Chapter 169: Entering HD and Knowing Prosperity
Riding in the carriage, Bai Yuan and the others continued their journey.
It took them more than half a month to arrive at HD, the capital of the Zhao Kingdom, from the Qin-Zhao border.
After a simple check, they entered the city under the strange eyes of the HD soldiers.
After all, this unmanned carriage, these soldiers are still seeing for the first time.
All the way from the border of Qin and Zhao, Bai Yuan and others saw some small cities and towns, and it was not until they entered this HD city that they saw the prosperity of the Zhao Kingdom.
Among the Seven Kingdoms, the Kingdom of Zhao was originally an inconspicuous country, but since King Wuling of Zhao promoted the Hufu Riding Shooting, the Kingdom of Zhao has slowly risen, and now it is the most powerful existence among the Three Jin Dynasties.
Seeing the prosperous appearance of the capital of the Zhao Kingdom, Bai Yuan could not help but sigh at the difference between the Zhao Kingdom and the Qin Kingdom.
The State of Qin has implemented a policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce since the change of the Shang Martingale Law, while the State of Zhao has vigorously promoted the policy of attaching equal importance to agriculture, industry and commerce, allowing the development of private industry and commerce, and allowing the opening of bazaar trade.
The reason is also related to the geographical location of Zhao State.
Originally, when the three families were divided into Jin, Zhao Guo was divided into some mountainous hills, or bitter cold places.
It is precisely because of this that there is not much land available for farming, and there is even less fertile land, so Zhao Guo abandoned the ecological economy based on agriculture and chose both industry and commerce, but embarked on the road of business-based and equal emphasis on agriculture, industry and commerce.
In this context, HD became a metropolis with prosperous agriculture and industry.
There is a record in the "Legend of Spring and Autumn Guliang": Go out to Jin, weave HD, and never speak for life.
The word "weaving" reflects that HD's textile industry has even appeared professional division, which also reflects the development of HD's handicraft industry.
In addition, HD is one of the three major iron smelting centers in the Warring States period, and every year it produces a large number of agricultural tools, hand tools and weapons for all countries around the world.
Its iron smelting technology is already top in the world, and many businessmen have become rich by smelting iron.
Therefore, the high quality of Zhao Guo's iron tools is sought after by people all over the world, and all countries will basically import some iron equipment from Zhao Guo.
And "Chinese Jin Language" also recorded: HD of the warehouse.
It shows that the agricultural level of HD itself is not weak.
When Su Qin was talking about Yanwen Marquis, the grain reserves of the Zhao Kingdom had reached "ten years of Suzhi".
Lü Buwei, the current Xiangguo of the State of Qin, started in HD in his early years, and it was here that he saw the stranger here, and sighed that "this strange product can be lived".
There is an endless stream of businessmen coming and going in HD.
Looking at the bustling scene on the street and the vendors hawking on the roadside, Bai Yuan couldn't help but feel very curious.
"It's really a bustling metropolis, and I've never seen such a scene even in Jimo City."
Jimo Huaxue sighed, looking out through the car window like a curious baby.
"yes! After staying in Taiyi Mountain for so many years, I am also coming to HD for the first time, and I have to say that this prosperous scene is really worthy of being the capital of Zhao Kingdom! "
Although the Qin State was now the strongest among the seven countries, and the other six countries were slightly weaker, Bai Yuan had to admit that he had underestimated the Zhao Kingdom, or underestimated the countries.
Because he knew that the dispute of the Seven Kingdoms before, the world eventually belonged to Qin, and then Qin II died, and the world returned to Han, so he had some bad stereotypes about the six countries of Shandong.
But when he saw the bustling scene of HD, he realized that he was thinking too shallowly.
After all, the State of Zhao is one of the seven heroes of the Warring States, and it is also one of the more powerful countries, with the ability to wrestle with the State of Qin, how can it be worse?
Even if he knows history, it is not the history he knows since he traveled over, and if he still uses it as the basis for judging things, sooner or later he will suffer a big loss.
Bai Yuan also quickly figured this out.
And just when Bai Yuan and the others were looking for a place to stay while enjoying the prosperity of HD, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
"Get out! Get out of my way! Death to those who stand in my way! "
A fierce and vicious man rode a fast horse with a sharp sword in his hand, rampaging through the street unscrupulously, and those who stood in his way avoided this scene one after another, lest they be injured by it.
Behind him, a young man dressed in a power suit and a ranger outfit was chasing him with light skills.
"Little thief! In broad daylight, I actually dare to rob others of money, stop me! "
"Damn it! This nosy guy..."
The big man glanced back, and there was an irritation in his heart, he looked ahead again, and found that there was actually a carriage in front of him that did not mean to avoid at all, and he was immediately furious.
"Get out of the way, don't get in the way of the carriage in front!"
Bai Yuan and the others in the carriage frowned slightly, and the original good mood suddenly disappeared.
"Cher, stop him."
Bai Yuan patted Xue'er's little butt and signaled that it was time for him to get out.
Seeing that Bai Yuan sent himself out again, Xue'er meowed, expressing its dissatisfaction, but still followed the order and jumped out.
Its speed was very fast, and it suddenly rushed to the roof of the carriage, and then made a fierce tiger pounce, exuding an invisible qi all over its body, and its hair was windless and automatic, and it looked so awe-inspiring.
During this time, Bai Yuan made [Yipin Steamed Laurel Fish] several times, and Xue'er also ate a lot, and her soul was greatly improved.
And the improvement of the soul has also improved Xue'er's strength a lot.
Originally, it could only appear some golden aura on its body after transformation, and it could not control that power well, but with the enhancement of soul power, its perception of the surrounding and the control of the body were greatly improved.
Therefore, after deliberately trying, it actually initially mastered the use of qi.
This surprised Bai Yuan and the others.
Xue'er, who has mastered qi, is like a human who has mastered internal strength, and suddenly gets an all-round increase.
Xue'er did not attack directly, but let out a low roar at the horse under the big man's crotch.
Although to humans, it is an ordinary cat bark, but to other animals, it is like hearing a king's command.
Both the two horses pulling the carriage and the horse that the big man was riding stopped immediately.
When the big man saw that his horse was not running, his heart suddenly became anxious.
But without waiting for him to react, the horse under him suddenly did not listen to the call and jumped up violently, and he didn't notice for a while that he was actually thrown down by it.
Fell heavily on the ground, the big man was thrown dizzy, at this time he vaguely saw two horse hooves appear in front of the horse's hooves, and then there was a severe pain in his stomach, he screamed, his eyes were about to pop out, and he fainted.
Cher jumped onto the horse three or two, wagging her tail leisurely, and licking her little paws, as if those things were not what it had just ordered.
At this time, the young man had also caught up.
He saw the big man who was trampled by his own horse, and then looked at the cute little white cat, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
