With the Famous Name of the Three Kingdoms

Although the Maritime Silk Road was cut off by Japan and Vietnam, and the Land Silk Road was squeezed by the countries of the Western Regions, Qin Xiaobai had financial difficulties, and his face looked sad as if he was about to die in minutes. [Read the latest chapter..]

But in fact, he still can bear it.

Qin Xiaobai is completely a Pixiu, he can only get in and out, and he even plucks his hair.

Especially after swallowing the treasures of the regular servants, the inner treasury of the imperial palace, having the Captain Mojin, and opening the Silk Road, this guy hoarded a lot of small money.

The simplest example is that Qin Xiaobai has upgraded Chen Ajiao's golden house to the prince level.

Just demolishing this golden house can also remove tens of millions of taels of gold. God knows how much private money this guy has hidden...

What's more, Qin Xiaobai still has a tribute tax right now, which is equivalent to mastering the tax revenue of the entire thirteen states of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

And he directly governs the three counties of Sili, Bingzhou, and the four counties outside the Great Wall.

The four counties outside the Great Wall were Qin Xiaobai's first territory to occupy. Although it was remote and desolate at the beginning, it has been well developed to attract investment and investment. Showing vitality, it is called the frontier of Jiangnan.

As for Bingzhou, it was stronger than the four counties outside the Great Wall from the beginning, and Qin Xiaobai even swallowed it without compromising his vitality, and now he has also begun to continuously consolidate and develop.

Not to mention the last Si Li, since the Qin Dynasty, then the Western Han Dynasty to the present Eastern Han Dynasty have all established their capital here. After hundreds of years, it has been the center of the world, and it is naturally the most prosperous.

If it wasn't for Dong Zhuo's unscrupulous cholera in the later Three Kingdoms period, and then Li urged Guo Bang's cholera, and then Ma Teng and Han Sui from Xiliang ran over to kick him, Sili would definitely be the most important place in the Three Kingdoms period.

Compared with Sili in its heyday, there is no need to mention Jingzhou, the land of plenty, Yizhou, the land of abundance, Jizhou, and Yangzhou.

Even in history, the Sili area was so cholera. Later, during the Cao Wei period, Xuchang, which had been in business for a long time, was still abandoned, and Luoyang was chosen to return to the capital. It can be seen that the economic, cultural, and political center of Sili is still an irreplaceable existence in any era.

And now Sili. Although Dong Zhuo was in trouble, Qin Xiaobai saved it from Dong Zhuo in time, let alone let Dong Zhuo burn Luoyang, and kept most of its population and economy, making it still one of the richest regions in the thirteen prefectures of the Eastern Han Dynasty one.

Not to mention. Those who now rule over Great Wall, Bingzhou, and Sili,

Or Li Si, Fan Ju, Xiao He, these three famous figures through the ages.

Qin Xiaobai's previous policy for the three places outside the Great Wall, Bingzhou, and Sili was to invest heavily in construction. Not only did the tax revenue of the three places be used as a locality, but the central government also continued to allocate funds to accelerate the recovery and development of the three places.

Although the current economic status of the three places has not developed to the most prosperous state in Qin Xiaobai's ideal, it is still very rich in officials and people, and it is already very good.

Now it can be changed according to the situation. Let the three places temporarily suspend construction, implement a frugal policy, and bring local tax revenue into the national treasury, so as to add a strong and sustainable financial source for the central government.

With all these things, even if the golden road is broken, Qin Xiaobai can still bear it. Even if he wants to start the most expensive national war, he can support it for a while.

"It's not that I don't know, the family background is quite solid..."

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaobai's mood eased a lot. Even if you lose a pair of king bombs, do you still have a good hand...

...

But if he can bear it, he can bear it, breaking two golden roads is like breaking his left and right arms.

The small purse didn't have enough income and couldn't bulge up. At that time, if the national war is really going to start, he will have to go shopping for his family fortune, which still makes Qin Xiaobai very uncomfortable.

