Chapter 309: Unexpected Conditions

Zhao Shuo looked at Yan Zonghan, took a deep breath, took another sip of tea, and pondered for half a quarter of an hour before speaking. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info "This king is the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and your Jin Kingdom and my Great Song Dynasty have a deep enmity like the sea." For the sake of the people, trade with you, this king has already risked the world's disapproval, if he is exchanging military supplies with you, if this spreads, my prince will not be poked in the backbone by the people. ”

Seeing Zhao Shuo say this, Wanyan Zonghan knew that there was a door for the exchange. After all, Zhao Shuo said a lot, but he didn't directly refuse his proposal.

"Lord Wang! It is true that you are the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, and I admire it very much for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, but I heard that the prince is the son of Zhao Heng of Qinzong, and if Qinzong is not there, the prince should be the one who inherits the unification, but Zhao Gou took the opportunity to seek the throne, and directly gave Zhao Heng a temple number, and wanted to put the prince and die many times, he did ......"

Before Yan Zonghan's words were finished, he was interrupted by Zhao Shuo. "Lord Jin, are you sowing discord?"

"Lord Wang, I don't mean to sow discord, but to tell the truth." Wanyan Zonghan continued. "The prince is benevolent and righteous, and he still regards Zhao Gou as his uncle, but the prince knows that Zhao Gou keeps sending envoys Qin Hui to Zhongdu to meet my Dajin Emperor, the purpose is to put the prince and die."

"Enough!" Zhao Shuo's tone suddenly became stern. "You just said that the exchange of military supplies, what kind of exchange method."

Hearing Zhao Shuo's words, Wanyan Zonghan thought that his agitation method had worked, and hurriedly said. "Lord Wang, the land of Qi used to be the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and I, Dajin, have realized my mistake at this moment, so I am willing to return the land of Qi to the prince. As for the small cannonballs, we will buy them at the price that the prince sells to other forces. ”

"Is this an exchange?" Zhao Shuo asked angrily.

"Naturally, it is an exchange, as long as the prince says to the outside world that he has exchanged small cannonballs for the land of the Great Song Dynasty, I think the people can understand the fact that the prince gave small cannonballs to the Jin Kingdom." Wanyan Zonghan said with a smile. "Perhaps, the people will be grateful to the prince!"

Zhao Shuo looked at Wanyan Zonghan, Jin Guo did this, he planned to abandon the car to protect the handsome, which shows that the rising Menggu Department and the Kelie Department in the north pose a great threat to them, otherwise, with Wanyan Wu's temper, he would never send someone to talk to Zhao Shuo about any deals.

The land of Qi stretched from Luoyang to the east, extending to the entire Shandong Peninsula, and if Zhao Shuo got this land, there would also be an outlet to the sea. This is what Zhao Shuo dreamed of.

Once there was an outlet to the sea, Zhao Shuo could greatly develop the navy and develop overseas trade. In this way, resources from all over the world will be continuously transported here, and relying on these resources, Zhao Shuo's wealth will increase exponentially.

With these wealth, the future technologies in Zhao Shuo's mind can be realized one by one. This is a real big step forward for him to achieve his goal.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shuo was a little moved. Of course, the benefits of selling to Jin Guo are not limited to these.

The Jin State has a small cannonball, which has a certain restrain on the Menggu Department and the Kereh Department, which will also indirectly hinder the growth of the Menggu Department and the Kereh Department.

Not only can you get a lot of money, but you can also get the coveted access to the sea, and it also retards the growth of the Moe Gu and Kereh tribes.

Sell small cannonballs to Jin Guo, and you can get three benefits at once.

Zhao Shuo was tempted, but he didn't impulsively agree directly, because there was another disadvantage of selling small cannonballs to Jinguo, that is, after Jinguo had small cannonballs, Zhao Shuo's threat to Jinguo would be reduced accordingly.

