Chapter 789 The real reason
Yes, Azam Tulansha Sultan wanted to build a road to Baghdad. This was the great benefit to his capital Damascus after the road from Damascus to Ashtrite was repaired.
Iron materials and various other resources were transported from there to Ashtrite (now Beirut). Cars of goods were transported from there to Damascus. Because it was the "road" he built, although each car only charged a little toll, it was enough to quickly expand his wealth.
But there is no doubt that the goods there will be shipped from Socotra by sea to the Port of Suez, which already belongs to Zhao Fubo. From there, they will pass through Cairo to Mietta City, then take a sea boat to Ashtrite, and finally transport it through the road to Damascus.
Obviously, because the journey is far away and the amount of goods is insufficient, and because of the transportation costs, the money that can be earned is much less. After marrying Princess Afaf, Azam Tulansha Sultan had this idea. He only needed to establish a "road" from Huangsha City to Baghdad, and then control the princes in various places. Each family gave himself some, which made much more money than transporting goods by himself.
In addition, the route from Damascus to Baghdad is also being built. Although it is a little farther, it will be of absolute benefit to him to transport goods from there to Constantinople and other Byzantine areas in the future.
The above is why Azam Tulansha traveled in a hurry after his newlyweds. For these benefits, nothing could stop him. But what he had never expected was that this time his trip brought him a war.
"What, do you want to build a road to Huangsha City? This matter...you know, the road is not very peaceful!"
When Bahayi heard this, he immediately panicked. Because it was agreed with Zhao Xu that the operation to destroy Zhao Fubo's trade route was underway. Although it did not cause any real losses, he had arranged for some to act as robbers to do this.
But what made him uncomfortable was that there was no effect. Even the "robbers" were suppressed by some people. According to the living people, the gunpowder weapons thrown by stone throwers. Poor Bahayi didn't know that they were all Zhao Xu's subordinates. He also secretly held a grudge that Count Artuva did not kill Zhao Fubo on the Cairo battlefield.
It’s a pity that he was deep inland and indulged in wine and sex, but he didn’t know that the “Emperor Aladdin” who became famous at this moment was Zhao Fubo.
"Is that true? There will be robbers in your jurisdiction, which is really unexpected. Let's go and see tomorrow. Governor Bahayi, I want to ask you to understand that the 'road' is to be repaired no matter what. As for robbers, if you do not have the power to wipe out, then I will ask my father-in-law to send some new troops to help you complete the mission that should have been completed by you!"
This sentence made Bahayi sweat off his head, which is not a good sign. If he wanted to change himself, he would probably lose the entire Bersha Sudan in front of him.
Because for those who love money, having money is not important, and not making money is important. After the nervous Bahayi's heart was twisted for a few times, he immediately decided to terminate his cooperation with Zhao Xu.
"Great Your Majesty, I have already found out some news. Because there was a man from Huangsha City today. I will say that the horses he gave to you were given to me by him. I heard from him that he knew some news about robbers. If you want, I think he could come to see you!"
Looking at Bahayi's appearance of wanting to stay out of the matter, Azam Tulansha Sultan knew that if he was counting on this guy to fight, he would definitely not have hope. But just when he was still hesitating whether he should fight a war here or whether it was worth it, his wife spoke.
"Your Majesty, I think these robbers should not be between us and Huangsha City anyway. You know, from the Father, this matter is very important. Why not do this? Let's first prepare the route from Bershalo to Baghdad, if you know that... Maybe by then, the robbers will never be a big problem!"
Knowing that the speed of transportation of the "road" compared to the camel caravan at this time can be described as incredible. This is also the reason why Azam Tulansha Sultan always wanted to go to Huangsha City to see it. After all, only when you get there can you know what Zhao Fubo's true strength looks like.
Although Azam Tulansha Sultan did not dare to resist Zhao Fubo, if he could meet his real queen, Shu Yuer, whom Zhao Fubo mentioned, then perhaps the "Queen Route" would be successful.
"Well, my dear brother, you are no longer right. I don't think so, so we will meet the person who came to report the news, and then we will decide what to do. But I must first confirm one thing, Governor Bahayi, you need to recruit all slaves and idle free people as soon as possible, and start building the "road" from here to Baghdad. This matter was personally ordered by His Majesty Mustashin, and mistakes are absolutely not allowed.
As for the materials, they will be shipped in Baghdad. As for me, I will send a few of my people to guide your people to do this. Because the initial excavation work is quite large, you can start as soon as possible!
In addition, if possible, I want to go to Huangsha City. Of course, this must be protected under sufficient protection. Governor Bahayi, I think you understand what I mean.
As for that person, tomorrow, we will meet him after riding a horse tomorrow. I want to hear what he will say."
"Of course, as you wish, I will ask him to come outside the palace tomorrow morning to wait for your reception. As for going to Huangsha City, I think if I have seen him before I can talk about it?"
Azam Tulansha Sultan took advantage of the time when Bahayi poured wine for the three of them to see his wife who had changed into men's clothes and was still beautiful. From her eyes, it can be seen that she was very satisfied with what she had agreed tonight.
For Azam Tulansha Sultan, he would be satisfied as long as his wife is satisfied. Because his wife is the second person he trusts most in this world. As for the first one, naturally, the "Aladdin Emperor" who made him get it all, he didn't know that his wife wanted to go to Huangsha City, which really had a deep relationship with the "Aladdin Emperor".
