Chapter 865: We Need a Good Friend

Yang Shunhui was actually very clear about what was going on in Muping City, and he was also very uncomfortable, when he received the first gift from the people of the Oplu Empire, he definitely didn't expect that he would be so entangled. On the one hand, there are good friends who have sent countless gold and silver treasures, and on the other hand, they are the people of the Great Sui, how to care?

At the beginning, Yang Shun simply pretended to be deaf and dumb, as if these things did not exist, just leave them to the local government to deal with, offended the local people and scolded him, offended the foreigners and he suffered a loss, Huang Cancan's gold has sparked his eyes, and the words of taking people's softness have been completely confirmed on him.

But then the foreigners put pressure, and Yang Shun wanted to pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore. The last time the foreigner injured the merchant in the street, he wanted to ignore it, but the Marquis of the Opru Empire named Cleo came directly to the door and said that if he didn't care, then the friendship between the two countries would come to an end. The merchants of the Oplu Empire will fully withdraw from Muping, and there are no more merchants from Eastern Chu, how dare Yang Shun lose the foreigners again?

That's a business that makes money every day.

But once this kind of thing starts, it can't be stopped. Himself had the first submission in front of the Marquis of Cleo, the second, the third, the fourth, and soon came. Yang Shunhui doesn't know the disadvantages of going on like this, foreigners are becoming more and more arrogant in Muping, and the people are complaining, but what can he do?

If you really speak to the people, the loss will be too great.

There is nothing that can change a person's mind faster and greatest than money. There is nothing that can destroy a person's self faster and greatest than desire.

When a person's greed has reached this point, even he cannot control himself. Moreover, it is not just a matter of greed, but an exchange of dominance. The foreigners have now completely taken the initiative, unless Yang Shun will turn his face, otherwise the foreigners will become more and more arrogant.

However, how could Yang Shun be willing to turn his face?

At noon, after finishing the meal with Cleo, he sent someone to pick up a few of the most brilliant Qinglou girls in the city, and now that Cleo is in the backyard of his house, and the mansion of a great general of the dignified Sui has become a place for foreigners to prostitute themselves during the day, and it is not right to say that Yang Shunhui is not angry in his heart, but he has gradually changed from a general to a slave of money. For him personally, it was a war, and it was conscience and dignity that were lost.

Seeing the displeasure on Yang Shunhui's face, staff member Dong An leaned forward and poured a cup of tea for Yang Shunhui: "General, is it because of the recent security on the street?" ”

Yang Shunhui is now more and more reusing Dong An, this person is a smart guy and can speak. In dealing with foreigners, basically eighty percent of the ideas were come up with by Dong An, which is very much in line with Yang Shunhui's appetite. Therefore, Yang Shun will simply hand over everything related to foreigners to Dong An to deal with, and he will only take care of the cashier.

"You too!"

Yang Shunhui sighed and said: "The last time the people made trouble, you sent someone to drive it away, why do you want to leave a few of my personal soldiers to protect the stall for the foreigners?" You don't have to think about it, you know that the people don't know how to scold me Yang Shunhui in private! If there is such a thing in the future, you don't want to be so brainless! ”

"My Great General!"

Dong An said a little innocently: "Those Diao people can't fight if they don't fight...... You also know that when the Eastern Chu people were there, they were used to the arrogance of our Sui people, but the Eastern Chu was weak, so they tolerated everywhere. But the merchants of the Oplu Empire are different, they are really here to do a good job, and they don't care much about business or anything at all, otherwise the price of goods is so much cheaper than that of the merchants of Eastern Chu? ”

"Foreigners are angry here, think about it, what are the merchants of Eastern Chu polite about? Because they begged us Sui people to do business, and pointed to us to buy their goods to make a fortune, so naturally we should be polite. But foreigners are not, people come for friendship, the price of goods is set so low, maybe they can't recover the cost if they are sent across the ocean, how much sincerity is this? ”

"People are here with sincerity, but what about those Diao people in our Muping City? Taking advantage of other people's big advantages, is it too much for people to drink a pot of wine for nothing? It's not too much, I actually grabbed someone's collar and didn't let go, if I changed it, I would be angry. How much is a pot of wine worth? We can't afford to send this pot of wine? ”

Yang Shunhui was stunned for a moment, and felt that Dong An's words also made sense: "That's right...... People from the Opru Empire really didn't come to make money. ”

Dong An said: "That's right! People are here to make friends, and they already treat us as friends. What is a friend? If I go to a friend's house for a pot of wine, and my friend pulls me to ask for money, the friend will definitely not be able to continue to make friends. ”

"So, ah......"

