The commerce between the Han Dynasty and various countries began with the opening of the Silk Road.

The Silk Road began in the Western Han Dynasty, and it has a history of more than [-] years since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because of this road, merchants from various countries still have a deep understanding of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, the Han Dynasty was the most prosperous and powerful country in the world. Merchants in Eurasia were proud of being able to do business with the Han Dynasty. The experience of the past three hundred years gave the people of the Han Dynasty a strong sense of national pride. , the rest of the countries are really no different from barbarians.

Although it is the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there are still many foreign merchants living in Chang'an, Luoyang and other places. These people generally have a collective name, and the Han Dynasty called them Hu merchants.

Although the countries are willing to go to the Great Han to do business, the Silk Road is too far, more than 7000 kilometers long, and most of them are deserts with harsh climates. Open your eyes, if you are lucky, you may be able to reach Hanyu, if you are not open, these merchants will be buried on the Silk Road.

In later generations, it is said that many precious jewels were buried on the Silk Road. This is actually true. Most of these merchants died on the way, and the goods they carried with them were buried. These things are waiting for future generations to discover them. If it doesn't come out, it will be slowly assimilated by time, and finally disappear with the long river of history.

Compared with the dangers of the Silk Road, sea navigation is equally dangerous, but if you sail along the coast, it is actually relatively safe, and the fleet of Dayong Kingdom has explored the routes. Merchants from various countries only need to pass through these routes, which is safer and more Guaranteed.

When the big ships of the Great Yong Kingdom were sailing on the sea, merchants became interested in the Great Yong Kingdom. They were happy to do business in the Great Yong Kingdom because the Great Yong Kingdom was powerful.

It's a strange psychology, to many people.They will think that the more powerful the country, the better the products. With the precedent of the Han Dynasty and the lesson of the Great Yong Kingdom, businessmen from all over the world easily accepted this concept. The things produced by the Great Yong Kingdom Be good and be ahead.As long as you bring it back, you can get rich.

The city lord of Malacca City is Dong Guo Chengming. He is the group of Confucian students who came to Wanghai City with Mo Fei Mobuyan, Zhang Gui and Zhang Ziyi. Later, Kong Ming and Xu Shu sent them to the Malacca Strait to build Malacca City.

Now that the Malacca city has been built, the construction of the Malacca city marks that the Dayong Kingdom has completely controlled the important waterway of the Strait of Malacca, and at the same time, it is also exploring the surrounding islands.Some aboriginals were killed, some aboriginals were moved to Dayong Kingdom, and a few aboriginals hid in the forest area on the island.

With the increase of the population of Dayong Kingdom, Malacca City is now quite prosperous, with [-] standing Dragon God Army and almost [-] common people, among them.Almost all of these common people also have the identity of shipping merchants, and they are ready to go to sea at any time.

These people can be regarded as the second batch of shipping merchants in the Great Yong Kingdom.Common people who yearn for tranquility generally do not come to this city. After all, it is far away from Wanghai City. Only those who are unwilling to be lonely will come to Malacca City. It is said that the current Malacca city is very aggressive.Of course, this aggressiveness refers to outsiders.

Before the first batch of maritime merchants went to sea, didn’t Lin Bei formulate strict laws. At that time, Lin Bei was very worried that these maritime merchants would kill each other because of the vast sea. This strict law really played a great role.The lives of many sea merchants were saved, and these sea merchants paid more and more attention to this law, and with the establishment of the Great Yong Kingdom, the law was gradually being improved.

Now, if you ask those aborigines who have been plundered by the sea merchants of the Great Yong State to describe their impressions of the sea merchants of the Dayong State, these aboriginal people will definitely say two words: cruelty and unity.

Ferocity is to the natives, solidarity is to themselves.

The Da Yong Hong Chamber of Commerce has also set up an organization to manage shipping merchants. This organization is resident in Wanghai, and there is also a branch in Malacca City. The examination of the qualifications and certificates of maritime merchants is more stringent. Harsh.

But now, the Great Yonghang Chamber of Commerce is going to manage the Hu merchants, and is going to issue the qualifications and certificates of these Hu merchants to do business in the Dayong Kingdom. The reason is that a group of Hu merchants from the poison country came to Malacca City.

Although Shendu Kingdom and Dayong Kingdom are now at war in Lion City, for these merchants, they don't care whether they fight or not. Many merchants are also the group that is least afraid of war.

