"Lord of the Kingdom, let me introduce you, this is Tang Ping, the Duke of Pingguo from the Eastern Soil Tang Dynasty."

In one of the royal courtyards where Sri Buddha died, Barab introduced Tang Ping to the lord of Sri Buddha's death.

As a multi-island nation, Sri Buddha had royal and aristocratic residences on many islands throughout the South Seas.

In Tang Ping's view, it is similar to those luxury hotels in the Maldives, an island is a hotel, but here it is an island and an annex.

Originally, I thought that Barab would take him to meet the lord of the kingdom for a long time, but I didn't expect to set off from Barab's Dama Island, and the boat would only take three days to arrive at this royal palace, and the lord of the kingdom where Sri Buddha died.

The island is called Ice Spring Island, and the origin of the name is that there is a very cool spring in the middle of the island, and the deceased lord of Sri Buddha often runs here to escape the heat.

"I've seen the lord of the kingdom!" Tang Ping followed the etiquette of Sri Buddha's death in this Buddha country, and folded his hands together and bowed.

This lord is not very old, and Tang Ping estimates that he may be in his early thirties.

"Pingguo Gong doesn't need to be polite, I heard my uncle say that you have a wisdom root, but you are a person with great magical powers, but can you have such a thing?"

Tang Ping didn't know how this Barab bragged about himself to the Lord of the Deceased Kingdom of Sri Buddha, but of course he wouldn't directly say that there was no such thing, so he just smiled and said, "Lord Barab said that he was laughing, where do I have any wisdom? It's just that it's a little different from the others."

There are not even two identical leaves in this world, how can there be the same person, so Tang Ping felt that what he said was completely true.

But in the ears of the lord of the country where Sri Buddha died, it was naturally different, and the return of Barabu praised Tang Ping.

It is said that Tang Ping has mastered the power of thunder and lightning, and can use invisible thunder and lightning to split the flagpole, and can also use thunder and lightning to heat the pot without flames.

It can also save dead people who have stopped their heartbeat.

Anyway, Balabala praised it, and said that Tang Ping was humble and polite, and he was the most generous to his friends.

You must know that the most unbearable thing for these nobles in these countries in Nanyang is the scorching heat of more than 30 degrees almost every day.

In this era, there was no air conditioning, and at most the servants were allowed to fan themselves to cool down, and only the deceased lord of Sri Buddha had the conditions to find such an extremely rare ice spring to escape the heat.

So now that Ba Rabu has obtained the method of making ice, then he can increase his income by just making ice in Nanyang every year and selling it to other big nobles around him.

Eating people with a short mouth and soft hands has such a big benefit from Tang Ping, Ba Rabu naturally wants to say good things for Tang Ping.

And he felt that, as Tang Ping said, the existence of the Great Wei Kingdom was not necessarily a good thing for the death of Sri Buddha in Nanyang, and after Zhen Xiong gained a firm foothold in the future, he would definitely conflict with the death of Sri Buddha.

Instead of that, it is better to join forces with Datang now to solve the Great Wei Kingdom and get rid of future troubles!

He also got angry with the deceased lord of Sri Buddha in advance, so after chatting for a few words, the deceased lord of Sri Buddha said, "I already know the intention of the Duke of Ping, but my country is now in an alliance with the Great Wei, if we suddenly turn against the Great Wei and join forces with your Great Tang to deal with the Great Wei State, and it will be spread out in the future, won't we be called treacherous?"

This is also true or wrong, it is said that it is an alliance, but if the Tang Dynasty can really destroy the Great Wei in one fell swoop, will anyone in this Nanyang dare to come out and ask for justice for the Great Wei?

The friendship between countries is secondary, and the most important thing is the interests.

And when the lord of Sri Buddha said this now, he actually wanted to talk to Tang Ping about the benefits.

Tang Ping smiled slightly and said, "I heard that Zhen Xiong also signed a trade agreement with the lord of the country, which said that he would trade a lot of glass mirrors and perfumes with Sri Buddha, but is there such a thing?"

"But there is such a thing!" The deceased lord of Sri Buddha frowned and glanced at Barab, this was blaming him for telling Tang Ping such a thing.

Eight Rakbu

With a smile: "Lord of the Kingdom, I didn't plan to tell Ping Guogong about this, but later I learned that Zhen Xiong couldn't do it at all!"

"Why?" The deceased lord of Sri Buddha was a little puzzled.

"Otherwise, the lord of the country should first take a look at the gift prepared by the prince of Ping Guo for the lord of the country!"

Barab glanced at Tang Ping, Tang Ping nodded, then pressed the headset and said, "Send me the gift to the lord of the country."

Soon, a few of Tang Ping's subordinates walked in carrying some things.

The first few people seemed to be carrying something almost two meters high and standing on the ground, but it was covered with a big red silk, so they couldn't see what was inside.

"Lord, please!" Tang Ping raised his hand, and then the deceased lord of Sri Buddha uncovered the red silk on it with curiosity.

"Hiss ......" was mentally prepared, and he felt that Tang Ping would not be too surprised by what he sent, but he still gasped.

Because under the red silk, there is a two-meter-high glass Buddha statue.

"This ...... This ......."

This is not over, and the back of Ba Rab pulled down another piece of red silk, and below it was a glass mirror more than one person high.

