Chapter 342 Aini's Decision
.A shocking performance.”
Yi Ming sat in the warm restaurant, looking at the flying colorful flags outside, and a hundred corpses pierced by spears and hanging in the square. He shook the wine in the glass and looked at His Majesty the king in front of him with a smile. The other envoys had returned to their rooms. Looking at their appearance, they obviously had to change their strategies and directions from the shocking performance just now. The new king of the Marco Kingdom stared at Yi Ming silently. On both sides of him, many civil and military officials also sat Next to him, staring at Yi Ming with anticipation, anxiety, excitement and thoughts. Many of them were companions who had fought with Yi Ming. After leaving Yi Ming, they obviously experienced a lot, gained some, and perhaps lost more. Yi Ming even saw the fat man. At this moment, he no longer had the recklessness he had when he first met, and replaced it with rational thinking. Of course, even these old people who knew Yi Ming were completely unaware of what he was thinking in his heart.
At this moment, Aini suddenly pulled Raiming's collar, and then she climbed to Yiming's ears under the crowd of people in the hall, as if she was whispering something. Yiming's face remained unchanged, and she still shook the wine glass in her hand. Until Aini finished what she wanted to say and retracted back into Yiming's arms, Yiming then looked up at everyone. A cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"We can agree to your request."
As he said that, Yi Ming raised his hand and signaled them not to speak for now.
"But we also have our own conditions. If you can't do it, then I'm sorry."
“What conditions?”
King New Marco stared at Yiming's eyes and asked in a deep voice.
“The first one……………”
As he said that, Yi Ming glanced at everyone present.
"Kill all the old Marco people in the land. Those once Marco people must be cleared. None of them remain."
"department?"
King Mark's expression: Change.
"It's a very difficult task. We don't want our allies to cause civil unrest in every three days - we think you should understand what I mean. After all, you are doing this place of origin." Yi Ming looked one by one. Obviously, people knew very well about his statement. After all, after the talented people ruled so brutally, especially after such a founding ceremony, the conflict between the Dimarco Kingdom and the talented people was even more acute. In this case, comforting or enslaving them became impossible to complete the work. Even relatively few people could have a coup. Can ordinary people naturally have this possibility.
"If necessary, don't leave any one."
Yi Ming repeated his proposal.
“It’s very difficult, Lord Yiming.
”
A minister frowned.
"You know, after our successful founding of the country, it is not easy for many people to hide in the mountains and forests to find them. Moreover... we do not have enough troops to conduct searches and investigations of this level. In addition, we have very few talented people, and once any casualties occur..."
"You don't need to worry about this. If you agree, we will provide support. I just want to ask you now, do you agree to do this."
Yi Ming interrupted the minister's defense and continued to repeat his opinion with his face unchanged expression.
“……………………………”
The king did not speak on the contrary. He looked at the ministers around him first, and then gritted his teeth.
"I agree."
"The next second."
Yi Ming stretched out two fingers.
"I demand that the Kingdom of Marco must block the border and shall not trade with any country except Leah, of course, as compensation for this, they will give you the goods you need at a lower price."
"this……………"
The second condition proposed by Yiming soon blew up among the crowd, and they looked at each other uneasyly, whispering to each other. After all, Jihe Trade is the lifeblood of a country, and if even Leah is allowed to control it, then they are simply equivalent to being completely controlled by each other. However, even so, everyone has no other way. They can only look at their king for help and wait for him to give an answer.
"Can I ask, why?"
"Why?"
Faced with the questions raised by the king, Yi Ming smiled coldly.
"Do you think there is still a need to answer this question?"
As he said that, he stretched out a hand and pointed out the window.
"Those guys saw it today's ceremony in their hearts. You must know that they are not magicians or talented warriors, they are just ordinary people." Yi Ming took the three words "ordinary people" very seriously.
"Of course, in my opinion, this may be nothing wrong. But for them, it is different. Do you think that even if they don't turn against you for the sake of national interests, will they willingly trade with a country that can kill "ordinary people" so happily? Talented people have the ideas of our talented people themselves. And of course they are the same. Even if they really won't reject your trade requests, they will definitely give you a lot of trouble. Think about it carefully, what they have, we have, we have, what they don't have, we have, and we have, and we will sell it to you at a price of 30% lower than the market price. What are your dissatisfactions?"
"So, Lord Yiming, what reward do you want to get if you do this?"
The fat man who had never spoken was spoken.
It's OK, it seems that he has not exercised in vain during this period.
Yi Ming nodded in his heart before continuing.
"It's very simple. I only have one person."
"people?"
"When an emergency occurs, you must unconditionally provide talented warriors to Yuria. And, I remember that if both husband and wife are talented people, then they will have a higher chance of giving birth to talented people?"
"It's not very high, Lord Yiming."
The king shook his head and said denied.
