Goryeo, Mangsu, the base camp of the expeditionary army.
“??,????,???????????????????????,?????????????????? ???????????????,?????????,???????????????????????? ,?????????????????????,??????,????????????????????? ???????????????????????????,?????????????????????? ????????????(Well, after all, he is my most capable staff member. At critical moments, I have to rely on my husband to help. Mr. Nanhu, if we can reach an agreement with the Japanese pirates this time, I will remember you for your great contribution. In the future, I will definitely report your merits to the court and recommend you to become an official as a reward for your righteous deeds today!" Seeing that his confidant Li Chengxuan took the initiative to ask for help, Cui Mingji and Cui Dabanshu finally let the poor emperor go. Luo Dayong, the general manager of the camp, began to give the former a big cake, and Li Chengxuan also cooperated and humbly surrendered. For a time, except for Luo Dayong who showed an awkward smile next to him, the guests and hosts were chatting happily, and the atmosphere became very harmonious for a time! In those cloudy words, the two parties quickly completed the exchange of interests! Afterwards, Staff Li, who received the order for peace talks, came to Chiyang's temporary headquarters again, escorted by five fast horses.
“??????,????????????????????????.??????????????????? ??????????????????????????????(Chiefs, I am Cui Panshu's staff, and I am here on this order. In order to negotiate with you!)" The flags and flags are fluttering, and the spears are like a forest! Nanhu Mr. Li Chengxuan slowly walked into the temporary headquarters surrounded by red sun curtains, and then without changing his expression, he introduced himself to the leader of the "Japanese pirates" who had committed evil deeds, and bowed his hands in greeting. So self-absorbed, he sat next to the subordinate of the latter's big boss and started pouring himself a drink!
“?????????,???????????????,?????????????????????? ??????? (Sir, have you agreed to all the conditions we proposed?)" Watching the Confucian scholar named Li gnawing pork in one hand and pouring himself a glass of wine from a wine bottle in the other. Lu Dongsheng, who was in charge of translation and negotiation work, couldn't help but scratch his head. He thought to himself that this guy was really big-hearted. He dared to eat and drink under the eyes of the enemy. He didn't know if he was really fearless. Still pretentious! So, with the idea of testing, the latter asked for permission from his superior, opened his mouth, and started to get to the point! He wanted to ask this bold Confucian scholar whether the other party's top leader had agreed to the conditions proposed by his own boss.
“????,????????????????????????????????????,????????? ??????????????????????????????????????????,?????????? ??????????????????????????????,??????????????????? ??????????????? (Haha, is this your way of hospitality? You have to let me eat and drink before we negotiate. Is it because you are reluctant to part with this? Do you want me, the enemy's negotiator, to enjoy the delicious barbecue and the mellow wine?" Facing the enemy's translator's question, Li Chengxuan put down the roasted boar leg and the mellow wine, stood up and straightened his body He was wearing a robe and asked an irrelevant question in a serious manner.
“????,???????????????,???????????????????????????.?? ???????????????,?????????????????????.???????????? ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????(Haha, we are the one who is rude, your envoy can enjoy it to your heart's content, when will you eat it? When you're full, let's continue talking. If it's not enough, we can add some barbecue and wine for you!" After hearing Li Chengxuan's question, Fan Hu, who was sitting in the chair, winked at Lu Dongsheng calmly. Tell him not to be impatient! Because it is obvious that the Korean envoy who came back this time is not as easy to fool as the previous one. From the moment he entered the tent, he was neither humble nor overbearing, but now he is pouring and drinking by himself. Everything this guy does is to undermine his own vigilance and He is defensive, and if his side is eager to get entangled in negotiation issues, he will fall into the trap he carefully created. After thinking this, Fan Huzi just pretended to mutter a few words, and then the gold medal translator Lu Dongsheng came forward and continued to fight with this guy, haha!
"Sir, let's talk in Chinese Mandarin! I am Li Chengxuan, whose name is Nanhu, and I am a native of Hedong, Gyeongsang Province. I am currently serving as an official in Cao Cao's court, Cui Gongba Mingji's staff, and I am proficient in the languages of China, Goryeo, and Japan. , I am here to negotiate with you on the order of Cui Gong. If you have any matters, you may wish to talk to me openly and honestly!" Seeing that the other party had obviously seen through his little trick, Li Chengxuan simply opened the skylight and spoke frankly. Not only did this guy reveal Chiyang's true identity without any trace, he also pointed out that he was good at three languages, allowing the former to quickly end his ridiculous and lame performance. And then, this guy's frankness, or lack of taboo, naturally aroused the curiosity and attention of everyone in Chiyang. Even the big leader Kang Lin heard the sound and came behind the curtain and started using He carefully observed this seemingly inconspicuous Goryeo negotiator.
