Chapter 58 Negotiation Failure

"Okay, this is considered a success." Zhi Pengya looked at everyone's admiring eyes and was very proud. Fortunately, I often check the post.

Zhi Pengwei asked someone to polish the glass. He planned to use this piece of glass to make a mirror. Well, he already had a gift for his next trip. To make a mirror, he also needed two raw materials: mercury and tinfoil.

It is basically impossible to find natural mercury mines. Mercury is volatile. Natural mercury has basically evaporated. The only way is to make alchemy. In ancient China, most alchemy was made with cinnabar. What is refined from cinnabar is mercury. Mercury has

It is highly toxic and volatile. If things go on like this, you will die from mercury poisoning.

Nowadays, you can use cinnabar to extract mercury to make a mirror. As long as you pay attention to sealing it, it is very safe. As for tinfoil, the composition of bronze is a mixture of tin and copper. This means that people can already refine tin at this time, but no one has

It is used to make tinfoil, and the principle of making mirrors is that mercury reacts with tin to form tin amalgam, which sticks firmly to the glass and can also act as a mirror.

I didn’t make the mercury from cinnabar myself to make Pengya. There are also alchemists in China. Just let them make the mercury. If it can be made at once, do you need to test it again and again?

On February 5, the 23rd year of Zhizheng, the officials who visited Khmer returned to China and learned that they were Khmer officials from Champa. Khmer officials from top to bottom scolded them. They were angry and angry.

Chu Sa, it was obviously you who didn’t want us in the first place, but now you blame us for being unpatriotic.

Despite the scolding, they still told the Khmer King Suryedie about human trafficking. They didn't take it seriously. Even the people of his country didn't care. They said this: They didn't care either.

They must have been trafficked. What if their parents sold their children? Besides, they are selling slaves. Why are you meddling in their own business?

Zhi Pengya looked very ugly when he heard that, and sighed: "No wonder the Khmer Empire is weakening. How can it not be weakened by doing things like this?" The whole court attacked their compatriots, and they would eventually lose the support of the people.

"If they don't care, we will." He decided to visit the Khmer Cham people today. He had visited them several times before, always to comfort them. After all, although this was their homeland, their

My hometown is far away, I don’t know where.

"That's how it is." Zhi Pengma sighed. He had already told these people the whole process of this visit.

Those people looked unsurprised, and Zhi Pengya asked: "It seems you are not surprised."

Then someone said: "Almost all the Cham people live inside and outside our Cham County, and the Khmer king arranged for Khmer officials to govern us. We have been oppressed by those people for a long time, and our taxes are lower than those of other normal Khmer people."

People are much taller."

"I didn't expect that our compatriots would suffer such a catastrophic disaster." Zhi Pengya sighed, and other Cham officials also looked angry.

Zhi Pengya hesitated and said, "If you don't mind, you can live here in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." They all knelt down to express their gratitude, and then they said, "I hope that Your Majesty will rescue them from the sea of ​​suffering. They are your people just like us. You must save them."

Zhi Pengya promised with all his heart: "Don't worry, we will find a way to get rid of them."

"You have time to go to the Vijaya government to register your household registration. The officials there will arrange everything," Zhipeng said.

The next day, Zhi Pengya directly summoned all officials. Everyone realized the urgency of the matter. In the past year, except for New Year's Eve, there had not been such a large-scale gathering.

Zhipenggao said: "I called you here because I want to see what everyone thinks about the Khmer Cham people. Everyone knows that our diplomats are humiliated by other countries, which is an insult to our country. I went to visit yesterday afternoon

Those Khmer Cham people say that our compatriots are not living a good life in Khmer and have been oppressed, and we must save them."

"His Majesty's position is our position, and our compatriots must be brought out."

"Yes." Everyone agreed. Foreign officials who usually do not express their stance seemed to be exaggerated at this time, and they rarely expressed their stance.

Zhi Pengya nodded and said, "Since everyone agrees, what method do you think is best to use to get them out?"

Maya Kuiyuduo said: "Your Majesty, my suggestion is to send troops directly to take back Zhanxian County." Maya Kuiyuduo is a hawk. It should be said that most of the generals are hawks, and they all advocate using force to solve the problem.

Zhi Pengya did not respond, he was waiting for other people's suggestions.

"Your Majesty, why don't we negotiate with the Khmer and extradite them back to the country?" At this time, another person expressed his opinion.

Zhipengya did not respond to him. In their view, these methods were inappropriate. If war was declared on the Khmer in the name of saving compatriots, it is difficult to determine whether other countries would form an alliance to counterattack him in order to prevent the expansion of Champa.

, once lost, Priyango will definitely lose it, and Panduranga and Vijaya are also in danger. As for negotiating with the Khmers, given their arrogant appearance before, there is a high probability that they will not help.

, maybe there will be vigilance.

Zheng Shijian, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, said: "Didn't we start the newspaper? At present, the sales volume of Zhan Bao in China is very stable. Others have founded local newspapers, but the sales volume cannot keep up with ours. What I mean is why we put Zhan Bao

Promote it to other countries so that our divination newspapers will have a certain influence in other countries. When the time comes, we will publish information about looking for divination people in newspapers, and when they come to our door, we will take them back directly."

Zhi Pengyi nodded, this plan was the most reasonable one he had heard so far, and said: "Yes, let's adopt Xiao Zheng's opinion. What do you think?"

"Agree." Even those who objected didn't say anything at this time. Zhi Pengya already agreed to the plan.

At this time, Zheng Shijian fell into a state of doubting his life: He called me Xiao Zheng, but His Majesty actually called me Xiao Zheng.

"Since everyone agrees, let's adjourn the meeting." Zhi Pengya stood up and said.

So everyone present left one after another. They still had their own work to be busy with.

Zhi Pengxiao watched everyone leave. Just as he was about to leave, he found Zheng Shijian still sitting there.

This young man must be in a daze. Zhi Pengya saw that he was in a daze, so he went up and patted Zheng Shijian. Only then did Zheng Shijian come back to his senses. Looking at the conference room where he was the only one, he scratched his head blankly.

, where are the people?

"Xiao Zheng, the meeting has ended, it's time to go back," said Zhi Peng.
Chapter completed!
