At this time, Europe.
Saxony.
In order to show his friendship, the King of Saxony sent his Prime Minister to personally invite Li Hongtian to negotiate.
Li Hongtian saw the sincerity of the King of Saxony and readily accepted it. When he came to the palace, the King of Saxony had already hosted a banquet.
Seeing all these preparations, Li Hongtian smiled slightly.
"Prime Minister, your king is already prepared."
The Prime Minister smiled and said: "This can prove the importance we attach to the Dragon Flame Messenger."
"Master Li, you should be able to see the sincerity of our King of Saxony."
The Prime Minister climbed the steps and made a gesture of invitation.
Li Hongtian smiled and nodded, and strode into the palace. He glanced at the Prime Minister and said, "I hope your country can express such sincerity during the peace talks."
The Prime Minister smiled and said nothing, watching Li Hongtian walk in.
The King of Saxony personally welcomed him, and according to their etiquette, the kiss was a very high courtesy.
The King of Saxony embraced Li Hongtian warmly.
"Oh, respected Dragon Flame Messenger, Mr. Li Hongtian, welcome you here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
The King of Saxony invited Li Hongtian to take a seat.
All the people attending this banquet were Saxon dignitaries, and they represented the highest power in Saxony.
"This is our unique wine in Europe. It comes from the royal wine cellar. It has been stored in this cellar for more than 20 years and is aged. Mr. Li, try it and see how it compares to Yinzhou drunkenness?"
Li Hongtian nodded, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"The wine is good. Our Long Yan's Yinzhou Drunkenness was invented by Master Liu, the chief assistant. We don't have enough old wine yet."
The King of Saxony laughed.
Li Hongtian stared at the King of Saxony and said, "However, compared to our Yinzhou Zui, this wine is a little less potent."
The Saxon King's laughter stopped abruptly.
He deliberately brought out the best wine in their country in order to dampen Long Yan's spirit and allow them to gain an advantage in the subsequent negotiations.
"Oh, so the wine of these twenty years is not as good as your Long Yan's Yinzhou drunkenness?"
Li Hongtian smiled slightly: "Everyone has his or her own merits. It just so happened that during this trip, I also brought a bottle of Yinzhou wine, so your majesty can have a taste."
"This bottle of wine has only been stored for three years."
Li Hongtian clapped his hands, and his waiter immediately offered a bottle of Longyan's Yinzhou Drunk and handed it to the Saxon maid.
The Saxon maid held the bottle of wine and presented it to him.
Looking at the bottle of wine, he didn't think that this bottle of Yinzhou Zui, which had been cellared for only three years, could taste better than wine that was twenty years old.
After the King of Saxony opened it and smelled it, his expression changed drastically, and the rich aroma of wine hit his nostrils.
He was a little confused. Is this wine really just three years old?
He quickly poured a glass of wine and took a sip. The strong wine entered his throat, and a sharp and spicy sensation rushed straight to his brain, which made the King of Saxony stunned.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this.
They had also drunk Yinzhou Zui, but they should not let His Majesty the King show such a look.
Seeing the King of Saxony showing such an expression, Li Hongtian smiled and said: "Your Majesty, if you take another sip of wine now, you will have a completely different feeling."
The King of Saxony glanced at Li Hongtian.
I took another sip of wine, but I didn't feel the aroma of the wine at all.
this……
The aroma of Yinzhou Zui completely covered up the aroma of wine.
After receiving such a result, the Saxon king was stunned and speechless.
"Your Majesty, how does our Long Yan's Yinzhou drunk taste?" Li Hongtian asked with a smile.
The King of Saxony stumbled and replied: "The taste...the taste is naturally good."
Hearing this answer, Li Hongtian nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "In Longyan, we love wine like people. This Yinzhou Zui is the wine that most people in Longyan like to drink."
"Your Majesty, would your wine also be compared to that of the Saxons?"
As soon as this was said, the banquet fell into silence.
Comparing wine to people, Saxony still loses.
The King of Saxony sneered and said: "We in Saxony don't have such a custom. I think Mr. Li's temples are turning white. He must be sixty or seventy years old."
"At your age, when we in Saxony are already enjoying family happiness, you shouldn't be working hard for the country."
"Why don't you send young people from Long Yan to do this?"
Li Hongtian laughed twice awkwardly and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm old, but a visit to Saxony is enough. What's more, our Long Yan's visit to foreign countries depends on our talent."
"It just so happens that my talent is among the lowest in Long Yan, and there is no one more suitable than me to visit Saxony."
When the King of Saxony heard this, he smiled.
He had long known through investigation that Lord Li Hongtian held a high position in Longyan. If it was true as he said, then they would have no talented people in Saxony.
Originally, the King of Saxony wanted to ridicule Li Hongtian by taking advantage of the fact that he was old.
Unexpectedly, he was ridiculed directly by the other party.
After the banquet, the negotiations officially began.
I originally thought that I could weaken Long Yan's energy at the banquet so that I could gain more favorable conditions at the negotiation table.
As a result, it now seems that all their tricks were resolved by Li Hongtian one by one, and they did not get any improvement at all.
Instead, Long Yan created a huge negotiating advantage.
"King of Saxony, how do you think about the conditions proposed by our Long Yan?"
The King of Saxony spread his hands and said: "With all due respect, Mr. Li, we can agree to the conditions proposed by Long Yan, but we cannot hand over the power of the army."
"I have to consider the security of Saxony. Military power is the cornerstone of maintaining all this, and we cannot hand it over."
Li Hongtian smiled lightly: "How many troops do you have in Saxony now?"
"Can these people maintain the situation in the country?"
Indeed, most of the current Saxon troops had been lost in the battle with Longyan Army in Dresden.
There are not many troops left at all, and even if they want to maintain military power, they do not have enough funds.
Li Hongtian thought for a moment and then said: "That's good. We, Long Yan, can pay to help Saxony establish a guard team, but we cannot have an army."
"With the escort, your domestic stability in Saxony can be maintained. As for crises from other countries, you can rest assured."
"After Saxony signed an agreement with Long Yan, they are the only ones who dare to attack you, Saxony, which means they are attacking all the countries in this agreement."
"Including Long Yan, you should know what this means."
An agreement was placed before the King of Saxony, who looked at it with the pen in his hand.
"Well, Saxony will decide whether to sign or not. Of course, Saxony will have to bear the consequences."
