Chapter 720 Exchange
The envoy of Da Chu had never seen these delicacies in Da Chu, so he didn't care about it at the moment. He picked up the meat skewers and gnawed one after another, and soon the bamboo sticks piled up into a hill.

Yun Yiyi couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

Fortunately, she has the foresight, otherwise, according to the way the envoy of Chu eats it, it may be gone as soon as it is served.

"Second prince, the meat skewers from Da Zhou are really delicious." The envoy of Da Chu picked his teeth, feeling that the trip was really worth it.

The second prince of the Great Chu Kingdom took a sip of milk tea after hearing the words, "I can barely drink it."

The envoy of Great Chu caught a glimpse of the bamboo sticks on the second prince's table, and couldn't help but feel ashamed. My second prince, if you put down the meat skewer on your right hand, maybe your words still have credibility.

When the stomach was not so hungry, the second prince talked about the business, and wanted to make things difficult: "Since Da Zhou is going to exchange potatoes with Da Chu for horses, His Highness has already tasted the taste of these potatoes, but I don't know what the potatoes are like." kind of value?"

In other words, what good is delicious food if it has no value?

The ministers were making noise, the second prince of Da Chu was too clueless.

Originally, they came to Dazhou for an exchange, and everyone traded on an equal footing. As a defeated country, who should show this superior appearance?
Even the emperor, who has always been quiet, frowned slightly, but as the head of a country, how could he lower his status and argue with the prince of a foreign country?

Therefore, the emperor cast his eyes on Yun Yiyi: "The second prince doesn't know, this potato was planted by Mrs. Yan, how about letting her tell you what value it is?"

The potatoes were grown by Yun Yiyi, so she must know better than others.

The second prince was a little shocked when he heard that it was planted by a woman.

Before he could say anything, he heard a light female voice flowing slowly like running water: "Let me let this concubine come to explain the second prince's doubts. If you want to say that potatoes have a lot of nutritional value, they can nourish the stomach and nourish the stomach." , invigorate the spleen and dampness, and can also promote digestion..."

The second prince followed the voice, but saw a woman on the right standing up neither humble nor overbearing.

She has a beautiful face and a slender figure. Even in front of so many ministers, she has never had stage fright.

Seeing him looking over, Yun Yiyi glanced at him indifferently: "Does the Second Prince understand?"

The second prince looked at her and went, but he didn't hear what Qing Yun Yiyi said, he smiled frivolously: "Madam Yan is so beautiful, I don't know how graceful she is when planting potatoes, can I let His Highness see it? "

Yun Yiyi frowned slightly.

Yan Qinghe's face darkened, and he said displeasedly: "If the second prince is here to discuss business with Da Zhou, Da Zhou will naturally accompany him. If the second prince is here to indulge in beauty, please go home."

It was extremely rude to say this.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, and it was rare to see Yan Qinghe so angry that he became a beauty.

The second prince accepted his coveted intentions. After all, he came here to discuss business, so naturally he couldn't ruin the relationship between the two countries because of this incident.

No matter how good the beauty is, he doesn't want to delay his work for picking flowers.

"Master Yan, why should you be angry? My Highness is just joking. Naturally, I came to Dazhou this time to exchange horses with Dazhou. Madam Yan is very detailed now." The second prince said with a sneer.

Yan Qinghe put down the milk tea, and said in a cold voice, "Exchanges are naturally possible, but the horses you give us must be more than doubled."

The second prince laughed back angrily: "Such a big face, do you want me to give you ten times?"

"It's so good." Yan Qinghe's tone remained flat.

His words were like a stone thrown into the water, stirring up layers of waves.

"It's so deceiving. It seems that your Da Zhou is not sincere in exchanging with our Da Chu. Our Da Chu's horses are so good and good at fighting. It is wishful thinking to swallow up twice as many horses with just a little food!" The second prince threw his cup and died. Get up and say angrily.

Obviously, the price had already been negotiated when they came to the book before, but now they want to double Dachu, not bullying.

There was also a flash of disapproval in Zuo Xiang's eyes, but the emperor had already handed over all the negotiations to Yan Qinghe, so it was naturally inconvenient for him to talk too much.

The emperor was very interested and wanted to see what Yan Qinghe had to say.

What could Yan Qinghe do? He just put down the wine cup lightly, his expression unchanged, as if the second prince was just throwing a tantrum like a child.

"The second prince's words are wrong. Dazhou's potatoes, even if they are put in other countries, are scrambling for food. How many people in this country are saved from famine because of these potatoes. I believe the second prince is obvious to all. Since the second prince came to exchange As for the food, I naturally understand the importance of this food." After a pause, he continued, "Since the second prince is not satisfied with Yan's conditions, then that's all. Such a surplus stockpile in the Zhou Kingdom."

The second prince naturally knew this truth, and the reason why Da Chu chose to exchange with Da Zhou was also because of this.

What Da Chu lacked was not a little bit of food, but a lot.

The only country that can produce so much food is Dazhou.

but.

Yan Qinghe was really deceiving people too much, he didn't want to exchange them so casually.

