Moreover, he called Ji Chang and asked him to arrange two hundred guards for the four Holy Hand Butchers to dig tunnels in shifts, which was also the intention of monitoring these four people.

"My lord, everyone has been arranged, just waiting for your order." Ji Chang said with a smile.

"Everything is ready?"

"It's ready, the things listed on the list by these four masters are the same, and double copies are prepared."

"That's good, starting tomorrow, you personally lead people to guard this tent, and no one is allowed to approach, otherwise there will be no mercy." Besides.

"Yes."

The tunnel was dug from the tent where the four of them lived, and they were not stupid, of course they would not be allowed to dig from their own Chinese army tent, not to mention in case there were guests visiting, in case the matter was revealed, this was a typical "tunnel" diplomatic incident, and he had to leave a step for himself.

If the matter is discovered by the king of Alta, no matter what he says, he will not be able to get rid of suspicion, but as long as he does not start digging from his Chinese army tent, he can have a statement to cover his face. As long as there is no substantial damage to the Tatar court, I believe that the king of Altan will not bite it to death.

On the first day of the negotiations, they fell into a stalemate, and the content of the negotiations on this day was the most relaxed, mainly the exchange of grain and salt from the interior with animal skins and wool from outside the country.

On the side of the imperial court, the officials of Taifu Temple presided over the negotiation, and he demanded that they not be exchanged for wool and animal skins, but for military horses.

Of course the king of Alta refused, not to mention the military horses, even ordinary horses were also used to exchange silk, tea, porcelain and other bulk items, grain, cloth and silk should also be exchanged for wool and animal skins, both sides are big road goods.

Of course, the king of Alta played a trick, that is, he stuffed the salt into it, not to mention the salt outside the plug, but also in the interior of the strictly controlled items, as long as you have the money to buy silk, there is a quota for salt.

Moreover, they just sat and listened, and did not express their opinions, and the three khans did not speak, and the officials below them mainly negotiated with the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

This is also beneficial, because once the negotiations are really deadlocked and they can't move on to the next item, they can start a dialogue directly, advance and retreat, and negotiate things cleanly.

But now the four of them are not in a hurry, especially King Sully and King Tuquitan are even more fine, smiling and watching these people arguing and slapping the table, which are all essential movements in the negotiation process, and both sides have acting elements in it.

"I said, son-in-law, do you really have such a big demand for wool and hides?" King Sully asked quietly.

"There are still many uses for the imperial court." Besides, he nodded in acknowledgement.

Wool and animal skins are not only civilian, but also have too many military uses, armor, cotton clothes and even bows and arrows are indispensable to use animal skins and wool, and there are a large number of animal skins produced in the interior every year, but they are simply not enough, not to mention the huge consumer market of the people.

"Give me 10,000 iron pots every year, and I will cover all the wool and animal skins you need." King Sully chuckled.

"Haha, what are you muttering? Is there anything that can't be put on the negotiating table and has to be talked about sneakily below? Although the king of Alta is also an old man, he is deaf and clear-sighted, and he hears the voices of the two of them.

"I'm having a good time with my virtuous son-in-law, Lala, it's not a negotiation, it's not a foul, is it?" King Sully was right.

"Yes, I'll also talk to the virtuous son-in-law, let them talk about business first, and let's just talk about the shortcomings of the parents." King Tukitan smiled and joined in.

I replied that the king wanted to scold people angrily, this trick was originally thought up by him, but it was preempted by these two old bastards, although there is still no eight characters, but this person is called by a virtuous son-in-law, he can't help it.

"His Royal Highness Qincha is not just your son-in-law, let me tell you, our Great Khan has also written to the Ming court, asking for a marriage and marrying a princess of my family to His Royal Highness Qincha, so that His Royal Highness Qincha is also the son-in-law of our Tatar tribe." At this time, a famous king of the Tatar tribe said with a smile.

"I said that you are not ashamed of the old thing, robbing your son-in-law with us." King Sully breathed.

"What do you mean by robbery, you can marry the princess to His Royal Highness Qincha, and we can't do it?" The Tatar king snorted coldly.

This thing is still true, and the king of Alta really sent a letter of state to Emperor Longqing, asking for marriage, that is, to marry one of his daughters.

Of course, he didn't expect the Ming court to approve this marriage, mainly because he wanted to disgust King Sully and King Tuquitan, anyway, there was no loss in the last letter of state.

This trick was given by Zhao Quan, and the king of Da now regrets it, he knew that when the third lady passed, she should have asked her to bring a princess over, and she should take it down first.

If he is now their son-in-law, then it is easy to say anything and talk about everything.

Besides, he took a deep breath and went out to get some air, he really didn't want to talk to a few old rascals and virtuous sons-in-law, it was really boring, and a little obscene.

