Chapter 470: Qin's request

"Two of you, please sit down." Li Mu gestured with a raised hand.

"Thank you." Shang Wen Shili. Han Shu also sat down together. the difference is. The two sat down next to each other.

"The general is a soldier. I am a civilian. Then, I will follow the way of thinking of a soldier without any attempt to explain what the Qin State means." Shang Wen pointed to the goal directly. This kind of discussion is also very consistent with Li Mu's character. Instead of going around, it's better to go directly to the topic.

at this time. There are already three people in the house. Once the idle and miscellaneous people waited long ago, they would withdraw. It can be said that this is a closed-door meeting.

"The main purpose of Qin is to trade. The prerequisite for trade is to cease war with Yan. And the ministers agree to maintain peace. Send envoys to recognize the status of South Korea's queen." Shang Wen said slowly. Now that we talked about South Korea's current situation. Qin had no choice but to earn some benefits for his allies.

"If possible, other terms other than the four countries can be reached. My proposal is that in view of the large number of prisoners produced in the war, we should provide humanitarian protection to these prisoners. For example, they cannot be killed at will, tortured, etc.. At the same time, both sides should be treated. The personal safety and property of civilians should also be provided with certain protection." Shang Wen said slowly.

"How to guarantee these." Li Mu is a soldier naturally more concerned about these.

"Based on the legal documents signed by the four countries. If one country does not comply, severe economic sanctions or military strikes will be adopted." Shang Wen said.

"Well, then what Qin did on the battlefield of Changping. Who will bear it?" Li Mu pressed hard. Let Shangwen regress with the help of historical issues.

"We will be responsible. Although this is a historical issue. Perhaps it is something that the first kings of the Qin Kingdom did not want to see. However, we will assume our own historical responsibilities. I will publicly apologize to you on behalf of Qin. At the same time, I will give you a historical issue. Compensation." Shang Wen said.

Li Mu looked at Shang Wen in surprise. He did not expect it to be on historical issues. The prime minister would directly make such a request. Is it just a responsibility? Li Mu still couldn't believe it. But everything that the prime minister had reported in the newspaper before. Make him believe. Such a thing. This prime minister can definitely do it.

"Specific compensation, we will compensate with a certain amount of money or in kind. If necessary. We can solve the employment and education problems of Zhao Guo's lone widows. Please trust our sincerity." Shang Wen said slowly.

"Even if the prime minister apologizes, what can be done with compensation. After all, it has already happened." Li Mu was obviously still holding onto the past.

"Although history has turned that page, we have not turned it over today. We understand everything that happened in the past, so we are responsible for everything that happened in the past. As the prime minister of Qin State, I am willing to bear this kind of responsibility. We are willing to rewrite the history of China. We hope that the two countries can resolve their previous hatred because of our sincerity." Shang Wen said sincerely.

Li Mu waved his hand and didn't mention the matter.

"Because the representative of the State of Yan has not arrived yet." The State of Yan requested this matter for a long time because they wanted to bypass the State of Zhao and enter Xianyang from the north of the State of Qin. Then came to Xinzheng from Xianyang. Very troublesome. It is also very time consuming.

"So, regarding the specific negotiations. We can only talk about the two countries reaching a settlement agreement as soon as possible. Let peace return to the State of Zhao." Shang Wen said.

"As for the country of Zhao and South Korea. I hope that the two countries will establish friendly relations as soon as possible. After all, the two countries are close neighbors. After trade. The two countries still have a lot of communication on trade matters." Shang Wen said in a friendly manner.

Li Mu nodded. Because these things are civilian affairs. His too much as a military attache involved a truce. Moreover, this matter too much mentions commercial activities. This was not there before. This has gone far beyond Li Mu's current cognition.

"As for Zhao and Qin. In addition to trade, Qin hopes that Zhao will adopt a low tax rate after the two countries trade. Do not levy high taxes. At the same time, reduce the tax threshold, and finally control the overall control between several points. Qin State As compensation. At the same time, it is also a historical issue. It will promise to train some overseas students in Zhao State." Shang Wen said.

"Students abroad?" Li Mu asked suspiciously. The Prime Minister of Qin in front of him frequently used words he had never heard before. If it's not for these words, it is easy to understand. Li Mu had already frequently interrupted Shangwen to explain it again.

"Yes. It's the education issue. Qin Guogu trained a group of talents for free to Zhao Guo. As compensation for the Changping Battle. Of course, we will still pay the compensation." Shang Wen said.

"I don't know what aspects are involved in the prime minister's education." Li Mu was more interested in this issue.

"This involves a lot. Qin currently has many branches. For example, there are architecture. Mainly designing bridges and water conservancy projects. There are also machinery. Mainly processing. If the general lacks officers. We also have a military school. There will be a large number of training. Officer, noncommissioned officer." Shang Wen said.

"Does this State of Qin really help the State of Zhao cultivate?" Li Mu asked uncertainly.

"Of course." Shang Wen said with certainty.

"On the Zhao State side, after trading with Qin State, you can still have a lot of contacts with Qin State. For example. I just mentioned that Zhao Jun can participate in Qin State's foreign military operations. This is very welcome by Qin State. The spoils obtained belong You. Of course, if you are willing to sell to us. We are also happy to buy. Those minorities have a large number of horses, cattle, sheep, etc.. But the premise is that you must pay us some money. We can provide you with logistics nearby. Supplies. Similarly. If South Korea is willing to participate, we welcome it. At the same time, the two countries have a large number of commercial products to exchange. Qin has many manufactured products, such as glass, mirrors and so on." Shang Wen introduced.

"I don’t know what Zhao’s finished products are, but if you think it’s possible, you can send a large number of female workers. Our textile factory needs a lot of manpower. There are no technical restrictions. Or some engineering teams. Qin is everywhere. Construction. Especially those newly established states and small towns. They need a well-developed road network. Of course, Qin Guoguo pays you." Shang Wen said.

Li Mu rarely took the initiative to speak in such talks. Because Qin State occupies the initiative of negotiation. Although Qin State showed all his hole cards. But Zhao Guo is still passive.

Li Mu did not immediately agree to Shangwen's request on the grounds that he needed to ask King Zhao for instructions. Shangwen did not hope to get Li Mu's support. Both parties just told their respective requirements before the meeting. There is only one in Zhao country, but there are many in Qin. Qin will be the protagonist on the "international" stage.
