We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

The wine tastes good, but you can't just drink it with your eyes wide open.

Fortunately, after sitting for a while, someone brought us roasted venison.

Ami's cooking technique is still very primitive, just ordinary grilling. However, the venison is very fresh, and they have a wide variety of spices, which makes it taste unique.

With food and drinks, the atmosphere was not so dull anymore.

During the meal, Kawas gestured to Li Che many times and kept pointing to the lighter that Li Che gave him.

Li Che just smiled and passed it off, with no intention of delving into the topic with him.

The deal he wanted was not a simple barter, so it would be better to wait until the translator arrived.

To Li Che's surprise, only an hour or two later, a noise was heard outside.

He and Kawas went out to check, and it was Yingbu who came with a group of people wearing Daqing official robes.

After Kawas gave the order, the tribal warriors outside the camp let them pass, and Li Che quickly stepped forward to meet them.

An official in his forties saluted tremblingly, "I am the Yizhou Interpreter, paying my respects to His Majesty the Prince."

Li Che nodded slightly, motioning him to stand up, then looked at Ying Bu: "Why so fast?"

Yizhou is not small, and the provincial capital is located close to Fuzhou. It is normal for a fleet to take one or two days to travel back and forth.

Ying Bu also looked surprised. "I just went out to sea when I ran into a boat sent by Yizhou. It turns out that some fishermen saw the fleet and informed the authorities. They were afraid that we would clash with the locals, so they immediately sent people over."

"There happened to be an interpreter on board. I knew you were worried, so I brought him here."

"Well done." Li Che praised and turned to look at the Yizhou interpreter, "Do you know the Ami language?"

"Your Highness, the languages ​​of the various tribes in Yizhou are similar, so simple communication should be no problem."

"Okay." Li Che nodded, "Follow me."

Everyone returned to the long house again. After both sides sat down as host and guest, Kawas ordered people to serve barbecue and fruit.

Li Che also nodded to the translator beside him and said:

"I, Li Che, am the Prince of Daqing. This time, our fleet is passing through your precious land in the name of peace."

After the translator conveyed Li Che's words, Kawas smiled and nodded, and replied.

The translator listened carefully, then said to Li Che, "He said he could sense your good intentions, Your Highness. The Ami tribe welcomes friends."

Li Che nodded slightly and continued: "This time I came here, in addition to visiting your tribe, I also want to make a deal with you."

After hearing what the translator said, Kawas became interested and asked, "What deal?"

"I see that your land is home to many precious medicinal herbs and spices, and we have what you need, such as fine silk, porcelain, and glass beads..."

After the translator finished speaking, Li Che ordered his personal guards to take out these things and place them in front of Kawas.

"We can use these things to exchange for your specialties, and we need you to provide some fruits and vegetables to replenish the fleet's inventory."

After listening to this, Kawas was silent for a moment and said, "We do have a lot of things you need, but..."

He paused and took out the lighter that Li Che gave him: "But, I want these things more."

Li Che smiled. The reason why he deliberately did not mention practical things such as lighters and daggers was to take the initiative in the negotiations.

This was taught to him by his ex-girlfriend who studied marketing. Using this kind of business negotiation technique against the Amis is indeed a bit bullying.

"Of course these things can be exchanged, but..."

He paused and said, "These things are not exchanged for fruits and local specialties, but for other things, and they have a different price."

The translator was stunned for a moment, but still translated it to Kawas.

Kawas looked puzzled and asked, "King of Daqing, what do you want?"

Li Che smiled slightly and glanced at the Ami people present: "Although it may be a bit presumptuous, I found that your tribe seems to be short of warriors."

This was a bit rude, and Kawas's face changed slightly: "What does this have to do with you?"

Li Che put away his smile and his tone became serious. "Of course it is related. This means that your tribe must be facing a severe external threat and needs to consume a large number of male population to resist the foreign enemies. Am I right?"

Kavas stood up suddenly, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

Any official in the Daqing officialdom can show the ability to see the big picture from small details and read people's expressions.

But among the simple-minded Amis people, this is somewhat surprising.

Li Che ignored his shock and continued, "I can help you. My army can help you conquer all the tribes in Yizhou and make you the sole master of this land!"

When these words were spoken, even the translator was stunned. He didn't expect that this King Feng would make such a big move right from the start.

Seeing that the translator didn't speak for a long time, Li Che gave him a cold look and said, "Translate for me carefully. If you miss a word, watch out for your head!"

Hearing Li Che's villainous words, the translator shrank his neck and repeated them from the bottom of his heart.

Kawas was stunned. He didn't expect Li Che to make such a suggestion. He also knew that the Daqing man in front of him had this ability.

After a moment of silence, Kawas slowly sat back in his seat and said firmly, "No, we don't need your help. We Amis can protect ourselves on our own! Please leave here. I don't want to see you again!"

Li Che looked at Kawas and saw that his expression did not seem fake, and suddenly smiled.

"Yes, if you agree to my conditions, I will not cooperate with you."

Hearing the translator's words, Kawas's face became even more confused: "What do you mean?"

Li Che said slowly and calmly, "Since you don't want to use war to exchange for tribal peace, then we can only use another method."

"Unite the various tribes of Yizhou and establish a nation where everyone can live and work in peace and contentment on this island."

Kawas frowned. What Li Che said was obviously beyond his understanding: "Why are we doing this?"

"Because you have to do this, otherwise you will die!" Li Che said seriously, "Yizhou is a treasure island, enough to support hundreds of millions of people. We in Daqing have a saying, 'A gentleman is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure!'"

"The reason you're all safe and sound and still have the energy to attack each other is because you're lucky enough not to have encountered any outsiders with strong desire for aggression."

"If it wasn't me who landed on the island today, but some other country capable of sailing here, you wouldn't be greeted with lighters and glass balls..."

"But strong bows, crossbows, butcher knives and cannons!"
