Remember the website of this site:. [Novel

Zhao Guo’s workers believe that a person with high virtues must be chosen to serve as their representatives, and this representative should have a certain influence, especially in terms of force.

And Zhao Guoshang's spirit has always been the most admired by Zhao people, so this also determines that they want to choose a soldier as their representatives. That is, the bsp of this country; several local military officers obviously have no such prestige. To this end, they chose the goal on the most prestigious general Li Mu in Zhao Guo

So the working class began to find an opportunity to contact Li Mu, and Li Mu didn't care about the election of the prime minister's election. In his eyes, this is a new trick from Qin Guo.

After all, Li Mu, who is agreed with advanced technology, has changed his view of weapons that the preliminary understanding technology of the original technology can increase the war power to a new height.

It is obviously not sensitive to politics Li Mu, but for Zhao Guo's interests, he believes that the so -called democratic politics problems of Qin Guo are very big, but where the specific problems are, he does not know after all. No such a so -called democratic politics, in all the so -called democratic politics, do not contact well.

And Zhao Guo's workers have regarded Li Mu as their only spokesperson for this reason. They started to actively go to Handan to petition Li Mu as the election of the new prime minister, but Li Mu was not in Handan at this time. Knowing

However, Zhao Guo's prime minister election made the other six countries feel excited, especially the Qi Guo's His Majesty Palace and the Warring States President of the Warring States Period. When I knew the news, Qin Guo had been elected and it was still a young man who had never heard of it.

However, they did not care much about Qin Guo's development. They were concerned about their own flying Huang Tengda and their own reputation of their own genres on the utilitarian heart of a country. [

Since Qin Guo's election has not caught up with Zhao Guo's election, they decided to go to Zhao Guo's trial. A strong stroke

For Zhao Guo’s election, other countries are not very concerned, especially Chu State and Yan Guo Yan Guo are busy with war and Chu State is like Qin Guo. It is similar to the openness, but no one went publicly to report this. This is incredible. This is a conspiracy. It is a bit confused that the king of Chu today is not the royal blood, but the son of Chunshenjun. Just treating him as a talk, not a matter of incident, but the conspirator treats him as a reason to turn the throne of Chu and has begun to prepare

Other Chu aristocrats are busy stepping up their strength to develop towards the south of the Yangtze River, especially in particular, especially they have re -found another road to get rich.

The Qin State's demand for slaves was very strong, especially in Basel, which had completed large-scale land annexation and development of new cultivated land; there was a small population but abundant land resources, especially cultivated land, and the large-scale expansion of new crops, especially rice and wheat. In the traditional strategy of the Qin State, Ba was the reserve granary of the State of Ba, so it was another important grain-producing area after the Hetao in the north, and it was also the most important commercial grain area of ​​the Qin State.

However, after the land annexation, the grain output in this area declined sharply, especially the disproportion between grain sowing and harvesting. This situation was mainly due to insufficient labor input. Due to the obstruction of the entire Qinling Mountains, some large agricultural machinery and equipment from the Qin State were unable to be transferred. To the Bashu area in the south, the mechanized agricultural operations in the Qin State and the Hetao area in the north had a large number of slaves transported by railway. However, the Bashu area was difficult to reach due to inconvenient transportation, especially slaves from the north. In addition, the local use of the Qin State Slaves are in great demand

Almost all of Qin's western railways were built by people from the Western Regions. Without these Westerners as prisoners of war, Qin would have been unable to complete such a huge amount of railway construction in just a few months.

In this way, the demand for railway construction consumed most of the slave supply, and the Bashu region in the south was faced with a situation where there were no slaves available. However, the Qin people still had their own way, which was to use force to obtain them nearby.

