I will be the king in troubled times Chapter 32 Throw yourself into your arms and embrace the West Mountain Collar
Because the trip to Xishan did not inform Sun in advance, it caused a lot of panic, and after it was confirmed that it was an auspicious ship, Sun's old face smiled into a flower.
Wang Xuan sailed to the shore in a small boat with the guards, and Sun had already led everyone to greet him.
"The Xishan Sun clan has seen the young and promising lord of the auspicious Wang clan, who has worked hard all the way, and got into the carriage, and prepared a thin wine in the house to wash the dust for you. Sun smiled as always with an easy-going smile and led Wang Xuan into a luxurious carriage in the middle.
The road was bumpy, and after about a meal, the carriage turned into a courtyard and stopped, and someone stepped forward to invite Wang Xuan to sit in the hall.
Wang Xuan entered the door and saw that the wine and food were already being prepared, and he couldn't help but be surprised, this Sun's efficiency was not low.
The interior decoration of the house is not luxurious, but it is extravagant and ingenious.
At this time, Sun led a 128-year-old woman to come, and introduced herself: "Auspicious lord, this is a little girl, she has been carefully cultivated since she was a child, although she is not proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she can also handle it; ”
At this time, the woman bowed slightly, and said crisply: "The little woman Sun Ning has seen the auspicious lord. ”
Wang Xuan returned the courtesy according to the number of courtesies, and said in his heart that this Sun family was really persistent, and he hurried to give himself a woman. So he said weakly: "Miss Sun is polite, there is no need to be like this." ”
That Sun Ning is delicate, sweet and lovely, petite, graceful, and a rare beautiful woman, but Wang Xuan is not very cold, and vulgarly speaking, he doesn't call.
After a few polite words of mutual temptation, the wine and food were ready, and the maid was about to pour the wine, but was stopped by Wang Xuan, and then a guard presented five bottles of wine from the Wang Distillery, all of which were about forty degrees.
"This wine is the secret of my Wang family, you can taste it and see if you can get it. ”
As soon as the words fell, the maid obediently changed the wine and poured it for everyone.
Xishan people have never drunk such a pure liquor, after the cup is full, the aroma of the wine is elegant, refreshing, smell and feel great satisfaction, the wine worm in the heart has also been eager to try, everyone unconsciously licked their lips, swallowed the liquid in the mouth.
"On behalf of auspiciousness, I thank Xishan Ling for his hospitality, and I will do it first. Wang Xuan said and drank it all.
The cup of three coins was just dried up in one gulp, and everyone's expressions were very wonderful after drinking a glass, and the sound of urging the maid to pour wine was everywhere.
The people of Xishan suddenly became extremely enthusiastic, and they rushed to toast the mascot, including the intention of wanting to drink a few more glasses. After a few rounds of fighting with each other, the atmosphere was already warm, and Wang Xuan couldn't help but drink more, and after ten cups of stomach, he stopped pouring wine.
The mascots sitting except for Wang Xuan and Zhao Gongzi are all soldiers, and they will seal the cup in time according to the amount of wine. So the Xishan people, who couldn't find a chance, started a civil war, calling brothers and sisters to drink and talk happily, and you come and I are not lively. I didn't eat much food, but I drank ten catties of wine.
Sun was also a little dizzy, so the meeting that night was aborted and everyone rested.
November 6th, early in the morning.
The sobered Xishan people did not show an embarrassed look, and objected to the mascot becoming more polite.
After breakfast, Wang Xuan and Sun went into the study to discuss important matters.
"I agree with the construction of the wharf in Xishan, it just so happens that the six bridges in Xishan are about to be completed, and this group of workers and the two hundred engineers I brought will join forces to complete the wharf in one month, I don't know what Sun Ling's idea is?" Wang Xuan got straight to the point.
"Ah, so good, very good, or the mascot has the ability, such a complex project can be completed in a month, envy." Sun's expression was slightly exaggerated.
"Then, is the place up to us?" asked Wang Xuan.
