Chapter 10 Friendly Foreign Envoys
In front of the landscape screen, four people gathered around an Eight Immortals table, with long-backed wooden chairs behind them. Qun Yu Pavilion not only uses the best materials, but also pays attention to the setting of the ornaments. For example, this wooden table and chair are made of compact and solid wood.
, occasionally there is a faint fragrance lingering.
There are also tea cups placed on the table, which are all made of crystal-clear and round celadon, with flowing cloud-like textures that are completely natural. It is expected that they are a God-given treasure that was accidentally obtained after millions of firings in the kiln.
It seems that only a person like Liyue Qixing can obtain such porcelain and be willing to display it for guests to use.
"Many of the furnishings in these jade pavilions are based on the opinions of the knowledgeable Mr. Zhongli. It is better to meet him than to be famous. He is the most particular person I have ever seen."
A smile appeared on her face, and she seemed to be quite impressed by that strange man.
"Let's get down to business."
Keqing is different from Ningguang. She seems too lazy to continue wrangling on these unimportant matters. Perhaps the gold and jade-inlaid furnishings of Qunyu Pavilion are just a little luxurious in her eyes.
Keqing is not the kind of person who focuses on enjoyment. Her room must be very simple, with only the necessary simple furniture.
If fancy decorations could improve work efficiency, she might consider it, but it clearly doesn't.
"Why did you suddenly come to Liyue?"
There was no expression on her face, and Ningguang, who had always been kind, did not stop Ke Qing from interrogating her, but it was obvious that simply speaking, friendly exchanges and travel would not satisfy the two of them.
"Liyue is where my mother clan is. I came here because I wanted to visit. In addition, I also carry the general's imperial order."
"What?" Keqing asked immediately.
"The Dao Wife has been locked away for too long, and the shogunate is also facing a big change. To sum up, we need fresh blood to be injected. Liyue is a vast land with abundant resources, and thousands of ships are coming, so we want to establish fixed trade channels and terms with your country to eliminate trade.
A little bit of a barrier.”
The information revealed from Shangshang Zhaoyue's mouth really revealed huge interests, even the Seven Stars of Liyue would be moved, national-level interests.
"If you do this, you will reduce the interests of your own merchants, and if trade barriers are eliminated, aren't you afraid that a trade route will be completely monopolized?"
Ningguang was not happy. She felt that the special envoy was too naive and did not understand the pros and cons of introducing foreign businessmen. She chose to point it out in order to prevent the other party from regretting it later and making both parties unhappy.
"Of course I know this, but you two may not know that there are not many merchants left in Daozuma who are willing to sell mobile goods. Even if the ban is lifted now, this aspect is still taboo for local merchants. Daozuma people
There is a need for change and an example, and giving up the majority of the cake is a price that must be paid. But I have also considered what Miss Ningguang said, so this openness is not unlimited. I am willing to work out the time for this contract to take effect with you two.
"
Ningguang's frown relaxed. The wealthy Ningguang immediately expressed her willingness to spend money to open up this maritime trade route. She was also a businessman, so she naturally smelled the smell of money in this contract.
However, she is also very cautious, and she is very cautious in many details. However, she knows how to relax and does not press too hard. Generally speaking, she still relies on her operational methods to speak for herself.
Shangshang Zhaoyue is not too demanding about how much benefit he can get for local traders. Foreign traders have an inherent advantage in seaborne imports. As long as they have money and access, the only obstacle is tariffs and other trade barriers.
Now that Daozu locals are willing to remove trade barriers, the benefits contained therein are naturally indescribable. In contrast, Liyue must also remove some trade barriers, and Daozu merchants must also be given preferential treatment if they are willing to do business in Liyue.
"Then, happy to cooperate, Miss Ningguang."
Ningguang stretched out his hand and shook hands with the smiling Shangshan Zhaoyue as a sign of friendship.
After Kamisato Ayaka and Shangshang Aoyue left, she stopped smiling and faced Keqing beside her.
"How does it feel?"
"I can't see through it, my eyes are scary."
Keqing pinched her chin. She was not interested in the shipping business, because the Ke family had been operating real estate for generations. If Shangshan Zhaoyue planned to rent or sell Inazuma's land, she might still be interested in doing some infrastructure construction.
Because her focus was not on business, she mostly paid attention to the appearance of these two strangers from a foreign country, causing her mind to be filled with those majestic golden eyes.
Hot as flowing fire, blazing like the sun, grand and generous.
"The eyes are indeed like those of immortals and strangers, which reminds me of the ceremony to invite immortals..." She did not continue, but Ke Qing understood that the ceremony to invite immortals, what else could it be to invite immortals?
The Emperor Yanwang also has the same kind of bright pupils embedded with gold and jade.
The majestic and magnanimous golden fluorescence, and the pupils of this rice wife's envoy are even more aggressive. Just looking at each other will make your heart tremble. After looking at it for a long time, your head will unconsciously lower, and you will never dare to look at each other easily.
The two people below have already landed on Yujing Terrace.
"Your eyes," Kamisato Ayaka looked at him helplessly. Even Kamisato Ayaka, the closest person to her, could not look directly into those captivating golden eyes for long.
"For the time being, I have no control over the new changes that have occurred."
The corners of his mouth also hinted at helplessness. For these "eternal golden eyes", they not only can frighten outsiders, but are also useful to one's own people.
The ability to kill indiscriminately is currently not affected at all, except for Zhongli, the guest of the Palace of Rebirth, the Thunderbolt General who is high in the Heavenly Guard, and the Thunder Movie who is dedicated to the Pure Land.
"Resolve it as soon as possible, I can't even look at you properly."
She tugged on the sleeves of Zhaoyue's shirt, and her tone was offensive, but not reproachful. It was a rare girlish playfulness.
"Got the order!"
He responded loudly on purpose, which immediately attracted the attention of many people who came to pay homage to the incense burner or come to the Tsukikai Pavilion to deal with affairs. He did not mention it for the time being. The thin-skinned Kamisato Ayaka increased his strength. He gave up resistance and the girl quickly dragged him away.
to the scene.
On the long street of Feiyunpo, there are vermilion railings and steps all along the street. The rows of houses all have overlapping eaves. Occasionally, there are flaming red lanterns with golden tassels hanging on the porch of a house.
There are also lively street vendors and antique decoration shops on the street. Paper umbrellas with bright red flowers are erected diagonally. Even if it is not a holiday, the traffic of cars and people is still lively and prosperous.
"..." Ayaka Kamisato was faced with a bustle that she had never seen in Inazuma, and she immediately put aside her thoughts of blaming him for yelling.
"At noon, I will take you to try the two most famous cuisines in Liyue, Li Cai and Yue Cai. You can eat the most classic Li Cai and Yue Cai at Liuliting and Xinyue Xuan respectively. If it weren't for Ning
Miss Guang, as new arrivals from far away countries like us, it is basically impossible to book a banquet in the near future."
"Now enjoy the exotic scenery, dear young lady."
