Shangluo City is not big.
If compared with the cities of Daxia, it is not even as big as Linjiang City where Fu Xiaoguan once lived.
As for the buildings...the buildings here are made of bricks and stones, but they are not beautiful at all. As for the palace in Shangluo City... well, the word "Zhenhe Palace" has nothing to do with it. It is a low building surrounded by a circle, with a maximum of only three floors. It is the Guozheng Palace, the center of power in Shangluo Kingdom.
The king of Shangluo Kingdom and more than thirty ministers received Fu Xiaoguan and his party at the State Hall.
The two emperors sat on the high platform of the State Palace, Henry stood behind them, and all the other ministers stood on both sides below.
The officials from the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Rites brought by Fu Xiaoguan far exceeded the officials of Shangluo Kingdom. As soon as they stopped in the hall, they occupied a huge space on the left side, forming a formation with the officials of Shangluo Kingdom on the right. A sharp contrast——
The ministers of Daxia were all well-dressed and energetic. Although the ministers of Shangluo were also extremely excited, they seemed a little timid in front of the ministers of Daxia. They glanced at the officials of Daxia, not even daring to look at them. This was due to the timidity and inferiority deep in their hearts, and the fear of Daxia in their hearts.
Only in terms of clothing, the official uniforms of Daxia officials are extremely gorgeous. What are these officials of Shangluo State wearing?
It's just coarse cloth and linen.
This is the embodiment of national strength. Obviously, the Eastern Kingdom of God, who does not know where it is, is a great existence that crushes the Shangluo Kingdom, both militarily and economically.
"Your Majesty, the great Emperor of Great Xia, you led your invincible and powerful army to destroy the Frankie invaders and saved Shangluo. The whole country of Shangluo is grateful to your majesty!"
"Shangluo Kingdom respects the strong. I, Emperor Doha of Shangluo Kingdom, am willing to take Shangluo Kingdom to submit my submission to the Emperor of Daxia! I, Emperor Doha, am willing to follow the Emperor of Daxia forever and listen at any time. Your teachings! ”
After Henry translated these words, Emperor Doha of Shangluo stood up. He took out a seal and knelt on one knee in front of Fu Xiaoguan.
He held up the seal carved from square white jade and presented it respectfully.
Of course Fu Xiaoguan didn't mind this. He took the seal with a smile and said: "Daxia is the Eastern Kingdom of God, a state of etiquette! Daxia has a vast territory, and I am rich in the world. Daxia has been from Not to use strong force to invade any country. Daxia’s principle is to establish a good diplomatic order with all countries in the world. Within the framework of this order, all countries must follow the rules set by Daxia! ”
"Doha, please get up. Shangluo Kingdom is the first country I have visited on this trip. Shangluo Kingdom is still Shangluo Kingdom. My purpose here is not to occupy this place, let alone to Slave you!"
"I will leave some ministers to lead your development, and Shangluo Kingdom will usher in a bright future. Of course, Shangluo Kingdom is under the protection of Daxia. If any other country dares to invade Shangluo, it is equivalent to If you offend Daxia, I will punish him!"
"..."
Only the words of Fu Xiaoguan and Henry were echoing in the hall - every time Fu Xiaoguan said a paragraph, Henry would translate a paragraph. Both the officials from Daxia and Shangluo listened very carefully.
For Daxia officials, what they witnessed was the first dialogue between countries.
For the officials of Shangluo Kingdom, this directly involves the future future and destiny of Shangluo Kingdom.
Fortunately, Daxia was too wealthy, and the young emperor simply looked down on Shangluo, a small and poor place.
Shangluo is still the same Shangluo. The difference is that His Majesty will arrange for some ministers to stay in the Shangluo court. This is a good thing. They can learn more and more advanced experience in governing the country from these Daxia officials.
His Majesty will also leave a thousand soldiers in Shangluo City, which is also a good thing. Their powerful fighting power may be enough to equal ten!
With these invincible warriors here, Shufeng Kingdom and Tianyao Kingdom will not dare to invade. Shangluo Kingdom can usher in the time to recuperate, and the people can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"...The so-called exchange is not limited to economics, it also includes military, culture and politics!"
"In order for Daxia and Shangluo to have good communication in the future, I am determined to build a military port on the coastline of Shangluo!"
"In the days to come, I will send someone to take the envoys of the Luo Kingdom to Daxia to see the prosperity of Daxia and learn the culture of Daxia."
"In addition, I will send a warship back, and I will bring many craftsmen and more warriors."
"I will open a school in Sangluo City. The people of the two countries need to learn each other's languages to facilitate communication."
"Daxia does not interfere in the internal affairs of Shangluo Kingdom. The Daxia officials who stay in Shangluo Kingdom only guide the commercial development of Shangluo Kingdom to promote commercial exchanges between the two countries."
"The army of Daxia will not help Shangluo State suppress the poor people, but will only help Shangluo State resist the invasion of foreign enemies!"
"Doha, is still the king of Shangluo Kingdom, still holds the authority of Shangluo Kingdom, and has the same power as before, but in terms of economic policy, Doha... you have to adopt the methods of my ministers."
……
This was an unprecedented congress. In this congress, Daxia and Shangluo established a superior-subordinate relationship between monarchs and ministers. This was of course extremely beneficial to Daxia, and it was equivalent to Daxia indirectly dominating Shangluo. The fate of the Luo Kingdom.
There are only two things that Fu Xiaoguan likes about Shangluo Kingdom - that natural port, which is the springboard for Daxia to enter the great voyage, and it can also be regarded as an important node on the sea, the Silk Road, and the Road.
The other thing is this land of infinite possibilities!
He has not yet gone to the other two richer and more powerful countries, and he does not yet know what superior resources Shangluo Country has. These are not important at the moment. The ministers he left behind will explore this land and will To tap into the huge potential here.
In this palace of government, the emperors of the two countries signed two letters of credence——
The first is that Shangluo Kingdom declared itself a vassal to Daxia!
The second is the economic and trade agreement between the two countries!
Shangluo's national strength was so backward that a lot of things were added to the originally drafted trade agreement, such as the construction of ships, the upgrading of workshops, etc.
Of course, Daxia's contribution is conditional. The currency of Shangluo Kingdom will be gradually replaced by Daxia currency.
In the future, when merchants from Daxia enter Shangluo Kingdom, Shangluo Kingdom will give them tax exemption for five years and open access to all goods.
This is a bit bullying. The products of Shangluo Kingdom are still in their primitive stage. Once the products of Daxia are imported, the corresponding products of Shangluo Kingdom will have no place in the market.
The meeting dispersed in mutual satisfaction.
Doha sent people to recover the prince and took Fu Xiaoguan to his garden.
"I want to ask you, Daxia's goods are very expensive. Do you have gold or silver to pay for them in Luo Kingdom?" Fu Xiaoguan asked Doha extremely suspiciously as he and Doha sat in the pavilion.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, there are not many other countries in Shangluo, but there is really a lot of gold..."
Fu Xiaoguan's eyes lit up, He Sandao licked his lips, Doha suddenly felt that he had too many mouths, why did he feel like a sheep falling into a tiger's mouth?
"Your Majesty, the country with the most gold is actually Tianyao Kingdom!"
Doha leaned over and whispered: "They...really have three golden mountains!"
