Huang Fu's personal guard hesitated for a moment before saying, "The emperor of Cai is planning to sell the copper mines to Anyang. Zhu Chongde flew to Anyang overnight to negotiate. He is expected to meet your wise king tomorrow morning."
The Anyang businessman opposite was startled, "I want to know the specific information, and the reward depends on the situation."
Huang Fu's personal soldiers were silent for a while, and finally made up their minds: "Okay, I believe in Anyang's credibility, and I will tell you right away. The specific situation is: the bottom line is not to interfere in Tsai's domestic affairs."
"Hey, this deal requires 50 magic-level flying swords for just nine words. But if this deal goes through, it's worth the price! I'll inform the wise king of this information first. For specific information, you can pay attention to Anyang Daily. If it's important, I'll notify you separately. Still the same place and the same method. The reward of 50 flying swords must be delivered within one month at the latest!"
"good!"
A few minutes later, Huang Fu looked at the Lingtong Baojian in front of him and said, "What a good thing!"
Here, the information appeared on Li Xian's desk a few minutes later! Poor Zhu Chongde, the plane hadn't left the border of Cai State yet, but Cai State's negotiation bottom line was already on Li Xian's desk!
Li Xian, Xu Ren, Li Yuanming, Yan Ze'an, Yuan Yong who had just returned, and other new think tanks, etc., looked at the information in front of them and started discussing it one by one.
After the discussion was almost over, Xu Rencai made a summary speech: "Obviously, the State of Cai has not given up its last effort and is still struggling. They want to throw the red copper mine to us and let us take on the pressure from various countries and face the greed of various countries on their behalf. After our discussion, we have two opinions, both of which are very valuable for reference. First, ignore it completely and watch the fire from the other side. When everyone is almost done fighting, we will join forces with the State of Tang to send troops and have a great chance of controlling Sanchuan of the State of Cai. Second, accept it, but we will treat red copper as an alternative munitions and sell it openly, which can also relieve the pressure from various countries; and what we do is also the balance that all countries hope to see, and we can also make a profit from it. Moreover, using red copper to open the way can well assist the commercial development of Anyang and open up many joints that were blocked in the past. I personally lean towards the second one. But there is a problem. We cannot be sure about the output of this ancient red copper mine. In fact, I think the red copper mine should have been exhausted long ago, and what is left is just residue."
"Actually, I'm more interested in who leaked this information?" Li Xian pointed to the information on the table.
Everyone shook their heads, and Chen Jinbing shook his head even more: "The person who communicated with me was Wang Linyuan, the son of Wang Jingde, the owner of Qingquan Trading Company. I asked Wang Linyuan about the identity of the other person, but Wang Linyuan didn't know either. I only know that the other party acted very cautiously, without any flaws, and had a good reputation."
Yan Ze'an suddenly sneered: "He is so careful and flawless, but there is no news at all. Who is this person? Isn't it obvious who he is?"
Li Yuanming narrowed his eyes slightly. "If that person revealed the information, then we must be careful. We don't know if there is a trap here. That person is the 'capable minister' who almost brought Prime Minister Yan to his doom!"
Yan Ze'an looked embarrassed.
Xu Ren chuckled, "There is a trap, but I'm afraid it's not aimed at us, but at Zhu Chongde! Even if the trap is aimed at us, we can just give up the copper mine! We can already industrialize the production of black iron, copper, mithril, refined gold, etc. Whether we have this mine or not has no impact on us."
