Standing in the center of the hall, Kangtai felt that the golden light was too dazzling. All he could see in the corner of his eyes was gold. It was hard to imagine that when these people were discussing things, were they all doing so with their eyes closed?
Even if it is to highlight the majesty of the king, is this too outrageous?
But after thinking about it carefully, the style of the entire island is like this. Kangtai still feels that this has nothing to do with the majesty of the king. It is simply that the people of Liuli Island are too obsessed with Liuli Mine, so there is no place on the entire island. No need to go to Liuli Mine.
Especially for a building as important as the palace hall, is it okay to cast the entire body with glazed ore?
What's more, for the people on the island, their eyes have probably evolved a long time ago. This golden light that is uncomfortable for them is probably just drizzle for the people on Liuli Island, and they have long been used to it.
The corner of Kangtai's mouth twitched slightly. He had rich experience in maritime diplomacy in his previous life, but this was the first time he had conducted diplomacy "with his eyes closed" like this.
I have to say that this is a challenge and it also inspires Kangtai's fighting spirit.
This is his first battle in Maplewood Town, and he must finish it beautifully!
Kangtai bowed his hands upward and said, "Fenglin's diplomatic envoy Kangtai has met the Lord of Liuli Kingdom."
"Maple Forest? Where is that place?"
"I don't know, but it should be very powerful, not weaker than our Liuli Island. If the fleet at the port really fights us, only the Liuli fleet can fight against it, right?"
"But this maple forest is really unknown. Did it come from a very far away place? At least I haven't heard of this place within hundreds of thousands of miles."
"I don't know, well, I don't know if this maple forest is an enemy or a friend, whether it is good or bad for us."
"Hey, what are you afraid of? We in the Liuli Kingdom have never been afraid of anyone. Think about when dozens of forces besieged us, wouldn't they just be handed over to us?"
"Haha, it makes sense. No matter what the origin of this maple forest is, this sea area is not a place where they can be arrogant."
There was a lot of discussion in the main hall. There was only a vague shadow on the golden throne, which seemed to frown. Then the father-in-law on the side shouted in a high voice: "Quiet! There is no noise in the main hall!"
The sound suddenly stopped, but Kangtai still felt that different eyes were gathering on him at this moment.
These eyes were not unfamiliar to Kangtai. When he was on a mission in his previous life, he had already developed an unyielding mentality.
He just followed his own rhythm and reported loudly: "I am the envoy of Fenglin, and I came to the Liuli Kingdom just to establish eternal good relations with the Liuli Kingdom."
"It turns out they are here to form an alliance."
"Haha, it seems that our Liuli Kingdom is really famous and has attracted such a powerful force to form an alliance."
"It's hard to say. There are many cases where alliances are used as a cover."
"That's right, you still have to be more vigilant."
Everyone murmured a few words, and at the same time, more and more eyes focused on Kangtai.
At this time, the leader of the Liuli Kingdom finally spoke: "An alliance? If your envoy only relies on a few words, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince others. Since it is an eternal good agreement, can there be a certificate of credence to prove it?"
Kangtai's eyes narrowed slightly. The leader of the Liuli Kingdom was really not a good person. He found a key point immediately.
For an unknown force that wants to form an alliance with itself, a key point in the evaluation is naturally the credentials submitted.
There is a lot of information that can be revealed in the credentials.
If it is just a few words or a lot of pages, it can only mean that this unknown force has no sincerity in forming an alliance, or even the alliance is just a cover. The real purpose is probably to explore the reality of the Liuli Kingdom so that it can prepare for war.
Because no matter whether it is a few words or a long article, the fundamental purpose is to conceal one's own strength or confuse the public, and there is no intention to really let the Liuli Kingdom know about this unknown ally.
On the other hand, if the credentials are well detailed, not only describing one's basic situation, but also showing respect for the Liuli Kingdom and willingness to make alliances, it means that one really intends to form an alliance, at least on the surface.
Therefore, it was undoubtedly a very correct choice for the Lord Liuli to ask Kangtai for his credentials as soon as possible.
Since the Lord of the Liuli Kingdom is not a fool, Kangtai will certainly not pretend to be a fool or treat the Lord of the Liuli Kingdom as a fool.
His failure to submit the credentials of Maplewood Town immediately was of course a test. If no one mentioned the credentials during the entire alliance, Kangtai would be happy to pretend to be stupid and let the Liuli Kingdom complete the "alliance" with Maplewood Town in a daze. ".
It's just that this "alliance" can be regarded as a unilateral piece of waste paper. Maplewood Town can tear it up if it wants, but Liuli Kingdom has nothing to do about it.
This kind of situation is not uncommon in many diplomacy, even if it is a formal and complete alliance, sometimes it is not necessary to be too quick to tear it apart.
Therefore, this alliance mainly depends on the substantial sincerity shown by both parties. To put it simply, we are all adults. We only talk about interests, not feelings. If you want to talk about feelings, you will treat me like an idiot.
