Time was quietly half a month, and in the newspapers in the Tianshui Empire, such news was published:

For the sake of the general public, the Tianshui Empire and the Minghui Empire temporarily ceased war, and introduced the 'Crossing Erjindan' from the Minghui Empire to serve the people, and the two sides reached a specific agreement as follows:

1, the Minghui Empire provides sufficient Erjin Dan to the Tianshui Empire, and ensures that the quality is consistent, and the quality is supervised by the Tianshui Empire.

2, the Minghui Empire guarantees that the amount of the Eijin Pill provided is sufficient, and the number of pills on sale in the Tianshui Empire is not less than 40% of the number of pills on sale in the Minghui Empire.

3. The Minghui Empire guarantees that the landed price of the Erjin Pill is 82% off the current market price of the Shengsheng and Creation Pill; with the maturity of technology and the decline in the cost of medicinal materials, the price of the Duerjin Pill will continue to fall, and the minimum is 7% off or even lower than the current market price of the Shengsheng and Creation Pill.

4. The Minghui Empire will purchase related medicinal materials at 105% of the market price, especially the 'fruit of the snake vine', at a purchase price of 107%.

What the Tianshui Empire needs to do is:

1. Provide a green channel for the transportation of pills and medicinal materials for the Minghui Empire, and ensure the legality and safety of the transaction.

2. Tax reduction and exemption to ensure that the price of the pill is reasonable.

3. Establish a corresponding department to supervise the market, quality, and price of Erjindan, and supervise the acquisition of medicinal materials by the Minghui Empire.

4. Ensure the safety of the relevant trading personnel of the Minghui Empire, but the corresponding personnel of the Minghui Empire must comply with local laws.

There are a number of other details, which are published in the newspapers.

Since the Blue Star Group developed and grew the existence of newspapers, newspapers have spread rapidly in this starry sky and have become an important means for various empires to control the country.

With the publication of the newspaper, the first batch of Dorkindan has been sold on a few provincial capitals.

When the people of the Tianshui Empire were in an uproar, in the palace of the Tianshui Empire, the Emperor was convening the high-ranking officials of the think tank to discuss this matter. It has been discussed for many days, but there are still some issues that have not been thoroughly discussed, or there are still many questions, so we need to continue to think about it.

Or to be more specific, everyone is an old adversary, and although I don't know what your immediate plan is, I know your core: uneasy kindness!

Don't look at the surface, and the agreements signed say that it is for the past and future friendship of the two countries, and for the sake of common development, but even ordinary people will not believe these official words.

Today, the representatives of the Minghui Empire, Huang Fei and related personnel finally arrived at the imperial capital of the Tianshui Empire, and the Emperor invited Huang Fei and others to come over and 'sit'.

Because Huang Fei and the others came as businessmen and unofficial diplomats, this meeting was not strictly carried out in accordance with diplomatic etiquette, but was more like a private meeting and meeting.

The meeting place was in an imperial garden of the Tianshui Imperial Palace, and the officials around him had changed into civilian clothes, but they were all present.

The emperor came forward to greet him briefly, said that he would leave the matter to the young man, and left himself. The actual presiding over the work at the venue was handed over to the crown prince Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian's mouth was a little poisonous, and when the emperor left, he opened his mouth and asked: "I heard that the eldest princess of your country is choosing horses, I don't know what the 'eldest prince' ranks?"

As soon as Huang Fei heard this, he had only one thought in his heart: I want to kill this bastard!

What is the eldest princess choosing a colt, what is the ranking, what are you hinting at. Of course, there is no problem with the words 'eldest prince', but after connecting the context and looking at the other party's expression, Huang Fei felt that these words were full of mockery:

You are a prince, but you want to ascend to the throne by marrying your cousin?

To be honest, there are too many close relatives within the royal family who are married, but this thing is ...... At least in the current environment, people are still taboo about this.

But before Huang Fei could speak, Xu You spoke: "Does 'Your Highness' want to care about our state affairs?"

