"It's not that I didn't expect the threat of the Hu people, but my country needs salt, and they just don't supply it anymore, and the war is also a last resort!"

"I have long said that our country's agricultural tools, weapons, and iron tools are all enough, so what's the use of your iron? Wipe your ass! You should trade something else! ”

"Our resources haven't been back to the country in the first place, so what can I exchange with you except for iron ore!?"

"Then why don't you surrender to me? Let me rebuild the glory of the Crane Kingdom! ”

"Oh, Shamir, you're not strong enough for me to submit to you, and besides, why can't my father's age be created by me?"

"Look, Shaquevans, your ambitions are exposed!"

"So what? Everyone has ambitions, not to mention that I am the head of a country! ”

"You stole my country!"

"That's what I'm capable of!"

"You...... You will be punished by God, you thief, and your father will not forgive you when you go to hell! ”

"Don't quarrel with each other!"

Song Che screamed to the ground: "Isn't it just the salt and iron trade, each for his own benefit?" Song has a good plan to make the two of you the richest countries in the Western Regions! ”

"Mr. Song, you can't joke nonsense."

Both kings were skeptical and expectant.

"No kidding, you'll know when I'm done." Song Che clapped his hands: "Bring it on!" ”

Nangong Yue walked into the house with Lu Jingxiang holding the steel knife sold from the bazaar before, the two faced each other, and Lu Jingxiang pulled out the sword.

"Your Majesty, this is the best steel knife bought from the best blacksmith shop in your bazaar, and in the hands of my guard is a sword made of the best steel of the girder, and now I will let them show what is harder."

Song Che nodded at the second daughter.

Nangong Yue wielded a sword, Lu Jingxiang swung a sword-

"Bang!"

The knife, as always, was broken in half.

Sha Quivan couldn't help but exclaim, "This ...... How can it be! ”

Shamir snickered on the side: "How is this impossible? Don't you still want to win the steel sword of the Great Liang Dynasty? ”

At this time, Song Che took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve and handed it to Shamir's eyes: "Your Majesty Shamir, this is the finest salt in the world today, how about you taste it?" ”

Shamir looked at the refined salt, sighed at its fineness, dipped a few grains with his fingers, and put it in his mouth for a moment: "Okay...... It's so salty! So pure! ”

Sha Kuiwen also came to taste a little, and what he got was also shocked, and he also took the opportunity to fall into the ground: "The best refined salt in the Hui country can't catch up with half of its deliciousness." ”

Song Che pointed to the sword in Lu Jingxiang's hand, shook the refined salt in his hand, and said loudly:

"The third reason for not fighting is the manufacturing method of ten thousand thousand steel and refined salt, and if your country learns these two technologies, it will be difficult to get rich."

The third card, the benefit card!

Two kings, eyes glowing. Who is going to have trouble with profits? Wasn't the original purpose of fighting a war to gain the interests of one's own country?

"Mr. Song, do you mean that as long as we don't fight, we will grant us these two technologies?" Sha Quivan asked.

Song Che shook his head: "First of all, I am just a peacemaker, for the benefit of your two countries. In other words, whether or not you reach a meeting at today's symposium will not cause me much loss. Therefore, to exchange these two technologies for your peace is really not equal in chips. ”

The two kings, both understood the meaning of Song Che's words, waved their hands to let all the guards retreat, and closed the doors and windows to talk in secret.

"Mr. Song is a businessman, you must want something, you might as well say it directly, there are no outsiders here." Sha Quivan rubbed his hands and asked with a smile.

Song Che didn't sell Guan Zi either, and compared two fingers: "Two conditions - first, I want to build a neutral country in the Western Regions for silk trading, and the biggest difficulty I have encountered so far is the sand bandits." So I would like to ask your two countries to help us fight the bandits. ”

Sha Quivin said: "Sand bandits are hated by every country in our country, and it is beneficial for us to exterminate them, I agreed!" ”

Shamir said: "My country also fully supports the suppression of bandits, but Mr. Song, you don't know, these sand bandits are like wild dogs, they are extremely strong in the desert, even if you drive them away here today, they will appear elsewhere tomorrow, and they have a strong sense of revenge-

There is a saying in your Liang: 'Barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes', and the sand bandits are a group of barefoot outlaws, and it is extremely difficult to eradicate them. ”

Song Che said confidently: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have used a trick to take the location of the bandits' den, and when the time comes, you only need to borrow 20,000 soldiers and horses from me to scare them away, and you don't even need to pull out your knife." ”

"This ......" Sha Kuiwen worried: "It sounds like Mr. Song wants to rob the sand bandits' territory, you have to think clearly, as Shamir just said, these barefoot gangs have a strong sense of revenge, and they will do everything if they are in a hurry." ”

"Hey, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, let's talk about grabbing their territory first, what's more," Song Che squinted and smiled, "Even if Song can't stand it at that time, I don't think the two Majesties will sit idly by, right?" ”

Sha Quivan and Shamir looked at each other, nodded their heads, and agreed to cooperate with the bandits.

"This second condition is also the main purpose of my coming to the Western Regions," Song Che said solemnly with a serious expression:

"I want to unite the countries of the Western Regions, fight the Hu State with the east and west of the Great Liang, and reopen the Hexi Corridor."

"Bang-"

Sha Quivan shook his hand, and the wine glass fell to the ground.

Shamir also frowned, his face not very good-looking.

Song Che took out three more fingers and analyzed for them: "There are three reasons for eliminating Hu State-

First, Hu was ruthless and cruel, and was the common enemy of the Great Liang and the Western Regions, and it was expected to destroy them;

Second, even if I teach you the techniques of iron-making and salt-making, if you want to make more profits, you must find a stable and continuous market, and the Hexi Corridor under the control of the Hu people will not prosper at all;

Third, today's Great Liang Dynasty, with a wide range of soldiers, a virtuous emperor, and advanced weapons, is a good time to recover the Western Regions;

At the age of the two Majesties, they must all be people who have seen prosperity, who brings harm and who brings wealth, presumably there is no need for Song to say more. ”

Song Che got up, saluted Sha Kuiwen and Sha Miri, and said sonorously:

"The two kings have kept saying that they want to recreate the glory and splendor of their fathers, and I can tell you for sure that the time has come!"