Dong An glanced at Yang Shunhui's face, smiled and said: "The best way to deal with these Diao people is not to be magnanimous, but to stop it immediately. Only by letting them understand what hospitality is, can they get more benefits from foreigners. These people are stupid and can't figure this out. If they offend foreigners because they make trouble, it is because of a small loss. General, you see, there are so many people in the city, how many are there really trouble? ”

Dong An said: "Just a few people, these people are actually Diao Min in their bones, and there were few things about our Sui people bullying the people of Eastern Chu at the beginning?" Isn't it because our own people think it's okay to bully outsiders at home? Such a person only needs to be taught a lesson, and he will not dare next time. ”

Yang Shunhui nodded: "In any case, it's better to have fewer such things." Although the Great Sui is not as big as before, it can't make people feel bullied. I'll leave these things to you, and try to appease both sides. ”

"My subordinates understand."

Dong An smiled with relief, knowing that he had once again succeeded in doing what the foreigners had told him. What does it mean to do things for the people of the Opru Empire? It represents gold and silver treasures!

"I'm tired, Cleo will come out in a moment and you will send it off. Send a team of people directly to the post station, so as not to disturb him by the people who want to make trouble. ”

Yang Shunhui rubbed the corners of his eyebrows and got up.

Dong An stood up with him and said tentatively: "General, I don't think we can lose our grace, although Cleo is a bit domineering, his heart to make friends is sincere." You can't be stingy with your friends, and there are enough gifts from others, or ...... Pick a suitable house in the city and give it to him? This business is not a matter of one or two days, and the friendship between the two countries cannot be continued, since Cleo is the representative of the Opru Empire in our Muping City, it is reasonable to send a mansion. ”

"It's okay"

Yang Shunhui nodded: "You go and arrange it, choose a suitable one to buy it, you tell the accounting office how much money it spent, and I will approve it when I go back." ”

"The subordinates will do a good job!"

Dong An smiled, and said in his heart that another sum of money had come in, which was good.

……

……

backyard

Cleo slapped the Qinglou woman's buttocks hard, and the snap was extraordinarily loud, and the woman screamed in pain, and Cleo stood up with a smile. He seemed to be very satisfied, and after getting up, he breathed a long sigh of relief and then ordered outside: "Go and tell General Yang Shunhui, just say that I am going back." ”

His Chinese language is not standard, but it is not too bad to be able to reach this level in a few months. After arriving in Muping, Cleo has been forcing himself to learn Chinese, not only to himself, but also to his subordinates. Because he knew very well that as an advance army sent by Lyman the Great, learning Chinese would help him a lot in the future.

He stipulated that as long as it was in Muping City, unless it was a confidential matter, the conversation should be in Chinese as much as possible, and the Chinese should be spoken fluently as soon as possible.

Dong An waited outside the door for a while, and when he heard Cleo speak, he hurriedly pushed the door in from outside with a flattering smile: "My esteemed Marquis, are you still satisfied with today's arrangement?" ”

Cleo smiled and said, "Master Dong knows my mind best, and even knows what kind of woman I like." Alas...... People like you are terrible, so I can only be friends with you, and definitely not enemies. ”

Dong An hurriedly said, "How can we become enemies? You are my best friend, just like a relative. ”

"Ha Lu Ha"

Cleo laughed: "What about General Yang Shunhui? ”

"He drank a little too much and went back to sleep."

"Hmm"

Cleo made a look, and Dong An immediately blasted the women in the Qinglou out of the house, and now Dong An, the foreign master, understood what he meant with a look.

