Chapter 399: Emperor Suiko's Request

Anton's Grand Protectorate, Council Chamber.

Yuangai Suwen, Emperor Tuigu, and Da Niu, each brought a large group of Wenchen who looked like they were scheming, probably acting as staff officers and other roles, only Qin Hao didn't bring anyone, only a clerk was taking meeting minutes.

They knew that Qin Hao must have made such a big move, but to be honest, they were all confused about what was going on, although there were also general guesses, but as soon as things in the world met Qin Hao, they all became uncertain. Who in the world dares to say that he can understand his mind.

Qin Hao saw everyone: "Okay, everyone is here, today we have a formal meeting, this conference, the purpose of which is to reduce unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings through friendly exchanges and cooperation, and at the same time, rich countries and rich people let the people live a good life, so that the treasury of all countries is abundant, everyone is good neighbors, the people know that neighbors are harmonious and help each other, and the days will get better and better. ”

As he spoke, he also glanced at Yuan Gai Suwen intentionally or unintentionally.

Yuangai Suwen expressed his position very sensitively, saying that he would definitely be a loyal lackey of the Tang Dynasty honestly in the future, and this well-behaved attitude made Qin Hao very satisfied.

In fact, Yuangai Suwen himself didn't find out that the Goryeo traitor had been working for a long time, as he relied on the Tang Dynasty more and more, the more good things he said, and the more he killed the Fuyu righteous and the old guys and old brothers, the more he himself became more and more like a real Goryeo traitor, the bottom line of this thing, if you break through once, there will be a second time, and sooner or later you will break through to the end.

Qin Hao continued: "The meaning of the Tang Dynasty is very simple, we are now, there are many sea vessels, it is easy to do business with each other, it is good for everyone, at present, there is trade between several countries, but they are all spontaneous acts of some people, if our court can do this, then the scale will naturally not be the same, and the court can also implement the court monopoly on some special items, greatly increase the income of the court, you say yes." ”

Emperor Tuigu praised at the right time: "But we don't have a boat, the sea is high and the waves are strong, and the ships that I can use to sail in Dongying only have more than 100 small boats, not to mention how many goods can be loaded, and they are easy to capsize." ”

Da Niu said: "The situation in my Silla is better, especially in the concession, there are all kinds of ships, in fact, the trade between the three countries now mainly depends on the Tang people in our Silla concession." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Da Niu saw Qin Hao's knife-like gaze sweeping over, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head and drank tea.

Qin Hao smiled and said to Emperor Tuigu, "Datang and Dongying are brothers, Dongying has been a tribute to my Datang for the past year, my Datang will naturally support each other and move forward together, Dongying's business is Datang's business, these businesses can be uniformly dispatched and deployed by Datang, Tuigu Emperor, among us, you are the eldest, tell me first, what do Dongying want most?" ”

Emperor Tuigu said with a smile: "In front of the Duke of Rong Guo of the Tang Dynasty, how dare you call the emperor, this is the ignorance of the predecessors of the country, ignorant and ignorant, do not know the greatness of the world, passed to me, it has been more than 30 generations, it is a habit to call it for a while, and it is not easy to change, if the Duke of Rong Guo can afford it, just like the two countries, also call it a queen." ”

"Queen Tuigu is polite."

Emperor Tuigu was not angry, but said: "We are in the east, the country is small, the people are weak, and the materials are poor, and we are fortunate to be able to sit here with you today, just because there is silver on the island, but what?" Although we have silver, we can't smelt it, let alone ship it out, and you Tang merchants are now spreading it that if you just transport a shipload of tattered to Dongying, you can transport a shipload of silver ore home. ”

Qin Hao was a little ashamed and said embarrassedly: "The queen said that she was laughing. ”

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Dongying is poor, except for silver, there is really nothing, according to Rong Guogong's meaning, silver is not a useful thing for Dongying, hunger can't eat, cold can't clothes, you can use these things to exchange for some things in the Tang Dynasty, this is a good thing. I'm Dongying, I want everything, I probably understand what Rong Guogong wants to say, you look at it this way, let me say, Rong Guogong listen, listen to our Dongying's conditions, can Datang agree. ”

"Queen, please speak."

"After I return to China, I can order, in the future, Dongying's silver will be monopolized by the imperial court, and I will also use military strength to dig silver mines on a large scale, and I can also give Datang a port and build a Datang concession, on the concession, Datang can directly build a large metallurgical factory, the efficiency of transporting ore is still too slow, Datang can collect it at the price of ore, and transport it back in the form of silver, so it is not more profitable?"

When Qin Hao heard about it, there was such a good thing? I was a little confused for a while, you know, the silver of the Wa Kingdom, in the original history, probably around the Song Dynasty began a large-scale outflow, and it was dug up around the end of the Ming Dynasty, which once caused the deflation of the Ming Dynasty, but. That's the ore that was transported.

Even in modern times, three percent of the silver ore content can be regarded as a rich mineral, let alone this feudal society? If he really opened a silver mine smelter in the Wa Kingdom, Qin Hao dared to say that he would be able to clean up the silver in the Wa Kingdom when he was alive.

Without silver, what is left of the Wa Kingdom? There is no difference between this traitor, and once it is sold, it will be hundreds of years, and the wealth of more than ten generations of descendants will be sold out, or it will be sold cheaply.

But the problem is that Qin Hao knows very well that Emperor Tuigu is not a faint monarch, he is at the level of a politician, and Qin Hao is not as good as others in terms of political skills.

"Then I don't know what the queen wants from the Tang Dynasty, or from the hands of the Three Kingdoms?"

Tui Gu smiled and said: "It's nothing more than some ordinary materials, Dongying's demand for spices, silk, Western Regions curiosities and other things is not high, but there is a great demand for some ordinary iron tools and daily necessities, these things, Tang Chuan can buy them in Pyongyang after doing business in the Duhufu, and it doesn't take any effort at all, I'm right." I do have a request, I want to beg, Datang's concession, so that our Dongying people can also do things in it, I want to beg, Datang is in the concession, and then open a shipyard, even if it is a little smaller, I want to beg, Datang can accept more Tang envoys from our Dongying, every time we transport silver, by the way, we can transport some people over. ”

Yes, Qin Hao understands now, Queen Tuigu didn't just want to eat fish, she also wanted to learn how to fish.

After learning metallurgy, their silver can be melted by themselves, and after learning to build ships, they can do business on their own.

Wa Guo, a sad country, because he has no discipline, and every time he fails, he will kneel and lick it very thoroughly.

But at the same time it is also a terrible country because his speed and willingness to learn from the strong is really scary. ()
