Chapter 1866: former lychee tree
The Lychee Tree Before Chapter 1866
Helian Rongjiu glanced at the Marquis of Ning An: "Marquis, what do you think?"
"Your Majesty." The Hou of Ning'an said, "Strawberries, longan, giant seedless lychees, etc. are all the efforts of Zhi Ye Zhai, and they are the property of the common people, not the royal family. Your Majesty should ask Zhi Ye Zhai's owner for his opinion. After all, they grow these for a living. If they are widely planted in the future, it will affect their family's livelihood in the future."
Suo Cheng agreed: "That's right."
They all understood the meaning of the emperor. When the former Minister of the Ministry of Commerce asked the emperor to return the lychee tree to the court, he would not agree, let alone give it to the enemy.
There are still many people in their country who have never eaten it, and the people in their own country have not planted it yet, so it is impossible to give it to the people of the enemy country to try it first.
Helian Rongjiu said: "Since it involves the livelihood of the common people, as the emperor, it is naturally impossible for me to force them. It is impossible for me to give you the crown prince, the king of Li, strawberries and longan, and the giant seedless lychee tree is more It is impossible."
"After all, Zhiye Zhai doesn't have many lychees. They were only cultivated this year, and each one is very valuable. However, some of the lychee trees in our country are in the name of the imperial court. I can give you a few. , the lychees from those trees also taste good.”
I heard that lychee trees are very picky about the environment. Both Chongyan and Cangda are located in the northern region. There are ice and snow weather for nearly half a year. Even if they are given to them, they may not be able to grow and live. It doesn't matter.
The lacquer carving industry knew that they could not easily agree, and also knew that if they did not agree to the other party's conditions, they could really go to war again, and said helplessly: "Okay, I promise, I can write a letter and return to China immediately, within a month. You should get a response."
Wen Renbo saw this and had to compromise: "I agree too."
Helian Rongjiu laughed suddenly.
"But..." Lacquer Carving Industry added: "We have a small request, please agree."
Suo Cheng said: "Let's talk about it first, as long as it's not too much, we can consider it."
Qidiaoye said: "This request is very simple for you, that is, we also want to play in the capital freely. Compared with the capital of our country, the capital is really too prosperous, and we also want to learn more. But someone has been following us, and it really feels restrained.”
Helian Rongjiu said, "Those people are here to protect you. If something happens to you in Xuanqing, I won't be able to explain it to your family."
protect them?
Explain to their family?
What said is really high-sounding, what Helian Rongjiu did just now, he almost threatened them with a knife on their necks.
Lacquer Carving Industry said: "We don't need your people to protect us, we also brought people."
Wen Renbo also said: "We all know kung fu, and we are not weak."
Helian Rongjiu was trying to find a reason to continue to refuse, but suddenly thought of something, so he had to agree to them.
The two of them finally had something they were satisfied with, and they both felt much better.
After the envoys had all left, Meng Zhiming asked, "Your Majesty, why did you agree to them? If they get out of our sight and do something unfavorable to the people, what should we do?"
Helian Rongjiu smiled and said: "Who said that if I promised them, I would not continue to send people to monitor them?"
