"There's no problem with me. I'll go see Na Baili early tomorrow morning and inform Xi Penglai of your decision so that they can prepare early."
Li Mu looked at Huangfu Qing in the mirror magic weapon and agreed. Although he had guessed that his suggestions and ideas would be adopted before, he did not expect that the other party would act so resolutely. You must know that this is not a child's game of playing house, but
A true life-and-death battle between two countries risking everything.
"Miss Qing, you should also pay attention to your rest. The empire has endless things to do. You don't need to push yourself too hard. I believe that Sect Master Yun and the Liu family will help you."
When the business came to an end, Huangfu Qing on the other side of the mirror naturally raised her hand and rubbed her head. No matter how much makeup she wore, she could not hide the tiredness on her face. In order to lead the Cangyun Empire to rise again, this talented person had to
A woman who has spent ten years has paid too much.
"I'm fine. Don't worry. Sect Master Yun and Marshal Liu both support me. As long as I win this battle, I believe that the Cangyun Empire can at least strive for fifty years of peace. You should also pay attention to safety when you are adventuring outside. Those black robes
People are more cautious than before, and maybe they are planning something big again."
The two of them were chatting like friends. There was no superior empress, only Xiaoqing who was grabbed by Li Mu when she looked confused in the Yaolu. There was no "savior" who was responsible for saving the three worlds from the crisis.
What a different young man.
This is the few free time Huangfu Qing and Li Mu have now. When the call ends and they turn around again, they will pick up the "heavy armor" given by their responsibility, carrying the eager expectations of countless people, step by step
Climb the heights of faith.
The first ray of sunshine in the morning shone through the clouds, and the people of Honda City who got up early began to work and live for the day. Li Mu, who put on the traditional clothes of the Cangyun Empire, opened the door. Today, he is no longer
The unrestrained monk will represent his motherland in a negotiation with an unknown outcome.
The Lord's Palace of Honda City has been transformed by Baili into the temporary command post of Nishihorai. In order to save expenses and not occupy too much original civilian resources, more than a dozen departments, large and small, have been arranged in this five-story official residence.
.
Coupled with the necessary defense force camps, this made the originally spacious mansion seem a bit overcrowded. Moreover, the old lord of Honda City was famous for his integrity. Not to mention the luxurious decorations in the mansion, even the basic daily necessities were not there.
Very few.
But these are nothing to Baili, who was born in a civilian family. He took Shen Bairu and others to move into this small building, where they could eat, drink, and have sex. He worked more than ten hours a day, so he could forget about food and sleep.
to describe.
The lord's hard work soon infected a group of officials who had left old Penglai for their ideals. They all rolled up their sleeves and geared up, vowing to build a new Penglai fairyland with Baili.
In terms of senior management, Shen Bairu is responsible for the city's land acquisition and people's livelihood arrangements in Xi Penglai. Zuoqiu, Murong and Sun Zhong are responsible for the recruitment and training of the monks. Baili himself is in charge of the overall situation and the most difficult frontline battles.
So when Li Mu stepped into the city lord's palace, no one noticed him as a "stranger" except for the soldiers in charge of security who checked the token in his hand. Everyone was in a hurry, holding various documents.
Walking through the corridors.
"Master Li, please come this way."
After half a stick of incense, Li Mu, who was sitting on the side of the corridor, was getting a little impatient when a woman wearing a sharp military uniform came to greet her.
Although he was a little dissatisfied with Xi Penglai's "slowness", Li Mu also understood that important matters were important, and in this short waiting time, he also saw that the entire Xi Penglai's operation system was extremely complete.
The cooperation between various departments makes the work efficiency extremely high, and there are no barriers and suspicions among colleagues. Everyone seems to be twisted into a rope and work together towards a goal.
"Master Li, I'm really sorry just now. I feel that nothing can be said without proof, so I want you to see with your own eyes the essential difference between us and old Penglai, so I took the liberty to let you sit down for a while."
Entering the conference hall, Li Mu saw the senior executives of Xi Penglai sitting around a long table. The one in the middle was naturally Baili, and the woman next to him on the left was Shen Bairu.
As for the other three people, they are Taoist Zuoqiu, Sun Zhonghuan and Murong Bin. These three former Penglai Ten guys are all "old acquaintances" of Li Mu. They had fought against each other in the battle of Qinglan City, especially Taoist Zuoqiu. , once tried to kill Li Mu on the East China Sea, but was finally pressed to the ground by Ancestor Ling and rubbed against him.
Li Mu smiled slightly. He actually guessed Baili's intention. The power department of any country can reflect the style of the ruler.
The system established by Xi Penglai is indeed many times more sophisticated than the previous redundant and inefficient system of the old era. The official atmosphere in the hall just now made Li Mu feel like he had returned to his previous life to work in a government agency.
"Brother Baili made a strong statement, but it did let me see the vigorous vitality of Xipenglai. With the cooperation of everyone here, I think we will be able to achieve a satisfactory result today."
Li Mu's words were neither humble nor arrogant. He had changed his role into a special envoy representing the Cangyun Empire. Even if he faced five superpowers who had transcended the Tribulation Realm, he would still be like those heroic diplomats of the Republic in his previous life. Always stand up straight.
A meeting to decide the fate of tens of millions of people began. Li Mu had already confirmed the caliber and bottom line of the Cangyun Empire with Huangfu Qing, and at the beginning he put forward new requirements for Baili's previous conditions.
"Time is running out, and I won't be polite to you all. Our Cangyun Empire is willing to send troops to assist West Penglai. The total reinforcements will be no less than 100,000 people. The strategic goal is tentatively set to conquer Penglai City and capture East Penglai led by Sikong and Katori. High-level.”
Li Mu's words made the five people present look happy. This was the result they were most willing to hear. It meant that Xi Penglai was finally no longer isolated and helpless. The addition of 100,000 troops was enough to make them challenge with "blood." "Sikong is secretly supported by the organization.
"However, we also have our own conditions. The first one is that the New Penglai Immortal Kingdom will unconditionally open the right to use the port to the merchant ships of the Cangyun Empire permanently. The second one is that the New Penglai Immortal Kingdom will reduce the tax rate on all goods from the Cangyun Empire by 50%. Article 3, the two countries form a military alliance, Article 4,..."
Li Mu made demands one after another, covering almost all areas of trade, culture and science and technology between the two countries. Although Baili and others were mentally prepared, they were still frightened by the cooperation agreement drawn up by Huangfu Qing. Difficult color.
"The above is the general content of the agreement. If you have no objections, you can draft a detailed agreement document. It will take effect immediately after our empress signs it, and we will also formally declare war on Dong Penglai."
Li Mu did not ask Baili and others to give an immediate reply. He also knew very well that negotiations of this level between the two countries must leave enough room for the opponent to think and bargain.
So after saying that, they stood up and said goodbye, leaving the five of them looking at each other. I am afraid they will have to stay up all night over these terms in the past few days.
