Chapter 556: Commerce

This is how the first day of negotiations passed.

originally wanted to give Li Yu a dismissal, but he was rectified by Li Yu instead.

Early the next morning, the people of Liang and Qi hurriedly came to the Yongde Palace.

"Lord Wang, please go to the post house to discuss the affairs of the Three Kingdoms."

Li Yu looked at the people of Liang and Qi, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Your prince has time today?" ”

"Yes, of course there is time."

Li Yu nodded, "Since you have time, then it's good, let's go." ”

Saying that, Li Yu took the majestic sea and them to the post house.

And this time, as soon as they walked to the post house, Liang Xiong and Qi Jianshen were already waiting in the living room, of course, just waiting, and did not come out.

They are the envoys of the Liang State and the Qi State, there is no need to cater too much to Li Yu, Li Yu has no opinion on this, and after coming to the living room, he smiled, "Are you both there?" ”

Both of them rolled their eyes, both a little angry.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's talk about it quickly." Qi Jianshen frowned slightly, a little impatient.

Li Yu didn't want to waste time with them, so after sitting down like this, they began to discuss, of course, when negotiating, Li Yu was slightly biased towards Qi Jianshen, which made Qi Jianshen secretly happy in his heart and felt that this trip had made a contribution.

On Liang Xiong's side, Li Yu didn't let him suffer too much, but relatively speaking, he didn't get as many benefits as Qi Jianshen.

After most of this discussion, it was past noon, but there were still a few issues that had not been discussed.

"Well, after lunch, let's continue, how about we?"

Liang Xiong, as a military general, was already hungry, and when he heard Li Yu's words, he naturally agreed, and Qi Jianshen pursed his lips, but he did not object.

After saying this, Li Yu ordered someone to cook, and the cook was brought by him from King Yongde, and it didn't take long for a few small stir-fried foods plus steamed buns or something to be served.

Liang Xiong and Qi Jianshen had never seen these dishes before, so they couldn't help but be a little curious.

"What kind of dish is this?"

"These are all stir-fried dishes from our Tang Kingdom, don't be polite, you two, eat them."

Liang Xiong picked up the chopsticks and took a piece of back to the pot meat, and after eating it in his mouth, the spicy taste made him want to scream, and then eat a bite of steamed buns, which made people feel that it was delicious in the world.

After taking a bite like this, Liang Xiong suddenly couldn't help it, so he didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly tasted other dishes.

Other dishes, one is better than the other, although he is a prince, but at this time he is also excited a little regardless of the image.

Qi Jianshen couldn't help but snort lightly when he saw that Liang Xiong was a dignified king of Liang Guoxi, but he still couldn't help but pick up the chopsticks and take a bite.

After eating this bite, he suddenly understood a little why Liang Xiong was like this.

It was a feast, better than anything he had ever eaten in the first half of his life.

Qi Jianshen didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly ate it.

A few small stir-fries, it didn't take long for the two of them to eat clean, that's it, they are still a little unsatisfied, but now in this situation, they can't open their mouths to ask for it again, so they can only stop there.

After the meal was served, Li Yu continued, "Just now we talked about the matter of trade, what do I mean, the trade of our three countries has a thousand merits, and the exchange is beneficial and harmless for our three countries, so I think at the junction of the Tang Kingdom and your two countries, there are some trade bazaars for relics, what do you think?" ”

Hearing Li Yu's words, Liang Xiong and Qi Jianshen both immediately frowned.

"Why don't you set up a trade bazaar in my Liang country?"

"Why don't you set up a trade fair in my Qi country?"

The two are-for-tat, but in fact, they have a purpose.

If a trade bazaar is set up in the Liang State, then the Qi State must cross the Tang State if it wants to trade, so that the Qi State and the Tang State will have a relatively long contact, and if the two countries are in contact like this, there will be some contradictions between the layers of checkpoints, for example, when the merchants of the Qi State pass through some checkpoints of the Tang State, they need to pay some taxes, so over time, the merchants of the Qi State must not like it.

But they don't have to worry about it.

In the same way, Qi Jianshen of Qi Country also thinks so.

Both of them wanted to drive a wedge between Tang Guo and each other.

It's just that the plan of the two is too simple, can Li Yu see it?

"This king originally just thought that in my Tang country, it would be compared, since both of them think that it is okay to open a trade market in their own country, it is completely okay, in the place where our Tang country and you are handed over, you come to open up a market, and the merchants of our Tang country go to your country to trade, this is exactly the same."

After Li Yu said this, Liang Xiong and Qi Jianshen were stunned.

Since it is a handover, then in the Tang State, or the Liang State and the Qi State are the same, if the Liang State has a market, and the Qi State also has a market, then why should the merchants of the Qi State come to the Liang State?

They only need to sell their goods to the merchants of the Tang Kingdom, so that the merchants of the Tang Kingdom can't run?

In this way, the merchants of the Tang Kingdom ran back and forth in the middle, making the difference back and forth, but the result was to fatten the merchants of the Tang Kingdom.

Their purpose is to be established only if there is only one market.

But these people can't say this, because it's too naΓ―ve, obviously two markets are more convenient, why do you want to get one, and get one, whether it's Liang or Qi, they won't agree, right?

The two men glanced at each other.

"Let's set up the bazaar in the Tang Kingdom." After a trade bazaar is set up, it is very expensive, and it also needs to arrange people to manage, and a little carelessness may cause contradictions between the two countries, so whoever owns the trade bazaar will have to bear the responsibility.

Therefore, after the goal was not achieved, they felt that it was better to set the trade bazaar in the Tang Kingdom.

Li Yu smiled lightly, "Since this is the case, then let's settle it like this." ”

Li Yu is naturally clear about the responsibility of opening a trade market, but if the trade market is opened in their Tang Kingdom, first of all, it can ensure the safety of their Tang State merchants, and secondly, the merchants of their Tang Kingdom can get more favorable conditions and have more opportunities to make money.

Of course, the most important thing is that if the Tang Kingdom opens a trade bazaar, it will definitely be able to drive the economic development of that place, although there are certain risks, but the benefits are also rare.

In this way, Li Yu discussed with Liang Xiong and Qi Jianshen, and around dusk, they basically discussed the things that should be discussed.

In fact, what everyone is doing is nothing more than interests, as long as Li Yu balances his interests, it is not difficult to talk successfully.

And the premise is that Li Yu didn't think about who to trap.
