"Hehe, the old man is very pleased that you have such ambitions, one more day to live."

Zhang Yang sat next to the teacher's wheelchair, looking at the Qinling Mountains in the distance, and the end of the mountains seemed to be the end of the world.

On the day of the negotiations, Lishan deliberately cleaned the village very clean.

Xiao Hui and Xiao Wu each held a bunch of pamphlets and walked into the room where they were going to negotiate next.

At that time, there will be many important people from the DPRK and China sitting here.

Xiao Hui put these booklets in front of each seat, and Xiao Wu boiled water on the side and did some light cleaning.

Zhang Yang took Li Tai, Shangguan Yi, and Wu Shi Tong to stand at the entrance of the village.

This time Li Xiaogong did not come to the negotiation after all, he has always had the intention to avoid His Majesty.

Mr. Ouyang Xun still has to teach the children to read and write on weekdays, and now he can't put his heart and soul into it.

However, Li Yuan did not shirk it, his old man was idle, and said that he could come and see.

A group of officers and soldiers escorted the carriages, and the first to arrive in front of them were General Wei Chigong and General Qin Qiong.

Zhang Yang saluted with Li Tai, Shangguan Yi, and Wu Shi Tong.

Wei Chigong looked at a few people: "Just the four of you?" ”

Zhang Yang explained: "There are only four people in charge of Lishan's production scheduling. ”

Wei Chigong smiled coldly and walked into the house.

Qin Qiong turned over and dismounted without saying a word, patted Zhang Yang's shoulder to show pertinence, and walked into the conference room of this negotiation under the guidance of His Royal Highness King Wei.

Then came the officials of the court, Zhang Yang now understands General Wei Chi's words, just the four of you? It's that there aren't enough people negotiating in Lishan.

Because when I looked up, there were a lot of people coming, in addition to Zheng Gong, Zhao Guogong, Fang Xiang, Chu Suiliang, Tang Shanzhi, Cen Wenwen, as well as Ma Zhou, Zhang Xingcheng, Liu Xun, this is the entire Zhongshu Province has been brought?

Zhang Yang's face was bitter, and he could only greet everyone with a polite smile.

Finally, a more luxurious car stopped in front of him, Zhang Yang waved away the dust in front of him, coughed his throat, and saw that it was His Majesty who got out of the carriage.

"I've seen Your Majesty!" Zhang Yang took Shangguan Yi and saluted with Wu Shi Tong.

Li Shimin nodded, "Are you ready?" ”

Zhang Yang replied: "Ready." ”

Li Shimin took a deep breath and walked quickly to the conference room, "Then let's start." ”

Not long after, Li Yuan also came, and after everyone greeted and saluted, they sat down.

This Emperor Li Yuan sat on the upper seat with His Majesty, and then down were Fang Xiang and Zheng Gong, as well as Wei Chigong and General Qin Qiong.

After that, Zhao Guogong and a group of civil officials.

Zhang Yang sat in the second seat, facing the eldest grandson Wuji and others in front of him: "This is the prerequisite for this negotiation in Lishan, everything is written in the booklet, you can take a look at it first." ”

As he spoke, Zhang Yang took the tea handed by Xiao Wu again, took a sip and put the tea on the table in front of him.

The people in the DPRK and China were surprised by the novelty of this negotiation, and what was new was this very unique long table and the arrangement of the positions of the people.

The eldest grandson Wuji finished reading the pages written in the booklet and put it down.

Seeing that everyone also put down the booklet, they talked in a low voice.

Zhang Yang then spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, the requirements of our Lishan have been written in the booklet, in the spirit of communication between our two sides, Lishan observes the situation of the increase in the price of goods and the exchange of money in Chang'an City, I want to confirm first, in the future, Lishan will help Sheji, whether the court will always be able to accept it." ”

Fang Xuanling nodded and said with a smile: "Naturally, I accept it." ”

"Hmm."

Zhang Yang nodded and looked at Shangguanyi and the others, and when he saw that everyone nodded, he took another sip of tea, looked solemn, and continued: "If this meeting goes well, I hope you can all make a bet on this contract, and promise not to change or cancel it in the future." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji nodded and said, "Okay, let's take a look at the conditions of Lishan." ”

Zhang Yang gave Xiao Wu a look, and another booklet was handed out, and everyone opened it to look at the contents, and there was another discussion.

The sound of rustling and chattering in the room is constant.

Outside the door, Li Jing and Zhang Gongjin were sitting here, both of them waiting for the result of a negotiation.

"How's the pharmacist's leg injury?"

Li Jing smiled: "If it weren't for a rainy day, it wouldn't be a big problem." ”

Back then, both of them were together in the northern expedition to the Turks, and remembered that they were freezing in the north at that time, and they looked at each other and smiled.

