Power and Empire Chapter 1937: Counter against Gangfei (2)
"Your Majesty, do you need me to negotiate right now?" Varysis was a little impatient.
"No, the wine glass in the fat man's hand turned around, and he glanced at Tang Ruyue on the stage. Tang Ruyue, who is proudly independent among the petals of the sky, hangs down like a butterfly with wide and long cloud sleeves on his jade arms. , The beauty of the jade sword, that is a kind of peerless amorous feelings" Xiang Valisian said condensedly
"I have arranged, today you will see the performance of Varysian, tomorrow will be spread throughout Lisbon, this is the signal to the other party,
The other party wants to attract the attention of the top leaders of the empire, and the empire also said that it has sent someone there. The other party will know that if they do not take the initiative, they will get farther and farther away from the mineral trading rights they want to obtain. I can’t sit down anymore,
"You know, in the negotiation between the two parties, the initiative to find the door and the other party rush to find the door, the meaning is completely different! Only when the other party is eager to find the door, will all the cards be revealed!" The Fatty's voice paused. , Looking at the rippling wine in the wine glass, he sighed and laughed at the corner of his mouth
"We must let the other party know what they want to do. We know very well that we can talk, when and how to talk, everything is up to us! Since we want to change the business to the seller, we can’t blame us for maximizing profit ! In this matter, everyone is tacit understanding!"
"Yes, my subordinates understand!"
Valisian nodded with an understanding idea,
Your Majesty, this is obviously killing two birds with one stone. On the one hand, you can take this opportunity to establish a relationship with the Tang people in China, and on the other hand, you can also secure more protection for the imperial merchants on the trade line of China. Open up more business routes, I believe that the documents with the content of these agreement terms are ready!
I don’t know the beauty of the Tang nationality who is still working hard to attract the attention of the empire, knowing that everything has been seen by the empire for a long time to be transparent and bright, and a big hole has been dug. What kind of expression will it look like? Varysian's eyebrows were looked at. In fact, the beauty of this Chinese and Bianbian woman is quite charming. Although it is not in line with the aesthetics of Oubaro, such a very beautiful sword dance can also add a lot of points. Now that I chose Israel’s attractive way, it is not impossible for your Majesty to kill three birds with one stone,
"Boom! Bang! Bang!"
Just when the two of them were talking in low voices, the drum sound accompanied by the sharp sword light gradually faded, and finally stopped, the sword light dissipated
Tang Ruyue stands proudly like a fairy, with the tip of the sword facing down, and his tall chest slightly panting, which is very attractive. Sword dance is a ritual before men set out in the Tang nationality, and it is used in Tang nationality’s sword dance. The sword is not the light sword she has made now, but the long-handled broad sword used for fighting in the real battle formation. Even if it is, it is a very physical consuming thing for Tang Ruyue. A tidal wave of cheers, as a rest, another beautiful dancer appeared on the stage. The dancer who took over seemed to be a master. He did not show up at first, but a huge white sand spilled from the top of the stage.
Just when everyone felt impatient for this, the music rang, and a white sand screen lay in the middle, vaguely walking out of a graceful beauty,
A pair of beautiful and well-proportioned calves are slowly exposed as the curtain of Saru is pulled up, and the white and crystal are also looming under the white sand. Although not as thrilling as Tang Ruyue’s sword dance, they are already surrounded by them. There was silence, and many people held their breath. This is a pair of slender and extremely perfect legs. The dancer is a woman with white sand on her face, Liu Yuemei, her eyes are like autumn water, her body is enchanting, and she is full of beauty. Beautiful and charming arc.
The dazzling snow white is dizzying, and with the Zhongbia-style bó-like cicada-winged gauze skirt, the exposed pair of bare feet jumped quickly,
is slender and white, revealing another moving charm
"This woman is really an evildoer who kills both young and old. It's a pity that you can't see her face!" Seeing the bright eyes and loosening the neckline, Varisian couldn't help feeling dry and dry. If Tang Ruyue is Fairy dance sword, this white sand woman is playing fat with a witch's foot. This kind of dance has little effect on the fat man with firm heart,
He withdrew his gaze from the white sand masked woman without much interest. With his eyesight, the other side’s white sand layer was nothing but nothing. He smiled and said, "This is the other side’s wise place. If you can’t see the face, it can be everything. The various looks in people’s hearts, if they are a very ordinary face, I’m afraid the charm of this foot dance will be greatly reduced!"
