Chapter 382: What Qin Wu Needs
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. Pinshu.com
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 example, 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 he said with a smile: "If Mr. Ye thinks something is inappropriate, you can also say it directly, we were originally discussing, didn't we?"
However, Bai Gaolan still didn't say a word in his heart, that is to bargain for a one-time kill, this is common sense, although it is a bit exaggerated to kill five hundred directly, but it is also a room left 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, this is no longer something that can be filled by the number of people.
Ye Zhiying saw that he was speechless, so he continued: "If you follow my original example, a whole animal skin is worth an army of one million, but whether an army of one million can kill a king-level beast I believe that Bai Taishou also knows it in his heart, not to mention that my price is still eight thousand for one hundredth, is 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 fight, this is a matter of defending your homeland, and buying the corpse of a king-level alien beast now is completely different." ”
"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 invulnerable leather armor are equipped on the soldiers, their combat ability can instantly match the elite of the Tiger Army, and if it is the elite army equipment of the Tiger 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 auction 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 of 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 he was Qin Wu's subordinate, just a small follower, but now that they heard Qin Wu call him like this, it must not be an incompetent person, thinking of this, their eyes when they looked at Ye Zhiying suddenly became much more respectful and polite.
Ye Zhiying walked forward and said to the people of the Northern Alliance: "My name is Ye Zhiying, don't say anything else, let me talk about what we need, and what they occupy." ”
"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 beast, limited to 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 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 limit is fifty percent, by the way, the arrows should be made of iron, not flint arrows. ”
"There are also cultivated land and minerals, this exchange example 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 limit of this item is ten percent of the carcass of the beast, the category is not limited, that is, the skin, bones, animal tendons are bundled together. ”
"In addition, it can also be all kinds of treasures, it can be precious materials or medicinal materials, as long as you think it is a valuable treasure, you can discuss it, limited to ten percent, and the same category is not limited......
Ye Zhiying recited a long list in a row, and after the people present heard these conditions, the atmosphere of the audience 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, it is an example that Ye Zhiying listed 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 collect these things is actually because the amount is too large, and it is no longer just money that can buy them, 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 he directly takes the city, if he wants to recruit a large number of people, it is not something that can be solved by money and reputation alone. Moreover, if you recruit yourself, the recruited soldiers will be mixed, and you will have to train them step by step, and then you will have a lot of financial and material resources. In contrast, it is much more convenient to buy troops directly from these princes and magnates, although the soldiers they buy may have people they have installed, but after all, they are not from the same city, 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 example 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 the price, but what if it is a well-made arrow? You must know that the things forged in the extreme 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 grain to 200,000 stones, and considering that the amount of animal tendons is obviously impossible to be the same as animal skins and animal bones, and the use of animal tendons is much less, so Ye Zhiying uses 51% of this item for 51%.
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, there must be its own logistics production base, if you rely on businessmen alone, then isn't it businessmen who say that they can cut off food and cut off food, and they 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 controlled by 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 talents of generals 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 finding a way 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 in terms of 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, the soldiers must also have talents in this area, and when the time comes, it will be good to take a little effort to select them, and it will not have much to do with those generals, as long as they are obedient......
After waiting for a while, the people of the Northern Alliance below also discussed it, they all had the same opinion, 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 accept it if the price was not just 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.
