After the college entrance examination, bring a system to serve as a soldier

Chapter 230

"Envoy of the lower kingdom, meet His Royal Highness the prince of the upper kingdom!"

"Ptolemaic Egypt, agree to all the conditions put forward by Great Qin, are willing to pay tribute to Great Qin, and obey the command of General Great Qin!"

Compared with the first meeting, Ptolemy V's attitude was much more respectful, and as soon as he saw Fusu, he directly bowed to the ground and made a big salute.

"That's pretty much it!"

Fusu nodded slightly, and glanced at Perseus and Sula on the side:

"What about Macedonia and Carthage?"

Perseus and Sulla looked at each other, and both secretly scolded Ptolemy V for being unreliable.

This guy is really a super soft bone, he hooked up with the Romans before, and now he didn't even say hello, so he directly agreed to all of Daqin's requests, forcing the two countries to an extremely embarrassing position.

The scene fell silent for a moment.

"Your Royal Highness, Macedonia is willing to become a vassal of Great Qin!"

After a long time, Perseus gritted his teeth.

There is also a secret calculation in his heart, anyway, Daqin's Mediterranean fleet is not so easy to build, and before obtaining the Mediterranean sea power from the Romans, Daqin's control of the Macedonian Kingdom is at most a name.

On the contrary, joining the Great Qin coalition army can force all the pressure to deal with the Romans to the side of Great Qin, and the Macedonian kingdom can take the opportunity to get a respite.

Maybe you can take advantage of this rare window period to defeat all the city-states in the Greek region, no matter how it develops in the future, it is always not a bad thing to have more territory.

Fusu smiled faintly.

Perseus's little abacus, he can guess most of it without asking, it is nothing more than wanting to be superficially obedient, pulling the banner of Great Qin to deter the Romans, and taking the opportunity to obtain a window period for development.

When the construction of the Suez Grand Canal begins, Ptolemy V's expression will be quite exciting.

"Yes, but the kingdom of Macedonia needs an additional 500,000 young and strong laborers. "

Fusu waved his hand.

"No problem!"

Perseus didn't think much about it, judging from the news coming back from China, Daqin is now engaged in large-scale construction in Persian County, and several ports are planned alone.

Perseus wished that Daqin would develop more internal affairs, so that the Macedonian kingdom could have a few more years of respite.

Fusu suddenly set his eyes on the last one, Sulla, the treasurer of the Kingdom of Carthage.

"Your Highness, although the Sufiite Archon is very willing to cooperate with Great Qin, he still needs more time to convince the entire Senate to ask His Highness to give the Kingdom of Carthage a little more time. "

"Carthage is willing to send 50,000 catties of gold and 100,000 slaves to show sincerity!"

Fusu secretly sneered in his heart.

What can't be done with the Senate, it is clear that Carthage is the farthest away from Great Qin, and it is the idea that Great Qin is temporarily out of reach.

Moreover, compared with Macedonia and Ptolemaic Egypt, which were repeatedly defeated, the Kingdom of Carthage, relying on the efforts of Hannibal, a famous general, won more than lost against the Romans at least in the last ten years, and recovered a lot of territory from the Romans.

In this case, the nobles of Carthage could not have yielded like Macedonia and other countries that faced the test of life and death.

The so-called sincerity is just for fear of completely angering Daqin, in case Hannibal can retain the last hope for help after the defeat.

However, this situation is actually a good thing for Daqin.

Both the Romans and the Carthaginians were ambitious and attached great importance to sea power.

Let these two countries fight a little longer, lose a little more of each other, and the situation in the Mediterranean can be more balanced, and Daqin, the fisherman and referee, can also get more benefits from both sides.

And in a few years at most, after the Suez Canal is opened, the powerful Daqin fleet will let these two countries understand what truth and justice are.

"The system of your country is indeed quite special, this prince can give you a little more time to think about it, but the tribute must be doubled, 100,000 catties of gold, 200,000 slaves!"

"And your country must first join the Great Qin Business Alliance to ensure the free trade and absolute safety of Great Qin merchants in your country!"

Fusu pretended to think for a long time before he showed a reluctant expression.

"This is absolutely no problem, please rest assured, Your Highness!"

Sura breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly swore an oath.

Nowadays, Daqin's goods are super tight in Carthage, whether it is silk or tea, it is fashioned by the aristocracy, especially the glaze, which has become a symbol for the nobles to show off their family background.

In this case, how could Sula, the financial officer, be stupid enough to refuse the request to trade with Great Qin.

Anyway, at present, if the Great Qin merchants can reach Carthage, they will definitely become the guests of the nobles, and it is too late to curry favor, how can they fight the idea of the Great Qin merchants?

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became harmonious, and after a polite greeting, Perseus and Sulla took a playful retreat, leaving only Ptolemy V.

Of course, before leaving, Perseus and Sulla secretly glanced at Ptolemy V with angry eyes.

If it weren't for the traitorous behavior of this guy, they wouldn't have been forced into such a situation today, paying so much extra price.

Especially Sula, these 100,000 catties of gold and 200,000 slaves, even if they are as rich as the Kingdom of Carthage, they are going to bleed heavily.

If it weren't for the prospect of trade, Sulla would not have been able to dig up so much money from the greedy aristocrats like Scrooge.

"How's it going, how did you think about it?"

Fusu ignored the thoughts of Perseus and Sulla, who had already left, and looked at Ptolemy V.

"Your Highness, after the opening of this canal, can you give the lower country a little benefit from navigation, otherwise it will be difficult for the lower ministers to explain to the country. "

Ptolemy V said cautiously.

Although his personality is a little cowardly, he is the heir to the throne who has been vigorously cultivated since childhood, and Ptolemy V's vision is still a little.

Once the Grand Canal is opened, the revenue will definitely be an unnatural figure.

And with a portion of the proceeds, he can forcibly suppress the voices of discontent at home.

On the contrary, it is estimated that the domestic situation, which was already unquiet because of Ptolemy IV, is really about to be in chaos.

"Yes, but Da Qin wants to occupy the lion's head!"

Fusu waved his hand.

This time for the Suez Canal project, in addition to the plan and guidance, all the specific construction and costs were paid by Ptolemaic Egypt, and it is reasonable to give some dividends to the profits.

All it takes is to ensure that Daqin has absolute control over the canal.

And after the canal is opened, Daqin can even take the Mediterranean, and a mere Ptolemaic Egypt can escape from the palm of Daqin's hands?

"Thank you, Your Highness, Ptolemaic Egypt, for being willing to be the most loyal vassal of Great Qin!"

Ptolemy V was overjoyed at once, but he did not see the cold light in Fusu's eyes.

What kind of subordinates, where is it good to really integrate into Great Qin?