"What's wrong? Is it over or is it over? The Jade Princess was waiting outside, and when she saw him come out, she greeted him.

"Big brother, why did you come out." Yu Du also came up to curry favor.

"I'm out to breathe, they're talking inside, and there's nothing to do with me for the time being." Besides, he laughed.

"That is, if the eldest brother speaks, there will be nothing for them, and the eldest brother will have to give others a chance to speak, right?" Yu is very understanding.

"You know what, go aside." The Jade Princess thought he was in the way here, so she bombarded him.

"I don't understand anything, at least I know more than you girl, right?" Yu Du was greatly unconvinced.

"You dare to call me a?" The jade princess became popular, she is the noble princess of Warat, not a girl.

"You're not a girl or a man, how can this be scolding."

"Yes, yes, you all stop there, I just can't stand listening to them inside, and I want to be quiet for a while." Besides, he hurriedly waved his hand.

As soon as he said this, the two men all shut up, just glared at each other.

At this time, the Seventh Princess, Sa Thorn and King Tushun also came to talk, and they were all waiting outside, mainly waiting.

Since the rumors of the past two days that someone wants to be bad for the situation, these people are all concerned, and as long as the situation comes out, they will come to the side to protect him.

Besides, he was also very moved, but he didn't expect these people to be so narrow, in addition to being kind to him, he didn't have any deep affection for others.

None of these people could enter the negotiation site, so they had to set up tents outside and wait.

"Here, have a drink." King Tushun handed over a flask.

Besides, I took a big sip of it, it was a burning knife from the grassland, a very strong kind.

"Why didn't Her Royal Highness the Third Lady Princess come?" Besides, after looking for a while, I didn't find the third lady.

"She refused to come, saying that she was disgusted with the trouble here, and she wanted to prepare supplies for the coming year at home." King Tushun said with a smile.

Besides, it immediately understood that the third lady didn't want to meet the saint here, in fact, the saint didn't come over, only Zhao Quan brought some elders to participate in the negotiations.

Besides, I don't want the third lady to be so stiff with the saint for him, after all, the status of the saint is there, and being too stiff with the saint is not good for the future of the third lady.

The third lady didn't come herself, but King Tushun begged for her, she wanted her father to protect the situation.

"I said, big brother, what are you talking about inside, and there is no result after talking about it for so long?" Yu Du asked.

"Our side asked to exchange military horses for grain, cloth, and salt, and your side wanted to exchange wool and animal skins, so it was stuck here." Besides, he laughed.

Although the content and process of the negotiations should be kept secret, these people are not ordinary people, as long as the people inside come out, they can know everything, and no matter how confidential things are, it is impossible for them to keep them secret, so they simply say it directly.

"What's there to fight about, military horses have the price of military horses, wool has the price of wool, grain, cloth, silk and salt are the same, everyone will convert it into silver according to the price, and then exchange the amount of silver with each other." Yu Du slapped his thigh and said.

"As far as you're smart, those people don't know how to exchange it for silver? It's clear that this can't be done. "The Seventh Princess Qi Dao.

"What's wrong with this, who doesn't like silver?" Yu Du said with a smile.

In fact, if the king of Alta really wants to buy it with silver, there is no need to talk about it for so long, but although the various tribes outside the Seychelles have a lot of silver, but there are more in kind, as long as they can be exchanged in kind, they don't want to use silver, after all, silver is much less than wool and animal skins, and it is difficult to get it once it is spent.

Most of the gold and silver of the various ethnic groups were still saved in their heyday, and they have been saved for many generations, and they have been looted in previous wars, unlike wool and animal skins, which can get a large number of goods every year.

"It's not difficult to convert into silver, but neither side wants to do this, after all, they both want to exchange for what they want the most at the lowest price." Besides, he laughed.

"But it can be negotiated anyway, right?" King Tushun said with some concern.

"This item will definitely be negotiated, that is, everyone will grind slowly on the price for a while, and we can always find a way that is acceptable to both parties." Besides.

"That's good." King Tushun let out a sigh of relief.

Although he did not participate in this offensive against the Ming Dynasty, and his clan did not participate, but he still felt uncomfortable when he thought of how many excellent soldiers the Tatars would die in a big war.

"Don't be too optimistic, it's just the easiest negotiation now." Besides.

"It's easiest to talk like this, so if it's more difficult, wouldn't it be a year?" Yu Du was shocked.

"I don't need it for a year, but it's normal to talk about ten days and eight days." Besides.

"His Royal Highness Qincha should think of speeding up the progress, time is running out." King Tushun reminded him with a long meaning.

Besides, he nodded, and understood what King Tushun meant, and the day of King Alta's attack was approaching.
