Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 333: Peace talks enter stalemate

This peace talk was forced by the situation and will also bring tangible benefits to the people of both countries.

Su He also wanted to make good use of this opportunity to do something good for the people in the city. She thought that the border town could also raise some cattle and sheep, and they also had some grassland here.

If the two countries ceased fighting, they could graze outside the city and raise a few animals in the village. Having cattle and sheep meant having wool and meat to eat, and having animals to work with. In this way, the living conditions of Ansheng State could be gradually changed.

Su He remembered that they could bring some cotton cloth, tea leaves, and ceramics from the inland areas, so she went to Wang Xiaohu to remind them to prepare in advance. These were what Dongjie State lacked, and they could be used to exchange for their cattle, sheep, and felt.

Wang Xiaohu thought of cotton cloth and tea, but not ceramics, so he quickly sent someone to buy a batch of them. He once again felt how thoughtful Su He was. This girl could help them every time, which was why General Wang An was willing to help them.

If a person wants to be valued by others, he must have his own uniqueness. There is no so much love in the world without reason. You must be valuable first and worthy of others' help.

Su He always knew what she wanted and what she could exchange for. So when she arrived at the border town, she kept an eye on the movements of the general's mansion and tried her best to help.

The peace talks officially began. Both sides sat down, trying to protect their own interests as much as possible. The ninth prince Zhang Liang was not panicked at all, and dealt with it calmly. Anyway, they were not the ones who were anxious now.

Yelu Yixin and his team wanted to exchange more things this time, but the two sides were deadlocked. They talked for several days and still couldn't make any progress. The peace talks were at a stalemate, and both sides wanted to talk further, but the conditions were not agreed.

The Ninth Prince Zhang Liang saw that the situation was stuck, so he went to General Wang An to discuss countermeasures. After the negotiations began, General Wang An did not participate anymore. The emperor had already sent someone to do this, so he could not get involved.

Anyway, the result he wanted had already been achieved. The Ninth Prince and the others had also shown him the written conditions for the peace talks. He had everything he wanted.

He didn't care. The moat outside the city was about to be dug. Xiao Suhe's suggestion to raise fish and shrimps was a good idea for him. Every place should be used, and this idea should be used in the future.

There is basically no vacant land in the city now. Plant trees wherever you can, and plant vegetables in small places. If that doesn't work, plant grass, raise chickens and rabbits. Anyway, there is nothing that can't be used, and the people can have more food.

Su He has always felt that the current prohibition on raising livestock in the village is a result of capital operation. There is no space in the city, and the buildings are closed so it is understandable. Why is it not allowed in the countryside? Chickens and rabbits can be raised with leftovers at home and wild grass everywhere.

Chicken and rabbit manure is a good fertilizer for the fields, and it can also be used for growing vegetables if there is less. But experts still say it is pollution, but I don't know where the pollution is.

Ordinary people can solve the problem of meat and eggs by themselves. Some people have low incomes and have to spend money to buy meat and eggs. It is a waste of household items and money. I don't know who will benefit in the end.

Those so-called experts, bought by capital, do not care about the lives of ordinary people, and only use their mouths to make some messed-up suggestions. These suggestions will also be adopted by some unrealistic managers, and at most they will only provide help to some capital.

The most primitive planting and breeding in the world are here, which has saved many ordinary people. People here don’t know how to operate capital. Business is also primitive, which is good, but I don’t know how long it can last.

Su He never thought that the people here were ignorant, but they just didn't have the opportunity to gain more knowledge.
