    ¡¾People who studied history later said that the rise of the Qixia Kingdom began with the Treaty of Huaishan Pass.  From this moment on, the monster of capital officially showed its greedy fangs]

    But after Zhang Hao and others entered the hall, Zhang Hao took out a small wooden man to demonstrate to Zhao Huaiyun, the prince of Jinyang Kingdom, so much so that Zhao Huaiyun even forgot to show his proper demeanor:

    He should welcome you with a smile.

    It wasn¡¯t until Wei Zirong, the young master of the prince next to him, reminded him that Zhao Huaiyun finally realized what he was doing. He quickly smiled and said a few words.

    ??We sat on both sides, those from the Kingdom of Qixia sat in the west, and those from the Kingdom of Jinyang sat in the east.

    When I introduced myself, there were only three people from Qixia Kingdom, Zhang Hao, and the rest were followers and no separate introduction was needed.

    There are many in the Kingdom of Jinyang.  Prince Zhao Huaiyun, Prince Shaofu Wei Zirong, Imperial Guard Zuo General He Dongxuan, Huaishan Pass Guard General Ma Kui, Zhenxi General Zhou Chengde, and Prime Minister Pang Chong.  There are six main personnel, which is exactly twice the number of Qixia Country.

    ??Also, the one sitting on the side with a cold face and said nothing is Taoist Master Dingshan.  But now there is a Bagua mark hovering slowly between the eyebrows of the Dingshan Taoist Priest.

    Taoist Master Dingshan and Feng Zhiling sat face to face. They did not directly participate in the negotiations, but only served as witnesses and supervision.  Because Zhang Hao insisted that Taoist Dingshan had intervened in the war between the Kingdom of Qixia and the Kingdom of Jinyang, all issues regarding Taoist Dingshan were included in this negotiation.

    As soon as the negotiation started, Zhang Hao slammed the table, and the loud sound made everyone tremble.  Who would have thought that Zhang Hao would start banging the table just after the negotiation started.

    Didn¡¯t you say that you should test it first?

    However, Zhang Hao looked stern and straight to the point: "Everyone, this time the invasion war brazenly launched by the Kingdom of Jinyang has brought immeasurable harm and destruction to the Kingdom of Qixia, and it has also destroyed the three thousand years of friendship between the two countries!

    I don¡¯t know what you are thinking, but this war has broken the hearts of the Kingdom of Qixia.  When we left, His Majesty repeatedly told us that we must try our best to maintain the friendship between the two countries.

    The war can no longer be fought.  Otherwise, I'm afraid that before the West is unified, we will have collapsed, taking advantage of the East!

    Everyone, what do you think?  "

    The representatives of the Kingdom of Jinyang were confused. This sudden negotiation made everyone a little confused - in the past, they were fighting back and forth, and they took care of themselves whether they won or lost. Today, there was actually a negotiation.  negotiation.  Negotiations aside, Zhang Hao banged the table and talked about the friendship between the two countries.

    Damn it, Zhang Hao, what tricks are you playing?

    Finally, Prime Minister Pang Chong responded faster. He slowly and carefully asked tentatively: "Zhang Hao, I also believe that in the face of the oppression from the East, we must cooperate in order to fight against the East."

    Zhang Hao nodded: "I agree. But if you want to cooperate, you must first repair the friendship between us!"

    After a short pause, Zhang Haozhi came up with a plan and read it loudly: "According to our statistics, the invasion of Jinyang Kingdom resulted in the death of 580,000 soldiers of Qixia Kingdom, more than 1.2 million civilian casualties, and direct economic losses of more than 1.2 million.  16 million high-grade spiritual stones, and indirect economic losses were as high as 22 million high-grade spiritual stones. It caused huge damage to society.

    Among them, the Kingdom of Jinyang unilaterally reneged on the engagement, causing huge scars on the relationship between the two countries.

    During the war, the first emperor, prince and second prince of Qixia Kingdom died, and the whole country mourned.

    After our internal discussions, the Country of Qixia has put forward the following ¡®suggestions¡¯ to repair the friendship between the two countries.

    First, compensate the country of Qixia for its economic losses of 38 million high-grade spiritual stones.

    Second, cede Yunhai County to compensate for the population loss of Qixia Kingdom.

    Third, a total of 10 cities, including Jiangling City, will be opened as trading ports between the two countries, allowing people from the Kingdom of Qixia to travel freely without collecting taxes.

    Fourth, if a person from the Kingdom of Qixia makes a mistake in the Kingdom of Jinyang, he must be tried according to the laws of the Kingdom of Qixia, and your country is not allowed to deal with it privately.

    Fifth, the two sides have established friendly trade relations, and neither side shall deduct or intercept the goods of both sides under any pretext.

    Sixth, the prince of your country needs to go to the country of Qixia and apologize to the queen in person for unilaterally breaking the contract.

    Seventh, in thirty days, the country of Qixia will hold a state funeral, including the funeral of the late emperor, the prince, the second prince, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers who died in the war. The prince of your country needs to attend, apologize at the state funeral, and admit the mistakes of the war.

    Eighth, open the right to build roads.  Our country will build a major road from the shore of the West Sea in the Kingdom of Qixia to Qiuxia?, barely retaining the prince¡¯s face.

