The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 4276: Southwest monsoon

Carthage, the Zhao Kingdom lease area, the development here is still not very good. The Zhao Kingdom lease area is only close to the coast and the dock. The houses look better. On the side close to the city of Carthage, they are all slums. , Those slaves who can't afford a house, run away, they have reasons for not leaving, they live there, they have formed a community of their own, they feel very satisfied with their lives, most of them live here .

Inside a Zhao Guo tavern on the coast.

For Mara, Zhao’s cuisine is unpalatable. It seems that Zhao’s people don’t like cooking, and their pasta is good. But when it comes to other dishes, they are a bit unpalatable. Their dishes look very affordable and large in quantity, but they are not exquisite at all. This is the situation of a bunch of Zhao food that Mara is facing. He has already fallen in love with Korea and the deliciousness of Chu. He still finds it difficult to accept such a dish for him to eat.

"Come on, taste our Zhao Guoren wine, which is much better than Korean wine." Zhao Ji drank it in one sip while talking about the Zhao Guo diplomat on the opposite side. Mara smiled bitterly, then poured all the wine into his stomach in one breath, yes, pour, he didn't even dare to use his throat. He felt hot all over and his throat was hot. It's hard to drink, Zhao Guo's wine is too violent. This made them accustomed to the soft wine and suddenly couldn't adapt to it.

"Cough, cough, cough." Mara coughed violently. This was uncontrollable. He felt like his whole body was on fire.

"Hahaha. Have some food and some flatbread. Such a meal can make you relax. In short, it is good for you." Zhao Ji said. Mara really doesn't like Zhao Guocai, or that these dishes have greatly exceeded his expectations. Under such circumstances, he simply couldn't calm himself down. This was a huge torture for him, and such torture made him unbearable.

Zhao Guo’s wine may be a good wine, but it’s very uncomfortable here. Their wine is too strong. Great momentum. This makes them simply unable to withstand such wine.

"We also have a kind of wine, not wheat, but made with things like corn and sweet potatoes. This kind of wine is very popular in the army, you know?" Zhao Ji said after pouring himself a glass of wine.

"That kind of wine can be directly used as fuel. Because it can be ignited directly. We Zhao people like to buy that kind of wine for frustration. Once applied on the body, it can be ignited all at once, which is very comfortable. This is a wonderful thing. Healing method." The other party said so.

Mara couldn't believe what kind of wine it was. Many of their wines could not be ignited at all, but Zhao Guoren wine could be ignited. He had seen Zhao Guo's soldiers drinking, they would light the wine before drinking, and then drank it all at once. Oh my God, when he came here, he had already prepared such equipment, or in other words, he had decided that drinking such wine made himself uncomfortable.

In fact, most of that kind of wine is blended wine, that is, blended with alcohol. Their raw materials come from sweet potatoes, that is, potatoes. This high-yield crop from the Americas has solved most of the agricultural problems in the country of Zhao. A large number of potatoes are grown in the country of Zhao. For this, the people of Zhao country invented a lot of potato foods, potato cakes, Potato rice, potato soup, and potato porridge, they like potatoes very much. They think that without potatoes, their meals are simply impossible to eat. Not only these, they also use potatoes, that is, potatoes, sweet potatoes, he has various names, called American yam in the west of the Taihang Mountains, and called yam egg, or yam in the east of the sun room. In short. There are many names for him, one for each area, but they are all potatoes.

Potatoes contain a lot of starch. After extracting the starch, Zhao people can make a large number of military cans for storage and export. Potatoes are rich in starch, which allows them to brew a lot of alcohol. Zhao State is an oil-poor country. It was only later that such a problem was solved through a large amount of imports. However, oil still needs a large amount of imports and is relatively expensive because of the long distance.

Before that, Zhao Guoren used alcohol to fuel his motor vehicles. Therefore, a lot of things like alcohol flow into the market. When driving a motor vehicle, they will drink such spirits to make themselves happy.

The wine of Zhao people is very strong, because part of their area belongs to the mountainous area, and at the same time they are close to the north, where the people are sturdy, and the whole Zhao people are also the same. Therefore, alcohol is not unfamiliar to them. They like things like this. Alcohol can drive them out of the cold.

Not only people from Zhao, but people from Yan also like such alcoholic beverages. The land of Yanzhao is extremely cold, and in the northern part of Qin, the food and alcoholic beverages from the south can’t satisfy their appetite. They need an alcoholic beverage that can excite their nerves, and the alcohol brewed from potatoes and corn meets their needs, especially the alcoholic beverages brewed from potatoes. They like it even more. They like the one that hits them all at once. The feeling of the whole person is very alluring, awakening all their cells, this is the place that makes them the most crazy. The people of Yan also like it. The economic situation in Yan is quite a lot. Many people use alcohol to relieve their sorrows. They like a more aggressive alcoholic beverage that can instantly put them into a state. Obviously this kind of alcohol fits well. Their appetite.

But this is suffering for Mara. He knows that Zhao people can fight. This is the same as their alcohol. They have a strong momentum. Many times, they hope to use force to solve problems. This makes Mara very worried, whether his plan will succeed, or in other words. He didn't know the probability of success at all.

"I think alcohol is not suitable for motor vehicles. I think the best thing is oil. You know, there is an oil expert who said that under us, there is a lot of oil, which is oil. The area is huge." Mara said.

