The Xiwu envoys were also surprised to see him. "Your Highness, Prince Yan, why are you here? Didn't you say you wanted to discuss something important?"
King Yan smiled and acted very happy. "We have discussed it and both parties have reached an agreement."
"What?" Upon hearing this, the Xiwu envoy became unhappy. They were actually left aside. Was this isolation?
The leader was the most famous nobleman in Xiwu, named Hutu. All the queens in history came from this family.
He couldn't help but ask, "What did you guys agree on?"
"I can't tell you the details." The King of Yan said mysteriously, "I can only say that in terms of strength and financial resources, our Chu State is the strongest."
Hu Tu and his group looked at each other. They knew every word, but not when they were put together. "What does this mean?" A provocation?
The subordinate of the Prince of Yan suddenly said, "My prince just ordered the best tea and silk, the most exquisite jewelry from the merchant company. The village chief of Qingping was very satisfied, which paved the way for our future cooperation."
It sounds like a plain sentence, but it seems to have a deeper meaning.
"You're the only one who talks too much." King Yan glared at his subordinate in anger, "Don't listen to his nonsense. We didn't buy anything, not a single thing."
The more you deny, the more fake it seems, and the more suspicious you become.
"Your Highness, this is clearly part of the agreement..." The subordinate felt a little aggrieved.
"Shut up." The King of Yan shouted softly, with a hint of concealment. "Everyone, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
He turned around and left with his men, walking very quickly, as if he was escaping in a panic.
Xiwu and his group frowned. What happened without their knowledge?
"Master Hutu, what do you think we should do?"
Hu Tu hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go to the merchant house to check the situation and then decide what to do next. Do you have any money with you?"
"I brought it." These were all prominent nobles and very rich.
As soon as they came in, they asked to see Mu Wanqing. Mu Wanqing was counting her money happily. She made hundreds of thousands in one day and was very happy.
If only a few more big fat sheep could come, she would be able to complete her KPI for this year.
Now that you have money, you should study glass and glass mirrors. These are luxury goods, and the powerful and wealthy are flocking to them and love them everywhere.
These two are the magic tools for making money.
She wants to install large glass windows in all the houses she lives in, and also wants a glass greenhouse to grow vegetables in it during the winter.
Well, record it all.
At this moment, Mu Zicheng knocked on the door and came in, "Sister, someone from Xiwu is here and wants to see you."
Mu Wanjing laughed, another big fat sheep came, and he was sharpening his knife to kill the pigs and sheep.
She rolled her eyes and said, "Clean up and put all the samples out."
"Okay." Mu Zicheng was very excited. When it comes to cheating people, his sister is a professional.
Only a fool would try to take advantage of his sister!
Hu Tu followed Mu Zicheng in and saw at a glance the box spread out on the table. It was filled with silver bills, a thick stack that was about to overflow.
Next to the box were account books and lists, and vaguely the signature of the King of Yan could be seen...
Hearing the noise, Mu Wanqing closed the account book and stood up with a smile to greet the distinguished guest.
Mu Zicheng served tea and snacks, and also enthusiastically introduced the new and novel snacks.
Hu Tu had no mood to eat. He had only one thought in his mind, which was to find out what agreement she had reached with the King of Yan. "Master Qingping, didn't you say the King of Yan was here? Why didn't you see him?"
"Just left." Mu Wanqing said everything in one breath, as if she was heartless. "I just reached a cooperation agreement with the Prince of Yan. His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan may seem serious, but I didn't expect him to be so generous in private. It's really impressive."
She was full of admiration, "Chu is really rich. It seems that its comprehensive national strength is far superior to other countries. No wonder King Yan is so confident. We should find the strongest partner."
Hutu's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, they were secretly building relationships and deliberately excluding Xiwu. This was not a good thing. "That's not right. Our Xiwu is not inferior to any other country."
Mu Wanqing was stunned, a little unconvinced, "No, the King of Yan just told me that Xiwu looks rich, but is actually the poorest. The nobles are all pretending to be rich. They obviously don't have much money to buy things, but they still pretend... Ahem, I didn't say that."
Hutu was immediately angry. You, King Yan, say one thing in public and another behind their backs, and you actually stabbed them in the back.
Fine, if you are unkind, I will be unjust. "What did he buy?"
Mu Wanqing put the list in front of him. Hu Tu took a few glances and confirmed that it was King Yan who bought it. Such a large order was a bit abnormal. It seemed that some truth was covered up under the banner of buying things.
He pursed his lips. It was indeed a bit expensive.
However, this competition is about financial strength and national strength! He doesn't want to be outdone by the Chu people!
"According to this order, double."
He said it lightly, but his heart was bleeding. Oh my god, it would cost millions.
"Are you sure? You have to pay on the spot. No credit...ah, I didn't say you often buy on credit."
As soon as these words came out, Hu Tu couldn't help but burst out, "Asshole! How dare you slander them behind their backs!"
How can this be tolerated?
"He is poor. How can he boast about having only a few hundred thousand silver? Haha, it's ridiculous."
He winked and his men threw one million silver notes on the table.
In fact, he didn't have that much money, so he and his friends pooled together and made it happen.
