Chapter 243 Weak countries have no diplomacy
Facing the Emperor who had already shown anger, Zhang Hao's eyes also sharpened. "Your Majesty, that was a quote from the past. Nowadays, due to the impact of war, the cost of all aspects is increasing.
The price of thirty high-grade spirit stones is already the price of sincerity.
Now Zhangjiadu sells the special dark iron for alchemy, and the price in some places has been as high as 50 high-grade spirit stones. ”
"Oh......" the Emperor nodded slowly, "What about the steel, although it looks good, but I heard that at least 20,000 legions in your country have been completely redressed, I think the price of this steel should be very low, right?"
"Your Majesty, the 20,000 legions are divided into two parts. The first part is the legion of the royal family of the country of Qixia, in order to exchange for the armament of these 10,000 people, the country of Qixia has rewarded the land of eight towns of the Zhang family. It's almost a 300-mile radius of territory.
The second part is the 10,000 civilian armed forces of the Dayang Group, and in order to support this legion, the Dayang Group has done its best. And the Ocean Group contains almost half of the civil forces in the country of Qixia.
In other words, in order to arm the 20,000 legions, the country of Qixia has almost emptied its family foundation. ”
"Oh...... Then how much did your Zhang family earn?"
Zhang Hao's face suddenly became serious: "The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, and the Zhang family does not dare to speak out at this time of crisis." ”
The Emperor nodded affirmatively: "The artillery you provided is good. But the offer of 500,000 is still too high. Moreover, the artillery is made of steel, and it doesn't need 50,000 high-grade spirit stones! 500,000, which is an exaggeration. ”
Zhang Hao said loudly: "Your Majesty, the reason why artillery is expensive is not because of the materials used, but because of the processing technology and its effect.
The cost of materials for artillery is no more than a ton of steel. The cost price does not exceed 50,000 high-grade spirit stones.
The most precious thing about artillery is the processing technology. Knowing how to make this product is far more expensive than the cost price. This point is worth 300,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Finally, there is the battlefield effect of artillery, which far surpasses the traditional magic of war in terms of morale boosting. This point is worth 150,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Therefore, the price of the artillery is 500,000 high-grade spirit stones, which is a reasonable price. ”
The Great Emperor frowned slightly, but had to nod: "What you said has some truth. But that wasn't enough to convince me to accept such a high price. ”
Zhang Hao had already prepared: "Your Majesty, one of the core technologies of artillery is the barrel, and the Dayang Group can also sell the barrel separately.
Now that your country has the drawings, I believe that your country's heritage can completely replicate a complete artillery. ”
"What about the barrel price?"
"80,000 high-grade spirit stones. ”
"Oh...... The price is about the same. If we trade in pills, we can still get a 10% discount, right?"
"Yes. Zhang Hao frowned slightly, he found that he had fallen into the disadvantage.
The Emperor stopped talking, but looked at Huang Shaoxian, and Huang Shaoxian, the left minister, said to Zhang Hao: "Young Master Zhang, now let's talk about the price of the pill." Hey, the country of Canglan is also very nervous now. ”
Zhang Hao's heart sank slightly, but he just looked at Huang Shaoxian without speaking or making any statement.
Huang Shaoxian continued: "I heard that the Pei Yuan Dan of the Qixia Country has risen to one hundred spirit stones, and the slightly better Zhuji Dan has risen to five thousand spirit stones. Is this serious?"
Zhang Hao glanced at Fu Yun, but still had to nod.
Huang Shaoxian smiled: "Young Master Zhang, look, our Pei Yuan Dan costs 80 spirit stones, and Pei Yuan Dan costs 3,000 spirit stones, how about it?"
Zhang Hao's heart chuckled, and then he was furious, but the next moment, Zhang Hao calmed down: "Zuo Xiang said and laughed." If you really want to buy it at such a price, I am afraid that if you don't wait for the country of Jinyang to attack, the country of Qixia will be unsustainable. ”
"Ha, I'm just kidding. Well, it's really hard for us, but we can't afford to be a friend. So what about the price of this elixir, let's continue the price before the war.
Pei Yuan Dan 20 spirit stones, Zhuji Dan 1000 spirit stones, and the rest of the pills and so on all maintain the original price.
How?"
Zhang Hao frowned and said slowly: "It's not authentic for Zuo Xiang to do this." Almost all of the Zhang's dark iron is supplied at cost price, which is lower than the price of the dark iron from Kunlun Continent. And the offer of the left phase is still expensive. The current country of Qixia is difficult to pay!"
