"Here." Zhang Erye watched Chen Yu leave.
"The current situation in Wei country can only be like this." Zhang Er said.
The situation of the Wei State is indeed very bad, the main reason is the financial situation. The current situation of the Northern Wei Dynasty is not enough to support a huge army, so the Northern Wei Dynasty put its national defense on the militia.
Xianyang, Qin State.
"The prime minister's idea is indeed correct." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.
"What?" Molly asked.
"Shang Wen said before that he wanted to establish a customs union or alliance. Now, the problem of Yan has become prominent. There are also Qi, Chu, and Southern Wei. The tariffs of these countries are relatively high, and it is a shame to open the market. .” Meng Yi said.
"Qi Guo agreed to open up some tariffs. The range is relatively large, but it is still relatively high for us." Meng Yi said helplessly.
"If we can establish a unified customs union, then many commodities can be sold." Meng Yi said.
"Well. Those countries that don't want to join must have a lot of ulterior secrets." Mo Li said.
"No matter what? Our country of Qin is working hard towards this." Meng Yi said.
"Shangwen has already started to conceive in this regard. However, this guy is still in the campaign, and the Western Regions are still in such chaos. I really don't know when he will come back." Meng Yiye said.
"I read in the newspaper that people from the Western Regions are very vicious towards us, even filial piety. Is it true?" Mo Li asked.
"It's true." Meng Yi nodded and said.
"One order was seriously attacked, and some peasants were destroyed, and the whole family was killed." Meng Yi said.
"It's cruel." Mo Liye said.
"Why can't your Qin army protect them?" Mo Li asked.
"The Western Region is huge." Meng Yi said.
"It will take a day and a night to ride a horse for some sequence and another sequence," Meng Yi said.
"The Qin army deployed 3 people there, like throwing a handful of salt into the sea." Meng Yi continued.
"The Western Regions are so big?" Mo Li sighed.
"Yes, it's that big." Meng Yi nodded.
"So, Shangwen is there, and I really don't know if it's safe or not." Meng Yi said worriedly.If this guy can stay at ease, maybe there will be no problem. I'm afraid he will do something out of the ordinary. " Meng Yi said.
"What kind of outrageous thing?" Mo Li asked.
"There are too many curious things in the Western Regions." Meng Yi said.
"I heard that this guy found some cotton in the Western Regions, and other treasures. In short, there are many such things. No one knows what this guy will think of suddenly. No one, his brain will never be entered by others. Go in your head." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.
"Now the horse bandits know the Qin army very well. If they know the importance of Shangwen and use their swords, what will happen?" Meng Yi said.
"I think the Qin army's military operation will stop this time." Meng Yi said.
"Although I have reminded him. Who knows, will he listen." Meng Yi emphasized repeatedly.
"Yes. I want to go to the Western Regions to see the situation in the Western Regions. Find out more about it." Mo Li said to Meng Yi.
"Also, I think I can prevent him from doing too many risky things." Mo Li said to Meng Yi.
"That's great. I'm relieved to have someone watching him." Meng Yi said to Mo Li.
"Great. When are you leaving?" Meng Yi then asked.
"The sooner the better." Mo Li said.
"Well. Tomorrow, I'll find someone to arrange for you to go to the Western Regions tomorrow morning." Meng Yi said.

Indochina Peninsula, at the mouth of the Mekong River.
"The weather here is really nice. I didn't expect the rice to mature so quickly. It's only March." An old farmer said excitedly.
"That's right, old man, this is a technique improved by people from the state of Qin. Transplanting rice seedlings is not sowing seeds. In this way, the rice will grow fast. Look, how good the rice is." A middle-aged man next to him rubbed the rice excitedly. Said the rice in the hand.
"Well. Good. Good." The old farmer said excitedly.
"With this rice, we won't be afraid of being hungry. We don't need to eat those wild fruits anymore." The middle-aged man said excitedly.
"Well. Let's have a good meal of rice today." The old man said with a smile.
"Okay. Let's eat rice today." The middle-aged man said that Guan Qin people already know how to eat rice by boiling it, but the method of Chu State is not boiled, but steamed. The rice is steamed. , rather than cooked, which is also the difference between the diet of Chu and Qin. People in Qin like to eat noodles, while people in Chu like to use rice to make various foods.Among them, there are more sweets.Most of the Qin State is salty.This may be a regional difference.
"Old man." The middle-aged man said at this moment.
"What's the matter?" the old man asked.
"We will open another [-] acres of land this year. Shall we plant some of the land with something like sugarcane?" the middle-aged man suggested.
"Oh. Why?" asked the old man.
"Look, we only have more than 300 people. The rice produced at once is enough for us to eat for a year. If we continue to produce like this, I'm afraid there will be a large amount of rice produced this year." The middle-aged man said. arrive.
"What? Isn't it bad that there is too much rice?" The old man looked at the middle-aged man with strange eyes and asked.
"No, no, that's not what I meant." The middle-aged man said.
"Why would I dislike growing too much food?" said the middle-aged man.
"What I mean is that no matter how much food we have, that is, food, other things we need still need to be exchanged from other places. For example, salt, ironware, weapons, and various daily necessities, Dishes, some of these things we can make by ourselves, but some things we don’t have, such as ironware, we need such ironware to grow crops, and there are also some muskets and ammunition, to guard against those natives Humans, as well as the attacks of ferocious beasts. But we need to exchange a lot of rice for these things, and sometimes, the rice may not even be replaced.” The middle-aged man said.
The old man wiped his beard and nodded.He felt that what the middle-aged man said was very reasonable. They had spent a lot of money to get this land. There were ferocious beasts here in the beginning.They expelled, and the natives harassed, they built forts, protected them, and then lived.But in this way, a lot of ironware and various daily necessities were consumed, but it was very difficult to replenish these things, because there were no merchant ships docking, and they had to transport them out by themselves and return what they needed.
"What do you mean?" asked the old man.
"I heard that sugar is needed in the north, and this sugar can be squeezed from sugar cane. When we have sugar, merchants are willing to come and pay a high price. There is plenty of rain and the sun is scorching here. There must be no problem in planting sugar cane. Yes, if we plant a piece of sugar cane, with sugar, we will have our own income as soon as the merchant lands." The middle-aged man said.
"Well. Your method is good." The old man said.
"I heard that the price of this sugar is very high. We need to spend a hundred stones of rice to exchange a pound of sugar. Is this true?" the old man asked at this time.
"It's true. I heard that this kind of thing is being grown in both Wuyue and Yue. Apart from silk, that's what it is." The middle-aged man said.
"In this case, this sugar is a good thing. We can plant [-] acres of sugar cane specially. Anyway, let's plant this thing." The old man said.
"As long as this thing can be sold at a good price, you will be rich. To marry those apricots with wives will fulfill your and my great wish." The old man said with a smile.
