When the number and scale of merchants reaches a certain level, they must be a terrifying existence that cannot be ignored. The presidents of various state chambers of commerce, even those in the government, must be given some face.

Of course, the president of the chamber of commerce needs to be recognized by the government.

Looking at the large number of merchants on the street, Artaban fell into thinking. Merchants are an important part of the Jin State. They may seem inconspicuous at ordinary times, but isn't the conflict between Kushan and the Jin State precisely because of the merchants?

The merchants of the Jin State took away a large amount of materials and money from Kuishang, which worried the senior officials of the Kushan State and expelled the merchants of the Jin State. This was the reason why the Jin State sent troops. Although this was the reason for the Jin Emperor to send troops, But it is not difficult to see how terrible the merchants of Jin were.

Aldaban also has contact with Jin's fine wines and some daily necessities. It has to be admitted that Jin has great advantages in this regard, and such advantages will make the business path of Jin's merchants more convenient. smoothly.

If you have good relations with Jin, then Jin's merchants will inevitably go to the Parthian Empire in large numbers.

In fact, there are many Jin merchants in the Parthian Empire now. These merchants bring goods needed by the nobles of the Parthian Empire, and they have gained a lot of benefits in the Parthian Empire.

On the other hand, it is obviously difficult for Anxi merchants to do business from Jin and take away a lot of benefits. It cannot be said that Anxi merchants are not as good as Jin in terms of business methods, but in terms of the rarity and attractiveness of their goods, Compared with the Jin State, there is a big gap.

The Parthian Empire valued the power of merchants, but what they would see was the terrifying power of Jin merchants.

He shook his head and put these things behind his mind for the time being. Repairing the relationship with Jin was the most important thing. Of course, Artaban had many complaints against the emperor of Jin at this time. If it weren't for the emperor of Jin If he tore up the alliance and attacked the Parthian army, he would still be the powerful and powerful person in the Parthian Dynasty at this time.

But such complaints could not be expressed in front of the emperor of Jin or even the officials of Jin.

The strong national power of the Jin State was the greatest source of confidence for the Jin Emperor. If he wanted to provoke the Jin Emperor, the first thing he needed to consider was whether he could withstand the Jin Emperor's anger.

The top leaders of the Parthian Empire will be worried about the future actions of the Jin State. It is precisely because of the strong strength of the Jin State. If the Jin State cannot do anything to the Parthian Empire, how can the Parthian Empire be on good terms with the Jin State again.

A war will not start unless it is necessary. A war will only be launched when there is more certainty.

The strength of the Jin army is worthy of fear, and when dealing with the emperor of Jin, strategy is even more important.

The Jin army that came out of the victory in the war showed a different spirit. The Parthian soldiers who came with Artaban on this trip naturally showed dissatisfaction with the Jin army.

Tearing up the alliance was considered a shameful act by the soldiers in the army, and their failure was due to Jin breaking the alliance.

It's just that these things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. It should be noted that the Jin army at that time was fighting against the Kushan army. How confident was the emperor of Jin that he dared to attack the Anxi army at such a time? However, the emperor of Jin won in such an action and became the biggest profiteer on the Kushan battlefield.

When facing such a monarch, you often need to be more cautious, because you don't know what the other person's thoughts are, and you don't know what kind of action the other person will take next.

And as the territory of Jin State borders Parthia, there will definitely be no shortage of conflicts in the future, and the exchanges between the two sides will become more frequent. Who will gain the greatest benefits at such a time? Jin State will undoubtedly be the one. A terrifying existence.

The Parthian Empire's envoys attracted a lot of attention in the city. It should be noted that there was a deep hatred between the Parthian Empire and the Kushan Empire in the past.

If the Parthian Empire and the Jin State were on good terms, it would be better to say that the key point is that the alliance between the two parties has been torn up. Even if there is no direct conflict in the city, some officials from the original Kushan can still do it to embarrass them.

This also allowed the original Kushan officials to realize the benefits of being strong. The Anxi envoy team dared not speak out in anger. If they took action in the city, they would be greeted by the anger of the Jin emperor. Such anger was not The rest of the messenger team can bear.