In the history of China, the era of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period was quite chaotic, but even if it was a hostile country, businessmen were not prohibited from traveling. After the opening of the Silk Road, businessmen from various countries already knew the way of thinking of the Chinese people. Continue as usual, and you can even buy and sell weapons during the war, which will make more money.

This group of Hu merchants came from all over the Shendu country. Counting the servants and guards, there are more than 1000 people in total.

This group of Hu merchants had a leader named Muhammad Boolean.

Boole's ancestors were also Hu merchants. After the opening of the Silk Road, Boole's ancestors once traveled to the Han Dynasty and traveled there three times, bringing back a large number of goods from the Han Dynasty. Many Hu merchants died on the Silk Road. At that time, the experience of three trades made Boolean's ancestor a legendary figure.

But then, the family never went to the Han Dynasty again. The Silk Road was too dangerous. Not only did they have to pass through various countries, but they also had to beware of horse thieves that rose up because of the Silk Road.

Bull's ancestors sold a lot of goods from the Han Dynasty, but some of them were kept at home. These things were regarded as family heirlooms. Bull grew up in this kind of family and admired the culture of the Han Dynasty very much, because according to Bull's ancestors If they stay, the Han people are simply role models, kind, upright, humble and knowledgeable, but there are also bad ones, these Han people are greedy and hypocritical, and most of these people are Han officials.

Bull wanted to go to the Han Dynasty since he was a child, and planned to become a legend like his ancestors. For this reason, he contacted many big businessmen and planned to organize a group to travel to the Han Dynasty through the Silk Road. This idea has not yet been realized, but he was the first to hear about it News from the Great Yong Kingdom.

Just like the people of the Han Dynasty collectively referred to merchants from all over the world as Hu merchants, Bull actually had no concept of the Han Dynasty, only knowing that they were all Han people.

Considering the danger of thinking about the Silk Road, Bull dismissed the idea of ​​going to the Han Dynasty through the Silk Road, but took the sea route.

As soon as he arrived in Malacca, Bull was a little shocked, because the 8 to 2 people in Malacca were a lot to Bull, and in the city where Bull was located, there were only [-] or [-] people within a few hundred miles. Mandalay, the ancient capital of China, has so many people.

In addition, the cleanliness of the city of Malacca also left a deep impression on Bull. Although the city of Malacca has just been repaired, almost all the cities in Dayong Kingdom are now on the same level as Wanghai City. Cleanliness is also a sign of whether a city is good or not. The ability of the ruler, under the supervision of the people of Dayong Kingdom, Dong Guo Chengming did a good job.

The arrival of Bull and others made the people in Malacca City addicted to their eyes. Many people were surprised to see them, because many of them had never seen people from other countries. People in the poison country look like this?It's too dark, what's on the head?Aren't you afraid of the heat?In addition, the clothes are not very good. Afterwards, the people in Malacca city are very contemptuous: they are indeed barbarians.

Bull sensed the malice of the people in Malacca, and felt that these Han people were not as kind, upright, and humble as their ancestors said.

Bull asked Dong Guo Chengming, the lord of Malacca City, and remembered what his ancestors said. Bull took out a precious gift, a box of opals the size of pigeon eggs. According to the words of his ancestors, if he wanted to do something in the Han Dynasty, he would give these officials Sending good things is the fastest and most convenient way.

Seeing the box of opals, which shone brightly after opening, Dong Guo Chengming hesitated, not accepting it, this is the etiquette of foreign people, it seems not very good, accepting it, it seems not too good, so Dong Guo Chengming Ming hesitated for a tenth of a second, and said decisively: "You should take it back."

As long as Dongguo Chengming dares to accept this box of opals, within an hour, the Dragon God Army will definitely come and take him back to Wanghai City. Now the people of Dayong are all monkey spirits, and the daily life of supervisory officials has become I got used to it, and the officials gradually got used to it from the original resistance. Now, they don't feel that being an official is so high and high. For these officials, it is just a job.

Bull was very surprised. Could it be that this is the upright official of the Han people that the ancestors said?It is said that this kind of person is even rarer than the poisonous person who does not use the oil.

"My lord, I want to do business in your place." Bull can speak Chinese, not only Chinese, but also the languages ​​of several countries, including Kucha, Khotan, Loulan and other countries.

"Our Dayong is very welcome to merchants who want to do business in our country, but this matter is not under the jurisdiction of me, the city lord."

