Two hundred and ninety-eighth chapter [Fan family's millennium business road next]

Bai Dong slowly drank tea and occasionally asked Yue Ji if he was used to living in Lao Qin. There were many kinds of flowers on the terrace, and I was a little confused. Can you briefly introduce me? It just doesn't matter. Anyway, he was not in a hurry. Fan Ti took the initiative to find him to cooperate. Not only did he call his ancestor "Tao Zhu Gong", but he also took the initiative to reveal Yue Ji's identity and put his posture very low. Since the initiative is in his own hands, then wait for Fan Ti to speak.

Fan Ti looked at Bai Dong and sighed leisurely: "When you meet someone as smart as Bai Zi, Fan will not go around the corner. The old Qin criminal law is more cruel than the world. After Wei Yang's transformation, several points were added. I heard that the river sand that lays the Wei River execution ground was used for thousands of cars, and the Meng family members tied to the execution ground had exceeded tens of thousands, but Qin Jun ordered Zuo Geng to stop it at the critical moment when Wei Yang was about to issue a killing order. Isn't that a strange thing?"

"Haha, this is why the Lord has become polite and kind. What's so strange? Old Qin is no more than Wei Qi people. He won't feel sorry for killing tens of thousands of people at once."

"If this is true, why did you not send me a letter sooner or later, but you have to wait until Wei Yang gave the order? This is clearly a master who advised Qin Jun to win the hearts of the Meng family. It's so scheming... If it were normal, Qin Jun would not be able to move the people to the Western Regions casually. Since it was pardoned for the death penalty of the Meng family, exiled them to the Western Regions would become a great favor. Even if more than one-third of the Meng family members could only survive, they would become the seeds of the old Qin in the Western Regions and become a bridge between the old Qin and the Rongs of the Western Regions..."

Fan Ti smiled slightly: "At that time, the old Qin caravans would be more likely to travel across the vast Western Regions, and even reach the Persian Empire and the distant Aegean Sea?"

"Do you still know the Aegean Sea?"

Bai Dong was finally moved. People in this era had a certain understanding of the Western Regions, and it was not uncommon to have even come into contact with the Persian Empire. After all, Hotan nephrite entered the Central Plains as early as the Shang Dynasty. However, there were only people who knew about ancient Europe and the Aegean Sea. Unexpectedly, the descendants of Tao Zhu Gong in front of him knew it.

"Bai Zi really knows the Aegean Sea. It seems that I didn't show my ancestor's name in vain this time?" Fan Ti smiled and said, "It seems that Silde told you everything, but he deserves your 'mend teacher'..."

"You are the one who bought Silde's mother from the Persians?"

Bai Dong suddenly put down the tea bowl and stared at Chu Ti: "The Fan family once went on a business trip to the Aegean Sea and did business with the Persian Empire and the Greeks?"

Silde's mother was arrested by the Persians. It was because China had a buyer and was sent to China. It was because of the attack by the Qiang people that she was accidentally bought by Xiqimu. If nothing happened that day, I'm afraid Silde would not have changed from the West to Vande?

"It's not so easy to get through this thousand-year trade route..."

Fan Ti smiled bitterly and said, "After leaving Yue Kingdom, he went to the world with Miss Xi Shi. It took me just ten years to spread my business across the world, even reaching Bashu and Lao Qin. But it was after Lao Qin that my ancestor remembered the legend of Shang King entering the Western Regions to pick jade, and began to look for this Western Regions trade route..."

"Well, the Qiang people were not the most powerful force in the Western Regions at that time. The power of the city's Rong was even weaker now. It would not be difficult to cross the Western Regions with the means of Tao Zhugong and reach the easternmost province of the Persian Empire."

Bai Dong nodded slightly. Fan Li was not only unparalleled in business methods, but also a master who assisted King Goujian of Yue to become the overlord of the world. It is not too much to say that he is Zhuge Kongming of this era. Zhang Qian could even touch the corners of the Persian Empire, let alone him?

"This road is not easy to walk. First, avoid Lao Qin's eyes and ears. After entering the Western Regions, he had to walk in the most dangerous area. The Fan family went to do business, but became a fat sheep in the eyes of the Rongs of the Western Regions. The best warriors and hired rangers died one by one... However, the Jiazu successfully crossed the terrifying high ground and entered the beautiful country of his dreams. The Persians were the most fierce warriors, but they were also the smartest merchants. It took Jiazu six months to barely gain their trust, and met a Persian governor in Cyrus and became good friends with him. When leaving Cyrus, the Jiazu taught the Persians to use pigeons to deliver messages, and at the same time he heard the stories of ancient Greece and the Aegean Sea from this Persian good friend..."

"So that's it. If I'm not mistaken, it's just a chance. Because the changes in the Western Regions were too fast, the Persian Empire was the same. Although Mr. Tao Zhu had been involved in the Persian Empire, your Fan family was far from talking about successfully opening up the trade route. The carrier pigeons flew over the Western Regions. There was also a high chance they were captured by raptors."

Bai Dong nodded, Fan Li really only heard that if he really ran to ancient Greece, it would be really against the will of heaven. What else does he have to do with himself?