The private room he reserved is on the second floor. It is not a particularly conspicuous location. It is more to the left, and the best location is naturally in the middle. The fat guy is unwilling to attract the attention of others. The guards stand at the door. It’s not a rare occurrence. Those who can enter the second floor with the best viewing position, although not all powerful figures and big businessmen, but at least they have some family background. Now, during the war, tens of thousands of foreign sailors are crowded in Lisbon. Too, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, and there are occasional conflicts between the various forces. It is normal to bring a few guards by your side,
At this time, in the most conspicuous position of the second floor box, what is a handsome young nobleman from Central and Biacia and a young nobleman with a business alliance sign saying?
With the establishment of the commerce line between China and Bahia, it is not unusual to see a Chinese and Byanian businessman in the Putau area, but this young nobleman in China and Bahia is obviously different in body, standing behind him looks extraordinary. His escort, who was talking with him was not an ordinary businessman, but the son of Sidnesaw, one of the twelve deacons of the Business League, Sidney Picard. And sitting across from him is a handsome young Chinese nobleman, wearing a Chinese-Byanese-style white robe, his face is as clean as a feather, revealing the delicate and feminine beauty that the Chinese nobles like to use as self-referential. /
What they are talking about is about the iron ore trade
"It's not easy, Lord Zhang Tian, although you have a high reputation and the price you are opening is very fair, but what you want is really very hot!" Sidney Picard stared at the stage. The masked woman said in an ugly tone, "You also know that the empire is still fighting the Gauls. All iron ore flowing to the Gaul line is very tightly controlled. If you want to transport it out of the empire, even our business alliance needs at least The double-layer signature and seal of the Imperial Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Military Affairs, otherwise it will be regarded as collaborating with the enemy and treason! The border guards along the way are the result of direct beheading!"
"Why can't we take smuggling since we can't be shipped out in a fair manner?"
The young nobleman of Central Biyah glanced at Sidney Piga, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said calmly, "I have heard that the business alliance has a good relationship with the border guards. Can't you just think about the border guards? Me? I know that your Sidney family has something to do with the border guards."
"Your Excellency Zhang Tian, you can't talk nonsense like this"
Sidney Picard was shocked when he heard it, and immediately interrupted him aloud. It seemed to be a bit angry. When he said, "I know that your Zhang clan is a big clan of the Central Biya Empire, and even controls A section of national borders can be said to be overwhelmingly powerful, but in the Falcon Empire, the imperial military and the business alliance are basically two different things! Collusion between merchants and the military is a big taboo of the empire!"
Sidney Piga is twenty-four years old this year, with flax-colored hair, bright eyes, and a long heroic look. With gestures and gestures, he has the air of a soldier. The Sidney family is originally the Kingdom of Swadian. The knight family, whose father Sidney can enter the position of the twelve deacons of the business alliance, represents the interests of the Swadian business circle.
This Zhang Tian, a native of Zambia, found him through a Swadian merchant's introduction. According to this Swadian merchant who traveled between China and Biyadh, this Zhang Tian came from the Zambia Empire. The Zhang clan, one of the four great tribes, is quite powerful in the territory of China and Biya. It is said that it is equivalent to the status of a prince in a principality. The Sidney family is also trying to expand the business route to China and Biya, so this Zhang The sky has a special meaning, and the price of iron ore proposed by the other party is three to four times the market price, and the quantity is amazing! Thousands of kilograms, the only requirement is to be transported to the border between China and Bahia. Of course, the Zhang clan is completely responsible for the transportation costs.
After listening to Sidney Picard’s words, Zhang Tian, who was sitting across from him, flashed his eyes and said for sure, "As long as we pass the Gaul realm, our people will respond. I can use my reputation to guarantee that you will get Enough remuneration"
"There is money to make, but it's useless to spend it!"