Obviously, Liuli Kingdom is not an idiot who talks about relationships. At least judging from the first step shown by the leader of Liuli Kingdom, he is a smart man.
Kangtai immediately took out the scroll with maple leaves like dragon scales, lowered his head and handed it to him: "This is the credential, please read it."
The Lord of the Liuli Kingdom nodded slightly, and the father-in-law on the side immediately came down and took the certificate from Fenglin and presented it to the Lord of the Liuli Kingdom.
As for where this credential came from, of course it was made by Li Feng in a hurry, and even the ink was just dry.
Before going to sea, Li Feng thought of taking Kangtai with him. Of course, he would not forget about the possible mission. Dozens of credentials and so on had been prepared. All that was needed was to add corresponding forces based on the actual situation.
In short, the so-called credential is actually an assembly line product, even worse than the assembly line. At least the assembly line is still one line. All Li Feng has to do is add a power name.
Of course, the leader of Liuli Kingdom must not know how cheap the Fenglin credential in his hand looks decent.
When I opened the letter of credence and looked at it, I gradually frowned. It was not that the letter of credence was bad, but that it was indeed a normal letter of credence. Although it was very sincere, it was still quite atmospheric.
The reason why the leader of the Liuli Kingdom frowned was that this so-called Maple Forest was actually not a maritime force, but a land force, which just happened to be near the sea.
This made the leader of the Liuli Kingdom feel very complicated for a moment. For a land force to be able to build such a powerful fleet in this remote area was a bit outrageous.
If everything written in the credential hadn't stood up to careful scrutiny, the leader of the Liuli Kingdom would have felt that this so-called Fenglin was just here to provoke, and that the credential was actually a declaration of war.
It was precisely because it could withstand scrutiny that it made the leader of the Liuli Kingdom feel even more depressed. If the powerful coastal forces in the region could build such a fleet, he wouldn't be as sad as anything.
The key is that the area where Fenglin Town is located is even worse than the area where Liuli Island is located. As a result, with one land and one sea, Fenglin's fleet is no worse than his Liuli Kingdom.
How could this not make the Lord of Liuli feel sour? Indirectly, the eyes of Lord Liuli when he looked at Kangtai were not very friendly.
With a cold snort, the leader of the Liuli Kingdom said: "I already understand your purpose of coming, but the alliance between the two forces is not a trivial matter, and both sides lack understanding. Since the envoy has arrived, let's take a good look at the alliance on Liuli Island for the time being. It’s not too late for us to discuss it later.”
Kangtai knew as soon as he heard this that the leader of the Liuli Kingdom was planning to play a trick.
And that sour smell and unkind tone...
Kangtai understood it after just a moment's thought, and suddenly a surge of pride surged in his heart. The fleet on the seaside crushed the fleet on the ocean, just like amateurs crushing professional players. This is naturally very satisfying.
But Kangtai would never show it at this point, otherwise let alone forming an alliance, it would be fine if he didn't form an enemy. If he slaps someone in the face, everyone will fall out.
As for the Liuli Kingdom Lord's dragging tactics, he just wanted to collect more information about Fenglin.
It is said that Fenglin should have a good look at Liuli Island, but why not let Liuli Kingdom have a good look at Fenglin?
The Maple Forest envoys have arrived. They have never heard of this force before. It is definitely impossible to conduct an on-site investigation at this time, but they can borrow chickens to lay eggs.
As long as the people of Maple Forest stay on the island, apart from what they see with their eyes, if they want to know more, they have to communicate, right?
Since there is communication, information will be revealed. Through the collection of this information, no matter how well you know Fenglin, there is still no problem in knowing a general idea.
Therefore, Kangtai must admit at this time that the leader of the Liuli Kingdom is indeed a smart man. Judging from his previous life experience, his intelligence is above average.
In this way, Kangtai will of course have to use methods to deal with the middle-class people. If the leader of the Liuli Kingdom shows higher wisdom in this process, he will not hesitate to show higher methods.
Kangtai nodded slightly and smiled meaningfully: "It is necessary to see more in Liuli Kingdom. It is also true that the two sides lack understanding, so we Fenglin must also evaluate whether Liuli Kingdom is qualified to form an alliance with Fenglin."
"And I think with our ability in Maple Forest, this understanding will not take long. It will probably be completed in three to five days, a week. After that, we in Maple Forest have other matters to do, so Liuli Kingdom must hurry up. ."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became silent.
It was completely different from the previous courtesy and courtesy. It seemed that in an instant, Kangtai's style changed and became extremely aggressive.
For a moment, everyone in the main hall looked at Kangtai angrily.
"Bold! How dare you talk to the king like this!"
"Don't think that because you are an envoy, we don't dare to kill you. There is no such thing as not killing an envoy!"
"Humph, are you humiliating me? Fenglin is so majestic!"
"My lord, these people are rude, please expel them from the island!"
"Fenglin, what a good Fenglin, he said he came to form an alliance, but in fact he came to start a war!"
Everyone in the main hall was filled with indignation, but Kangtai remained unmoved as if a breeze was blowing on his face.
