After hearing Yang Yanping's final reply, the smile on the face of the man with the leopard head and ring eyes did not disappear, but became a little stiff.

Not far away, the young man in white shirt raised his eyebrows again, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth again.

"Marquis Ningyuan, Mu said before that the price is definitely not a problem. Cattle, sheep, furs, iron and stone, and even good horses, slaves, Ningyuan Marquis can all bring it. Mu can guarantee that as long as Ningyuan Marquis is willing to sell this batch of grain,

Ningyuan will definitely be able to earn extremely huge profits. Moreover, as long as Marquis Ningyuan agrees to this transaction, our court will send envoys to Danyang to negotiate and handle the necessary procedures, so that Marquis Ningyuan will not have any worries." Leopard Head Ring Eyes

The man took a deep breath, calmed down, and said.

"It has nothing to do with the price. There is no need to worry about it," Yang Yanping said.

Although these two sentences are simple, they almost completely blocked the road to this grain transaction.

Talking about buying and selling, talking about buying and selling, just talking about it is nothing more than asking for high prices and sitting down to pay back the money. As long as we can still negotiate, there is hope for the success of the transaction. Only through negotiation, can the transaction have the hope of success. Yang Yanping will not talk about anything anymore.

Naturally, the sale cannot be completed.

"Marquis Ningyuan, Mu has repeatedly expressed his sincerity, but Marquis Ningyuan still refuses so decisively. Mu is really unwilling to accept it. Can Mu please ask why Marquis Ningyuan must refuse such a good deal?" Leopard Head Ring Eyes

The man took another breath, calmed down the disappointment in his heart again, and asked. At this moment, the smile on his face had completely disappeared.

"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it. Why are there so many? Why? Do you, surnamed Mu, want to buy and sell by force?" Lin Hongyu sneered beside Yang Yanping.

Yang Yanping stretched out his right hand, gently held Lin Hongyu's left hand, and said: "King Mutian, Hongyu is right. When doing business, it is about your own will and my will. There is no reason why."

Lin Hongyu and Yang Yanping said this casually, and the face of the man with a leopard head and ringed eyes suddenly became confused. He was about to speak, but Yang Yanping changed the subject and said: "However, since King Mu Tian has brought

Come here sincerely, and I will have a chat with King Mu Tian."

"Mu is all ears! Please ask Marquis Ningyuan to clarify Mu's doubts," said the man with a leopard head and ringed eyes.

"King Mu Tian, ​​is there an agreement on grain trade between our great Chu and your dynasty?" Yang Yanping did not immediately say anything, but asked.

"Of course there is." The man with the leopard head and ring eyes replied.

"In the agreement, is there a fixed amount of grain that I, Da Chu, will sell to your dynasty every year?" Yang Yanping then asked.

"There are, too." The man with the leopard head and ring eyes replied again.

"After the grain that I, Da Chu, sold to your dynasty was transported to your dynasty via Ningyuan, it was all received by King Mu Tian's South Courtyard?" Yang Yanping continued to ask.

"Not bad." The man with the leopard head and ring eyes replied, but there was already a helpless expression on his face.

"Then, King Mu Tian is in charge of the South Court of your dynasty. With his well-informed knowledge, he must also be well aware of the grain trade situation between our country and your dynasty?" Yang Yanping had an expression that was half a smile but not a smile.

"Marquis Ning Yuan, Mu probably knows what Marquis Ning Yuan means." The man with the leopard head and ring eyes sighed and said.

"Wang Mutian is the king of the southern court of your dynasty and holds a high position. He came here in good spirits, but he has to come back disappointed. Naturally, he is unwilling to accept it. It is better to explain this matter clearly. Please answer, King Mutian, how can I, the great Chu, and your noble

Does King Mu Tian know about the situation of the grain trade?" Yang Yanping ignored the words of the man with a leopard head and ring eyes and asked.

"Ningyuan Marquis also said that since Mu is the Heavenly King of the South Courtyard of our Heavenly Wolf Chao, he really cannot explain clearly the grain trade between Ningyuan and the South Courtyard." The man with the leopard head and ring eyes said with a bitter smile.

This man with a leopard head and ringed eyes is one of the four most powerful heavenly kings of the Tianlang Dynasty, the Nanyuan Heavenly King.

