Chapter 911 – I Want Yuwen Kai
One word decided the life or death of someone.
The tragic outcome of Streamer showed how the Great Xia Dynasty had influence everywhere. Ouyang Shuo did not mobilize a single troop. He just opened his mouth, and he swallowed up one super guild.
Such actions were far more amazing than the Great Xia starting a war. Those who knew what went on were even more shocked, and they raised the danger level of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Just as Ouyang Shuo took control of Steamer, Gao Ying represented Great Sui to discuss terms. There were two core points; they were willing to pay two million gold and send Jin Prince Yang Guang over to Shanhai City.
Taking into consideration the face of Great Sui, the compensation fee was said to be the medical fee of Zhang Yi. Although this was an obvious lie, it was better than writing compensation money.
Gao Ying also expressed that if the Xia King was willing, the Great Sui would marry a princess over.
All the princesses of Great Sui that had appeared were married, but there were others who had not been revealed. If he could use a princess to buy stability for Great Sui, it would be really worth it to Emperor Wen.
Unfortunately, they were the only willing party. When Ouyang Shuo heard that, he laughed. Even Queen Kalia was rejected by him, much less a princess.
Due to the cooperation of Emperor Wen in crushing Streamer, Ouyang Shuo agreed to the two million gold compensation fee.
What they disagreed about was the hostage.
It was already the 4th year, 6th month of Gaia. No matter what consideration or what method he used, Great Xia had to take Quanzhou into their reign in the future year or two.
Hence, the hostage was useless. If Emperor Wen was present, a dead crown would not matter, much less a prince that he did not like.
Rather than let him be useless in Shanhai City, why not let him cause problems in Quanzhou? Emperor Wen had thought it through; he wanted to use Great Xia to remove Jin Prince.
Not only that, but Ouyang Shuo also asked Di Renjie to think of a way to reveal the matter to Yang Guang. In the future, it would be able to cause problems for Great Sui.
Ouyang Shuo told them that Great Xia did not need hostages. Instead, they wanted a civil servant. Ouyang Shuo wanted the architect of Daxing City, Yuwen Kai.
Daxing City, Guangtong Drainage, Renshou Palace, and such places were all designed by Yuwen Kai. Great Xia did not lack architectural geniuses, but they did lack ancient building architectural geniuses.
Great Sui only had one city, so there was not much room for him to show his skills. Great Xia did not even hesitate and agreed.
Ouyang Shuo wanted Gao Ying, Su Wei, and other such ministers, but Emperor Wen would not agree to it no matter what.
With that, both sides basically came to an agreement.
As for renewing the trade deal and Quanzhou Port opening up to the outside, they were all implied and no discussion was needed.
Di Renjie also had one more secret mission, which was to use number 15 to root out the other spies of Difeng in Quanzhou.
When the news spread, the Shanhai Guards would have a cat and mouse game in Quanzhou. Seeing that Great Sui was staring at Quanzhou, Ouyang Shuo did not dare to activate the Shanhai Guards in case they were exposed.
As for how to teach Yanhuang Alliance a lesson, Ouyang Shuo was still planning it. He wanted to give them a painful one. He had to let them know that he was not one that could be easily bullied.
…
7th month, 1st day, Quanzhou Palace.
The leader of the Great Xia ambassador team, Di Renjie, greeted Emperor Wen and handed over the Great Xia letter.
Before this, both sides had officially agreed to the terms. They would set up embassies in each imperial city as the contact point of the two dynasties.
The moment the news went out, the normal players were delighted that an internal conflict did not start in China.
Those on the forums even cheered that the Xia King had listened to their advice and that this was a victory of the people. In truth, it was just their wishful thinking.
Di Chen and the others were really disappointed as they had lost everything this time. As for Jun Yilao, who was the sacrifice of both sides, no one bothered about him.
That afternoon, they returned to Shanhai City.
Along with them was also Yuwen Kai, who Ouyang Shuo had selected.
“Yuwen Kai greets the king!”
Within the main hall, Yuwen Kai looked at his new king with a complicated expression.
Ouyang Shuo understood his feelings. Just after entering the wilderness, he was sold away by his master. No one would feel good about such a thing.
Luckily, the Great Xia Dynasty was really prosperous and would allow him to show his skills.