Zhang Gongjin sat in a wheelchair and whispered: "Speaking of which, Zhang Yang's disciple was brought by Zhao Guogong. ”

Li Jing leaned against the edge of the door and looked around, at this time, no one could disturb the court discussion in Lishan this time.

"You should be happy to have such a disciple."

Zhang Gongjin shook his head and said, "This kid has a lot of things in his heart. ”

Li Jing asked, "Didn't tell you?" ”

"Well, the pharmacist should also understand, how can the things hidden in the heart be easily said, and even if they are said, how can they know whether it is true or false."

"It seems that you don't know this disciple either."

Inside the house, it was Shangguanyi's turn to speak, and he got up and saluted first, "There are six articles in the contract. ”

Tang Shanzhi asked, "So we have to choose one of them?" ”

Shangguan Yi said with a smile: "No, this is the premise of mutual cooperation between Lishan and the court in the future, this is not to choose one of them, but the premise of cooperation in the future, the so-called premise, all these six promises can be said in the future." ”

Hearing this, Tang Shanzhi's eyes were a little annoyed.

Shangguan Yi held the booklet in his hand and said loudly: "First of all, the DPRK and China need to immediately put on an attitude and come up with a notice, Lishan is a production collective, and does not directly participate in the sale. ”

Zhang Xingcheng patted the table, "Shangguan Yi? Your father is Shangguan Hong? ”

"Exactly."

The other party asked about his life experience, Shangguan Yi's expression was not very good-looking, and he didn't like others to talk about his father.

Liu Xun asked: "Lishan produces goods and sells them, isn't this an act of buying and selling?" How can you say that you are not involved in buying and selling? ”

Shangguan Yi explained: "Lishan will set up an exchange in Chang'an City, and the future goods will be sold directly through the trading place set up in the city by Lishan, which we call wholesale." ”

"Is there a difference?"

"Yes, Lishan, as the main body, does not directly participate in the transaction in Chang'an City, but the wholesale can be directly arranged by the DPRK and China, which means that the goods are out of Lishan, and the money and goods are cleared, as for how to arrange it later, it is not within the scope of Lishan's responsibility."

There was a burst of discussion among the people, and everyone looked embarrassed, hearing such a strange way for the first time.

These six premises alone make people's scalps tight, and the first one alone is so difficult to do, and everyone's discussion is getting louder and louder.

Fang Xuanling took the contract in his hand, his expression was solemn, his eyes looked at Zhang Yang, this young Marquis of Lishan County looked relaxed, and he still looked relaxed in the face of so many people in Zhongshu Province.

Originally, for this conversation, the DPRK and China had already prepared a lot, and they didn't want Zhang Yang's premise of cooperation to make everyone unable to do it.

What's more, it was originally intended to frustrate the sharpness of Lishan, but at this time, I can only look left and right and don't know how to decide.

Zheng Gong nodded and said, "If the wholesale office is an official of the DPRK and China, there is no problem with this one." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said again: "What does wholesale mean? ”

Xiao Wu came pushing a shelf, the bottom of the shelf was equipped with wooden wheels, and a wooden board was placed in the frame of the shelf, on which she drew the process of wholesale transactions, the specific process and steps of goods leaving Lishan and entering Chang'an City.

Shangguan Yi said again: "I don't know what a few people in Zhongshu Province think?" ”

Everyone was silent, but Fang Xuanling spoke: "The court can agree." ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Thank you for your understanding, we have made the right choice for the future, and we can reduce more misunderstandings and troubles in the future." ”

This is also a means for Lishan to avoid risks and exploit the loopholes of the Tang Law.

The eldest grandson Wuji stared at Zhang Yang with a very unhappy expression, he wanted to strip Lishan from the identity of the merchant, so as to continue to gain a foothold in the name of the production workshop, I don't know what he was planning in his heart.

It's a little unsettling.

Shangguan Yi also said: "The DPRK and China need to set up a supervision office to supervise the dispatch of goods in Chang'an City, supervise whether the merchants pay the goods tax on time and on demand, and strictly order the merchants not to increase and decrease prices significantly. ”

Everyone felt uncomfortable with the words and attitudes of the few people in Lishan in front of them.

In particular, with regard to the DPRK and China, it is necessary to build a new government office at this moment.

Wei Zheng stroked the beard and said: "The appointment of officials is also arranged by the DPRK and China? ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "What Zheng Gong said is good, how to arrange manpower in the DPRK and China, Lishan does not participate." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly asked, "What is your purpose?" ”

Zhang Yang drank tea with an indifferent expression, "It's very simple, to protect the interests of many residents in Chang'an City, the court must stand on the side of the masses and supervise the merchants together with the masses." ”

Tang Shanzhi suddenly smiled, "Was it the merchant who sued Lishan at the beginning, and the county marquis wanted revenge for favoritism?" ”

Zhang Yang bowed his head and said: "Brother Tang, you misunderstood, we didn't take those merchants' complaints to heart, and please don't look at Lishan with such a narrow gaze." ”

"But no matter how you look at it, it looks like Lishan is taking revenge for personal gain."