In the Tianlang Dynasty, although the four heavenly kings of the east, south, west and north are equally famous, the real power of these kings is different due to the different strengths of the neighboring countries adjacent to their respective jurisdictions.

The stronger the neighboring country, the greater the corresponding power of the king.

Nowadays, Dachu, which is adjacent to the jurisdiction of the South Courtyard, is the most powerful among all the neighboring countries of Tianlang. Mu Tianhao, the king who sits in the South Courtyard, has naturally become the most powerful and powerful among the four kings of the Tianlang Dynasty.

The most powerful one.

"In that case, may I ask King Mu Tian, ​​according to the agreement, how much grain will our Da Chu sell to your dynasty this year?" Yang Yanping asked.

"Fifteen million stones." Mu Tianhao sighed secretly and said.

"Then, I would like to ask Mu Tian Wang again, as of last month, how many tens of thousands of grains have been received by Mu Tian Wang's south courtyard from the grain sold by our court?" Yang Yanping asked again.

"Marquis Ningyuan, there is no need to ask anymore. Mu completely understands what Marquis Ningyuan means." Mu Tianhao let out a long sigh.

Yang Yanping stopped talking. Lin Hongyu looked at Mu Tianhao with disdain in her eyes.

"Dong Zhenguo, Marquis Ningyuan, Mrs. Yang, Mu knows that this request is a merciless request. However, Mu does have unavoidable reasons." Mu Tianhao once again raised his hands to Yang Hongyi and Yang Yanping.

"Can't the war go on?" Lin Hongyu couldn't help but sarcastically asked.

"Well, since Zhen Guogong and Ningyuan Hou Xian and his wife are both straightforward people, Mu Mou can't hide it." Mu Tianhao paused for a moment, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "I'll tell you the truth.

, this war with Northern Qi has indeed plunged our country into a food crisis."

Yang Hongyi and Yang Yanping didn't answer, they just looked at Mu Tianhao.

Seeing the three people like this, Mu Tianhao sighed again, and continued: "The Wolf Lord and our court officials also know that Dachu and Northern Qi have been on good terms for generations. This time Mu came to ask for food because of the war with Northern Qi, which is indeed a bit...

It is difficult for a man to force himself. However, the Wolf Lord has said that if Da Chu is willing to help with food this time, our Heavenly Wolf Dynasty is willing to sign a treaty of friendship with Da Chu and never invade each other."

"Mu, are you a threat in disguise?" Lin Hongyu said coldly.

"Mrs. Yang's words are serious. Mu is just relaying the Wolf Lord's meaning." Mu Tianhao's face showed a wry smile again, and then said: "Mu came alone today, not only with sincerity, but also with goodwill."

"King Mu Tian, ​​I have a few words to ask, which are related to the state. I hope King Mu Tian will tell you the truth." Yang Hongyi suddenly said.

"Master Zhenguo, please speak. Mu must tell you everything he knows, and he will tell you everything!" Mu Tianhao said solemnly.

"Three hundred years ago, when the Heavenly Wolf was first established and the country was still weak, when they sent envoys to ask for a treaty of friendship from Chu, did Chu refuse?" Yang Hongyi said.

"Your Majesty did not refuse." Mu Tianhao felt helpless again. Mu Tianhao had already guessed what Yang Hongyi was going to ask next. I am afraid that I will really humiliate myself on this trip today.

Already.

"Did we, the great Chu, ever bully the weak and force your dynasty to sign any unequal terms?" Yang Hongyi then asked.

"No." Mu Tianhao replied.

"Based on the original friendship treaty, Dachu and Tianlang have been communicating with each other politically, commercially, and militarily for many years. Have there been any breaches of contract?" Yang Hongyi asked again.

"Not even." The helplessness in Mu Tianhao's heart became even stronger.

"King Mu Tian, ​​where is your dynasty?" Yang Hongyi's voice became a little cold.

"Mr. Zhen Guo, those are all things of the past." Mu Tianhao sighed.

"What King Mutian means is that Tianlang has torn up the agreement many times and raised troops to invade the border of our country. A hundred years ago, he gathered the seven western countries and invaded our territory of Chu. He burned, killed and looted, and forced our country to pay compensation and cede territory. All of them have to pay a sum of money."

