"What, due to the shortage of raw materials for making 'fairy powder', the 'fairy powder' is out of stock, and it can't be sold to us for the time being?!" After reading this telegram, Anqing's little luck suddenly disappeared, and then, with blank eyes, sat on the chair.

Anqing knows very well that Dahan can't be short of "fairy powder" at all, and the reason why Dahan doesn't sell it to him is to give him some great taste.

In order to be the king and take his father's life, Anqing is also ruthless. Now that he saw that it was no longer possible, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind, "Made, isn't it just 'fairy powder', I don't believe it, that Commodus can quit, I can't quit Maad!" And that's good, I just took this opportunity to completely get rid of the clamp of the big man. ”

Thinking of this, Anqing politely said goodbye to Cao Cao and went back to the palace to get rid of drugs. And Liu Hong finished sending the telegram, and he was busy.

Now, Rome, Sabbath, and Kushan have almost all been taken. The follow-up work can begin. Not to mention anything else, the mercenaries in these places should be well settled, after all, in these places far away from the Han Dynasty, it is inconvenient for the imperial court to send troops, and these mercenaries have become the main army to maintain these places.

"Or I'll set up a mercenary union, it's like in the novel, posting tasks, handing over tasks, providing mercenary supplies, etc., all can be done here, and most importantly, it's easy to manage." Thinking of this, Liu Hong couldn't help but nod for a while, "I have sold a lot of muskets, and this bullet was the one that was sent out at that time." After all this time, those bullets have almost run out, and it is time to set up a bullet supply point for those mercenaries. And since they are all set up, I will simply make it a mercenary union, so that I can kill two birds with one stone. ”

It's not hard to set up a mercenary union. This is a matter of the imperial court, and it can be handed over to the Government Affairs Yuan, and there is no need for Liu Hong to work hard at that time. But the follow-up affairs in these places are not as simple as placing mercenaries. He also had to settle the merchants who then rushed to these places in large numbers to enslave the local people and plunder the local wealth. These people are different from mercenaries, they don't have a strong ability to protect themselves, and they are doing a very dangerous business, so they are placed. That's got to be done.

This resettlement matter is already troublesome enough. But that's not the most troublesome part. What makes Liu Hong most difficult is which white powder business. Liu Hong has already planned to popularize the white powder business in Rome, Guishan, and Anxi, but this thing is extremely dangerous, therefore. He had to make arrangements to prevent these things from flowing back into Dahan. poisoned the people of the Great Han.

These things are really hard to formulate. Liu Hong took great pains to formulate these precautionary decrees one by one and send them to the hands of those governors. Then, all kinds of supplies and so on were also loaded onto the airship. Ship to those places as quickly as possible.

Liu Hong was tossing here, and the people who were arranged by Cao Cao to go to Rome to negotiate also arrived in Rome. Because Liu Hong wants to try whether the white powder is still useful for Commodity, therefore. Cao Cao directly asked Liu Feng, who had previously managed Liu Hong's trading house in Rome, to be in charge of the negotiations.

Liu Feng can be regarded as Liu Hong's original team, he was the first batch of orphans adopted by Liu Hong, because of his outstanding ability and repeated meritorious achievements, he was promoted to the rank of small chief manager, managing the affairs of Rome. Originally, he was forced to withdraw from Rome, thinking that if he returned here, he was uncertain. But unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he was back, and he was given a new mission to negotiate with Rome.

"Commodus, just wait, this time you fall into my hands, I will never let you have a good time!"

Liu Feng hated Commodus so much, after all, this Commodus made him lose face in his friends. So, he made up his mind to get back face on Commodus.

Liu Feng came here, and the little ones can be regarded as relieved. After all, with someone to take over, not only have they already taken the credit, but they have also completely let go of their responsibilities. Therefore, as soon as they explained the matter to Liu Feng, they went out to visit the city of Rome.

Liu Feng had been in Rome for several years, and he had already visited all the places, so he might not have the leisure and leisure of the little ones, and he would directly start negotiating with Commodus.

To be honest, as soon as Commoder heard that it was Liu Feng who was negotiating with him this time, his heart beat a drum. This is not because he directly led people to do the matter of raiding the trading house, and he was afraid that Liu Feng would hate him, but that he was in Liu Feng's hands, and he never took advantage of it, and every time he saw Liu Feng, he would be bewitched by Liu Feng and spend a lot of money to buy a bunch of useless things from him.

"No, this guy Liu Feng is too difficult, I definitely can't meet him, so I'd better find someone to negotiate with him!" Thinking of this, Commodus sent Severus of the Senate.

