Bringing the farm to another world

When Zuo Qiuwen heard what Zuo Qiuzheng said, he was stunned, and then he said: "How do you want to solve it?"

Zuo Qiuzheng said in a deep voice: "It is hard to say how many supplies we have on Zhan Yuanxing that can be used by us now, but the people on Zhan Yuanxing are definitely not easy to deal with. We can only send some masters to Zhan Yuanxing to deal with its people, and there are definitely a lot of people on Zhan Yuanxing. This time, Zhan Yuanxing has mobilized more than 4,000 masters to deal with us. Although we have more masters, if all our masters are sent over, we can definitely deal with the people on Zhan Yuanxing, but our losses will not be small. It is really unnecessary for a planet. So I wonder if we can deal with the affairs of Zhan Yuanxing in another way." When Zuo Qiuzheng said this, his expression was very serious.

Zuoqiu Wen looked at Zuoqiu Zheng and said, "Go on." Zuoqiu Wen was actually very interested in Zuoqiu Zheng's proposal, so he wanted to hear what Zuoqiu Zheng had to say. After Zuoqiu Zheng heard what Zuoqiu Wen said, he was also shocked. Then he said, "Yes, Father, this is what I think. Can we negotiate with the people of Zhan Yuanxing again?"

Zuoqiu Wen was stunned, then looked at Zuoqiu Zheng and said: "Didn't we negotiate with them before? But we never came to an agreement? Why do you want to negotiate with them again?" Zuoqiu Wen did not expect that what Zuoqiu Zheng was talking about was still about negotiations.

Zuo Qiuzheng said in a deep voice: "It's different now than before. Before, we just came into contact with the people of Zhan Yuanxing, and Zhan Yuanxing didn't know us, so they were unwilling to talk to us, and the people we sent at that time were not suitable for negotiation. Now the people of Zhan Yuanxing have fought with our people for such a long time, and they also understand our strength. At this time, they should be very happy to negotiate with us, right? So I wonder if we can start negotiating with the people of Zhan Yuanxing again."

Zuo Qiuwen said in a deep voice: "Is that all? The people of Zhan Yuanxing are winning big games one after another. If we negotiate with them at this time, will they think that we are afraid of them and ask for an exorbitant price?"

Zuo Qiuzheng said, "Father, although the people of Zhan Yuanxing won a great victory this time, we still have a base in Zhan Yuanxing, so we are not completely at a disadvantage. And I'm thinking that the reason why they haven't dealt with our base now is nothing more than two reasons. First, they really don't have the ability to deal with our base. If they can't take our base, they can only surround it and attack the reinforcements. At the same time, they are equivalent to trapping the people in our base there, so that it will be more advantageous for them to negotiate with us in the future. Second, they have the ability to break through our base, but they didn't do it. They are deliberately surrounding it and attacking the reinforcements, and they do this just to negotiate with us. They attack the reinforcements to let us know their strength, and they surrounded the base but didn't break it, just to make us think that the people in the base are safe, and when we negotiate, they will directly break through the base and capture the people in the base directly, so that the people in the base will become their hostages. No matter what the reason is, the people in the base can't come back now, which gives them the bargaining chip to negotiate with us."

At this point, Zuo Qiuzheng paused for a moment, then said, "Now that they have bargaining chips, they will of course negotiate with us. So I say that it is actually the best option for us to negotiate with them now and see what they want."

Zuo Qiuwen thought about what Zuo Qiuzheng said, and then said, "Okay, I understand. Is there anything else?"

Zuoqiu Zheng shook his head and said, "No more." Zuoqiu Wen waved his hand and said, "Then you go back first." Zuoqiu Zheng responded, then he bowed to Zuoqiu Wen, turned around and left Zuoqiu Wen's study. He knew that Zuoqiu Wen had heard his words, but even if he really wanted to negotiate, it would not be at this time. People from those big families would not agree.

After Zuoqiu Zheng left, Zuoqiu Wen couldn't help but smile. He could tell from Zuoqiu Zheng's words that Zuoqiu Zheng did have his own ideas about Zhan Yuanxing's affairs. This was very good. He liked Zuoqiu Zheng thinking in this way. Zuoqiu Zheng would be the emperor in the future, and an emperor could not listen to too many words of others. He had to have his own thoughts. Zuoqiu Zheng did a good job this time. At least he had his own ideas, although in Zuoqiu Wen's opinion, these ideas were still immature.

After Zuoqiu Zheng returned to the East Palace from the imperial palace, he wrote directly to Li Daji, asking Li Daji not to go to the battle for the time being. If anyone asked, he could say that he was looking for other solutions. Moreover, Li Daji was almost semi-independent at the front line, and he could ignore Kuang Yufei's orders. So if he didn't want to go to the battle, no one dared to force him. Zuoqiu Zheng then gave Li Daji the order.

