Chapter 293 Unpredictable King's Heart
Although the other party's words were ugly, Niu Youdao understood that what the other party said was indeed the truth. In the capital of Qi State, the emperor wanted him not to see the sun tomorrow.
Niu Youdao looked at the things in his hand, "Peony, please come to Linghuqiu and Feng Entai."
"Yes!" Black Peony responded.
Mrs. Pei said: "Does this kind of thing need other people to participate?"
Hei Mudan stopped at the sound and looked at Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao clapped the thing in his hand, "This is the first time I've seen this thing, how do I know if it's real or not?"
Mrs. Pei chuckled, "Can I get you a fake thing? If His Majesty the Emperor really wants to deal with you, do you need to make a detour?"
This is what made Niu Youdao tangled up. The benefits that came suddenly made him unbelievable. He wanted to give up, but he felt that His Majesty really didn't need to beat around the bush when dealing with him. He was on his territory, and it was too easy to deal with him.
If I think too much, it would be a pity to give up this valuable thing.
Niu Youdao still waved to Hei Mudan and asked him to invite the two of them.
Not long after, Linghuqiu and Feng Entai came. When they saw Mrs. Pei coming, they both looked at Niu Youdao with questioning eyes.
Niu Youdao handed the things to them, "The emperor of Qi wants to fulfill his promise for the princess. I have never seen this thing before. You can see if it is real or not."
After seeing what they got, they were both shocked. The one hundred thousand horses that the princess had just said during the day had really come!
Feng Entai was even more excited when he looked at the things in his hands, his eyes were already shining.
However, the two of them had never seen this thing before. Normally, the imperial court of the Qi State issued documents for the departure of war horses that were traded between countries, and most of the monks had never seen this thing.
Lady Pei shook her head when she saw their bewildered looks, "There's really no need to doubt it, it can't be faked, and there's no need to fool you with fake ones!"
Linghu Qiu asked Niu Youdao: "Brother, what's going on?"
"His Majesty the Emperor wants to make a compromise between the money the princess owes me and what she promised..." Niu Youdao explained the general situation.
After listening, Feng Entai said: "It's a bit too much to really ask the princess for two million gold coins and one hundred thousand horses. I think this compromise is fine."
Niu Youdao was in a dilemma, and asked, "Brother Feng thinks it's okay?"
Feng Entai: "Whether it's true or not, just go back and find someone who can tell the truth and verify it. You won't lose anything if you agree now."
Niu Youdao also had this idea, but he was wary of the sudden benefits, and turned around to ask Linghuqiu, "What do you think, brother?"
Linghu Qiu hesitated and said: "I need to think twice about this matter."
He also had doubts about such a big matter, and he didn't dare to give advice lightly.
No one could figure out what the emperor meant, and none of them had any contact with the emperor's level, so the house fell into dead silence.
In the end, it was Mrs. Pei who broke the silence, "Brother Niu, the palace doesn't have that patience. They are still waiting for news from me."
Niu Youdao hesitated.
Feng Entai said: "Brother, please agree. As long as you get this matter done, you will complete the task on Qi's side. Tianyumen will be responsible for the transportation outside Qi's borders."
He knew that Niu Youdao was afraid of the risk and dared not agree easily.
Niu Youdao was stunned, he didn't expect him to say this, he turned his head and asked, "Can your attitude represent Tianyumen?"
He had to ask clearly about this. He had to rely on the profit from the wine share to satisfy the interests of the three factions, and he also used it to support the Wuliangshan intelligence network.
"The Shimen sent me here to take charge. I have the right to act on behalf of the Shimen. You should know this, and you don't have to doubt it!" Feng Entai raised his hand in Chinese, "But there are two prerequisites. First, this thing must be true. In addition, all this stuff must be handed over to Tianyumen for disposal!"
As long as these exit permits are true, he wants to get them all!
It took so long for Tianyumen to send him here to preside over this matter. It cost a lot of money and lost a lot of manpower. After going back, he was ashamed to face the master. If he could get these things in his hands, the following things would be much easier.
Why is it easy? The reason is very simple! The exit document for 100,000 war horses is a reliance, and this thing can be used as a condition for customs clearance along the way.
After leaving Qi State, the border to the east is Zhao State. It is only necessary to balance the forces in the area where the horses are transported. Is it enough to send 50,000 horses out of the country for the exit certificate of 100,000 horses? If it’s really not possible, it’s okay to transport only 20,000 horses back, and give away all the other 80,000 horses to open up joints, okay?
Everyone knows that the purchase of war horses within the territory of Qi State is actually not expensive. The key is that it is troublesome to transport them out of the border of Qi State.
Therefore, having the exit documents for these 100,000 war horses is the biggest trump card. Tianyumen can come forward to negotiate with the forces that have passed along the way. The benefits of picking up for nothing, there is no reason why the forces that have passed along the way should not agree.
