Chapter 156 Xia Feng's Whimper



"Well, go ahead." Seeing that Xia Feng was in high spirits and ready to do something big, Ye Wanwan didn't persuade him to go back to sleep. After all, it's better to do less of these boring things! He's not a child anymore, so he'll naturally go to rest when he's tired.

Xia Feng walked out happily again, holding a pen and paper. The gloom on his face was gone, and the fatigue was completely washed away. He was completely a different person from when he had breakfast.

In response to this, Ye Wanwan could only smile and shake her head, and began to pack the gifts brought for the Queen of Yan Country. As for the Queen's preferences, there were very few things that the outside world could find out, and it was a bit difficult to cater to her preferences. If this was not possible, then she could only cast a wide net and take all the good things with her, just in case they were useful?

That night, the group who had just arrived at Yan Country in the afternoon had already been taken to the Yan Country palace. Perhaps this was the advantage of having a small country...

There was nothing fancy about the welcoming banquet. After a peaceful meal, everyone started talking about cooperation. However, the food from Yan Country really didn't suit the taste of the group.

After dinner, the Queen of Yan State took the initiative and asked Xia Feng about his sincerity in coming to cooperate.

Xia Feng, who was already prepared, was not afraid. He spoke freely according to the questions asked by everyone. However, after answering each question, he habitually looked behind him, and standing there was Ye Wanwan disguised as a maid.

"Could it be that I am not qualified to speak to Princess Yongqing?" When almost everyone had left, the Queen of Yan Kingdom fixed her eyes on Ye Wanwan, with an ambiguous smile on her lips.

Ye Wanwan, who had anticipated this, was not flustered. She stood up and saluted, "Your Majesty, you are joking. It's just that I am a little worried about my own apprentice coming here, so I thought of following behind and giving him a few words of advice."

"I've heard for a long time that Princess Yongqing is a kind-hearted woman with abilities no less capable than men, and is deeply trusted by His Majesty Darong. What can I get in return if I detain you here?" The Queen of Yan State laughed to herself, ignoring the reactions of others.

"Even when two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys. If the queen is angry, just come to me." Xia Feng, who just realized that his frequent turning back had revealed his identity as the teacher, became a little anxious after hearing this.

He knew how important his master was. If he was trapped here because of him, would he still be alive? Not only would others not let him go, he himself would not be able to forgive himself.

"Your apprentice is really protecting you." The queen chuckled, unable to figure out her emotions. She took out a new cup, poured a glass of wine, and ordered someone to send it to Ye Wanwan.

Ye Wanwan secretly called him an old fox, took a sip of wine, and said slowly, "Xia Feng is still young, so it's inevitable that he gets a little anxious when encountering things. Yongqing will drink a glass as punishment. If there is any offense, please forgive me, Queen."

"Regarding what Lord Xia just said, Princess Yongqing has nothing to add?" The Queen of Yan nodded and turned the topic back to the previous conversation.

"Of course there is, but Xia Feng has already made it very clear about the borrowing of water." Ye Wanwan was well prepared. She had discussed it before coming to Chuxi. It would be fine to put the issue of trade on the agenda. "Yongqing is a businessman, so let's talk about business?"

Ye Wanwan had discussed the issue of trade between the two countries with Rong Chen earlier, and she took over the full responsibility to handle it. There was no problem at all, so she was particularly at ease when she discussed it.

Unlike Darong, Yan Country has a small land area and little land suitable for growing crops. They need high-yield grains and other dry goods and mountain products. The market prospects of Yan Country are broad. After all, she really couldn't eat what she had to eat tonight. It is no exaggeration to say that it is not unfair that there are no fat people in Yan Country.

"...Trade naturally improves the relationship between the two countries. While merchants from both countries benefit from it, national tax revenue also plays an important role. It takes from the people and uses it for the people... If this positive development continues, the Queen can foresee the benefits."

Whether it was Ye Wanwan's well-organized system or her relaxed yet strict statement, the Queen of Yan was deeply amazed.

She had to admit that she was damn moved. As expected, the Princess Yongqing, who was personally conferred by His Majesty the Great Rong, was not just a title in vain. She was both beautiful and capable.

"No wonder he is so appreciated just for his business. Wherever Yongqing is, he will probably do well in his career." After listening to Ye Wanwan's introduction, the Queen of Yan Kingdom did not hide her admiration in her eyes at all, and her attitude was much kinder than before.

Ye Wanwan raised the exquisite cup in her hand and said loudly, "Then I wish us a happy cooperation in advance."

"Master, I messed up again." On the way back to the inn, Xia Feng kept his head down, feeling a little annoyed. He hesitated for a long time before saying this.

Ye Wanwan sighed. After all, the child was still a child and still lacked some experience. "Has the Queen agreed to cooperate with us?"

In fact, she really thought Xia Feng was a good negotiator, but she hadn't even used her backup plan yet. She was prepared to make concessions as an apology. After rounding it off, Xia Feng was saving her money...

"I agreed, but she almost detained the teacher here." Xia Feng still couldn't recover from that and was full of fear.

"Xia Feng, if the queen really wants to detain Sister Wanwan here, she will not point out Sister Wanwan's identity. She will just find an excuse to take her away." Lin Zijun, who was traveling with her, kindly explained that there is a world of difference between detaining a princess of a country openly and detaining her without her knowledge, and Sister Wanwan is not a princess without real power.

Xia Feng looked up in bewilderment, only to see Ye Wanwan nodding at him and encouraging him, "This is also your first time dealing with an old fox, so just learn from your mistakes. But remember, confidence is the most important thing in a negotiation."

"When you yourself are not confident, how can you convince others? Why should they believe in you? You did very well today, at least better than I expected." Ye Wanwan added.

Being a teacher is so hard, so comprehensive, but it's also quite interesting! The joy of the development system is probably nothing more than this. Watching everyone grow up and gradually become independent, how can it not be a thing that makes people feel full of happiness?

"Okay, thank you, Master." Xia Feng nodded heavily, tears of emotion streaming down his face. The Master was so kind to him, sob...