After Zuoqiu Zheng left, Zuoqiu Wen also called several trusted ministers to his study to discuss matters. As soon as those people arrived in Zuoqiu Wen's study, Zuoqiu Wen asked them to sit down. After they sat down, Zuoqiu Wen said directly: "The prince came to me today. He said that we should restart negotiations with Zhan Yuanxing. What do you think?" Zuoqiu Wen looked at them after he finished speaking.

When the ministers heard what Zuo Qiuwen said, they were all stunned, and then their faces changed slightly. One of the ministers said, "Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate. We just suffered a loss at the hands of Zhan Yuanxing. If we go to negotiate with the people of Zhan Yuanxing at this time, they will definitely ask for a higher price. And how can we, the great Star Empire, negotiate with a planet? I think it's inappropriate. We should attack with all our strength and defeat the people on the planet and completely subdue them. In this way, people on other planets will not dare to make trouble with us. Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate to negotiate now. Even if we want to negotiate, we have to wait until we have the upper hand and scare them before we talk to them. Only in this way can we take the initiative in the negotiation."

The other people all nodded. Zuoqiu Wen also nodded and said, "That makes sense, but you also know that the resistance on Zhan Yuanxing is very fierce. If we keep fighting them like this, our losses will not be small. The prince proposed this method today. His prince's six commanders have another part at the front line. This proves that his troops may not move. At that time, they must take action. In this way, if the losses are great, then I'm afraid that no family will agree to it, right?" The families that Zuoqiu Wen said would not agree actually include the family of this important official. Their family head is very powerful, and their family has also sent people to the front line. If Zuoqiu Zheng's prince's six commanders If the prince does not move, and the people of their several major families suffer heavy losses, they will probably not agree and will cause trouble for Zuo Qiuzheng. However, Zuo Qiuwen has now spoken directly, telling them clearly that the prince wants to negotiate and you disagree. If the people sent by the prince do not fight and your people fight, you cannot blame the prince for any losses. You should also not say that the prince only sent people but did not fight. If you do that, it would be too unreasonable, because the prince does not want to attack, and you cannot say that if you want to attack, you have to drag the prince to attack together. It is not okay. It can be said that Zuo Qiuwen directly paved the way for Zuo Qiuzheng.

Zuoqiu Wen has been the emperor of the Star Empire for some years, and he still has some political skills. When Zuoqiu Zheng found him and said he wanted to talk to people from Zhan Yuanxing, he already knew what Zuoqiu Zheng meant, so he deliberately called these important officials over and told them about this matter. His purpose was to pave the way for Zuoqiu Zheng. Once something went wrong, these big families could not blame Zuoqiu Zheng. It can be said that Zuoqiu Wen really cared a lot about Zuoqiu Zheng, and was really training him wholeheartedly to be his successor.

The ministers were also experienced people. When they heard Zuo Qiuwen say this, they immediately understood what Zuo Qiuwen meant. They looked at each other, and then one of them said, "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then if we really defeat the people of Zhan Yuanxing, who should we send to preside over the negotiations?" This seems to be a good thing to say, but in fact it is asking Zuo Qiuwen, if we defeat the enemy and negotiate in the end, can we not let the prince take the lead? This also means that if they defeat the people of Zhan Yuanxing, when it comes to the final negotiations, the prince can't expect to get any benefits.

Zuoqiu Wen glanced at a few people and then said, "If the time really comes for negotiations, you have to discuss who will preside over the negotiations." Zuoqiu Wen's words were tantamount to telling them explicitly that if you really have defeated Zhan Yuanxing, and the time really comes for negotiations, you can discuss and nominate someone to preside over the negotiations. In other words, Zuoqiu Wen also agreed. If it really comes to that, Zuoqiu Zheng will not share Zhan Yuanxing's interests. His words made the hearts of several ministers relax.

  Several people then all bowed to Zuoqiu Wen and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. We will take our leave now." Zuoqiu Wen nodded, and then the people from the major families bowed to Zuoqiu Wen and left his room. Zuoqiu Wen looked at their backs with complicated feelings. He knew very well that these people from the major families had already posed a threat to the imperial power. If it was really the heyday of the imperial power, how would they dare to negotiate with him like this? Unfortunately, he had no way to change this situation because the power of the major families had already been cultivated. He wanted to attack the big families, but the empire would be in turmoil if he made too much noise. Once such a thing happened, it might give the other six realms a chance. Don't think that the other six realms don't have any ideas about them. If there is a chance, the people in the other six realms will definitely eat them alive. It is precisely because of this that he can't attack the big families, because he knows very well that it will not benefit them at all if he attacks the big families now, so he can only endure it. However, he has also begun to suppress the strength of the big families and prevent them from expanding. (End of this chapter)