"Made, Commodus is such a big shelf, he didn't even come to negotiate in person!" Seeing that it was Severus who came to negotiate, Liu Feng was directly angry, "Severus, you go back and tell Commodus that you are now a defeated country, don't put those stinky shelves on me." I'll give him half an hour now, and if he doesn't come to negotiate, then he will never come to this negotiation!" ”

Hearing Severus's words, Commodus was angry. After all, even if he is defeated, he is still an emperor, and his identity is 108,000 miles away from Liu Feng. Now that Liu Feng is calling him like this, he can't directly slaughter Liu Feng. But now the situation is stronger than people, he is not only defeated as simple, he and his ministers are still in the hands of the Han army, if he is not obedient, what will happen to him, it is really hard to say. Therefore, Commodus, who had no choice, could only go to Liu Feng to negotiate in person.

"Mr. Liu, I'm really embarrassed. I didn't mean to snub you, but the main thing is that my body is really uncomfortable in the past few days, so I let others come to the peace talks on my behalf. ”

"Oh, so Your Majesty is not feeling well? Is it the reason for the lack of 'fairy powder'? As he spoke, Liu Feng took out a cigar with white powder and gestured at Commodus, "How about it, before negotiating, does Your Majesty want to have one first?!" ”

People are the most afraid of temptation, and here, drug addicts are the most. Don't look at Commodus, now he has successfully endured the drug addiction, but that was when he didn't see the white powder, and now the white powder is in front of him, and people still take the initiative to give it to him, he can't help it anymore, he walks up in two steps, grabs the cigar and lights it.

Commodus took the cigar and smoked greedily, and Liu Feng was not in a hurry, looking at him with a smile, "Since white powder is so attractive to this guy, this negotiation must be much easier." ”

Since he hadn't smoked white powder for a long time, the fluttering energy that white powder brought to him this time was much more violent than usual. After a few puffs, Commodus leaned back into his chair with a look of intoxication.

"It's really a fairy-like treat, if possible, I really want to stay in this feeling for the rest of my life."

"Your Majesty, what's so difficult about this. As long as this peace negotiation goes smoothly and our firm reopens in Rome, you can easily buy 'fairy powder', and it is easy to stay in this feeling for the rest of your life! ”

Commodus was a faint gentleman in history, and now under the temptation of white powder, it is even more unprincipled, "You say, what conditions do you have, as long as the conditions are not too outrageous, for the sake of the face of 'fairy powder', I will agree." ”

"Actually, our conditions are really not very harsh." As he spoke, Liu Feng handed the conditions he had just written to Commodity.

"Ten times the things that have been confiscated will be returned, this can be done. The two countries traded freely, exempted the Han from taxes, granted the Han Chinese diplomatic immunity, ceded the docks and one of the seven hills in the city of Rome, and compensated 200 million silver coins. The Roman army hired Han Chinese as military advisers, and this was no problem. But this cession of Britain and the cession of the Suez Canal, I really can't be the master. After all, Britain and Egypt, although nominally vassal states of our Rome, but in reality, our Rome does not control them tightly, and I cannot guarantee that they will obey orders for things like this! ”

"We don't care about these things, as long as you complete the conditions. If they don't listen to orders, you can fight them until they do, it's not too difficult for you Romans! ”

"Manager Liu, you are completely difficult for a strong man. Do you see that in our current situation, can we attack these two places, and then hand over Britain and the Suez Canal to you big men? ”

"Yes, in your current situation, Your Majesty, it is really not suitable to send troops at that time. But this is also simple, as long as Your Majesty is willing to pay the price, we are willing to do it for you. As long as Your Majesty is willing to pay for it, whether it is our Han soldiers or our Han mercenaries, they are very willing to serve Your Majesty. ”

"I won't tell you anything, Manager Liu, even if you compensate you for the 200 million silver coins of the Han, we in Rome can't take it out, and I want to ask you to promise to give some grace, don't ask for money to hire your Han soldiers!"

"Your Majesty, do you know our big man. Our Han is a country of etiquette, quite benevolent, and not just recognizing money......"

"Oh, so Mr. Liu, do you agree to reduce or forgive us to pay compensation?!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor, I haven't finished talking here, what are you doing in such a hurry?!" Liu Feng was still a little unhappy about Commoder interrupting her, "I mean, we don't just recognize money, it's not impossible to use other valuables to settle accounts. And if you really don't have money at hand, we can also provide you with installment payments, or even give you a loan, but these things need to be discussed by us! (To be continued......)