Sidney Picard shrugged and said, "We have iron ore, and the quantity is enough. In terms of the Imperial Interior Ministry, our Sidney family still has some relations. It is not difficult to manage it, but the Imperial military, We can’t help this. In fact, the empire values the merchants in China and Bahrain very much, and it’s not difficult for ordinary goods, but what you want is iron ore,
You know that the Gauls are crazy because they lack iron, and the quantity you need is still so large. Smuggling is the least cost-effective method. The risk is high. It is also easy to be separated from the cargo. The cavalry of the Imperial Frontier Guard But they are all steppe cavalry, they are best at tracking, it is too difficult to get rid of them, even if they enter Gaul, the bandits on the Gaul side will be moved by the wind,
Crossing the Gaul line with such a large number of holmium mines is simply asking for a dead end, so even smugglers never take the Gaul line"
"I don't believe this thing, there is no way!" Zhang Tian frowned slightly, his fingers clenched the wine glass, and took a sip of strong alcohol. He looked unwillingly swept across the stage below, his eyes were cold. Human, is it true that, as the Tang woman said, she can only open a gap in the upper echelon of the Falcon Empire?
Thinking of this impossible solution in a short period of time, Zhang Weather was annoyed and took a dozen mouthfuls in a row.
"Asshole, what Zhang Tian can't do, don't even think of you Tang people!" Zhang Tian's face flushed with suffocation, and he stood up swayingly with alcohol, just across from Sidney Bi. Before the addition had time to react, Zhang Tian suddenly opened his mouth and shouted at the stage below in the common language of Obalo
"Tang Ruyue, you think you can seize the right to trade by killing the Li family, do you think that selling dances here will save you the Tang family? You dreamed that the Dongting iron cavalry went south, and the first person who would be trampled to death was you Tang Clan! Even if you dance to death here, the Vekia Falcon will not give you a piece of iron ore!"
Zhang Tian yelled in Obalo, and then he started talking in a low voice.
"Who is this!"
" Drinking and drinking crazy, but what is the iron ore he said? "There is a lot of discussion below
" came, and immediately picked up His Excellency Zhang Tian and went back to rest." Sidney Piga stood up in a panic, and hurriedly shouted, he did not expect Zhang Tian, who is also a nobleman, to be like this. Several Sidney families The guards hurried over to grab Zhang Tian, who looked crazy, and Zhang Tian cursed for a while before he was grabbed
"It's the **** of the Zhang Clan!" In the background, a beautiful and playful little maid with a cold face, was looking towards the private room on the second floor, and turned to Tang Ruyue, who was putting a red crescent on her eyebrows, with an angry look He said, "It must be because of the Li family. I touched my nose in the southwest area and thought of smuggling just like us. Only when I arrived, no one dared to smuggle! Now I want to mess up the whole thing! Sister Xiaoying, do you want to... mouth...
I promise that guy died unconsciously! "
"Don't mess around!"
Tang Ruyue stood up, her pretty face was cold, her eyes glared fiercely at the murderous little maid, "You forgot to be in the southwest area. If you didn't act on the Li people, the agreement would have been signed. Will we be forced to run away by the lunatic Li Yuehua in the southwest area?
" But if he scolds Sister Xiao Rong like this, I just want to kill him! "The little maid said violently
"Our time is very tight, and we can't waste energy on this kind of thing anymore" Tang Ruyue said coldly, "The letter I received a few days ago, the northern east court cavalry is already gathering spring forces, and soon There is a tendency to go south in a big way. Because of the loss of the northern mines, the Central and Biyarian Empire is now in a dilemma of insufficient strength and insufficient equipment. It is difficult to use the ice and iron wall to block the cavalry in the eastern court like in winter. It’s only a matter of time before the imperial capital Baili Chang Court was destroyed."
" Sister Xiao冇, if that Falcon King really wants to see you, what do you do? "The little maid gently moved her finger on the sleeve line, and said very aggrieved," I heard about the Falcon King. He is so fierce and horrible, but also very beautiful. If you see a beauty like Xiaoying, wouldn’t it be a wolf into the mouth of a tiger!"
