“With Zhou Junwei’s expression like this, could it be that something happened to the fund-raising matter?”

Li You hesitated and said.

In order to raise funds, Li You not only summoned the powerful and wealthy households in the entire Persian county, but also sent propaganda specialists to Seleucid, Tianzhu, and even Macedonia and Ptolemaic Egypt. Due to the long distance, Because of this, Zhou Bo was asked to dispatch county soldiers to escort him.

Now that Zhou Bo came with a strange look, in Li You’s opinion, there was probably a problem with fundraising.

“The governor has misunderstood. The current fundraising work is going very smoothly. The Seleucid region alone has raised 160 million yuan, half of which came from the original Seleucid royal family. They also I am very eager to have a pilgrimage road directly to Xianyang.”

Zhou Bo quickly explained.

Since the arrival of the Great Qin Heavenly Army, Seleucus, who was about to be beaten to the capital by the Romans, finally no longer has to worry about the tragic fate of his country being destroyed and his family destroyed. The local dignitaries and people also relatively recognize the Great Qin.

Being After nearly a hundred years of violent beatings by the Romans, the Seleucids had long lost the pride they had during the Alexander Empire. They were terrified all day long and only wanted to have a stable living environment. Therefore, in the end, they were still facing the pressure of the Qin Dynasty. I chose to accept it.

The reason is very simple. Being a resident of the civilized and reasonable Great Qin is much better than becoming a slave of the Romans, right?

Especially after the Great Qin took over, not only did it no longer need to worry about the threat of the Roman barbarian legions, the common people Life actually got a lot better.

Ordinary Seleucid people were immediately affected.

Both Seleucid and Persia were semi-slave societies, and ordinary people’s lives were very difficult.

For those who brought them hope , Everyone in Da Qin is very grateful.

Especially the free schools and medical clinics have made many Seleucid people, like the local people in Da Qin, set up Fusu longevity tablets at home and worship them every day. The noble class Although he was dissatisfied with not being able to continue to dominate, he soon became honest after the Qin army effortlessly uprooted several nobles who dared to jump out and cause rebellion.

Seleucus could not even defeat the Romans, and The Heavenly Army of Qin destroyed 300,000 Roman elites at once, and was a terrifying entity that forced the Romans to surrender. Fighting against Da

Qin was purely a method of death.

Even the Seleucid royal family knelt down. What else could these nobles do?

After a period of time, the Seleucid nobles were also surprised to find that under the governance of the Qin Dynasty, although they did not have the privileges of being superior in the past, they could actually live quite comfortably.

Especially The business environment in Daqin is excellent. Anyone who is willing to do business in a down-to-earth manner can make a very good income.

Although he has lost his power, it is quite good to be rich and be a free man.

Especially some time ago , a great locust plague broke out along the entire Mediterranean coast, and the harvests in summer and autumn suffered losses.

While Rome and Carthage were starving, Seleucid and Persian counties could easily survive with the support of the Qin mainland, which made it even more difficult for them to survive. All the Seleucids understood the meaning of enjoying the shade under a big tree.

Therefore, the entire Seleucid region was very active in raising funds for the railway this time.

The Seleucid royal family, under the call of Theia, who had already married into the prince’s palace, , took the lead in taking out the royal family’s many years of inventory and subscribing for a total of 80 million yuan in railway stocks.

Many Seleucids directly called this railway a road of pilgrimage and a road of hope.

“Since the fundraising went so smoothly, why are you doing this?”

Li You suddenly said angrily.

“Sheriff, you will know after reading this letter yourself.”

Zhou Bo spread his hands, took out a letter written in both Qin and Roman, and handed it to Li Youdao.

Even Li You couldn’t help but be stunned.

“Is there something wrong with the Romans’ brains, and they actually want to ask me, Da Qin, to build a railway for them too?”

Li You checked each word over and over again before speaking in disbelief.

“He must have been fighting with the Carthaginians for too long and his brain is wet.

Zhou Bo also looked puzzled and said,”Then what should we do now?””

“This matter is of great importance and must be reported to Xianyang and handed over to His Highness the Crown Prince for handling.” (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“However, while Fei Ge sent back the letter, he also wanted to step up his intelligence work on Rome. The governor wanted to see what the Romans were planning.”

Li You thought for a long time before speaking.

Although he was in Persia County, Li You also knew that Ying Zheng had already completely handed over the affairs of the Western Regions to Fusu.

And when it came to understanding of the Western Regions, the entire Great Qin did not No one can compare with Fusu.

The entire Western Region was conquered by Fusu for the Qin Dynasty, which is proof[]

Daqin, outside Xianyang City, at the foot of the Qinling Mountains.

Ying Zheng and the civil and military officials in the court all looked excited.

Because today, with the joint efforts of gunpowder and steam machinery, as well as tens of thousands of craftsmen, the first Qinling Tunnel in the Qin Dynasty was finally completed.

This is absolutely of extremely important significance to Daqin’s engineering construction.

Because from this day on, the people of Qin truly lived up to the myth of the Foolish Old Man who moved mountains.

From now on, the Qinling Mountains will no longer become an obstacle to Xianyang City’s traffic.

The last difficulty that hindered the completion of the entire Xianluo Railway was completely solved by the people of Daqin.

It only needs to continue to dig out the remaining tunnels and connect them with the railway sections that have been constructed in sections. The Xianluo Railway can be completely completed.

By then, Xianyang City will be completely integrated with Luoyang, realizing morning and evening arrivals.

“Such a magnificent project was simply unimaginable before!”

“Only His Royal Highness can create so many miracles.”

Meng Yi stood in the tunnel, looking at the cement supports around him and the light at the entrance of the tunnel, and he felt very moved.

“This is just the beginning. The Xianluo Railway is only a thousand miles long. It is truly magnificent. A thousand-mile railway connecting Xianyang to Jiangnan, Liaodong and Persia is already under planning.”

“That is the foundation that truly laid the foundation for our supreme empire of Qin, which the sun never sets.”

“I really hope that by then I can take a train and travel to every part of my country in the Qin Dynasty!”

Ying Zheng said with a smile.

“Jiangnan and Liaodong are not bad. The people in the prefectures and counties they pass are very supportive of the railway, and the fundraising and personnel recruitment and training are quite smooth.”

“It’s along this Persian railway line that I still have no idea.”

“I hope everything goes well, otherwise I really have no choice but to borrow money from Da Qin Royal Bank. The annual interest is a huge amount!”

Nei Shiteng was silent for a long time, but he still had the courage to speak.

Ying Zheng and others couldn’t help but have a look of solemnity on their faces.

Yes, after all, Jiangnan and Liaodong are the mainland of Great Qin, and they are completely within control.

But Persia, thousands of miles away, is really a headache.

I really hope that the railway can reach Persia immediately, then I can feel relieved.
