Many people are quite interested in the social structure and legends of places other than Zhuxia.

Nabu is also the god in charge of learning and writing. He has many local works and legends, but most of them are about boring conversations between gods and people in mythology. These contents were originally used as warnings to all walks of life in Sumer. The cautionary tale of the King, however, is not very popular in the East.

"Your story is unremarkable, but I want to know where the bull from the sky is. Maybe we can communicate in this regard and introduce high-grade breeding cattle from your land, and then we can vigorously develop animal husbandry. Industry....."

Nabu was very shocked after hearing the suggestions of some leaders. He could only warn them that Gugalana, the bull in the sky, had long been killed by the legendary ancient king Gilgamesh, and that this thing was the Taurus star in the sky. Yes, it can cause droughts. It once caused a great famine in the city of Uruk for seven years. This kind of monster cannot be used as livestock even if it is alive...

But after hearing what Nab said, the leader of the gang burst out laughing.

In this land of mountains and seas, if you just go to a mountain and catch a snake or a strange beast, it might cause a drought. Drought is not a special attribute. For the people on the land of mountains and seas, let alone trigger a drought. After walking around in the mountains and hunting, he came back carrying a lot of monsters that could cause unusual disasters.

"It's not a big problem. In our place, on an island called Liubo Mountain in the Eastern Sea, there is a huge Kui cattle. When this kind of Kui cattle walks in and out, it will cause heavy winds and rains, which will be the same as your kind of drought. If we crossbreed the bulls from heaven, wouldn't it be like water and fire?"

Isn’t this how new varieties are born?

Nabu shook his head. These leaders from the East had no idea of ​​the word "reverence" in their minds. The power of those monsters was no less than that of gods like them...

Perhaps, it is because these people always like to be whimsical that they can create such brilliant civilizational achievements.

After all, in this land, although humans and gods live together, gods and humans must abide by the law. The gods here also have powerful power, but they do not have the majesty of the gods.

"So do you have any plans to join Zhuxia...or Dahan?"

These leaders are even discussing taking advantage of the war in Sumer to incorporate the land into their own territory, but this is unrealistic. The land is too far away, and even if Jisu rules, he will not be able to rule for a few years. .

However, it is still possible to build a city as a stronghold.

When Yu Zai heard the conversation between the leaders, his heart suddenly moved.

In more than ten years, when large-scale railway construction for small trains begins, the first "international long-distance" service may not be possible.

As for that piece of land, it was indeed too far away. There were high mountains and ridges between the land and the sea, and the strong winds from the mountains and plateaus made it difficult to get back and forth from the Dijiang River. After all, Yu Zai himself had never flown over there.

Therefore, it is necessary to give it a try. Developing a route to go out can effectively ensure a certain degree of oppression and tension brought by the outside world, and allow people on this land to realize that there is a wonderful world further west.

All you need to know is that with the current population, no matter which ancient civilization it is, it does not have the ability to migrate long distances, including the current Han Dynasty.

It will take a few more decades to accelerate the development of the times.

As for the land claims in the two river basins, although Yu Zai did not intend to let the Han rule there, it was also a very effective policy to build a stronghold and spread strong civilization and culture to the outside world.

After all, cultural victory is also a way to win!

Just like the ancient Romans were proud to wear silk from the Qin and Han Dynasties, but there was a second-tier dealer between the two parties. This is how the war started. They exported silk to Persia in order to find a stable supply of silk. And Persia is obviously the kind of heartless villain...

However, Mr. Persia thinks that he can raise the price based on his ability. If you can, beat me to death. Even if you beat me to death, I will not lower the price!

Yuzai proposed to Naboo that the two sides could set up embassies for each other. At the same time, in order to expand distant trade routes and lay a solid foundation for stable trade between the two parties in the future, a preparatory policy should be used at this time, and an embassy should be built on the border of Sumer. city-state.

As for the name of the city-state, let’s call it Tianfang!

Although trade can rejuvenate the country, Naboo felt that the distance between the two sides was too far and it was blocked by the majestic Sun Mountains. It was basically impossible to conduct too rich trade. However, Yu Zai revealed the existence of the small train to him in a subtle way and invited him to He can go to Hongzhou and take a look. In a dozen years, the Central Plains will be full of that kind of thing.

"You don't need your oxen and horses to pull goods, you just need to build railroad tracks. I will open an ironworks on your land, hire your refugees, make them settle in our friendly city-state, and then pay them wages. In this way, they will have a stable way of life and production, and once the people are stabilized, productivity can quickly recover."

Old man, the Orientals have come to build your railway.

Although Nabu felt that something was not right, he thought about it again and felt that the eastern land was too far away from his homeland. Even if there were any problems, it would not be a problem. What big things could be done with just one city?

And the highest beliefs of the two sides are not the same. For the people in the eastern land, the royal power is brought by the ancestors and has no eternal existence, while the people in the western land have enveloped the royal power and descended from the sky, even if it is transferred to other people. In his hands, the fundamental source of royal power remains unchanged.

Although now, the existence of royal power and divine power has been destroyed by two consecutive wars in the Dark Ages...

At this time, why not think about the proposal made by the Eastern King of Wisdom just now?

The people of the East hereby promise that they will provide iron-making jobs. As long as they can enter the complete Iron Age and even learn to make steel tools, Sumer is destined to rise and regain the glory of the gods and kings in the past. All the Kadmanzi and Kuti cavemen were driven away from the Mesopotamia.

Free and open study classes are a way to enrich the country and strengthen the army. The advantages obviously outweigh the disadvantages, and it is hard to see what the disadvantages are now.

Of course, the most important point is that even if you oppose it, it is of no use. After all, now that the land is so rotten, do you still have the power to prevent others from settling?

It can be seen that what this King of the East needs and wants now is just an attitude and a name.

"Great King of Wisdom from the East, I completely agree with this proposal!"

Naboo agreed to Yuzai's proposal, and the first international trade route has been established at least verbally. This trade route is very far away, and it is unknown when it will be officially opened in the future. But fortunately, there is an agreement, and there is If we reach an agreement, we will be equivalent to "friends".

Since we are friendly countries, I uphold the principle of benevolence and righteousness, and will not hesitate to hurt my friends, and also hurt each other. In this case, it is normal to help you support one or two kings, right?
