Ge Erqiu and Luo Mengchao walked side by side into the West Palace, glanced at each other in unison, then snorted coldly, and then saluted in unison in Zhang Yuan's interested gaze:

"White Lotus Sect God Han Ge Erqiu, I have seen the King of the West River!"

"Luo Mengchao, the deputy sect leader of the Foreign Minister Luo Sect, meet the King of Xihe!"

Listening to the two different voices, Ge Erqiu scolded angrily, while Luo Mengchao glanced at Ge Erqiu with disdain and secretly scolded an idiot.

Zhang Yuan saw clearly on the high platform, a short greeting, and the unconcealed hostility to each other, it was not just as simple as being a rival, if you change places, maybe the two have been killed together, from this point of view, whether they have a grudge before, or their own personalities are conflicting, it is a place where Zhang Yuan can make good use of it.

And the two of them have one mouth, Ge Erqiu's reserved attitude, and Luo Mengchao's flattering oral language. all gave Zhang Yuan a certain qualitative.

In his previous life, Zhang Yuan also heard a little about the two of them, after all, the whole expedition was not small, but it was not big. Like many strangers, he regarded the expedition as his life, and naturally he knew it very well, and from the news of the court to the strange news of a certain area, where could the general news be without the attention of the irrigation party.

Now that he has seen the real person, the vague memory has also been evoked, and Zhang Yuan has some understanding of the completely different attitudes of the two. Ge Erqiu is the patriarch of the White Lotus Sect, his position is stable, and there are countless people who befriend him, so he is naturally very 'reserved' in front of Zhang Yuan.

And Luo Mengchao is different, he is a distant brother of the Luo sect leader, and he can climb to the position of the deputy sect leader. And he is in charge of the Yuan Dynasty, relying on his knot and ability, but he is not qualified enough. You know your own business. It is not that there are no people who say irresponsible things to him in Luojiao, but that there are many. If he hadn't been aware of current affairs, he would have been arranged on an idle fat difference at most, and he would not have been able to mix with today's position of power, under one person and above ten thousand. In the face of Zhang Yuan, he naturally let go of his body.

Zhang Yuan's mind turned sharply, and he didn't say anything, and said indifferently: "Two of you, please get up!" ”

"Thank you, King of the West River!" This. Ge Erqiu was a little eager, for fear that Luo Mengchao would take advantage. Even if both of them knew in their hearts, even so, it was impossible to get Zhang Yuan's inclination. But it's one thing to be a cousin, and it's another thing not to be a cousin.

Don't be afraid to be too attentive. I'm afraid that the other party will not like you in their hearts.

"I have heard the names of the two sages. Now the two sages have come from afar, and they have missed the welcome from afar, and they have neglected the two sages, so please forgive the two sages! Zhang Yuan's mouth was modest, he still sat firmly on the high platform, and did not get up, this is a matter of status, if the Luo Sect Leader or the White Lotus Sect Leader comes. Zhang Yuan may also stand up to greet him personally, but they are different. If they greet each other, then they will lower their own value, Xihe started by force, and as the lord of Xihe, Zhang Yuan is not allowed to grovel to anyone.

The two of them said with sincere fear: "Don't dare! ”

Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded, and then asked knowingly, "I don't know why the two of you came?" But if I can help Xihe, I will not hesitate! ”

Looking at Zhang Yuan's young and resolute face, thinking that Zhang Yuan was a stranger, the two of them were in a trance for a while, and the contempt that quietly bred disappeared.

"Shenhan came here this time, entrusted by the sect leader, hoping to form an alliance with the White Lotus Sect of the King of the West River!" Jiang is still old and spicy, Ge Erqiu came to his senses as soon as possible and spoke first.

Luo Mengchao's reaction was a beat slower, but his eyes rolled, and he said with a high-sounding voice, and his voice burst into tears: "The foreign minister has heard the prestige of the King of Xihe for a long time, and he is willing to follow the King of Xihe to exterminate the foreign races and return my Han mountains and rivers!" ”

Neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp! Zhang Yuan was secretly vigilant in his heart, and said quietly: "Yesterday, I said that to form an alliance with Xihe, you need strength, strength, and price!" The power and strength of the two sages are equal to that of Xihe, and if they can form an alliance, I will naturally be happy. I don't know what you two want from my West River? ”

Luo Mengchao was overjoyed, and said: "Luo Jiao is willing to worship Xihe as a brother and be filial every year!" ”

Zhang Yuan's pupils shrunk, a little surprised, but for a while, he couldn't see whether Luo Mengchao was shallow or deep, and he actually showed his hole cards directly, and it was so exaggerated, that is, Zhang Yuan never thought of getting such a big 'benefit' from the other party.

Yes, benefits.

Not to mention filial piety every year, Zhang Yuan may not be able to see the other party's price, and unless Zhang Yuan wants to tear his face with the other party, he can't take advantage of it for nothing.

The real benefit is that he is a brother, which seems to be a false name and a matter of face. But whoever just looks at it this way is wrong, which means that Xihe can meddle in the affairs of the Luo Sect and justifiably instruct the other party to do things for himself. At the same time, they were able to monitor the other party not to go to West Hanoi to proselytize.

