Chapter 243
Soon, the kings of the kingdoms came to the main hall of the palace.
At this time, the hundred officials and ministers of Great Qin had already divided the civil and military ranks, and sat with each other.
Ying Zheng sat high on the dragon couch, and He Chao, the candidate of the country, sat on the right.
The kings of all countries saluted Yingzheng with the Great Qin etiquette, and said in unison,
"See Your Majesty!"
"I've seen Dingguohou!"
Ying Zheng looked at the dozen or so kings in the court, nodded, and said,
"Show the kings of the nations!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The kings of all countries bowed again, and then they took their seats one after another.
After seeing the kings of various countries seated, He Chao and Ying Zheng glanced at each other, revealing an imperceptible sly smile,
Immediately stood up, expressionless and serious,
"Then please ask the kings of all countries to present this year's tribute to Your Majesty!"
"This..."
The kings of all countries looked at each other, never expecting that this Great Qin Ding Candidate would be so direct, and they all hesitated,
The king of Tu'an was the first to stand up and said,
"Tu'an Guo presents His Majesty with a hundred catties of good agate! Two hundred stones of fine grain!"
Ying Zheng nodded when he heard this, after all, Tu'an is a small country, and its princess Yushu is married to Dingguo Hou He Chao as his wife.
This tribute, to be able to come up with such gifts, can be regarded as a dedication.
Seeing the king of Tu'an sitting down, the king of Wuji country showed disdain, glanced at the king of Tu'an, and said,
"The king of Tu'an is really generous! He brought so many gifts to pay tribute!"
- "You!"
The king of Tu'an, who was sitting next to the king of Wuji country, heard the other party's words of praise and sarcasm, and he was angry for a while, and he was speechless.
The king of Wuji Country ignored King Tu'an, stood up with his head raised, and saluted Yingzheng,
"The country of Wuji will present your majesty with 50 stones of lychee and longan! 300 horses of selected kudzu!
After speaking, the king of Wuji Country sat down proudly, and his expression looked quite vigorous!
He Chao naturally had a full view of the smug demeanor of the king of the Wuji Country, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, nodded, and said,
"Well, that's good. "
"Next!"
Although on the surface, He Chao expressed his approval of the king of the black chicken country.
But in fact, how did the king of Wuji know what He Chao was thinking at this time-
"Well, it's very embarrassing! dare to humiliate my Yushu wife and his father?"
"You look good at the late auction!"
But before the auction, the king of Dawan Kingdom stood up and glanced at the king of Wuji Kingdom, and said in an urn voice,
"What a generous tribute this king should have received from the black chicken country! He is even embarrassed to mock the king of Tu'an!"
"Hmph! Dawan Kingdom presented 300 catties of grapes and wine to His Majesty the First Emperor of the Great Qin! 200 camels and sheep! Twenty horses of sweat and blood! I hope Your Majesty will accept it with a smile!"
As soon as the voice of the king of Dawan fell, the hundreds of officials and ministers in the court couldn't help but nod their heads and said,
"The king of this Dawan country is very generous! Not to mention wine and alpacas, twenty horses of sweat and blood! This is quite precious!"
"Yes! Although we all have cars, we can not only travel thousands of miles a day, but also sweat like blood!"
"Such a precious and rare breed of horse! Dawan Kingdom actually presented twenty horses at a time!
"This is much more expensive than the fruits and gems and jewelry of the Black Chicken Country!"
"That's it!"
“......"
Listening to the discussions of the people around him, the king of the black chicken country was already ashamed and indignant at this time!
But he was helpless and couldn't attack, so he had to stare at the king of Dawan with hatred, impotent and furious.
The king of Dawan didn't pay any attention to the eyes of the king of the black chicken country, and after presenting the resignation list, he sat down by himself and didn't look at the king of the black chicken country!
The king of the black chicken country is so angry that he blows his beard and glares!
He Chao and Yingzheng looked at the look of the king of the Wuji Kingdom below, and then looked at the appearance of no one in the eyes of the king of Dawan Kingdom, and they couldn't help but secretly say in their hearts,
"The auction will be late, there may be a good show~!"
