There is no other reason, because Kazdaele, who had just finished fighting the Rebellion of Kings, was very poor. Most of their things were sold by them, and only a few things that could not be sold were still left.
The money sold was used to decorate today's reception.
Who told this Scorpion to pay so much attention to luxurious things!
Tracy felt very aggrieved.
They would prepare nearly two months in advance for today's reception. In order to cater to this scorpion's preferences, they sent a large number of people to inquire about the information and draw a conclusion.
This shiny scorpion is particularly fond of gold and luxurious things.
This can kill them.
Where did they get so many valuable things?
Originally, almost everything in the palace had been sold in order to raise military funds for the civil war.
Now we have planned a welcome party and sold it again.
Except for the things that support the facade, which really can't be sold, it's really empty.
Even the buckets in the underground wine cellar were sold.
Even his sister Theresia had to sell her personal belongings, such as skirts, gloves and socks.
Of course, the most intimate underwear and underwear are definitely not sold.
when he offered to sell them.
......
Tracy came out with a red slap mark on her face that day.
He could never forget Theresia's resentful look that day.
The clothes Theresia is currently wearing were taken from a certain green cat and modified.
The sales of Theresia's personal items really satisfied some perverted curiosity, and as a result, some items were sold for sky-high prices.
Hey ~
Tracy sighed silently in her heart and looked at the throne.
At least this one didn't sell out, otherwise it would be really shameless.
"Mr. Huang Cheng, you are tired from the journey, so we have prepared a lunch for you. We hope you can enjoy Kazdale's special food."
When the visit was almost over, the bell in the hall just rang.
Theresia made this request smoothly.
Huang Cheng looked at the expectant eyes of the girl in front of him, and it was hard for Huang Cheng to refuse.
Just in time to see what delicious food is available here.
So everyone followed Tracy to a room that finally had furniture.
Inside is a long table, very similar to the aristocratic round table that Huang Cheng had seen in TV dramas before.
Theresia took one of Huang Cheng's pliers and placed it in a high place, which was the most distinguished position in the Yan Kingdom's dining etiquette.
After everyone took their seats--there were actually only three people.
Theresia stirred up a topic, and everyone was chatting and laughing.
This topic is about landscape.
However, under Theresa's guidance, he began to tilt towards the direction of people's livelihood, consciously or unconsciously, probably talking about how the people were living, and how miserable they were just after the war.
These are all said in a very subtle way.
Huang Cheng couldn't find anything wrong with it.
So it went for a while.
Waiters entered the room carrying trays in their hands.
As the round covers on the dinner plates were opened, one after another beautifully made and generous dishes were displayed in front of Huang Cheng's eyes.
Most of the dishes are unique to Kazdaele, but there are also some Yanguo home-cooked dishes mixed in.
Two sets of tableware are also provided, one is Chinese style and the other is Western style.
Doesn't look bad.
Huang Cheng picked up a piece of braised tenderloin with great interest and took a bite.
Um~
Then he tried other dishes and discovered something interesting.
All the condiments used in these dishes are not from his company.
You must know that he has a monopoly on all the seasonings in Kazdaele. and the import, export and production of sugar.
Because Huang Cheng's manufacturing technology is very advanced, the products he makes are generally better than other products.
You can taste it as soon as you eat it.
What is this hinting at me?
The answer is already obvious.
They want to fight for their own sovereignty, the food and rights in their mouths.
Huang Cheng secretly laughed in his heart
It seems that tonight's negotiation is very interesting.
The meal is over.
Huang Cheng was arranged to rest in a luxurious room.
Theresia said goodbye to her brother and walked into her room.
Inside there was a big green cat waiting for her.
Theresia entered the door and saw this big green cat. This big green cat was writing something, like a taut string, and finally relaxed and jumped directly onto the soft bed.
"Kelsey, how was my performance today?"
"Your Highness, your performance today is very good and normal. Based on the conversation I had with him 6 years ago, this Scorpion should be a relatively easy-to-talk person."
"Will the negotiations go smoothly tonight?"
Kelsey was writing something while answering her: "I am drafting a contract for you. I try to maximize our advantages, but the outcome of the negotiation depends on you."
Theresia stood up from the bed, then hugged Kelsey's waist, pressed her face against Kelsey's shoulder, and said playfully: "Kelsey, you know so much, how about you You can hold the negotiation tonight!"
Chapter 23 Negotiation between Good and Evil
In the evening, after dinner.
Negotiations also officially began.
People on both sides were sitting in their respective positions with their own ulterior motives.
There was a serious atmosphere in the air.
First, the beautiful Lady Theresia spoke.
Her gentle and melodious voice eased the serious atmosphere very well.
"Mr. Huang Cheng, as a new regime, we feel that we should abandon the previous treaties that were not shameful. We feel that we should launch new exchanges and cooperation."
"My side has unanimously decided that we want to take back the territory that we sold at a low price."
It's good to occupy the moral high ground first, but it's a pity that as a street lamp pendant, he has no morals.
But I still play with this princess.
So Huang Cheng said to Theresia: "I have roughly guessed the other party's request in advance, and I also agree with the other party's point of view. We need new communication and cooperation without bringing up the previous bad things."
possible!
Theresa felt a little happy when she saw Huang Cheng's statement, but then she was poured cold water on her.
Huang Cheng changed the topic, "But you also know that I am a business person and an entrepreneur. I also need a lot of people to support me. If I lose money here, those old guys will curse me to death." mine."
Huang Cheng is also talking nonsense here. There are only three people on their board of directors, and he is the absolute controlling person.
Naturally, Huang Cheng's actions will not be subject to any restrictions, and the other two are young people, although they are older than him.
"It's okay if you want to take back the territory you sold. Of course we are not hegemonic. As long as you can afford the price, I don't care."
"Then what price do you want?" It was Tracys who spoke.
"It's very simple, just give me the money. There is no need to lose your conscience. It's probably the original price for the land I sold again. There aren't many nobles who can afford it, so naturally you should be able to afford it."
"But I only exchange the territory. I want to remove all the things above, including all the increased grain production and the machines I built above. I want to remove all these things."
How should you take this move?
They should be able to scrape together the money to buy the territory, but how are you going to keep the things above?
To be honest, land is really worthless.
The land cannot be eaten. The soil quality on the land Huang Cheng purchased was not ordinary.
Just take a shovel and dig down a few times, and you can dig out some Originium fragments about one meter deep.
Damn it if such land can grow food.
Even agricultural experts from previous lives would shake their heads when they see this land.
They probably have to say that they can’t farm. It would be better to open a base on the moon to farm the land.
At least it can be grown without soil.
Although he has been dealing with this thing recently, due to the large area, he can't do much, and the environment there is still harsh.
Sure enough, when Huang Cheng made this request, the Sakazi side was dumbfounded.
They really can't handle this move.
Huang Cheng's request was really reasonable. When Huang Cheng bought it, there was really nothing on it, just a piece of bare soil.