"A talented couple can have one talented person in at most three children. Of course, there are also rare people born with talented people, but this is also an exception. After all, there is no rule in the creation of talented people, and the combination between us talented people is just a little more accurate."
“One-third is not low, my request is that those children who are not talented don’t need to kill them and give them to us.
OK. This is our exchange. And as compensation, when you threaten and violate, we will assist you in defending your own territory at all costs."
"I agree!"
Hearing this, the king finally made a decision without any hesitation.
It is obvious that the reason why the kingdom can only defend the only land at present is because their army is too small. After all, talented people are not ordinary people, and it is not easy for them to gather together. Not to mention letting them garrison the border. If the number of border guards is too small, they will be attacked by other countries, which is inevitable. Therefore, when the king heard Yi Ming say this, he quickly agreed to this.
"Article 3."
Yi Ming stretched out another finger.
"I ask the magician to treat you as the people of your country here. You must know that the wizards are not ordinary people, and the magicians are closely related to the fate of talented warriors. I hope you can distinguish them. Moreover, in the future, we will send some magicians to assist your country's border defense work. I don't want to see talented people treat them the same as ordinary people. After all, if you really do this, it will be of no benefit to you."
“……………This is certainly OK.”
"very good."
Facing the king's answer, he looked at the ministers around him with a strange smile.
"Do you have any objections?"
"No."
Everyone whispered to each other for a moment, and then the fat man answered again on behalf of everyone.
It was not until then that Aini raised her head and slowly took out a magic scroll from her arms. She didn't see her chanting spells. The magic scroll opened in an instant and appeared in front of Aini. Aini reached out and stroked by, and a lily seal full of magical aura appeared on it. Then, the scroll quickly flew to the long table and floated in front of the king. After carefully checking the article, the king took out a knife with a serious expression, cut his fingers, and dripped a drop of blood on it.
The magic scroll emitted a strong and bright light again, and then disappeared into the air.
And just as everyone was still amazed by Leah's magical skills, Yi Ming was already holding Aini and stood up.
"So, I hope we can cooperate happily."
As he said that, he nodded at the king, then turned around and walked out of the room.
It was not until this time that the king took a heavy breath and sat down in his seat.
When the power of magic flowed throughout his body, he already knew the meaning of signing this treaty - it must not be violated, and the treaty will not be terminated until he dies. Once he wants to modify or refuse to implement these treaties, then what they face will be the endless curse and destruction of the magic spirit. This is an unequal treaty, but the king has long been prepared in his heart. He is not so arrogant that he really thinks that he can lead this group of talented people to rule the country and keep it going.
“We are too vulnerable.”
Yi Ming stroked Aini's little head, and a trace of heaviness flashed in his eyes.
"We are not magicians, our abilities and tools cannot be changed."
He gently stroked Ainie's hair and said in a helpless voice.
"Even if Meyalie and I have a child, we cannot guarantee that the child will inherit our abilities or possess his abilities. Because our parents are ordinary people, they do not have any abilities. And even if the child has the abilities, we cannot guarantee that the same will be true for his descendants... Perhaps, it is only a matter of time before we can perish sooner or later."
"Woo meow..."
Aini closed her eyes tightly and said nothing, but curled up in Yiming's arms.
This is why Yi Ming did not choose to establish his own country. There are too few people with superpowers. Even if they have children, they cannot guarantee that they can survive. This is a fragile connection layer that cannot even withstand any slight impact. In fact, Yi Ming understands very well that the king also understands that a country full of talent will not last too long. It cannot be passed down for hundreds of years or even thousands of years like other countries. It is very likely that a country will disappear again in the desert of history and become a grain of sand called the past, just like other countries.
But, at least for now, they have realized this dream.
Thinking of this, Yi Ming cheered up again and bounced Aini's forehead with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect that you had so much bad water in your stomach. It seems that Mayalie and I are going to re-evaluate you."
"Ani is a good kid..."
Aini, who was half asleep and half awake, raised her head and protested softly, then started her sleep journey again.
"Good boy..."
Facing Aini, who was sleeping like a little lazy cat, Yi Ming could only smile helplessly and shake his head, and then he stopped and turned to look at the man standing on the other side of the corridor.
"Your Highness the Second Prince, I didn't expect that after watching such a tense and intense performance, you didn't go back and have a good rest."
“……………………I have something to ask Lord Yiming.”
The second prince stared at Yi Ming's face, trying to see something from the face with a strange smile.
"Why, in that kind of occasion, you don't come forward to stop His Majesty the King's decision?"
"I have no right to stop, nor have the qualifications to stop."
Yiming shrugged.
"This is not our war, Your Highness. This is not our battlefield. We do not have the right to make a comment on everything that happened here. Only those who have experienced this are qualified to do so. I think you may have been used to the days of peace on behalf of others and have forgotten this basic principle."
“……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"It has nothing to do with me. They are not people of Leah, nor are they gifted. I don't need to care whether they are guilty or not. And you have no evidence to show that they are innocent."
