Niu Yang and Gao Nian were playing chess under the tree in the backyard when Tian Liang came over to say that Deshan was here.
After leaving the chess pieces behind, they went to the front hall and saw Deshan sitting there drinking tea alone.
"Master, why come alone?"
Niu Yang was a little surprised. A person like Deshan should have followers.
Deshan was a little embarrassed by the question and said: "It's faster to ride a horse alone, and it's useless for them to follow."
After the two elders sat down, Tian Liang asked the others to go out.
"Master, when you come here, you must have already discussed it."
Niu Yang said with a smile.
Deshan smiled and said: "I have reported it to the king, but there are some things that need the support of the two elders."
Gao Nian said: "Master, please tell me directly."
Deshan explained what Shi Le meant.
After listening, Niu Yang looked at Gao Nian with a troubled face and said: "Master, if you cut the price in half, Long Chengen may not agree."
"Your Xixia treasury income is less than 300,000 gold coins a year, and you borrowed 3.5 million gold coins at a time. How can you repay it?"
"Also, since you plan to compensate 3 million gold coins, why did you borrow 3.5 million gold coins?"
The world will know clearly how much Xixia's treasury income is in a year.
Deshan said: "The poor monk also knows this, but there is really no way now. The national treasury is empty and there is no way to pay the huge ransom."
"Long Chengen is such a big talker, he won't be able to do anything less."
"We in Xixia have also suffered heavy losses this time. The domestic government still needs gold coins to support it, so I would like to borrow money as well."
"I have no choice but to speak to the two elders."
Gao Nian looked at Niu Yang and shook his head slightly.
When Deshan saw Gao Nian shaking his head, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that things were about to go wrong.
Niu Yang thought for a long time and said: "The amount is too high, I want to report it to the president for a decision."
"Master is staying here temporarily. I will reply to you as soon as I get a reply."
Deshan had no choice but to stay at the entrance of the hall.
Returning to the backyard, Gao Nian said: "Old Niu, 3.5 million gold coins, this is a huge amount of hospitality, and Xixia cannot even match it."
Niu Yang smiled and said: "The money is not borrowed in vain. As long as the Xixia Dynasty is still there, you can pay it back slowly with a lot of interest."
"It will take at least 30 years to repay this debt, or even longer. By then, Xixia will be the leader of our world."
Gao Nian suddenly said: "So you had this idea! Yes, I will lend him 3.5 million and pay him back in 30 years. With interest, he will pay back at least 6 million!"
Niu Yang smiled and said: "This is called a hugely profitable deal. Long Chengen is really a good customer of ours. He sent you a good deal."
"I will send a letter to the young master immediately and wait for his reply before I agree."
Niu Yang immediately wrote a letter and then sent it to the headquarters by flying eagle.
A villa facing the water outside the capital city.
Ji Ba was sitting in the shade of a tree fishing, a beautiful girl was spraying jade dew incense to drive away mosquitoes, and a beautiful girl was kneeling on the ground holding melons and fruits.
Yan Xing hurried over with a letter and said: "President, the great elder sent an urgent letter from Xifeng City."
Ji Ba planted the fishing rod on the ground, picked up the letter, read it, and said with a smile, "Yes, it's a good deal."
"This battle has allowed me to completely control Xixia. Long Chengen has given me a generous gift!"
"Get a pen and paper!"
Yan Xing immediately took out pen and paper from his suitcase and set up another table.
"I don't need a wolf brush!"
Yan Xing brought a wolf-hair pen over, and Ji Ba was very angry.
"Subordinates deserve to die!"
Yan Xing immediately changed his brush.
Ji Ba took the brush and asked coldly: "Where is Zhou Zheng! Why is he always missing?"
Yan Xing said: "I had diarrhea again last night and I was still lying on the bed."
Ji Ba cursed: "Trash!"
After writing a reply, Yan Xing immediately sent it to Xifeng City.
Xifeng City.
Deshan stayed at the entrance of the hall for several days, thinking about the ransom all the time. He couldn't eat well or sleep well. He walked around the door all day long.
Tian Liang came over in a hurry. Deshan saw him and asked quickly: "Master, has the reply arrived?"
Tian Liang raised his hand and wrote back, saying: "Just arrived, please wait!"
Tian Liang didn't know the content of the letter and couldn't answer Deshan's questions.
Deshan was overjoyed and followed Tian Liang to the backyard.
When they arrived at the backyard, Tian Liang handed the letter to Niu Yang: "Just arrived!"
Deshan stepped back a little and looked at Niu Yang anxiously.
Opening the letter, Niu Yang looked happy and said with a smile: "Master, the president has agreed, but we have to agree on the interest."
Deshan was overjoyed and said: "It's easy to talk about. Thank you very much, President, for your support!"
Xixia only wants money and doesn't care about interest at all.
Anyway, I was almost dying of thirst, so I drank the poison.
Niu Yang ordered: "Tian Liang, draft a loan document!"
Tian Liang immediately went back to his room to draft a loan document and then took it to the backyard.
"Master, please take a look."
Deshan lay on the table, looked at it carefully, and said gratefully: "Thank you, elder!"
The interest was set in the document and Xixia was asked to pay it back in 30 years. Deshan felt that the world would be great.
"I said, we are for Xixia and we will not embarrass you."
"If there is no problem, let's sign it!"
Niu Yang first signed and stamped the document, and Deshan followed suit.
Just like that, a document was signed.
"Okay, now that we have the money, let's talk to Long Chengen."
Niu Yang was very happy, but Deshan was worried: "What if Long Chengen refuses to agree?"
Gao Nian said: "No need to worry, we have the final say in everything and we will ensure that you can succeed."
Deshan said happily: "Thank you very much, elder!"
The three of them immediately went to Jade Buddha Pass.
When they arrived at Jade Buddha Pass, Long Chen was already waiting.
"Elder, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Long Chen sat down at the main seat, Niu Yang and Gao Nian sat at the guest seats on the left, and Deshan sat at the guest seat on the right.
Wu Jian and Zhang Qian stood behind them, the soldiers served tea, and the negotiation continued.
"Let me tell you, Xixia wanted to agree to the Dazhu Kingdom Armor for 6.5 million gold coins, but was financially constrained and could not give that much. It wanted to redeem the Zhenguo Temple for 3 million gold coins."
Before Niu Yang could finish speaking, Long Chen stood up, pointed at Deshan, and cursed: "Bald Donkey, I'll let you out of seclusion. Go back and tell Shi Le immediately that you don't want Zhenguo Temple anymore!"
Deshan was very angry when he was scolded. He had been respected by others all his life and had never been treated with such cowardice.
"If you die, eunuch, just beat him. Lord Buddha is not afraid of you!"
The soldiers outside the door heard the noise and immediately blocked the door.
Niu Yang advised: "You two, be patient and don't be impatient, be patient and don't be impatient! Listen to me!"
Long Chen sat down patiently, and Deshan also suppressed his anger and sat down.
"This price is indeed much less than the asking price of Dazhu Kingdom, but Xixia really can't afford the money. The world will still borrow these 3 million gold coins."
Niu Yang had no choice but to tell the truth.
Of course, Niu Yang also has his own plans.
Gao Nian also said: "It's true, Xixia really has no money."
Long Chen looked at Deshan, thought for a moment, and said: "That's too little. I think it's like this, I'll pay 3 million gold coins first, and then pay another 3 million gold coins in 10 years!"
