Chapter 428: Everything is ready
"It's easy! We can supply as much food as you want. What is the price...... In exchange for the land that is 'bordering us', you must publicly promise not to invade and recognize our territory! ”
Lu Chen couldn't wait, but Jian Yan was very "kind" and didn't take advantage of the fire to rob, and quickly responded.
"Huh?!"
The audience was stunned, including Lu Chen, Bian Long, Wu Huan generals, and everyone from the Penglai Chamber of Commerce, including Dongfang Clan, Qi Ji, Jiang Sheng and others, all of them looked at Jian Yan in disbelief, their mouths were wide open, and they were speechless!
The words are not shocking, and the death is endless!
"What the prince said is true?!"
After reacting, without waiting for others to react, Lu Chen quickly asked nervously and solemnly.
The price of selling grain is about the same as exchanging rice for soil!
In the long run, it was naturally Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army that suffered a big loss. In the moment, it is no different from giving it away for nothing.
Because, although the rebel army of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang was preparing to establish himself as king, it was not yet after all. Moreover, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army is still 108,000 miles away from unifying the world, and it is not the Great Qin Empire that unified the world before, and who the territory of the world belongs to is not what Chen Sheng and Wu Guang said.
Whether Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army can unify the world or not, there is not a single word yet!
Take 10,000 steps back, even if Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army can really unify the world.
The so-called whole world is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. At that time, there will be countless ways and countless excuses to get back the territory where he exchanged grain with King Wuhuan at this time. Even a rake. Define King Wuhuan as a thief!
Success or defeat, that's the reason!
Even if Chen Sheng and Wu Guang are a "gentleman" who keeps his promises, how big is the world? For a vast country, this bit of land is not bad for food!
Free giveaway! King Wuhuan is obviously giving it away for nothing!
It seems that King Wu Huan's previous jokes were not jokes, but he really wanted to "unconditionally" fund Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army!
"This king has always been true to his word!"
Jian Yan ignored the suspicions of everyone present, his face was straight, and his tone was serious.
"What do you mean by this?!"
As soon as Jian Yan's words fell, Bian Long was quite annoyed and stared at Jian Yan and asked repeatedly.
Bian Long's thoughts were a lot worse than Lu Chen's. In Bian Long's heart, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, these peasant rebels, will not do much after all.
King Wu Huan's move was simply an excuse to justifiably participate in the battle for the world. It's no different from being the king of independence and betraying the Great Qin Empire!
Traitors occupy or even stolen territory and trade it?
Just kidding, will the imperial court probably admit it?
"Good ......"
At the same time, Lu Chen was afraid of the sword and said in a remorseful voice.
"General Lu Chen is not busy agreeing, because you are not the person in charge now, it is best to pass our original words to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, and discuss in detail after confirmation!"
As soon as Lu Chen said that he wanted to make a decision immediately, Jian Yan quickly raised his hand. Stopping Lu Chen from continuing, he said in a serious tone, and especially emphasized the word "original words".
Hearing Jian Yan say this, Lu Chen suddenly frowned, and was about to speak......
"General Lu, don't worry! With the leader and principal of the Penglai Chamber of Commerce here, this king will naturally not be untrustworthy, General Lu does not need to doubt this, as long as he can be sure that you will not backtrack! ”
Jian Yan didn't wait for Lu Chen to speak, and quickly reminded.
"Does the prince plan to let me fight the world for the prince without spending a single soldier?"
He was interrupted by King Wu Huan several times. Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and after pondering for a moment, he asked solemnly.
"If you think so, the king will not deny it! Anyway...... Since it's a deal, it's naturally your willingness! ”
The sword didn't answer in the affirmative. It's a plausible answer.
"Good! I hope that the prince will keep his word! ”
Lu Chen pondered for a moment in his heart, but he couldn't think of a reason for his refusal. Immediately solemnly reminded.
Although the credibility of King Wu Huan is recognized by the world, there is no example of untrustworthy at present. However, Lu Chen always felt that what King Wu Huan said was unrealistic and unbelievable!
How can there be such a business? Lu Chen naturally knew that King Wu Huan must have some plans, but for Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army in this business, Lu Chen couldn't think of a reason to refuse!
"As for General Bian Long, this king has the same attitude and treats him fairly! As long as General Bian Long can come up with the same chips! ”
Jian Yan didn't confirm his credibility again, but turned his head to look at Bian Long and said in a loud voice.
"The prince is the ...... of Great Qin"
Bian Long's face sank, and his tone was unhappy and angry.
"Don't say anything about the fact that this king is the prince of Great Qin, how the court treats this king is known to the world. This king will not betray Daqin, but this king is not a saint, but he will not repay his grievances with virtue, he just wants to do business fairly! ”
Without waiting for Bian Longduo to speak, Jian Yan's face sank, and he quickly interrupted Bian Long's words and said.
“……”
The Dongfang Clan, who was silent, was completely speechless for King Wu Huan.
Before, King Wu Huan also kept saying to them that the Penglai Chamber of Commerce was different, and military politics was not about doing business, it was not simply cost-effective, it was not cost-effective!
Now, they are full of business experience, and they are more realistic and realistic than their Penglai Chamber of Commerce.
"So, is the prince going to send troops to support?"
