An Unreasonable Bargain, A Stalemated Negotiations!
The establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries was neither simple nor complicated.
To put it simply, as long as the two countries had the same intention.
They also reached an agreement on some core issues.
They could establish a certain degree of diplomatic relations.
Of course, this was also because the Great Tang was isolated.
If it was on Earth, the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries would also have to consider the complicated international situation.
And the chain effect brought about by the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
But between the Dragon Kingdom and the Great Tang, this problem did not exist.
As long as the two sides reached an agreement on the core issues, they could formally establish diplomatic relations.
Of course, after the establishment of diplomatic relations, some specific cooperation matters between the two countries needed to be discussed in detail under the general framework.
The matter of establishing diplomatic relations was indeed very complicated.
After all, you still need to reach a consensus on the core issues.
Take this negotiation for example.
In theory, the Dragon Country had an equal attitude of cooperation.
However, both sides were well aware of this.
Equal?
How could they be equal?
There was a huge difference in strength!
The Great Tang needed the support of the Dragon Kingdom on almost all matters.
Thus, the Great Tang side had long since mentally prepared themselves.
They were in a subordinate position, so they had to pay a huge price.
Even so, Su Muyang's offer still shocked them.
.......................................
"Ambassador Su Su, what did you say?"
Zhangsun Wuji stuttered.
Su Muyang said calmly.
"I said that the Dragon Kingdom wants thirty percent of all the mineral resources within the Great Tang's territory!”
"Of course, our Dragon Kingdom will give the Great Tang some support.”
"Help the Great Tang expand its territory and dominate the world!”
"This is impossible!" Zhangsun Wuji denied reflexively.
Then, he calmed down and said in a deep voice.
"Although our Great Tang is vast, ahem, ahem, it's not small.”
"However, the mining of iron and copper is extremely difficult. Even we don't have enough for ourselves.”
"How can it be used in exchange?"
"That's not a problem!" Su Muyang raised three fingers.
"First, our Dragon Country will provide technical support.”
"Within a year, the Great Tang's mining speed will increase by a hundredfold!”
"Secondly, we don't want what you guys mine!”
"As long as you agree to this condition, our Dragon Country will take away these mineral resources.”
He was right, according to the plan provided by the system.
As long as the Great Tang agreed, the system would naturally have a special method.
"Third!" Su Muyang smiled.
"Perhaps Lord Zhangsun doesn't understand what I mean.”
"The mineral resources I'm talking about are not just copper and iron.”
" Oil, Uranium, Iron, Manganese, Buminite, Tin-lead, Ni-lead, Antimony, Gold-lead, Chromium-lead, Copper-lead, Zinc-lead, Cobalt, Platinum Group Elements, Stronghold, Potasium, Boron, Diamond."
"We want 30% of all the mineral resources!”
Hearing him count these items, all the Great Tang soldiers paled.
Although they didn't know what most of the things were.
However, they also knew that the Dragon Country had forcefully emptied 30% of their resources!
The Great Tang wasn't even this ruthless to the Subordinate Countries!
This was called asking for an exorbitant price!
....................................
Zhangsun Wuji took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down.
He forced a smile on his face.
"Ambassador Su's condition is really too harsh.”
"Not to mention me, even His Majesty would not agree.”
Su Muyang leaned back and said calmly.
"Frankly speaking, the Great Tang is far from the Dragon Kingdom.”
"Only these mineral resources are barely useful to the Dragon Country.”
His words were half true and half false.
The mineral resources were indeed urgently needed by the Dragon Country.
But how could such a huge world be so useless?
Putting everything else aside, just the population alone was a huge bonus!
Su Muyang was simply bullying them.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind Zhangsun Wuji.
"Oh? The ambassador's words might not be biased, right?”
Su Muyang looked up and saw that the person who spoke was the Great Tang War God, Li Jing.
Li Jing continued.
"Since the High Ambassador specifically raised this condition, then these mineral resources must be quite important.”
"It must also be what the Dragon Country urgently needs.”
"Although we don't know what these things are used for, we don't know what they are used for.”
"But we will find out sooner or later.”
Su Muyang smiled and said slowly.
"General Li, you're right. The Dragon Country does need these mineral resources.”
"However, you have neglected one point.”
"Since I can come to this world, do you think I will go to other worlds?”
"Our Dragon Country has countless subordinate worlds that can obtain a large amount of resources.”
"The Great Tang is not our only choice!”
As soon as he said this, everyone's expression changed.
Those who came today were all old foxes.
He had originally thought that the Dragon Country urgently needed these minerals and that they could take advantage of them.
However, following Su Muyang's train of thought, f * ck!
If he couldn't get it from this world, what about the other worlds?
Su Muyang laughed when he saw that they were silent.
"You might not know much about our Dragon Country.”
"Our Dragon Country is vast and rich. There are 56 ethnic groups who are as close as one family.”
"The Han people are just one of them."
"Opening and tolerance are our characteristics.”
"We are also sincerely cooperating with the Great Tang.”
"But…"
"Everyone, the Dragon Country is not a saint!"
"The cooperation between the two sides is based on mutual benefit and win-win!”
"Otherwise, our Dragon Country's one-sided efforts will not be rewarded.”
"Then how can this partnership last?”
These words sounded like empty words.
Only the second half was slightly useful.
However, which one of them was not an old fox?
He caught the main point immediately. The first half was what he was trying to express!
There were 56 ethnic groups?
The Han people were just one of them?
In other words, the Dragon Country did not care much about the boundaries between the races?
If the Great Tang did not agree, would the Dragon Kingdom turn around and support another country?
For example, the Turks, Tubo, and Tuyuhun
When he thought of the terrifying weapons the Great Tang army would have to face, he felt as if he was about to die.
Everyone's face was pale.
A threat!
This was a blatant threat!
However, there was no way to resolve this threat!
How could a person resist such a great power?
Su Muyang narrowed his eyes as he swept his gaze across everyone's faces.
He suddenly smiled.
"Everyone, the negotiation of establishing diplomatic relations is not something that can be done in a day or two.”
"Everyone, why don't we discuss it again?”
"Let's talk another day, how about it?"
Zhangsun Wuji calmed down a little and knew that Su Muyang was telling the truth.
How could such a big deal be settled in one go?
Besides, he had to ask Li Shiming first.
He nodded.
"Ambassador Su is right."
"We do need to report this to His Majesty.”
"Please wait for a few days."
Su Muyang nodded and smiled.
"It's fine. I'll take this opportunity to tour Chang 'an.”
"Everyone, please consider it carefully.”
"I'm not in a hurry!"
Su Muyang was not in a hurry. He was really not in a hurry.
What was that saying again?
let the bullet fly for a while
