Chapter 1085

"Just because Persia and Ottoman want to weigh the cost of offending us, I'm afraid we have to use both soft and hard diplomatic language. If we make a mistake, there will be serious consequences. You should be prepared for that."

Tang Wenjie said his worries.

Fang Fang Heng said calmly: "if there are no countless ancestors who have poured their blood on the battlefield these years, how can the Empire today have such a huge territory? If it is afraid of death, what kind of diplomat can it be?"

Tang Wenjie showed a look of appreciation. He looked at the other members of the league, some as firm as a house, and some worried.

He didn't mean to say anything. He just nodded and said, "I'm afraid it's 5000 kilometers' sea route from Singapore to Persia. It's estimated that we'll have to float for ten and a half days on the sea. Take advantage of your spare time to review the system of the Persian Empire."

Having said that, he himself took out a pamphlet and read it. The present Persian Empire is actually a monarchy and centralized state.

One of them is called Diwan, which is the mainstay of the central power. This Diwan is equivalent to the Privy Council of the former Dayu state. The highest official of the Privy Council is called dawaqir, which is equivalent to the prime minister.

This Diwan is further divided into departments in charge of military affairs, finance, household registration, official administration, religion and diplomacy.

It is the so-called "know your enemy and know your friend" that can win a hundred battles. He dares not neglect anything when it comes to his life.

Twelve days later, the fleet finally arrived at Abbas, the Persian port city, and saw six huge armored ships appear in the port.

The Persians in the harbor were terrified. They had never seen such a ship in their life.

The turmoil in the port soon attracted the Persian army in the city. These Persian soldiers with swords occupied the port.

"If this Persia is really backward, it still uses cold weapons." Said the house.

Tang Wenjie was watching with a telescope. He said: "it reminds me of Dayu in the past. At that time, Dayu was not enterprising and self-centered. Similarly, today's Ottoman and Persia are in such a state. They refuse to accept the changes of the world, and now they are gradually left behind."

The house Heng nodded, and then he said, "it's time for us to explain what we've come for. Now you're going to move out the goods that you brought from the Empire, and now they're ready to use."

Although the countries in the world are different, their human nature is generally similar. Therefore, the mission prepared many industrial products and prepared to bribe some Persian businessmen to guide them.

It would be more perfect to meet Persian businessmen who have been to the Chinese Empire.

He thought so, when a small boat came from the harbor to the fleet, and on the boat was a man like an officer.

When he got near, the Persian officer called out nervously, "who are you and where are you from?"

At this time, Fangheng replied in Arabic, "we are a delegation from the eastern Chinese Empire. We are here to meet your monarch."

"There is a big Yu kingdom in the East. I have never heard of any Chinese Empire." The officer was a little surprised.

Fang Hengwen had to tell the cause and effect once again. At this time, the Persian officer realized that he was still very alert to Tang Wenjie and his party. After all, the warship full of guns and armor was too terrible.

Seeing the officer's hesitation, Tang Wenjie took out a small cloth bag and threw it down, saying, "I hope you can inform me."

The officer caught the cloth bag and opened it. His eyes suddenly earned a lot. Inside the bag were ten crystal clear gems, which were very beautiful.

The two Persian soldiers on board also saw it, showing the light of wonder and greed.

"OK, I'll send someone to taixifeng now, but it will take a month to go back and forth." The officer said excitedly, and he was very excited to get such a gem.

He had never seen such a beautiful gem, and he believed that if he sold it, he could get a lot of money.

"We'll be waiting on the boat all the time." Tangwenjie showed helpless look, Persian capital taixifeng in inland, and this is the nearest port from taixifeng.

At this time, the officer completely let go of the wariness of Tang Wenjie and his party. He continued: "my name is Pamir. My uncle is the governor. He lives in Abbas city. I think he will welcome you."

"Thank you very much. If possible, you can invite them to our ship. We will treat you ceremoniously. After all, it's a long month." Tang Wenjie and the house always look at each other with cunning in their eyes. This is the opportunity to show them the power of the Empire.

Pamir was even happier. He nodded, put the jewel in his arms and went ashore.

"A few glasses have achieved such an effect. The power of industry is really terrible." Tang Wenjie said with a smile that what they gave Pamir was not gems at all, but ornamental glass beads produced by imperial glass factory.

In the transparent glass are colorful patterns, which look like gemstones.

"Maybe we can buy oil fields in Persia with glass balls." The house laughed unkindly.The reason why he is so confident is that no one in the world can produce such exquisite glass beads.

It is feasible to use glass beads as gemstones in other places. In the future, it is not possible to ban the sale of glass beads to prevent Persian merchants from buying glass beads from the Empire.

Tang Wenjie was amused by Fang Heng's words. He really had this idea. On the warship, they had a large box of glass beads and glass works of art, which were all prepared for this diplomatic action.

If the negotiations are successful, they will also shoulder the responsibility of establishing good relations with Persian officials. In this way, as long as the oil fields are purchased successfully, the oil problem will be solved.

Feeling a little relaxed because of this small matter, they stood on the deck chatting, not long after, the port suddenly appeared a commotion.

The departing Pamir and a group of soldiers came to the port surrounded by a bearded official in a white robe.

Then the officials said something to Pamir, and they came to their warship by boat.

"Friends from the eastern empire welcome you. I'm bosimi, governor of Abbas. One of my family members once went to your country to buy silk and tea. I know you very well. Now I'm taking him with me. I hope we can have a good time together." Bosimi smiles.

Pamir was shocked by the gems he got. At this time, he thought of the legendary wealth of the eastern empire, and his heart itched. He always welcomed the rich visitors.
