[133] Frustrated
"Understood. Changqin also smiled, and then hurriedly asked with a look of joy on his face: "Did General Xiao agree to cooperate?"
Xiao Shizhu didn't answer in a hurry, but looked at the teacup in his hand, saw that the cup of water was at the bottom, and shouted outside the door: "Qian'er, make another cup for the prince." ”。 Immediately, the topic was easily opened.
Xiao Shizhu knew that what he was going to talk about later was the important thing, so he began to play relaxed.
"No. The ghost Qian'er outside the door answered, hurriedly entered the flower room, and took Changqin's teacup away. Xiao Shizhu got up, brought a bonsai of his own, handed it to Changqin, and asked unhurriedly: "Prince, look at it, how is this bonsai?"
"Oh, General Xiao. Changqin, who was already anxious, stomped his feet in a hurry and said, "This business hasn't been talked about yet?
Defeating Gonggong, that is his father's lifelong wish, but he can't say it explicitly, and watching Xiao Shizhu stop suddenly halfway through talking, and calmly invite him to see what bonsai, can Changqin not be in a hurry?
But how could all this escape Xiao Shizhu's eyes, and he already knew the anxiety that Changqin was deliberately hiding, and it was precisely because the other party was in a hurry that he deliberately did not hurry.
"As long as the prince likes it, this bonsai will be given to you. Xiao Shizhu looked at the anxious smile on his face and said, "If the prince doesn't like it, we'll change another pot." Last time I went to Zhu Rongguo, you treated me very well. I have taken good care of the flowers and plants in this flower room, and I have to give you a pot as a thank you gift for you to enjoy. ”。
And as soon as the ghost mother saw Xiao Shizhu's smile full of sincerity, she knew that he was holding back some bad water again. Xiao Shizhu is like this, the more sincere he laughs, the more insincere it is.
So he also looked at Changqin with a smile, and echoed: "Yes, the courtesy is light and affectionate, and the prince must accept this return gift." ”。
As soon as Changqin heard this, he knew that if he said he didn't like it, the bonsai would continue to change, and he didn't know when he would be able to continue to talk about business, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, this bonsai is good, I like this bonsai very much." ”。 In fact, in the past pastime projects, he only understood the rhythm of music, how could he understand flowers and plants, whether it was good or bad, and he also followed Xiao Shizhu's words.
"I've got you. Xiao Shizhu said, and stuffed the bonsai into his hand without hesitation.
"Thank you very much. Changqin also said politely and took the bonsai.
"Since the crown prince has given me a gift, I can agree to cooperate. Xiao Shizhu sat on the rattan chair again and said, "But I want to use this bonsai to talk to your country about the conditions." ”。 When she finished speaking, Ghost Qian'er just re-brewed tea and brought it in.
"General, please. Changqin put down the bonsai and took the teacup, but his eyes involuntarily stayed on Ghost Qian'er's face for a few more moments.
"This is the first?" Xiao Shizhu waved his hand, signaled Ghost Qian'er to step back, and said thoughtfully: "Fight this battle according to my method, and at the same time use you as the liaison officer between my country and your country." ”。
"Of course this is possible, and this prince can promise you now. Changqin smiled, I thought it was something difficult, but I never thought that Xiao Shizhu said such a simple condition, and while he was happy, he was a little nervous and relaxed all of a sudden. What's more, Xiao Shizhu's plan is perfect, how can he not agree.
As everyone knows, Xiao Shizhu is good at making things easy first and then making them difficult, not only to do things, but also to talk about conditions. This is a simple thing, which is nothing more than to let him relax and relax, and not be so nervous, so that the difficult things in the future will be relatively easy to talk about.
"Second, if we help you send troops to attack the Communist Workers' Country, what good will it be?" Xiao Shizhu Erlang asked again.
"There are five counties in the Communist Labor State, namely the five departments of the east, west, south, north and middle, Yankong, Juxing, Jiangmo and Fengdu, and Chutian County in the middle. Changqin saw that he finally got back to the topic, and hurriedly smiled, he knew that Xiao Shizhu was a master who could not afford to be profitable, so he had already expected that the other party would ask this question, so he thought of the reward in advance, and when he heard this, he said: "After taking the Gonggong Country, my country promises to bring the two counties of Yankong County in the east and Jiangmo County in the south under the rule of the Ghost Mother Country. ”。 、
"Too little. Xiao Shizhu put away his smile when he heard this, and thought that an old rich man's eyes would shine like seeing gold and silver treasures, and he said categorically: "We still want Chutian County." ”。
His voice was not loud, but it made Changqin slightly stunned and startled, that Chutian County is the political and military center of the Communist Workers' Country, and Yuque City, the capital of the Communist Workers' Country, is in this county. The jewels and treasures that he had collected over the years, as well as his treasury and food, were all in this city. Whoever takes this county is equal to those treasures and money, all of which belong to them; Xiao Shizhu is simply a lion's mouth.
