Yan Ruyu remained expressionless, and said softly, "Jinyan, do you like Yazhou very much?"

Zhou Jinyan turned around and said, "Sister Ruyu, come and take a look with me, I guarantee you will know that Yazhou is really nice, carefree, and lively. I don't think it's any worse than Chang'an."

Yan Ruyu was immediately amused by him, "Are you kidding me? In the whole world, is there any place that is as good as Chang'an?"

Zhou Jinyan said proudly: "That also depends on who is there, where I am, it just doesn't compare."

There are many facilities in Yazhou, not to mention Datang, but there are none in the whole world.

Zhou Jinyan is still very proud of this.

Yan Ruyu ignored it, and was about to speak when she raised her head and saw a Tubo guard walking over.

"They came to look for you." Yan Ruyu smiled lightly.

Zhou Jinyan didn't get up, and the guard walked in quickly.

Then he said in standard Chinese: "Dear Zhou Shaoqing, my Prime Minister invites you to come and have a talk."

"Okay, come on."

Zhou Jinyan nodded. Seeing that the guards did not leave, he shrugged and got up immediately.

"Zhou Shaoqing!"

As soon as Zhou Jinyan and Yan Ruyu entered the courtyard, Lu Dongzan greeted them politely.

"The prime minister is very polite. I was thinking about finding a time tomorrow to visit the prime minister again. I didn't expect the prime minister to come to the door first. It's a coincidence."

"Come on, sit down here first."

With a smile on his face, Lu Dongzan welcomed the two of them to the side stone table.

Soon a guard brought the wine, "This is my highland barley wine from Tubo, if you two don't mind it, you might as well try it."

Lu Dongzan personally filled the two, and said with a smile.

Zhou Jinyan took a look at Yan Ruyu, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, tasted it again and again, and said with a smile: "Not bad, the taste is mellow, it leaves a fragrance on the lips and teeth, and the aftertaste is endless."

Lu Dong praised with a smile, "If you two like it, I brought a lot this time, so I can give some to you two."

"Then it will be troublesome."

Zhou Jinyan is not polite, Tubo's specialties are not accepted in vain.

Besides, it tastes really good.

Compared with the fine wine of Tang Dynasty, it has a different flavor.

Chapter 732 Ten thousand taels of gold

After saying a few words casually, Lu Dongzan changed his voice, "Do you know Zhou Shaoqing and those women from Daughter Country?"

"Oh, some friendship."

Zhou Jinyan was secretly vigilant, knowing that Lu Dongzan must have discovered something.

"friendship?"

Lu Dongzan asked curiously: "If I remember correctly, Zhou Shaoqing is the prefect of Yazhou, how can he have some friendship with people from Daughter Kingdom?"

Zhou Jinyan had a playful expression, and said lightly: "When I was in Yazhou, Daughter Country seemed to have experienced something, so I sent someone to have some friendly exchanges with me in Yazhou."

As Zhou Jinyan spoke, his voice changed abruptly, "It's you Tubo, when will the war with Xihai City be over?"

Lu Dongzan was embarrassed for a while.

He thought to himself, we wanted to finish the fight, but we were completely defeated, how should we fight?

And Daughter Country is considered a failure at best, but Xihai City is different.

It is now called the Holy City by Tubo.

Who dares to fight Xihai City.

"This, hehe, I don't know too well."

Lu Dong praised: "However, Zanpu intends to give up attacking the two places."

"Oh, why?" Zhou Jinyan laughed.

Lu Dongzan took a deep breath and said, "That's why I'm looking for Zhou Shaoqing today."

Zhou Jinyan was slightly taken aback, and secretly scolded the old fox, unexpectedly causing him to bring up the topic without knowing it.

At the moment, he could only look at him with a smile.

"Just now, the female guard in Tubo, the weapon that killed General Fusang, did General Zhou see it?"

Zhou Jinyan said, "You mean that hidden weapon?"

"hidden weapon?"

Lu Dongzan stared at him for a while, and said, "I'm afraid it's not a hidden weapon, but a new type of weapon, very powerful."

"How powerful can it be?"

Zhou Jinyan said disdainfully: "Can I be as powerful as my Tang Dynasty's Tiejun?"

Lu Dong praised: "..."

"I don't want to hide it from Zhou Shaoqing. My Tubo iron cavalry is rampant in the world. I should be invincible, but a large part of the reason for my defeat in the war with Daughter Kingdom is because of that weapon."

Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "President, is it possible that your country can't afford to lose? When you fight against women, you actually attribute the failure to weapons."

Lu Dongzan was annoyed. After trying to calm down, he said lightly, "I'm afraid Zhou Shaoqing doesn't know something. Daughter Kingdom not only has the weapon just now, but also more powerful weapons. One ghost fire can kill dozens of soldiers."

Zhou Jinyan was overjoyed when he heard it, he was probably talking about a bomb.

He pretended to be surprised and said: "Oh, there is such a powerful weapon?"

"Would not it be."

