Having said so much, it's time for this emperor fraud case to start the serious details.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, on behalf of the Dutch East India Company, as the plenipotentiary of the Oriental Commerce and Trade Matters, I promise you that I can be the master of His Majesty's business."

"It's good to be in charge."

After that, Zhu Youzhen got up from his seat lazily, stretched his waist and took a few steps forward, and Pulit also followed closely behind Zhu Youzhen.

I only listened to what Zhu Youzhen said in front of me.

"I don't know the business of 100 million taels of silver a year. Can the Dutch East India Company have the strength to undertake it? ”

"One hundred million taels!"

Pulit couldn't help but control himself and shouted!

What is the concept of 100 million taels, in Plit's opinion, if he can bring a business of 100 million taels of silver to the Dutch East India Company in this meeting with the Ming Emperor.

I am afraid that I will not only be an Oriental Dutch count, but under the influence of capital, I dare not imagine returning to the Netherlands.

Bringing such news, what should the country boil into.

What will the old shareholders of those companies be happy about, and will the old-fashioned old men who should go to the grave end this life directly after being happy!

Let alone! That's still 100 million taels of silver a year!

Listening to the meaning of His Majesty the Emperor in front of him, this business is still long-term!

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty... The Dutch East India Company is very happy to serve you, for the Ming Empire! ”

"Well. I just don't know if you have the sincerity to participate in this business! ”

Sincerity?

Plitt was a little puzzled, but he quickly reacted, suppressed his trembling gums, and said, "I wonder what kind of sincerity His Majesty the Emperor needs from the Dutch East India Company?" ”

"I need you to do everything possible to bring more food to Daming in the fastest possible time! Including but not limited to everything! I can eat it! Something that can feed the people! ”

Plitt looked at Zhu Youzhen in confusion.

"His Majesty the Emperor said that all the 100 million yuan a year business is grain procurement?"

Seeing that Pulit did not care about purchasing more food for Daming in the first place, but focused on future trade.

Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but sigh that the greed of these golden retrievers was really beyond imagination.

"No, this large-scale grain procurement will not be included in this trade list of 100 million taels of silver."

Plitt thoughtfully.

I couldn't help asking, "Is His Majesty the Emperor going to start a war?" ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Youzhen, who admitted it to Dafang, knew that his previous purchase of grain could also be explained as the need for domestic grain to be purchased overseas for reserves.

And I need a lot of food in the short term this time, and there is only one possibility, and that is war.

Instead of hiding it, it is better to tell the other party directly.

"With all due respect, Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the grain shipped by the Dutch East India Company every day is already an astronomical amount, and such a total amount of grain is already a terrifying figure for overseas countries."

"I am willing to pay a higher price on behalf of the Ming Empire!"

"Higher prices?"

Plitt didn't expect that the oriental grain trade, which originally relied on return trade subsidies to make a lot of profits, seemed to have a different meaning at this moment.

The emperor of the ancient Eastern Empire in front of him is completely inversely proportional to his age.

"Then for the sake of this higher price, Your Majesty the Emperor, the Dutch East India Company will be happy to grant your wish, and we will send more ships and more grain from farther afield."

Zhu Youzhen was very satisfied with Pulit's obedient performance.

But the next sentence left Pulit dumbfounded.

"But the current Ming Empire does not have the silver to pay for this grain."

"Wang Defa? Don't have money? ”

Although he knew that this was not in line with Eastern etiquette, Pulitt couldn't help but look up and down again at the emperor of the Ming Empire in front of him, that is, Zhu Youzhen.

The emperor of such an ancient eastern power now actually told himself that he had no money?

Without money, this may be reluctantly accepted by Pulit, but every word spoken by the current Ming Emperor seems to indicate an attitude.

That is.

I don't have money now, but it seems that there will be in the future, and there may not be in the future, but you have to give me food first.

Such a business is in front of him, although Plitt is very greedy for the big orders behind, but there is no money, where does the food come from?

The shipowners arrived and found that not only did they not make the profits they deserved, but they went to the ports of the East to unload the grain.

Found?

Don't plan to give the capital?

Plitt was immediately alarmed.

"That's... Your Majesty the Emperor, in what way are you going to pay for the food you need? ”

"Count Plit? Have you ever heard of government bonds? ”

Pulit is a little confused? State bonds?

Is it another oriental word?

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Youzhen opened his mouth and introduced.

"The so-called state bonds are borrowed from the outside world in the name of me, or in the name of the Ming Empire, and as a certificate, we will issue a certificate representing a certain value to the creditor, and when we reach the agreed period, we can rely on such a certificate to get money from the Ming Dynasty."

"No, no, no, Your Majesty the Emperor, I don't understand this very well, I don't think it will pay enough for the value of the grain, but will turn our proceeds into a thin piece of paper!"

Prit knew that he would not be able to explain it to the vampires of the Dutch East India Company without figuring it out.

If there is any problem in the middle, it is to kill yourself 800 times, I am afraid that those people will not be relieved.

"A thin piece of paper? No, this silver is not not given to you, but an agreed period, after which you can come to the Daming Royal Bank at any time to get the silver, and behind this is me! With the Ming Empire as a guarantee! ”

Zhu Youzhen once again opened his mouth and patiently explained to Plitt what Daming's state bonds were, and this method reduced Plit's suspicious gaze to a certain extent.

But it still didn't make sense for the old guy.

Seeing that Pulit was not in the trap, Zhu Youzhen said directly: "If the Dutch East India Company can obtain enough Daming bonds during this period, Daming will repay this debt in a more generous way." ”

"What do you mean by the way of abundance?"

"As long as you have enough bonds, even if it's silver that matures in the future, you can even buy my palace!"

"OMG! Buying your palace? ”