And then there's a case of perfumes of all sorts of flavors.

They have dominated the South Seas for many years, and they are rich in all kinds of precious wood, spices and other specialties, plus the climate is suitable for many tropical crops and the vast sea to provide food, so Sri Buddha is also quite rich.

Their dealings with Da Wei were mainly the purchase of various luxury goods.

However, the glass mirror that Da Wei sold to them was the size of a basin, and in this way, it could only be bought at a very high price after the death of Sri Buddha.

And now in front of him, not to mention the glass Buddha statue, even this mirror he thinks can be regarded as a national treasure.

"Lord, in fact, the glass mirror and these perfumes that Zhen Xiong bought for us were all bought from Datang when he was in Dongyue, and then resold them to us."

"Now that Ping Guogong is here, let's do these businesses directly with Datang in the future, and Ping Guogong has said that it is definitely cheaper than the original one in terms of price."

This was when Ba Rabu came to Tang Ping's ship, and then he was shocked when he saw the tall dressing mirror on Tang Ping's boat, and he inadvertently told them about the transaction between them and Da Wei, and then Tang Ping keenly seized this opportunity.

Tang Ping sent an order back to disperse the warships guarding the Ryukyus, blocking the Hoshima Strait and the eastern shipping lane, and temporarily prohibiting the East Vietnamese merchants from doing business with Zhen Xiong.

Those merchants didn't dare to offend Tang Ping, after all, a lot of things were imported from the Tang Dynasty, and Tang Ping was willing to buy the goods on their ships at a high price, and they could unload the things directly in the Ryukyus and drive them back to Dongyue, and then go to Nanyang to sell them after a while, and they would not lose anything.

In this way, the trade between Zhen Xiong and Dongyue was basically temporarily cut off, and he naturally had no way to deliver goods to Sri Buddha.

"And there are many good things in Datang, many of which Zhen Xiong can't buy, and Ping Guogong is also willing to cooperate with us."

However, at this time, the deceased lord of Sri Buddha did not listen to the words of Barabu at all, but looked at the Buddha statue with his hands folded and said, "The Buddha's heart is clear, the Buddha's heart is clear! Today I finally understood!"

Tang Ping didn't know what he understood, but when he came, he knew that Sri Buddha was a Buddhist country on the Nanyang side, and he thought that if he had to deal with it, he would naturally give gifts to his liking, so he made such a Buddha statue.

At this time, the lord of the deceased Sri Buddha took Tang Ping's hand and said, "Ping Guo Gong really has a wisdom root, since it was my Buddha who guided Ping Guo Gong to come to my Sri Buddha to pass away, then naturally he has his reason. I, Sri Buddha, am willing to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty!"

Tang Ping didn't expect it to be so smooth this time, just gave a gift, and the negotiation was over?

When he came, he was ready to go to great lengths to convince the other party, but he didn't expect it to be so simple when it came to an end.

He asked someone to send his own letter, and then took out a letter of state that Li Shimin gave him when he came out, which stated that outside, Tang Ping could represent the entire Da with full powers

Tang, the decision he made was the decision of Datang.

Here, the deceased lord of Sri Buddha also asked someone to write a covenant, and then the two of them stamped their own seals, and the covenant was completed.

Then the lord of Sri Buddha said to Barab:

"Uncle, I want to trouble you to go and urge the Great Wei Kingdom, but my country has even paid the advance payment, when are they going to send this first batch of goods?"

Now that we know that the trade route between the Great Wei State and Dongyue has been cut off, the trade contract signed by the Great Wei and Sri Buddha at that time will naturally not be completed.

And the alliance between the two countries was originally based on this trade, and now if the Great Wei State breaks the treaty first, then Sri Buddha will defect after his death, but he will stand on the moral high ground.

It can only be said that this lord of the country who can become the death of Sri Buddha is not so simple, in one sentence, the death of Sri Buddha is taken out of the treacherous breach of the contract, and it becomes that the Great Wei does not abide by the contract.

"Hahaha, don't worry, the lord of the country, I will send someone over in a while."

"To be tough, we Sri Buddha are willing to do business sincerely, but it's not so easy to fool."

The lord of Sri Buddha's death can't forget the time when the Great Wei Navy came, and they Sri Buddha died and suffered a loss, and at that time they were indeed inferior to the other party in terms of naval strength, so they could only swallow their anger.

And now that Tang Ping is here, the situation has changed.

As long as he can defeat the Great Wei Navy, then the power of the Great Wei on land is completely a small dish in the eyes of Sri Buddha, a turtle in an urn, so there is no need to worry about it.

Taking a step back, even if Tang Ping bragged about it, as a result, he did not fight the Great Wei Navy, and when Sri Buddha died, he would see the opportunity to act.

If the Great Wei Navy was badly damaged, then they would take advantage of his illness to kill him.

If Tang Ping is too vegetable, the Great Wei Navy will not hurt the muscles and bones, and they will not suffer a loss when Sri Buddha dies, and then they will complete the transaction with the Great Wei and continue to maintain the alliance relationship.

Then the deceased lord of Sri Buddha left Tang Ping to dine with him, and asked him to stay for a few days, as long as the reply from Da Wei arrived, Tang Ping could do it.

Now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!