"Yang Shunhui is here, I still need you to keep an eye on it."

Cleo said as he put on his coat: "Our great Emperor of the Opru Empire sincerely hopes to establish friendly relations with the Great Sui, and you can see our sincerity. But now...... I still haven't seen any contact with me from the Great Sui Imperial Court. I kept asking Yang Shunhui, and he always said that he had already made a comeback. I don't care what your twists and turns are, I just want to meet with your Great Sui royal family as soon as possible. ”

Dong Anxin said that it is better to find the Great Sui royal family, and the little emperor in the city is afraid that he will be placed under house arrest a long time ago. The news of the little emperor's death is still a secret, so Dong An does not know about it. In his opinion, it is already the bottom line that Yang Shun will dare to open Muping City privately and let foreigners in, and it is absolutely impossible to let foreigners continue to go to the Central Plains.

Yang Shunhui is a person who is really stubborn in some places. Dong An had already persuaded him several times to agree to the foreigners' request and let them go directly to Chang'an with the goods. Anyway, no one in the Central Plains can control Mu Ping now, so why not? But Yang Shunhui just didn't agree, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was afraid of.

"Lord Marquis, don't worry, I will continue to persuade Yang Shunhui."

Dong An replied with a smile, but he knew in his heart that this matter was not easy to do.

"Dong An, my friend."

Cleo pointed outside, "You can send me home." ”

"Yes"

Dong An nodded and followed him out of the door. The two of them walked through the General's Mansion and got into the carriage outside the gate of the front yard. Cleo ordered the driver to be given a few pieces of gold, and said that he wanted to try it himself. The coachman had never seen a foreigner so polite, looked at the heavy gold coin in his hand and hesitated for a while, and said in his heart that the carriage was not worth so much gold anyway, so he simply agreed.

A foreigner escort drove the car, and after the carriage started, Cleo suddenly glanced at Dong An: "Dong An, do you know what I will give Yang Shun so many gifts?" That's because I feel like he can be friends. The contribution of friends is mutual, we have paid, and naturally we hope to get the goodwill of Yang Shunhui. But so far, he hasn't been able to help me get in touch with your people from the Great Sui Royal Family. I now suspect that he is greedy for our gold. You must know that the gold of the Dao, but a large part of it is a gift to the Emperor of the Great Sui, you tell me, did Yang Shun really send it to Chang'an? ”

Dong An really couldn't answer, but smiled awkwardly.

"My friend, we people of the Opru Empire are not stupid and stupid, we are willing to make friends but do not want to be deceived. If we continue to do business in Muping City, the great Lyman the Great will punish me. If I die, your good days will come to an end. So, I want to ask...... My friend, are you bold enough? ”

"You...... What do you mean? ”

Dong An's face changed, and he couldn't help but twitch in his heart.

"We can't do without Yang Shunhui, but we can't do without good friends. If Yang Shunhui can't be friends, then we hope that people who are really willing to be friends with us will be in charge of business. If Yang Shun is not willing to help, then I hope someone can help us......"

He glanced at Dong An, smiled and said, "You should understand what I mean, right?" If you were to take full charge of the business affairs of the Opru Empire, how much benefit would you get? Such benefits, we only give to friends. Think about it, and if you're willing to do that, we'll give you some support. I know that you are worried about Yang Shunhui's army, and you are also worried about Yang Shunhui's ...... How? Oh yes! It's cultivation! ”

"Don't ignore the strength of Emperor Lyman, since we are here, we naturally have a certain understanding of you Sui people. So, there are some things that we are still prepared for. Dealing with you Sui cultivators...... Lyman the Great has already thought of a good idea. ”

"You don't know how to practice."

Cleo patted Dong An on the shoulder: "This is better, we hope that someone who will not use violence will manage Mu Ping, rather than a person who may destroy the friendship between the two countries and continue to sit on that chair." Think about it, I'll wait for your answer. ”

This moment

Dong An's face turned pale.

Sweat like a pig.
