Constans II decided that the negotiations would be worth the cost, if any, as long as he could get Riches to help them attack the Arabs.

He got out of the carriage, there was no longer any fear in his heart, and he only wanted to win over Li Zhi for his own use.

When he passed through the city gate just now, he paid special attention to some of the city gates that were so solid that they were actually covered with dense pits, and many places were directly penetrated, and the power of this weapon was not known to be many times stronger than the bow and arrow, anyway, the arrows fired by the most powerful bow and crossbow he had ever seen could not leave any traces on the city gate.

Now he looked at Li Zhi's team up close, and only saw the strange pipes, but he couldn't understand how these pipes were so powerful.

"Hello, I'm the Byzantine Emperor Constans II, I don't know what your Excellency is called?"

Li Zhi looked at the legendary bucket emperor, and didn't see how he had such a deep fate with the bucket, he said with a smile: "I am Li Zhi, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, I guess Your Majesty is very puzzled why I suddenly appeared outside Constantinople, right?" ”

There was a look of surprise on the face of Constans II, and Li Zhi's smooth Greek was simply better than what he, a native of Byzantium, could speak.

"You speak Greek so well, it's even better than I speak."

Li Zhi smiled modestly: "It's nothing, in addition to Chinese, I am also proficient in more than a dozen foreign languages." ”

"Is this true? You look about my age, how can you have so many things? ”

Constans II felt like a child in front of Li Zhi, and he felt ashamed of himself.

"Hehe, I started learning foreign languages when I was three years old."

There is nothing wrong with Li Zhi's words, and when he is three years old, he can use the machines in the tech factory to master various languages.

Constans II exclaimed, "What a genius you are. ”

Li Zhi smiled reservedly, and his expression became serious: "This time I broke through the gates of your Constantinople, and the cause of this incident started from the last time I entered your Constantinople••••••"

Under the description of Li Zhi's language, a picture emerged in the mind of Constans II, how Li Zhi was bullied by five nobles, and even the dignified mayor stood on the opposite side of Li Zhi, and finally how he fled from Constantinople in a hurry.

According to this picture, the five nobles are simply synonymous with darkness, and Li Zhi is now just fighting against darkness.

Constans II was eager to skin these five bastards and the mayor for a twitch, and look at what they had done to bring such powerful enemies to the Empire, and now he had to pay for their stupidity.

He said with a look of shame: "It's all because I have no way to govern the country, so that you, the Tang Dynasty, have been treated unfairly in my Byzantium, and I, as the emperor of the empire, have the obligation to compensate you, I don't know what I can do to make up for your spiritual losses?" ”

The term mental loss Constans II can be said to be a living study, just now he heard Li Zhi mention this term many times, so he also quoted it directly, so Li Zhi had to praise him for his learning ability.

People cooperate with themselves so much, which makes Li Zhi, who has always been shy, not know how to open his mouth.

But when I think that I am doing this to be angry with my own woman, it is not a big deal to be a cheeky person for my own woman.

"Ahem, I'm a big man naturally hasn't suffered any psychological trauma, but women, you know, how soft their hearts are, a little thing can make them frightened, as their man, should I give them a head?"

These words made Constans II nod his head, he couldn't help but think of his beloved concubine, if she was wronged, he would definitely get justice for her, at this point he completely agreed with Li Zhi's statement, he felt that he had met a fellow person this time.

If it weren't for this bullshit, he wouldn't have to go out of the city in fear, how difficult it was for the people of the empire, this was simply disregarding his own safety, thinking only about the safety of thousands of people, at this moment he felt that he could be comparable to any great emperor in history.

"Your Majesty and I hit it off at first sight, so I can't go too far, otherwise I'm sorry for the fate between you and me."

"In this case, you Byzantine Empire will compensate each of my six women for 200,000 taels of gold."

This price made Miuka behind Constans II feel like blackmail, isn't it that those five guys tried to tease your woman and didn't succeed in molesting, you actually asked for 1.2 million taels of gold in one mouth, why don't you grab it, but thinking of the appearance of the city gate being gently pushed down, he didn't dare to squeak.

Although a million taels of gold is a lot, it is not so important compared to the safety of the empire.

Constans II agreed to Li Zhi's conditions with little hesitation, not that he was not distressed, but he didn't think about paying this amount of money himself, but wanted to let the five families who provoked Li Zhi, oh, and the mayor's family compensate, if they couldn't come up with the money, then he could only exile all these six damn families.

There was no tension in this negotiation, and the two men, like the noblest gentlemen, ended the alliance in a cordial and friendly conversation.

Compared with the jade negotiation, Constans II was more concerned about the black pipes carried by the soldiers behind Li Zhi.

Seeing that Constans II's eyes frequently fell on the machine guns on the soldiers, Li Zhi motioned to one of the soldiers to hand over the machine gun in his hand, and he personally rehearsed for him in front of Constans II how the machine gun was powerful, and a boulder in the distance sacrificed his precious body and drifted away as a debris in the wind.

"How's this weapon?" Li Zhi smiled and looked at Constans II.

Constans II was speechless for a long time in shock, and after the shock, he looked at Li Zhi with excitement and said: "How much is this weapon of yours, I am willing to buy a batch of weapons from you at a high price to teach that damned Arab a lesson." ”

What a grudge against the Arabs, the first thought is to deal with the Arabs.

But if you think about it, it's normal, in the process of the continuous rise of the Arab Empire, there are two countries that are most threatened, one is naturally the Byzantine Empire, and the other is the Sassanid Empire, compared with the Sassanid Empire, the Byzantine Empire is still relatively lucky, at least not completely wiped out by the Arab Empire.

In the second year after Constans II became emperor, the Arabs completely occupied Egypt, so that the Byzantines completely lost Alexander, and the caliph of the Arab Empire became the master of Alexander, and the whole of Egypt fell into the arms of the Arabs, which made Constans feel like he had lost his beloved.