    The next most intense negotiation is the right to build roads.  On this point, the Kingdom of Jinyang and even the Kingdom of Qixia do not know enough about the road; but this does not hinder the negotiation. Since the Kingdom of Qixia can propose it alone, it must be important.  Zhang Hao, on the other hand, understood the significance of a large artery and did not relax.

    After intense exchanges, the Kingdom of Qixia made concessions and reduced the time from a hundred years to sixty years; but the toll increased to 1.8 times the original.  Moreover, the Kingdom of Jinyang must bear the responsibility for road safety.  Sixty years later, the road was handed over to the Kingdom of Jinyang.

    Finally, we come to the most thorny issue¡ªSenior Liu Dingshan¡¯s mental damage compensation!  A total of 30 million high-grade spiritual stones, this is a real lion's mouth.  But both parties in the negotiation knew very clearly - these 30 million high-grade spiritual stones were the Xuanzhen Sect's asking price for the Xiaoyao Sect.

    Since you Xiaoyao faction dare to reach out, you must be prepared to have your claws chopped off.  Want to escape unscathed?  impossible!

    Taoist Priest Dingshan looked at the ray of spiritual thought that had trapped him, and he wanted to snatch it away.  But the faint breath coming from above his head made him dare not act rashly.

    Although he is now under the Soul-Sealing Curse, his intuition from the divine transformation stage is still there.

    We are already negotiating now. If we try to snatch it now, the Xuanzhen Sect may really kill him.  At that time, Xiaoyao Sect could only bite the bullet and admit it.

    But the negotiations regarding the compensation for these 30 million high-grade spiritual stones were very difficult.  Zhang Hao insisted on this.  Because this time, what Zhang Hao represents is no longer the Kingdom of Qixia, but the Xuanzhen Sect.

    Although the name of the fight is Liu Dingshan's, it is actually the Xuanzhen Sect's warning to the Xiaoyao Sect and a counterattack against the Xiaoyao Sect's random hands.  For this negotiation, the Kingdom of Qixia launched another raid on the third night of the negotiation.

    In Zhang Hao¡¯s words: Victory that cannot be achieved at the negotiation table must be achieved on the battlefield!  If your Kingdom of Jinyang does not want to restore friendship with our Kingdom of Qixia, and if you cannot show enough sincerity, then we don¡¯t mind taking it by force!

    Don¡¯t doubt the military power of the Qixia Kingdom now.  Ever since the industrial and commercial class came to power, and since Liu Xinyu ascended the throne and promulgated the constitution, the industrial and commercial class in Qixia Kingdom has been very active.  They quickly replaced the original nobility and aristocratic families and other classes, and were very eager to show their value.

    ¡°For example, the industrial and commercial class¡¯s support for the war was quite fanatical.  In other words, their support for the country is far better than that of the nobles and aristocratic families in the past.

    In the end, under the strong oppression of the Qixia Kingdom, the Jinyang Kingdom had to agree to this harsh condition without any penny.  Thirty million high-grade spiritual stones.  Moreover, these 30 million high-grade spiritual stones can be paid in no installments and must be paid within half a year.

    In the past few days, the Kingdom of Jinyang has not wanted to fight back and achieve partial victory on the battlefield.  But now some people in the Kingdom of Jinyang are frightened. As long as they hear the roar of artillery, they will get cramps in their calves.

    The country of Qixia attacks with the power of victory and killing, ruthlessly.

    The negotiations lasted for more than three days, and finally the two parties finally signed an agreement in four copies: one each for Qixia Kingdom and Jinyang Kingdom, and one each for Xuanzhen Sect and Xiaoyao Sect.

    The Kingdom of Qixia has returned two dolls, and the prince¡¯s unlucky guest finally no longer has to worry.  He jumped out from behind on the spot and was so excited holding the doll.

    In comparison, Taoist Master Dingshan was much more stable. He slowly took back the villain, but his expression was very ugly.  This time it was a huge embarrassment.

    ??From the beginning of wallowing in the streets, to now being extorted of 30 million high-grade spiritual stones.  Thirty million high-grade spiritual stones, even at the god-transformation stage, he couldn't get them.

    But the most important thing is not this, the most important thing is that there is a trap in it!

    This time, the total compensation amounted to 68.1 million high-grade spiritual stones.  With its own strength, the Kingdom of Jinyang can barely pay it back within ten years, but it is hard to say what the Kingdom of Jinyang will be like after that.  Especially now that the Kingdom of Jinyang is in a tight situation after the war.

    Therefore, this compensation must be paid for by the Xiaoyao Sect.  But how much support is appropriate for Xiaoyaopai?  Hey, here's the thing.  With less help, the Kingdom of Jinyang must have some objections.  If you help me too much, the Xiaoyao faction I'm afraid they won't be happy.

    And there is one more thing that makes Taoist Dingshan look ugly - although the Xiaoyao Sect did not sign this unequal treaty, the Xiaoyao Sect sent people to participate in the negotiations!

    However, at the last moment, when everyone was about to leave the meeting, Zhang Hao suddenly said with a strange smile: "If the Kingdom of Jinyang can express its determination to the Xuanzhen Sect, then on behalf of the Xuanzhen Sect, I promise to pay 30 million in spiritual damages to Jinyang."  The country has nothing to do with it, and the compensation of 10 million high-grade spiritual stones will be reduced!"

    After Zhang Hao finished speaking, he turned around and left coolly.

    Stay, everyone is stunned.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?.
