This official uniform is woven of Shu brocade, which is worth a lot of money, and after touching it, Putiai knows that this is not something that ordinary people can afford to wear, nor is it something that ordinary people are qualified to wear.

Anyway, he is not qualified to wear it for the time being.

So Putiay frowned and thought about it.

"I know some officials in my country, I don't know if they can do this for you, but it would have been nice for you to come to the emperor in the name of an envoy at the beginning, but now it's even more troublesome."

Ma Yuan apologized, because he was indeed not an official envoy of the Wei State, he was here to fight the outpost, and if this goal could really be achieved, there would naturally be an official envoy arriving.

Putiai nodded, and had no idea of doing business, saying that he would help Ma Yuan mediate, and then he had a request.

"If this is done, can you take me with you when you return home?"

Ma Yuan understood Putiai's thoughts.

"No problem, we can go to Wei together, I will take you to meet my country."

"Good!"

Putilia was delighted.

In the next few days, Ma Yuan continued to be visited by the Guishan merchants, they were not here to buy any goods, of course, they also had this idea, but the main reason was the same as Putiai.

They also wanted to go back with Ma Yuan when he returned to China, and wanted to go to Wei to see it, and then do business.

They were also willing to run for Ma Yuan and contact the officials of Guishan.

For such a request, Ma Yuan naturally did not refuse, and agreed to their request while doing business, so just four days later, Ma Yuan learned that His Majesty the Emperor Guishan would receive him.

Putiay came with a group of businessmen to deliver the news that official officials would soon come to see him.

"So smooth?"

"As soon as the Emperor of the Guishan Kingdom heard that an official envoy from the Wei State had come to visit him, he was very happy and announced that he was going to receive you, and it was so smooth."

Thatch translated this passage and then added his own opinion: "It seems that both the Kushan Emperor and these merchants are quite short of money. ”

Ma Yuan had a plan in his heart.

Wouldn't that be the best?

They are short of money, they have the idea of doing business, and this business can be done.

So Ma Yuan began to ask himself about some etiquette and precautions for meeting Emperor Guishan.

It didn't take long for a Guishan official to really come over to meet Ma Yuan, and Ma Yuan changed into the official uniform of the Wei official, holding the talisman in his hand, and met with the official.

According to Thatch, this man was a high-ranking official, the kind of close official who was trusted by the Kushan Emperor.

Therefore, in order to show his attention, Ma Yuan put on the official uniform of Wei and put on the official hat, which was serious and serious.

When the official saw Ma Yuan's posture, he immediately felt that Ma Yuan's identity should not be ordinary, so he immediately stepped forward to talk to Ma Yuan with a smile.

Sachi also acts as a translator in which he conveys their meanings.

Ma Yuan learned some precautions that he needed to follow when he visited Emperor Guishan.

The official learned some news about the Wei state, as well as the instructions of the Wei emperor, including a jade pendant given to him by Ma Yuan.

"In the Wei State, the jade pendant was something that only officials and nobles were qualified to wear, and wearing it represented status and status."

Thatch relayed Ma Yuan's words to the official, and when he heard it, a brighter smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he accepted this crystal clear jade pendant and wore it directly on his body.

Then he was even more enthusiastic about Ma Yuan.

The two talked for a long time, and although they didn't understand each other's language, they were able to communicate very happily through Thatch's intermediate relay, talking to each other about what they wanted to know.

Ma Yuan learned that Emperor Guishan was going to receive him in three days, and he needed to make some preparations, such as a meeting gift to Emperor Guishan.

Although he is not an official envoy, since he is here, he is still an official, so he should naturally be treated as an envoy should be, and he should also do some things that an envoy should do.

Ma Yuan said that he understood that the gift would definitely make Emperor Guishan feel happy, and he would not lose face in the Wei Empire.

Three days later, Ma Yuan was received by the Kushan Emperor Vesudeva I.

And he was received by him with a very grand banquet and exquisite food, and one of the participants was said to be a figure with a face in the Kushan country.

There were not only emperors, but also nobles with real power and high-ranking officials with real power.

They are all powerful figures, and they have a very high status and power in Kushan.

Obviously, the Wei Empire, represented by Ma Yuan, was the only reason for them to come together, and they remembered the rich past because of Chinese goods.

According to the Kushan Emperor, about fifty or sixty years ago, during the great imperial era of the Kushan, the Kushan had a very close trade partnership with China.

At that time, Kushan took on a lot of Chinese goods and made a lot of money as a middleman to transport these goods to Rome.

It's a pity that later, such goods became less and less, and I heard that China had encountered civil strife, and at that time Guishan wanted to help, but Guishan also encountered internal strife, so it was a pity that he couldn't help.

Knowing that Guishan had been involved in the Western Regions in the Banchao era, Ma Yuan only smiled politely at Emperor Guishan's words, which was completely untrue.

Fortunately, there was also civil strife in Guishan at that time, otherwise, it would definitely attack the Western Regions!

God bless China.

Ma Yuan secretly rejoiced.

But right now, everyone is just gathering here to make money, be friendly with each other, and promote each other.

His Majesty the Emperor of Guishan said that he very much welcomed the caravans of the Wei Empire to do business in Guishan, and was willing to give them a part of the tariff reduction, and of course hoped to get feedback from the Wei Empire.

Ma Yuan said that he would go back and explain all these things to His Majesty the Emperor, and believed that His Majesty the Emperor would also agree to such a move, and was willing to cooperate with Guishan to reduce or reduce tariffs with each other, so as to promote the development of trade between the two sides and make money together.

Emperor Kushan was very happy.

The whole banquet seemed to be a harmonious atmosphere.

Many glamorous dancing girls wore revealing costumes to the palace to show their softness, and the dance of beauty and sensuality made Ma Yuan, who had not been close to women for a long time, have an inexplicable impulse.

It is believed that the same is true of the several deputies who attended the banquet with him.

His Excellency the Emperor of Guishan seemed to see the inexplicable impulse of Ma Yuan and the others, and chose to give them more than a dozen beautiful dancing girls after the banquet to help them soothe that inexplicable impulse.

Ma Yuan's heart refused, but his body still honestly disobeyed his inner decision.

It's a trifle, not worth mentioning.

There's another thing that's really worth mentioning.

After the banquet, the nobles and high-ranking officials who attended the banquet came to visit Ma Yuan, expressing their desire to learn more about the Wei Empire, and saying that they also wanted to send someone to go back with Ma Yuan.

They also wanted to send their own private business team to follow Ma Yuan to Wei to do business and make money.

Ma Yuan pondered for a while, and immediately showed a bright smile.

Yes, of course, no problem!

After they left satisfied, Ma Yuan realized that Emperor Guishan and his powerful factions did not seem to be so harmonious.

According to Ma Yuan's judgment, the crisis within the Kushan Empire, which was in an internal crisis at the same time as the Han Empire, did not disappear with the establishment of the Wei Empire.

Maybe such a dispute still exists, but it is not obvious, although he also has the title of emperor, but the gap between him and Guo is still relatively large.

So after the banquet ended, Ma Yuan found Putiai, who wanted to follow him to do business with the Wei Empire, and carefully asked him some questions within the Kushan Empire.
