Chapter 406 Tariffs

"Peace talks? You should go to the Tang court for peace talks. Why are you looking for me?"

Li Feng didn't expect that the other party came to him to talk about peace talks.However, he quickly refused.Although he promised to help Li Chengqian take a look, or give some advice, but he didn't intend to take the matter on himself, he would be a dog-headed military adviser.

Besides, this kind of matter should be discussed in a formal occasion, like now, no matter the time or place, it is not right.If this matter is leaked out, who knows what troubles will be caused.

"Hmph, it's a shame that I still treat you so heartily. I didn't expect you to be so cowardly. You really think I don't know. Although the Tang court appointed the prince of the Tang Dynasty to preside over the negotiation, but, Who doesn't know that the crown prince is following behind you, King Yong. The reason why the emperor is so relieved to let the prince handle this matter is because you are on the sidelines. In the end, you are the one who really makes up his mind, no You know what I said is right, my Royal Highness Yongwang"

Hearing Li Feng's refusal, Yang Qian looked angry, and then began to expose Li Feng's background.For Li Feng, she is 1 caring, how can she not find out Li Feng's background.

She is very clear about what Li Feng has done recently.While being extremely surprised, it also forced her to pay more attention to Li Feng.

"It seems that you have put in a lot of effort. Okay, let's talk about it, how to talk about it. But, I don't know, on the Turkic side, can you count the number of tables with your words?"

Hearing what the other party said, Li Feng was also shocked.You know, he has always been quite low-key. Unexpectedly, the other party investigated him so clearly, which made him start to feel vigilant.

but.Since he promised Li Chengqian to help him, Li Feng also had to take care of this moment.Now, the other party actually made an appointment to meet him in advance, and he also wanted to see what the other party was planning to do.Anyway, now it's just an advance notice, not a formal negotiation.Touching the opponent's hole cards first is beneficial and harmless.

at the same time.He was also a little curious about Yang Qian's identity in the Turkic side.

"That's right, since I asked you to come here, of course I can do it right when I speak. I'm a timid concubine, but I don't dare to joke with your Highness Yongwang, giggling. Don't worry, I can't eat yours. This time, also It's just a breath in advance. It's endless and annoying when you get it, isn't it?"

Seeing that Li Feng agreed to stay, Yang Qian immediately regained her charming demeanor just now.

"Hee hee. Actually, the reason why I have to talk to you is because my family believes in you. Besides, your Royal Highness the King of Yong is brave and invincible on the battlefield, and my family is not willing to meet you on the battlefield in the future. Therefore, after much deliberation, it would be more appropriate to talk to you first."

"There are only two main contents of this peace talk. First of all, of course, it is to form friendly neighbors. The servants will not tell lies in front of real people. Now, whether it is for Datang or me, Turkic, it is already It is not easy to develop weapons. Although the Tang Dynasty is rich, in recent years, it has been fighting for two years, especially this year, and it has been two consecutive wars. I think. The Tang Dynasty is a little bit powerless at the moment. As for the Turks, they also need time to work hard. Adjustment."

"Therefore, the truce at this moment is very urgent for both the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. The Turks need to rest and recuperate, but the Tang Dynasty seems to need it even more. You know, not only the neighbors of the Tang Dynasty It’s just Turks. Tubo, Goryeo, and Silla, after these years of cultivation, the national power has become stronger and stronger, and the Tang Dynasty has to think about it, doesn’t it?”

"Besides, there is now a vast desert between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. It is not an easy task to use troops against the Turks. Although the Tang Dynasty has strong troops, my Turkic warriors are not vegetarians. If you really want swordsmen Seeing each other, in the end, it will only benefit the surrounding countries. It can be said that the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's benefit."

……

Yang Qian kept talking there, and Li Feng just listened there.It has to be said that Yang Qian's eloquence is quite remarkable, and her words seem to be full of sincerity.However, Li Feng was not very interested in these things. This peace talk was something that Li Shimin and the others had already agreed upon.The pros and cons of it must have been very clear in their minds, and Li Feng didn't need to worry about that.

It just made him more and more confused about what kind of person this woman in front of him was.Look, now when it comes to business, it seems like a different person again.Li Feng was a little confused as to which one was her real character.Maybe it's all of them, Li Feng thought to himself.

"Well, there's no need to talk about these. Now that the peace talks have been confirmed, the gains and losses of various interests have naturally been considered clearly. There is no need for this. Let's talk about how to prepare for the peace talks this time."

Li Feng is always the kind of master who gets straight to the point, and he doesn't think about why peace talks are necessary.All he wanted to know now was the content of the talks and what they were talking about.

"Although the peace talks seem complicated, there are only two themes. One, of course, goes without saying, and that is the signing of a letter of credence and a peace treaty between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks."

