In addition, it cannot be said that all your requests are unreasonable. For example, I can agree to the opening of trade ports.
But we can only open Yizhou. Yizhou is also very rich in products. There are many things you need, such as sugar, rubber...
But credit is not accepted.
Because there is an old saying in China that "brothers settle accounts", not to mention that we are not brothers? I hope you, Lord Peter, can understand this.
Speaking of cession, I have to ask Lord Pitt, did you just occupy the land of Odalia?
With all due respect, that land is too big. With only a small population in England, it is impossible to completely occupy it. Besides, do you know how to develop the economic value of that land and live in peace with the local indigenous people?
I don’t think you barbarians understand. Why don’t we just leave it to us civilized people to run it? Of course, we will not be greedy, as long as more than half is enough.
I heard that the pasture there is particularly lush? I want to put horses on it... and do some breeding and build a few canneries and stuff.
It's true that what Xiao Chen said was English, but Pitel didn't understand a word of it. If I'm not Mr. Xiao Chen, can you say it again?
If you weren't crazy and there wasn't something wrong with my hearing, I think you were kidding me, right? But I have to admit, this is a very funny joke, so damn funny!
"Master Pitel, what are you talking about? This is a formal negotiation, how can you joke!" Xiao Chen is not joking, okay? I'm here to formally negotiate with you on behalf of the emperor. Who the hell is telling you a joke? People are very serious.
"Haha, that means you are unwilling to accept any conditions we put forward and decided to accept our challenge, right?" Pitel sneered.
"You can't say that, right?" Xiao Chen said, "We Chinese are peace-loving and don't like war, unless someone else takes the initiative to provoke... But despite this, we still hope for a peaceful solution. After all, a fight will be harmful to both of us. All very disadvantageous.”
"I'm very sorry about this." Pitre stood up and said that the negotiations had broken down.
"Master Pitel, do you want to think about it again?" Xiao Chen still wanted to persist for a while.
"It's no longer necessary. I've wasted too much time. You Chinese people are indeed a bunch of stupid barbarians who don't understand current affairs. There will be very serious consequences waiting for you!" Pitel was very angry. So much so that he doesn’t hesitate to speak.
"I'm very sorry for your wording!" Xiao Chen said, "Don't we need to think about such a major matter carefully? I hope Mr. Pitel will also think about it carefully on the way back. There is one sentence You are right, once a war breaks out, the consequences will be very serious!"
"Hahaha, that's so ridiculous, look who is threatening me?" Pitel laughed angrily.
"It's me, my name is Xiao Chen." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "My Western friends gave me a foreign name, called Victor. You can also call me Victor."
Victor means conqueror.
"Fake, Victor!" Pitel's violent temper finally burst out. He was really unqualified as an envoy. How could you use such a solemn diplomatic occasion to use foul language?
So rude.
In fact, he used foul language more than once during the negotiations with Chen Wenqi and Lu Jing. However, Chen Wenqi and Lu Jing did not understand, or they pretended not to understand even though they did understand. It was not easy for them to argue with him, as important ministers of the Celestial Dynasty.
Naturally, the translators at Honglu Temple would not translate it truthfully, and they all selectively ignored the past birds.
But it was okay for Pitel to scold those two people. How dare he scold Xiao Chen?
Although he has a bad temper, Xiao Chen's temper is not very good. Besides, he can understand...
You were rude just now. I have forgiven you generously because you are a guest. Now you are insulting me in front of me. Why do you really think I don't dare to kill you?
"How dare you scold me, Fake?" He immediately changed his face, slammed the table hard, and shouted for someone to come!
Xiao Yu and a group of Jin Yiwei who were waiting outside swarmed in after hearing the sound. What are your orders, sir?
"This guy insulted me in person and slandered our emperor. He is really rude!" Xiao Chen said, "I tied him up and took him outside the city to be chopped!"
yes! Without saying a word, Xiao Yu and others stepped forward and kicked Pitel to the ground, took out the rope and tied him up, stuffed rags in his mouth, covered his head with a hood, and dragged him out like a dead dog.
The dozen or so followers who came with him outside watched helplessly as Lord Pitel was dragged out. They were all shocked and came forward to ask what was going on?
what's the situation? Very bad situation!
Your Lord Piter scolded our boss Xiao Chen. Boss Xiao Chen was very angry, so we planned to kill him...
ah? You can't do this, you have no right to kill him, we have to protest!
"The protest is useless! You guys should pack up your bed for me and get out of here quickly. Don't wait for me to get angry. Kill them all, chop them into pieces and feed them to the dogs. If you call me a barbarian, I will show you how barbaric I am once." Look, go back and tell that King Andrei of yours, let him wash his buttocks clean and wait for us to defeat him!"
Xiao Chen spoke in English, so all the followers understood him, and they were all dumbfounded.
When Pitre's hood was taken off, he was already at the execution ground outside the city. It was a real execution ground.
It was late autumn, and it was also the time for murder and execution.
As the saying goes, "Heaven has four seasons, and the king has four political affairs. Celebrations, rewards, punishments, and punishments correspond to spring, summer, autumn, and winter." That is to say, spring and summer are used for celebrating rewards, while autumn and winter are used for Punitive.
In autumn, when all things wither, the sky and the earth freeze, and the vegetation becomes desolate, it is the time when all life comes to an end. It will not violate the harmony of heaven and earth to end the life of a prisoner at this time.
In addition, in spring and summer, people are busy farming, and in late autumn, when the busy farming season is over and the food is returned to the warehouse, everyone has time to visit this kind of leisure and entertainment project...
Of course, the main purpose is to alert the world and deter crime.
Fengyang Mansion executes dozens or even hundreds of death row prisoners here every year, and every time at this moment, there are crowds of spectators.
Each one was on tiptoe, with their necks stretched out, like many ducks being held up by invisible hands... for fear of not being able to see clearly.
When each prisoner was brought in, there were loud cheers and shouts for him to sing a line to cheer him up.
If you are lucky, you may encounter someone who is not afraid of death and will sing with his neck stretched out, "A shout and a tie outside the tent will make the hero laugh." This will attract countless cheers and applause, and everyone can chat for a long time after dinner.
But most of the time the decapitated people cry out in pain, become limp, and even urinate and feces, which triggers waves of boos.
