Chapter 124 Friends Come with Wine, Jackals Come with Shotguns
As soon as Chen Yujie opened it, he instantly changed to an expression of his chin smashing on the ground......
"You are unsurpassed!"
He exclaimed.
Yang Tongzhi does not know how to smuggle, how can a person like him who abides by the law and is loyal to the country do such a thing as smuggling?
He was granted permission by Wanli to do exports, and Wanli also granted him permission not to pay any taxes for three years, and these taxes were used to subsidize his investment in digging a horse factory and reducing the river. After all, Wanli has not yet reached the point of being old and confused, and he also knows that it is a bit too much to let Yang Qing pay for this by himself, and if such a river wants to be dug up, it will have to start with 200,000 taels.
He wanted to use that place to tie Yang Qing up and make him a firefighter, not to trick Yang Qing into making this guy bankrupt.
He must be compensated.
Since Yang Qing wants the right to export trade, he will give it to him.
Tax exemption for another three years.
There is not much tax revenue in Liaodong!
At least Wanli according to the figures given to him by the various passes over the years, the taxes brought to him by the passes along the eastern border wall of Liaodong every year are not worth mentioning, although he also knows that in fact, the real benefits are divided among the officials up and down step by step, but the money could not have reached him.
Then it's good to be a favor.
He gave Yang Qing privileges, and Yang Qing grabbed more from these tigers, leopards and jackals if he had the ability, and if he didn't have the ability, it was none of his business.
In short, Yang Qing has the right to export trade.
And it's tax-free.
The holy decree is here, not to mention a small role like Zhu Shichang, even if Xiong Tingbi comes, he has no right to stop it, but in this case......
"Why don't you just take it out?"
Chen Yujie said suspiciously.
At this time, the boat under their feet was already offshore, and the unlucky Zhu Shichang had already woken up, howling like crazy there, and a few soldiers next to him were still picking the mud from his ears. Poor General Zhu became a complete joke, whether it was his own soldiers or the shipwrights on the ship, they all looked at him strangely, looking at this one of the top families in Liaoyang, who was originally a guy who stomped his feet and trembled. This face is too ferocious, Zhu Shen will have the image of his head being inserted into the mud by others into the memory of these people can not erase it, what Liaodong family of more than ten generations of land snakes, in front of Yang Tongzhi are all scum under their feet!
"Because I want to watch the play, I want to see how far these big families in Liaodong can do for silver, and I want to see where the bottom line of their work is!"
Yang Qing said.
"Do you think he'll borrow the hand of Jiannu?"
Chen Yujie said in amazement.
"But it's entirely possible, the Zhu family is the hereditary Dingliao avant-garde commander, from the time of Taizu to the present, the Zhu family is the core family of Liaodong, to say that he has a connection with wild boar skin, it is not necessary to say that it is possible but absolute."
He went on to say.
Of course, he didn't know that in the original history, Liaoyang fell, and Zhu Shichang did not hesitate to lead the family to surrender to Jiannu.
It was also listed in the Second Minister's Directory.
"So, let's wait to see the show!"
Yang Qing said.
In this way, in the hysterical howl of General Zhu on the bank of the Sancha River, their fleet began its voyage north to Kaiyuan, and then passed through Dongchang Fort, and slowly sailed out of the actual control area of the Ming Dynasty and entered the vast grassland belonging to the Mongolian herdsmen. Immediately after that, wandering herders appeared on the shore, silently watching the fleet of boats riding the wind in the hundreds of meters wide of the river, and then disappearing into the vast greenery. In the evening of the next day, when the fleet docked at the shore and gathered intensively to prepare for the night, a large number of cavalry appeared on the shore and rode straight to Yang Qing's boat.
"In what capacity are you here?"
Yang Qing stood at the bow of the boat and said.
"What do you mean?"
Oba Daiqing said.
"If you come as a friend, then Yang will treat each other with fine wine, if you come as a jackal, then Yang will only treat him with a shotgun!"
Yang Qing said.
Immediately after that, he inserted his Green Dragon Glaive Knife into a special base at the bow of the ship, and Oba Daiqing sat on his horse, looking at him quietly, and also at the familiar Green Dragon Glaive Knife......
"I'm still a friend!"
He said.
"Then please!"
Yang Qing made a gesture of invitation and said.
"Tell the boat behind to bring some wine and sugar to the Mongolian brothers on the shore!"
He then said to the sailors.
Soon he sat down at the wine table with Obadeiqing, who had boarded the ship.
"I don't want to say much about the meaning of Kaiyuan City."
Yang Qing said as he poured wine.
"What I want to tell you is very simple, the wild boar skin has ended the Korean War, not only has he captured a large amount of grain to sustain it, but also collected tens of thousands of Korean coats, captured a large number of artillery, and it will not be long before he will return to Yehe City, this time Kim Tae-gil may be difficult to stop. After he falls, then you are next, we must keep Jintaiji, and to keep Jintaiji, we must rebuild Kaiyuan, but the cities north of Shenyang have been abandoned, and the military transportation to Kaiyuan must go through the Liao River.