Specialty: Creation (raises artisan efficiency by 20%, raises construction speed of projects by 15%, raises architectural standards by 25%)
Evaluation: Yuwen Kai has rare ability. He comes from a family of generals and is really hard working. He read all types of books and understood many different things. He is a man of many talents.
Handling such an architectural talent, Ouyang Shuo immediately appointed him as the Construction Director, which was a secondary Grade 3 official.
The most important matter in front of him was to build the China Construction Group. He needed to separate the construction industry from the Construction Department.
Before this, Hao Jiancheng, who was holding the position, was like Sun Yannong. He was appointed as Zhaoqing Prefecture Governor.
At this point, the huge game between Great Xia and Great Sui had come to an end.
The only thing that Ouyang Shuo was worried about was Zhang Yi. Based on Zhang Zhongjing’s words, the poison was really vicious, and he had missed the best chance to cure it. As a result, the poison had already invaded Zhang Yi’s body.
Even if he was cured, Zhang Yi would probably feel pain every time it rained.
With that, Ouyang Shuo felt heartbroken for him.
The interests that Zhang Yi had earned for him with his health were something Ouyang Shuo would rather not have. However, since things had already happened, Ouyang Shuo could only accept it. His unhappiness toward Yanhuang Alliance grew.
************
Gulf of Aden, Somalia.
While Ouyang Shuo was meeting with Yuwen Kai, the Great Xia Navy Fleet Admiral Alvaro was leading the 4th and 5th divisions of the Atlantic Squadron. After spending close to a month, they had finally arrived in the Gulf of Aden through the Cape of Good Hope.
The moment the news went out, the entire Mediterranean was stunned.
A month ago, Friendship City was attacked by the Sky Wolf Pirate Organization. At that time, the leader of the pirates, Farrah, had successfully escaped. The Great Xia Dynasty had lost face as a result.
At this point, the Mediterranean Lords gloated. They used the trading negotiations as a chip to prevent the Atlantic Squadron from passing through the Mediterranean.
The negotiations had been postponed over and over; what an evil plan.
How would the Mediterranean Lords know that in just a month, things would change so much?
The appearance of the Atlantic Squadron in the Gulf of Aden not only meant the end of the Sky Wolf Pirate Organization, but it also meant that Great Xia had opened up another trade route.
With that, they lost a hugely important chip in their negotiations. When the negotiation team of Great Xia got the news, they were delighted. It was time for them to counter attack.
The most shocked party was the Somalia royal family.
One could see that the moment Farrah was caught, their relationship with him would be revealed. That time would be the end of Somalia.
To not cause problems for the whole world, the Great Xia Dynasty would not easily start wars without facts. However, if the Somalia Dynasty’s actions were revealed, he would have the evidence needed to take action.
The Great Xia Dynasty wiping out traitors was something outsiders best stay out of.
Obviously, the Great Xia Dynasty would not let such a good chance go.
A controlled Somalia province was better than one with bad intentions. The actions of some of their Lords had made Ouyang Shuo especially unhappy.
War was unavoidable.
Moreover, facing the strong Great Xia Dynasty, Somalia had no hopes of winning.
Although Somalia’s land size was greater than Morocco, half of it was desert, and they had a small population of no more than 800 thousand people.
Amongst which, only 100 thousand were combat occupation players.
Based on such a small number of men, the Great Xia Dynasty did not need to use too many troops. Just the Somalia Formation would be enough to settle the matter.
A day ago, Di Qing had already led the Somalia Formation to teleport to Friendship City.
At the beginning, to provide for the warships of the Mediterranean Squadron, Ouyang Shuo ordered them to build a shipyard in Friendship City. With that, the navy division in Somalia was settled.
With this division in place, the entire formation was functional.
Of course, for it to be totally formed, they still needed to be trained in battle. As Friendship City did not have any extra space, even if Di Qing wanted to conduct large scale training exercises, it was not possible.
The entire formation could only train drills in the barracks, making Di Qing really depressed. Di Qing was the one in the entire army that craved for war the most.
As a result, when they got the news, the Somalia King panicked. He immediately sent someone out to sea to try to find Farrah. The king wanted him killed before the Atlantic Squadron found him.
The two of them had kept close contact, so the Somalia King felt confident about finding him.
How would the Somalia King know that the entire palace was monitored by the Black Snake Guards? The moment their force entered the waters, the Atlantic Squadron was informed.
