Chapter 399: Ling Yun's doubts
Qin Hui once again expressed his position, but Zhao Shuo didn't take it too seriously. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info Qin Hui is this person, he understands. As long as Zhao Shuo is always strong, Qin Hui will always be loyal. If Zhao Shuo becomes weaker one day, and is in danger of being killed by Zhao Gou, Qin Hui will definitely leave Zhao Shuo and return to Zhao Gou's side.
To put it bluntly, Qin Hui is a wall grass for profit, where is the advantage leading.
"Alright, alright." Zhao Shuo waved his hand. "Lord Qin, don't be so polite, let's talk about it, what else is there to do this time besides sending the covenant!"
When Zhao Shuo asked, Qin Hui smiled awkwardly. "I can't hide anything from the prince, so I'll just say it......"
After a slight pause, seeing that Zhao Shuo did not change his face, Qin Hui continued. "Come this time, in fact, I just want to do business with the prince......"
Although Zhao Shuo didn't change his face, after thinking about it, Qin Hui still didn't say it directly.
What Qin Hui wants to say, Zhao Shuo knows. Now the two of them are completely pretending to be confused.
Qin Hui didn't say it, and Zhao Shuo didn't want to mention it. "Business, okay." Zhao Shuo smiled. "Then we will reduce or exempt each other's tariffs, and the local checkpoints will release each other's goods all the way."
"Okay, okay, everything is up to the prince." Qin Hui nodded and said with a huff.
"Now that the matter is decided, if Lord Qin is fine, go back." After Zhao Shuo finished speaking, he directly issued an order to evict customers.
This time, Qin Hui was anxious. The main purpose of his visit was to buy small cannonballs for Zhao Shuo. It was for this reason that he persuaded Zhao Gou to trade with Zhao Shuo.
Now that I go back like this, I can't explain to Zhao Gou at all. The position of the governor is not yet hot, and he doesn't want to be pushed down like this.
"Lord Wang, in fact, there is one more thing......"
"If there's something, just say it." Zhao Shuo said lightly. "Since it's my subordinate, there's no need to be so restrained."
"This matter, the prince knows." Qin Hui still didn't want to say it directly. "Just as His Majesty said in the Imperial Garden...... "After taking a few steps ahead, Qin Hui lowered his voice. It is the reason to persuade His Majesty to trade with the prince. ”
Seeing Qin Hui like this, Zhao Shuo laughed. "Hahaha...... It turned out to be a small cannonball. ”
"Exactly, exactly." Qin Hui echoed. "Please also ask the prince to sell me some first, and I will have to pay for it when I go back. In this way, my official position can be stabilized, and I can do better things for the prince in the future. ”
"Yo, Lord Qin is really good at going around, going around and around, going around to help me." Zhao Shuo shook his head slightly. "Actually, the last thing I should do with a small cannonball is to sell it to my uncle, he is much more terrible than Jin Guo."
Hearing Zhao Shuo say this, Qin Hui's heart was half cold.
"However, for your sake, I can give you a few." After striking Qin Hui, Zhao Shuo gave another sweet date.
"Thank you so much, Lord Wang." Qin Hui kowtowed to the ground. "I know that this thing is expensive, I won't ask the prince for nothing, I'm willing to pay double."
"This king lacks so much money from you." Zhao Shuo raised his hand. "Get up, go to Ling Yun, tell him, just say what I said, give you five small cannonballs."
"Thank you, Lord Wang." Qin Hui saluted again, then got up and walked out.
"By the way, these five are for you, if you don't research them, then don't blame me." Zhao Shuo looked at Qin Hui who was walking away, and added.
"Minister, got it." Qin Hui turned around and bowed again, then turned to leave.
After Qin Hui left, about two quarters of an hour later, Ling Yun hurriedly came to the meeting room.
"Lord Wang, did you agree to give the small cannonball to Qin Hui?" As soon as he entered the door, Ling Yun asked in a loud voice.
"Oh, what's the matter, give them a few small cannonballs, and they will you off like this." Zhao Shuo looked at Ling Yun and said with a smile.
"Lord Wang, this little cannonball is not an ordinary thing for us, it is really inappropriate to give it to Da Song like this." Ling Yun looked anxious and took a few steps in front of Zhao Shuo.
"Tell me what you think." Zhao Shuo looked at Ling Yun and put away his smile.
"The Great Song Dynasty has never taken advantage of our war to sneak attack us, a large part of the reason is that we have small cannonballs and muskets, if we give them small cannonballs, the prince will lose the weapon of deterrence against the Great Song Dynasty in the future. The prince once said that in the future, the Hamuhei Mongol Congress will unify the Mongolian steppe and become strong, at that time, the prince is bound to fight with it, and he has lost the weapon to deter the Great Song Dynasty. Either way, it's not good for us. Lingyun analyzed.
"Give them five small cannonballs, and they will be able to study small cannonballs?" Zhao Shuo asked his own question.
"Lord Wang, you may not know that the gunpowder research of the Great Song Dynasty is actually at a very high level. This kind of weapon, just a change in formula and proportion, may be fine for many tribes in the Jin Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom and the Mongolian steppe, but for the Great Song Dynasty, it is difficult to say. As long as they open the small cannonballs, look at the recipe and proportions, and experiment a little, it won't take long for them to come to the table. Ling Yun voiced his concerns.
"If you study it, you can study it, this thing, after using it for a while, should be outdated. When the time comes, let's work on some new weapons. Zhao Shuo smiled and said.
"Lord Wang, you've come up with a new weapon." Ling Yun was slightly stunned and couldn't help but ask.
"That's a later story, when I have time, I'll draw the drawings to you." Zhao Shuo patted Ling Yun on the shoulder. "The top priority now is to trade with the Great Song Dynasty."
"Lord Wang, the Great Song Dynasty is rich in products, we communicate with them, we are at a loss." Ling Yun wasn't worried about the small cannonballs, but he was worried about something else.
"No loss, no loss." Zhao Shuo said with a smile. "My uncle has a different strategy than mine, so after the trade, their merchants will never be too active, on the contrary, our people here will definitely cheer."
"That's not good, the more active our merchants are, the more things we buy from Da Song, the more we lose." Ling Yun was even more worried.
"You're stupid!" Zhao Shuo looked at Ling Yun and said word by word.
Ling Yun scratched his head, stunned.
"We won't sell it again if we buy it, merchants, merchants, just buy from the east, go to the west to sell, buy back, sell with us, we suffer a loss, go to Xia to sell, go to Jin to sell, go to Xiliao to sell, go to the surrounding nomadic tribes to sell, can't this still make money?" Zhao Shuo explained helplessly.
Now Zhao Shuo has established a military alliance with the Western Xia, and trade is not a problem, and he has also signed a trade alliance with the Jin State and the Western Liao.
After smoothing out this, Ling Yun smirked, then saluted Zhao Shuo, and left in a hurry.