Have you exposed it?" After hearing Mu Tianhao's words, Yang Yanping felt angry and couldn't help but pick up the topic and ask.

"Well, Marquis Ningyuan, why should we continue to insist on things that happened a hundred years ago? Moreover, our court has also deeply reflected on that period of history. Over the years, our court and your court have not been working together to repair the things left in those years.

Crack?" Mu Tianhao sighed again.

"King Mu Tian, ​​don't you feel guilty for what you said?" Yang Yanping laughed angrily, with veins popping out on his forehead.

Lin Hongyu raised her eyebrows, pointed at Mu Tianhao and shouted angrily: "Mu, do you want to be shameless? Where are you standing? Who was the person you just pretended to worship?"

"Ping'er, Hongyu, there's no need to say more." Yang Hongyi raised his hand and stopped Yang Yanping and Lin Hongyu. Then he looked at Mu Tianhao and said, "King Mu Tianhao, it's useless to talk more. Please go back."

Yang Hongyi looked at Mu Tianhao with calm eyes, and his tone of voice also returned to calmness, but Mu Tianhao could clearly feel that there was a deep disappointment in Yang Hongyi's eyes and tone. That disappointment,

It was not only a disappointment to him, Mu Tianhao, but also a disappointment to the Tianlang Dynasty.

"Mr. Zhenguo, Mr. Mu..." Mu Tianhao raised his hand and was about to clasp his fist towards Yang Hongyi again. Yang Hongyi had already turned around, with his hands behind his back, his back to Mu Tianhao, and no longer looked at him.

No more talking.

"King Mu Tian, ​​please!" Yang Yanping stretched out his hand and said coldly.

"Dong Zhenguo, Marquis Ningyuan, Mrs. Yang, since Mu is so unpopular, he will not stay for long. However, there is one thing that needs to be conveyed to Mu Tianhao." Mu Tianhao said with another wry smile.

Yang Hongyi still had his hands behind his back and his back was facing Mu Tianhao. Yang Yanping and Lin Hongyu, husband and wife, looked at Mu Tianhao with cold faces. None of the three said a word.

"Dong Zhenguo, Marquis Ningyuan, Mrs. Yang, can Ningyuan suspend transactions with Northern Qi during this period? Especially the grain trade." Mu Tianhao said solemnly.

Yang Hongyi still did not turn around or speak. Yang Yanping and Lin Hongyu also did not speak, but continued to look at Mu Tianhao. There was a hint of coldness in Yang Yanping's eyes, while Lin Hongyu's face showed unabashed contempt and disdain.

"Ahem, um," Mu Tianhao cleared his suddenly congested throat and continued bravely: "To be honest with Duke Zhen and Ningyuan Hou Xian, the war in Northern Qi is stalemate, and many people in the Seven Kingdoms already think that...

The reason why the battle between Northern Qi and Northern Qi is so difficult is because Da Chu has been secretly providing help to Northern Qi. If Ning Yuan can suspend the transaction with Northern Qi..."

"King Mu Tianhao, there is no need to say any more!" Yang Yanping interrupted Mu Tianhao and said: "The transaction between Da Chu and Northern Qi is fair and aboveboard. Whether or not to make a deal is a matter between Da Chu and Northern Qi, and the seven countries should not worry about it.

"

"Ning Yuanhou, Mu has good intentions. If Ning Yuan continues to trade with Northern Qi at this juncture, especially trading strategic materials such as grain, some people in the seven countries may misunderstand. If some misunderstandings do occur, it will not be good for Da Chu.

.If war breaks out again, Ningyuan will bear the brunt..." Mu Tianhao said.

"King Mu Tianhao, don't the seven countries have enough 'misunderstandings' about our great Chu? Are we going to start a war again?" Yang Yanping sneered, interrupted Mu Tianhao again, and then said in a deep voice: "King Mu Tianhao, Yang also has something to say.

, please tell King Mu Tian to tell you to the Wolf Lord and your alliance: I, the Great Chu, is no longer the great Chu who was at the mercy of others a hundred years ago! King Mu Tian must still remember the lessons learned twenty years ago! And I, Ning Yuan,

King Mu Tian, ​​please look!"
