anything wrong with Your Majesty going out to sea to search for immortals.”
At this moment, Ying Zheng brought salt for himself.
However, Kong Yu smiled.
"Searching for immortals?"
"Longevity?"
"Stop fooling around, okay?"
"Do you really think there are immortals in the East Sea? Call Xu Fu over. I'll ask him personally if there are immortals in the East Sea.”
"That's because Ying Zheng was fooled by Xu Fu!" Kong Yu said with a smile.”
"If he really saw an immortal, why didn't he live forever?”
Ying Zheng: "???"
Wang Ben was speechless.
