Journey of the Infinite Wizard

Afterwards, Emperor Zhao Song and the Tang ambassador talked a few words, and hosted a banquet. The Tang ambassador retired, and within a few days, he came to ask for his resignation. Emperor Zhao Song has courtesy and courtesy. After all, this is a'brother' who shares the blood of the Han family and is separated by thousands of miles. After learning the history and geography of the founding of the Tang Dynasty in detail, Emperor Zhao Song treated them. The survivors of the Tang Dynasty are not like anti-thief. I didn't worry at all, and I didn't even think that the Tang people would give up their hundreds of years of family business and return to the Central Plains to fight for hegemony. Because that is impossible. In other words, they will not abandon the inheritance that their ancestors have run for hundreds of years, regardless of abandoning it. However, Emperor Zhao Song was very interested in the country of the Tang Dynasty, so he sent a delegation of the same size to visit the country of the Tang Dynasty.

After the Tang Dynasty envoys bid farewell to Emperor Zhao Song, they took the Mission of Zhao Song all the way back to the original landing place of "Suzhou". Then, they went out to sea by boat and embarked on their way back to the country. After sailing for a year, the Chinese fleet returned to the Red Sea. Afterwards, they contacted the wizards of their own country and worked together to cross the Red Sea and return to the Mediterranean. As soon as he stepped into the calm Mediterranean Sea, away from the turbulent ocean outside the territory, the homesickness of the Tang Dynasty delegation suddenly spewed out. Afterwards, after sailing for a few days, a rolling ‘green line’ finally appeared in front of them. The Tang people knew that it was their country and land, and they finally went home.

"Master Lu, the land in front of me is the country of my Tang Dynasty." Tang Shixiang explained to Lu Duan who was standing next to him. He was the delegation representing Zhao Song this time. It is not only to investigate the country of the remnants of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but also to compare the national strength of the Tang Dynasty. 【】Because Emperor Zhao Song heard too much of Tang's exhortation, he always had some disapproval in his heart, so he wanted to test the school. In addition, he wanted to see if the Tang Dynasty was like the Tang Dynasty said. , Almost like the stars in the sky.

After hearing this, Lu Duan set up a pergola, looked far, and looked at the undulating green line ahead, knowing that they would soon arrive in the country of Tang Dynasty. Then he remained silent, and only nodded slightly to Tang Shi's explanation, because he didn't understand, he didn't say anything. All things will be demonstrated after seeing is believable. For specific matters, we still need to witness that the monarch of Tang Dynasty is going to care about it in the future.

Seeing that Lu Duan didn't speak, the envoy didn't say much, and stood quietly with him at the bow of the ship, looking at the distant mainland line.

It didn't take long for the huge fleet to slowly approach the port, and Lu Duan could clearly see the whole view of the port. Leaving aside other things, just talk about the scale and prosperity of the port, and it will not lose to them. The berths of the wharf are full of ships of various sizes, and one after another is constantly loading and unloading goods. He was able to hear the bustling noises before he even approached the port. This made Lu Duan nod secretly. Regardless of other things, just this prosperous scene, you can know that this small country based on trade, even if it is not as wealthy as them, I am afraid that it should not be underestimated in this foreign land.

As the huge fleet approached, the tax officials at the port naturally recognized the royal flag hung above the flagship, so the tax officials rushed to the port police department to sort out the berths. At the same time, the ships entering and leaving the port shall be organized in a unified and standardized manner. In short, we must not delay the entry of royal ships into port.

Under the arrangements of the Police Department and the Port Tax Department, businessmen from various countries and their own countries are not surprised. Those who were about to leave the port stopped moving, and those who wanted to enter the port also avoided the direction of the royal fleet. As the huge fleet gradually entered the port, the port gradually began to return to normal.

The envoy to the Song Dynasty returned again, and not only brought a wealth of national gifts and various commodities when he visited Zhao Song. When I returned to China, I also brought a full cargo of cargo, including gifts returned by the Zhao Song court and goods purchased in the Central Plains nearby. And silk has always been the bulk of the East-West trade, an absolute profiteering commodity.