Li Tai, who was sitting in the corner, finally couldn't help it, he got up and said, "Tang Shanzhi, you don't want to get an inch!" ”

The other party said loudly: "Lishan is intervening in the government and dares to let the DPRK and China set up a new official residence, don't you have to make an inch?" ”

"Tang Shanzhi! You don't want to be presumptuous! The eldest grandson Wuji suddenly took a shot.

The scene finally fell silent.

The so-called chickens do not lay eggs, and there are many people who make trouble.

Just such a conversation, the DPRK and China brought so many people.

Is it to support the field, or to give Lishan a dismount?

Fang Xuanling said in a low voice: "Shangjia really needs to be monitored, and the DPRK will arrange it." ”

Zhang Yang nodded, "It's still the long-term view of Fang Xiang, which can not only protect the rights and interests of Lishan as a producer, but also ensure the interests of the people of Chang'an City, this is a great thing, we should celebrate this, it's past noon, you might as well have dinner in Lishan first, and then discuss it after dinner." ”

Two things were said in the morning, and the people from the entire Zhongshu Province in Lishan came.

The negotiation with Lishan was a tough battle, and at first everyone thought that this time would be very smooth, and they didn't want this Lishan to be so difficult.

Xiaohui walked out of the door, clapped her hands, and a pot of dishes was brought in.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is this year's seasonal vegetables, and it is also the result of the cultivation of crops in our Taifu Temple."

Everyone was also hungry, so they picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate one after another.

Zhang Yang personally went to pour tea for His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang, "Your Majesty, there is another rule in Lishan, that is, you are not allowed to drink alcohol when working, and discussion is also part of labor, so I won't drink alcohol today." ”

Li Yuan smiled: "Erlang, your complexion has been a lot worse recently. ”

Li Shimin sighed: "I often can't sleep well lately. ”

Looking at Zhang Yang, Li Shimin asked again: "Zhang Yang, what do you want?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Lishan needs to develop, development needs suitable soil, and the court needs perfect rules, also for the sake of the future."

"Are you saying that the court is not perfect enough?"

Zhang Yang sighed discouragedly: "Your Majesty, everything must keep pace with the times, right?" When the court is not adapting to the rapid growth of the Tang Dynasty, should it also make changes? ”

Li Shimin shook his head, "This is a matter of Zhongshu Province, not something that you, the Marquis of Lishan County, can participate in." ”

"That's why I asked Fang Xiang to lead a team to Lishan to negotiate."

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Yang whispered again: "Did Zhao Guogong make a promise to His Majesty on what terms?" He actually sat in the position of the chief envoy in this negotiation. ”

Li Shimin said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about the auxiliary machine targeting you because of the previous incident, besides, Zheng Gong and Xuan Ling are also there." ”

Zhang Yang watched the Manchu ministers sweeping the pots of dishes in a whirlwind, although the emperor said so, he still felt a little mustard in his heart.

In the village, Li Yue pushed a stroller and took her son to walk around the village.

Accompanied by two aunts, with some food and three oil-paper umbrellas.

The weather is sunny today, and the reason why I bring an umbrella is because my husband said that it may rain in the afternoon today.

Xiao Qingqing sat cross-legged on the bear's back, wearing the same light blue cloth as his mother.

"Mother, is Daddy fighting with those ministers in the court?"

Li Yue smiled: "Naturally not, your father is negotiating with the ministers of the DPRK and China for the future of our family." ”

She pouted and said, "Uncle Wei said that if the conversation is not good, there will be a fight, will Daddy fight with them." ”

Li Yue stroked her head, "Actually, your father is very good and has a lot of strength." ”

"There are many people on the other side, do you want Xiong Da to help Daddy." Xiao Qingqing looked down at the bear, and felt that it was not good, so he changed his words: "It's better to set up the artillery at the door, whoever dares to bully Daddy will blow him up." ”

The biggest headache is the artillery that her daughter misses, and since she blew up the walls of Chang'an City with that guy once, she has been thinking about wanting to play again.

Li Yue took her to the Red Whisk Girl.

"Aunt Redwhisk." Xiao Qingqing called.

The Red Whisk Girl hugged her and smiled, "It's early today." ”

Xiao Qingqing laughed in his arms, "What my mother said, it should be sooner rather than later." ”

Li Yue bowed slightly to the red whisk girl.

"Your husband is talking to those ministers?"

"Well, I don't know how it went?"

The Red Whisk Girl is a free and easy woman, and she said: "Whether it is your children or your husband, they are all very powerful. ”

The warm wind blew the hair on Li Yue's temples, and she looked at the big house where she was negotiating and whispered, "I hope it goes well." ”
