Chapter 642

Whether as the ruler of a nation or as Jiang Yan's disciple.

Little Ningguang proposed these conditions not only to vent anger on behalf of her Master, but also to secure greater benefits for Liyue.

This is also the reason why Jiang Yan felt so confident handing over the follow-up matters to Little Ningguang.

Little Ningguang is wise and has been in business for many years; she has also stayed by Jiang Yan's side for many years and knows what a merchant and a nation's ruler should pursue.

Jiang Yan and Morax can be said to have granted Little Ningguang immense autonomy.

During Jiang Yan's rule, he not only made the position of Tianquan deeply rooted, but also forged the entire nation into an impregnable fortress.

The national treasury was full, the soldiers' morale was at its peak, and the people were wealthy and peaceful.

It can be said that Jiang Yan directly handed Little Ningguang a situation with a huge advantage and favorable winds.

Of course, the outcome was exactly as Jiang Yan had expected.

After taking over the Tianquan position, Little Ningguang quickly began to consolidate her power.

In a short time, she eradicated several high officials who sought to cause trouble during the Tianquan power transition.

But ultimately, some fish slipped through the net and were not found.

But it doesn't matter; once I return, not a single one of them will escape.

"Your Majesty, since matters have come to this, our best choice seems to be to agree."

The young girl spoke softly to the Tsaritsa.

The Tsaritsa trembled, her eyes filled with unwillingness and helplessness.

Snezhnaya's diplomats and Harbingers also lowered their heads, each wearing an expression of helplessness in their eyes.

There was no choice; Snezhnaya now had a blade at its throat, and resistance was impossible.

Some had not even recovered their wits yet.

It can be said that just the day before, Snezhnaya was still filled with peace and tranquility.

Everyone was striving hard for the nation's tomorrow.

They were all running with all their might for the Tsaritsa's goal.

But the moment that man descended, it was as if all means, all strategies, vanished in that instant.

It was useless.

Jiang Yan proved it with his own strength.

Before the overwhelming force of absolute domination, any flashy schemes and plots were so pale and powerless.

Snezhnaya did not even have a chance to resist.

In an instant, Jiang Yan suppressed the entire Snezhnaya Realm, and the Liyue army swiftly seized dominance over Snezhnaya's land, sea, and air.

"I......."

After a long silence, the Tsaritsa spoke; she seemed to have made a great determination, gritting her teeth.

"I agree to the conditions your side has offered..."

After saying these words, the Tsaritsa seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and slumped into her chair.

Little Ningguang smiled slightly, as if she knew the Tsaritsa would agree, and pushed the document in her hand toward the Tsaritsa.

"Then, let us sign the contract."

"In the name of Morax, the God of Contracts, sign the contract!"

A god's contract carries absolute effect.

If you violate this contract.

Then it will not be Jiang Yan who comes next, but Morax.

0 · Request flowers · ······

To violate a contract, especially one between nations.

Then Morax will not care about the friendship of comrades.

The Tsaritsa clenched her fists, but in the end, she relaxed them.

Did Snezhnaya have the right to refuse?

It seemed not.

Finally, under the witness of all officials and Harbingers on the Snezhnaya side, the Snezhnaya Tsaritsa and the Liyue Tianquan signed the first unequal treaty between the two nations.

"Snow Country Treaty"

The treaty stipulates: Liyue shall return Snezhnaya's territorial waters and airspace, and withdraw the armies surrounding Snezhnaya.

The Liyue side shall not interfere in Snezhnaya's internal affairs nor dispatch troops into Snezhnaya.

Establish a permanent Liyue embassy stationed in Snezhnaya City.

Snezhnaya shall open twelve border ports, prioritizing trade with Liyue.

All ores within Snezhnaya shall be sold to Liyue merchants at one-tenth of the original price.

For this conflict between the two sides, Snezhnaya shall unconditionally compensate Liyue five hundred million Mora, to be paid in three years.

During these three years, Snezhnaya shall not collect any taxes from Liyue merchants, including customs duties on goods.

Open Fatui technology for Liyue to study.

Besides the Mora economic compensation, Snezhnaya shall unconditionally compensate Liyue with treasures, rare ores, rare animals, and cultural relics in various quantities.

In the name of Morax, the God of Contracts, both sides sign the contract; if violated, the oath-breaker shall suffer the Penalty of the Rock!

............ 0

After joint drafting by both sides, the contract was finally signed by the Snezhnaya Third Harbinger, The Girl, and the Liyue Tianquan.

There was no choice; the Snezhnaya Tsaritsa could not personally intervene, the Snezhnaya Chief Executive Pierro had been directly beaten into silence by Jiang Yan, and the Second Harbinger Il Dottore had been directly erased by Jiang Yan.

Thus, they could only have The Girl, as the Third Seat, appear.

After the "Treaty of the Snow Nation" was fully signed, Little Ningguang handed a copy back to the Fatui side and said with a smile:

"Then, the treaty is signed."

Little Ningguang smiled and stood up.

"I should be going back now."

"I hope Liyue and Snezhnaya will take this as a lesson and maintain good relations with each other."

Little Ningguang's smiling demeanor made many people involuntarily grit their teeth, clench their fists, and feel humiliation filling their hearts.

This treaty was the first one signed between Snezhnaya and Liyue; no, it was the first unequal treaty signed since the founding of Snezhnaya.

But there was no way; a defeated nation has no right to refuse.

After Little Ningguang left, the entire hall fell into silence.

Many people slumped dejectedly onto stools or chairs, their expressions filled with confusion and fear.

The strength Liyue displayed at this moment truly made people feel despair.

Is this the ancient nation that has existed for thousands of years?

This caused everyone who had been constantly striving for this nation to fall into confusion.

Upholding the Tsaritsa's will, everyone in Snezhnaya had turned their bodies into fuel to drive the nation forward.

They were striving, they were running; they believed that under the Tsaritsa's leadership, they would one day accomplish that distant and unattainable thing.

To pull the one on the Sky Island down from the divine throne!

Yet, before they could even reach the Sky Island.

Liyue was like an insurmountable Great Mountain, forcibly cutting off their path.

At this moment, everyone seemed to have fallen into confusion.

Jiang Yan was like a true god; in an instant, he suppressed Snezhnaya's strongest Harbingers, and even the Tsaritsa had no power to resist.

At this moment, it was as if their confidence had been shattered by Jiang Yan.

Helplessness, despair.

At a loss.

"It's just an unequal treaty; are you already afraid?"

Just then, a faint female voice rang out from within the great hall.

Everyone turned to look in the direction from which the voice came.

And the speaker was none other than the Snezhnayan Harbinger, the one who signed the treaty with Tianquan.

Snezhnaya's Third Harbinger: The Girl.

At this moment, The Girl was completely unaffected by the treaty just signed.

Compared to the Harbinger Clown, who was shut down by defeat, the Tsaritsa filled with unwillingness and helplessness, and the dejected and confused Harbingers and officials, she was perhaps the only person present who remained relatively calm.