Let's talk about the tribute, after the Dawan Kingdom presented the gift list, it was followed by the Yelang Kingdom!
"Yelang Kingdom presents His Majesty with 200 catties of peppers, 100 bottles of Lang wine, a pair of jade cabbage, and 2 night pearls!"
When he heard the Lang wine reported by the king of Yelang Kingdom, He Chao couldn't help but feel a little surprised in his heart,
"Didn't Langjiu start in 1903?
In fact, He Chao didn't know that the Lang wine in the mouth of the king of Yelang Country was not the famous Lang wine in later generations...
"The country of Qiuzi presents a hundred heads of cattle and sheep for His Majesty! Two boxes of pearls!"
"The Goguryeo Kingdom presented 200 pieces of silk to His Majesty the First Emperor of the Great Qin! 10 beauties! 2 100-year-old ginseng!"
"Loulan Kingdom presents two boxes of gold to His Majesty!"
“......"
After all the kings of the countries finished singing the gift list, He Chao turned his head and glanced at Yingzheng,
Seeing Ying Zheng nodding, He Chao showed a smile on his face and said,
"Since the kings of all countries have paid their tribute, let's first offer you the good wine and food of my Great Qin!
"Wait until the banquet is over, and then arrange another program for the kings! What do you think?"
The king of Dawan applauded,
"Hou Ye should have served the wine and food a long time ago! This king has long heard that Daqin's dishes are extremely delicious! The wine brewed can be called Yulu elixir!"
"I've always heard about it but I haven't had a chance to taste it, but now I come to the Great Qin Palace, and I have to taste it well if I say anything!
After the king of Dawan said, the other kings also nodded in agreement.
At this time, the waiters had already served wine and food to everyone, and the kings couldn't help but drool when they saw many dishes on the table!
The king of Dawan Kingdom hurriedly picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass!
When the cup was full, he put his nose in front of the cup again, stretched out his right hand and fanned the cup, smelled the tempting aroma of wine in the cup, and immediately laughed,
"Hahaha!
Ying Zheng and the hundreds of officials and ministers in the court couldn't help but smile when they saw this.
He Chao couldn't help but shake his head, a sly smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and he persuaded,
"The kings of the kingdoms must not be greedy!"
"In order to show Great Qin's welcome to the kings of all countries, there is an important event waiting for you to participate after the banquet later!"
He Chao said, and suddenly all the kings moved their puzzled eyes to He Chao.
The king of the black chicken country was the first to speak,
"I don't know what the important activities Hou Ye is talking about?"
He Chao glanced at the king of the Wuji Kingdom with a smile and said,
"It doesn't hurt to tell you now. "
"Your Majesty and Ben Hou are very moved when they think of all of you who have worked tirelessly and traveled to come to Daqin to pay tribute!"
"As early as a few months ago, His Majesty instructed Benhou to design and manufacture a batch of limited-edition luxury cars!
Speaking of this, He Chao stopped, and when he saw that all the kings showed a look full of longing, He Chao pretended to regret again,
"It's a pity that the time is too short! So I racked my brains to design ten luxury models! And let the factory produce one of each!"
Thinking that the kings must not be able to get one, he had a clumsy plan and specially prepared a luxury car auction after the banquet. "
"At that time, if the kings have a luxury car that they like, they can bid at will, and the one with the highest price will get it!"
When the kings heard that it was an auction, the excitement on their faces suddenly diminished, after all, everyone here could be regarded as old vixens, and no one wanted to be the wrongdoer.
Seeing this, He Chao didn't care, pretended to have just remembered, and added,
"Oh! I forgot to tell the kings!"
"Because the ten models designed this time are all limited editions, we promise that only one of each model will be produced!"
"And, to ensure that the king's car is unique in this world!"
"All the limited edition models sold at this auction will never be produced again!"
As soon as He Chao's voice fell, the eyes of the kings of all countries suddenly rekindled a blazing fire!