"There is another thing, that is, the business between the two countries. Everyone knows that the Silk Road is the wealth road of the Tang Dynasty. Every year, a large number of goods enter and leave the Tang Dynasty through this channel. Not only makes Datang's goods more abundant, but also allows countless gold and silver to flow into Datang continuously."

"Actually, the reason why the Tang Dynasty regards the Turks as a thorn in the flesh, apart from the previous hatred between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, is that the biggest reason is that the Turks blocked the Silk Road. Even, including this time, the mobilization of troops against Tuyuhun was also for the sake of For this reason, I don’t know if I’m right?”

Seeing Li Feng's calm expression, Yang Qian could only get into the topic faster.She was really worried that Li Feng lost his patience and left directly.

"Therefore, in order to show our sincerity, we are willing to work with Datang to jointly maintain the smooth flow of the Silk Road. The Turkic side can ensure that all business travelers in the Turkic territory will be protected, how about it?"

After finishing the long story, Yang Qian stared closely at Li Feng, wanting to see his reaction.If it was in the past, if it was the fourth son of the Li family that she said she knew, she would never have said such things no matter what.Because, that is simply playing the piano against the cow.

However, after a period of detailed investigation and understanding, she suddenly discovered that the person in front of her was no longer the silly boy she used to know.Think about the things he did during this time.Especially the Monument Square, she couldn't help but be amazed.

Even if it was her instead.She felt ashamed that she didn't have the ability to build such a large-scale square without the support of strong financial and material resources.However, looking at others, not only did he spend nothing in the early stage, but he also earned a grand slam in the end.Such a whimsical idea is simply unheard and unseen.

Therefore, she believes that as long as she talks about opening a business route.Li Feng must be able to understand how beneficial this matter is to Datang.

"Trade? The Silk Road? This is a bit interesting. How to implement it, let's talk about it. I don't think you Turks are so generous that you just give and don't get anything in return. You will definitely not be like Lei Feng."

How important the Silk Road was to Datang.Of course Li Feng knew.In the same way, I also understand that it is indeed what Yang Qian said.One of the most important reasons why the Tang Dynasty used troops against Tuyuhun and never forgot the Turks was because of the Silk Road.

Although the world is ashamed of business.Belittle businessmen everywhere.However, this is just a means of enlightenment, and it is for the needs of the ruler.And as a ruler, he understands better than anyone else that this business is also very important.After all, who doesn't want to do things that make money.

Look at those princes and nobles in Chang'an City.Which households have their own shops and businesses.Even some of the more powerful ones have their own cavalry at home, specializing in foreign trade.After all, the profit of this foreign trade is really scary.

The Silk Road is the most important of several international trade routes, and it is also the most prosperous channel for business exchanges.However, this channel must pass through the Turkic border, that is, the Western Regions.As a result, the caravans that come and go are often harassed and killed, which seriously affects foreign commerce.

There are many kinds of love and hatred between people, but there is often only one kind of hatred between countries, and that is profit.Between countries, everything pays attention to the word "benefit".It can be said that there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.

But now, the Turkic side even took the initiative to propose a proposal to jointly maintain this economic lifeline.In any case, for Datang, it is a great thing.

However, there is a good saying that there is no such thing as a free lunch.You know, it is not a simple matter to maintain such an economic lifeline.At least, in order to prevent horse thieves and robbers from robbing, a large number of troops must be sent to encircle or protect.The cost of this is not a small amount.

"Heck, I knew it was right to talk to you first. However, although we intend to make friends with Datang and maintain a peaceful coexistence. However, compared to Datang, I, Turkic, are very poor. But I can’t afford it. Besides, if you do that, you won’t be able to explain it to everyone.”

"As you said just now, no one makes a loss-making business. In the same way, the cheapness can't be taken for nothing. Since we give convenience to those businessmen and they pay something in return, that's a matter of course, isn't it?"

After hearing Li Feng's words, Yang Qian smiled coquettishly again.She knew that her previous thoughts were right.Sure enough, Li Feng understood right away.In this way, things will be much easier to handle.Therefore, the eyes looking at Li Feng are also full of different colors.

"You mean, tariffs?"

Li Feng didn't notice Yang Qian's strange eyes at all.Instead, his heart was shocked, and then he said to Yang Qian with a face full of shock.To protect the legitimate interests of the business travellers, the business travellers will then pay certain fees to the Turks and the Tang Dynasty. Isn’t this just a tariff?

"Tariff, what tariff?"

However, it was obvious that Yang Qian couldn't understand the new vocabulary that came out of Li Feng's mouth. She opened her eyes wide and asked Li Feng curiously. (To be continued.
