People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 311 Compensation of 4800 million taels! Sign an unequal treaty!

And just as Chen Han expected, when Chen Han and the others were preparing to set off to fight in North Korea, the Franji people in the Strait of Malacca in Indochina sent a negotiation team to Haojing to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty.

This time they were not so arrogant. After seeing the strength of the Ming Dynasty's navy, and the Franji people knowing that there might be an immortal like Cao Zhengchun in the Ming Dynasty, their attitude suddenly improved.

Frankie always felt that if he could cross the ocean and come to Asia, he would have the ability to sweep the world.

Therefore, Asian countries have never been taken seriously, but this time they were kicked on the iron plate. They were pressed down and rubbed under their feet by Ming Dynasty.

Only then did I realize that I had underestimated Ming.

The negotiating team sent this time was still very high-standard. It was said that they were the deputy governor of the Frankie Governor's Palace in the Malacca Strait area.

Lieutenant Governor Joelson was in a particularly complicated mood at this time.

When he heard the report from the people on the boat that was deliberately let back, he was also frightened.

Although their fleet is not as powerful as the Invincible Fleet, it is not impossible to travel across all continents.

Li Rusong was quietly waiting for Frankie's arrival in Haojing. The moment he received the letter, he knew that Daming had still won, and the victory was quite exciting.

It is absolutely impossible to lose at the negotiating table.

After Li Rusong heard the translation, he almost laughed out loud, and then said directly, "According to what you mean, you occupy our land in Haojing and trade with our smugglers on the sea, and the illegal benefits you obtain are also Protected by what you call the law, right?"

But Li Rusong is not so easy to deal with.

Because of this, he now feels quite uneasy about this negotiation.

He spoke directly: "Since you people are asking for your property back, then we have to account for the plunder you people have plundered from us during the Ming Dynasty."

At the negotiation table, Li Rusong negotiated with Frankie as Haibedao's deputy envoy.

Joelson was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Rusong's words. He really didn't expect that Li Rusong had such a sophistry ability.

this……

This is the benefit of strong strength. These people looked down on you, but now they are demanding you.

So it was very uncomfortable.

Joelson did not expect that they would be asked to compensate.

He was afraid that people would kill him directly at the negotiation table.

"Why do you mention that we want compensation from you? You have this look on your face. What do you mean? Do you think you don't have to pay for the crimes you committed on our land?" Li Rusong saw the expression on Joelson's face. He asked unabashedly.

Joelson said directly as soon as he opened his mouth: "Dear Sir, now we just want to do business with Ming Dynasty normally, and at the same time, we also want Ming Dynasty to repay our investment in Haojing and our Frankie's fixed assets in Haojing. These are our own investments and we hope Daming can return them and respect the residents’ personal property rights.”

Joelson was really a little uncomfortable at this time, because in the previous decades they had been on the winning side of the negotiation table, dictating to the losing side, asking people to pay this and that. How had they ever been treated like this?

Therefore, they firmly believe that their family will not talk nonsense casually, and that Ming Dynasty does have the energy to destroy the world.

The expression on Joelson's face was indeed a bit embarrassing.

It is certain that the occupation of Haojing was without the consent of Ming Dynasty, but they have not thought about the issue of compensation.

This is really the slightest bit of knowledge blind spot. Because Frankie has only been responsible for occupying colonial areas in these years, no colonial area has ever been able to wrest it from their hands like Ming Dynasty.

So they haven't encountered this kind of thing.

After seeing the confusion on Joelson's face, Li Rusong did not make things difficult for him: "We in the Ming Dynasty also understand that you have been winning wars over the years. No other country requires you to compensate for occupying other countries' lands, so we will make an exception and give you a plan. ”

Although this was a nice thing to say, it was tantamount to a slap in the face when heard by messengers like Frankie.

Li Rusong's words meant that Frankie would have experience in dealing with claims from colonized areas. Why do we need this experience?
Li Rusong will not be polite to them. This time he not only wants Frankie to compensate, but also makes them suffer.

Dare to confront our Ming Dynasty head-on and prevent you from peeling off your skin? Can we let you go?
Li Rusong took out some data that Chelsea gave them and formulated a compensation plan.

"First of all, you have occupied our land for thirty-two years. Every year, you have to pay the land occupation fee first. The area of ​​Haojing is fifty thousand acres, and the annual usage fee per mu is one hundred taels of silver, which is fifty taels a year. Ten thousand taels of silver equals sixteen million taels of silver in thirty-two years.”

What?
Joelson was startled when he heard this number.

Sixteen million taels of silver?
so much?
Even if they have not earned so much silver in these thirty-two years.

Isn't this cheating?

"Dear Sir, are you trying to blackmail me?" Joelson said.

Frankie's other emissaries also protested loudly.

Seeing that they dared to protest, Li Rusong slammed the table: "Shut up! I ask you, don't I need to pay rent when I go to your country to occupy a piece of land? Why don't you agree? Are you willing?"

After asking this question, Joelson and others were speechless.

Li Rusong continued: "What's more, these lands were forcibly occupied by you without our consent. Shouldn't we be fined? You still have the nerve to shout, where do you get the donkey face?"

Joelson gritted his teeth in anger.

Then Li Rusong said again: "This is only the land use fee you have to pay for the past thirty-two years. The other thirty-two years of trade taxes, compensation for enslaving the people of the Ming Dynasty, late payment fees, war compensation, etc. will give you a discount of three in total." Twelve million taels.

So the total compensation is 48 million taels.

In addition to compensation, we have three additional contracts.

First, in your colonial area, our merchant ships from the Ming Dynasty can enter freely without paying customs duties;

Second, you must allocate at least three excellent ports to our Ming Dynasty in your colonial area;

Third, if the people of our Ming Dynasty commit crimes in your colonial area, you have no right to interrogate them and must hand them over to our Ming Dynasty.

Let me put it here. If you don’t sign this agreement today, tomorrow our fleet will appear in the Strait of Malacca, your colonial area. At that time, not only will we seize your colonial area, but we will also have to kill all the French. Guys, it's up to you. "

Joelson was so angry that his forehead turned black when he heard some of the treaties.

This is a completely unequal treaty.

Can I still sign this?
