"But in this Qiandongliu City, isn't a hundred Dongzhu too many?" Dugu Cheng frowned.
"What does the eldest prince think?" Baili Mochen asked with raised eyebrows.
"Here is a good way to mutually benefit both countries. If the prince thinks it is feasible, can we still discuss the matter of giving up the city?" Dugu City thought for a while and said.
"Oh? Great Prince, please speak!" Baili Mochen seemed to be somewhat interested and motioned to Dugu Cheng to continue.
"It's like this. Your Majesty also knows that I went out for a walk on the first day I arrived in the capital of your country. During my visit, I found that there are unlimited business opportunities between the two countries, so I thought, maybe we can Opening up to each other will make the business exchanges between the two countries closer and mutually beneficial. If King Yao is willing, we, Liaodong, are willing to reduce or reduce general taxes for all Tianan merchants and help support Tianan merchants in Liaodong to a certain extent. "Dugu City will itself. Speak out your thoughts one by one.
Everyone present listened quietly and attentively. Baili Mochen also seemed to find it interesting and nodded to signal Dugu Cheng to continue.
"We can open a special business travel channel and implement certain incentive policies for these businessmen. I believe that as long as there is more business travel interaction between the two countries, it will definitely bring more unexpected income. It is far more than just a few simple things. This city and Dongzhu are much more valuable," Dugu Cheng continued.
"What the eldest prince said makes sense, but this matter has not yet been implemented. How can I predict whether this matter is feasible? If the implementation is blocked, I will suffer a great loss."
In fact, Baili Mochen had already made up his mind about this matter, but he just wanted to deliberately tease Qiao.
"Your Majesty, you only need to ask the princess next to you about this. I have already visited Princess Yao's property in the capital this time. Princess Yao is not only a hero among women of her generation, but also a business prodigy."
Dugu Cheng turned to look at the calm and steady spring breeze beside Baili Mochen, and gave high praise.
Baili Mochen also turned to look at Chunfeng beside him. Although he was proud of his princess when others praised him, why did she feel so uncomfortable when these words came from Dugu Cheng's mouth
"What does the princess think?" For some unknown reason, Baili Mochen whispered to the spring breeze beside him.
Chunfeng didn't expect that he would let himself express his opinion on such a big issue between the two countries.
After sorting out his thoughts, he said calmly: "I think what the eldest prince said is not impossible, but I have a few more requests."
"Princess, please speak!" Dugu Cheng said respectfully.
Reihua, who was just sitting on the toilet, had already had angry veins popping out on her hands. Why did such a big deal involve such an ignorant woman
But she forgot that she was a woman herself and had tried to get involved.
"First, your country needs to give absolute protection and fair treatment to Tianan's business travelers in the commercial exchanges between the two countries. Second, the taxes and fees your country levies on Tianan's business travelers can only be 30% of local business travelers. Of course, relative, I, Tianan, will also provide shelter to Liaodong merchants and only levy 50% of the tax. Secondly, a commercial agreement must be signed between the two countries, and everything will be carried out in accordance with the agreement."
Chunfeng briefly listed a few points, and as for those that were still incomplete, they could all be included in the agreement.
As early as when Dugu City proposed business contacts, Chunfeng quickly calculated in his mind the possible benefits of business contacts between the two countries.
I found that in comparison, the benefits obtained were much greater than those obtained by those cities.
Moreover, Tian'an is rich, but it is an inland place. Liaodong's national power is slightly inferior to Tian'an, but it is close to the sea and is rich in pearls and fisheries.
Inland Tian'an is rich in silkworms, textiles, rice and grain, as well as a famous porcelain industry, all of which are lacking in Liaodong.
It would definitely be a great thing if the business and travel channels between the two countries could be opened up.
What's more, Chunfeng feels that the seafood in Liaodong can be turned into countless delicacies under his own hands, which is also a huge wealth.
Chunfeng inexplicably felt that what she was doing now was surprisingly similar to the certain path followed by a certain master in her previous life, but her path didn't go that far.
"This..." Hearing the 30% tax mentioned by Chunfeng, Dugu City was a little hesitant. This seemed to be too little.
"Okay, as the princess said, but the six cities of Qandong must be returned to me, Liaodong." In the end, Dugu City gritted his teeth and agreed, but he wanted to return the six cities of Qandong.
"Six cities in Liaodong are not enough. I will return you two cities at most. However, I can give you another agreement. Tianan will not use troops in Liaodong within ten years." Baili Mochen rejected Dugu City's idea without hesitation.
Originally, he only had eyes for those four cities, and the others were just additions.
If possible, Baili Mochen didn't want to see the destruction of life between the two countries. Moreover, the Huns' war had just ended. The situation of the Huns was still unstable and it was not appropriate to continue fighting.
So Baili Mochen chose to take a step back. How much wealth will the trade between the two countries create in ten years
He is not afraid of Liaodong's growth in the past ten years, because he is confident that Tianan will grow faster than him.
"In this case, it will be as the prince said!" Dugu City thought about it and felt that it was not impossible for the four cities to live in peace for ten years.
If he doesn't agree, it's not impossible to break through Liaodong at any time according to the weapons and troops currently available to King Yao.
There is still a business travel agreement negotiated between the two countries, which is not necessarily a bad thing. At least they still have time to grow, right
"Very good, I know that the eldest prince is a wise man." Baili Mochen nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you, Prince Yao, for your compliment. To celebrate the success of this peace negotiation, I would like to offer you a toast." Dugu Cheng raised his glass and smiled at Baili Mochen.
No matter what the purpose is, if the ultimate goal is achieved, it is always worth celebrating.
"Yes, Lianhua also wants to toast you." Lianhua stood up and said at the right time.
"Well, Princess Lianhua will follow the eldest prince back to Liaodong after we sign the agreement. This glass of wine should be considered as a fulfillment for the princess."
Baili Mochen sat there with a wine glass in his hand and said as if he didn't care.
But this sentence made Lianhua change her face.
Lianhua drank a glass of wine with an ugly expression, sat back down, and stopped talking.
On the other hand, after Dugu Cheng finished his glass of wine, he poured another one and walked toward the spring breeze.
Chao Chunfeng said with some admiration and respect in his eyes: "Princess Yao, I admire you very much for your business methods. I would like to propose a toast to you here to show my respect."
