Chapter 383: The Last Thirty Percent
Bai Gaolan, as one of the highest-ranking people present, was naturally elected by the people of the Northern Alliance to speak on his behalf, asking him to bargain with Qin Wu Ye Zhiying.
Bai Gaolan spoke: "Mr. Ye, 8,000 soldiers, only one percent of the animal skins are exchanged?
Ye Zhiying asked him rhetorically: "Then how many soldiers does Bai Taishou think is appropriate for one percent?"
Bai Gaolan thought that Ye Zhiying would make a deal with him, but he didn't expect Ye Zhiying to ask him this question so directly, Bai Gaolan thought about it for a while, and said: "Five hundred people, one percent of the animal skin, and other things should also be appropriately reduced." ”
Hearing Bai Gaolan's ratio, Ye Zhiying immediately laughed: "Hahaha, Bai Taishou, I said eight thousand, you directly lowered it to five hundred for me, this is still called 'appropriate drop'?"
Bai Gaolan's face was embarrassed for a while, and then said with a smile: "If Mr. Ye thinks something is inappropriate, you can also say it directly, we were originally discussing, right?"
However, Bai Gaolan still has a sentence in his heart that he hasn't said, that is, it is common sense to kill the price at one time, although it is a bit exaggerated to kill five hundred directly, but it is also for his own interests, he can't just say that seven thousand five or seven thousand is a little lower, right?
"Discuss?" Ye Zhiying smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Originally, I planned to exchange 10,000 soldiers for one percent, thinking of your specific situation and the basic equipment of the soldiers, now this 8,000 is already the result of my discretion for you." ”
"If Bai Taishou thinks it's expensive, then I may ask Bai Taishou, an army of millions, can you kill a king-level beast?"
"This ......," Bai Gaolan was speechless for a while.
If there is no master with enough strength to fight for his life, even a million army will not be able to kill a king-level beast, first of all, the biggest problem is that he can't even break the defense, which is no longer something that can be filled by the number of people.
Ye Zhiying saw that he couldn't speak, so he continued: "If you follow my original proportion, a whole animal skin is worth one million troops, but whether a million troops can kill king-level alien beasts I believe that Bai Taishou also has a number in his heart, not to mention that my price is still eight thousand for one percent, isn't this still unreasonable?"
"But that's not the price. Bai Gaolan said helplessly, "The difficulty of killing a king-level alien beast does not represent the value of the corpse of a king-level alien beast, if it is a king-level alien beast attacking the city, then even if you do everything you can, you have to go up and fight, this is a matter of defending your homeland, and buying the corpse of a king-level alien beast now is completely different from buying it." ”
"In that case, I'll settle accounts with you again. Ye Zhiying smiled confidently, he believed that what he was going to say would definitely make the people of the Northern Alliance unable to refute, "One percent of the king-level alien beast skins can make about hundreds of pieces of leather armor, if these hundreds of pieces of invulnerable leather armor are equipped on soldiers, their combat ability can instantly match the elite of the Tiger Ben Army, and if it is the elite army equipment of the Tiger Ben Army...... Think for yourself, is this still a loss?"
When the people of the Northern Alliance below heard Qin Wu say the words "things" and "value", they had already vaguely guessed whether Qin Wu would not accept money, so they began to whisper about what Qin Wu would want, but when Qin Wu directly explained that he would not accept money and asked them if they had any problems, everyone was quiet again for a while.
"No problem, Mr. Qin, please start. Everyone in the Northern Alliance asked.
Anyway, they already knew that Qin Wu hadn't revealed the news to anyone in advance, so no matter how much they discussed, they couldn't talk about anything, and when the bidding began, when Qin Wu explained it himself, everything would naturally be clear.
"That's good. ”
Qin Wu agreed, turned around and whispered to Ye Zhiying, "Brother Zhiying, I'll leave the rest to you." ”
"Hmm. Ye Zhiying took a step forward and moved to Qin Wu's side.
The people in the Northern Alliance looked at Ye Zhiying one after another, they didn't know who Ye Zhiying was, but Qin Wu just called him "Brother Zhiying", they could hear him clearly, originally they saw him standing behind Qin Wu, thinking that it was Qin Wu's subordinate, just a small follower, but now that they heard Qin Wu call him like this, they must not be incompetent, thinking of this, their eyes when they looked at Ye Zhiying suddenly became much more respectful and polite.