Dong Guo Chengming told Bull about the Dayong Kingdom Merchant Association, asked Bull to go to the Chamber of Commerce, and told Bull that they could only accept the protection of the Dragon God Army with the certificate issued by the Chamber of Commerce. Of course, this certificate is required money, and in the future, taxes will have to be collected according to the commercial tax formulated by the Dayong State, provided that these people pass through the waters of the Dayong State.

Originally Boole thought it was very difficult, but when he arrived at the Merchant Chamber of Commerce, he realized that it was actually very simple. The staff of the Chamber of Commerce asked Boole to exchange gems for something called Dragon God Coin, and then issued a Wanlong Shencoin can be used to buy a business certificate. This business certificate is a small flag called the Dragon God Merchant Banner, which can be hung on a boat or a car. It is also possible to enter and leave many places in the Great Yong Kingdom. This Dragon God Merchant Banner has a time limit, and it is only three years for the time being. After three years, you need to spend Dragon God Coins to buy it.

Bull took the merchants out of Malacca City and went to Wanghai City. They were the first batch of Hu merchants who came to Dayong Kingdom. From now on, there will be an endless stream of Hu merchants.

Chapter 406 Summary of Dayong Daily

In the sixth year of the Dragon God Calendar, the national festival of the Great Yong Kingdom, the Dawei Dragon King Festival.

Lin Bei has been asleep for a year and a half.

Wanghai Daily has now been changed to Dayong Daily, which is a newspaper for all the people of Dayong.

This day's Dayong Daily is quite heavy, because it summarizes all the achievements of Dayong Kingdom last year, just like a summary report.

The first thing to talk about is population.

Just a few days before the Dawei Dragon King Festival, in the new year's census, the total population of the Great Yong Kingdom officially exceeded 200 million, and this figure did not include the number of Hu merchants.

Why is the fertility of ancient people low?There are actually many reasons. If you count them, it is nothing more than early marriage, low medical level, and malnutrition.

In ancient times, 12 years old was considered an adult. The original Daweilongwangjiao and the current Dayong Kingdom have no laws to prohibit 12-year-old people from marrying. It means that family education failed, well, this just refers to the past.

Although the Great Yong Kingdom does not prohibit 12-year-old men and women from getting married, don't forget about schools and academies.

The original Nanyue Academy stipulated that six-year-olds enter the month, until the age of 12, and study for six years. This is the first batch of students admitted to the Nanyue Academy. Later, Lin Bei asked the teachers to add some teaching materials one after another. The enrollment time of the students has become increasingly The longer it is, until now, there are many children of fifteen or sixteen in the school.

To be a human being, to learn crafts, to make money, this is what Lin Bei hopes that students can do in the future. Even if they can’t do the three things, at least they can learn the same thing. It can be said that it takes a lifetime for a human being to be able to understand this matter. I don't think it's too much. As for learning crafts, the level of science and technology in Great Yong Kingdom is getting better and better. Just because of the entry of many foreign products, many disciplines have been formed.Many children can't finish their studies in a short period of time. Making money generally comes from new things. In the past, the Zhen family could become the number one grain merchant in the Han Dynasty by buying and selling grain. If it is food, it will definitely be lost.Because Dayong people are not short of food at all.

New knowledge is summed up and then passed on to students. It takes longer and longer for students to learn this knowledge. Many people forget the time when they learn it. Therefore, although there is no rule that 12-year-olds are not allowed to marry, many students also spontaneously postpone it. The time for starting a family and starting a business has been shortened, and now the general age of marriage between men and women in the Great Yong Kingdom has been postponed. It has to be said that this is a very welcome change.

It is also because of the delay in the time when men and women get married.After these men and women get married, the success rate of giving birth to offspring is greatly improved.

As for the level of medical treatment, while Wanghai City opened up the sea area, countless islands were developed, and the resources of these islands were also developed. Medicinal materials are also one of the important resources. Both men and women can learn medicine, which greatly improves the enthusiasm of many doctors. , leading to the medical level of the entire country of Dayong Kingdom far surpassing that of the present.

As for the malnutrition situation, the Great Yong Kingdom is very rich now.Not only can the masses eat enough, but they have also begun to enter the stage of eating well.The nutrition intake is also the best in contemporary times.

Putting it all together, the natural death rate of the population of Dayong Kingdom is the lowest in this era, so naturally, if there are more births, the population will naturally increase.

In this day and age, no leader feels he has too many people under his control.They just don't think there are enough. This is an era that encourages childbearing. If you can have ten children at a time, then congratulations. Maybe you will be awarded the most honorable award for childbearing...
