What they wanted to seize was the wealth of Qin.
If Qin really gave it, then...
The State of Jin would continue its attack on Qin under the pretext that the Qin general had killed prisoners.
However, upon hearing this news, Guo Kai showed joy and blurted out, "From what Your Majesty said, you agree to negotiate peace with our Qin State?"
Ji Chong'er smiled and said, "As long as you are sincere, everything will be easy to talk about."
Guo Kai bowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. I will convey your country's wishes to Xianyang. I hope that our two countries can be at peace with each other."
"As long as you are sincere, everything will be fine."
Ji Chong'er smiled without showing his teeth, and his eating manners were extremely ugly.

Ji Chong'er then asked, "What if Qi agreed to help Qin attack Chu and force it to withdraw its troops?"
Lin Xiangru said, "Your Majesty, if that is the case, we can take this opportunity to negotiate peace with Qin. After all, in the end, it will definitely not be our Jin State that will suffer the loss. That will be enough."
Hearing this, Ji Chong'er felt relieved and said with a smile, "Thanks to your help, I was able to control the Qin and Chu countries at my fingertips."