Ye Zhiying stepped forward and said to the people of the Northern Alliance: "My name is Ye Zhiying, I won't say much else, now I will talk about what we need, and the proportion of each of them." ”
"First of all, the army, which must be well-trained and equipped with the kind of equipment, and after delivery, we will have full command of it, and every eight thousand soldiers can be exchanged for one percent of the fur of the king-level alien beasts, and the upper limit is fifty percent. ”
"Then there are the horses, which are exchanged for one percent of the bones of king-level alien beasts for every five hundred horses, and the upper limit is also fifty percent. ”
"Then there is equipment and grain and grass, every 300,000 arrows or 200,000 stone of grain can be exchanged for five percent of the tendons of king-level alien beasts, and the upper limit is fifty percent, by the way, the arrows should be made of iron, not flint arrows. ”
"There is also arable land and minerals, this exchange ratio is also a specific discussion, according to the situation of the farmland or the specific situation of the mine, such as good yield of good land and average yield of ordinary farmland, the number of acres required must be different, the upper limit of this item is ten percent of the carcass of the beast, the category is not limited, that is, the proportion of fur, bones, and tendons is bundled together. ”
"In addition, it can also be all kinds of treasures, it can be precious materials or medicinal materials, as long as it is a treasure that you think is valuable, you can use it for discussion, the upper limit is ten percent, and the category is also not limited......"
Ye Zhiying recited a long list in a row, and after the people present heard these conditions, the atmosphere on the field also changed from quiet at the beginning to a murmur again.
And Ye Zhiying also waited for them to discuss in private first, and did not stop them, although these conditions seem to be very high, they are actually reasonable, and Ye Zhiying listed the proportions after a night of thinking, he doesn't believe that anyone will be too expensive and not buy.
Except for the treasures, which are to be discussed, the others are all things that can be bought with money, but the reason why Qin Wu doesn't charge money to accept these things is actually because the amount is too large, and it is no longer possible to buy them with money alone, especially in a geographically restricted place like the extreme north, it is not as convenient as bartering directly.
For example, if a soldier is recruited by money, he can definitely be recruited, but after all, this is someone else's territory, and unless the city is directly taken over, if you want to recruit a large number of people, it is not something that can be solved by just having money and fame. Moreover, if you recruit yourself, the recruited soldiers are mixed, and you have to train them step by step, and when the time comes, it will be a lot of financial and material resources. In contrast, it is much more convenient to buy troops directly from these princes and magnates, although there may be people they have installed among the soldiers bought, but they are not from the same city after all, as long as they are mixed and scattered, they naturally do not have to worry about being recaptured by anyone.
As for the grain, grass and arrows, Ye Zhiying originally wanted to price 300,000 arrows or 300,000 stone grains, although the proportion seems a little unreasonable, one arrow is worth a person's ration for a month, if it is changed to another place, the arrow is definitely not worth this price, but what if it is a well-made arrow? You must know that the things forged in the far north, whether it is weapons or arrows, belong to the list of high-quality products.
However, considering that the extreme north is not rich in grain, and most of the grain is purchased from other places, which is a price that people have earned, so Ye Zhiying finally reduced the proportion of grain to 200,000 stones, and considering that the amount of animal tendons is obviously impossible to compare with animal skins and animal bones, and the use of animal tendons is much less, so Ye Zhiying uses 510% of this item.
Cultivated land and mines, naturally there is no need to say much, after all, no matter how much grain is to eat a bite less, here is far away from the post city, not to mention, and the post city is not a farming city, once the army is assembled, it must have its own logistics production base, if you rely on businessmen alone, then it is not that businessmen say that if you run off food, you can strangle the lifeblood of the entire army at will?
Actually, if he could, Ye Zhiying even wanted to buy their city directly, which was obviously much more convenient, even if he directly exchanged the entire king-level beast, anyway, there were all kinds of soldiers, horses, equipment, grain and grass in a city, but obviously, this was impossible, if the city was gone, what would these people do with the corpse of the king-level beast?
And if it is to ask them for any rights, or what management rights, it is impossible for Ye Zhiying's side, this kind of thing is too difficult to distinguish the boundaries, maybe it will be subject to others, in order to avoid trouble in the future, it is better to simply ask for farmland and mines.
In addition to these, Ye Zhiying had also considered talents, that is, generals and masters, although the generals' talents in this area could not be tested for the time being, Ye Zhiying was not worried about who would use mediocre talents to make up for the numbers, after all, they couldn't stop Qin Wu from coming to settle accounts......
However, after some careful calculation, Ye Zhiying found that although the king-level beast was huge, if the other necessities were removed, there was actually nothing left to replace, and compared to those war necessities, the talent aspect was not so important, and they were not short of masters for the time being, and even the existing masters had not fully functioned, so why continue to add them? If you are a general, there must be a talent in this area among the soldiers, and when the time comes, it will be good to take a little effort to select it, even if it is almost compared to those generals, it doesn't matter much, as long as you are obedient......
After waiting for a while, the people of the Northern Alliance below also discussed it, they all agreed on the same thing, and they all felt that the price should be lowered a little more, although Ye Zhiying thought that the price he offered was very reasonable, but these people would not accept it just because the price was reasonable, unless it was really cheap to the point that they had nothing to say, otherwise they would definitely be able to take a profit.
