Chapter 261 64 taels of silver, deal!

"Don't worry, my grand master hasn't finished talking yet." Lin Yi saw that Zhang Xianzhong agreed very readily, and he felt more confident.

Li Dingguo, a famous general, can he do it for just 50000 taels?The big head is still behind!

As a special soldier of later generations, Lin Yi also has the knowledge of public relations negotiations.

Zhang Xianzhong was taken aback, "What else can Mr. Lin say?"

Lin Yi said: "Li Dingguo's price is the same as Li Guo's father and son, both are 5 taels of silver. But the difference between them is that Li Guo and his son did not stay in my camp for two days, while Li Dingguo stayed in my camp. For more than a month, how much did he spend eating, drinking, and drinking? Lin had to send someone to guard him. From Xiangyang to Jingzhou, the mountains and rivers are so far away. For such a long distance, it is still difficult to transport him here in a prison truck or in a wooden cage. It will consume a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, among other things, the food is too expensive. Jingxuan also knows that after years of famines, the food is now in grains. After more than a month of eating, drinking and lodging, plus there are special personnel Those who serve him eat, drink, and stay in the hotel. When they are sick, they have to be visited by a doctor. These doctors eat, drink, and stay in the hotel. If you calculate it in one day, you can calculate how much money you get for staying in the hotel. You can calculate it yourself. The barracks of the Grand Master is not a hotel It is much more expensive than the hotel. After more than a month, the cost of this aspect alone is more than 49 million taels of silver, plus other expenses, it will be 5 taels of silver, and then together with the 64 taels Add it all together, and Lin has calculated it all together, which is 3 taels of silver, no fraction, and a total of 2 taels of silver."

Zhang Xianzhong, who was doing Ji Yi's calculations, blinked his eyes, never expecting that behind the 50000 taels of silver, there is actually so much silver.How many 50000 taels is this?

Sun Kewang, Ai Nengqi, Pan Duao, Xu Yixian, Bai Wenxuan, Ma Weixing, Liu Jinzhong and others beside Zhang Xianzhong also grinned. Isn't this kid crazy?First it cost 5 taels, and now it costs 64 taels. This is really a big mouth for a lion!

Xiaoying and Zhezhe next to Lin Yi, with their mouths pursed and their faces sullen, thought about having fun but didn't dare to. They secretly thought that Big Brother Lin really knew how to do business, was careful in planning, and would be a peerless good man in the future.

Hao Yaoqi, Zu Keyong, Zhang Hua and others couldn't help laughing. Our little grand master is really good at blackmailing people. The 5 taels of silver suddenly turned to 64 taels. I don't know if it will be doubled again. .

There are also some worries about whether Zhang Xianzhong, who has been taken advantage of, can pay so much money. Does he have so much money? 64 taels, that's silver!If the bow is pulled too full and broken, wouldn't it be empty?
Zhang Xianzhong is really not an idiot, and now he feels that he has been fooled. Lin Yi first set up a ecstasy formation for him, thinking that it is very cheap. If you know this is the case, you must not agree so readily.This kid surnamed Lin is too ghostly, he actually wants 64 taels of silver, he is drinking blood!

This is not because Zhang Xianzhong was stingy. In the end of the Ming Dynasty, the annual income of the whole country was only tens of millions of taels, and 64 taels was definitely a huge sum of money, roughly equivalent to the annual food expenditure of [-] troops.

Don't look at Zhang Xianzhong's wealth, all the silver in Zhang Xianzhong's hands is only 100 million taels, and if he wants to give most of the silver to Ji Dong, will his 10,000+ people drink the northwest wind?
After Zhang Xianzhong hesitated, Lin Yi said: "Zhang Jingxuan, if you think this deal is not worth it, it's okay. It's too late to regret it now. At worst, I will send someone to escort Li Dingguo to the capital and hand it over to the emperor. The emperor's Long Yan is very happy." , Rewards are indispensable, fame and fortune are also good, why are you so reluctant and embarrassing?"