Mu Wanqing raised her thumb and praised loudly, "You are generous, heroic, and noble. You are much more generous than King Yan, so you also have priority."
This is what Hutu and his group are most concerned about. "What priority?"
"Priority to purchase a water truck."
Hu Tu was extremely shocked, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "What? That thing can be sold?"
One of the purposes of his trip was to get the blueprints of the waterwheel. If he couldn't get them, he would... steal, rob, kill, burn, whatever means he could to get a waterwheel and disassemble it.
It’s the same if you dismantle it and find someone to draw the blueprints.
Mu Wanqing put her hand to her mouth and made a gesture to keep quiet, "Shh, I'll sell it secretly. I can only get ten water trucks within my ability. The highest bidder wins."
She knew that these people were coming for the water truck. Instead of letting them cause trouble and even kill people, it would be better to sell it to them at a high price.
The water truck is not a military material, so even if they got it, they would not be able to make it themselves, because some parts are extremely precise and the data cannot be wrong at all. In the end, they still have to go back and buy it from her.
Even if there are particularly talented professionals, it may take them a year or two to study if they are lucky, and by that time, they will have fallen far behind.
Ten copies? Hu Tu was so excited that he had to buy them. "Then you said priority?"
Mu Wanqing smiled and said, "At the same price, I will definitely give priority to you. I can't possibly not make money, right?"
Hu Tu's mouth twitched. Such a shrewd girl was really annoying. "I want all ten. Name your price."
"That won't work." Mu Wanqing flatly refused. "The King of Yan said it first, and he bought so many things from me. How can I go back on my word? You must be trustworthy when doing business."
"I'll give you more money." Hu Tu said he could spend money until she fell in love.
Mu Wanqing is very principled. "That won't work either. I plan to hold an internal auction in three days, and only give out 20 invitations. Of course, I will definitely reserve a water truck for you. I think you are a good friend."
Hutu's eyes flashed, "I want the formula of cement, please name a price."
Mu Wanqing couldn't help but laugh. In their eyes, she was just a profit-seeking woman?
"This is not a matter of money. I don't want to be a traitor. My people and I still have to live in Qi. Our ancestors and our descendants have been living on this land. We can't just focus on the immediate benefits."
Hutu looked at her deeply, this was an ambitious man, "My emperor can take you as his concubine."
Mu Wanqing looked down on him, "Your Highness is just a canary in a cage. How can you be as free as I am? Even you and Prince Yan have to be polite in front of me. I just can't stand being bullied. When I get angry, I want to kill a few people, such as the ones who are on top of me."
Oh my god, this is simply treason. How could Hutu dare to send such a traitor who has no respect for the king or his father into the harem?
"Nothing to discuss?"
"Unless..." Mu Wanqing smiled slightly.
"Unless what?" Hu Tu asked impatiently.
Mu Wanqing brushed her hair, revealing her smooth forehead and bright black eyes. "Unless I become the king of Xiwu, it is only natural for me to seek benefits for my country."
Everyone gasped. He really dared to think about it, but they didn't dare to listen.
Commander Ji got the news immediately and rushed to see Mu Wanqing, "Are you really going to sell the waterwheel? Have you got the emperor's permission?"
Although she was the maker of the waterwheel, she couldn't sell it just because she wanted to.
Mu Wanqing would write a letter of greeting to the emperor and empress every month, and put it inside Du Shaoxuan's letter to him, both to keep in touch and to report her own dynamics. "I've already said it in the letter, well, just take it as his consent."
Is this still possible? Commander Ji was overwhelmed. "Don't do anything stupid. You don't need to earn this much money. You earn nearly a million a day. You should have earned enough."
Mu Wanqing's ability to make money is so strong that it is impossible not to admire it. I don't know where she gets so many tricks and she can even get money from nobles of other countries. This ability is really amazing.
"Who would complain about not having enough money?" Mu Wanqing said with a smile, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. These people are here for the water trucks, cement and to rebuild the intelligence system, so I'll give them a little sweetness first and then deal with them."
The intelligence systems of these two countries in Da Qi were destroyed by Du Shaoxuan himself. Not only did he uproot the Xiliang area, but he also followed the clues to remove many nails in other places.
It is said that the capital city was also cleansed, which was an action of historic magnitude.
Don’t blame these two countries for being anxious.
"When will the young commander come back?"
Du Shaoxuan has been busy with this matter, personally directing and supervising the battle, and is extremely busy.
Mu Wanqing curled her lips and said, "I don't know. He didn't tell me." Not even a letter, huh.
Commander Ji glanced at her and said tactfully, "These two countries came to Ganzhou at the same time. I wonder what the mystery is behind this. Have you found out anything?"
Now that we are relatives, we are in the same boat and can discuss some things together.
Mu Wanqing shook her head slightly. "Anyway, I took away all the money they used to rebuild their intelligence system. Without money, they can't move forward, let alone rebuild."
When the next batch arrives, she will find a way to take it away!
Commander Ji looked at her steadily and said in a low voice, "I think there is an insider who has colluded with them, and his identity is not ordinary."
Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows. "You mean the high-ranking officials in the capital? Then, who are they?"
