Chapter 287: Qi Zhu's counteroffer
Beside Mingxi, the arcing secretary was a little anxious. If they didn't have electric lights, these people could take a large amount of supplies with them by paying a few hundred young men. It's a lot of money. These things are more than the price they exchanged in the West. Even if you don't use it yourself, you can make a lot of money if you change hands. How does this work?
He secretly touched Mingyu and asked Mingyu to stop them.
Mingyu was knocking on the table, and Ren Qizhu and Huanye were discussing in front of him.
When the two of them were almost finished, Mingyu said, "If you trade electric lights, we can get Huang Hu to be imprisoned in the city." Recently, there has been an epidemic outside the city. Many of the stone diggers have fallen ill and died. We have enough medicine in the city to make the yellow tiger relatively safe. ”
In tribal times, epidemics were a foreign term. Because there is basically no such thing in this era. The distance of human habitation makes it difficult for an epidemic to spread. Before the breeding of large numbers of livestock, many viruses transmitted by animals were difficult to reach the population. The emergence of Chaolin City and the establishment of Huaxia may have become a hotbed for epidemics. Lin Ji's vigorous development of medicine is also to prevent the emergence of large-scale epidemics.
Naturally, the people of Chaling will not understand these truths. After Mingyu spent half an hour explaining to them, these people saw the epidemic as a demon that would eat people, and the eyes of the people around them were different. It's as if whoever comes out of a devil will eat himself.
Mingyu said: "Our king knows some ways to prevent these diseases, such as washing hands frequently, eating cooked food, boiling water and drinking, etc. This can be done in Chaolin City, but it is difficult to do it in the place where the stones are dug. If you had bought this lamp, we would have locked the Yellow Tiger in the city, and we wouldn't have to do the hard work of digging rocks. ”
In fact, as long as it is confirmed that Huang Hu is the purple pupil, he can even threaten the people of Chaling without even having to find out. After Mingyu said this, Qi Zhu and Huanye looked at each other and began to mutter. The other Chaling people were also somewhat moved.
Seeing this, Ming Yu continued: "Although these people look like a lot, you know that my Huaxia goods have always been worth the money. This electric lamp is a magic lamp that does not burn grass and trees. After a long time, people will become smarter. I was able to create so many goods in Chaolin City, and this magic lamp contributed a lot. When you use it, you'll get smarter. ”
There is still a basis for Mingling's words. Lin Ji said that the use of fire has made humans smarter. Minghui thinks that this kind of electric light is much brighter than fire, and it should make people smarter. At least after doing this once, the people of Chaling should not let their leader stupidly crash into someone else's territory.
The people of Chaling continued to hesitate.
Mingjun continued: "I know that it is not easy for you to come out with so many young people. So we specially asked the king for an installment payment plan, that is, you take the goods back first, and you can pay us in half a year. You can pay a portion of it all at once. You don't have to take your own people out, but the wild ones you have captured will be healthy as long as they are healthy. If you pay a portion of the month, you will pay an average of ...... per month 452 pcs. ”
Mingyu skillfully divided the calculations representing various quantities and quickly gave the answer.
This number is much easier to accept than the more than 2,000. Huanye was greatly moved, and looked at Qi Zhu again, only to find that Qi Zhu tilted his head and seemed to be in deep thought.
Mingyong knocked on the table to pull Ki Zhu back to reality. The latter's eyes brightly came back to his senses, and he said to Mingyu: "I have a plan, which is definitely better than the price you said." ”
When this plan was spoken, Mingyu and the others immediately fell into a dilemma.
At this moment, Lin Ji was in his office discussing the defense plan for the west with Po Tu. With the destruction of the Ten Tribes in the east, there is no longer a strong enemy in the east, and the defense line can be moved to the west to guard against the Chaling tribe. At this time, they locked the leader of Chaling in prison, so naturally they couldn't help but guard against the Chaling people.