Not only that, but Nachutian County is surrounded by mountains on all sides, forming a natural barrier, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is a big river in the middle, called Yuqu River, which shuttles through the entire Chutian County. The tributaries of the Yuqu River are densely spread throughout the county, moistening Chutian. The water network in the county is connected vertically and horizontally, and the lakes are densely packed and connected, so Chutian County is also called "the county of a thousand lakes". The closer it is to the central part of Chutian County, there are more and more plain areas, and the precipitation in this county is abundant, so the climate is humid, making Chutian County a rich place rich in fish and rice.
Such a good territory, if it is given to Zhu Rongguo, then the ghost mother country will lose a lot. Xiao Shizhu naturally didn't want to suffer a loss, a large piece of fat but not greasy meat was placed in front of him, and it was about to be delivered to his mouth, how could he fight for a bite before he was willing to give up;
"Hehe, General Xiao has a lot of appetite. After a while, Changqin laughed, and then asked coldly: "In this way, the ghost mother country has taken the three counties, how many soldiers and horses does the general plan to send?" The air around him instantly froze, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
"How many soldiers and horses do you think I am worth? How many soldiers and horses are my soldiers of the Xiao family army who can at least fight one against five are worth?" Xiao Shizhu was not to be outdone, his questioning gaze met the cold light and a trace of anger that burst out of Changqin's eyes, and asked word by word: "The combat effectiveness of my Xiao family army, I guess the prince has also heard of it, right?"
Hearing this, Changqin's eyes turned into a stunned, a puff of rough air erupted from his nose, and his fingers trembled slightly; Xiao Shizhu was right, at the beginning, his Xiao family's army was only 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he could also defeat the joint forces of Gonggong and Zhurong, and more than 100,000 soldiers and horses were holding their heads and running around, although they also had the advantage of geographical advantages, but it can be seen that their combat effectiveness is almost unmatched in Xuanyanzhou. Subsequently, on the Black Dragon Island, it was even more majestic, and the prestige of the ten battles and ten victories had spread all over Xuanyan Continent.
If it were without the help of Xiao Jiajun, Zhu Rongguo would be lucky enough to win the Gonggong Country, and he would have suffered heavy casualties, and it would be difficult to recover from the decline in national strength for hundreds of years, and it was inevitable that the people would work hard.
But this battle can't be fought, after all, defeating Gonggong again, that is Zhu Rong's lifelong wish, so although Changqin is angry at Xiao Shizhu's danger, he has nothing to do with Xiao Shizhu. The ghost mother became happier and more excited the more she watched, and she had long forgotten the grievances brought to her by Xiao Shizhu's concubine. If it weren't for giving Changqin a little thin noodles, she really wanted to applaud her husband's rebuttal loudly and applauded.
"Don't be angry, prince, I'm not that kind of arrogant ghost. Xiao Shizhu saw that Changqin was angry, regardless of the identity of the diplomatic ambassador, he suddenly sulked, this was the first time he saw Changqin so gaffe, his heart secretly rejoiced, but he said in a calmer tone: "If you want our country to want Chutian County, it's easy to discuss, why are you in a hurry?"
When Changqin heard this, as if the person who fell into the water saw a life-saving straw, he hurriedly put away his faint anger and said urgently: "Is this true?"
"Seriously, I lied to you and you didn't give me a reward, what's wrong with taking it seriously. Xiao Shizhu laughed and said, "As long as your country supplies our army with salaries, grain and grass, fierce fire oil and war ships during the war, and you have to give as much fierce fire oil as we want, then I don't want this Chutian County." In exchange, I will definitely take the Communists for you. ”。
"General, this is going to take advantage of both ends. Changqin's smile froze for a moment.
"The same cannot be said. Xiao Shizhu was not frightened, and said with a calm smile: "Rich people invite short-term workers to work, and they will give three melons and two dates when they are finished, and they will not be in arrears." What's more, I am a soldier, not a short-term worker, and the prince is unwilling to pay or give land, so do you want me and my soldiers to work for you for nothing?"
The three words that are not impatient or impatient, not only can Changqin be unable to refute, he takes the initiative to become passive, and is constrained everywhere, but the other party who said it got up from the chair, but after being speechless for a long time, he sat down down, and his face was filled with frustration, which was still frustration.
In addition to his loss, he couldn't help but be suspicious in his heart: "This Xiao Shizhu ghost is not very old, how can he do things so sophisticated, and he is impeccable?" But I don't know that Xiao Shizhu is a ghost, but when he was still in the world, he was lonely and ruthless in the face of many indifference and ruthlessness in the world.
From the human world to the underworld, he grew up in a greenhouse, and Changqin, who has never stopped eating and drinking, doesn't know why, let alone understands. Therefore, at most, he can only be a ghost who governs the country and the people, but he cannot become a hero or a hero.
Changqin, who couldn't think of any countermeasures for a while, had to get up again, saluted and said gloomily: "General Xiao, ghost mother, please let Prince Rong Ben think about it again, and we will talk about it again." ”。
"The prince is free. Xiao Shizhu smiled and said generously: "Before we talk, you can live with peace of mind, and the expenses for food, accommodation and play are all counted on my head, so you don't have to be polite to me." ”。
"Hmm. Changqin answered, turned away with a frustrated face.
