Chapter 12: If you don't want to give, then I'll lease the head office, right? (Ask for investment, ask for reading!) )

"You dare to sell that thing, aren't you afraid that your emperor will kill your nine clans?"

The old king's words made the corners of Zhu Gaoyu's mouth tug.

Indeed, if you don't enter the imperial court, ordinary generals will sell this thing, and at the least they will have to be Ling Chi and the whole family will be exiled.

If there are too many of them, and they are sold to the enemy country, it is basically the nine clans having fun together.

But the problem is to kill him, Zhu Gaoyu and the nine clans.

Hehe, it's not him Zhu Gaoyu who is arrogant.

In the whole world, no one dared to dream of such thoughts.

Taking the tea from the maid next to him, Zhu Gaoyu ignored the rouge lips on it and drank it in one gulp.

"Whether the court kills my nine clans or not, this is my business, I'll ask you if you want to?"

The old king narrowed his eyes.

This governor is a bit crazy, he is not even afraid to kill the nine clans, is it very high in Daming.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the two granddaughters who were serving beside him.

The two girls seemed to feel something, raised their eyes slightly and glanced at it, and then quickly lowered their heads.

Although it was only a glance, the old king had already understood what he should have understood.

This kid's status in Daming is very high, so high that his two granddaughters don't even dare to give him tips.

Knowing this, the old king did not hesitate to say: "Yes, I want as much as I want." ”

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, thinking of the lion's big mouth when the other party traded some time ago, he made preparations for being slaughtered, gritted his teeth and said, "How much money are you going to want, or how many spices or gems are you going to want?" ”

Glancing at the two maids who were silently pinching their shoulders and legs beside them, Zhu Gaoyu smiled lightly: "I don't want money, and I don't want things." ”

The old king was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked outside the carriage.

The sun didn't come out in the west.

How did this guy, who was in business some time ago, fight for everything, suddenly become so generous.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

This kid doesn't want money or things, and that's not an ordinary request.

The old king's heart suddenly became vigilant.

"It's not the first time we've done business, hurry up and say it directly, what do you want, otherwise I'm uneasy about you like this."

Zhu Gaoyu chuckled lightly when he heard this, and waved his hand to the two maids.

The twin maids saluted, opened the carriage door and walked out, leaving only Zhu Gaoyu and the old king in the carriage.

Such a scene made the old king's heart even more tugging.

Even the closest subordinates were not allowed to sit in on the side, so it can be seen that what this kid wants is by no means ordinary.

Reaching out and knocking on the window, the shouts of the left army to make room for the carriage soon sounded outside the car.

After waiting for a while, Zhu Gaoyu looked at the old king.

The old king's nerves were also tense to the extreme.

"I'm going to sprinkle the harbor."

Staring at the nervous old king, Zhu Gaoyu pointed to the dock where everyone had landed just now.

"Impossible!"

"If that's the case, I'd rather not have those things."

The old king outright refused.

The Sultanate of Bengal was not as dirty and messy as it was in later generations.

Due to its special location, it is a necessary place for both Eastern and Western countries to pass by sea and land, and it is very prosperous economically.

The port of Sadi was an important source of national finance, and the old king would rather exchange all his granddaughters for those things than give up the port.

"Don't worry."

Seeing that the old man's anxious face was red, Zhu Gaoyu poured him a cup of tea.

The old king blew his beard and snorted glaringly.

I wanted to end this conversation, but I was worried that the refusal would be too decisive, which would make the Ming side unhappy.

So I can only endure the unhappiness in my heart and listen to what this kid plans to say.

"The location of your country is an important artery between the East and the West, plus the climate."

"Not only are you economical and accessible, but you also have a lot of crops."

The corners of the old king's mouth were slightly hooked.

Glancing at the old king who was a little secretly proud, Zhu Gaoyu said slowly:

"But as the saying goes, there must be advantages and disadvantages."

"As far as the position of your country is located, there is a metaphor in our Ming Dynasty, that is, the place where soldiers must fight."

The old king, who had just been a little complacent in his heart, turned dark in an instant.

Zhu Gaoyu continued to mend the knife.

"If the neighbors around you are weak, it's okay if you are strong, but once your neighbors rise, or if your strength declines, then the fate of your country must not be said by me, you should know very well."

Leaning slightly on the carriage, Zhu Gaoyu hugged his hands and looked at the old king with a smile.

"After all, this kind of thing that your ancestors have experienced is not once or twice."

The old king snorted coldly, "So what, if I give you the port, can you still help our country resist the invasion of foreign enemies?" ”

The smile on Zhu Gaoyu's face remained unchanged, and he looked at the old king and said slowly: "Why can't you." ”

The old king's brow furrowed.

"What a statement?"

A triumphant smile appeared in Zhu Gaoyu's eyes.

The old man's heart was already moved, but he was still a little hesitant.

Think about it too.

If it weren't for all the helplessness, who would give up their land to others.

Of course, some pigtails may think differently than others.

"If we have a port in your country, then we have a cooperative relationship, and huge interests are involved."

"Your Bangladesh Sultanate is peaceful and stable, and we can make more money."

"So in order to ensure that we can make more money, we will do our best to ensure the peace and stability of your country."

The old king raised an eyebrow, "That's all?" ”

Zhu Gaoyu spread his hands.

"Isn't that enough?"

The old king fell silent.

Yes, it seems that it is enough to ensure the security of one's own country from being invaded by foreign enemies.

Seeing that the old king was a little wavering, Zhu Gaoyu continued: "In addition, with the port, our Ming Dynasty will bring more goods and promote the development of trade, and there will be more people who will come to buy things by then." ”

"And when there are more people, in addition to economic development, other aspects will also bring about huge changes."

"For example, cultural exchanges between various countries, as well as the introduction of various processing and production technologies, as long as you are willing to spend money and seize the opportunity, these will also enter your hands."

"With the stable environment brought to you by the Ming Dynasty, coupled with the trade brought by economic development, and the inflow of this knowledge."

Speaking of this, Zhu Gaoyu glanced at the old king enviously.

"I envy you for such a good thing."

The old king snorted twice.

"Although you said it well, I'm sorry, I'm still going to refuse."

"From the day my Sultanate of Bengal was founded, there was no precedent for giving land to other countries."

"Even if I agree, the nobles and ministers in the country will not agree."

Zhu Gaoyu understood what the other party meant.

The old king was moved, but he was worried that giving the land to other countries would get countless infamy and even threaten his own status.

"Are you worried that your subjects will object?"

The old king glanced at Zhu Gaoyu and said nothing, everything was silent.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Gaoyu's mouth, "I have a compromise method, that is, I can achieve the goals of both of us, and your subjects will not have such a big opposition." ”

The old king raised his head sharply, "What way?" ”

Zhu Gaoyu approached the old king's ear and said two words in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them.

"Lend!"
