Nanliang, Military Camp.
The Eldest Prince of Beimo returned to Beimo after receiving the marriage document and discussing the matter of grain and grass.
This time, accompanying him to the border was a minister from Beimo, who was discussing the matter of grain and grass with Nanliang.
The intention of Beimo was to see if it could be delayed, as the national treasury was empty; thirty thousand dan of grain and grass and one hundred thousand taels of gold could be paid off over three years.
Beimo's attitude was more flexible than before; previously, they had insisted on a ten-year repayment without budging.
Now changing it to three years was already a significant concession.
Yet even so, Nanliang did not concede a single step.
Nanliang had no hesitation in lending troops to the Cheng King of Beimo, so why was Beimo so haggling over paying for grain and grass? This angered the ministers who came to discuss the matter on Beimo's behalf, their faces turning red.
