Chapter 526 The Most Distant Friendship

Pimos Khan looked at the secret letter in his hand and thought for a long time. Finally, he took a deep breath and stood up slowly like an inflated balloon.

Although he may rule the worst piece of land in the whole Yangyue, and is a "barbarian" who is only worthy of hiding in the land outside the civilized world in the eyes of outsiders.

But those who do not plan for eternity are not qualified to plan for the moment; those who do not plan for the overall situation are not qualified to plan for a region.

Since even the caves in northern Shaanxi can hang a picture of the USS Lexington aircraft carrier.

It is reasonable that he is located in the corner of the world but has an extremely detailed world map.

Standing in front of this treasure with several magical protections, he stretched out his hand and stroked a large area of ​​land with his fingertips, from the northern border of Yangyue across thousands of mountains and rivers, all the way to the distant south.

As a ruler who built a new country with unity and identity, Khan actually longed for an ally who could rely on and trust.

There was no other reason. Although the two sides seemed to be giving and taking, only the patient knew how bitter Coptis chinensis was.

This tug-of-war was too long. The young Beimos was still lacking in experience and was about to collapse.

Even though the thief Shenlin had set up many licensed "privateers" near the west coast, Lingxi, who was full of anger, was quite biased towards the grassland in trade.

But there was a limit to favoritism. The Golden King was not a "good man". He was willing to give up some of his interests, which was already generous enough to feed the eagle. It was impossible to do a loss-making business.

So even if the Khan tried his best to search for all kinds of valuable things and only bought those important commodities that could not be replaced and had to be obtained...

It was really difficult to relieve the coldness of the three feet of ice with just these small businesses that could only be done a few times a year.

As for the candidate for this ally...

As orcs, grassland civilization, and "foreign barbarians", the first person the Khan considered was naturally the wolf king He Chi Na in the far south.

But when the wolf king wielded the butcher knife and tried to establish his own kingdom with terror, he kicked He Chi Na out of the list.

There was no way. The butcher knife could not tolerate two kingdoms, let alone two kings. Beimos had suffered enough, and there was no need to ally with future enemies.

Then there was the Kingdom of Glow, which had the same enemy as him...

To be honest, the frequency of the big lion scolding these glow insects might be higher than the frequency of scolding the executioner of the deep forest.

After all, no matter how bad the people of the deep forest are, they are still bad at most. Not only are their behavior logic normal, but their decision-making is definitely forward-looking.

On the other hand, the glow is just a piece of iron waste that has no reaction when being cut by a blunt knife. It is really worse than a wild dog on the roadside.

As for the Lingxi people...

Although they came here on their own initiative, and they were very enthusiastic about the grassland and were very diligent in doing business.

But the big lion really felt that this group of profiteers was unreliable, so he only maintained trade exchanges and did not go any further.

However, he maintained a good personal relationship with the Golden King, ensuring that the top leaders of the two countries could communicate smoothly and avoid misunderstandings as much as possible.

Okay, that's good.

All the forces on Yangyue Star that could come to the fore had been checked. They were either iron waste or untrustworthy. Now, Peimos had no choice.

But now, at this moment when the Peimos Khanate could be declared to have entered a slow death, the Tower Community appeared.

In fact, in Khan's previous cognition, the Barbarian Plain was already considered the Wolf King's sphere of influence.

After all, this is always a piece of meat. With He Chi's temper, it is impossible not to eat it right at his mouth.

As a result, a group of pioneers who appeared out of nowhere quickly occupied the entire forest, united local tribes of all sizes, and formed a multi-force joint organization called "Tower", and even stepped onto the land of glory before the Wolf King - in a civilized way.

"Civilized..."

It can only be said that the Golden King and Khan have a really good personal relationship, or that a great leader will pay respect even to his enemies, let alone those with vested interests?

So there are some things in this batch of goods that the Golden King gave him in his personal name, including a Winchester M1887 from the Savage Plain.

No magic, no talent, anyone, even a big rooster, can kill a professional with it as long as he can pull the trigger.

