Chapter XXXIII Requests

"But Dashuai, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not?" Xue Rengui asked cautiously.

Seeing Xue Rengui's somewhat timid appearance, Li Shen smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it, although you and I have known each other for a relatively short time, there is no need to be so polite." ”

"That's what the handsome man is like now...... You know that, and I don't feel the need to train those people. ”

Li Shen shook his head with a smile and said: "Some things are not what you think, although the situation is much better for me now, but things in the world are uncertain, you have to have your own henchmen to be more stable, and your heart can be a little more stable, it is much better than not having no manpower to deal with things." ”

Xue Rengui nodded, and said with some embarrassment: "It's the last general's inconsiderate consideration." ”

"It's okay, you're also running around for a few days, go down and take a hot shower, take a rest, and I'll have someone call you when it's time for dinner."

"The last will be retired." Xue Rengui stood up and said.

In the evening, Li Shen had just laid down when the door of the house was pushed open.

Li Shen looked at Li Chongyi, who had a hippie smile, and said, "Li Chongyi, don't you know how to knock on the door when you come in?" ”

"Brother, tell you a good news, after these days of hard work, I finally got that what Pu and what, I got him done, he said that he would give me an answer in three days at most, but I didn't use the name of the court, but in the name of the whole army to say this matter." Li Chongyi said proudly.

Li Shen nodded and said, "He agreed?" ”

"Can you not agree, that grandson almost cried, it won't take more than ten days for the armies of Goryeo and Baekje to hit their lair, and if you don't agree, you can only wait for destruction, I can see the plan of these grandsons of Goryeo, and want to destroy Silla directly, this is all destroyed, and we won't be able to say anything at that time, and they won't have enough reason to go on an expedition."

"Alright, I'm going to sleep, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Li Shen said lightly.

"Brother, I still haven't finished speaking."

Looking at Li Chongyi, who was pouting, Li Shen shook his head helplessly, and said, "Say~~~"

"Brother, do you know how much money I asked for this time to come back?"

"How much?"

Seeing Li Chongyi raise a finger, Li Shen asked in some surprise, "You won't ask for 10 million yuan, right?" Does he Silla have so much money? ”

Li Chongyi nodded proudly and said, "Where does he have so many copper coins in Silla, but he can use other things as collateral!" It's just a thousand, it's a small meaning, they have been building Silla for so many years, and they can still get this little thing, but that kid can't be the master, and said that he would ask them about the king, so he said that he would wait for two days. Brother, I have made a great contribution this time, you have to write it down for me in the military industry book. ”

"Did he say when he sent this thing?"

"He said that if their king agreed, he would send it in batches, but I asked for at least half of it, or else I would not talk about it." Li Chongyi replied.

Li Shen looked at Li Chongyi with a little surprise, and said with a smile: "Yes, this time things were done beautifully." Alright, don't be shy, go back to sleep. ”

"Brother, you don't praise me a few times."

"Alright, go back to sleep, I'm really sleepy."

Li Shen also knew that this matter was very embarrassing, because he couldn't tolerate Silla having to agree to their unreasonable demands, unless he waited for destruction, he didn't expect that Li Chongyi, this guy would be even darker than him, and directly doubled the price he had planned, which was equal to one-third of Datang's annual tax revenue, which was fully able to support the consumption of this campaign.

Li Shen estimated that if the war was resolved quickly, the cost of this war would be about two million, and if it was delayed, this 10 million would not be enough, but there was no way, if the requirements were too high, they would not be able to pay, and there was no way to do it.

Originally, Li Shen also wanted to open his mouth to ask for tens of millions of yuan, even if Silla agreed, but he couldn't come up with such money for a while, and according to the personality of His Majesty Li Er's great joy, once Goryeo was destroyed, it is estimated that the king of Silla ran over and patted the horses, and then cried a few times to be poor, I am afraid that I will not be able to pay a penny by then, and finally I will have to subsidize them with things.

The next day, Li Shen got up late, and when he opened the door of the room, he saw that the dark three guards were outside.

"Childe, that Silla surnamed Park has something to do with you."

"Did you say anything?" Li Shen frowned slightly and asked, didn't this guy tell him, it didn't have the slightest effect to look for him, why did he still run over?

I shook my head.

"I wonder what Lord Park is visiting today?" Li Shen entered the hall and asked with a smile, looking at Park Chung-hee, who had dark circles under his eyes and a haggard face, he paused slightly, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with Lord Park?" Why is it so emaciated. ”

"I've seen the big handsome."

"There's no need to be so polite, sit down, is there something to come to find Ben Shuai today? As long as Ben Shuai can help, Ben Shuai is defined. ”

"Dashuai, the lower official has a reluctant request, I hope Dashuai can help."

"Say it."

"Dashuai probably has also heard about this, that is, this time the Lord of the Chincha asked me for the cost of this expedition, which has not been in the Central Plains since ancient times, this is not to mention, but for a while, my Silla can't afford to scrape together five million pieces of wealth, Dashuai, see if we can pay some for the time being, and wait for the solution of my Silla crisis, even if my Silla people smash pots and sell iron, my Silla will also pay back the money."

Li Shen sneered in his heart and said, "Oh, is it? I also heard from the soldiers about this matter, these days, Lord Qincha goes out early and returns late every day, and he has not met his face, and the soldiers in the entire military camp know about this matter, how much money did he want? ”

"10 million yuan, even if I Silla smashes the pot and sells iron, it will be difficult to gather so much money for a while." Park Chung-hee said with a bitter face.

"Do you want to pay five million guan first?" Li Shen looked at Park Chung-hee and nodded, and then said, "How much have you raised now?" ”

"Almost two million times."

"There are a lot of gaps, this matter is really difficult for the commander, the key matter is that the officers and soldiers in the army know, if the commander goes to say it, then the generals and soldiers in the army will think that the commander has received your benefits, and I am afraid that it will really cause a mutiny among the soldiers at that time, after all, Lord Qincha said that all the money is used for the rewards of the soldiers on this expedition and the expenses of the expedition." Li Shen said with a look of embarrassment.

"Da Shuai~~~" Park Chung-hee shouted with a sad face.

Li Shen sighed and said: "Ben Shuai is just appreciated by His Majesty, Lord Qin Cha is a member of the royal family, Ben Shuai has no way to take him, besides, he is also here to supervise the army." However, Ben Shuai can say that whether it can be done or not, Ben Shuai does not dare to guarantee. ”

"Thank you Dashuai, thank you Dashuai, whether it succeeds or not, this kindness is remembered."
