Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 327 We really can't afford to mess with you (Second update)
Chunni stepped forward: "You are a bit hostile, and you seem to hate Japanese pirates very much."

Li Changfeng nodded: "Yes, I want to kill Japanese pirates when I see them."

Chunni frowned slightly, but didn't say much.

Along the way, she heard Zhou Jianbo and others talk about the behavior of the Japanese pirates in recent years, and she also felt that she deserved to die.

But she always felt that Li Changfeng seemed to be not only because of this.

After arranging this matter, Li Changfeng ordered to go ashore to rest.

The only thing to do now is to wait.

He believed that the emperor would make the right choice.

Soon, the news reached the Emperor Palace.

The emperor was furious, roaring crazily in the hall.

"Baga! Li Changfeng is too arrogant! He simply didn't pay attention to my Great Japanese Empire!"

"My Great Japanese Empire can never bear such humiliation, and must fight back hard!"

"Aren't they resting on the shore? Hit me with a catapult, I don't believe it won't break!"

As soon as this remark came out, all the ministers in the hall panicked and tried to persuade them.

"Your Majesty must not! This will provoke an all-out war with Dagan!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, today's Daqian is not what it used to be, you can't act recklessly!"

"If Li Changfeng is annoyed, maybe he will bring a large army to kill him, and then we will destroy the country!"

"Nanman and Beihu are both lessons from the past. We really can't afford to mess with them!"

"Yeah, with only five ironclad warships, half of our navy has been lost. What should we use to fight them?"

"There is an old saying in Dagan that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. Swallow this breath first, and then it will not be too late to take revenge when our Japanese pirate country has these things in the future!"

"..."

What the ministers said was like pouring a basin of cold water on the emperor's head.

He slumped on the ground powerlessly, with a look of unwillingness, and muttered to himself: "Why does Dagan have a genius like Li Changfeng, but my Great Japanese Empire doesn't have one? God is so unfair!"

No matter how unwilling the emperor is, he has to accept the reality.

He can't afford Li Changfeng.

In desperation, he could only start raising money.

……

half a month later.

A convoy pulled heavy wooden boxes and came to the coast.

The leader was a prince, who was very respectful when he saw Li Changfeng, and obediently knelt on the ground to pay respects according to the etiquette.

"Meet His Royal Highness Dagan Ninth Prince!"

Li Changfeng didn't let him get up, and said calmly, "Did you bring the money?"

The prince was a little annoyed, but because the last envoy had his legs chopped off and thrown into the sea, he didn't dare to say anything, and said with a forced smile on his face, "I brought you Your Highness. I was a little nervous about the war against Korea. Now that the funds are finally all in place, I feel a little uneasy to trouble Your Highness to pick it up in person!"

Li Changfeng smiled coldly: "Really?"

Cold sweat suddenly broke out on the prince's forehead, he felt his throat was dry, and said in a hoarse voice: "Of course it is true, the small country of Japanese pirates, how can it be compared with Daqian."

"Hmph!" Li Changfeng snorted coldly, "Stop talking nonsense, the late fee of 20 taels, are you ready?"

"It's ready, it's on the carriage, it's really my Japanese pirate country's fault, and I should pay for it!"

"Are you prepared for the 100 million taels of silver this time?"

"I'm ready, of course I'm ready!"

Hearing this, Li Changfeng was slightly surprised.

He thought that the Japanese pirates would negotiate terms on this matter, and it might take a lot of effort to get it, but he didn't expect them to be so happy.

Sure enough, he is a soft bone who bullies the weak and fears the hard.

Li Changfeng nodded in satisfaction: "That's good."

The prince wiped the cold sweat off his forehead again, and said cautiously: "However, we have a small condition that is insignificant to you."

As soon as the words fell, Li Changfeng's face darkened.

"Who gave you the guts to make conditions with this prince?"

The prince quickly said: "It's just a small condition. We only hope that Daqian will not sell weapons such as gunpowder and artillery to Korea!"

This is the condition that the emperor specially gave him before he came.

A payment of 50 taels, a late fee of 20 taels, plus a military expenditure of 100 million taels, that is 170 million taels of silver.

Even if it is the Japanese pirate country, it would be a bit traumatic to take out so much money all at once, and it is necessary to grab more silver from the Koryo country.

They are slightly stronger than Goryeo, and they have been fighting against Goryeo all the time. The only thing that can change this situation is the artillery and grenade.

The emperor did not want Goryeo to have these things.

Regarding the attitude towards the war between the two countries, Li Changfeng has always held the attitude of sitting back and watching dogs bite dogs, so he nodded and said: "It is a war between your two countries. This prince has no intention of intervening. You can rest assured about that."

The prince let out a sigh of relief.

"That's good, thank you Your Highness!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and shouted to the back: "What are you still doing in a daze? Bring all the money up!"

Soon, boxes and boxes of silver were brought up, and Li Changfeng sent someone to count them, and there was no shortage of one or two coins.

"If I knew today, why did I do it at the beginning?" Li Changfeng looked at the white silver and sneered.

170 million taels, plus the 30 taels looted from Ito Qiantang's ship, the harvest of this trip reached a full 200 ​​million taels.

It's worth the trip!
The most important thing is to let out a bad breath.

The prince laughed dryly, looked at Chito Ito who was hanging up on the bow with his mouth covered, and said cautiously: "Your Highness, that is the admiral of our Japanese pirates, can you let him go?"

Li Changfeng smiled coldly: "Let him go, will you pay 30 taels of silver?"

"This... let's forget it!"

Chito Ito is the strongest admiral of the Japanese pirate country, and he is very important to the Japanese pirates. When he came, the emperor had an account, and he must rescue Chito Ito.

But looking at the situation now, he didn't dare to say a word.

In case Li Changfeng is offended, what if he is also detained?
Although the emperor and him are blood brothers, but from his understanding, he will not give out money to redeem him at all, he can only pay for it himself, and then he will be poor and useless.

In fact, Li Changfeng really had such an idea.

Just considering that this might make the Japanese pirates desperately fight him, they dismissed such an idea. After all, detaining members of the royal family would have too much impact.

When the Japanese pirates and Goryeo are almost consumed in the future, it will not be too late to sweep them up.

Three days after the prince left, members of Ito Qiantang's family came to redeem him with 30 taels of silver.

After counting the quantity and confirming that it was correct, Li Changfeng kept his promise and released Ito Qiantang, and then ordered to return to Dagan without staying for a moment.

There was almost no silver on board when they came, but there were 230 million taels of silver when they left. Everyone was very excited.

This is the benefit of a strong country. You only need to bring the armored warships over to deter them, and the enemy will obediently pay for it.