As long as the number of war horses to be transported in batches is confirmed, and the forces passing through know that even if they regret detaining the war horses in front of them, the benefits will not be as great as those offered by Tianyumen, and then wait for the war horses to pass through the border before cashing out the benefits, and they will naturally be able to travel all the way.
In this way, it is actually safer than going by sea with the guarantees of various forces along the way. Although the price paid is very high, the price was originally for nothing.
Even if he could only get back 20,000 war horses, it would still be better than the 10,000 war horses needed by Shang Dynasty Zong, and he could also save Tian Yumen a lot of expenses in Qi State and along the way.
Let me ask, how could he not be moved by the exit documents for the 100,000 war horses?
Niu Youdao pondered for a while, and pondered: "Since Brother Feng said that, I have nothing to say. But brother, don't think that my words are ugly. After all, you are not the head of Peng, and your red mouth and white teeth are not enough. I am afraid that it must be proved on paper. Moreover, you and I have to send news back at the same time at the same time, so that the family knows your decision. I don't want to talk about it afterwards!"
Feng Entai slowly nodded solemnly and said: "It's natural, since I made this decision, I naturally have to bear this responsibility!"
Since he was willing to jump out and take the risk, Niu Youdao felt relieved, and nodded to Mrs. Pei, "Okay! That's it, take the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
"Yes!" Hei Mudan responded and left.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were quickly obtained, and Niu Youdao picked up the pen and wrote the book, implementing the agreed content on it, and writing off Hao Qingqing's account, promising that any promises made by Hao Qingqing in the future would not be counted.
Feng Entai, who was on the sidelines, interjected, "It should be added, the premise is that the exit document is true!"
Niu Youdao, who was holding a pen, looked at Mrs. Pei, and Mrs. Pei nodded, "Yes!"
So Niu Youdao wrote and added what Feng Entai said.
After finishing writing, he signed his signature, and made fingerprints and palm prints under Mrs. Pei's gesture.
Mrs. Pei checked the contract, and after confirming that it was correct, she put it away and left immediately, "Everyone, I'm sorry to bother you, I have to go back and report, so I'm leaving!"
After seeing off the guests, Niu Youdao signed a contract with Feng Entai again, and finally all ten exit documents were handed over to Feng Entai.
To be honest, although the exit document for 100,000 war horses is not a real 100,000 war horses, it is definitely worth a lot, and it is not even a matter of money for those who need it urgently. Niu Youdao felt a little sorry for giving it to Tianyumen for nothing.
But he can think about it, he can divide the drinks into his hands without doing anything, and save follow-up troubles, there is nothing wrong with it, being too greedy may not be a good thing...
Outside the mansion, Mrs. Pei and Chai Fei went out and flew directly over the capital in the dark.
Landed outside the palace, and was about to enter the palace gate, Chai Fei still couldn't help asking, "Senior sister, the exit document for 100,000 horses is not a trivial matter, what does your majesty mean by doing this?"
Mrs. Pei sighed: "I don't know either, His Majesty's mind is hard to fathom, let's just do it."
The two walked to the palace gate, showed their pass tokens to enter...
On the other side of the house, Feng Entai and Niu Youdao clarified the matter, and after they both let go of the golden wings and went back to report, Feng Entai took the ten documents and left first, and he had no intention of dealing with it here.
Linghu Qiu watched Feng Entai leave, muttering in his mouth: "I guess he will send another message to Tianyumen immediately, explaining his plan in detail and asking Tianyumen to cooperate."
Niu Youdao glanced at the frowning Niu Youdao, "You don't have to worry about anything, as long as the 100,000 exit documents are true, it's too easy to get 10,000 war horses back to Qingshan County at the price of opening up joints. As long as they leave the territory of Qi State, there will basically be no problems later. Feng Entai must have understood this point and saved this plan."
"I hope so!" Niu Youdao sighed. No matter how you look at it, this matter is really wrong, but after much deliberation, he can't figure out why the emperor of Qi country should target him in such a way. He can't reach the height of the emperor of Qi country.
So after much deliberation, he was still uneasy, and asked again, "Brother, what kind of person is the Emperor of Qi?"
Linghu Qiu knew what he meant, and he said, "I'm not qualified to make friends with emperors from all over the world. I haven't even met Hao Yuntu. At most, it's just rumors. I can't figure out what kind of person he is. But it's definitely not the stupid king who you suspect can do stupid things. He won't act like the eldest princess, and he must be better than the emperor of Yan. Look at the domestic and foreign troubles in Yan, and look at the stable situation in Qi. How can a stupid king manage such a situation."
Niu Youdao shook his head and said, "Aren't I even more worried when you say that?"
"Your heart is unpredictable. We don't have any clues. What's more, things are already like this. It's useless to think too much. Let's rest first. I'll go back first." Linghu Qiu patted him on the shoulder, dangling his big sleeves and walking away.
