Ursu's eyes, which were originally as big as mung beans, were now narrowed to a slit. Those rough guys couldn't understand Zhang Junbao's methods, but he was well-informed.
There are martial arts masters in Dasheng, and there are also masters in the grassland, but they are rare and the number of methods is different.
And this Zhang Junbao must have learned from a famous master. Although he is not very old, he is flexible and skillful.
These rough guys have no problem fighting on the battlefield, but their skill in maneuvering and moving is no match for them.
So he simply called it a day.
"Master Yang, your subordinate is also a young hero. He is so capable at a young age, and his future will be limitless."
I complimented him casually, and even if the matter was revealed, if I really let the child knock over a few more, there would be no need to hold this bonfire party.
He held this bonfire party to boost morale, not to slap people in the face.
Yang Xuan also secretly thought it was a pity. If he did this a few more times and the influence expanded further, their bonfire party would become a party of embarrassment.
Ursu also understood the gap in strength between the two sides. It would be impossible to regain ground in this earthen fort.
So he just warmly greeted Yang Xuan to eat meat and drink wine, and didn't mention anything else.
Yang Xuan wanted to stir up trouble several times, but was distracted by Ursu, so he had no choice but to give up and leave.
On the third day, Ursu discussed only ten clauses again. It seemed that he was preparing to continue the delaying tactics.
Da Sheng's officials returned to the camp and cursed angrily, but Yang Xuan smiled coldly and asked Prince Chun to go down and appease everyone, while announcing that they would continue to play games and eat hot pot today.
His decision immediately made everyone cheer.
Although this hot pot could be eaten in restaurants when they were in Yingtian Mansion, the price was not cheap, but Yang Xuan let them eat it openly.
Yang Xuan went to Ursu to buy some cattle and sheep. Ursu was embarrassed to accept the money. After all, he received a gift from Yang Xuan yesterday, so he sent a batch of cattle and sheep to him today.
Yang Xuan didn't take advantage of him and returned some gifts.
As a result, the negotiations came to a stalemate in this seemingly friendly, but actually cunning, atmosphere.
Just talk about ten things a day, not too many and not too few.
As for Yang Xuan, he plays games and eats hot pot every day.
In the cold weather of the twelfth lunar month, eating hot pot, singing songs, and drinking wine is simply enjoyable.
I originally thought that I came to this place to suffer from the weather, but now it seems that this is just a vacation.
Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye. Here in Dasheng, people are singing and singing every night, but on the grassland people's side, they are almost running out of ammunition and food.
All the cattle and sheep were bought by Yang Xuan, and the officials of the grassland people all had huge pockets, but the people under them were in misery, and they didn't even have enough to eat.
Originally, they were driving a sufficient number of cattle and sheep, but who knew that all the beef and mutton ended up in the stomachs of Dasheng people.
Although Ursu had already sent people back to transport food when he realized something was wrong, it was too late.
Calculating the distance and the remaining food, they would be hungry for at least three days.
Originally, it was not a big deal for a man on the grassland to go hungry for three to five days, but he couldn't stand the Dasheng people across from him, who sang, danced and cooked hot pot every day.
The aroma wafts over one after another, and no one can stand it.
Especially the people under his command are obviously his own cattle and sheep, but he can't eat it. He watches others eat it every day. How can he not feel resentful in his heart?
The people in Dasheng were also belatedly aware of this. When they saw that the opposite party was hungry and they themselves were making hot pot, they all sincerely admired Yang Xuan.
Not only is it good to eat and drink, but it can also make the prairie people stare with anger, not to mention how enjoyable it is.
Ursu had no choice but to look down on his old face and come to Yang Xuan for food.
But Yang Xuan spread his hands and the cattle and sheep have finished eating. How about I give you some rice and noodles?
Ursu's mung bean eyes widened. I heard the lowing of the cows behind your camp. Did you tell me that all the cows and sheep have been eaten?
How did this kid keep his eyes open and tell lies without blushing and his heart skipping a beat?
But there was no way, he couldn't fall out, so in the end he went back with a load of rice and noodles with a lot of gratitude.
This cart of rice and noodles is not enough. There are two to three hundred of them. This amount of food is only enough for one day. It cannot be eaten in full. Rice and noodles are not as filling as meat. In this cold weather, there is no food in the stomach.
Even a little oil and water can't handle it.
However, Yang Xuan said that because of the delay, they did not expect that the negotiations would take so long, so they did not bring enough food and grass.
What this means implicitly is that if you procrastinate yourself, who should you blame?
Ursu gritted his teeth and returned to the camp. He wanted to continue stalling, but the people below gave up. The system on the grassland is that the officials are all tribal leaders. They generally obey the orders of the wolf master, but if they are dissatisfied, they will be reported.
Fight rationally.
Ursu couldn't force the tribal leaders because of this matter, so he had to make a decision and finalize all the remaining terms tomorrow.
Of course, this matter cannot be settled so quickly. Both parties still need to go back and report to the master. If there are no accidents, the terms will be signed. If there are any differences, they will have to renegotiate again.
Since the grassland people are willing to speed up the progress, Yang Xuan no longer delays. After all, there are only a few days until the New Year's Eve. If you speed up on the way back, you might be able to make it in time for the New Year.
Since there was no longer any delay, Ursu had already studied the terms thoroughly and finalized all the terms on the same day. Both parties stamped the initial cooperation agreement and ended the negotiations in a "friendly" atmosphere.
In this round, no matter how you put it, Ursu, the wisest man in the grassland, lost to Yang Xuan.
The delegation hurried slowly along the road and entered Yingtian Mansion amidst bursts of firecrackers.
This day is the New Year's Eve.
After entering the palace to meet the emperor and reporting the situation, His Majesty the Emperor smiled so much that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear, even though his mouth was crooked when he smiled.
After feeling happy, His Majesty the Emperor decreed that everyone in the mission would be generously rewarded. Those who should be given money would be given money, and those who should be promoted would be promoted. Even Mr. Zhang, the minister of etiquette, was given the false title of third rank.
It's just that Yang Xuan was not mentioned at all in the imperial edict. There was no reward, no promotion, let alone promotion.
Yang Xuan didn't complain, because Wang Daban quietly told him that when the matter was finally completed, the Holy Emperor might give him a title.
When he returned to his house, his eldest brother and his family were all here. What surprised him was that Yang Xiao's concubine, Yuan Shuyi, had a big belly and was obviously pregnant.
Seeing his eldest brother taking care of her carefully, Yang Xuan smiled and said: "Brother, you have conceived the child, so you should help him straighten up."
Yang Xiao was stunned and quickly nodded: "Exactly, exactly. If my brother hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten about it."
The sound of firecrackers sounds, and the family reunites for the New Year.
Yang Xuan feels that he is becoming more and more integrated into this world.