Perhaps, one day after the Jin Kingdom has studied the small cannonballs thoroughly, he will send troops to the public, which is a disaster for Zhao Shuo, who does not have a lot of troops.

"Why, the prince still thinks that our sincerity is not enough?" Seeing that Zhao Shuo didn't speak for a long time, Wanyan Zonghan was a little anxious. "If the prince has any conditions, just say it, everything can be discussed."

Zhao Shuo had a flash of inspiration in his mind, the corners of his mouth lifted lightly, and he turned his head to look at Wanyan Zonghan. "In this way, in addition to the land of Qi State, as long as you agree to one condition from this king, this king will agree to sell the small cannonball to the Jin country, and the price is the same as selling it to the Meng Gu Department."

"Lord Wang, please speak!" Wanyan Zonghan has already prepared a series of worst-case plans such as cutting land and claiming to be a minister.

"This king wants to exempt all border taxes from the purchase and sale of goods with the Jin Kingdom, that is to say, when the goods within the territory of the Jin Kingdom enter the Jin Kingdom, the border of the Jin Kingdom shall not collect border taxes, and of course, the goods entered by the Jin Kingdom into the territory of the King, and the King shall not collect border taxes." After finishing speaking, Zhao Shuo stared at Yan Zonghan. "I wonder what the golden envoy thinks?"

Wanyan Zonghan was a little stunned, he thought that Zhao Shuo would put forward a written harsh condition, but now when he heard it, it turned out to be exempt from border taxes. For Jinguo, the border tax is just an ordinary state revenue, because of the perennial war, there is not much collected every year.

Exemption or non-exemption does not have a big impact on Jinguo, and even if the border tax is exempted, if Jinguo wants to collect taxes, it can also take action again from other aspects.

After thinking about it, Wanyan Zonghan couldn't understand why Zhao Shuo specifically proposed such an article.

"Lord Wang, this is your last condition?" Racking his brains, Wanyan Zonghan, who was still confused, questioned Zhao Shuo.

"This king does this just to make the people of the two places live better, and this king will treat the merchants from the Jin Kingdom like his people, and I hope you will do the same." Zhao Shuo said lightly.

After Yan Zonghan pondered for a while, he still didn't come up with a reason why Zhao Shuo did this.

"If the Golden Envoy can't be the master, you can go back and ask your Great Golden Emperor for instructions, and I'm talking back and forth." Zhao Shuo saw that Yan Zonghan didn't say anything for a long time, turned around and turned his back, looking a little impatient.

"Hehe......" Yan Zonghan smiled awkwardly, finally Zhao Shuo agreed to sell small cannonballs, how dare he leave now, if he came again, Zhao Shuo didn't admit it, what could he do to Zhao Shuo. Thinking about it, Yan Wu had already told him when he bought it, as long as Zhao Shuo agreed to sell small cannonballs, he could agree to any conditions. Wanyan Zonghan gritted his teeth and continued. "Lord Wang, everything will be done according to what we just said."

Zhao Shuo turned around and looked at Yan Zonghan with a smile. "Okay, that's it. The Jin State will occupy the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, the current Qi State, and return it to the Great Song Song King, that is, the hands of this king, and when the time comes, you can take away the small cannonballs from this king, and the price is the same as selling them to the Meng Gu Department, two thousand taels each, and how much you can take away at that time depends on how much money you have brought. After the small cannonballs are sold to you, the tax on the border travel of both sides will be reduced at the same time, which should be fair! ”

Although Wanyan Zonghan felt that it was a bit risky to hand over the land of Qi State first, there was no way out at this moment, so he could only trust Zhao Shuo.

"Okay, just do what the prince said."

After Yan Zonghan made his statement, Zhao Shuo found someone to bring a pen and paper, wrote the covenant in duplicate, and then signed and stamped it with a ribbon. After Zhao Shuo stamped the seal, he immediately left the Shuai Mansion with the covenant and went straight to the capital of the Jin Kingdom.