Strong strength will bring more guarantees to the development of the Jin State, making the people of the Jin State more proud when walking outside, because they are the people under the rule of the Emperor of the Jin State. If If someone offends them, their emperor will take action to make the offending person pay the price.

Such pride is gradually taking shape. This is what Lu Bu wants to see. If the people in the country have no confidence, even if the territory is vast and there is no self-confidence, how can such an empire last long?

The news from the servants made Artaban frown. Naturally, there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart. However, in Peshawar, the Anxi envoy team had many enemies, and the relationship with the Jin State had not been repaired. , acting rashly will result in more punishment. Artaban is quite clear about the reasoning behind this.

The victor of the war will have more say. The emperor of Jin and the original people of Kushan were absolutely proud when they treated the messengers of Anxi.

Who made the Parthian army suffer the price of failure on the battlefield of Kushan? Now that the emperor of Jin is getting married, the Parthian king sent an envoy to arrive, but he did not receive a grand reception. He only enjoyed the official relationship with the Roman Empire. Just treated like an envoy.

In fact, the real treatment enjoyed by the Roman Empire was much better than that of the Parthian Empire's envoys. Artaban also had channels to obtain news in Peshawar.

This gave Artaban an uneasy feeling. Such a scene was so familiar. The envoys of the Kushan Empire were also despised in Chang'an, the capital of the Jin State. Then the Parthian Empire and the Jin State allied to attack the Guishan Empire. Things about the Frost Empire.

Today, the treatment enjoyed by the Roman Empire's envoys is not comparable to that of the Parthian Empire. However, the relationship between the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire is not that harmonious.

"Could it be that the emperor of Jin intends to form an alliance with the Roman Empire?" Artaban thought to himself: "If this is true, the Parthian Empire will be in danger."

Artaban knew how powerful the Roman Empire was. In the process of fighting with the Roman Empire, the Parthian Empire's army rarely took advantage.

However, Artaban knew that his position in the Parthian Empire was quite embarrassing at this time. After experiencing the failure of the Kushan War, his influence in the army plummeted. If it had not been for his huge contribution to the development of the Parthian Empire in the past, If it were true, just because of the defeat, it would be enough for him to withdraw from the top ranks of the Parthian Empire.

However, after this incident happened, Artaban realized the benefits of power. Only by gaining more power can he have a more stable position in the empire. Just look at the emperor of Jin and you will know the benefits of power. .

If you want to have good relations with the Jin State, you must pay a certain price, and all aspects of the relationship need to be taken care of.

It is not difficult for other people with a team of envoys to handle such matters. The key is that meeting the emperor of Jin is not an easy task.

The victory of Kushan on the battlefield made Jin's territory more vast and made the Jin emperor's status more respected. However, because of the conflict between the Parthian Empire and Jin, it was normal that the Jin emperor would not see him easily.

The emperor also wanted to save face. After all, it was the emperor of Jin who broke the alliance in the first place. If it was mentioned to others in person, it would always be embarrassing.

The benefits brought by victory in the war to the emperor of Jin were obvious, and Artaban wanted to ease the relationship with the emperor of Jin, and even got help from the emperor of Jin in some matters. Building friendships is essential.

Among them, Guo Jia, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, was the official whom Artaban paid special attention to.

Without him, Guo Jia had a very high status in the heart of the Jin emperor. In the past, when envoys from other countries arrived in Chang'an, the fastest way to see the emperor was to get through Guo Jia's joints. Otherwise, they would be placed with other officials. The process of implementation will be more difficult.

Not all officials in the Jin State were clean, but they were more measured when accepting money. Some officials who received money would even take the initiative to hand it over.

With the official situation of Jin State being like this, Guo Jia seems to be quite different, but this also shows Guo Jia's extraordinary status in Jin State.

This time Aldaban still followed Guo Jia's path. Unlike when he met Guo Jia in Chang'an, now when he met Guo Jia in Peshawar, Aldaban seemed much more reserved.