The local people in the Bashu region are mainly Ba people. These Ba people are naturally short, but most of these Ba people surrender to the Qin State. The Qin people cannot attack these areas, but the Qin State urgently needs a large number of slaves to meet the needs of agricultural production. Therefore, the Qin people Developing to the south again, Xiangnan is also a country that ostensibly surrenders to the Qin State. This country is the Yelang State. However, the Qin State's jurisdiction over the Yelang State seems to be very loose. In fact, this is also the case. During the turmoil at the end of Qin, the Yelang State quickly It escaped the control of the Qin Dynasty and did not return to its jurisdiction until the Han Dynasty.

It is such a country. The mercenaries of the Qin State, especially those who captured slaves, chose the Yelang Kingdom as an important source of slaves. However, the population in the south is relatively sparse and the Yelang Kingdom is close to some mountainous areas, which increases the cost of capturing slaves. The demand for slaves in the Bashu region was much higher than the supply. This supply slowly reached Jiangbei Port of Qin State in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

More and more merchant ships from Chu State are berthed at Qin State Wharf. Qin State Wharf is not only fast in loading and unloading, but also very convenient for berthing services and commercial trade. Especially in terms of information exchange, it is faster than Shouyang, the capital of Chu State. What does Qin State lack of Chu merchants? You will soon know that they have to do business with the Qin people to gain commercial benefits.

Soon the news that the Bashu region in the upper reaches was lacking a large number of slaves reached the docks. Especially the newspapers reported the matter. However, the Qin government paid very little attention to the matter, but the Chu businessmen were keen to see the business opportunities.

There are many Yue people in the southern part of the Chu State. The number of Yue people is also relatively large. However, the special climate and geographical environment of the south are not very suitable for fighting. This is something that the Chu State merchants do not want to see.

"The people of Qin need a large number of slaves in Bashu, at least this number." said a Chu businessman, holding out five fingers.

"Fifty thousand" another thin Chu businessman shouted

"Can fifty thousand be enough?" the Chu businessman said disdainfully [

"Could it be..." The thin Chu businessman shouted in surprise

"More than five hundred thousand," said the Chu businessman.

"So many" other Chu businessmen said in surprise

"Think about the Qin State's development in the south. I heard that arresting people there is particularly difficult. And there are so many Yue people in the south of the Chu State. How ignorant these Yue natives are. We might as well be like the Qin people. Anyway, we have our own hands nbsp; " The Chu businessman said excitedly

"This" businessmen began to hesitate

"Think about it carefully. The Qin people can even defeat the Huns in the north. Why can't we Chu people do that?" the Chu businessman said excitedly.

"And I've thought about it all." This Chu businessman obviously came prepared.

"This is a map of the Qin State." As he said this, the businessman took out a map of all China drawn by the Qin State. This map was drawn based on the huge sand table of the Qin State Staff Department, and as long as this area is the Qin State, The occupied areas have relatively detailed longitude and latitude coordinates, while the areas not controlled by the Qin State only have rough and rough mapping. However, this mapping has expanded people's horizons because people still don't know that the southern region, especially further south, can be reached through the ocean. places and connecting these south is the ocean

"This map clearly shows that there is a large area of ​​land to the south of our Wuyue region, and if you travel from the land, these lands will be rough mountains and rivers." After saying this, all the businessmen nodded in agreement.

"But these areas, especially the east side, are all sea. What do we rely on for food? We rely on boats. Our boats can go on the Yangtze River. Why don't we go from the sea to the land in the south?" The Chu merchant said loudly, and so the merchant Only then did I feel relieved

"Yes, we can bypass these mountains and land at sea. Then we can arrest people nearby and transport them to the Bashu area via the Yangtze River. Then we can transport the rice and grain from Bashu back to Chu State, or we can come to Jiangbei Port to transport the industries of Qin State. The profits for shipping goods back are many times greater," a businessman said excitedly.

"I said there's more to it than just think about it."

"In addition to these southern things, listen to Qin's newspapers about what other spices there are in the south. Women in Chu are in great demand. Not only can they buy them for those women, women in Qin also particularly like those perfumes in Qin. How high is the price? "A businessman stood up and said

"It's not just spices, it's also land. This land can grow tea and dry salt."