"Well, Mr. Nanhu is indeed one of the rare sensible people in Goryeo. We, the outsiders, admire him! In fact, we came to Goryeo this time not to make enemies with your country. As for the previous military encounter, it was also a Misunderstanding. After all, no matter how small Goryeo is, it is still a big country with three thousand miles of beautiful rivers and mountains, and we are just some poor people who have no home and are wandering around! All we think about is that we have food in our belly and food on our body. There is nothing more than clothing, a house for the dweller, and fields for the tiller..."
"So, you have set your sights on our country, Goryeo! Capture our territory, massacre our troops, and enslave our people, just because you want to have food in your belly, clothes on your body, a house for everyone to live in, and a house for the farmers. Land? It’s ridiculous, it’s so ridiculous!” Hearing that the reason why the invaders invaded our country was actually for the residents to have houses and the cultivators to have land, even though Li Chengxuan’s city was quite deep, he couldn’t help but be angered by the former’s shamelessness. Laughing, you guys who were defeated in the war in your own country and can no longer survive in your own country want to build your own new home on the territory of another country and claim that every home has a house and every farmer has land. It is really the logic of banditry. , the banditry is very despicable! However, after all, the reason why he went into the tiger's den this time was to negotiate peace, so he could not hold on to this all the time, so the guy quickly adjusted, calmed down, and turned his attention to the negotiation again.
"Okay, let's not dwell too much on this issue. Let's talk about cooperation next! The judge has read the conditions you asked Mr. Luo Qian to bring back! There are grains and money on them. Compensation, and the right to free trade, will also give you an island. To be honest, it is a bit harsh and has no practical significance! Therefore, I have obeyed the orders of Lord Judgment and brought 120,000 people with me. Sincerely, I will come back to negotiate with you! So next, we don’t want to ask for high prices. We have to be pragmatic in order to reach a settlement as soon as possible and then each gets what he needs. What we mean is that compensation can be provided, but it should not exceed food. One thousand stones and five hundred taels of silver; I can also give you that small island isolated overseas, but it still belongs to my Kingdom of Korea in name. You are just renting it for five years; as for free trade rights, I'm sorry, because our country Following the example of the Ming Dynasty, we implemented a policy of isolation from the country, so it really cannot work. Please forgive me!" Li Chengxuan spoke quickly and urgently. It was obvious that this guy was very accomplished in the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty, and what he said The content quickly attracted the attention of everyone in Chiyang. Lu Dongsheng, the gold medal translator, received his instructions and began to argue with his arguments with a cold face!
"Your envoy, you have one thousand dan of grain and five hundred taels of silver. Are you sending it to a beggar? You know, in order to redeem Jinjing Mountain City, Mr. Jin, who was left behind in Jianghua, did not even blink an eyelid and took out two thousand dan. Food, five hundred taels of silver, why did you become so stingy when it came to you? Also, let's rent it. You are more generous. Five years is nothing. If you don't want to negotiate with us, just say so. , why are you showing off here and making people unable to get up or down? It's really boring! As for the right to free trade, we are all merchants selling goods everywhere. If you don't let us do business well, then we will have to take up arms and fight for ourselves. Go fight for this right..."
"The matter of compensation can still be discussed. If you are dissatisfied, we can increase it to 1,200 dan of grain and 600 taels of silver! Everyone, we are poor people in Goryeo. It is really difficult to come up with so much money and grain at once. I hope you can keep the water flowing smoothly and don't do that thing of killing the goose to lay eggs! In addition, we can extend the lease period of the island to eight years. As long as you are willing to pay a little bit of money, I can make a promise to you on behalf of Lord Judgment, The island can be leased to you in the future; as for the most critical free trade rights, I don’t think it can’t be operated. It’s just that managing all parties requires a lot of money. The judge hopes that you can pay part of the money..."
Looking at the dissatisfied look on the face of his negotiating counterpart, Li Chengxuan thought for a long time before pretending to be in trouble and agreed to increase the compensation. However, this not only failed to satisfy the former, but on the contrary, Lu Dongsheng, the translator, felt that he had been tricked. He chose to silently draw out the long knife from his waist! Are you kidding me? I look like a poor person who lacks one or two hundred stones of food and dozens or hundreds of taels of silver. After waiting for such a long time, I actually got such an answer. It is simply something that my aunt can bear, but even my uncle cannot bear. !
