Chapter 426: The Meeting of the Ten Mile Pavilion 2
PS: Thank you for the generous reward of 500 coins and 100 coins twice (owe one more first)! I ask you for more referral support, thank you!
"What ten million?" Li Qianshun was stunned, but he immediately understood that Lin Chong was asking for a fee of 10 million yuan.
Ten million, I'll go, you're poor and crazy! If you sell the party item, it's not worth 10 million yuan.
However, every year, we send a large number of officials to Tokyo, isn't it because of the annual gift of 500,000 guan, the whole country is like a treasure, and you are given 10 million guan, absolutely nothing.
As the emperor, Li Qianshun talked about the price and was embarrassed to bargain. But in order to express his anger, he still stood up and looked out of the pavilion, while at the same time sweeping the queen intentionally or unintentionally.
Yelu Nanxian comprehended, took Zhang Wan's hand and began to play the emotional card. One will say that the party is sparsely populated, the land is barren, and there is no one to live, and the other time it is exaggerated and sympathetic, and she is a good girl with a kind heart.
Zhang Wan couldn't help but say yes, and finally agreed to help me intercede with Lin Chong. Then he walked to Lin Chong's side and whispered, Lin Chong whispered in turn, and Zhang Wan nodded again and again.
Wait for Zhang Wan to run back and tell Yelu Nanxian, "It doesn't matter if you don't have money, you can use items to pay off your debts." As long as 10,000 war horses and 10 million catties of high-quality iron ore are handed over, it is equivalent to deducting 10 million yuan. ”
Yelu Nanxian frowned, Lin Chong bit too hard.
The party had no money, and 10 million yuan could not be obtained, and then the wolf army opened even worse conditions, military horses and iron ore. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that handing over these two items to the Wild Wolf Army will only make their strength go to the next level, and it is clearly to drink to quench their thirst.
However, does the party have the right not to agree? Obviously not, but I was unwilling to say yes.
"The number of items is huge, and it is difficult to get them together for a while, can I pay for it in two years?"
"Yes, but the number will be increased by 20%."
Li Qianshun calculated for a long time, and finally agreed to this plan, and the settlement was completed within two years. But then he asked, "When will your army return to its own defense area?" ”
Seeing that Li Qianshun succeeded in blackmailing, Lin Chong didn't want to force people too much, so he said happily.
"Since Your Majesty is so magnanimous, when you deliver the first amount of materials, we will hand over Pingqiao Town, and when all the materials are delivered, we will hand over Yanzhou to you."
This sounds like no problem, but it also means that the land from Pingqiao Bridge East to Dongkuo will be under Lin Chong's jurisdiction within two years. The variable coefficient is too high, but because Li Qianshun has too few chips in his hand, it is difficult to have room for bargaining.
After the final weighing, Li Qianshun still agreed to this condition very aggrievedly. After all, this time it is too much to keep Xingqing Mansion alive and regain lost ground two years later.
Of course, within two years, it is indeed painful to prepare 12,000 war horses and 24 million catties of iron ore. However, since he is still the emperor of the party, it would be good to catch some more slaves to raise horses and mine.
In the east, the territory of the wild wolf army could not be reached, only the Khitan in the north, the Tubo in the south, the Gaochang Uighurs in the west, and then Khorezm in the west. These guys are much more docile than the dragon-like wolf army.
Bite!
Li Qianshun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he had a new idea. So he approached Lin Chong and asked, "The general's achievements, put on top of the court, I'm afraid that he is going to be promoted to the king of the county, right?" ”
Well? This thing suddenly cares about his own reward, I'm afraid it's an attempt, but there's no need to deny it. "Then it is up to His Majesty's Chrysostom, if it can be so, the minister is grateful!"
Li Qianshun's eyes rolled around, as if he had something to say, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Lin Chong deliberately didn't answer, wanting to play tricks with me, to see if I didn't suffocate you.
Cai You was embarrassed, so he asked, "Your Majesty, but what else do you command?" ”
Li Qianshun no longer hesitated, and said, "It's not a secret, the party is not prosperous, but no one is bad at herding horses, mining, and farming. ”
"And then?" Cai You asked.
Li Qianshun smiled, "If your army can provide some military aid, the party will be able to obtain enough population, so that it is possible to complete the preparation of the materials required by your army." ”
Fortunately, I was thinking about when I would be able to make a big order for the military industry, but I didn't expect the business to come to the door.
Lin Chong poured a scoop of cold water on the past: "Why should I provide military aid?" The materials you have completed or failed to complete the agreement have nothing to do with us, right? ”
Li Qianshun was calm in his heart when he heard this, and this tone was clearly agreeing to military aid, but he needed a reason that could move him.
Well, for this guy who can't afford to be unprofitable, Li Qianshun already has a rough idea of his temperament.
The Uighurs of Gaochang and the Khitan did not share a border with the wolf army, and Li Qianshun did not want Lin Chong to interfere in the affairs of his rear, and Qingtang and Tubo were the only areas bordering both sides.
At the moment, the plateau is fratricidal and divided, nay, divided into thirty or forty forces of various sizes, fighting each other. If it weren't for the unique geographical conditions and dangerous checkpoints of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, there would have been no bones left that had been chewed by the Great Song Dynasty and Western Xia.
So he chose Qingtang, prepared to partner with Lin Chong to rob, and then sat on the ground to share the spoils.
"Qingtang and Tubo, borderless land, we can take it hand in hand, King Linjun, what do you think?"
Hey, this guy seems to have an open mind, and he actually knows the processing mode of incoming materials, which has a future.
Lin Chong pulled Cai You to sit down, "Your Majesty, Niangniang, we talked for a long time, and how about tasting a cup of tea soup from the Mansion first?" ”
Tea soup, isn't it just to take tea leaves and spices, meat, and fat to boil together, and party members who are a little rich must drink it every day. Even if you are the hometown of tea, you don't have to be mysterious, don't believe what is so strange about your Linfu tea soup?
Yelu Nanxian picked up and said, "It's so tiring. ”
With Dr. Lin Fu Tea coming up, the party attendants always supervised her, and performed a flowing tea art in front of the emperor and queen.
This is similar to the pious boiling tea, sifting tea, making tea, everyone who sees it is pleasing to the eye, until each person has a small cup of clear soup in front of them, only to take it and smell it, refreshed, taste a product, the sky is high and the clouds are light, it is really unheard of.
"I didn't expect to be able to appreciate such an elegant tea art of the Lin family today, and I really didn't know the taste of meat in March. The king of the county, very people, admires and admires. "Li Qianshun's biggest advantage is that he can correct his mistakes and is good at learning.
Yelu Nanxian also stroked her palms and encouraged, full of praise, she whispered to Zhang Wan, "Sister, you are really blessed!" In the future, when the dragon flies for nine days, I hope to be able to do more according to the Buddha's party items. ”
Zhang Wan smiled slightly, "Niangniang, you can't say this, if someone listens to it, my master will be indistinguishable." ”
Yelu Nanxian glanced at her, and couldn't help but quietly taste the tea soup, and sure enough, the aftertaste was timeless, and the tea was peerless.
