Chapter 363: Concession
Dai Chunfeng's face changed and said: "Congratulations, bachelor, I accepted two beauties today." ”
Lu Xiangsheng saw his lewd smile and said angrily: "This is your purpose." ”
Dai Chunfeng said with a smile: "I can't ask how the bachelor is going to talk next, of course, I can only talk about others." ”
Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand and said, "You bring those two women back to your room, but you have to remember that since you want others, you must treat them well, and don't treat them as objects." You also know that this is the kind of thing that Your Majesty annoys the most, he said, men can be amorous, but not lewd, and not treating women as human beings is indecent. ”
Dai Chunfeng said with a smile: "Thank you for the bachelor's award." Don't worry, of course I, Dai Chunfeng, will not be a dirty person, but this barbarian woman has no concept of chastity at all, and it will be okay to give some money in the end. My own women, I'm all in the family, and I've never given up on it. ”
Lu Xiangsheng said: "You, everything is good, but this is really not good." ”
Dai Chunfeng said with a smile: "Yes, Your Majesty also said last time that my father named me Chunfeng, and it is indeed well deserved." His Majesty said that he wanted me to pay attention not to die on a woman's belly, and said that if he was my father, he would definitely name me Dai Li, so that the spring breeze and spring rain would not blow on my face and body. I said why did I take this name, it might as well be called wearing a raincoat. His Majesty said that the old farmers in the fields, wearing hats and raincoats, can't be blown in the wind and can't get drenched in the rain, so they can be called Dai Li, the word rain farmer. Your Majesty gave me a name, and I wanted to change it, but Your Majesty said that my father's name cannot be changed, but it is okay to give words, so I will be Dai Yunong in the future. ”
Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "I hope you can remember the meaning of the words given to you by Your Majesty, and pay less attention to women and cherish your body." ”
Dai Chunfeng said solemnly: "Thank you for the care of the bachelor, I will pay attention." I've seen ones too, but I really haven't seen a second one like me. His Majesty said that I was a disease, what is it called a sex addiction, and said that it would get better when I got older, but I should think less about this on weekdays, and I can resist it a little. ”
The next day, the negotiations continued, and Lu Xiangsheng did not let go of the compensation, but reduced the amount from 20 million taels to 19 million taels, and stated that this million taels was only small for the sake of the face of the Marquis of Ragus, and it could not be reduced again.
Marquis Ragus can only explain the difficulties of the Rakshasa people on the side, hoping that the Ming Dynasty can greatly reduce the compensation, and at the same time withdraw from the newly occupied place, Lu Xiangsheng naturally does not do it, either nine million admit that the Ming Dynasty occupied the Rakshasa place, or nineteen million let the Ming army return to the original territory.
Seeing that the next day's negotiations were about to end in failure, Lu Xiangsheng groaned and said, "If you really don't have enough silver, you can actually use other things to offset the silver." ”
Ragus was overjoyed and said, "What does the bachelor mean that something can be worth silver?" Is it wood? Is it fur? However, he immediately reacted that using wood and fur is actually no different from using silver, and it is not the same as selling fur and wood and giving silver, so Lu Xiangsheng should not be referring to this.
Sure enough, Lu Xiangsheng said: "You can sell wood and fur for silver, what is the difference between that and giving silver." We are going to build a railway to France, and the place where this railway passes is considered to be the place where we bought you, and we can compensate you accordingly according to the place we occupy. ”
Ragus thought, even if it is a thousand miles away, only a hundred paces wide, how large can it be in the end? So he said tentatively: "Can you draw a two-kilometer-wide place, which is under the jurisdiction of your Ming Dynasty, but allow us Rakshasa people to live nearby?" ”
Lu Xiangsheng smiled: "What do we want to do in such a wide place?" You've seen our railway, and the rails are only a few steps wide with sleepers, and a hundred steps is already a big place. You can help us build the railway, this can be counted. ”
Ragus said: "This is okay, we have a lot of people, as long as you can get the silver, you can as much as you want." ”
Lu Xiangsheng continued: "But what you just said about drawing a two-kilometer wide place next to the railway, I thought about this suggestion for a while, and I think it seems to be okay. But it's not a good idea to draw on the side of the road, and if you're willing to carve out a large chunk of space for us in the city through which the railroad passes, we can exchange ten times the amount of territory we've demarcated, and that should be worthy of you. But as you said, this place should be under the jurisdiction of our Ming people, and you Rakshasas can live in it, but the tax must be handed over to the Ming people. These places are temporarily rented by our Ming Dynasty, and they can be called concessions. ”
Ragus said: "Since it is rented, then of course you have to pay for it." Is it possible to redeem a portion of the silver? ”
Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "We exchanged ten times the land for the concession, and allowed the Rakshasas to live in the concession. You have the land, and you still want to get the money, do you think too well? ”
Ragus laughed and said: "It's because I want to fork it, of course I don't need money, but how long is the lease of the concession?" ”
Lu Xiangsheng said: "Let's rent it for two hundred years first." ”
"Two hundred years is too long, a hundred years at most. ”
Lu Xiangsheng said: "Okay, we don't have to pay you rent for a hundred years, and after a hundred years, we will hand over all the tax money we received from the Rakshasa people to you as rent, what do you think?" ”
Ragus thought about it for a while, and felt that the Rakshasa Kingdom did not suffer a loss in this matter, so he said: "I still have to ask His Majesty the Tsar for this matter, if His Majesty agrees, this is okay." It's just that even if it is calculated by ten times, we will give you a lot of concessions, and we do not have many cities in total, so it is not enough to allocate all the cities to you. ”
Lu Xiangsheng thought to himself, you finally thought of this question. He smiled and said, "If you don't think there's enough space in the city, then just give us some flat land near the city, so that we can build our own houses and recruit our own people, so that we won't occupy the space in your city." ”
Seeing that Lu Xiangsheng was so easy to speak, Ragus thought that the gift he had given really worked, so he smiled and asked, "Was the bachelor satisfied last night?" I'll send two more fresh items today. ”
Lu Xiangsheng was shocked: "Don't." ”
Raguschi said: "Don't want it, why is the bachelor so excited?" ”
Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: "I liked those two very much yesterday, so I won't trouble the marquis." ”
