Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the royal palace in Tabriz, the capital of Persia.

    Ismail I was test-driving a Mercedes-Benz car from the Ming Empire. On the wide square, he drove awkwardly at first, but he quickly adapted to driving the car and fell in love with it.

    "This thing is really good. It doesn't need a carriage or a person to drag it. It can walk freely. It's really amazing."

    Ismail I got out of the car and was full of praise for the Mercedes-Benz.

    "Your Majesty, this car is very popular in Daming. However, currently, only the truly rich can afford it. Its price is too expensive. It costs more than 6,000 in Daming."  Two pieces of silver a piece.¡±

    Charland said to Ismaili I with a smile.

    "It costs more than 6,000 taels of silver, which is too expensive."

    "Didn't I say that our Persian Empire is in very difficult circumstances now? We can save all our expenses. These 6,000 taels of silver can buy hundreds of muskets."

    When Ismayi I heard this, he also frowned and said.

    Life in Persia is difficult now.

    The fight with the Spaniards in West Africa was in full swing. Not only did they not get any benefits from the West African colonies, they also invested a lot of money and people every year.

    The Mesopotamia is at war with the Ottoman Empire again, and the fighting between the two sides is fierce. That is to say, there is Egypt to help support it, otherwise the Persian Empire will not be able to support it.

    But even so, they have been losing ground recently and even Baghdad has been lost. If they cannot recapture it, they will have to give up the Mesopotamia.

    Therefore, the Persian Empire had to borrow money from the Ming Empire again to purchase a batch of arms and weapons to increase its strength, and at the same time intended to recapture Baghdad again.

    ????????????????? At least, the Persians in the Mesopotamia can never be lost and must be fought for.

    Almost all of Persia is located on the Persian Plateau, and the natural conditions are not very good. Many areas are desert areas, and the Mesopotamia Basin is the closest, the richest and the best natural condition area.

    Since ancient times, whoever gets the Mesopotamia has the capital and strength to dominate one side. This is a treasure land that Persia will never give up easily.

    In addition, in the past few years, Ismail I has been constantly wiping out the disobedient tribes within the country. At the same time, he has also sent troops to Afghanistan aggressively and occupied the vast Afghan region.

    This time 75 zwz.c om Zhang Si.  In general, money has been spent over the years, and there are few places to put money in, making ends meet, so even Ismail I had to take the lead in being frugal and frugal.

    "Your Majesty, I know."

    "The reason why I asked someone to buy this car is of course not for Your Majesty to enjoy, but to tell Your Majesty how far the Ming Empire has developed."

    "The Ming people have built railways to the South Caucasus, connecting the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea. You can take a train directly from here to the capital of the Ming Dynasty."

    "The Ming people have now developed automobiles, and coupled with the fact that they are already building cement roads everywhere, your majesty can imagine how powerful the Ming Empire is now."

    "It may only take two days for them to dispatch a hundred thousand troops from the Western Regions to the South Caucasus. Even if they dispatch a large army from the Ming Dynasty to the South Caucasus, it will only take less than half a month.  "

    "The wine from Nanyun Province, the grain and cattle and sheep from the Hezhong area can be quickly sent back to the Ming Dynasty for sale."

    "As for our Persian Empire, if we come to Tabriz from Afghanistan in the east, riding a horse is better. What if we need to transport a cart of lapis lazuli?"

    ¡°It may take several months to arrive.¡±

    ¡°I bought this car to remind His Majesty that we must continue to learn from the Ming Empire, so that we in Persia can slowly become as powerful as the Ming Empire!¡±

    Charlande said earnestly.

    He has been to the Ming Empire several times. Once he went to the Ming Empire, he could feel a huge change. The Ming Dynasty developed too fast and changed too much.

    When I went there for the first time, I still took the cement road. At that time, I thought the cement road was incredible.

    When he went there for the second time, he took a train directly to the capital of the Ming Dynasty when he arrived in the Western Regions. He felt the convenience and speed of the train, which even made him have the intention and plan to build a railway in Persia.

    This time I went to Daming to discuss the purchase of arms and weapons.On the north side of the Persian Gulf, Chen believes that we must compete for the Mesopotamia region. This is not only a large granary, but also likely to contain rich oil, which will become the most important source of wealth for us in Persia in the near future.  "

    Challand told Ismaili I in detail what he had experienced when he went to the Ming Empire not long ago. He had a long-term vision and had already seen the future of oil. At the same time, he was always concerned about every move in the Persian Gulf. He knew  The affairs of Ming Dynasty's two colonies here.

    "real?"

    When Ismaili I heard this, he immediately became energetic. He was so poor now that he could only eat ten dishes for a meal, and he was not even willing to decorate his palace with gold.

    Now that he heard that there might be oil in the Mesopotamia, and that this oil might be very profitable in the future, his eyes were shining.

    He desperately needs money to support his ambitions and arm a stronger army.

    "Your Majesty, this is definitely not wrong."

    "No matter what, we must retake the Two Rivers Basin, even if it is divided equally with the Egyptians, we in Persia cannot lose the Two Rivers Basin."

    Charland said solemnly.

    ¡°Hmm~¡±Zhida z.com Zhixiao

    "If the Ottoman Empire also knew about oil, it would be even more difficult."

    Ismail I nodded, and then began to think deeply
