The envoys from various countries were silent.

They had to consider the consequences of offending Datang.

The Tang Dynasty, which had fire cannons, destroyed Tuyuhun with only 40,000 fire cannons. It was fully capable of starting a war with other countries.

"So, we have to buy it, right?"

Lu Dongzan said with a calm face.

Tubo has a high terrain since ancient times and has never worried about invasion from the Central Plains.

After Songtsen Gampo unified the plateau, Tibet had plans to invade the Tang Dynasty.

But before the plan was implemented, weapons as powerful as fire guns appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

Tubo personally experienced the power of fire cannons and knew that fire cannons were necessary to resist the Tang Dynasty.

In the end, everyone discussed and came up with the decision to buy Datang's fire gun.

Not long after, everyone made an appointment to meet Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan booked a private room on the fifth floor of the first-class building in the name of the emperor.

From here, Chang'an City is bustling with traffic and bustling, and you can have a panoramic view.

Representatives from various countries still saw the Tang Dynasty in such a comprehensive way, and couldn't help but feel yearning in their hearts.

This is the first time they have seen such a bustling scene, and they have never seen it in their own country.

"Is it lively?"

"This is Chang'an City, a place that many of you covet."

Fang Yuan sat down, drank wine and ate meat slowly.

It goes without saying that the ambitions of various countries are known, and there is no need to hide them.

Now, if I say it, I can still shock them and attack their ideas.

"Master Fang is joking, how dare we peek into Chang'an City."

"That's right, there are millions of lions in the Tang Dynasty. We can't even think about it."

"Yes, the Tang Dynasty has left us far behind now, and we are still worried that the Tang Dynasty will attack us."

The envoys from various countries withdrew their gazes and returned to their seats.

Everyone sat together, and the food and wine for the reception were already placed in front of them.

"Have you all thought about it?"

Fang Yuan said calmly.

"Master Fang, we have always wanted to buy fire guns."

"But we don't have that much money, so just buy part of it."

Lu Dongzan spoke on behalf of the envoys from various countries.

Fire guns of the Tang Dynasty were too expensive and they couldn't buy so many.

So we all agreed that I would buy a few hundred and study them carefully when I get back.

"Sorry, the minimum is two thousand. We won't buy it if it's too low. We won't make any money."

Fang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said.

Just kidding, it’s rare to find 14,000 low-quality fire guns, how can you not sell them all?

"Minimum two thousand?!"

"Master Fang, we don't have that much money."

Lu Dongzan and others were greatly embarrassed.

There is too much money and their country cannot afford it.

And I didn’t buy that much, it was a waste of money.

Because two thousand fire cannons could not be used to defend the Tang Dynasty, nor could they be used to attack neighboring countries.

"It doesn't matter, you can borrow it from Huaxia Bank."

"You are all envoys from various countries, just sign your names."

Fang Yuan chuckled.

It’s just money, nothing to borrow.

For Datang, there is no need to worry about these countries not repaying the money they borrowed.

If they don't return, they will be killed directly by the army, and the fire gun army will sweep across their country.

"Master Fang, we really don't need so many firecrackers. Two to three hundred are enough."

Messenger Xue Yantuo said sarcastically.

Envoys from other countries also nodded and were unwilling to borrow money from Datang.

Once the money is borrowed, it will be controlled by Datang from now on, and it will be difficult to be stable until the money is repaid.

"Sorry, no."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said firmly.

"I, we need to contact the king."

The envoys from various countries looked ugly, and in the end they could only delay for time.

The asking price is too high, they can't decide, and they don't want to make such a decision.

If they sign a loan with Datang without domestic consent, they will be blamed for anything that happens in the future.

"Whatever."

Fang Yuan said calmly.

Next, Fang Yuan continued to eat.

None of them left, and they left only after finishing their meal.

During this period, they asked Fang Yuan about the loan interest, time, etc.

Several days passed, and the envoys from various countries met with Fang Yuan again and agreed with Fang Yuan's opinion.

Yes, news came from their country that they agreed to purchase two thousand fire guns, but they only gave 10% and borrowed the remaining 90%.

Fang Yuan naturally has no objection to this.

And take them to the institute to see the firecrackers prepared for them.

Seeing the warehouse full of firecrackers, the dissatisfaction of the envoys from various countries disappeared a lot, and their eyes brightened.

The envoys from various countries stroked the fire gun one by one, feeling the coldness coming from the fire gun, and their bodies trembled slightly with excitement.

This is a firecracker!

A murderous firecracker!

But soon, someone discovered something was wrong.

"Master Fang, why is this firecracker rusty?"

The Japanese envoys first discovered it.

He carefully observed the firecrackers in the box and discovered the differences.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at the firecracker in the hand of the Japanese envoy, and then looked at Fang Yuan, asking Fang Yuan for an explanation.

"Some firecrackers have been stored for a long time, so there are slight rust spots."

Fang Yuan looked at Huo Gun and explained.

Everyone suddenly realized and agreed with this statement.

It is normal for ironware to develop rust spots after being stored for a long time.

"Here, why does my fire gun feel like it's going to fall apart?"

"I also have some problems with this one. It makes noises when shaken."

"This is the same for me. It feels obviously different than others. Isn't it an inferior product?"

Soon, envoys from various countries found some defective products in the box.

Instantly, several people had bad thoughts in their minds, that is, these firecrackers were defective products.

"You can't say that."

"There may be some minor problems among them, but they can be used normally."

"Also, to be honest, these are all the fire guns of the Tang Dynasty. I have no intention of fooling you."

Fang Yuan sighed and said.