"The ancestors later organized several caravans to enter the Western Regions, but unfortunately they never succeeded again. They just left the legend of this thousand-year trade route when they passed away. I hope that the descendants of the Fan family can realize his ideals and one day arrive at the legendary Aegean Sea and see the brilliant civilization of ancient Greece with their own eyes. So many years have passed, the Fan family releases hundreds of pigeons every year, and even if only one of them can fly to the Persians, they will not be disconnected. Unexpectedly, I actually received Persia ten years ago.

The letter from a man was the descendant of the Persian governor, but his family was in ruins. Now he is just a general with only a few hundred soldiers. He said that he had captured an ancient Greek aristocratic woman and asked me if I wanted to buy it. The price was very high, but I thought it was worth buying. The descendants of the Fan family tried many times but failed to successfully build a trade route to the West. If they could get a noble woman from Greece, or they could get some information from her, they might be able to fulfill the wishes of their ancestors."

"This Greek noble woman is Silde's mother, right? But you never expected that the Persian warrior who escorted him would be attacked by the Qiang people, and she also became a slave to the Xijia family and even gave birth to Silde with Silde?"

Bai Dong smiled and shook his head. Fan Ti must be very depressed. He tried his best but did not get the opportunity to contact the "Western World". Instead, he let Xiqimu, the lucky guy, have a "in-depth contact" with the Western World, and even the child was born...

Fan Ti smiled bitterly and said, "Bai Zi is laughing at me for failing? My luck is indeed not good enough. However, Silde actually became Bai Zi's student, which is a great thing. According to the information obtained by the Fan family, shortly after you met Silde, the Xijia surrendered the city, and then Qin Jun pardoned the Meng family and exiled them to the Western Regions... With so much information, if I still can't guess what Qin Jun and Bai Zi want to do, I am not worthy of being the head of the Fan family. Bai Zi, the Fan family is very sincere. I just want to fulfill the wishes of the ancestors of the family, not for the benefit of the interests of the Bai Zi, and I also hope that Bai Zi can cooperate with the Fan family. After all, only the Fan family and the Persians are in contact now..."

"So what? If the Western Regions cannot be stable, the trade routes cannot be accessible. The accidental experience of Mr. Tao Zhu can't explain anything. How much can the Fan family know about the Persian Empire? Do you know that the land of the Persian Empire is larger than that of Lao Qin and the six Shandong countries combined? The Persians who kept in touch with your family were just a small officer, and he couldn't help much. To cooperate with me, unless the Fan family has a bigger trump card, I will suffer a lot..."

Bai Dong would not believe that Fan Ti had handed over all the trump cards. To cooperate, you must first show enough sincerity.

"It's true that Bai Zi can't hide it... For this thousand-year business path, the Fan family has been operating in Lao Qin for many years. They originally wanted to cooperate with Wei Yang, but now it seems that Bai Zi is a more suitable candidate. As long as Bai Zi agrees to cooperate with the Fan family, the Fan family spent countless manpower and financial resources over the years and sacrificed countless families' children to exchange for the Rongtu of the Western Regions is Bai Zi. This picture records the strength distribution of hundreds of Qiang tribes, the personality preferences of tribe leaders, and the Chinese people.

Their attitude, their grievances and conflicts... There are also the information about Zhurong in the twenty-three cities. Although some tribes live in water and plants, sometimes there are some changes, there are still certain rules, and these are also recorded in the picture. With this picture and Bai Zi's skills and strength, I believe that the Meng family will be more likely to gain a foothold in the Western Regions. Bai Zi, if you want to 'sow' in the Western Regions, the Fan family will help you 'cultivately'. Is this sincere?"

Bai Dong looked at Fan Ti, nodded slightly and said, "Give me the picture, I'll give you a promise. After this trade route is completely opened, the Fan family caravan can use this trade route to trade, but the profits obtained will be paid to Lao Qin 30%! As for whether you can reach the Aegean Sea, it depends on the strength of the Fan family."

"Fan Ti thanked Bai Zi, but I still have a reluctant request. The Fan family hopes to participate in the construction and development of the Western Regions..." Fan Ti is a smart man. Since Lao Qin has the ambition to control the Western Regions, it would be too stupid to get a piece of the pie at this time.

"This is a shameful thing. The Western Regions are adjacent to Qin. Sooner or later, they will be under the control of Lao Qin. The Fan family is not qualified to get the share of this piece. If Mr. Fan is not satisfied, then let's forget about cooperation. Without your Western Regions Rongtu, Lao Qin will just spend more time and die a few more people. The Western Family members should have died, do you think Lao Qin will feel distressed?"

"Well, everything depends on Bai Zi." Bai Dong was too strong, Fan Ti knew that he had no bargaining chips for negotiation.

Looking at Bai Dong leaving, Yue Ji frowned slightly and said, "Brother, why don't you mention Bai Yue? Speaking of which, Bai Dong is considered half of the Fan family..."

"Bai Dong is not an ordinary person. In less than two years, he will be able to become the number one favorite minister in Qin State and become Ying Quliang's first favorite minister. Is this what ordinary people can do? I still can't see through him. If I mention that matter rashly, if it causes his rebound, it will only miss the big thing. Opening this thousand-year trade route is the greatest wish of my ancestors, and I will not allow any variables."
