"Well, this silver ......" Lu Zixu thought for a moment and continued, "It's not a gift of silver, it's a loan!" ”

Well?

Loan?

As soon as these words came out, the court of Lu Guo couldn't help but make a noise.

This silver, used for lending? Do they want to go back even harder?

Lu Guogong's eyes widened, and only then did he suppress the noise of the courtiers, but between his faces, he was already blue.

Lu Guogong's voice was cold, and he said: "Come to the envoy, if you want to come to Lu Guo to lend money, but you chose the wrong country!" There is no shortage of big countries around Lu, if you want to borrow, why do you need to find a sea country? ”

Lu Zixu was not annoyed: "If Lu Guo borrows money from Haiguo, unlike other countries, Lu Guo can get the opportunity to cooperate with Haiguo." ”

As soon as Lu Zixu said this, the courtiers of Lu State couldn't help but turn from anger to laughter.

What the hell?

Let the dignified country get the opportunity to cooperate with the sea country?

Who does this sea nation think it is?

He came to scold our Lu country, but he was not qualified, how could he be ashamed to speak up and use the cooperation between the sea country and the Lu country as a bargaining chip?

Lu Guogong also smiled, and the iron blue on his face gradually faded a little.

originally thought that Haiguo wanted to pretend to insult Lu Guo, but it turned out that the minister of Haiguo couldn't even pretend to be forced to say such unintelligent words......

Lu Zixu smiled, didn't argue much, just took out a pack of white crystals from his arms and handed it to Lu Guogong.

Lu Guogong was stunned for a moment, and even asked, "What is this?" ”

Lu Zixu bowed and said: "This is a special product of the Sea Kingdom, called salt, which is a condiment for ingredients. If Lu is willing to cooperate with Haiguo, then Haiguo can sell salt to Lu at a lower price, and if Lu sells it to the Central Plains countries for the second time, the profit may be difficult to measure......"

Lu Guogong was a little unconvinced: "Just this white crystal, it doesn't look like food, and few people have never heard of it." Does it work wonders? ”

Lu Zixu didn't answer, but just asked the waiter in King Lu's palace to bring a bowl of ordinary food and let Lu Guogong taste it first.

Because it was not a meal, Lu Guogong had no appetite, and only tasted a small bite.

Lu Zixu took another step forward, poured in a little salt, stirred evenly, and presented it to Lu Guogong.

Lu Guogong snorted coldly, took another point and put it in his mouth...... But suddenly I found that there was a difference!

Those meals are no longer like empty ingredients, as if they have a soul, so that the meals are moisturized!

Delicious!

Back then, in Zhou Tianzi's Luoyi, I had never eaten such a delicious thing!

The point is that the ingredients of the meals have not changed, just salt has been added!

It seems that this white crystal really has an effect that ordinary people can hardly predict!

Lu Guogong's eyes lit up, his hands didn't stop, and it didn't take long to clean up the food in front of him.

After eating, he still didn't seem satisfied, and he burped unsatisfied.

The courtiers of the Lu State looked at each other.

How did his own monarch suddenly become like a pig......

Lu Guogong's case was amazing.

"Wonderful, I didn't expect that there would be such a specialty in the sea country!"

"The widow has made up his mind to accept the loan from the sea country!"

"As long as Haiguo is willing to sell us salt at a low price and does not rob us of our business in the Central Plains, the 500,000 taels of silver will be repaid by the widow, and the widow will be willing to return 1 million taels when the time comes!"

"And Lu is willing to make friends with Haiguo, accept Haiguo's proposal, and temporarily withdraw troops to Qi State!"

The courtiers of the Lu State were confused.

That's all you can say?

Or double the repayment?

Could it be that this is the legend that if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab a man's stomach?

Oh, dog man......

But the ministers of the Lu State suddenly found that it seemed disrespectful to their monarch to say this, and hurriedly swallowed this idea in their stomachs......

Lu Guogong licked his lips, a little unsatisfied, but his expression was serious: "Come on, there is still a condition for the widow, I don't know what you think?" ”

The courtiers of the Lu State nodded secretly.

It seems that their monarch is still excellent, and it is impossible to be impressed by a little salt!

No, after promising benefits to the sea state, didn't this start to add other conditions immediately afterward?

Lu Zixu bowed down and replied: "Lu Guogong said that it doesn't matter. ”

Lu Guogong nodded and said: "The conditions just now, the widow will give it to you, but this bag of salt in your hand, can you leave it for the widow, and use it as a gift?" ”

Lu courtiers: ......

No, after a long time of trouble, the monarch of his own country still looks like a pig?

Talking about this condition, is to ask Lu Zixu to send him a bag of salt?

National affairs, just use a bag of salt to do this?

The courtiers of the Lu State were all putting a question mark in their hearts.

When the monarch talks about this, Lu Zixu still has to die of happiness? How can there be a bag of salt for such a good condition?

I'm afraid that Lu Zixu will agree to come down at once!

"No, no, don't talk nonsense!" Lu Zixu looked at Lu Guogong, denied it three times, and was categorical.

What's the trouble?

This salt was originally brought by Lu Zixu himself to eat on the road, but it was only to show it to Lu Guogong, so he took it out for Lu Guogong to taste.

Lu Zixu was very puzzled. No, I'm here to talk about cooperation with you, and you're just greedy for my salt?

I'm going to eat for you!

This salt, there is no more when I go out of the sea country, I brought such a bag on this mission, I won't give this to you!

Even if the other party is Lu Guogong, it can't be!

The courtiers of the Lu State were dumbfounded again.

it, what is this operation?

Hundreds of thousands of millions of taels of silver, the cooperation between the two countries, the talks were negotiated, but in the end, because a bag of salt can still cause disagreements?

I thought that it was enough for my monarch to ask for only a bag of salt, but in the end, what was even more nonsense was that the other party refused to give it?

It's been a long time......

Lu Guogong looked at the categorical Lu Zixu, and sighed slowly: "Alas, after all, it is a widow who does not have this blessing...... How can you live without salt in the future? ”

The courtiers of the Lu State looked at each other.

The air was so quiet that even a pin could be heard clearly when it dropped on the ground.

But suddenly, I don't know where it was, and there was a sound of swallowing saliva.

……

Wang Guo has a bit of a headache today.

Because Prime Minister Shang Yang recommended a doorman to him, Lin is not as good.

Shang Yang made a package ticket, saying that this person was talented, but he could be reused, and he should live above the temple.

The problem is that Wang Guo also knows that this thing is talented......

And it may be clearer than Shang Yang himself knows......

What's going on?

Don't appoint it, I know that there is such a person, if I let it go and don't monitor it under my nose, I can't figure out where I can backstab myself.

Appoint it, like Lin is not as good as this kind of coffee position, I'm afraid that I can use it to play with myself......

Hey, how can there be so many big guys in such a small sea country......

Blue skinny, shiitake mushrooms.

"The widow knows that Lin is not as good. If there is a major event in the near future, it is natural to entrust Lin with important tasks. The prime minister told him that he could wait for the appointment of the widow with peace of mind. ”
