Chapter 174: Envoy Yuren
Under the threat of the bows and arrows of several feather warriors, He Yunyi trembled and walked into this newly appeared feather man town.
It's a town, but it's just a series of treehouses built on top of huge and stout trees. Of course, these trees are not Earth's trees, but appear directly here through plane overlaps. Only a large hall covering an area of more than ten acres in the open space in the center of the town is still in shape.
He Yunyi was ordered to send Yuren this time, but he was also forced to be helpless. He, the propaganda minister, became the minister when there were few people under Xiang Ningxuan at that time, and he relied on his thick skin.
But now, Xiang Ningxuan's subordinates are full of talents, and his two deputies are not fuel-efficient lamps, and not long after he took office, he showed an aggressive momentum.
Of course, the most important thing is that a female subordinate climbed into his bed two days ago, and he didn't hold it and was caught. Once launched, it is not as simple as demotion, and it is likely to be sent to the agricultural reclamation force to farm. Now, his only way out is to seek wealth and danger.
Xiang Ningxuan also felt that letting a soft-footed shrimp like He Yunyi make a feather man more paralyzed the other party. So, he got this mission.
A feather man in a gorgeous costume finally appeared in front of He Yunyi. This is the ceremonial officer of the feather people, and all the movements are at a glance, as if they should be in harmony with some kind of etiquette.
At this time, He Yunyi was very excited. Politeness shows that the other party is a civilized person, and if a civilized person is a civilized person, he will not be able to cook and eat him.
In front of the Hall of the Feathered People, two rows of feathered warriors wearing silver-white rune armor and carrying white wings stood on both sides of the aisle with spears. When He Yunyi approached, there was a "swish", and the spear stabbed out diagonally in unison, and the left and right sides crossed each other.
Seeing this scene, He Yunyi's legs were weak, and he relied on the support of the Yuren Rite Officer next to him to prevent him from falling. Such a cowardly performance made the two rows of spear-wielding feathers almost unable to hold back their laughter.
As soon as he entered the main hall of the main hall, He Yunyi didn't even see what was going on inside, so he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Foreign Minister He Yunyi, see the king, long live the king, long live the king!" ”
There was a burst of laughter from above, and then he said, "Get up!" ”
He Yunyi trembled and got up.
I saw a middle-aged feather man wearing a golden crown and a golden robe, sitting proudly on the main seat in the center, his face was not as narrow and long as other feather people, but more similar to humans.
There was a man and a woman standing beside him, the male one was the feather forging that had pitted Lian Yunfei at the beginning, and the female was a young feather man with blonde hair and red eyes, her wings were also different, even if she was behind her, she also emitted a faint golden light.
He Yunyi took out a box with a sneer, and said respectfully: "On the orders of my lord, the foreign minister has come to present a gift to the king. ”
As he spoke, he opened the box and showed it to the three feathered people, and inside the box was a fist-sized piece of emerald, shining green and round.
Yu Dao, who was sitting at the top, said: "Don't call me indiscriminately, I am Yuguang, the city lord of Qingbi City, not a king." Although he was scolding, his tone was not stern, his eyes were fixed on the perfect emerald, and his breathing was slightly short.
Seeing the expression of the feather people, He Yunyi finally felt a sense of superiority in his heart, this level of jewelry is not the best in the Silver Mountain Mine, if he wasn't afraid of frightening these feather people, he could bring a diamond the size of a football.
He Yunyi still said respectfully on the surface: "My lord hopes that humans and feather people can coexist peacefully and be friendly for generations. ”
The Feather City Lord sitting in the center was just about to nod in agreement, but the Feather Forging beside him hurriedly made a gesture, and then stepped out and said, "Hmph! The last time you hurt my servants, this gem should be taken as an attribution. If you want to ally with us, you will pay three times the value of this gem every year. Of course, we are not taking your tribute in vain, I think you are just some barbarians who don't know how to count the etiquette, let your master send a son over, and we will teach him the number of etiquette. ”
"Ahh This human thief is so shameless, obviously he wants a proton, but he actually teaches etiquette. He Yunyi scolded secretly in his heart, and said with a wry smile on his face: "Lord City Lord, my master has not yet married a wife, let alone has no heirs, so I really can't accept the kindness of the city lord!" ”
Speaking of this, He Yunyi had an idea, and said with a shy face: "Lord of the city, why don't you marry a daughter to my master, and then we will be a family!" ”
"The dog thief is rude!" Before Yuguang could speak, Yuji had already jumped up, pulled out the sword at his waist and was about to step forward.