Bian Long pondered for a moment, and finally couldn't think of a bargaining chip that he could "do business" with King Wu Huan, so he couldn't help but ask angrily and solemnly.
"The facts are obvious! And it's not a question of support or not. ”
Jian Yan helplessly spread his hands and answered innocently. After a pause, he said with a straight face: "In this way, like General Lu Chen, if you want this king to send troops to support, you can exchange the land, you only need the county guard to publicly promise and admit it, so it's enough to take care of it, right?" ”
"Farewell!"
As soon as Jian Yan's words fell, Bian Long was too lazy to speak, and he was quite rude and gave his hand, and immediately turned his head and left.
What kind of joke is it to let the county guard of Hengshan County exchange land for reinforcements?
What's the difference between this and a traitor? It's simply impossible!
Looking at King Wu Huan's attitude, they don't pay any price in Hengshan County, and it is impossible for King Wu Huan to support a single soldier.
In that case, is there any need to continue the conversation? They originally came with the mentality that they should be "selfless" and support each other with the psychology of being ministers of the same dynasty!
"Now that Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebel army is developing rapidly, isn't the prince afraid that he will feed them and quickly turn back to attack the prince?"
Jian Yan's thoughts, Dongfang Clan could vaguely guess a little, but he was still quite puzzled and asked, and he didn't care that Lu Chen was on the scene.
“……”
Lu Chen frowned, and was about to refute, but he couldn't say anything.
After all, he is only Chen Sheng's attendant now, and calling him a general is already a promotion, how Chen Sheng and Wu Guang act, he said that it doesn't matter at all.
"It doesn't matter! A deal is a deal, and a strategy is a strategy. If they think it's more advantageous to attack this king, this king Chen Jun will wait! ”
Jian Yan didn't care about it, and his expression and tone were quite confident.
After a pause, he looked at Lu Chen and said, "General Lu remembers what he said. First, this king doesn't want to participate in the dispute for the Central Plains, so as long as this king falls to the territory south of it, to put it bluntly, it is Hengshan County; Second, if you want to get the grain quickly, then take the land as soon as possible and exchange it! ”
"Huh?"
Lu Chen's heart sank, and he was about to refute, thinking about it carefully, King Wu Huan seemed to have really said so before, but everyone was stunned by the conditions of the sword and didn't think about it carefully.
While pondering, Lu Chen did not refute, and his tone changed: "Don't worry, now that our army has arrived at the border of Hengshan County, with the momentum of our army, as long as the prince does not interfere, he will be able to Hengshan County in a short time!" ”
"Then the king is waiting for General Lu's good news!"
Jian Yan was noncommittal and replied with a smile.
"Then I will retire for the time being!"
Lu Chen nodded, politely and respectfully farewell.
"It's over! It's time for the palace to leave, and if the prince has figured it out, he can notify the shopkeeper Ji. For the time being, Shopkeeper Ji will be transferred to the shop in Yunlong City as the shopkeeper! ”
After Lu Chen said goodbye, Dongfang Clan also quickly got up and said.
As Jian Yan and the others thought before, Penglai Shop was indeed planning to establish a new shop in Yunlong City. However, the Dongfang clan naturally doesn't care about these small things.
"Good!"
Jian Yan looked at the brocade box that was taken back by Elder Nangong with regret, and re-wrapped the "Silent Night Thoughts", and deliberately got up to send it off to show his grandeur.
As for "A Hundred Birds and a Phoenix", the Penglai Chamber of Commerce is trustworthy and has stayed.
……
A moment later, only the sword and the generals of Wu Huan were left in the council room.
"As expected, this deal with Zhang Chushi should be reached, and it won't take too long. I wonder how well Gongsun Dianke (Dianke, the position in charge of diplomacy) has been preparing in recent months? ”
Jian Yan learned about the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, the giant wall project around the mountain, and the people's livelihood and economic development in recent months, so he looked at Gongsun Long and asked.
"Tell my lord! The subordinates are ready to go! ”
Gongsun Long pulled the placket of his shirt, and responded confidently with anticipation and excitement.
In recent months, Gongsun Long has indeed done a lot of homework on Lingnan, including the geographical environment, living customs, tribal distribution, distribution of potential forces, and the relationship and situation of Lingnan Baiyue.
"Hmmm! Communicate well with Yimo, and set off immediately! ”
Jian Yan still had more confidence in Gongsun Long, and quickly responded. After a pause, he looked at Jiang Sheng and quickly asked, "As for the army, how are the preparations going?" We can't put all our hopes on Zhang Chushi's strength, thinking that we can sit back and enjoy the success, and it is estimated that Hengshan County will not be stable by then! ”
"Tell my lord! There seems to be a problem in the election of the giant of the Yimo lineage, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to cooperate with his subordinates! ”
Before Jiang Sheng could answer, Gongsun Long hesitated and interjected to report.
"Something went wrong? What do you mean? Could it be that Yimo wants to repent and switch to the court? Or do you want to get out of the king's hands? ”
Jian Yan frowned, looked at Jiang Yao, who was in charge of intelligence, with displeasure, and asked in an unkind tone.
Jian Yan said that he would not interfere in the affairs of the Yimo lineage, but he would not allow the Yimo disciples to get out of control, after all, the situation is complicated, and it is impossible for everything to be handled by the army!