"That's natural, you think it's convenient, but ......" Sun wanted to say but stopped.
Seeing this, Wang Xuan followed his meaning and continued, "But how?"
"We in Xishan hope that you will build a trade center near the dock to enhance the economic and trade exchanges between the two sides, and build another road to connect the trade center with the lord's palace. ”
Sun made a request with some trepidation, but seeing that Wang Xuan did not answer, he gradually frowned, and hurriedly added: "Except for you, no one has this technology and materials, you can rest assured, we will bear the food, clothing, housing and transportation of your personnel, and we will also recruit the labor needed, you see?"
"Yes, but since it is a military dock, a specific area is not open to the public, and I ask Lord Sun to be considerate. ”
"That's natural, my Sun and Wang are each other's horns, lips and teeth depend on each other, and the convenience of others is convenient for oneself, this truth Sun still understands, you can choose the boundary by the lake, if necessary, I will move the nearby villages. ”
This sincerity is not small, if Wang Xuan is the lord of Xishan, he will never agree, the original military dock has become a substantial military base, and Xishan has begun to take the initiative to move closer to auspiciousness.
"In this case, on behalf of Jixiang, I would like to thank Lord Sun for his sincere friendship, and I hereby promise that if Xishan is invaded by foreign enemies, I Jixiang will send troops to support and advance and retreat with Xishan. After receiving enough benefits, Wang Xuan finally made Sun's long-awaited promise.
"Oh, it's really a brother leader, I'm relieved to have my brother's words, you see, is it necessary for my lord's mansion to move to the vicinity of the military port?"
This suggestion made Wang Xuan's heart vigilant, and he said impartially: "In the land of the Sun family, it is natural to move wherever you want, why should I ask." ”
Sun laughed out loud and said busily: "I'm thinking, it's safer to be close to the military port, and besides, if you really can't resist the foreign enemy, it's not convenient to run away." ”
Wang Xuan was amused, the words before the relationship were not temptations, they were really timid, and they were really wonderful.
"Brother Fool has a reluctant request, I wonder if the brother can satisfy one or two?" asked Sun, licking his face.
"Please. ”
"At the beginning, my brother shook the Red Flame 20,000 army with 1,000 soldiers for three days and nights, and after five days, he completely annihilated the invading enemy.
Wang Xuan glanced at Sun, this guy had an obscene look on his face, and his smile was so crooked. The Sun family also seemed to have completely let go, revealing an expression that all men understand, without the slightest trace of embarrassment, Wang Xuan sighed secretly, sure enough, if you are the most cheap, you are invincible, even Zhao Xiaogongzi is in front of the Sun family, I am afraid that he will have to bow down.
"It's okay, but all the expenses during the period have to be borne by Xishanling. The other party is refreshing, and Wang Xuan is even more refreshing.
"It's not a thing, brother, don't worry, keep the brothers who came to eat and drink spicy, monthly hardware, can you still be satisfied?" Sun waved his hand and said heroically.
"My brother is so sincere, where do I have any dissatisfaction, then let's settle it like this. The military port and military base will be completed by the end of December, and the economic and trade zone will be built north of the military base and will be completed by the end of January. As for the highway from the economic and trade zone to the lord's house, it will be built according to the auspicious first-class road standard, and the completion date will depend on the distance. The guards were transferred from my inner guard, a squadron of fifty people, what do you think?"
Sun carefully savored the timetable of the construction plan listed by Wang Xuan, and after determining that it was in line with reality, he also readily agreed, so the two sides began to draw up the "Jixi Xi'an Protection Treaty" and the "Jixi Economic and Trade Treaty".
The so-called economic and trade treaty is to exempt the two sides from tariffs and implement commodity complementarity, not only commodities are exchanged, but also businessmen will be exchanged. For example, the Du Fang Du family, who deals in silk and cloth, can freely go to Xishan to open a cloth village, and the people of Xishan should treat them as the same as the people, and they should not be harsh.