Lu Dongzan said: "Otherwise, why did the guards of Daughter's Kingdom defeat General Fusang just now? General Fusang's force is obviously stronger than that of Daughter's Kingdom's guards, but he was still attacked to death in the end."

"It doesn't matter, my Great Tang Tianwei Longhou, Nuerguo and Fusang only worship, forgive them and don't dare to have second thoughts."

Lu Dongzan was speechless for a while. Today, he suspected that Zhou Jinyan had something to do with Xihai City and Daughter Country.

No matter how you talk, you always feel that something is wrong?

After rambling on and on, seeing Zhou Jinyan's words getting more and more outrageous, Lu Dongzan lost his patience.

"Zhou Shaoqing, I want to ask, Yazhou and Xihai City are relatively close, do you have that kind of weapon?"

"What weapon?" Zhou Jinyan pretended not to understand.

"It's the kind of weapon from Daughter Kingdom." Lu Dongzan's eyes lit up, "If there is one, I'm willing to pay a high price for it."

Zhou Jinyan sneered again and again in his heart, his wolf ambition was fully exposed.

"Xihai City did give me some of that kind of weapon, but I don't know how to use it, and it feels far from my Tang Dynasty's crossbow, so I just threw it aside."

Lu Dongzan was overjoyed, and Zhou Jinyan said that he really had something to do with Xihai City.

But what surprised him was that Xihai City actually gave the weapon to Zhou Jinyan, instead of Zhou Jinyan giving the weapon to Xihai City.

This is different from what he envisioned.

"I don't know Zhou Shaoqing, can you sell me the weapon?" Lu Dongzan asked in a low voice.

"You mean that weapon?"

Zhou Jinyan smiled, "It's not impossible, but after all, it's a gift from someone else, so I can't just give it to you, can I?"

Lu Dongzan smiled slightly, "Zhou Shaoqing will offer you a price. I, Lu Dongzan, don't need many, as long as I have that kind of weapon."

"price?"

Zhou Jinyan smiled and said, "I'm afraid the prime minister can't afford it. According to people in Xihai City, that kind of weapon is very expensive."

Lu Dongzan said indifferently: "Problems that can be solved with money are not problems. Although Zhou Shaoqing pays, I, Lu Dongzan, have nothing else, but a lot of money."

Zhou Jinyan held out a finger.

Lu Dongzan frowned and said, "Ten taels of gold?"

Zhou Jinyan was speechless, for a moment, he smiled and said: "Those weapons forged with ten taels of gold, do you think any of them can compare with firearms?"

Lu Dong praised that anger, didn't you say that you don't know about firearms?

I didn't say it was called a firearm just now, okay?

But now that he has something to ask for, he dare not say more.

And some powerful weapons do require a lot of gold.

The price of firearms is more expensive than ten taels of gold, and he can accept it.

Gritting his teeth, "100 taels?"

Zhou Jinyan withdrew his hand directly, "President, do you know how many firearms there are in Xihai City?"

"How many?"

"Less than five hundred."

"so little?"

Zhou Jinyan sneered: "It is precisely because of the few that you can appear powerful."

The corners of Lu Dongzan's mouth moved slightly, and he smiled unnaturally.

"Of course, the bigger reason is that this kind of weapon is too expensive. When they build it, they spend too much money."

Lu Dongzan nodded and said, "So that's the case, but no matter how expensive this powerful weapon is, it shouldn't be overstated."

After a pause, he whispered, "Could it be 1000 taels?"

This is already his bottom line, if the firearms are so expensive, then buy some wool.

Zhou Jinyan shook his head, and said directly, "To be honest, 1 taels."

"hiss!"

Lu Dongzan gasped, and stared at Zhou Jinyan in a daze, "Zhou Shaoqing, you are not lying to me, are you?"

How can there be such a valuable weapon.

Although Yan Ruyu was also surprised, she knew that Zhou Jinyan must be cheating people of money.

Back then, the little spicy strips could be sold for hundreds of copper coins.

If the weapon is really as powerful as he said, with this guy's personality, it's not surprising that it would sell for 1 taels of gold.

"So, it's not that I'm reluctant to give it to you. The main reason is that this thing is too precious, and I think it's also flashy. It's just been used as an ornament."

Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "President, don't be fooled, this weapon is not easy to use, and we don't even use it in Tang Dynasty."

Lu Dong praised: "..."

"You haven't been beaten, of course you don't have to."

He always felt that Zhou Jinyan was mocking him, but he couldn't find any evidence.

Glancing at Zhou Jinyan, he saw a half-smile.

He couldn't help trembling in his heart, and thought to himself, "At least I have experienced heavy wind and rain, why did I lose my composure today? I let a brat eat me to death."

Chapter 733 All Nations Come to DPRK

Taking a deep breath, he smiled and said, "It's really too expensive. How could Xihai City build this kind of weapon? Although it's powerful, it's too expensive, right?"

Zhou Jinyan shook his head and said, "I don't know about that either. I laughed at them before. Building this kind of weapon is a waste of money."

Lu Dong praised that anger, as the prefect of Yazhou, don't you know that I, Tubo, was defeated by Xihai City?
