Although the other party's words were unpleasant, Niu Youdao understood that what the other party said was indeed the truth. In the capital of Qi State, the emperor wanted him not to see the sun tomorrow with just one sentence. [oM]
Niu Youdao looked through the things in his hands and said, "Mudan, please let Linghu Qiu and Feng Entai come over."
"Yes!" Black Peony agreed.
Lady Pei asked: "Does this kind of thing need to involve other people?"
Black Mudan stopped when he heard the sound and looked at Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao patted the thing in his hand and said, "This is the first time I have seen this thing. How do I know if it is true or false?"
Mrs. Pei chuckled lightly, "Do I have to give you a fake thing? If His Majesty the Emperor really wants to deal with you, does he need to take this detour?"
This is what makes Niu Youdao tangled. This sudden benefit makes him unbelievable. He wants to give up, but he feels that His Majesty the Emperor really doesn’t need to beat around the bush when dealing with him. He is on someone else’s territory and he has to deal with him too much. Easy.
If you think too much, it would be a pity to give up this valuable thing.
Niu Youdao still waved to Black Mudan and asked him to invite the two people.
Not long after, Linghu Qiu and Feng Entai arrived. When they saw Mrs. Pei coming, they both looked at Niu Youdao with questioning eyes.
Niu Youdao handed the thing to them smoothly, "The Emperor of Qi wants to fulfill his promise for the princess. I have never seen this thing before. You can see if it is true or not."
After the two of them saw what they had got, they were both shocked. The hundred thousand horses that the princess had come to randomly during the day had actually arrived!
Feng Entai was even more excited when he looked at the thing in his hand, and his eyes were shining.
However, neither of them had seen this thing before. Under normal circumstances, the documents issued by the Qi court for war horses to leave the country were usually transactions between countries, and most monks had never seen this thing.
Madam Pei looked at their confused looks and shook her head and said, "There is really no need to doubt, I can't fake it, and I can't fool you with lies!"
Linghu Qiu asked Niu Youdao: "Brother, what's going on?"
"The princess owes me money and promised things. His Majesty the Emperor wants to compromise..." Niu Youdao gave the general situation.
After listening, Feng Entai said: "It would be a bit excessive to ask the princess for two million gold coins and one hundred thousand war horses. I think this compromise method is acceptable."
Niu Youdao was in a dilemma. Hearing this, he asked, "Brother Feng, do you think it's okay?"
Feng Entai: "Whether it's true or false, just go back and find someone who can tell the truth from the false to verify it. You won't lose anything by agreeing now."
Niu Youdao also had this idea, but he was wary of this sudden benefit. He turned around and asked Linghu Qiu, "What do you think, brother?"
Linghu Qiu hesitated and said, "I still need to think twice about this matter."
He also had doubts about such a big matter and did not dare to give advice easily.
No one could figure out what the emperor meant. None of them had ever been in contact with a person of the emperor's level, and the room fell into a dead silence.
Finally, Mrs. Pei broke the silence, "Brother Niu, the palace doesn't have the patience. They are still waiting for news from me."
Niu Youdao is hesitant and difficult to judge.
Feng Entai said: "Brother, please agree. As long as you handle this matter, your mission on Qi State's side will be completed. I, Tianyumen, will be responsible for Qi State's overseas transportation."
He knew that Niu Youdao was afraid of risks and did not dare to agree easily.
Niu Youdao was stunned. He didn't expect that he would say this. He turned around and asked, "Can your attitude represent Tianyumen?"
He had to ask this clearly. He wanted to satisfy the interests of the three sects by profiting from the share of drinks, and he also wanted to use this to support the Wuliangshan intelligence network.
"The sect has sent me to take charge here. I have the authority to make arbitrary decisions on behalf of the sect. You should know this and don't doubt it!" Feng Entai raised the ultimatum in his hand, "But there are two prerequisites. First of all, this The things are real, and besides, all these things must be handed over to my Tianyu Sect for disposal!"
As long as these exit permission documents are true, he wants to get them all!
The Tianyu Sect sent him here to preside over this matter. It took him so long, a huge amount of money was spent, and a lot of manpower was lost. After he returned, he was too embarrassed to face the sect. If he could get these things, what would happen later? Things will be much easier to handle.
Why is it easy? The reason is very simple! The exit documents for 100,000 war horses are relied on, but this thing can be used as a condition for customs clearance along the way.
The border to the east of Qi State is Zhao State. All we need to do is balance out the forces in the area through which the war horses are transported. Is it enough to send 50,000 war horses out to open up the joints with the exit documents for 100,000 war horses? If that doesn't work, you can just transport 20,000 horses back, and give the other 80,000 to others to open up the joints, okay
Everyone knows that the purchase of war horses within Qi State is actually not expensive. The key is the trouble of transporting them out of Qi State. This is a level that Qi State strictly controls with the power of the whole country. Most of the cost of war horses is due to this. , the herdsmen who really raise and sell horses can actually only make a small profit, and the big profits are taken by those powerful people.
Therefore, having the exit documents for these 100,000 war horses in hand is the biggest trump card. Tianyumen can come forward to negotiate with the forces along the way. If they get the benefits for free, the forces along the way have no reason not to agree.
