"The Great Qin Emperor is right, your Arab Empire is insatiable, you snatched a large piece of land from my Byzantium, you must return it to us!" Cronus is very clever, wanting to use the power of the Great Qin to force the Arab Empire to spit out the land snatched before.

This immediately put the Arab Empire on the fire.

Old Li saw that it was not good; how could the four-nation alliance start internal strife in front of Qin Mu?

He hurriedly persuaded.

"Prince, don't be anxious, I believe the Arab Empire will definitely give you an explanation."

"What we are talking about now is the matter between our four countries and the Great Qin."

"As for the matter between you, let's talk about it slowly after we go back, okay?"

Cronus was unmoved.

Byzantium and the Great Qin have no direct conflict, what is there to talk about?

On the contrary, this is the opportunity to easily ask for the lost territory back; missing it would be a fool!

"Our country agrees to strengthen trade, but to cooperate, we must at least solve the previous problems. As long as the Arab Empire agrees to return the snatched land to my Byzantium."

"We can talk about doing business immediately."

This made the scene fall into a stalemate.

How could Muhammad agree to return the land to Byzantium Wu Li Ke this.

The land of the Arab Empire was all snatched.

If it all had to be returned to others piece by piece, then what territory would their Arab Empire have left?

"Cronus, don't be unreasonable!"

"Damascus voluntarily turned to my Arab Empire!"

"Speaking of which, hasn't your Byzantium snatched other countries' land?"

Cronus was so angry that his eyes widened and his beard trembled.

But he didn't know how to refute?

This is the scar on Byzantium's heart.

The people of Damascus were unwilling to obey the rule of Byzantium. When the two countries were at war and fighting fiercely, they completely turned to the Arab Empire.

Precisely because of this, it made Byzantium especially upset.

The envoys of the two countries went back and forth, and they started arguing in the Great Qin imperial court.

Qin Mu's face kept a faint smile, and he didn't interfere.

It was as if he was watching a play, leaning on the dragon chair, silently appreciating.

This made Old Li on the side anxious.

If the four-nation alliance started internal strife the first time they faced the Great Qin, what would happen in the future?

"Both of you, stop arguing!"

"It's just a piece of land, don't keep your eyes on that place!"

"There are so many ownerless wastelands in the world waiting for you to conquer!"

"Look at Kievan Rus, the weakest national strength, but the largest territory!"

"Don't you have any realization?"

As soon as Old Li said this, the three allied countries were unhappy.

The Kievan Rus envoy spoke for the first time.

"What do you mean by weakest national strength and largest territory?"

"We Kievan Rus have too few people and can't beat you. But our people are very brave and very tough." Although Old Li's words were annoying, they also made sense.

Muhammad and Cronus stopped arguing.

They knew that arguing Wu Li Ke this would never end, so it was better to save some energy.

Old Li saw that although his words annoyed Kievan Rus, they also worked.

He hurriedly made up for it.

"Compared to the Great Qin, our four countries are very weak, which we all see."

"Now we should put down past prejudices and talk more about business, which is the correct way to common prosperity!"

Muhammad nodded in approval.

Although Cronus was still a bit unwilling, no one helped him, so he couldn't get back the lost territory from the Arab Empire.

Of course, talking to the Great Qin is also necessary; this is also very important!

"Great Qin Emperor, I hope the Great Qin can open up the export of high-quality ironware."

"Our Byzantine farmers really need the Great Qin's high-quality farm tools!"

Everyone knows that farm tools are just an excuse; Byzantium's real purpose is to get the Great Qin's high-quality ironware.

The other three countries were not ambiguous and asked together.

After all, high-quality ironware belongs to strategic materials and can quickly enhance military strength, who doesn't want it?

Qin Mu laughed.

He watched the play for half a day just now, but unfortunately, these countries didn't fight.

However, Qin Mu saw the contradictions between them clearly.

"The Great Qin's high-quality ironware is not enough to use, after all, this kind of high-end goods is very troublesome to smelt."

"But we can consider selling a portion to countries with close relations."

"Among your four countries, only Byzantium has no disputes with the Great Qin."

"I can consider selling a portion of high-quality ironware to Byzantium first!"

As soon as these words came out, there was another commotion below.

Why?

Arab prophet Muhammad's face sank immediately.

At present, Byzantium's strength is slightly inferior to the Arab Empire.

But if they get the Great Qin's high-quality ironware, it's hard to say later.

This move by the Great Qin has added huge invisible pressure to the Arab Empire!

Old Li also felt a bit sour in his heart.

The Great Qin would rather sell high-quality ironware to Byzantium than to the Great Tang.

He thought that the Great Tang had asked for cooperation with such a low profile, and should have a good relationship with the Great Qin.

But he was still excluded by Qin Mu as an enemy.

Sad!

Just as Li Er was feeling despondent, Fang Fang Xuanling gently nudged him from the side.

Turning his head, he heard Fang Fang Xuanling whisper quietly into his ear.

"This is the Great Qin's scheme to sow discord!"

Li Er suddenly came to his senses.

Qin Mu had done this on purpose!

He had deliberately brought out the benefits to attract everyone's attention, and then openly bestowed those benefits upon Byzantium.

The goal was to make them feel unbalanced, thereby achieving the purpose of splitting and dismantling the four-nation alliance.

How truly insidious!

This strategy sounded simple, yet it was something they could not resist.

After all, Byzantium had truly and tangibly received the benefits given by the Great Qin.

How could the other three nations not be jealous and envious?

Unless Byzantium voluntarily spat it out and shared the profits equally with the other three nations.

But, was that even possible?

Li Er looked at Kronos and saw that he was already flushed with excitement, a smile spreading across his face involuntarily.

"I thank the Emperor of the Great Qin for his generosity!

On behalf of the farmers of Byzantium, I extend my highest respects to the Great Qin!"

On the surface, they were talking about farm tools, but everyone understood that with a little forging, these things would become high-quality weapons.

Li Er looked at Moke Mo again and saw that his expression was very poor.

He had no choice but to force himself to step forward and speak up.