The situation is worse than others. At this time, in the land of Kushan, the powerful Jin army has a great advantage in the war. The Parthian Empire, which does not want to provoke the Jin State more, faces the powerful strength of the Jin State. Needs to be given more respect.

Besides, Artaban was seeking help from Guo Jia this time, so he could still keep his attitude straight.

"Guo Shangshu." Artaban said with a smile: "I heard that Shangshu has been busy in the city recently and is very tired. When I heard about it, I was worried. These items are for Shangshu's nourishment. I hope Shangshu will not refuse."

A trace of reluctance flashed across Guo Jia's expression. He glanced at these items and shook his head, "Prince, you'd better take these things back. I'm still young, so all this hard work is nothing."

"What? Is there something else going on?" Artaban asked in a low voice as he signaled his followers to leave.

There were only two people left in the room, and Guo Jia sighed: "I know the prince's thoughts, but the relationship between the Holy Emperor and An Anxi is now tense. If I accept these things and get criticized, it will be more than I gain. Now in the court , there are many people criticizing me, and if they have the leverage, I really can’t bear it.”

"Guo Shangshu, how could this happen? With Shangshu's position in the emperor's heart, how dare these officials dare to be so presumptuous?" Artaban asked in confusion.

Guo Jiajiang briefly explained the duties of the Yushitai, and also told Aldaban the causes and consequences.

Aldaban nodded slightly, "The Yushitai is not bad. It allows officials to perform their duties, but the minister's actions are also for the stability of the empire. How can the officials of Chang'an do this?"

"Queen Guishuang is a foreigner after all, and some officials are pedantic. She thinks this is because of my own deception. It's very difficult for me, and I don't even dare to return to Chang'an." Guo Jia sighed.

Aldaban said: "With the emperor's protection, who dares to be presumptuous in front of the minister?"

"Prince still doesn't know much about the Kingdom of Jin." Guo Jia waved his hand, "Prince, please come back. I understand your purpose, but I can't help you."

Artaban coughed lightly, "Shang Shu, I came in a hurry and didn't bring many precious things. The minister must accept these thoughts."

A box was opened gently for Artaban and he nodded to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "When the Holy Master summons me next time, I can introduce him to the prince."

"There are two boxes outside, both belonging to the minister." Aldaban said.

Guo Jia pondered for a moment and said sternly: "The Parthian Empire and the Jin State are on good terms, but there are conflicts only because of some things. At this time, the relationship between the two countries has eased, which is not a trivial matter. I will go to the palace later to ask for an audience with the Holy Emperor, and for the prince The recommendation is just that it won’t come to the prince’s request to see the Holy Master, so I know what he is doing.”

Artaban secretly despised him. Among the Jin officials, in his opinion, the most greedy was Guo Jia, the Minister of War. He was greedy because of the favor of the Jin emperor, but Guo Jia was able to do things that other officials could not do. It cannot be denied.

In Peshawar, it was as difficult to meet the emperor of Jin as it was to meet the queen in the city in the past.

It can be said that the emperor of the Jin Dynasty at this time could make people rich and prosperous as well as make people die by issuing an order.

Guo Jia's recommendation is particularly important.

"Of course it is for the sake of good relations between the two countries." Ardaband said.

Guo Jiadao: "Wang Zai, you can't trust me. Many things about the Holy Emperor are planned by me. If you don't tell the truth, I won't be able to recommend you. Otherwise, once you conflict with the Holy Emperor, you will be in trouble." You have become an official, right?"

"Guo Shangshu's worries are also justified, but this matter is of great importance. Guo Shangshu must not spread it to outsiders."

Guo Jia nodded with disdain in his heart. What else could the Parthian Empire's envoy come to Peshawar for? Is it to ease the relationship between the Parthian Empire and the Jin State? If the relationship between the two parties continues to be in such a bad state , it is entirely possible for the Jin army to attack the Parthian Empire.

Seeing the Jin army's invincible victory on the battlefield and seeing the Jin army's powerful strength and methods will inevitably make An'an's senior officials more fearful of the Jin army.