Even if it can only kill a low-level professional, it won't even leave a mark on a high-level professional like him.

But there is almost no threshold, and the "mass production" attribute that can be called against the sky is enough to cover up all shortcomings.

Think about it, if you can have such a weapon, the war at the beginning of the year will definitely not end in a lose-lose situation.

At least!

He is confident that he can keep the damn third prince, and turn the originally balanced triangle of the Deep Forest Crown Princes into a two-way struggle like water and fire.

Forcing the extremely hypocritical King Lionheart to take charge of things, diverting all the eyes on the north, in exchange for some development opportunities.

But unfortunately, he didn't have it at that time.

So...

The Lionheart walked around the table, and finally sat back in his chair, picking up the pen dipped in ink.

"Now that things have come to this, we must at least give it a try!"

So a few days later, when the Lingxi merchants were still busy comparing prices in the Wild Plains, trying to find ways to sell high and buy low in exchange for more wealth to go home and report to the financial backers behind them,

it was still the White Eagle Port, and a small fleet flying the Lingxi royal flag arrived here amid the expectations of the people on the shore.

Although in the light sea mist, a person wearing a luxurious tight dress can be seen standing on the deck from a distance, and he seems to be eager to get off the ship.

But the strange thing is that the person seems to be in a hurry, but in fact he doesn't seem to be that anxious.

Because he waited for the port workers to connect the gangway and let the entourage clear the way first, then he slowly walked down the ship and shook hands with the community official who was responsible for receiving him.

"Hello! My respected friend from the High Tower Community, I am an envoy from the Kingdom of Lingxi. I have come here after traveling thousands of miles with the warmest greetings and the most sincere respect from our King."

The envoy's voice fluctuated very exaggeratedly when he spoke, and the phenomenon of dragging the sound was also very serious, but this was definitely not his deliberate prank.

Because including the somewhat funny outfit on him, this is actually the oldest ceremonial regulation of the Holy Tree Kingdom, and it is the highest level of specification.

If it were placed on Earth, it would be equivalent to a hand-made original Zhou Li in the Tang Dynasty, with full cards.

That's right, this is a serious diplomatic occasion, which means that the Lingxi Kingdom has made up its mind to formally establish diplomatic relations with the Tower Community. So the envoy's early appearance means that Lingxi attaches great importance to the Tower.

And the fact that they went through the entire process before getting off the ship means that Lingxi still maintains its reserve and that it is an equal diplomatic relationship.

However, no matter how many twists and turns there are, to put it bluntly, it is just a set of useless and decent words.

"Our kingdom is eager to share wisdom with you, exchange magic, and explore the unknown mysteries of this planet together."

"Yes, our Tower Community also looks forward to having a trustworthy friend, and hopes that our cooperation can bring prosperity to each other!"

Everyone is an old hand, and you say something, and I say something, and immediately put on a posture that can be written in the press release "The representatives of both sides had a good conversation and reached a lot of consensus."

But when they were busy competing with each other in acting, leaving the port in a happy atmosphere and preparing to move to the banquet hall.

In a corner where no one noticed, one of the envoys quietly left the team and walked to a corner of the port skillfully.

Since the envoys who came here represent the Golden King, the Lingxi merchants naturally have to send enough representatives to welcome the angel.

According to the previous order, this representative is none other than the professor of the Flight Department of the Lingxi Kingdom Magic Academy, the Lord of the Kingdom, the great adventurer, and the old friend of the Tower Community - His Excellency James Saint Crystal.

As the man who knows the most about the pioneers in the Lingxi Kingdom, James has now changed into an earth-style outfit.

In short, it is a black suit, paired with a pair of sharp sunglasses, and the white hair is neatly combed to the back of the head.

Don't say it, the old guy standing here carelessly, really has a Hollywood-style feeling.

But since the king's order has come, he still hurriedly saluted in front of the spy.

"Thank you for your hard work, does His Majesty have any instructions for me?"

"Yes, under His Majesty's recommendation, the Khan of Peimos has the intention to establish diplomatic relations with the High Tower Community, and has begun to select suitable envoys."