The two were discussing the deployment of personnel from all walks of life, and Hu Yi'er suddenly broke in. Po Tu saw that Hu Yi'er had sweat on his forehead, a bow on his back, and his steps were wide, so he put away his own things on the table and immediately said goodbye. If nothing else, this place will become a battlefield, and it is better for him not to interfere, otherwise Qiao Huan will have to clean him up when he goes back.
The door closed behind Hu Yi'er, and Lin Ji couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart. Sometimes women mess around, which is definitely more of a headache than reading a boring book. Lin Ji also had to step into the ranks of being afraid of his wife.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ji tried to keep his attitude calm and soft. At the same time, I thought about what I was doing wrong. This woman is not home all day long, and it is obvious that the sudden appearance here is definitely not a good thing. But Lin Ji himself feels that he has been keeping to himself all the time recently, and he hasn't done anything excessive. As for the one in Hong'an County, the two of them have always had a tacit understanding, so they won't be like this all of a sudden, right?
"I heard that the king is getting married again?" Hu Yi'er showed a rather charming smile, as if asking about an unrelated person's family. But that word is enough to punish the heart.
Seeing this smile, Lin Ji knew that today's matter was difficult, and hurriedly mobilized all his mind to deal with the scene in front of him: "Why did the queen say this? ”
He pulled out the paper towel on the table and stood up, carefully wiped Hu Yi'er's sweat, and by the way, he gently unloaded Hu Yi'er's bow and arrows, put them aside and kicked them under the table. With an innocent expression on his face, he hugged the queen into his arms.
He really couldn't understand where this pot flew from. The time for the person in Hong'an County has not arrived, and it stands to reason that he will not release the news himself. Others, there are people outside every day who say that they want to marry into the palace, but if Hu Yi'er even cares about these...... She should have gotten used to it.
So, what went wrong? Is it the letter to the person in Hong'an County that has been exposed? Or is there some conspiracy that has annoyed him? Or is there someone who sows discord?
Lin Ji couldn't figure it out, so he could only hug Hu Yi'er and say all kinds of love words that he was numb.
After a long time, Hu Yi'er relaxed from her anger and said, "That woman king in Chaling really doesn't think about it? I glanced at it from afar, and apart from the scary eyeballs, the rest ...... It's no worse than the little people on your computer. ”
Lin Ji wondered, "Didn't I let them slaughter them properly?" How did you come up with such a thing? Tell me what's going on, how did they get to this point? ”
Hu Yi'er said: "She said that she is willing to marry you according to the customs of Huaxia." Just hope to exchange those goods. I think it's a good thing, if you take her in, I'm afraid that it won't be long before Chaling will become a part of the kingdom like my tiger or a deer. ”
"What kind of mess?" Lin Ji finally understood the general idea, and immediately jumped up.
This wild woman wants to be beautiful, so that she has countless goods for nothing, not to mention, but also keeps giving more benefits to the people of Chaling. Lin Ji became quite angry. Hu Yi'er could think that marrying this wild woman could bring her relationship closer to Chaling, and other high-level executives might not think so. Lin Ji seems to have returned to the time when he first came, feeling the fear of being exchanged.
He walked around the office twice, wrote a note and handed it to the secretary outside, and then slammed the door shut: "I have something to talk about with the queen, so don't disturb me." All arrangements cancelled! ”
"You rejected her?" Hu Yi'er asked.
"Wild woman whimsical, where do you have to be in such a hurry. She can't even compare to one of your fingers, what are you afraid of? Lin Ji regained his composure and continued to comfort Hu Yi'er.
After listening to the love words, Hu Yi'er became soft and began to get tired of Lin Ji. Although the two of them lived in the palace, because there were many people in the palace, they did not make too much affection outside the room. At this time in the office, it made her become a little excited.
"What about the one in Hong'an County?" At a certain moment, Hu Yi'er thought of something, and still couldn't stop asking.
Lin Ji had to keep her mouth shut for a long time.
Outside the office, the secretary stood far away from the door, and Fa Arc and Ming Yu stood in front of the secretary.
The two of them were at a loss for what to do with a note written by Lin Ji: "From tomorrow, the price of external metal tools will be doubled." Forest trails. ”