As long as the number of war horses transported in batches is determined, the forces passing by know that even if they regret taking the war horses in front of them, the benefits given by Tianyumen are not as great, and then wait for the war horses to pass through the border before cashing in the benefits, then they will naturally have a smooth journey.
In this way, with the guarantees of various forces along the way, it is actually safer than taking the sea route. Although the price paid is high, the price is in vain.
Even if he can only get back 20,000 war horses, it is still better than the 10,000 war horses needed by the Shang Dynasty. It can also save Tianyumen a lot of money in Qi and along the way. In this way, not only can he not If you pass, you will have merit.
Let me ask, how could he not be moved by the exit documents for 100,000 war horses
Niu Youdao thought about it for a while and said in deep thought: "Since Brother Feng has said this, I have nothing to say. But brother, don't think that I speak harshly. After all, you are not the head of Peng. What you say is red lips and white teeth. It’s not weighty enough, I’m afraid it has to be implemented on paper to prove it, and you and I need to send the news back at the same time immediately to let your family know your decision, I don’t want to have any trouble afterwards!”
Feng Entai nodded slowly and solemnly: "This is natural. Since I have made this decision, I naturally have to bear this responsibility!"
Since he was willing to jump out and take the risk, Niu Youdao felt relaxed. He turned around and nodded to Mrs. Pei, "Okay! That's it. Get pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
"Yes!" Black Peony responded.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were quickly obtained. Niu Youdao started writing and implemented the agreed content on it. He wrote off the account with Hao Qingqing and promised that any future promises made by Hao Qingqing would not be counted.
Feng Entai, who was watching on the sidelines, interjected, "I should add another sentence. The premise is that this exit document will only count if it is genuine!"
Niu Youdao, who was holding the pen, looked at Mrs. Pei, who nodded, "Okay!"
So Niu Youdao wrote and added what Feng Entai said.
After finishing writing, he signed and signed, and at Mrs. Pei's instruction, his fingerprints and palm prints were taken.
Mrs. Pei checked the contract and after confirming that it was correct, she put it away and left immediately, "Everyone, if you are sorry for disturbing me, I have to go back and take my leave."
After seeing off the guests, Niu Youdao and Feng Entai signed a contract with each other, and finally all ten exit documents were handed over to Feng Entai.
To be honest, although the exit document for 100,000 war horses is not the real 100,000 war horses, it is definitely worth a lot of money. It is not even a matter of money for those in urgent need, so it was given to Tianyumen in vain. Niu Youdao felt somewhat regretful.
But he was thinking wisely. He could get a share of the drinks without doing anything, and it would save him the trouble in the future. There was nothing wrong with that. Being too greedy might not be a good thing...
Outside the mansion, Mrs. Pei and Chai Fei went out and flew directly over the capital in the night.
After landing outside the palace and about to enter the palace gate, Chai Fei couldn't help but ask, "Senior sister, the exit documents for these 100,000 war horses are not a trivial matter. What does your majesty mean by doing this?"
Lady Pei sighed: "I don't know either. It's hard to guess His Majesty's thoughts. Let's just do what we do."
The two of them walked to the palace gate and showed their pass cards to enter...
On the other side of the house, Feng Entai and Niu Youdao made things clear. After they both released Golden Wings and went back to report the news, Feng Entai took the ten ultimatums and left first, having no time to deal with it here.
Linghu Qiu watched Feng Entai leave and muttered: "I guess he will send another message to Tianyumen immediately, detailing his plan and asking Tianyumen to cooperate."
Glancing at Niu You, who was frowning beside him, he said, "You don't have to worry about anything. As long as the 100,000 yuan exit document is true, it will be too easy to open up the joints at the cost of sending 10,000 horses back to Qingshan County. As long as the 100,000 horses are sent back to Qingshan County, Once we enter the territory of Qi State, there will basically be no problems later. Feng Entai must have understood this and made this plan."
"I hope so!" Niu Youdao sighed. It really was wrong no matter how you looked at it, but after much deliberation, he couldn't think of any reason for the Emperor of Qi to target him in such a roundabout way. He couldn't reach the level of the Emperor of Qi. He didn't know the cause and effect at all, and there was no information for him to refer to, so he couldn't make any judgment.
So after thinking about it, I still felt uneasy, so I asked again, "Brother, what kind of person is the Emperor of Qi?"
Linghu Qiu knew what he meant and said hehe: "How can I be qualified to make friends with emperors of various countries? I have never even met Hao Yuntu. At most, I have some rumors. I can't figure out what kind of person he is. But I am sure He won't be the foolish king you suspect who can do stupid things, he won't be as messy as that eldest princess, and he will definitely be better than the emperor of Yan State. Look at the situation of Yan's domestic troubles and foreign invasion, and then look at the stable situation of Qi State. How can a foolish king control such a situation?"
Niu Youdao shook his head and said, "If you say that, wouldn't it make me more worried?"
"Your heart is unpredictable. We don't have a clue. What's more, things are already like this. It's useless to think too much. Just rest for now. I'll go back first." Linghu Qiu patted his shoulder and walked away with his big sleeves swinging. . ,.