"But in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings, before that, you still need to introduce it to the High Tower Community."

? ? ?

James immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard this. After all, it was called a recommendation, which actually meant that he was asked to use Lingxi's credit to endorse Peimos.

This made him a little confused. You must understand that diplomacy is no small matter. If something goes wrong with this thing... it will take a big risk!

Just based on personal relationships, His Majesty is willing to do this?

Uh uh, that lion Khan could not be a succubus, or he could transform into a girl at night...

Maybe he knew that such an order was really strange, so in addition to the oral order, the Golden King also wrote two letters.

One was left for the people of the High Tower to read, and the other was for him to read now.

James opened the letter to himself with a serious face and read it twice, then burned it to ashes in front of the spy.

"I understand, I will definitely live up to the king's order and resolutely carry out the mission to the end!"

Since then, James always inadvertently talked about some issues about Lingxi trade when chatting with senior members of the Tower Community, especially members of the parliament who have the right to speak, in various social occasions.

"People in our Lingxi Kingdom just like to do business, and our trading partners are all over the world. Haha, the most important and the best relationship among them must be you, but apart from that, the second place is actually a place called the Pemos Khanate. They..."

"Ah, brother, you don't know Pemos? Well, it's okay. Speaking of Pemos, they are actually some miserable people. It is located in the northernmost part of our Yangyue Star. It is originally cold and frozen, and it borders the Deep Forest People..."

"Yes, yes, yes, always fighting! There is no way, the Deep Forest People know everything, they are really born Bandits, years of war, all the orcs of the Pemos Khanate have become miserable. "

"However, their Khan is indeed a good man, and the orcs are also of good character, and they are quite united internally, much better than the group in the wilderness. In addition, our Majesty is a good man, so we have been trying to support them. "

"But the people of the Deep Forest are so hateful and vicious, so our family alone is not enough. I heard that the Khan is now looking for reliable allies to fight against the evil Deep Forest people with them, but in my opinion, this matter is uncertain!"

"With the current situation, it's not easy for everyone. Who dares to go against the people from the deep forest? Hey..."

Although his specific words and wording are very different, in the end they will definitely progress step by step until he leads to the hint of "there is a beautiful woman in the north".

Finally, while talking to a congressman who claimed to be from the Foreign Affairs Bureau, the other party asked him what he had been waiting for.

"I personally think that as long as they are good people, they are worth uniting with. I wonder if Mr. James... is there any way?"

Coming!

But since it is a diplomatic occasion, even if you come, you have to wait for a while.

So James didn't show any expression on his face, but he made a move and started doing Tai Chi in a leisurely manner.

Of course, this is a pleasant way of saying it. To put it worse, it is sticky and ambiguous.

Just like a woman who dares to drink alone in a bar, you will never be sure of the outcome until the last moment, and your rank will be unattainable.

So why does James, an old mage, understand this so well, and what happened to him when he was young?

MP: "Not a good thing!"

James's manipulation made his scalp numb. It wasn't that he was afraid. He was a diplomat and would not be afraid of such cleverness.

But I was speechless, speechless that I actually had to work so hard to bring the topic back, so that I could get the "way" out of James' mouth.

As for this route, it is a detour around Lingxi, using their waterways and ships to complete the transmission of messages from the extreme north to the extreme south.

Although it can take up to half a month to go back and forth, it is still better than groping along the deep forest coastline by yourself.

"Okay, I do have the intention to communicate, but our tower is a community, and I can't make decisions for others."

"Understood, I can understand."

Giving James an unclear signal, the official returned to the Foreign Service.

Subsequently, from the Foreign Affairs Bureau to the Tower Council, players and important NPCs who had sneaked into the position of parliamentarians held several closed-door meetings.

Finally, because he was old enough and weak enough, he could only be a pure mascot, so he simply served as the chairman of the board of directors, under the seal of Huang, the mayor of Dog Village.

The Tower Council officially announced that the community decided to send a joint business delegation to conduct a series of diplomatic visits to Tamos while conducting the first direct trade, hoping to promote more consensus.
