In the fair injustice one said! ”

After Higg finished speaking, he turned to Baltony and said, "Lord Chincha, you only need to complete your mission according to Your Majesty's wishes, if you can't complete it, don't worry, report to Your Majesty!" The matter of surveying the boundary is not so easy and simple, try to solve it once and for all, and do not leave too many unsolved cases for future generations, so that later generations do not know the results of the negotiations at that time and meet each other! ”

"Yes, Lord Duke!" Barttney said.

"But it's not as simple as surveying the boundaries now!" Josephine said, "Your Majesty the Queen, at this time, has asked my country for the territory of your country that was leased thousands of years ago, that is, the entire territory of the forest country owned by the Carlos dynasty, and even the transition zone of the Silent Forest! ”

"Oh?" Higdao was very interested and asked, "Since there is a lease agreement between the two countries, then it is better to follow the lease agreement, what is there to dispute?" ”

"Lord Duke, this is a copy of the agreement signed between the two countries thousands of years ago, please take a look at it!" Bartoni said with a thick agreement in his hands respectfully.

"You told me directly, I can't talk about it now, what's the problem?" Higg said without glancing at the agreement.

Balteni said unhurriedly: "The main content of the agreement is that the land leased by Aylasia to the Forest State is the eastern territory of Aylasia, that is, north of the province of Camillo, south of the Silent Forest, east to the sea, and west by the Dejong Mountains and the Guangmo River, of which the Silent Forest is the transition zone, which belongs to I, Aracea. The royal family of the forest pays 20% of the taxes collected by the forest nation to the Alasia Empire as lease money every year! ”

"How long is the lease?" Higg asked.

Bartony said: "There is no specific lease period, but it is written that after the forest royal family takes back the Druid territory, they can return the territory of my Ahasia Nation!" ”

"Lord Josephine, is what our messenger said true?" Higg asked.

"That's right, the agreement does!" Josephine said, "But now the situation is different, the agreement of a thousand years ago was signed between the royal family of the forest and the royal family of Aracia, and now the royal family of the forest no longer exists, and it is difficult to find someone to honor the contract!" ”

"Oh?" Higg smiled, "Lord Josephine, in this case, your country wants to pay the bills?" The current Council of the Forest Nation is only willing to accept the inheritance of the wealth of the people and the royal family left by the forest royal family, and is not willing to take on the debts of the forest royal family, is it? ”

"No, we didn't mean that!" Josephine said, "We have never said that we will not return these territories!" It's just that Mr. Higg should know that not long after the restoration of our forest country, the parliamentary system will be practiced, and everyone can participate in politics, and we must take into account the will of the people in order to return such a large area of land rashly. Therefore, I hope that the lease period of the land will be extended a little, so that we can do the work of the people, and I hope that your country can understand! ”

"I can understand it, and so can Lord Chincha!" Higg said, "But Her Majesty doesn't understand, we, as courtiers, are only doing things for Your Majesty, and you should make this kind of thing clear to Her Majesty as soon as you return to the country!" Now Her Majesty is also newly restored, and so is your country, which needs the country to stabilize, and Her Majesty wants to gain the support of the people by recovering the country, and there is nothing wrong with that! And your country does not want to lose a large part of its territory just after its restoration, so that the people will lose confidence in the newly established parliament, so it is understandable that it will not return the territory for the time being. However, it was a lack of communication between you that led to today's events, and it was even possible that you would meet each other. Sir Josephine, I may not speak for your country, the difficulties you are talking about are your country's own internal affairs, how to appease your people's hearts, is also the business of your country's parliament, it has nothing to do with our country, we will take back the land according to the agreement, this makes sense! ”

"Isn't there any room for negotiation in your country?" Josephine asked disappointedly.

"Let me say something!" When Sindorf was full of food and drink, he immediately stood up and said with a smile, "The country of Alasia has a great favor to my forest country, and it is better not to have a war against each other!" At the beginning, the royal family of the forest was persecuted by the druids, and went to the east of Erathia to get the protection of Erathia and protect countless people in my forest country! Why didn't the druids who were in full swing at that time dare to go south to attack the remnants of the royal family in the Forest Country? It was because this land was protected by Erathia that the druids did not dare to make a mistake! At this point, tens of millions of generations of descendants of the forest country must remember this kindness, which is the kindness left by our ancestors, and our descendants cannot take revenge! But, Lord Chincha and Fuxing Gong, can your country bear to see civil strife among the people of the forest country they once preserved? Would you like to see Erathia and the Forest Country, who have been friends for generations, really go to war? ”

