Li Xian walked towards the meeting hall, but he felt a little complaining in his heart - Can't you countries have some principles? I've wasted my brain cells.
I was racking my brains to think about the aorta. 180,000 kilometers, at least 40 countries to cross, even if Li Xian is confident, but still worried.
But now, before the formal negotiations have even started, the envoys from Shao State have come to express their willingness to cooperate and welcome them with open arms.
This huge contrast made Master Li feel a huge sense of loss - I have prepared many methods, why can't you stick to it? People should have principles.
When we arrived at the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion, we saw the envoy from Shao State already standing at the door waiting.
Without waiting for Li Xian to approach, the envoy immediately ran two steps, "Hello, King Xian, I heard that the Kingdom of Shang is going to build a railway with the Kingdom of Zhao to connect the inland of Yingzhou with the sea. This is a project that will benefit generations to come. I wonder if the Kingdom of Shao is lucky enough to be able to participate in this project?"
Looking at this humble and cautious attitude, who would dare to believe that Gongsun Jue is actually the diplomatic ambassador of Shao State? Shao State is a country that dares to send troops to Qi State.
Yeah... Master Li suddenly thought, it really wish that my great commander Yan Zhengqing captured the Emperor of Qi alive in just three days.
Okay, I was thinking in the wrong direction. Li Xian pulled his thoughts back and was about to say a few words.
But at this moment, someone came to report that the envoy from Xing State had arrived!
Soon, Guan Xiaohua, the diplomatic envoy of Xing State, came to Li Xian in small steps and ran quickly, without even looking at Gongsun Jue beside him. "Hello, King Xian. After hearing about the cooperation between Shang Kingdom and Zhao Kingdom to build a major artery, the foreign minister returned to Xing State overnight to meet with Your Majesty. Your Majesty has said that this is a great project that will be glorious for thousands of years and benefit generations to come. Countless people in Xing State are looking forward to this railway passing through Xing State. For this reason, Xing State is willing to fully cooperate with all the requirements of Shang Kingdom."
Oh my god... is there really such a good thing as pie falling from the sky
But... Li Xian looked at Guan Xiaohua, the diplomatic envoy of Xing State, and wanted to complain, "Brother, did you really return home last night? I remember you were waiting at Beidou Mountain in the middle of the night to watch the rocket launch, right? Do you really think that the intelligence system of the Shang Kingdom is just a waste of time?"
However, not only pie in the sky, but also gold ingots. Soon, the third diplomatic envoy arrived, from Baishan Kingdom. This diplomatic envoy was even more exaggerated - Wise King, our entire Baishan Kingdom wants to join the Shang Kingdom, unconditionally. Please accept it with a smile.
Li Xian stopped walking towards the council hall and said, "Let me wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a fourth one."
Sure enough, there was a fourth one, the enchanting vixen Ji Caiji dressed in gorgeous red. "Oh, the wise king has guests here. I will come back in the evening."
Slave~~~Li Xian's mouth twitched. This vixen was becoming more and more "evil".
After entering the meeting hall, Li Xian subconsciously glanced at the map next to him.
The Shang Kingdom wanted to build a railway with the Zhao Kingdom. The starting point of the railway would have to pass through the Shao Kingdom instead of the Xing Kingdom. One of the two countries had to be chosen.
As for Baishan State, it was a small country sandwiched between the Shang Kingdom and the Xing and Lu States, covering a radius of a thousand miles. It was not surprising that it had now surrendered to the Shang Kingdom.