You're just a prince, not an emperor yet, what kind of care!

Jiang Tian was a little uncomfortable by Xu You's response, embarrassment flashed on his face, and he laughed after a few heys: "Just ask, ask." Well, in fact, I invited a few people to come over today, on the one hand, to deepen the communication between the two sides, and on the other hand, there are also a few small questions that I would like to ask. ”

Xu You stopped talking, this kind of formal conversation, only Huang Fei is qualified to speak.

Huang Fei was a little arrogant and tapped his chin, "The reason why Du Erjindan was sold this time is also to take into account the relationship between the two countries, and I wish the two countries eternal peace." If Your Highness has any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. ”

If you ask, can you answer...... Look at my mood.

The prince has long been familiar with these simple speech traps. After a moment of thought, he spoke: "First of all, thank you for being able to sell us such an excellent elixir. But this could be done better, for example, through formal diplomatic relations. ”

This time, Xu You spoke again: "Back to Your Highness, we have also made an argument on this matter." Diplomatic aspects are considered protracted and inflexible. Eventually, the cost will rise significantly.

Although the Erjin Pill is good, it is only a god-level elixir, and the valuable diplomatic resources of both sides should be used in more critical places. ”

The prince wanted to ask: Why do you want to sell us such an excellent elixir? Xu You said: It is some elixir that transforms into gods, and you are too careful to be careful, and you are worried about it, but Xu You avoided answering the fundamental question.

The prince was unwilling, but he seemed to know his shortcomings, and the identity of the prince was inconvenient to say, so he turned his head and nodded slightly to the plainclothes officials next to him.

I saw the left minister of the Tianshui Empire step forward, "Xu You, I have a small question. In fact, you can do it in secret, as long as you exchange the pill for the fruit of the Jiao Snake Vine, it is enough, and you can earn more benefits. ”

Xu You smiled faintly: "We did think about it this way at the beginning. But given the friendship between the two countries, we are not ready to do so. No matter how many interests there are, they are not as important as the friendship between the two countries. ”

Next to him, the crown prince of the Tianshui Empire's face darkened: The friendship between the two countries? We recently broke out a ten-year war in the Rolling Tongue Constellation, and the Tianshui Empire has almost retreated hundreds of light years in the Rolling Tongue Constellation, and there have been countless casualties on both sides.

Hundreds of light years, in exchange for those small empires, they have all been destroyed three or four times.

Do you have any misunderstanding of the word 'friendship'?

Although everyone knows that this kind of diplomatic vocabulary is nonsense with open eyes, you always have to make a draft.

Luckily, the draft came as it was said. Xu You continued: "In fact, that kind of small-scale transaction cannot promote the progress of the two countries at all. For the two countries to make real progress, it is necessary to trade on a large scale and establish basic ties at the people-to-people level.

We've always wanted to do that, but we've never found the right entry point. Until there was a crossing Ergindan.

The Crossing Erjin Pill is very good, not only is it necessary for cultivation, but also the fruit of the Jiao Snake Vine in its three main medicines is only produced by the Tianshui Empire. In this way, the Doejindan is a good medium of communication. ”

"Oh, you don't have what you want?" Zuo Xiang continued.

"Yes!" Xu You said very simply, "we want to say that it is impossible to ask for anything else." In fact, all we seek is wealth. If we can sell it on a large scale, the profits will be very considerable, and these profits will be ...... Extremely important!!"

The last four words, Xu You said almost word by word.

Everyone in the Tianshui Empire suddenly 'understood' - this Huang Fei needed money to grab the throne, which required a lot of wealth. Also, this kind of competition is first of all a competition for money, who will mess with you if you don't have money.

Zuo Xiang, the prince and the others glanced at each other, and everyone nodded slowly: This reason should be correct, I just don't know if there is anything deeper, but at least this reason is very credible.

Zuo Xiang continued to ask: "If you have earned, won't our Tianshui Empire have to lose?"