The second prince sneered and said, "If Da Zhou is willing to show his potato planting technology, Da Chu can produce twice as many horses."

Okay, don't you want Da Chu to double the horses?

Then you, Da Zhou, will pass on the planting techniques to Da Chu.

Yan Qinghe objected without even thinking about it: "Potato planting technology is related to people's livelihood, let alone double the number of horses, even if it is ten times the number of horses, it is absolutely impossible for Da Zhou to come up with it."

The second prince knew this kind of secret a long time ago, and he would never tell other countries. He said this just because he wanted to disgust Yan Qinghe.

The envoy of Da Chu approached the second prince and offered advice: "Your Highness, why don't we compete with the people of Da Zhou, if they lose then..."

The second prince had a flash of inspiration and praised: "This idea is good."

The envoy of Great Chu chuckled, and just patronizing to eat, he just thought of this.

The second prince looked around. If he competed with these ministers, his winning rate would be too low, so he might as well choose one of the female relatives.

Who do you choose?

The second prince looked critically at the seat of female relatives, and soon his eyes fell on Yun Yiyi, so what kind of Madam Yan is this?

A woman of the generation who is still engaged in planting, I think I know I haven't read any books.

"Lord Yan, it's not impossible to ask us Dachu to produce twice as many horses." The second prince paused.

Yan Qinghe looked at him lightly: "Oh?"

The second prince sneered and said: "As long as you Da Zhou, Madam Yan, wins the competition with His Highness, then you can double the horses."

Countless eyes fell on Yun Yiyi.

She took a sip of milk tea to suppress her shock.

This is serious business, how can it be related to her.

Yan Qinghe frowned, and did not refuse first: "What is the competition?"

"It's easy to say. I heard that the people of Da Zhou are proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. My Highness is not talented. I invite Mrs. Yan to compete in chess." The second prince chuckled.

Yan Qinghe didn't agree directly, but looked at Yun Yiyi and asked Yun Yiyi with his eyes.

Yun Yiyi naturally knew how important this matter was. If she could win the opponent, it would not only win twice as many horses for Da Zhou, but more importantly, win glory for the country.

But on the contrary, if she loses, she will be ridiculed by everyone.

They would blame her for not being able to win over each other.

The malice of the world is always so direct.

They don't care what your identity is and whether it's necessary.

They only focus on the outcome, and if the outcome is good, then everyone is happy.

If the result is not good, then it will be ruined.

Yun Yiyi knew how difficult it was, so she thought for a while: "It's not impossible to play chess with the concubine, but the concubine is not good at chess, if you follow the method of Go, it is no different from surrendering, even if the second prince wins It’s not good, so why don’t we compete in a different way.”

"Madam Yan, please tell me." The second prince pretended to be generous.

Yun Yiyi called someone to bring the chessboard and other things.

She made a gesture of invitation, and after the second prince was seated, she began to pick up the chess pieces to lay out.

While laying out the layout, Yun Yiyi explained to the second prince: "This is backgammon. The black chess is mainly attacking, while the white chess is mainly defensive. The first five chess pieces to form a line is the winner..."

The second prince looked at it: "His Royal Highness knows, let's start."

"Your Highness is playing this game for the first time, please go first." Yun Yiyi said.

The second prince's face sank: "Are you looking down on my Highness?"

Yun Yiyi sighed: "Heizi has the advantage to go first, if that's the case, thank Your Highness for your humility."

The second prince said: "It's not like my Highness can't even win against a woman, please go ahead."

Yun Yiyi didn't give in anymore, she took the black chess first and dropped it, followed by the second prince.

Playing two chess pieces in a row, the second prince blocked Yun Yiyi's black chess piece and said with a sneer, "Madam Yan, you are about to lose."

Yun Yiyi smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Your Highness, take a look again?"

The second prince's eyes turned to the chess game, and his face darkened instantly.

The place where Yun Yiyi landed had already become a diagonal line before he knew it, it's a pity that he didn't notice it.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your humility." Yun Yiyi saluted with cupped fists.

Seeing that Yun Yiyi was about to return to his seat, the second prince hurriedly shouted: "Wait, two wins out of three!"

Yun Yiyi tilted her head, and said flatly: "Your Highness didn't say two out of three rounds."

"Then I didn't say that one game will determine the outcome."

The second prince rolled his eyes and showed a rogue smile.

"Your Highness, this is cheating." Yun Yiyi was a little unhappy.

The second prince has no pressure, he is cheating, so what can he do, can he beat him up?
"If you don't dare, then Da Zhou can exchange potatoes at a par price." The second prince sneered, curling his lips.

Yun Yiyi took a deep look: "If I win the remaining two rounds, Your Highness, would you dare to exchange twice as many horses?"

"Why don't you dare? If His Highness wins, you Da Zhou will need three times as much potatoes to exchange with my Da Chu."

Upon hearing this, the ministers of the Great Zhou quit and clamored that the Great Chu could not afford to lose, and the Great Chu said that the Great Zhou could not afford to play.

Yun Yiyi looked at the emperor: "I dare to ask Your Majesty, do you believe me?"