Only then did Yu Guang wave his hand and speak: "Yu Forging, don't be rude. After stopping Yu Forging, he said to He Yunyi: "You and I are of different races, so it is not appropriate to intermarry." It is not necessary to mention the matter of learning the etiquette, but the annual tribute must not be less. In addition to jewelry, you must also provide a thousand pounds of steel, a thousand horses of cloth, and a thousand loads of grain. ”
He Yunyi has a deeper understanding of the nature of the feather people's earth buns, what the hell is a thousand catties of steel? Before the end of the day, the country produced 100 million tons of steel every year.
At this time, He Yunyi had already passed the initial fear, recalled "actor's self-cultivation" in his heart, showed a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, and said astringently: "Ah? So much stuff? We don't have a lot of money! ”
Yuguang didn't embarrass him, and said, "The amount of steel cloth and grain can't be less, but the time can be a little more lenient, and you can just send it next month." ”
Seeing that He Yunyi was still bargaining, Yu Forging drew his sword with a cruel smile on his face, and wanted to step forward and cut people.
He Yunyi immediately nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I will go and prepare to ensure that it will be delivered on time." ”
Next, He Yunyi proposed to ask the Yuren to help deal with the six Jiao in the swamp, and after some bargaining, or being coerced and lured by the Yuren, he finally asked the Yuren to take action after paying a lot of money.
He Yunyi brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and gave them all out on the spot. As for the other supplies promised, they were to be collected under the pretext that they would be delivered in a month's time.
As for how it will be delivered in a month, hehe, of course, it will be delivered with guns!
At the end of the negotiations, the two sides immediately signed a contract in different languages. Somehow, most of the intelligent life that came to Earth was able to speak the local language, but the script was different.
After a dinner party for the guests and hosts, He Yunyi went back with the contract that night.
The leaders of the feather people gathered happily to watch the jewels sent by He Yunyi. The emerald naturally belonged to the city lord, but the other gold and silver jewelry, the feather people present all showed a look of anticipation.
This batch of gold and silver jewelry is full of color, exquisite craftsmanship, and the feather people's own jewelry is ten streets.
Yuguang was not stingy, and waved his big hand and said, "Each of you can pick a favorite one." As he spoke, he personally picked out a diamond necklace of more than ten carats, handed it to the blonde-haired and red-eyed feather woman, and said, "Yan'er, I think this necklace is very compatible with you, wear it and let my father see it." ”
Yu Yan took the necklace, but did not put it on, but said: "Father, we don't know the situation here, isn't it too hasty to agree to the request of the human race so easily to deal with the six Jiao?" ”
Yu Forging interjected directly: "Yan'er, don't worry, human beings are stupid and cowardly, look at the messenger they sent, it is really a, I was scared, and I agreed to everything!" Hahahaha. When all our people are here, I will bring a great army to capture their leaders. This dog thief, the toad actually wants to eat swan meat, and I want to make him a slave forever. ”
"Hmm!" Yuguang also nodded, "The top priority now is to take all the clansmen over." There is abundant spiritual power here, and human beings are cowardly, which can be the foundation of our race. The high priest said that this place is unpredictable, and you have seen it, where is the danger? Yan'er, you are the proud disciple of the high priest, persuade her well. The old Qingbi City is rampant with monsters, and its resources are depleted, so it is really no longer suitable for our clan to live. With the help of the High Priest, we will be able to move our people to this new world as soon as possible. This is also for the sake of all of us Yu clansmen. ”
"Alas, well!" Yu Yan nodded helplessly.
