"How can Wanyan Pingqiu have so many people?" Xiao Chen said, "I still know the situation in Northern Xinjiang very well. There are only a hundred thousand cavalry at most. The rest must be Gaoju beauties, right? That's right.
Yes, you have invaded other people's land, why can't they all fight for their lives with you?"
"But there are also you Yanyun soldiers among them!" Nako Kudo said.
"There must be some. When the North Border Guard was established, Wanyan Pingqiu insisted on me sending people. I had no choice but to give 5,000 people. Who would have thought that this is a meat bun beating a dog, and he won't come back.
!" Xiao Chen expressed that he was also very depressed and angry, "But please don't worry, I will never give him a soldier again!"
Xiao Chen only said he wouldn't give Wanyan troops and horses, but he didn't say he wouldn't give him anything else...
But no matter what Xiao Chen gave Wanyan, it was definitely not as beneficial as what he gave to Japan. Japan benefited a lot from coal alone, not to mention other various trade surpluses.
So in a sense, Xiao Chen is their God of Wealth!
Without the continuous support of Yanyun County's coal, half of their steelmaking plants might close down, which would be a very fatal thing.
In addition, Yanyun County has successively discovered several metal mineral deposits, and the reserves are extremely rich. Now the two parties have joined forces to start development, which will also greatly alleviate Japan's urgent domestic demand for these metals.
Xiao Chenjun is a good person in every aspect, honest and loyal, generous and generous, but he is very stubborn when it comes to territorial sovereignty. No matter how they coerce and induce him, they cannot make him give in.
Maybe Japan still needs to reconsider the way of getting along with him, or reconsider the choice of governor of Yanyun County. Of course, the Japanese people cannot decide whether Xiao Chen will stay or go, but they can secretly manipulate this matter in other ways...
"Xiao Chenjun, if we need you to mediate the war in Gao Juli, are you willing to help?" This is the purpose of Kudo Nako's visit.
What she conveyed was the intention of the Japanese high-level officials, but it was not formal. To put it bluntly, it was to test Xiao Chen's attitude, so that there would be a lot of room for maneuver in the future. This was also one of the reasons why Kudo Nako stayed in Changshan.
"Of course I do." Xiao Chen's attitude was very clear.
"Then if Wanyan Pingqiu doesn't agree to the peace talks, will you send troops to mediate?" Nako Kudo asked timidly.
"Of course it won't happen... Naiko, go back and tell them not to always treat me like a child." Xiao Chen was speechless.
"I knew you wouldn't." Nako sighed, "But if you are willing to send troops to mediate, we are willing to cede part of Gao Juli's land to you. We can send someone to discuss the specific matters with you in detail."
"Haha, give it to me? Or to Dazhou?" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. He didn't expect Japanese people to be so naive. Or do they think I, Xiao Chen, am naive?
Have I been too friendly towards you all this time, so that you always want to play with me?
"Is there any difference?" Nako Kudo asked innocently.
"Naiko, I don't think the two of us should discuss this boring issue." Xiao Chen said, "I will never send troops to Gao Juli to help either of you. Please let them give up this ridiculous idea completely."
"Then the Russians..." Kudo Nako actually didn't want to discuss this with Xiao Chen, she was just following orders.
"Nako, let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. I like you and Miyamoto, but I don't like your Emperor Shen Zhao and the Japanese government. I also like to be friends with Gavsky or other Russians.
But I don’t like Queen Ross and her ministers either. Can you understand what I say?” Xiao Chen said.
"Xiao Chen-kun, you are really a terrible person." Kudo Nako once again refreshed her understanding of Xiao Chen.
"Actually, I'm not scary at all. What's scary is them." Xiao Chen said, "I'm just trying to survive, but they always want to make me their mortal enemy. Maybe the law of the jungle is the basic law of this world. For this reason
I was forced to do things I didn't want to do."
Originally, Xiao Chen only wanted a beautiful wife and concubine, a wealthy family, a wealthy family, and a happy life.
They were all forced by you!
Kudo Nako was in a hurry to go back and deliver the message and refused Xiao Chen's lunch invitation. In fact, she was too preoccupied to eat.
But he was afraid that Xiao Chen would misunderstand that he didn't want to have dinner with him, so he said that he could make an appointment for dinner during his next break. During the day, he really didn't have much time.
Kudo Nako may not be an excellent diplomat, but she is definitely an excellent teacher.
Because she loves this job.
Unlike Qianye Ling, Qianye Ling had no interest in teachers, especially when she met Shangguan Qiji, an unlucky student with whom she would be angry every day.
So when Xiao Chen heard the heavy footsteps of the fat man walking in, he knew that he was being trained by the teacher again, "You said you are the same, otherwise you don't learn, if you want to learn, just learn hard... What's wrong with your face?"
?”
There was a small palm print on one side of Shangguan Qiji's face. If Xiao Chen guessed correctly, he should have been beaten.
"Don't touch it! I don't even want to wash it!" Shangguan Qiji said, "This is what Qianye gave me, a mark of love."
"Damn it, her love for you is deep enough!" Xiao Chen sighed in admiration, "What's the reason for this time?"
"It's not because you're a brat!" Shangguan Qiji came to show off to Xiao Chen, and also asked him to accuse him. It's all your fault for saying nonsense about 'not seeing each other at first sight', which caused me trouble when I was explaining to Qianye.
, causing her to misunderstand.
"Isn't that a slip of the tongue?" Xiao Chen was amused, "Didn't you say that your kid was looking for a beating? He deserves it!"
"However, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer." Shangguan Qiji smiled shamelessly, "But let me tell you, Qianye's attack this time is much gentler than usual. Do you think she feels sorry for me?
"
"Damn it, please don't disgust me!" Xiao Chen made a vomiting gesture.
The two brothers were chatting and joking when suddenly someone came outside to report that it was a man who called himself Wu Xiuping and wanted to see him.
There are many people who come to see Xiao Chen every day, but of course there are only a few who can see him. Otherwise, he would not do anything else all day long, just meet people.
Some local officials from Yanyun came to pay homage as a courtesy when they were on business in the county. The concierge registered the greetings and sent them away directly.
There were also some officials who came from Da Zhou to handle matters, and naturally wanted to pay homage to him, so Xu Wenzhou dealt with them directly.
There were also many literati, foreign friends, casual people, etc. who came here because of his reputation, and they were all received by Xu Wenzhou.
Therefore, those who came directly to notify Xiao Chen were the ones Xu Wenzhou didn't know how to handle or couldn't handle.
Wu Xiuping was probably in his thirties, and he was just an ordinary person, the kind of person you wouldn't find in a crowd.
Moreover, his eyesight was not very good, he was always squinting, and he almost fell down when he entered the door. Xiao Chen thought he was going to kneel down and worship...
