"Don't worry, I'm not interested in those nonsense."
Jiang Chen's words made Jiang Zhi smile, and he was right to say so.
It's really rubbish.
However, it is a mess that could cost one's life at any time.
"Master Jiang is really an interesting young man. If we weren't in different countries, we might be good friends."
"No, the old man and I don't make friends, we only do business."
"Business?"
Jiang Zhi looked at Jiang Chen doubtfully.
He didn't understand the meaning of Jiang Chen's words.
He was just an envoy from another country, and Jiang Chen was just a small medical doctor.
Even if he has some status with the little emperor, the cooperation between them is undoubtedly a fantasy.
What's more, he doesn't understand business at all.
"I heard that there is a very strange fuel in Northern Xia called black wood?"
"Dark wood? Yes, there is. I wonder what Young Master Jiang is asking about."
"It's just business between us."
Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously.
The time has come.
He had always been very interested in the black wood of Northern Xia.
Unfortunately, I haven't found a chance to go to such a bitter and cold place like Yazhou.
It happened that Jiang Zhi asked him for something, so he came to his door.
Don't want it for nothing.
As the saying goes, if there are dates but there are no dates, let’s talk about it with a pole.
What if the old man Jiang Zhi is more useful than he thought.
"I'm afraid I can't make the decision in this matter." Jiang Zhi hesitated, "And Mr. Jiang is really not a lobbyist sent by the little emperor?"
"Why do Lord Jiang think so?"
Jiang Chen looked at him puzzled.
Isn’t it nice to talk just now? I just changed my face no matter how hard I said it.
Is it possible that this black wood has any special significance to Bei Xia?
"Since Mr. Jiang knows the role of black wood, we are still hostile countries. If I do business with you, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving away a great honor guard of our country?"
Obviously, Jiang Zhi is also very aware of the gap between Bei Xia and Jing Guo.
Black wood has a high calorific value, is easy to store, and is easy to transport.
Extremely useful when fighting in the northern grasslands.
It can be said to be a great weapon of Northern Xia, but once it falls into the hands of Jing Guo.
They lose this advantage.
"I understand what Mr. Jiang means, but business is all about mutual benefit. You didn't hear the bargaining chip I mentioned, so why are you so anxious to refuse?" Jiang Chen smiled slightly, obviously thinking that Jiang Zhi would refuse.
He had previously investigated the difficulties faced by Bei Xia.
Sandwiched between Yuezhi and Jingguo, there are nomadic tribes on the right, and the federation is harassing them in turns.
It can be said that we are surrounded by enemies on three sides and exhausted.
Every winter, resources are extremely scarce.
Especially this year, as soon as the spring seeds were sown, they encountered floods and most of the farmland was submerged.
What was finally left was hit by drought after summer.
If this continues, it can be said that there will be no harvest for the whole year.
When winter comes, everyone from the royal family to all the people will probably go hungry.
It was precisely in order to improve this unfavorable situation that he thought of getting married to Jing Guo.
Reduce border wars and use excess food and grass domestically.
Therefore, Northern Xia would seek peace from both sides and try its best to avoid conflict with Yuezhi and Jingguo.
Jiang Zhi was very aware of the importance of this matter.
"Still, Mr. Jiang."
"Ah, no, it's Bei Xia. We already have a new partner."
Jiang Chen was silent for a while before continuing to speak.
His words were extremely calm, but they set off huge waves in Jiang Zhi's heart.
He actually knew it!
"I don't understand what Young Master Jiang means."
"Lord Jiang, you don't need to understand, I just give Lord Jiang one more choice." Jiang Chen stood up and stretched, "As for what choice Lord Jiang makes, I can't interfere, but I still hope that Lord Jiang will think clearly and give us a chance. "
Jiang Chen didn't know what was in the letter that Zhang Ziang found.
Bai Buhui never revealed anything.
But he seemed to understand something in his heart.
It is nothing more than what Bei Xia is most in short supply at the moment.
"I am an empty official and cannot be the master." Jiang Zhi smiled and waved his hand.
Obviously still can't trust Jiang Chen.
Regarding this, Jiang Chen also knew that he had never thought that he could successfully persuade someone with just a few words.
Otherwise, with Chu Jiang'er's sharp tongue, he would not have been able to open up the black timber business with Bei Xia.
"Before returning to the Northern Xia court, Mr. Jiang always has a chance. I can wait."
Jiang Chen said very relaxedly.
The meaning of the words is very clear.
Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, who knows who is!
After leaving Honglu Temple, Jiang Chen returned to Zhong Er Hall.
Lying in bed.
There was silence all around, as if time had frozen at this moment, stagnant, and not a trace of noise could be heard. Only the breeze passing through the treetops stirred up the sound of sleeping birds flapping their wings.
Jiang Chen played with the secondary card Chu Jianger gave him in his hand, with a helpless smile on his face.
This woman is really scary.
By supporting him in name only, you can even withdraw money from any bank in the Bandung Chamber of Commerce.
But in fact, it was like putting a layer of shackles on him invisibly.
Once he appears in the bank of the Bandung Chamber of Commerce, Chu Jiang'er will receive the news immediately.
The purpose of the money will also be quickly figured out.
In this way, he could be said to be completely exposed to Chu Jiang'er without any secrets.
What a good idea!
"This is how it feels to have money but not be able to spend it. It's really funny." Jiang Chen said to himself helplessly.
Now I finally feel what those corrupt officials feel.
Feeling like sitting on pins and needles.
But if you want to do business with Bei Xia and Jiang Zhi, without money and the materials they need, it will definitely not succeed.
It's really a headache.
Suddenly, he thought of Jiang Qin.
Although this guy looks unreliable, he does things quite neatly, especially when it comes to making money, his eyes shine.
Much easier to deal with than Chu Jiang'er.
The night is as dark as water.
Going to the capital, under the calm, there is an undercurrent.
Everyone has his own mind, everyone has his own ideas, everyone has beliefs to pursue, and missions to fulfill.
When these types of collisions occur, there will inevitably be another bloody storm.
"Stand there."
"Holy shit, you dare to run."
Zhang Ziang waved his hand, and a group of Dali Temple detectives swarmed up and surrounded the people in front of him.
"Run, you run another one and I'll see."
"King Dog."
"Damn, you dare to curse." Zhang Ziang raised his eyebrows, "Tie him up and gag him."
At this moment, the man's eyes flashed fiercely and he rushed towards Zhang Ziang.
The dagger in his sleeve shone coldly like a poisonous snake.
"Come again, you are already the third one."
With a kick, the dagger fell to the ground with a crisp sound. The man also fell to the side, vomiting blood, and struggled to get up.
"It's boring."
Zhang Ziang patted his robe, called to the Dali Temple police officers, tied up the man, and prepared to go home.
The moment he turned around.
A sleeve arrow flew almost close to his face and accurately inserted into the chest of the man just now.
Without the slightest reaction, he died.
Then there were several more sleeve arrows, targeting the guys who were arrested.
Zhang Ziang's eyes tightened, and he threw out the long knife in his hand, heading straight for the person in the darkness.
At the same time, he threw out the cloak behind him, removing the power of the sleeve arrows.
"Who is that? He's sneaky."
