Chapter 907: Convenience
Next, the envoys of the Rather Empire and the Liusang Empire visited one after another, and they all brought a lot of precious gifts, Yuan Fang accepted them all with a smile, and then vetoed them all with a straight face.
On the other hand, Yuan Fang's attitude towards the envoys of the Rather Empire was slightly better, and he did not immediately reject his request for the return of the occupied land and compensation reduction, but said that he would consider it and discuss it with Yang Xing.
The envoys of several countries have been in the imperial capital of the Dongsheng Empire for more than a month, and for such a long time, they have visited the high-ranking officials and powerful figures of the empire, and they have given a lot of gifts, and a lot of silver has been spent, in order to find someone to help talk, return the lost land, and pay less compensation, but such a long time of efforts have been in vain with a decision by Yang Xing, because Yang Xing handed over the negotiation matters to Yuan Fang with full responsibility, which is the last thing the envoys of various countries want to see, and now they have to go to Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang is known as the officialdom stirring up, those officials' evaluation of him is naturally not good, the envoys of several countries heard from these officials that Yuan Fang, who can be said to be an absolute big man in the Dongsheng Empire, has a few bad personal virtues, greedy, narrow-minded, using power for personal gain, etc., anyway, there is no good evaluation, and Yuan Fang, in order to obtain more benefits for future negotiations, treats the visits of envoys from various countries indifferently, and confirms these subjective slanders. The envoys of the Ningyuan Empire and the Liusang Empire met afterwards to discuss, and knew that this matter might not be easy to deal with, so they sent letters back one after another to inform the monarchs of various countries of the matter, so that their own emperors could make up their minds.
It stands to reason that the envoys of various countries have arrived in the imperial capital for many days, and the negotiations should have been carried out a long time ago, but Yang Xing delayed again and again, first waiting for fate to come back to discuss, and then, things changed again, and the envoy of the Wanliu Empire arrived.
The emperor of the Wanliu Empire has been in a very bad mood recently, when he learned the news that the Storm Fleet and the Sea Wolf Fleet were all defeated by the Dongsheng Empire, he thought that he had heard it wrong, and it was unbelievable, but after many parties verified that the news was true, this news caused an uproar in the Wanliu Empire.
Some people are the main battle, thinking that the Dongsheng Empire is still the little-known small country before, there is nothing to fear, since the fleet is defeated, then send more land forces to destroy it in the past, and some people are calmer, thinking that since the Dongsheng Empire has the ability to defeat two powerful fleets, the strength should not be underestimated, and it should be treated calmly and equally, and finally the emperor of the Wanliu Empire sent an envoy to the Dongsheng Empire to find out the truth of the other party, when he received the first reply he was stupid, the Dongsheng Empire actually has an air force, The reason why their own Storm Fleet and Sea Wolf Fleet were completely annihilated was because of these extremely fast airships flying in the sky, when he heard that Yuan Fang ran to the palace of the Rather Empire and the Yuanhe Empire with the airships to show off their might, but these two countries had no way at all, thinking that if the Dongsheng Empire did the same for himself, the emperor of the Wanliu Empire became worried, and ordered the envoys to make friends with Dongsheng as much as possible, and it was best to get the technology of the airship, at all costs.
It didn't take long for the envoys of the Wanliu Empire to arrive in the Dongsheng Imperial Capital, and it still took a period of preparation and communication with the emperor of the Wanliu Empire, which took time, so the negotiations had been delayed for so long and had not started.
In April, the weather was warm and humid in early spring, the land was already covered with green, and the prisoners of war of the Wanliu Empire had been in Nanzhou of the Dongsheng Empire for a period of time, and they gradually got used to the current life, no war, no training, and no freedom, but only high-intensity labor and so-called ideological transformation.
Nowadays, Nanzhou has undergone earth-shaking changes, most of the former wasteland has now become fertile land, in addition to the local people, there are many people from Beizhou or other places to settle down in their own land, the fields are to sow suitable seeds, and then, just wait for the seeds to sprout and mature and harvest, most of the work of taking care of the farmland is undertaken by the prisoners of war scattered in various places, and the people need to pay a little silver and food.
Let's put it this way, the Dongsheng Empire is recovering like spring, vibrant, with unlimited development of the Air Force, take the biggest change in the imperial capital, now the streets of the imperial capital are all paved with asphalt pavement, on the road, you can see pedestrians riding bicycles everywhere, the shop signs on both sides of the street are all unified and specifications, it looks neat and orderly and beautiful, if you know how to do it, you will also find that there is a small metal sign in the lower right corner of these signs, and the sign has a star mark, the color and size are all the same, only the number of stars is different, some two stars, some three stars, the most one star, as for the four stars, it is rare to see, this is the star rating proposed by Yuan Fang, according to the credibility of the store to give a star rating, so that customers who come to buy goods can see at a glance and better restrain the merchants.
In addition, on both sides of the street, there are many billboards plastered with various posters, from time to time there will be passers-by standing up, the advertisements of various shops are dazzling, and the visitors from other places who need to buy goods can be seen at a glance, and it is easy to buy what they need according to the above address, which is convenient for customers at the same time, and also brings more business to these businesses.
To say that the people of the imperial capital are most concerned, in addition to those airships in the sky, is a small corner of the southwest area of the imperial capital, where, used to be a middle-class residential area, here, originally some old houses, now, those old houses have been demolished, turned into a construction site, this is the first large-scale investment in the field of construction by the Meihua Chamber of Commerce, to rebuild with a new concept, to build a convenient and beautiful modern residential community.
The reason why the people of the imperial capital are so concerned is that they heard that the houses here not only do not need to go to the well every day to fetch water, but the water pipes will be directly connected to every household, and as long as the switch is turned on when used, the clean water will flow out along the pipes, which is very convenient.
There is also heating, although now the winter has passed, but the winter will still come again, the heating here is unified heating, when the weather is cold, there will be a special person to send hot water into the radiator at home, and no longer have to burn the stove or use the carbon stove to heat up, the most anticipated is the bathroom, to say that the people have the most headache every day? Of course, it is a toilet, although the imperial capital is large, the population is also large, correspondingly, the utilization rate of land is extremely high, except for some high-end mansions, most of the people use public toilets, or prepare toilets at home.