"But this is the king's command!" "The king's orders can only be done by order!" ”

"Listen to me!" "The land can be returned, but what about the people of the Forest Country, do they want to stay on the land of Erathia?" Obviously it is impossible, and your country is not willing to accept the people of the forest country, because this will cause endless civil strife and worry for yourself! But if the people of the original royal family want to move the forest country north, hundreds of millions of people, have you thought about how big a project it is? If your country really needs this land now, then take it, I don't think your country has the ability to control the hundreds of millions of people who have lived in this forest country for thousands of years, and when the time comes, I am afraid, your country will have to ask our country to help accept refugees, so why bother? ”

"That's a big problem!" Higg smiled and asked, "So, according to Lord Sindorf, how can this problem be properly solved?" ”

"Fuxing Gong, you are asking the wrong person!" "I just said something, it doesn't mean that I'm a member of the negotiating delegation, and I don't have the right to say how to do it!" ”

"Lord Sindorf, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" Josephine said, "We are also brainstorming now, and as for whether to adopt it or not, I will naturally speak then!" ”

"I said, Lord Josephine, your food for entertaining guests is too shabby!" Lu Faxi said very unhappily, "I don't have any oil and water in my stomach, just drinking tea and eating some melons and fruits, it's too boring!" ”

"Presumably this is what Marisa often calls Lord Lufasi!" Josephine smiled, "Okay, I'll order someone to prepare the banquet, but the banquet will have to wait a while, so let's hear what Master Sindorf has to say first!" ”

"Okay, I'll give a proposal, the representatives of both sides have adopted it, I will sit at the table to drink wine and eat meat, if I don't adopt it, I will talk nonsense!" "The land of the original forest country is so vast, with a population of more than 100 million, and after several generations of elves, how can it be said that it can be moved? When the elven royal family signed the agreement with the Alasia royal family, they thought that the concession land would only take ten or eight years, and the matter would be easy to solve, but the population involved was not large, and the property was not much, so in that case, the restoration of the country would be returned, of course, it could be done. But now that the times have changed, no one would have imagined that the concession would last so long, which makes the problem complicated! Back then, the rice was eaten one bite at a time, and now we have to pull it out little by little to solve the matter of returning the land! What I mean by this is to divide the land that should be returned into ten parts, one every ten years, so that the forest country will have time to settle its own people, and your country will have time to slowly move in and manage it, so that both sides will not be in a hurry! Of course, the rent is paid, and it is paid in full, until the last inch of land is returned. That is to say, in this 100-year period, the forest country wants to pay 20% of the original forest country's domestic tax to the country of Alasia every year, and this year's tax is used as the base, and 20% of this year's tax is paid. ”

"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, Lord Sindorf sees the big from the small, and thinks about it thoroughly, and it is really an old man who seeks the country!" Higg was genuinely impressed.

"Lord Sindorf really said that he resolved the concerns of the two countries!" Josephine said with a smile, "I don't have an opinion on this matter, but the stakes are very high, and I have to go back to Ningguta City to discuss the state in the parliament, I don't dare to advocate it!" ”

"Of course, how can such a big matter be negotiated without a year or two of tug-of-war negotiations?" Higg smiled, "What do you think, Lord Chincha? ”

"Xiaguan listens to Lord Fuxing!" Baltoni said with a smile.

"Don't try to put the blame on me!" Higg smiled, "If you can't be the master, go back and report this matter to Your Majesty, and discuss it in the court!" My suggestion is that although the places involved are around the city of Madeya, but the decisions are made in the royal cities of the two countries, this kind of thing should be directly discussed in Ningguta or Crodina City, which can save a lot of time! ”

"Yes, Lord Duke, I will definitely report this matter to Your Majesty!" Barttney said.

"That's exactly how it should be!" Josephine said, "Then, next time, I will trouble Lord Qincha and go directly to Ningguta City to negotiate!" ”

"No, Lord Josephine!" Higg smiled, "Friends are still courteous, let alone exchanges between great powers?" Next time, it will be your country that sends people to the city of Croatia to negotiate to show the sincerity of both sides! ”

"Oh, are you guys going on and on?" Lufasi was furious, threw a fruit bowl directly on the ground, and said loudly, "Leave my old man and this little guy hungry here, be careful that I set your palace on fire!" ”

"Now that the general meaning has been reversed, let's put an end to it for the time being!" Josephine smiled and said, "Please go and change your clothes first, I don't want to sit at the same table with a few beggars!" ”