And in order to curry favor with Xihe, it is not good for the other party not to cooperate with Xihe, so the benefits are self-evident.

Even if the price paid for this Xihe is very large, but thinking of the great improvement of his internal security in the future, Zhang Yuan was also moved, and almost agreed.

Fortunately, in the end, Zhang Yuan kept his senses and set his eyes on Ge Erqiu, after Ge Erqiu heard Luo Mengchao's words, his face changed several times, and he had already greeted the eighteen generations of Luo Mengchao's ancestors in his heart.

Luo Mengchao's words can make him a big pit, so that he can't retreat now, nor can he advance.

And seeing Zhang Yuan's inquiring gaze, he was even more miserable, and wanted to speak, the permission given by the sect leader and the benefits promised could not be compared. Don't open your mouth, obviously pushing Zhang Yuan to Luojiao, this is not what Ge Erqiu wants to see.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan thought about it, and knew that it was time to add a fire, and turned his head to Luo Mengchao and said: "I understand the friendship of the Luo Sect, since the deputy sect leader is so bold, then I Xihe can't let others look down on me, if the Luo Sect is willing, I can give Luo Jiao a piece of territory captured in the Yuan Dynasty, and I can still use the banner of Xihe, and I Xihe will still help you resist the attack of the Yuan army!" ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan stopped, Luo Mengchao looked surprised, true and false, it was really Zhang Yuan who did this, for himself, it was a lot of benefits, because he was responsible for the missionary of Luo in the Yuan Dynasty. The fake thing is that he directly took out the hole cards before, but it was a bold pit for the White Lotus Sect, the benefit is not that he came out anyway, what about Baixi River as a brother, he naturally does not feel distressed.

Zhang Yuan couldn't see what was going on in his heart, and continued to speak: "I can promise the Luo Sect the right to trade freely in Xihe, but I am not allowed to preach. Of course, in order to compensate you, Luo Jiao can obtain war horses, weapons trading, and only need to report, and can also open an armory room anywhere in the West River, and feed war horses. Of course, there is a tax to pay, I don't think you will care! ”

"No, I don't care about ......!"

Luo Mengchao only felt that his heartbeat was about to stop, which would make him really surprised by Zhang Yuan's generosity and means. Whether it is the Luo Sect or the White Lotus Sect, in any force is a street rat that everyone shouts and beats, Zhang Yuan's acceptance like this simply hits their hearts.

Who wants to hide in the dark and make a living, who doesn't want to live an upright life, and there is no need to be afraid because of their identity. Moreover, the upper echelons of the Luo Sect did not lack money, but they did not dare to use it, for fear of being noticed by other forces or people who were red-eyed, and then find out their identities and die without a place to bury.

Regarding Luo Mengchao's prospects, Zhang Yuan knew very well, and while smiling secretly, he also lamented the inhuman life of those cult leaders.

From the perspective of Luojiao, Zhang Yuan's benefits are naturally amazing, but from the perspective of Xihe, it is just mutual benefit and reciprocity.

However, they do not dare to spend lavishly on weekdays, and if they have money, they can only continue to invest in the 'work' of mission, and their wealth will increase like a snowball, until one day they are hung up by others, and then they are cheaper for others, but they cannot enjoy the benefits of wealth.

Therefore, for Zhang Yuan, their arrival is no less than a large wave of local tyrants, which is very effective for the economic development of Xihe.

Of course, this wave of local tyrants is very cautious, and it will take quite a while to get a lot of wealth. And if Xihe itself is unstable, this wave of local tyrants is likely to turn into white-eyed wolves, after all, they themselves started as rebels.

After all, there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world, and you may choke to death by drinking saliva, let alone this?

Saying that, Zhang Yuan glanced at Shen Han, and the skin of Shen Han's mouth began to move, Zhang Yuan's promise was exactly what the White Lotus Sect wanted, others didn't know, at least he wanted a dignified life, and he didn't have to worry and be afraid all the time.

Only when you lose it do you know how to cherish it, and the life that ordinary people have, for them, it is out of reach.

And it's nothing if there is no time, but there is an opportunity in front of me, this kind of cat's paw-like feeling is not something that anyone can bear.

'If you are a missionary leader, you can endure this, so let me tell you about it, and see how long you can endure it!' Zhang Yuan smiled secretly in his heart, and continued to promise: "If we can trust each other, I won't mind training a group of soldiers for you as your personal guards, or trading a batch of divine weapons made of Xuan Tie, and armor is not impossible!" ”

Ge Erqiu couldn't stand Zhang Yuan's money offensive anymore, this was completely Chi Guoguo's use of money to smash people.

Of course, Zhang Yuan's last article, for them, the benefits are not necessary, but this gives them an excuse to explain above. Therefore, Ge Erqiu couldn't bear it decisively, and completely bowed to Zhang Yuan's 'Wang Bazhiqi', and said: "Shenhan is also willing to persuade the sect leader to worship Xihe as a brother!" Filial piety every year! (To be continued......)
