The weapon tycoon who traveled to Daqin

"In this matter, I think General Li Mu's approach is correct. After all, what is the use of having such barren land?" The congressman continued at this time.

"I object." At this moment, a thin young congressman stood up and looked at his age, that is, he was in his early twenties. How much money and prestige would it take to become a congressman at such an age?

.

"I think what the gentleman just said is wrong." The thin young man stood up and said loudly. Although his voice was a little childish, his tone was unquestionable at all. Such a young man behaved very strongly.

The young man's name is Zhang Ping. The reason why he can serve as a member of the House of Commons is because he inherited his father's inheritance. His father was a Korean and later made a fortune doing business in the State of Zhao and became a native of the State of Zhao.

His father accumulated a lot of money. After Zhang Ping inherited the inheritance, he ran for office as a member of the House of Commons.

"It is of great significance for Zhao to have his own colony. We should not see the negative effects of establishing this colony and ignore its positive aspects." Zhang Ping said.

"We have a colony. That colony is indeed very barren, and it was sold to us by the Mountain Qiang people. It may cause dissatisfaction among the Mountain Qiang people, but don't forget. Every year, the people of Qin can get a lot of money from the Mountain Qiang people.

The benefit, this benefit is trade. The trade between the Qin people and the border tribes is extremely unequal." Zhang Ping said loudly.

"This kind of asymmetry is very common. Let me give you an example." Zhang Sheng said, waving his arms.

"A musket, the most common flintlock gun, can't even be sold here for fifty and a half taels, I'm afraid. But when it comes to the mountain Qiang people, do you know how much a musket costs?" Zhang Sheng said loudly.

.

"It's hardware, hardware. The people of Qin are squeezing the blood and bones of the Qiang people in the mountains." Zhang Sheng said.

"So powerful, the Qin people are so ruthless. This, how many times the profit must be, no wonder. The Qin people are willing to expand like this, and if so, we can do the same. We are one gold or two gold cheaper than the Qin people.

Yes, such profits are also very considerable. I heard that from South Korea

The arsenal imports muskets, which are very cheap. Thirty-five and a half taels, and ten rounds of ammunition are also given. In this case, this mountain Qiang colony must be established." When other businessmen heard that they could make a profit, they immediately changed their minds.

Their unwilling attitude just now quickly turned to a supportive attitude.

"So, young man, let me ask you, what if there is a conflict with the Mountain Qiang people? You know, those Mountain Qiang people are very barbaric. If we occupy their land, they will attack together. In this case, we

In the end we will be unable to bear the losses and have to give up this land. What will we get in the end?" asked an elderly congressman.

"The land we bought is gone, and the money we spent is gone. What should we do? Do we still have to spend a lot of money to hire soldiers to fight for us?" The old man then asked.

"Old sir, let me ask you." Zhang Ping did not answer the old man's question.

"How do the people of Qin deal with such things?" Zhang Ping asked at this time.

"This. The people of Qin have not solved this problem themselves." The old gentleman replied.

"No, we can refer to what the Qin people did in the Western Regions. They did not directly attack the Western Regions people, especially the Dawan people. Instead, they encouraged the merchants to do it themselves. They withstood the Dawan people's attack.

After that, the business immediately turned in their favor. Why, because the other party knew how powerful they were. In other words, as long as we withstand the mountain Qiang people, or in other words, we can stabilize the current situation without fighting a battle, because the mountain Qiang people

The Qiang people have been fighting the Qin army for a long time, and they have not obtained any benefits at all. Under such circumstances, it is hard to say whether they will attack. Besides, we are just defending, defending, and letting the mountain Qiang people know that we are

After the resistance is over, we will negotiate peace. We can bring them great profits. More supplies can bring great help. In the face of such help, won't the mountain Qiang people not be tempted?"

Zhang Ping then asked.

"The purpose of the fight is not to wipe out the mountain Qiang people, but for trade, because trade is very beneficial to us. Currently, Zhao State produces a lot of iron, and more and more people are doing iron business. We can sell

To the mountain Qiang people. With such a supply, it is very beneficial to us. Everyone has business to do and money to make. Why don’t Russia and Japan get involved?" Zhang Ping asked.

"Moreover, this is the first colony of Zhao State. Zhao State has second, third, and fourth colonies, and there are already more colonies." Zhang Ping said.

"Our next step may not be to do business with the Qiang people in the mountains. Liaobei and Beihai in the north are doing business with the mountain people and the Huns. We can put it in North Korea to do business with the Goguryeo people. There are also the Western Regions and the Dawan people.

, Parthians, etc. As long as we can do business, we can bring huge profits. Everyone has money to make, and the government has taxes to collect. Why not support it? I think this is why the people of Qin are very happy to do this." Zhang Ping

analyzed.

"Yes. This young man is right." At this time, a congressman said softly.

"I read the newspapers. This news was first published in the newspapers of the Qin State. Later, our Zhao State newspapers reprinted the news, and the news came out. And the content said that it was the people of the Qin State who sent a telegram to General Li Mu. And Li Mu

Generals are soldiers and politicians, how could they know what we businessmen think?" the congressman said.

"War can be controlled. Even if we fight a war, we can also fight a limited war. The purpose of the war is not to continue the war, but to do business. Soldiers must serve us businessmen until the Qiang people in the mountains think it is very difficult for them to do business with us.

It’s fair to say that only in this way can we be stable and establish our first colony. With such a colony, it is the outpost of our trade and our rear. Aren’t we still willing to start our business?” Zhang Ping then asked

road.

"I think the people of Qin are definitely willing to do this kind of business with us. Why, because the people of Qin can get greater profits, including their railway construction. Otherwise, there would be no need for them to build railways." Zhang Ping

Then he said it. Everyone nodded in agreement.
