Jing Ci was resolute and did not give Qin Feng any room for negotiation. After all, as the princess of Beidi, she needed to consider the impact.

If he goes into the city with Qin Feng, those who know will think that Jing Ci is forced to do so, and those who don't know will think that Jing Ci has already formed an alliance with Qin Feng.

Besides...

Qin Feng, a bastard, first messed up Sangzhou, and then advocated the support of the late emperor Jing Qianying. In public and private matters, in love and reason, Jing Ci should be at odds with Qin Feng.

But……

Ever since he was in Yucheng and witnessed Qin Feng's methods and how Qin Feng used his identity as a "foreign envoy" to intimidate Jing Ci, Jing Ci felt anxious but helpless.

Seeing that the royal capital city was already looming, Jing Ci refused to enter the city with Qin Feng no matter what.

The corners of Qin Feng's mouth raised slightly, and he stared at the furious Jing Ci with interest.

"Your Highness, if you don't want to go to the city with me, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"I'm so sorry. I've already sent someone to inform the soldiers guarding the city."

As soon as these words came out, Jing Ci was so angry that he trembled all over and stared at Qin Feng, wishing he could eat this bastard alive.

"What?! You've sent someone to inform you in advance? Why are you so quick to talk?"

"If my reputation is ruined, I can't spare you!"

Jing Ci, who had been in disguise all the way, was no longer too lazy to pretend anymore, and directly resumed her identity as Princess Beidi, bossing Qin Fengyi around.

Qiya next to her wanted to protect her master several times, but recalling Qin Feng's fierce appearance in Yucheng, Qiya could only swallow the words that came to her lips.

Qin Feng gave Qiya a look that said, "I guess you know how to look."

Then he looked at Jing Ci with a smile: "Damage your reputation? What are you talking about, Your Highness?"

“As long as Your Highness enters the city with me, you will definitely be loved by the people in the city.

Hearing this, Jing Ci couldn't help but snorted: "I believe you are a ghost!"

"Thousands of people in my Dadi, up and down, are eager to eat your flesh and drink your blood. Anyone who associates with you is the mortal enemy of my Dadi. And I, as the princess of Dadi, actually You are the one who walks with me and is stabbed in the back by all the people in the world!"

Jing Ci's mouth was sharp, but she was secretly wailing in her heart.

I was really unlucky for eight lifetimes, to meet Qin Feng halfway.

This guy, who had just finished destroying Liang Guo, came to Beidi to cause trouble. He was really a disaster. Not to mention the individual, even the country would be cheated to death if he got involved.

As everyone knows, her angry look is not very interesting in Qin Feng's eyes.

Qin Feng spread his hands and explained in an understatement: "I came to Di this time for the purpose of paying compensation for the war. As a princess, Your Highness does not care about the body of a rich man. She contacted me specifically to reduce the compensation. How is this? Righteousness?"

"If I were a commoner in Beidi, I would probably kowtow to His Highness on the spot."

"How lucky it is to have Her Royal Highness the Princess in Beidi?"

Facing Qin Feng's eloquent sugar-coated bullets, Jing Ci bit her thin lips and cursed in her heart, how could there be such a shameless person in the world?

She spat on the spot: "Hmph! How can I not know what kind of virtues you have?"

"You are the number one iron rooster in the Liang Kingdom. As long as you are targeted, anyone will have to peel off a layer of their skin."

"At the beginning, Lu Zhuguo and General Chen worked together and never allowed you to reduce or reduce the compensation. How can I do it with just one sentence? Hahaha, I don't believe that I have such great ability."

Qin Feng's eyes showed a cunning light, and his nature as a profiteer was undoubtedly revealed.

"Does Your Highness know the word kickback?"

Jing Ci frowned slightly: "What's a kickback? You guys always talk nonsense that no one can understand."

Qin Feng spread his hands and explained seriously: "War reparations are a major matter for the country. How can it be decided by me alone? Even if the war reparations are reduced, it must be decided jointly by the courtiers of Liang Dynasty."

"However, if His Highness is sincere, I can reduce or reduce the compensation in disguise."

Seeing that Qin Feng didn't look like he was playing tricks, Jing Ci couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "Go on!"

Qin Feng did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "The war compensation remains unchanged, but privately, I can give your country one million taels of silver."

"In this case, wouldn't it be equivalent to a disguised reduction in compensation of one million taels of silver? This is the kickback I am talking about."

"But... I have a small condition."

Jing Ci snorted softly, with contempt on his face: "I knew you weren't so kind!"

Qin Feng shrugged: "After all, I am a businessman, and businessmen pursue profits as a matter of course."

Jing Ci's eyes became even more disdainful: "Businessman? Aren't you Marquis Tianlu of the Liang Kingdom? When did you become a businessman? How much status do you have, or do you say that you talk to people when you see them, and you tell lies when you see ghosts? Whoever you meet, you will With what identity? It’s so treacherous!”

Among Qin Feng's many identities, Jing Ci alone knew many of them.

Including but not limited to, the Marquis of Liang Kingdom, the Lord of the Northern Territory, the Lord of Beixi County, the military commander, craftsmen, literati...

Now that Qin Feng has become a businessman again, does he want to have a foot in all the 360 ​​industries in the world?

This ambition is too big.

Qin Feng had no intention of quarreling with Jing Ci. He just stated his plans. As for whether he agreed or not, it was Jing Ci's business.

"Trade was also one of the conditions for the original negotiation."

"But I still know myself. With my reputation, I'm afraid it would be wishful thinking to rent a shop in the capital of Beidi."

"The people of the capital will not sell it to me even if they burn the shop."

"If Your Highness, Princess, can help me find a shop and help me complete the land deed and other procedures, I will give you one million taels of silver in full."

One million taels of silver was a large amount that Qin Feng could not ignore.

But in order to open up the huge market in Beidi, the money is well spent.

Otherwise, in the future, when the two countries start trade, all Daliang merchants will be able to come to Beidi to do business, but the Qin family will be excluded. That would be too frustrating.

Besides...

Opening a winery is only the first step for Qin Feng to control Beidi's economy.

As long as you can become a wealthy businessman in Beidi and gradually control the lifeblood of all walks of life, the word "money" will become the most irrelevant thing.

If Beidi dares to be dishonest, Qin Feng doesn't even need to abolish a single soldier. He can make Beidi obey as long as he seizes the economic lifeline.

This huge ambition can even be said to be a conspiracy. Even people close to him such as Jing Qianying and Ning Hu knew nothing about it.

When the mountain flowers are in full bloom, I will lie on the pile of money and laugh!

Jing Ci is not stupid. She knows that Qin Feng is very clever and there must be some conspiracy involved. However, just one shop can be exchanged for one million taels of silver. This is still a very good deal.