"We have tried to exploit such an oil zone, but we may not have the technology in place to extract such things. Our government also needs a lot of oil. However, in terms of technology, we still lack. We know that you There is such a technique." Mara seemed to be very careful. He didn't know whether to say that. But he still did. He has no way out, and if he doesn't do this, many things won't be solved.

"I know, you have been doing this kind of temptation many times. But you haven't seen the oil, right?" Zhao Ji said after a sip. His face was flushed, like this after drinking.

"Yes, yes, that's it." Mara said. He believes that it is better to tell the truth, but it is difficult if you don't tell the truth.

"In this situation, we understand that what you lack is not only the technology, but also the capital, right?" Zhao Ji drank the wine in the glass in one breath. There were two or two in that glass, but the other party just drank it as if drinking water. Dry, this way of drinking makes them feel very scared, perhaps it is a very worrying practice.

"Yes, we are not only lacking these things, more things make us lacking, we can't do more and more things like this, these things, you know, it’s difficult for us to solve them all at once. Such a problem." Mara said.

"Very well, you told the truth. I know your government can make a lot of money by selling oil because of its financial situation. We can cooperate, but we need some cheap and good oil. Some of the oil wells need to be managed by ourselves. Conditions, do you agree? If you agree, we will provide relevant technical support." Zhao Ji drank twice again, which is more than a catty and a half. Mara is very worried, if he drinks like this, can the other party talk happily.

"Okay, we agree to such a condition." Mara agreed, because if the situation goes on, the other party might get drunk. In that case, their negotiation would be meaningless. This is for him. This is an extremely unfavorable situation, and this kind of thing will make their situation very unfavorable.

"Very good, very good." Zhao Ji filled the two cups at once, oh my god, for Mara, it was torture. Two two. This is the most unbearable place for them.

"Cheers, to our happy cooperation, cheers." The other party said with a smile.

"Clang." At the sound of being touched, the other party drew off the alcoholic drink in his hand in one breath. While Mara grinned bitterly, he poured it into his mouth in one breath. It was a very crazy drink, and it made him very uncomfortable. But he must drink it. This is their cooperation. Such cooperation will solve many, many problems for him. This is a very cost-effective sale. Such a thing is just drinking to death, and he thinks it is worth it. His property will come back.

South Korea, Xinzheng, Ministry of War.

"Damn it. This is a matter for civilian officials, why is it left to our army to take care of." The Secretary of the Army threw out a report and said.

"Sir, this document is very important. The colonial authorities have encountered a rare severe drought. The local people are in very bad condition. If we can allocate some food in time, I think some problems can be solved." The assistant ran over. Speaking of this.

"So, this is not a matter for the Department of the Army. We are only reporting such a thing. I cannot solve such a problem. Moreover, there is no local food for transporting food. The only way is to dispatch from Nanyang, from various places of my own. There is no need to dispatch such a large amount of food to solve such a thing. This is an extremely **** thing. I really don't know who did it." The Minister said.

"Take it, and hand it to the person who should take these reports, no matter who it is, whoever solves such problems, in short, let them solve these things by themselves." The Secretary of the Army said.

"Yes. Sir." The assistant nodded and left here. Their chiefs were very difficult to deal with. This is an urgent telegram sent by various army departments. They hope their chiefs will quickly resolve such matters, because at present, food is required. More powerful than ammunition. But their chiefs did not understand this reasoning. They thought it was a matter of other departments. They hoped that their chiefs would put pressure on them because they felt that such a situation would lead them to a difficult problem to solve because of this. Things will make their situation even more unfavorable.

Riot may be the only thing the local people can do. Once such a thing happens, it will explode throughout the Indy Continent.

However, such worries have turned into excuses between various departments. The Secretary of the Army believes that this is not his business, and that this is the responsibility of other departments. Why should the Department of the War take the responsibility? This is unreasonable. Therefore, he refused to be responsible for such things.

Could it be other departments? Because this means that many of their circumstances are changing.

Qin State, Xianyang. Prime Minister's House.

"I think that such a situation may trigger a large-scale riot. Because the measures taken by the Koreans are extremely untimely, it is bad and too difficult for them to solve such things by themselves under such circumstances." Speaking of this.

"Well, it seems so." Shang Wen said. In fact, Qin State has been studying meteorology, and they conducted large-scale surveys of the weather in the entire Central Plains. They noticed. Most of the water vapor comes from two places, the first is the southeast direction of the South, where is the Pacific Ocean, and the second is the southwest, which comes from the southwest monsoon in India. These are the two main reasons for precipitation. After Qin occupied Bashu, he carefully studied the local climate. The appearance of airplanes allowed them to notice more southern areas. They discovered today’s Guizhou, but there is a mountainous area. Qin’s military proposed to establish a series of air bases and then conduct military operations based on them. There would be direct access to Yunnan. In this case, it would be bordered by Chu and Qi’s Burma.

Such a plan was not approved. The reason is that the cost is relatively large, because another plan was directly rejected. The situation is very simple, that is to build a railway, there is a mountainous area, the terrain is too complicated.

"Now there is very dry and lack of food. We can use food attacks to attack. We provide food, accept our management, or recruit troops. In short, this is a very favorable opportunity." The Minister of Agriculture said.

This is the gift brought by the late arrival of the southwest monsoon, which is always the case.