Therefore, the issue of the overland Silk Road still needs to be resolved.

Since he can't write without writing, he can only rely on external forces now.

There is a Xiongnu in the remote middle of the Western Regions, which is not within the sphere of influence of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the countries of the Western Regions border on the Huns. But he had to worry about the movements of the Huns.

The relationship between the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Southern Huns has always been very complicated. The Southern Huns nominally belonged to the Eastern Han Dynasty, but in fact they did not miss the Caogu of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The Eastern Han Dynasty regained the Xiongnu in name, but in fact, it never regarded the Southern Xiongnu as its own people, and kept strictly guarding and suppressing the Xiongnu.

But no matter how the two are divided and combined internally, they remain the same in name.

When it came to Qin Xiaobai, the situation became even more complicated, because Qin Xiaobai not only subdued the Xiongnu again, but also let the Xiongnu belong to the Northern Cypriot Protectorate.

Moreover, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, and Long Xiaoyin were dispatched to break into the Xiongnu.

So in fact, Qin Xiaobai actually had a great influence on the Huns.

This was originally the power that Qin Xiaobai planned to use in the future, but now he can also use it to let the Xiongnu put pressure on the countries in the Western Regions and dredge his Silk Road.

Although the Xiongnu conquered the Western Regions during their heyday, but now that the Xiongnu has fallen, perhaps the Western Regions will not buy too much from the Xiongnu.

But after all, the Xiongnu borders the countries of the Western Regions, at least it can restrain the countries of the Western Regions.

As for the golden road of the Silk Road, even if the countries in the Western Regions were less exploited by a few percent, they could still make considerable profits, which reduced Qin Xiaobai's financial burden a lot.

After all, as soon as the national war broke out, the Five Husbands would follow. Most of Qin Xiaobai's focus will be on the north. It is unknown how long it will take for the south to flatten Vietnam and re-open the Maritime Silk Road.

Even if the Maritime Silk Road is re-opened, the initial trade volume of the Maritime Silk Road cannot be compared with the systematically recognized Land Silk Road.

Therefore, the overland Silk Road is particularly important, and it is a little bit more to fight for it.

Of course, no matter how influential Qin Xiaobai was on the Xiongnu, it was impossible for the Xiongnu to work for nothing, and the benefits would naturally have to be divided among others.

So Qin Xiaobai planned to let the Xiongnu take a stake in the Silk Road, and if there is a small amount of money, everyone can earn it together, so that the Xiongnu will not be afraid of not making great efforts.

In fact, Qin Xiaobai had this idea before, but later, a merchant in Lu Buwei opened the Silk Road with food aid when a large-scale disaster occurred in the Huns.

Qin Xiaobai didn't invest in the Xiongnu anymore, but now it's just in time to use it.

While investing in the Huns, it can also ensure that the Huns will not cut off the Silk Road when China is in chaos in the future.

After all, doing so would ruin his own job.

With an undercover agent in hand, Qin Xiaobai can completely fool Liu Bao and Xu Bu Guduhou from the air, telling them what war is war and trade is trade...

And after letting the Xiongnu taste the sweetness of the Silk Road, which can fill their small purses, it is estimated that they will be the same as Qin Xiaobai, and they will never stop...

...

Not long after the matter of the Silk Road was settled, another big news came.

"No, come again..." After receiving important news twice in a row, Qin Xiaobai, who was deeply shocked when he learned that the two golden roads were cut off, couldn't help but put his hands on his forehead and wanted to cry. tears……

But thinking about it, it seems that he has nothing to cheat now, and he is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, so finally Qin Xiaobai mustered up the courage to open the memorial and check it out...

But fortunately, this time it is not bad news, but a great piece of good news.

Captain Mojin finally dug through the imperial tomb, and found a scroll of jade slips from the imperial tomb, on which the word "Tianjuan" was engraved. (To be continued.)