In Wang Xuan's view, the significance of this economic and trade treaty has gone beyond the security treaty, and since then, Xishan has become his family's back garden for Wang Xuan. As for why the Sun family made such a decision, he didn't go to the bottom of it, and he would be hated if he got cheap and then sold well.
The two sides signed these two treaties at noon in the Xishan Lord's Palace, and there were no less than 100 witnesses on the spot, and the reaction of the Xishan people was even more excited than that of the mascot, which always troubled Wang Xuan and others.
In the afternoon, Wang Xuan met with Gu Yongnian, the auspicious envoy in Xishan, which is the most elegant name that Wang Xuan has ever seen, which is not easy.
Wang Xuan told all about the signing of the contract with Xishan, and Gu Yongnian pondered for a long time before speaking: "The minister recently heard a rumor that the Sunset Leader and the Sunset Leader on the south side of the Sunset Canyon have an advantage in the battle with the Xihe Leader in the south, and once the Xihe Leader is defeated, he can take advantage of the Half Moon Leader to reach the Xishan Territory. The reason why Sun is so anxious is probably not without such a reason. ”
Wang Xuan didn't know why, he sent someone to draw a map of Daxia before, but now it has reached the stage of splicing, and the proportion and connection must be seamless, and I am afraid that I will not see the results in the short term.
When Gu Yongnian saw Wang Xuan frowning, he knew that he might be burdened by the place name, so he picked up a branch and drew it on the ground.
To put it simply, there are three territories west of the North Star Yao River that are in a state of war, and two territories that are in a state of readiness.
The middle of the north river west is separated by the Sunset Gorge, and the south is the Sunset Leader and the Sunset Leader, which is the power of the Great Prince. To the south is the narrow and rectangular West River collar in the middle, and on the right is the North Star Yao River.
It is bordered by the Xihe Collar to the north by the Banyue Collar and the Xingfeng Collar, to the north by the Xishan Collar and to the east by the Hubei Collar and by the Xingfeng Collar by the Huagong Collar, and to the south by the Huagong Collar by the Hubei Collar.
If Xihe is defeated, then the forces of Beihexi who are loyal to the second prince will be cleared, then the Xishan Domain, which has a gap with the Sunrise Leader, is the target of the conquest, and the neutral Half Moon Leader does not dare to refuse the request of the Sunrise and Sunset Lords, who are ten times stronger than Xishan, and the Xishan Domain will only be destroyed in an instant, no wonder the Sun clan will behave like this.
In this way, auspiciousness was a little yin by Xishan.
"Interesting, what is the attitude of Congshan who rules the entire foot of the West Mountain?" asked Wang Xuan.
"The area of the mountain range is vast, but it seems that it does not want to be involved in the struggle for the throne, although it borders the northern part of the Xishan Territory, there is no friction, and the overall strength is unknown, but it can be confirmed that the people from the mountain range are better at jungle warfare. Gu Yongnian said.
"Hey, judging from the map, the Xishan Collar, the Hubei Collar, the Huagong Collar, and the Xingfeng Collar actually surrounded the Half Moon Collar and the Half, so it's no wonder that it chose neutrality. Wang Xuan stared at the map.
"The Lord is wise. Gu Yongnian said.
"Don't be afraid of sycophants, your recent task is to ensure the smooth progress of the construction of ports, bases, and economic and trade centers, and the Xihe Territory will not be defeated so quickly, and there are still 3,000 nails in the rotten ship. There is another one, when the Xishan leader should be tough, he must not be soft-hearted, and the auspicious advantage is not so easy to take advantage of. Wang Xuan was looking forward to Sun's expression on the return trip, maybe the price would be lower at that time.
On the afternoon of the 6th, Wang Xuan led the crowd to Huxi, and when Sun saw that he could not keep the crowd, he hurried to replenish the fleet with vegetables and fresh water, and also sent two fat goats. Wang Xuan smiled together, and everyone drove nine ships to the west with reluctant eyes.
