Chapter 266 Part1 (2/2)
Then para to Aoi's explanation, her h she herself was a disciple of the Shaet towas because out of a whole year, the Sha would remain in secluded cultivation at the very peak of thehimself for an audience, no one was allowed to disturb him
To put it into perspective, even if the Prairie King himself personally made an appearance at the bottom of the Snowy Mountain to seek advice in so to ith the e still won't coular sha back up to the ot any instruction to pass along to the royal court, it will be done through the Red Skull Flag
“It can't be that you want to impersonate as a Shaman of the Snowy Mountain?” Du Wei shakes his head like he almost couldn't believe his oords
Philip giggles: “It's not athered, the connection between the royal court of the prairie and the Snowy Mountain is practically one way As long as the Prairie King doesn't go confirm the truth, no flaill be found It's just that we don't have a proper candidate to be the impersonator We can ask that fe, then it's best to abandon the idea for risk of being caught”
“The feht: “She will likely listen”
The negotiation the following day was ed to strike a deal with Hah was that Hamuye still wouldn't yield an inch on the compensation terms
“Duke, I think your country is sohty thousand war-horses? On your first draft, you only wrote thirty thousand!! It's already ihty thousand!!!”
Du Wei immediately retorted: “But Hamuye, the terms before never included the withdrawal of our troops frorassland We've already come to a concession, why couldn't your side pay a little more?”
“Eighty thousand war horses… … That's simply too rassland has a lot of horses, but war-horses are different Out of every five horses born, therethe requirements of a war-horse!! I looked over the terms and I can accept the numbers for the cattle, but I absolutely cannot accept the other half!”
Du Wei's face darkened and iet two sheep with a single good quality sword of the e to do with them?”
Ha a peace talk, then that n the paper What good will so ht!”
Du Wei counterattacked: “Then why do you need so many war-horses?”
Just like that, both sides went at it alland eventually decided on the thirty thousand number
Seeing Ha to his terms, Du Wei didn't knohether to be happy in his heart or feel disturbed
When your enemy can discard thirty thousand war-horses so easily, it makes one wonder what their true potentials are Froe tribe like Hamuye's can easily amass tens of thousands of horseest tribes in the grassland will be able to amass over a hundred thousand horse!!
Now then, if the Prairie King rassland for war, how many horsemen will that be when there are hundreds of tribes under this king's command?!
With the horses out of the way, the next part in the compensation will naturally be the cattle At first Hamuye proposed ten thousand cattle in the deal but was iument: you've already conceded thirty thousand horses, why do you care about some measly cattle Can it be that you value cattle more than your horses?
After a long period of back and forth, the final numbers came up to twenty thousand cattle and thirty thousand horses In addition, Du Wei ed to add in ten thousand fine leathers outside of the deal, of course, the extra leather was for the empire and not himself, but he can't let this Hamuye know that now can he?
Hamuye was very cooperative on Du Wei's unreasonable demand because this Prince ell versed in the politics of the empire If Du Wei didn't take the initiative to make this private demand, Hamuye would find it odd and be on the alert
Ten thousand leather, pfff… That's really nothing for the people of the grassland
