"You're saying that we've spent so much money, so much time, so much energy, so much hope, and so much trouble to get you there... In the end, you can't even enter the doors of these countries?"

Rangi stared at the ambassador of the diplomatic mission in front of him with a little incredulity, his eyes flashing with anger that could not be concealed.

Opposite him, the three diplomats who had sent to Tiannanzhou sat in front of him with pale faces and trembling trembling, surrounded by members of the Standing Committee of the Blue Star National **** Association, as well as some other high-level personnel who participated in the meeting, because of Rangie's anger, the atmosphere in the venue seemed a little serious and cold.

At this time, President Rangi convened the Standing Committee of the National Assembly, representatives of the National Assembly and other high-level personnel to listen to the report of the diplomatic mission of Tiannanzhou. However, the three diplomats were on their toes for a long time, and only a pitiful little result of the trip was obtained, and what made Rangi especially angry was that the diplomatic corps had not established its effective ties with the countries of Tiannanzhou at all. Looking at the thin dozen pages of inspection report materials in front of the table, this made the hopeful Rangie finally angry.

"Total... Mr. President, it's not that we don't want to make a breakthrough, it's a bit of a problem... I don't know why, but the five tribal nations we visited were very indifferent to our arrival. As soon as I heard that we were from Dongyanzhou, I immediately became vigilant. No matter how much we tried to convince us, they just wouldn't allow us to set foot in Tiannanzhou, and they almost used the army to expel us... If it weren't for this trip, our force would not be weak, and I am afraid that we would really have suffered heavy losses. These days, the behavior of the southern tribe is no different from that of bandits and robbers. A diplomat sweated profusely.

Another diplomat immediately added: "Yes! But we have learned some hidden facts through some means. It is speculated that the reason why these tribes reject us is, on the one hand, because of historical reasons, there is a certain antipathy towards our Dongyanzhou country. On the other hand, we suspect that there must be an extremely conservative superpower behind those small tribal states, and perhaps this big power has some special constraints on these small tribal states, which makes them not easily interact with other countries. Otherwise, our sincerity is not untrue, and the name of Dongyanzhou is not insignificant, and no country would refuse to accept a diplomatic mission from afar..."

"Yes, yes, yes! That's why! We have also collected some information, as if in history, there have been wars between the neighboring countries of Tiannan Continent and Dongyan Continent. But this was a long time ago, I'm afraid it can be traced back thousands of years ago, right? At that time, Tiannanzhou did not have a decent big force, and the development level of the Xiuzhen civilization was not as good as that of the countries of Dongyanzhou, so it must have suffered a lot of losses in the war. With this kind of historical grievance, that's why this is such an attitude towards us as the envoys from Dongyanzhou, right?"

One by one, the three diplomats explained to Rangi, but by this time their sweat had soaked their clothes, and they didn't know if they could pass the analysis, and they kept cursing the small tribal nations that stood in their way.

Rangi was so angry, and naturally he had a reason. Since the successful launch of satellites and the establishment of a global satellite network two years ago, the Blue Star Kingdom has launched a comprehensive diplomatic exploration operation, and the first target selected is the nearest Tiannanzhou countries. Because according to the ancient records of the countries of Dongyanzhou in the past, Tiannan Prefecture is the closest continent separated from Dongyanzhou, and there is only a distance of thousands of miles between them, although it is blocked by dense primeval forests and steep mountain ranges, but compared with other continents, this barrier is much easier to break through. In addition, several tribal states in the southwest of Dongyanzhou, which were once subject states of the Chu State, have dealt with several small tribal states in the northeast of Tiannan Prefecture in history. It is said that when the Chu State conquered the southern tribal vassal states, it defeated the Chiyou tribe, the largest tribe that ruled the south of Dongyanzhou, and drove it to Tiannan Prefecture.