Huang Shaoxian's complexion changed suddenly, and the smile on his face instantly became gloomy and even a little hideous. "Young Master Zhang, although I am not in business, I know that business is inseparable from the country.
In the current country of Qixia, in addition to my country of Canglan who is willing to lend a hand, are there other countries that are willing?
I don't dare to say no, but it's rare!
To put it bluntly, the current country of Qixia no longer has much power to fight. Except for relying on external support, it will be difficult to sustain itself.
If you want to develop to the sea, there is actually no way, you are driven into the sea!
Talking about opening up the road to the ocean, it's just that I want to go to the sea and be a turtle with a shrunken head!"
"Haha......" The surrounding officials laughed.
Zhang Hao's face was pale, and the muscles on his hand holding the wine glass burst out. Zhang Hao wanted to roar and kill, but he had to sit here and listen quietly to the ridicule around him.
At this moment, a sentence suddenly appeared in Zhang Hao's heart: A weak country has no diplomacy!
Yes, this is not a deal at all, it is not diplomacy, it is a ...... Help!
Zhang Hao was very reluctant to admit it, but he had to admit it. Acknowledging that you are here for help, admitting that you are inferior to others, is a very painful realization.
In the laughter, Huang Shaoxian continued: "Let's talk about our country of vicissitudes. Young Master Zhang wouldn't really think that our country of vicissitudes was dangerous, would he?
Oh, that's impossible! That's the difference between a small country and a big country.
So far, not an inch of land has been lost in the Land of Canglan, and all the levels are intact.
In fact, the country of Jinyang is unable to advance eastward, and the pressure on us is almost non-existent. From the beginning of the defense of the country of Jinyang to the present, we have not added a single soldier on the Western Front.
There are also several warlords from the country of Shaoze attacking, but these warlords are weak to follow. By now, their combat effectiveness has begun to decay.
The only threat is the country of Langya in the east. But the country of Langya is now also an ant on a hot pot. They occupied more than 300,000 troops in Qianlong Harbor, but they couldn't advance or retreat!
It's not that Qianlong Harbor can't be defended by us, but we take the initiative to let it out. trapped the 300,000 elites of the country of Langya.
So far, we have won the initiative in the battle with the country of Langya.
In addition, in the east of the country of Langya, there is also a 'country of the Southern Tang Dynasty'. Just the day before yesterday, we had established contact with the country of the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is expected that in about half a month, the country of the Southern Tang Dynasty will send troops to attack the country of Langya.
We have already discussed, and in the future, we will jointly send troops to destroy the country of Langya, and each will divide it in half!"
Zhang Hao was dumbfounded. He suddenly realized that poverty limited his imagination. Well, to be exact, I've been circling around in this corner of the country of perched clouds, forgetting the vastness of the outside world.
In this wide world, war is never a matter between one or two countries. Every war is a game between several countries, if not more.
What Huang Shaoxian said may be a bit exaggerated, but it will never be unbelievable.
Zhang Hao felt that Qianlong Port should not have been actively lost by the country of Canglan, but a choice made as a last resort, but he also used Qianlong Port to the extreme, trapping 300,000 elites in the country of Langya - of course, how many elites are actually there, Zhang Hao was skeptical.
But no matter what, there is one thing that Zhang Hao agrees with: there is no danger of destroying the country. Therefore, the country of Canglan can develop slowly, but the country of Qixia cannot!
But Zhang Hao did not give up, he endured his anger and tried his best to fight for enough benefits. And Zhang Hao also has a certain reason, once the West is unified by the country of Jinyang, it will also be a disaster for the country of Canglan.
In the end, Zhang Hao said to Huang Shaoxian: "A unified and powerful country of Jinyang will never be willing to be bland!"
Huang Shao paused slightly, finally looked at the emperor, and finally nodded to Zhang Hao: "How about this, the price of the pill remains the same, this is a national policy that is not easy to change." But for every 100 pills, we give an additional 10 of the same type. ”
"Deal!"
So a deal that would later be full of controversy was signed. Later it is not the question of how much the price is, but the calculation of the discount:
The Zhang family promised to trade with pills, and the price was 10% off;
And the country of Canglan said that for every 100 pills, 10 more pills will be given, that is, 110 pills.
So the question is, who has the biggest discount (concession)?