"How could it be!" Xu You's words were powerful and crisp, "After the Tianshui Empire has crossed the Erjin Pill, the overall cultivation is not to go to a higher level. Maybe in 100 years, it will be significantly more than the four countries.

And we sell the pills to your country, and your country can resell the pills to other countries. ”

This time, a real smile finally appeared on the face of Prince Jiang Tian. Also, although I don't know what this Minghui Empire is calculating, it can at least be sure that this matter will also be of great benefit to the Tianshui Empire.

And even if there is a problem, as Xu You said, it is some elixirs of the Transformation Period, how much wind and waves can be set off.

Since the risks are tolerable and the benefits are visible, the atmosphere is naturally at its peak.

............

The discussion here in the Imperial Palace is becoming more and more harmonious, and it is a different situation within the Tianshui Empire.

With the delivery of the first batch of snake vine fruit fruits by the Tianshui Empire, a large number of Erjin pills began to pour into the market of the Tianshui Empire.

The Minghui Empire really did what it said, and after getting a large number of snake vine fruits, in less than a month, the price of Ergindan fell from 82% to 76%, and the price is still gradually decreasing.

Because the Erjin Pill is a bit special, as long as it is dissolved in the spiritual spring, as long as the dilution standard is mastered, even cultivators in the Qi refining period can use it. For a time, the sales of Erjindan were in short supply. The price of direct sales in stores is low, but the resale price is not the same.

With the price reduction of the 'life-saving' elixir, the cultivation system of the entire Tianshui Empire was stimulated.

A large number of Avatar Stage monks began to consolidate their foundations, and this inevitably required more elixirs—not just the Elder Elder Pill. The sales of the rest of the pills began to increase, and the prices also rose slightly. In this kind of competition, the market is gradually leveling off.

But whenever the market is stable, the price of Ergindan will be reduced, so the market that has just stabilized is stimulated again.

While the Ergindan was selling well, other problems arose. First of all, the traditional god-level life-saving pills such as the Shengsheng Creation Pill basically began to be unsalable, and I don't know how many merchants lost money.

However, instead of sympathy, they were accused of being black-hearted businessmen: who made the price of your elixir so high. The problem of inflated prices of pills is well known to the people, but there is no way to do it in the past.

Now seeing that these people are unlucky, you can imagine how the people will react.

Sympathy does not exist. It's good not to fall into the ground.

As a result, these people whose interests were damaged were ignored by the society, and the Tianshui Empire ignored the first warning before the outbreak of the trade war. And every time these people say that Crossing Ergindan is a trap, they will be sprayed with dog blood - you don't see others as good.

This situation lasted for less than a month, and a new situation appeared: the merchants of the Tianshui Empire began to stock up on the fruit of the snake vine and tried to increase the price, but the price of the Erjin Pill was increased by 10% the next day.

For a while, a large number of basic cultivators in the Tianshui Empire were complaining. They did not resent the price increase of Ergindan, but resented the merchants of the Tianshui Empire for taking advantage of the money.

For a period of time, only the price of the Erjin Pill has been reduced, and the price of the rest of the pills has increased in an all-round way! The people have a scale in their hearts, and everyone can see what the situation is.

Faced with the surging grassroots level, the Tianshui Empire had to use an administrative order to suppress the price of medicinal materials. The price of Doe Kindan immediately dropped. The market has stabilized for the time being.

............

"There's a problem!" In the palace of the Tianshui Empire, Zuo Xiang was reporting to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, this is the situation I investigated.

The Minghui Empire increased the purchase price of all medicinal materials by about 5%, but they only bought a little, and said that the profit of Du Erjindan was not high, so it could only be so.

However, this practice has disrupted the market. The pill manufacturers on our side had to increase the purchase price, and the cost of pills increased. However, because of the turbulent public sentiment, the price of the pill did not dare to increase casually. Things are starting to get a little out of hand. ”

The emperor took the report with a solemn face and looked at it little by little.