Nowadays, the Blue Star Country is eager to develop diplomatic contacts with the outside world, on the one hand, it is the need for the country's external exploration, and on the other hand, it is the need for the economic growth of the Blue Star Country. After more than 20 years of post-war development, the economic development of the Blue Star Country has made unprecedented achievements, and various social commodities have become more and more abundant, in addition to meeting the huge domestic demand, it has also been exported to a large number of countries in Dongyanzhou. The vigorous development of foreign export trade has greatly stimulated the economic prosperity of the Blue Star Country, and also driven the domestic capital to continue to expand and flow outward to open up huge overseas markets. But after all, the countries of Dongyanzhou have a limited population, and there is a huge shortcoming, that is, the lack of cultivation resources. The Blue Star Country's national cultivation has created the amazing achievements of almost everyone in the Blue Star Country cultivating and mastering cultivation skills, but it has also made the country's demand for spiritual stones and other cultivation resources reach an unprecedented height, which naturally forces the Blue New Country to continue to develop externally, and the rumored Tiannanzhou, which is rich in resources, has of course become the first goal of the Blue Star Country's external development.

Unexpectedly, a diplomatic action that had been carefully planned for more than a year was poured with a bucket of cold water, which of course made the hopeful Rangi extremely dissatisfied.

The venue was silent for a while, and no one dared to speak out, and a kind old man sitting next to Rangi finally spoke: "Mr. President, Chief Peyton, although they have not achieved much in this investigation, after all, they have made a good start, how can we say that there are still some achievements, at least we know that these countries in Tiannanzhou do not welcome our Dongyanzhou! Not to mention that Peyton and they have also obtained a lot of geographical information, discovered several places where there may be rich mineral resources, and also explored the most convenient passage from Chu State to Tiannanzhou... We have also gone through a lot of hardships and dangers along the way, and it is not easy to achieve results without merit and hard work! We cannot expect too much from them all at once. ”

The old man who spoke was none other than Zhang Tiande, who had served as the Minister of Defense of the Blue Star Country and the former leader of the Southern Gui Kingdom Shi Clan Alliance. He was over 100 years old, and he did not take a back seat, but succeeded Arden as the chairman of the Blue Star Parliament, after all, the Blue Star Clan needs a person who is on their side and has a deep background to support the political situation, and Zhang Tiande, who is loyal and experienced, is naturally the best candidate to assist Rangie.

Hearing Zhang Tiande's words, Rankie's face was a little better, he flipped through the report on the table again, but the corner of his eyes quietly glanced at the two ordinarily dressed participants sitting in a corner of the venue, with a hint of consultation in his eyes.

The two participants were a man and a woman, and their faces looked ordinary, and they did not have the spiritual pressure aura unique to strong monks. They sat quietly in a corner of the room, looking no different from the average staff member, and did not attract more attention from the rest of the room.

Seeing that the two of them did not react, Rangi sighed lightly in his heart, and then said slowly to the three diplomats opposite: "Okay! What the elder said is also reasonable, although you can't even enter the other party's country this time, at least you have done a lot of work, this time, forget it! You go back and think about a way! See if you can start from other aspects and prepare for the next diplomatic breakthrough." ”

Hearing Rankie's words, the three diplomats hurriedly nodded yes as if they were on the verge of amnesty, and at the same time glanced at Zhang Tiande gratefully, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and waited for Rankie to signal that the meeting could end, and then hurriedly left.

After the meeting ended, Rangi walked irritably into a small conference room on one side of the room. He sat alone inside, poring over a new report on the table, when another door to the conference room slowly opened, and two figures quietly walked in, a man and a woman who had just sat quietly in a corner of the room.

Seeing the two of them appear, Rangie quickly stood up and exclaimed excitedly, "Godfather, Aunt Sonia!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light suddenly appeared on the two people who walked in, and their figures and faces immediately changed, from two people who looked ordinary anymore to the appearance of Linda and Sonya.

"Rangie, how do you look like a president, remember, be steady!" Sonia unceremoniously pointed at Rankie as soon as she opened her mouth, not giving any face to the top power of the current Blue Star Country.

Rangie didn't care about the size of hahaha, and stepped forward to make an eager hug with the two.

"Why, do you think this is so tricky, do you have to ask us old fellows to help?" asked Linda with a grin as soon as she sat down. He called himself an old fellow, but because of his cultivation, his face was similar to that of a young man in his twenties and thirties.

