Chapter 170 Guan Chong’s mouth has never let you down
The next day.
The Daxia envoys all got up early.
Today we will discuss the disputes that were resolved at this monthly meeting.
After breakfast, at the invitation of the people of Da Zhou.
The fourth prince and a group of envoys went to the council hall.
Originally, Xie Xunfeng didn't want to go, but he couldn't resist their invitation.
He naturally understood the reason.
The purpose is to make Xie Xunfeng break off completely with the people of Da Zhou.
Because Xiao Yiran was a princess, she could not participate in such meetings, so she rested in the palace that hosted them.
I chatted with Xie Xunfeng last night, and we went back to sleep at daybreak.
Xiao Yiran also took a good nap.
Xie Xunfeng asked Shi Yan and Jing Fei to guard here.
With Shi Yan around, there won't be any problems.
…
Arrived at the council hall.
Naturally, there were quite a few people sent by the Great Zhou, and the leader was Xie Yiren.
And Beiliang is naturally Meng Ao.
Meng Ao's face did not look good at this moment, and it was obvious that his body was drained by women.
The three parties sat in a circle in the hall.
Meng Ao said to Xie Xunfeng provocatively, "Xie Fool... Xie Fool... I say you are foolish, and you really are foolish... Do you know what this is for? Do you think you are here to have a feast like last night? This is for discussion, to discuss disputes between countries... to fight for the interests of all countries! As a Da Zhou, how can you help Da Xia people... Aren't you a complete traitor?"
Xie Xunfeng did not reply, with a faint silly smile on his face all the time.
He knew very well that as long as Guan Chong was around, there would be no need for him to speak.
When it comes to talking, Guan Chong has never disappointed anyone...
"Eat at a banquet? Eat at your eldest brother's banquet? What happened last night was called a dinner party! You are a bumpkin from Beiliang, you can't even speak clearly! And you come to discuss matters? Our two countries call it a discussion, and what are you doing here to make do? Besides, how can my eldest brother be a traitor? My eldest brother is the messenger of peace between the two countries, you know nothing! But you, what are you here to discuss? No matter what you discuss, we will not listen to you..."
"If we have any dispute with you, we will just beat you up! When we beat you up, you just stand at attention and call me daddy, that's all! You're just shutting up. Do you have a right to speak?"
“You…you…”
"What are you talking about? You haven't even farted for a long time. Just shut your stinky mouth. If you don't know how to speak, don't speak! Don't you know that you will be beaten if you say the wrong thing? Let me tell you, we in Daxia have long wanted to beat up you Beiliang guys who are ready to run away..."
"Crown Prince...Your Highness..."
"What? Since you can't beat me, you go find your dad! You little tadpole...your dad is here..." Guan Chong didn't give Meng Ao a chance to speak.
Meng Ao was the one being criticized by Guan Chong and could only worry.
Seeing this, Xie Yiren lowered his voice and said, "Prince Guan, please stop for a moment... We are discussing matters. Let's get back to the point."
Guan Chong bowed to Xie Yiren and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry. This fellow from Beiliang was just talking nonsense... Just tell me. Can my eldest brother make some contribution to the peace between the two countries? He kept calling me a traitor. It's obvious that he is trying to stir up trouble... to disrupt the good relations between our two countries... Don't you agree?"
Xie Yiren smiled calmly, and then said, "Let's get back to the point. As the host country of the Yuedan Club, our Great Zhou naturally has the sincerity of the Great Zhou! The twelve cities on the border that we have offered have been the inherent territory of our Great Zhou since ancient times. Later, due to the war, they were forcibly occupied by you until now. We have negotiated several times before. Although you admit that it is our territory, you really won't return it... Now, we want you, the Great Xia, to take out these twelve cities as the prize for the Yuedan Club competition! If you win, we don't want them... If, we win... you hand them over."
During this phase of the meeting, each country is actually asking for a reward from the other country.
A country proposed.
The other two countries must accept it.
Then the other two countries can also ask each other for a bonus.
After hearing what Xie Yiren said, Yan Song couldn't help but smile and said, " Your Highness, you really have a good plan... These twelve border cities are the compensation you paid to us after the Great Zhou was defeated. Although the territory belongs to you, we have the management rights of the twelve border cities for a hundred years. You are asking for too much. That's twelve whole cities! If you lose, there is nothing to lose, it's nothing more than the ownership rights after a hundred years... Who knows, what will the situation be like after a hundred years?"
Xie Yiren smiled calmly and said, "So, what we have is the ownership of these twelve border cities... This does not belong to your Great Xia. You must return it after a hundred years... So, these twelve cities are not yours. So, what we want is not too much... Besides, how do you know that you will definitely lose?"
Yan Song smiled faintly, and then said, "Then Your Highness, why don't you listen to what we want first. If you agree... we will naturally agree as well."
Xie Yiren said to Yan Song, "Master Yan... why don't you tell me first..."
Yan Song smiled faintly, and then said, "What we want is very simple, that is to cancel the tariffs on our three countries' trade. If we lose, we will cancel the tariffs on you. If you lose, you will cancel the tariffs on us. For a period of five years!"
After Xie Yiren heard what Yan Song said, he couldn't help but show a puzzled expression on his face and said, "That's it?"
Yan Song smiled slightly, then nodded and said, "Yes, that's it..."
This request was made by Xie Xunfeng, and Yan Song and others were very clear about it.
Several major events have happened in Daxia recently.
That is, you can refine fine salt and make white sugar.
These things are in short supply. If they are sold well, a lot of tariffs will be collected in a year.
But at this point, this is still a secret.
So they don't know.
In the eyes of the people of Da Zhou, the income from Da Xia's commerce is negligible for Da Xia.
Moreover, due to years of war, the Great Xia Kingdom did not have very good goods to export.
Therefore, although the two countries traded, Daxia collected higher tariffs from Dazhou.
However, the customs duties received by Da Zhou from Da Xia were very few...
No matter how Xie Yiren thought about it, this matter was beneficial to him.
Seeing that Xie Yiren didn't speak, Yan Song said, "As long as you agree! I will agree to the matter of the twelve cities..."
Although Xie Yiren felt that this was a trap, he was facing twelve cities.
As long as Yuedan wins, these twelve cities, plus the tax revenue, will make Da Zhou a huge profit just from this issue.
