Chapter 201 Negotiations

On June 3, the 32nd year of the reign of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, His Excellency Lin Quansuke, our Japanese minister, finally recovered from his "illness" and had time to negotiate.

During the period when Lin Quanzhu was "sick", Deng Jichun's supplementary standard was also expanded, and the number of soldiers was increased to 10,000, but the current Wang Bin didn't know about it, because there was a Japanese sitting in front of Wang Bin.

"Your Excellency, how are you doing these past few days?"

"Your Excellency the Governor is concerned, and after two days of cultivation, it is indeed much better."

As soon as Lin Quanzhu's words came out, Wang Bin pursed his lips in his heart, labor and management have been tired and tired in the past few days about the issue of arms, you old guy is good to use the excuse of not adapting to the water and soil, drank three days of flower wine, and is not afraid of drinking his kidneys, although Wang Bin thought so in his heart, but he still said in his mouth.

"Your Excellency the Minister doesn't have to be like this, if you haven't cultivated well, the negotiations between us can still be postponed for a few more days."

As soon as Wang Bin's words came out, Lin Quanzhu even thought in his heart, should he follow Wang Bin's words that his body is not yet well, and then delay it for two or three days, anyway, the purpose set by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for himself is to delay as much as possible.

Besides, in the past few days in Jinzhou, my small life is really comfortable.

But just when Lin Quanzhu looked up and saw Wang Bin's smile on his face, he suddenly thought: This can't be a deliberate test of himself, right?

Yes, you must be here to test yourself! If he follows this Wang Bin's words, he will be revealing his stuff, who has ever seen that when the negotiations began to be two or three days late, this Wang Bin must be testing whether the empire wants to negotiate or not.

Once he agrees, this Wang Bin may doubt the authenticity of this negotiation, and he must refuse.

Wang Bin didn't know that his words made Lin Quanzhu have so many thoughts, if Wang Bin had mind reading skills and could know what Lin Quanzhu was thinking at the moment, he would definitely cry out for wrongdoing.

I just said this to Lin Quanzhu with the idea of delaying for a few more days, anyway, I also wanted to delay for a few more days, but I didn't expect you Lin Quanzhu to arrange me, the governor of the three eastern provinces, like this.

"Your Excellency the Governor said with a smile, I have been here for the mission of the Empire, and I can't waste my time here to serve the Empire, even if I feel unwell."

For Lin Quanzhu's words, Wang Bin was surprised at this time, this is different from what is written in the script, obviously it should be you Lin Quanzhu who followed my words and said that it was still the governor or something, and then you and I agreed to negotiate a few days later.

I didn t expect to pretend to be stupid with the official as soon as I came up, saying that it was just a trivial matter for the sake of the empire's health problems or anything, okay, the official looked at you and pretended.

Since he was about to start negotiating, Wang Bin actually didn't have any diplomatic experience and wouldn't say anything like diplomatic rhetoric, so after a few casual words with Lin Quanzhu, Wang Bin directly shifted the topic to the land that was invaded this time.

"Your Excellency, you must know that the land from Tumen to Liudaogou has always been the territory of our Great Qing Dynasty, and this time you have invaded the territory of my Great Qing Dynasty for no reason, shouldn't you give an explanation?"

As soon as Wang Bin's words came out, Lin Quanzhu immediately felt a little embarrassed, the original topic was talked about well, why did the painting style suddenly change, originally Lin Quanzhu also felt that today's talk was very good, you blow the cowhide for a while, I blow the cowhide for a while, why do you suddenly think of the land now.

However, Wang Bin brought it up, Lin Quanzhu couldn't prevaricate in the past, and he still had to reply to Wang Bin's words.

"Your Excellency Governor, this is not something I can decide, after all, I also hope that there will be no contradictions between our two countries, so I can only unilaterally apologize for such a thing."

Lin Quanzhu's words are very interesting, he just unilaterally said that he apologized to Qingguo, and did not mention anything else.

"Your Excellency, no matter what kind of apology you have, I need an explanation for this matter, after all, this matter has violated the relevant rights and interests of our country."

Wang Bin was not very satisfied with Lin Quanzhu's words.

And Lin Quanzhu thought in his heart after listening to Wang Bin's words: To give you an explanation, I am really embarrassed to tell you that I am really embarrassed, Governor Wang, we don't want to invade your country's land, it is really your Minister of War Tie Liang who wants us to occupy this land, and then find an excuse to destroy you!

However, thinking like this psychologically, Lin Quanzhu still said on the bright side: "Your Excellency Governor, in my country's opinion, the land from Tumen to Liudaogou should indeed belong to the Korean State, not to the Great Qing Dynasty. ”

Wang Bin just scoffed at Lin Quanzhu's words, and if the politician's words could be believed, the sows would be able to go up the tree.

"Then Your Excellency, since you keep saying that the land on this line belongs to the Kingdom of Korea, then this official has to ask, where is the evidence?"

Regarding Wang Bin's question, Lin Quanzhu seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and then said to Wang Bin

"Your Excellency Governor, as far as I know, there are a lot of Korean people living here from Tumen to Liudaogou, and if this land does not belong to the Kingdom of Korea, then why do these Korean people live here in Tumen?"

After listening to Lin Quanzhu's words, Wang Bin immediately felt funny.

"What Your Excellency the Minister said is quite reasonable, if according to what Your Excellency the Minister said, there are also many people from my Qing Kingdom living there in your country, can this official think that your country is actually a part of my Great Qing Kingdom?"

Lin Quanzhu was a little caught off guard after listening to Wang Bin's words, this Wang Bin didn't play cards according to the routine at all, but in the face of Wang Bin's words, Lin Quanzhu was also embarrassed and said.

"Your Excellency the Governor is really joking, according to such words, wouldn't the world be in chaos, and anyone can say that a certain piece of land belongs to their own country!"

"Since Your Excellency knows this, why don't you show evidence that this area of Tumen belongs to the Kingdom of Korea?"

Wang Bin didn't know that his sentence was in Lin Quanzhu's arms, but after Wang Bin finished speaking, Lin Quanzhu took out a document from the bag on the side, and the content of the document was a letter from Gojong of Korea to Japan, which said very simply, that is, the land from Tumen to Liudaogou belonged to the Kingdom of Korea.

It's just that it was occupied by the Qing State, so on the national letter, Joseon Gojong hoped that the Japanese could take back this piece of land for him. (To be continued.) )