Rangie smiled and said, "Hmm... Although my attitude towards Peyton and them was a little too much at the meeting just now, it was mainly for the rest of the Congress. After all, we did spend a lot of money this time, and in order to open a safe passage along the way, the expedition team encountered many powerful monsters and lost a lot of manpower, but the result was like this. If you don't analyze it well, make it look angry, and make Congress think that we are playing with money, I am afraid that next time it will not be easy for them to approve the next step of the operation. However, Peyton and the others did bring back a lot of useful information this time, and the reason why those countries rejected us was that the most important thing was that they had a lot to do with the Chiyou tribe back then, which was why we were prejudiced against the people of Dongyanzhou. However, these small tribal countries are really stubborn, and after so many years, they still remember this feud? I am afraid that the powerful forces behind them are also an important factor. According to Peggy, the religion of the nation claims that its kingdom is the center of the world, and that all other nations are barbarian states that only by converting to their state religion can they be permanently safed and protected... Well... It does sound like a lie... Therefore, they have adopted this policy of closing the country to the rest of the world in order to prevent the people from knowing the real situation in other countries, and more importantly, to put an end to diplomatic exchanges with other countries, and this is the biggest problem facing us at the moment. ”

"If that's the case, then this big force is really reluctant to contact the outside world. It is estimated that the cultivation force in this country is probably not so strong, otherwise it would not use the religious situation to confuse ordinary people. If it's like the Xiuzhen royal clan in the countries of Dongyan Continent in the past, then what do you need to consider the thoughts of ordinary people? This is really interesting!" Linda said thoughtfully after listening to Rangi's words.

Rangie was stunned for a moment, his eyes lit up, and he said with a slight exclamation: "Godfather! How do you know! That's right! Peyton did report that most of the ordinary soldiers of these countries were not monks, and their combat effectiveness was much weaker than that of the monks and soldiers of the countries of Dongyan Continent before. But there are also some special soldiers whose strength is amazing, as if they have cultivated some kind of alchemy, and some powerful ones are estimated to be able to compete with ordinary realm cultivators. But that's only the extent of it? The combat effectiveness of the armies of those small tribal countries is really not flattering. ”

"Alchemy? No wonder this is the case! If ordinary people can confront the cultivators through the cultivation of the alchemy technique, then the cultivators of the ruling class will have to find a way to consolidate their position, and the cultivation civilization of the countries of Tiannan Continent should not be very developed, otherwise those cultivators will not be afraid of the mere body cultivators. No wonder such a religion was invented, it turned out to be so that these ordinary alchemists would willingly obey them. However, the spirit stone resources needed to cultivate the body refining technique can be no less than the resources required by ordinary monks, and if you look at it this way, the cultivation resources that this Tiannanzhou has are definitely quite a lot!"

Sonia on the side asked Rangi, "Since this is the case, do you think of any good way to open their country?

Rangie scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Of course you can't use force. Although the Xiuzhen civilization in Tiannanzhou is not very developed, after all, the size is there, and it is united under a super force, and the overall strength should not be underestimated, and it is unrealistic to adopt force. But if you can't open the situation by peaceful means... To tell you the truth, I really can't do anything now! That's why I have to ask two elders to help!"

Hearing Rankie's crisp words, Linda and Sonia couldn't help but roll their eyes. After thinking about it for a while, the two met and smiled, and then Lin Da said: "Okay! This matter is related to the success or failure of China's diplomatic strategy, whether it is as a rotating member of the board of supervisors or your godfather, you cannot leave it alone. This time, I'll help you!"

When Rangi heard this, his face suddenly showed joy, but after thinking about it carefully, he hurriedly asked with concern: "Godfather, what are you going to do? Do you use strong means? Although Tiannanzhou may not have a super strong person like you, as a continent with a long history, there are still a lot of various means to protect the country? Don't take too much risk!"

Linda smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry! To deal with that kind of country, it is necessary to apply both soft and hard. This time, I will sacrifice it for the sake of the prosperity of the Blue Star Country!"