" In very times, very methods, even if the wolf enters the tiger’s mouth, as long as the iron ore can be exchanged is worth it! "Tang Ruyue sighed, tearing a red flower with her hand, and just sticking it to the center of the little maid’s eyebrows , The corner of his mouth smiled bitterly and said, "The Empire State Building is about to fall, and the Wu family is already discussing moving south to avoid disasters. The people in the country are panicking, and the wealthy families have begun to think about themselves. As the Tang family, they always need to sacrifice for the family. Now The situation is that whoever has iron ore in their hands can rise up in the chaos of the future! For us who have been under the royal family for 500 years, this is a once-in-500-year opportunity. The family letter mentioned, Regardless of the price paid, enough iron ore must be collected as soon as possible and shipped to China and Biya"
"But until now, that sentence has caused such a stir, and the reaction of the Falcon Empire is too abnormal at all. Is the news false? The Vecchia Falcon is not in Lisbon at all?" Tang Ruyue put down her right hand , Seems to be worried, Mo Ruguang’s pupils are full of confusion, talking to himself softly
"The show..." the little maid asked
"Stop, just say I'm unwell! Maybe Zhang Tian is right. These are all wasted efforts. It's better to go and ask for an interview soon!" Tang Ruyue waved her hand and said with a frustrated expression. In another box on the second floor, the fat man patted his clothes and stood up from his seat. After such a disturbance, it is estimated that Tang Ruyue will not be on the stage again. He is not in the mood to look at it anymore. Varisian follows closely. The guard opened the door of the box. The fat man took the cloak from the guard. Just before he was about to tie it, he rushed over to a drunken figure and a few guards from the Sidney family
"Who!"
The guards on the alert immediately rushed up and stopped in front, and the sword came out of its sheath,
"This is!" The cold curved blade of the war knife changed the faces of several Sidney guards beside the drunk. One of the young people walked out and waved his hand and said, "Don’t get me wrong, I’m the Sidney family. People, this friend is drunk, please forgive me if you offend!"
" is a drunkard, my lord! "The obstructing guard hesitated, retracted the sword, and reported behind him with embarrassment,
"Forget it, go back!"
The fat man waved his hand, the drunk man’s Zhongbian costume made his eyes pause. Isn’t this the one just now? The yelling Zhongbian?
Forget it, the fat man was unwilling to talk to such people. At this moment, the half-drunk Zhang Tian looked forward with his dimly drunk eyes. He saw the fat man with black hair at a glance, thinking that he was a man. The businessman from China and Biyah suddenly became confident, pointed at the fat man, and screamed with his arms akimbo, "As a citizen of China and Biyah, you dare to confront me? Do you know who I am? Longchuan Jiedu ordered Zhang Fengqun to be my dad! If you come to kneel, I will let my father kill your family!"
Zhang Tian’s voice was very loud, especially the words "Kill Your Family", which echoed in the corridor for more than ten seconds. He did not feel the air around him suddenly stop, and the fat black man in front stopped. Stepped, came over,
"What are you going to do, I'm Zhang Tian, and my father is Longchuan Jiedu...!" Zhang Tian's arrogant shout suddenly came,
did not see how to move, everyone felt a flower in front of them,
Zhang Tian’s head with his mouth open has already flown into the sky~IndoMTL.com~The blood in the cavity is sprayed from Zhang Tian’s headless chest to the top of the corridor, like a rain of blood,
"I remember the name Zhang Fengqun!" The fat man said to himself, took the handkerchief from a guard behind him, and gently wiped the soft sword in his hand
"I’m going, are you crazy! How did you kill him!" Sidney Picard looked completely stupid, he also thought that the other party was a businessman from China and Bahrain,
"Come on, take the club!"
A bald head has jumped out, and at the same time, the guard over there makes a sound of sharp blade unsheathing, and the cold light flickers.
" Wait, don’t do it, we belong to Sidney! My host will be here soon!"
Sidney’s guard also pulled out the knife and shivered,
They felt that the other party’s guards were definitely real soldiers with hidden physiques. The smell of murder and blood on those weapons could be smelled even more than ten meters away.
Although I don’t know the origin, the other party is just a few people standing there, which makes people feel an irresistible chill.
This is a true warrior of all wars,
I feel that the head of the guard who has caused trouble smiles bitterly, and I can only hold it up, hoping to keep the owner rushing. At any rate, the owner is also one of the twelve deacons of the business alliance, and the other party should also have some scruples, ( To be continued) [This text is provided by Qihang Update Team@夏小涵009] If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly pass.
