Chapter 1356: Station (3)

Muhetar received Huizhen’s telegram and finally believed that this beeping machine could really send messages across thousands of miles.

Even after training, he still couldn't help but his face changed slightly. How terrifying is this?

 This means that when they knew nothing about China, they had already seen them clearly through this thing. The information that they needed a month, two months, or even longer to convey, they could know instantly.

Muhetar could no longer sit still and immediately returned to the royal city to report.

Wu Liang watched him leave. There were many people checking out and leaving with Muhetar. Let's go, be afraid, admire, and accept our embrace.

Our Majesty has a broad mind. He just wants to make the wanderers away from home safe and smooth, and also wants the people in foreign lands to experience the beauty of China.

 When building a post station, it is necessary to ensure smooth road traffic, so the first priority is to ensure road safety.

 Let the traveling merchants not be robbed and murdered by bandits at will, so that merchants can trade with confidence and boldly, and travelers can have the courage to go out.

Through years of anti-bandit work, all larger bandits in the Central Plains have disappeared, and no bandit gang has more than 20 members.

It is unbearable for a few lawless elements to get together to rob and plunder.

After the large bandit dens were wiped out, the local government strengthened public security, and the court's various policies to benefit the people. Except for a few really vicious people who like to get something for nothing, businessmen all like to travel in groups, and they have the ability to fight against these small bandits. .

For a time, China's trade was developed and the north and south were connected. A large number of merchants went north or south. The nobles who fled to the south to escape the war more than ten years ago also no longer wanted to return to their hometown because of the strengthening of exchanges between the north and the south, but began to slowly accept it. Southern customs have survived in the south.

 The new technologies and knowledge they brought allowed the rapid development of agriculture, handicrafts and commerce in the south.

The oldest of the new generation who migrated to the south is nearly fifteen years old, and those who were born in the year when China was founded are also eight years old. They have lived in the south since they were young and received education from the north of their families. Later, they went to school and received education. It is the new education of the imperial court.

 They are a new generation of people, just like those who graduated from school like Wu Liang, there is a slight gap in their thinking from their predecessors.

 Nowadays, the most serious place where bandits are is the Silk Road.

 This is the main purpose of their station's existence, to ensure the safety of Chinese business travelers.

Wu Liang's reaction all fell into Yuan Li's eyes. He read Wu Liang's resume again and again, and finally said to his subordinates: "Recruit this person."

 The subordinates took the order and went to the Western Regions in person.

Although the Ministry of Supervision has the same level as the Six Ministries, because it is directly under His Majesty and has special functions, it can recruit officials better than the Six Ministries.

There are two types of officials in the Ministry of Prosecutions: light and dark. Those like Yuan Li who can stand in the sun and reveal their identities openly and openly are called Ming. There is another type who need to hide in the dark and have other duties. They may change from dark to bright in the future. , it is also possible that they will be hidden in secret all their lives until they grow old or die. In the future, their files will be released, and only the world can see their achievements.

Yuan Li thought that Wu Liang was very talented as a secret agent, but just being a messenger would be a waste of his talent.

Wu Liang is an ambitious person, and being able to serve as a secret inspector in the Ministry of Supervision shows that he has more avenues for promotion, so he is naturally willing to do so.

He immediately agreed to join the job. From then on, his information will be divided into two parts, one part will be sent to his immediate superior, the West Road Army, and the other part will be sent to the Luoyang Police Department.

Due to the opening of the post station, all the Xiqiang people returned to the imperial court, and with the **** of the Western Route Army and Xiliang, more and more business travelers traveled to and from the Silk Road.

With the sound of camel bells, a large amount of precious stones, spices, copper coins and silver coins from the Western Regions flowed to the Central Plains. Silk, silk cotton, colored glaze, porcelain, etc. from the Central Plains also flowed to the Western Regions in large quantities. The royal families of various countries who had always been wary of China discovered that Zhao Hanzhang really only protected business travelers and did not send troops to harass the bandits after they stopped.

 The royal families of various countries were the first to enjoy China's exquisite silks and porcelain. Due to the active trade, their people's income also increased, and their taxes also increased.

 Finally, they were willing to open their hearts a little and look at Zhao Hanzhang's open arms.

As the first stop for communication, the Yi Station was the first to report this change, so Zhao Hanzhang once again officially sent an envoy, with Zhao Xin as the chief envoy and Zhang Shi as the deputy envoy, to the countries in the Western Regions.

This time, the mission went smoothly. They visited various countries and were treated as honored guests. In just two months, they visited twelve countries.

Have a safe journey, and I can use the radio to report safety to Luoyang every day.

The radio station that was robbed during the last mission to the Western Regions was also sent back.

The countries in the Western Regions already know that this thing can send messages thousands of miles, but they don't know how to use it. In order to compete for this thing, they fought several times privately and accidentally destroyed a small country.

 Finally, several countries sat together and asked craftsmen to dismantle the things and wanted to study them. In the end, they found that the things that had been dismantled had not been studied clearly and could not be put back together.

The radio station was reduced to a pile of scrap metal. When the envoy came this time, the country that had captured Zhao Xin and Zhang Shi as slaves for half a year returned the things as a show of goodwill.

Xin Zhao held the thing in his arms as if he couldn't see that it had become scrap metal, and thanked the king with emotion for returning it.

The king was a little embarrassed and said quickly: "It's just that the people below didn't store it properly and the things were broken."

Xin Zhao said that it didn’t matter. The main thing was that the king had this intention.

When the king heard this, he immediately expressed that he was very interested in this thing that could send messages thousands of miles, and he didn't know how it sent messages.

Zhao Xin lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and smiled: "This is made by our Majesty's royal husband. It uses heaven and earth to transmit messages. It belongs to Tianyin. I am stupid and don't know the reason. But there are professors in Taixue. King If you want to know the details, why not send smart and wise people to the Imperial Academy to learn the truth?"

The king's eyes lit up when he heard this. He couldn't help but sit up straight and asked eagerly: "Can foreigners like us also learn?"

Xin Zhao smiled and said: "Your Majesty has a broad mind and regards the people of the world as his own children. The king sincerely asks for help, and our Majesty has nothing to refuse."

 The king's heart was moved, and so were the hearts of all the countries visited by Xin Zhao.

So before Zhao Xin has visited all the countries in the Western Regions, some countries have already submitted credentials to China and want to send students to Luoyang to study.

 Zhao Hanzhang readily agreed.

The king did not know that Zhao Xin brought several radio stations with him. When he arrived in Kucha, he gave one to the King of Kucha to thank him for agreeing to build the Huaguo Station in Kucha.

 This is a national gift. Among the ten countries on the Silk Road, only five countries can receive this gift. (End of chapter)