When ships of fine silks were transported down, merchants from various countries, including those of their own countries, had their eyes red. Obviously, they know this product and know its value better. It is no exaggeration to purchase silk from China and ship it to Europe, with the price multiplying one hundred times. Who makes this kind of commodity, only China can make it? China holds the golden weapon of silk, and has been making huge profits in the trade between the East and the West.

Merchants from all over the world have also switched from selling silk, earning sky-high profits.

Therefore, when the silk was shipped down, all the merchants were jealous. All of them are scrambling to buy silk, but the officers and officers of the Port Police Department, the scabbards and murderous expressions on their faces have stopped merchants from all over the world. However, there are still countless businessmen with their eyes widened, panting and looking at the delicate silks, the desire in their eyes is as real.

Seeing this, Lu Duan was full of contempt and pride in his heart. "The generation of Yi Di is vulgar and ignorant of etiquette." However, he was interested in the horizontal knife in the hands of the officials of the Tang Dynasty and he hesitantly asked, "This is, Sheng The horizontal sword that was one of the four systems in the Tang Dynasty?" Lu Duan asked uncertainly, because in the Central Plains, the steel smelting method in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty had long been lost. And the subsequent dynasty can no longer reproduce the knives of the heyday of Tang Dynasty. Even in the Ming Dynasty, I had to learn from Japan. I have to say that this is a pity.

"Yes, it is Hengdao!" Although the tax officer didn't know Lu Duan, he still didn't dare to speak lightly when he came here with the boat. Moreover, Lu Duan's voice, appearance, and appearance are very similar to those of his native land, and his clothes and appearance are similar to them, which makes him feel good about it. "There are not only horizontal knives, but also Mo knives, Yi knives, and barrier knives."

"Why, do you still retain the Sheng Tang weapon smelting method?" Lu Duan's eyes widened. It is really the weapon of the Sheng Tang Dynasty. They can only learn from the books. How to smelt is no longer known. Because, in the future wars of five generations and ten countries, many technologies have been lost. For example, the assembly line of the Qin Dynasty had long been lost in the Han Dynasty.

Tang Shi explained to him, "We have lost a lot of the smelting method in the prime of the Tang Dynasty. However, we made up again. Compared with the smelting method in the past, it is still worse."

"I never thought ~www.NovelMTL.com~ such a skill, there will be another day of goodbye." Lv Duan was quite emotional about this. Subsequently, the news of the visit of the envoy of Zhao Song was brought to the capital to inform. As for the Zhao Song mission who came here after a long journey, each of them was exhausted. Later, accompanied by officials, a place of rest was arranged for them to rest. During the day, government officials led them to visit the entire city and the rural scenery in the suburbs.

Lu Duan looked at this place one by one, and saw the survivors of the Tang Dynasty here. Although the language is very different from that of the Central Plains, they can still understand them after getting acquainted with each other. It's like the dialect of a certain place in Central Plains, but their writing has been improved. Although it is not a Chinese character, it is quite beautiful in writing. However, Lu Duan is still a little dissatisfied with these survivors of the prosperous Tang Dynasty who changed the characters without authorization. Isn't this forgetting the ancestors? However, Nianzai has been away from a foreign land for hundreds of years, and the changes in the language and writing are also a matter of fate. Afterwards, Lu Duan visited the city during the day and wrote "A Guide to Traveling the Tang Dynasty" in the room at night, "...the people of the prosperous Tang, hundreds of years of wind and frost, far away from the homeland of the Central Plains, although still maintaining my Chinese clothes, but the language and writing are contrary to my China. , Very different...but the survivors here are gorgeous and beautiful, everyone is extraordinary, quite the legacy of the prosperous Tang...The warehouses everywhere are overflowing, and they like to breed livestock and wine...the martial arts style is especially strong, almost like the Qin Dynasty... Nian Nai Being in a foreign land, it is especially understandable... the country of the remnants of the survivors is like the reappearance of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.".
