In addition to the Northern Yuan Dynasty, which was established by the nomadic people on the northern prairie, the Great Wei Dynasty divided four vassal states.
Among them, Xiqi has the largest military force, and the Xiqi cavalry is enough to tie with the Beiyuan cavalry! Among the many vassal states, it is the only one that can directly threaten the identity of the Emperor of Wei!
Nanliang, on the other hand, occupies the most fertile land on the entire continent and has gathered a large number of political talents. Over the years, it has become the richest among all the vassal states.
In comparison, Dayan and Great Liang didn't seem so outstanding.
Even the two countries were invaded by the Northern Yuan Dynasty, along the Yayu Mountains and all the way to the Canglan River. The mountains and rivers of the two countries were shattered and turned into pieces!
The country was almost destroyed for a time!
However, east of the Canglan River has always been the territory of the Xiang family.
Beiyan was almost wiped out, and Great Liang was also beaten away.
But the Xiang family refused to give up!
Xiang Canglan, who was not Emperor Taizu Gao at that time, led 8,000 descendants of the Xiang clan to raise an army, and fought in the south and north for decades, and finally drove the Beiyuan cavalry out of the eastern border.
Later, Xiang Canglan openly founded the country in the name of Canglan Overlord without being enfeoffed by the Wei Dynasty, and the country was named Qian!
It has to be said that during the reign of Emperor Taizu Gao, Daqian was definitely at the pinnacle of the pinnacle.
Not to mention Nanliang, I'm afraid even Xiqi's cavalry can touch it!
Later, the remaining members of the royal family of Daliang and Dayan entered the Wei Dynasty, knelt at the feet of the emperor of Wei, and prayed to the emperor to wish them restoration of the country.
After all, Xiang Canglan secretly broke the earth and proclaimed himself king without being enfeoffed, which was really disrespectful to the emperor of Wei.
After what happened, and with Da Liang and Da Yan asking for help, the Emperor of Wei should send troops to attack Da Gan no matter what.
However, the fact is...the Emperor of Wei not only did not send troops to attack, but instead openly reprimanded the two countries of Liang and Yan.
At the same time, an edict was issued to recognize the status of Daqian as a vassal state.
In other words, the fifth vassal state was conquered by the Great Emperor Xiang Canglan with the help of eight thousand Jiangdong children!
At that time, Daqian was at its peak!
It's a pity that future generations can't.
Coupled with the emergence of talented people in Dayan and Great Liang, the offense and defense were once switched, which led to today's situation of the Three Kingdoms in the East.
The people present are all mature people. If we talk about the past, Daqian could indeed compete with Nanliang.
But now, haha, stop making trouble.
If not for the sudden emergence of Emperor Renxuan, Daqian would have been destroyed in the famine more than ten years ago.
But...it's disrespectful to think about it in my heart. If I say it openly, wouldn't it mean that a long-lived person eats arsenic - because he thinks he will live longer?
So Qian Tong thought about it and just snorted coldly and said:
"The Sheriff and the Taicang Ling have already stipulated that in this selection, everything will be based on cloth."
"If my cloth is better than yours, regardless of whether I was a tribute from other countries in the past, I should be elected as the imperial merchant."
"If you are not convinced, just bring out a brocade that is better than Liuyun Satin. Why are you talking here?"
"Brother Qian, don't get angry with him. He is a small cloth merchant. He probably doesn't even have the chance to see me."
"This time I was afraid I would lose everything just to find a ticket."
Qian Tong felt a little better when Mr. Wei on the other side comforted him so much.
But the little cloth merchant got through, because the man surnamed Wei was really right.
He just sold his family property, even his ancestral home, to collect money, hire workers, buy silk thread, and develop a new type of cloth.
The purpose is to make a splash at this selection meeting and make a comeback!
But now... after hearing that Qian's cloth shop had Liuyun Satin, he really wanted to die.
After all, not everyone is Shen Gui and can be so well-informed.
He just found out about Liuyun Satin. If he had known about it a long time ago, he would definitely not have done that thing of selling off the family property!
This time it should be a total loss!
It can be seen that shopping malls are like battlefields, and how fatal information gaps can be!
However, at this moment, the man named Wei wanted to rub salt into his wounds.
How could he endure this? Even when Dang spoke, he didn't care whether it was appropriate or not, and said with a slight sarcasm:
"Does Mr. Qian think that Liuyun Satin is truly invincible?"
"As far as I know, in previous chambers of commerce, Qian's Cloth Shop has repeatedly lost to Shenji Cloth Shop's Water Satin."
"Maybe this time the result will still be no exception."
The young boss thought his ridicule was spot on, but who would have thought that after hearing this, Qian Tong didn't show the slightest anger, but smiled.
"Hahaha, you're the frog in the well!"
"You have never seen Liuyun Satin, so you don't know how exquisite it is."
"I wonder how exquisite the cloud patterns on it are."
"I don't know how many workers, how many machines, and how many tedious steps it takes to produce a qualified piece of Liuyun Satin."
"But I know!"
"To tell you the truth, I have been in the cloth merchant industry for decades, and I have seen more materials than you have eaten."
"But I have never seen such exquisite brocade!"
"Not to mention Shen Ji's Water-like Satin, even the most famous brocades in the entire Daqian territory are equally vulnerable to Liuyun Satin!"
"Such brocade can only be found in heaven. It is rare to hear it in this world."
After Qian Tong finished speaking, he sat down on the ground to drink tea and ignored the young boss.
In fact, he didn't say a word.
Nanliang's textile technology is really much more advanced than ours in Daqian!
well! He was also a Qianren, and he felt honored by the prosperous times created by Emperor Taizu Gao and Emperor Taizong Wen.
But, that's the fact.
We just can’t compare to others!
Stand at attention when you are beaten! You must realize the gap between yourself and others!
Then learn from the barbarians and use their skills to defeat the barbarians!
If you keep talking tough and can't even pass the test in your own heart, how can you surpass others?
Qian Tongyu sighed silently in his heart.
But the young boss was said to be dishonorable, even if he sat down, or even if he didn't sit down, he was really embarrassed.
What exactly is Liuyun Satin?
Although the man surnamed Qian may say that he is not forgiving, he is at least an old man in the cloth merchant industry and has seen countless materials.
Even he admires it so much...
Alas, the young host sighed and sat down helplessly.
boom!
Just in time.
There was a knock on the door, and a slightly bloated figure walked in. It was Shen Gui!
In the past, Shen Gui was a little fat, but he was cute and had a look of wealth on his face.
But now, there is only a haggard look on his face.
Even the waistline, which is the most obvious indicator of weight, has lost weight, and there are a few wisps of gray between the temples.
"Brother Shen, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
No one else had spoken yet, but Qian Tong was the first to stand up and said with a sneer.