I've already taken this job.
I hired these ships, and I will pay for the loss of the cargo on board.
But I can't follow every time, and Xiong Jinglu can't send troops to escort me, so I need someone to help me protect these goods.
It's up to you to protect. ”
He went on to say.
"And what do we get?"
Obadeiqing said.
"Everything you want, tea, silk, salt, ironware, grain, all the materials sent to Kaiyuan will include what you need, Xiong Tingbi will pay me the freight according to the number of ships that arrive, then we will share this freight, half of the family, but I will exchange this half for what you need to give you. In addition, your herdsmen can trade with us on their own, and when our fleet stops every evening, your herdsmen can buy whatever they need.
We changed the mutual markets of each pass to this Liao River.
Not only you, but other ministries can also trade directly with the fleet.
As for what you pay, it is naturally still horses and cattle and sheep, and cattle are my most welcome, if you use cattle to pay, then I give a bag of sugar for each cow, and I add an extra bag for each cow, but there is no discount for sheep. ”
Yang Qing said.
He needs to plough the oxen, and the Mongolian cattle can plow the fields as well.
Although he needs buffalo more, he will not only cultivate paddy fields next, in short, he prefers cattle to horses, and he will not be limited to a reclamation area in Tianjin, after all, if the north grows sweet potatoes or corn, then there are countless lands waiting to be cultivated, you must know that the greatest value of these two is not the yield, but that they are drought-tolerant, and can make use of the land that cannot be cultivated in the northern mountainous areas.
That's where they come in.
Once the barren mountains and mountains in the north are turned into farmland, then even the Taihang Mountains and Yimeng Mountains can support countless people.
"Can you sell us firearms?"
Obadeiqing asked tentatively.
"Yes, there's nothing you can't do, I said, as long as you are willing to be my friends, then I will treat you as real friends, since you are friends, there is nothing that cannot be sold, but the cannon is definitely not good, it's not that I don't want to sell it to you, but this thing is really strict with the imperial court."
Yang Qing said.
Monk Lingqin not only has muskets, but also cannons, and in the end it is not the same as being hacked to death by a peasant, Mongolian herdsmen have muskets is not terrible, in fact, after owning muskets, the Mongolian tribes, in the end, become those Bali Bridge who are described by the lobster soldiers as shooting arrows without lethal power. Even if they had the last glory of Ge Erdan after having a musket, it became something that even the Green Battalion could not beat, and it was the Green Battalion that the Qing army was the first to rush into Ge Erdan's camel city in the Battle of Ulan Butong.
That's the late stage of Brother Ma!
The most terrifying thing about the steppe herders is that they can also pull the hard bow.
When they are accustomed to using muskets, but they can't pull away the hard bow, they are no threat, because that kind of strong and tenacious character is accompanied by their hard bows, the use of muskets by agricultural peoples represents the progress from agricultural civilization to industrial civilization, and the use of muskets by nomads represents the degradation from fierce barbarians to weak chickens. As they got used to raising their muskets and shooting their prey with little effort, their personalities changed little by little, and they used to need to pull the hard bow to keep their physique in the strongest possible condition.
If they can't do that, they will be eliminated by the steppe.
But muskets don't need to.
Then they will find that they don't have to live so tired.
Then they said goodbye to ferocity day by day, farewell to wildness, and finally let alone bending the bow and shooting eagles, that is, they have no hand-to-hand combat ability, because they don't need it, what else do they need to do with muskets? But they forgot that they didn't know how to make muskets at all, and that they didn't have the ability to develop technology, and in the end they didn't have the ferocity they were proud of, and they couldn't continue to develop on this path that didn't belong to them.
That's why I had to go and be able to sing and dance.
Oba Daiqing didn't know that the guy in front of him had already seen the future after they had the musket, so he didn't care about this kind of thing at all, and he thought how much Yang Qing trusted him.
He looked at Yang Qing with some emotion.
This man did regard them as friends, a true brother.
"Plus, I'm going to give you an even bigger gift."
Yang Qing said.
Obadeiqing waited.
"I want to build a temple for you, just in the area of Lao Mi Wan, the last time I saw the monk you saw there is very respect, if he does not have a place to worship the Buddha, I am willing to build a temple for him in the west of Lao Mi Wan Diao Ji Mountain, and it is also convenient for the nearby Mongolian brothers to worship the Buddha. If you are interested, you may wish to gather all the other Noyan tribes on my behalf, and we will join the alliance with Jintaiji's uncle and nephew in Qingyun Castle, and ask this senior monk to preside over the alliance. ”
Yang Qing said.
It's not just Oba Daiqing, even Chen Yujie was stunned at this moment
