Chapter 118 Simple things
People often say that the level of development can be seen from the road system. I believe this sentence always makes sense. {///Uploaded by book friends} In the Roman Empire, the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the strong Han Dynasty and other top powers of the era, the road system must be quite developed.
But here, on this land named Ceylon Pearl Province, it is easy to see what the emperors here are busy doing all day long.
"This is also considered an official position?"
Zhao Fubo and Shu Yuer rode on horses on the so-called official roads in Ceylon Pearl Province. Not only are there dirt roads, but also the weeds grow tall on the roads, not to mention the horse hooves and cement avenues of the "Huaxia Empire", even if they are inferior to the official roads of the Song Dynasty.
"Yes, it seems that this is the official road. You don't know. After seeing this road, I no longer imagine what their capital would look like."
Zhao Fubo just curled his lips. At this moment, he could not understand the so-called emperors, kingdoms, sultans, and governors. Is their luxurious life really that important? In fact, Zhao Fubo knew that the quality of life of the Arab Empire and some so-called kings in Europe were even inferior to that of ordinary citizens of the "Huaxia Empire". Under the turmoil of 100 industrial profits, the living standards of the "Huaxia Empire" at this moment are no exaggeration to say that it is the highest level in this world.
Maybe everyone feels a little exaggerated, so just give an example if you don’t smile. Compared to the people at that time, Qin Shihuang was definitely living in the highest position. So there is a problem. Has he really been through it? Has he played online games? Or has he been sitting in the toilet?
This is the difference in quality levels of living standards, but at this moment, the development on "Huaxia Island" is at least the children in school, two cups of milk a day and one egg {/// Uploaded by book friends} Three nutritional meals with juice and enough calories and balanced nutrition
And this is not to say that if the "Huaxia Empire" takes care of their citizens, but the improvement of huge profits to their living standards under the development of science and technology. If Zhao Fubo's own living standards are mentioned, then the emperors of other countries should not compare, because there is no problem of comparing between primitive people and modern people.
Finally, the capital of the Sinhalese country was revealed in front of Zhao Fubo and Shu Yuer. They had basically never encountered resistance along the way. Many times, the opponent's army would scatter under the shells of the "Hell Messenger II-type field cannon", and all the problems were solved with just one shot. Even because the army was moving too fast, Zhao Fubo had not even seen the opponent's soldiers before. Often after hearing the explosion, when he arrived, there was already a single person there.
"Is this their capital?"
It is impossible not to say that the capital of the Sinhalese people is a city full of flavor. Although the walls cannot be compared with the walls of the Song Dynasty and cannot be compared with the castles in Europe, their taste is still somewhat artistic. Looking down from the hillside, the exquisite temple shows that people here still have good artistic cells.
Moreover, Zhao Fubo did not fire a single shot during his entry into the city. When he led his army to surround the other's capital, the Sinhalese had already opened the city and they surrendered.
Such a battle is actually not worthy of description. After all, the technological level of the "Huaxia Empire" at this moment is far better than that of the developed Arab Empire at this time, and farther than European countries such as Ceylon Pearl Province. In Zhao Fubo's eyes, countries that were almost like natives are not worthy of being the opponent of the Chinese army.
Originally, Zhao Fubo thought that the battle on the Pearl Provincial Island of Ceylon would be dispersed due to the resistance of the other party. However, he did not expect that the other party would surrender after a hasty resistance. This reminded him of what Teacher Martin said, in the era of great navigation, the 200 Spaniards who used a medley gun conquered the entire Inca Empire.
"Yu'er, do you think we have made some big fuss about taking over here, the Yulin Army and the Marine Corps?"
Of course Shu Yuer understood Zhao Fubo’s thoughts, but then she solved his doubts for Zhao Fubo with just one sentence.
"Is that right? I don't think so. This is just a matter of being the only way for us to go back to our hometown in China. And I think it's a good thing for the army to adapt to this ability to fight from the forest at the same time."
"Okay, let's talk to their king. If he is willing to let go of his aristocratic status, maybe I can let him invest in the enterprise as a shareholder and live a better life to see their city. It's really..."
The city lacks a good sewage system, the smell is not satisfactory. Zhao Fubo has completely lost interest in visiting. He just wanted to talk quickly and solve the problem and go to the beach to build the city.
The king of the Sinhalese people was a thin and short old man. When he saw Zhao Fubo riding the flying fire and burning sky beast coming closer, his eyes showed a horror. Zhao Fubo was simply a giant for him who was less than 1.6.
This gave Shu Yuer a mistake, that is, Zhao Fubo in front of her was like an adult bullying a child, she jumped off her rouge, lifted her armor and brought out a beautiful face, as if a fairy had come to the barbaric city, the old man's fear immediately eased. His body, which was originally slightly tilted back, also got up right now, and even remembered the gift he had forgotten because of fear.
"Oh, don't worry too much"
The crisp voice and kind tone made the king of the Sinhalese kingdom in front of him relieved him. He was just afraid of Zhao Fubo beside Shu Yuer. He didn't know how this "big thing" would deal with him. Seeing his majestic physique, if he remembered, he could kill his life with just one punch.
Zhao Fubo, who originally planned to fight a bloody battle in the fierce resistance, felt a little embarrassed under such circumstances, believing that if he went to talk, he would be afraid that the old man would be inappropriate. Therefore, the negotiations with the Sinhalese were thrown to Shu Yuer, who gained the other party's favor.
The matters in the Pearl Province of Ceylon were solved very quickly. Relatively speaking, the Tamils still had some resistance, while the Sinhalese did not resist decently. Of course, their resistance was just an adult fighting against children for the Chinese army, and it was not worth mentioning.
Faced with extreme force, Shu Yuer's negotiations went smoothly a few days later, and the Pearl of Ceylon Province was simply obtained.