"Hahaha," Zhang Xianzhong laughed, "Master Lin, you underestimate me, Zhang Jingxuan, isn't it just 640000 taels of silver? Let's finish this time, as long as you hand over Li Dingguo to me unscathed, 640000 taels of silver will be worth [-] taels of silver." Even two silver coins will not miss you."

Lin Yi secretly admired in his heart, Zhang Xianzhong really lived up to his reputation, he has a chivalrous chest and the arms of an emperor.Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.If it weren't for the fact that I, Lin Yi, couldn't bear to harm Li Dingguo, and it was impossible for him to surrender now, a general like Li Dingguo, let alone 64 taels of silver, even if you offered 640 million taels of silver, I, Lin Yi, would not be able to exchange it with you.

Now I have no choice but to fight the economic battle for Lao Zhang, just like Li Guo and Li Laiheng, father and son of Li Zicheng, who couldn't bear to harm him, but refused to surrender. It would be costly and risky to keep him, so it would be better to let him go , for some silver flowers.

Lin Yi nodded, "Okay, he really is a cheerful person. 640000 taels of silver, in exchange for the captive Li Dingguo, a deal!"

At this time, counselor Xu Yixian touched Zhang Xianzhong and gave him a wink. Zhang Xianzhong understood, and said to Lin Yi: "However, Mr. Lin's 64 taels of silver is not a small amount. You have to raise it no matter what. After three days, I will pay the silver." How about you let him go?"

Lin Yi said: "Three days is three days. But we have to put the ugly words to the front. If you want to come to a plank road during this period to secretly hide Chen Cang or something, then don't blame me, Lin Yi, for not reminding you, Lin will just tear up the ticket and kill people! It may not be your turn to collect Li Dingguo's body when the time comes."

Zhang Xianzhong patted his chest and swore: "Hehe, Mr. Lin is joking. Who am I, Zhang Jingxuan, I must have heard of it. I always mean what I say."

"Hehe," Lin Yi also laughed when he heard this, "Of course Lin has heard of Zhang Jingxuan's name, but he has also heard the story of the Chexiangxia and Gucheng uprisings. joke."

When Lin Yi said this, Zhang Xianzhong's big yellow face immediately turned red, almost the same color as Guan Yunchang's face.

Because the Chexiangxia and Gucheng uprisings mentioned by Lin Yi were all Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai and others who used fraudulent surrender tactics to deceive the court and the army.After surrendering, they turned back, and after turning back, they surrendered. Their faces were faster than chameleons, and they played the officers and soldiers and Emperor Chongzhen like monkeys.

Now that Lin Yi said it in front of so many people, Zhang Xianzhong felt as if he had been exposed in public, and thinking about the sworn promise just now, he felt as if he was pulling his own face.

At this time, Pan Duao, Zhang Xianzhong's counselor, saw that Zhang Xianzhong was very embarrassed, and took over the words, "What Mr. Lin said is all about the past, how can it be compared with today's events, this time is different from that time, In broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of everyone, since our lord has said it, it will definitely count."

"Well, Lin also believes that Zhang Jingxuan must keep his word, so let's meet here at this time in three days' time." After Lin Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand to the back, "Take back the troops and return to the camp!"

Ji Dong took his troops and left.

Seeing the soldiers below the city receding like a tide, Lin Yi's figure and Li Dingguo's shadow in the prison car also blurred, and finally disappeared. Zhang Xianzhong stood at the top of the city without saying a word for a long time.

"My lord, do you really plan to give 64 taels of silver to Lin in three days?" Pan Duao said.

"Let's save the person first, what can we do?" Zhang Xianzhong said, with a long sigh.

"Of course it's important to save people. Let alone 64 taels of silver, even if he wants 100 million, he has to give it. What the subordinates mean is that we can't just take advantage of Lin. After saving General Li Dingguo, he has to think about it." There is a way to get back the 64 taels of silver, otherwise the food and pay in our army will not last for many days, if there is a shortage of food and pay in the army, there will be chaos without a fight, the prince should think twice."

Zhang Xianzhong's eyes lit up, "Of course it would be better to get it back, what's your opinion?"

Pan Duao said: "Your Majesty does not dare to be a high-minded man, so we immediately sent people to spread the news, the focus is to rush to the capital and Luoyang, and immediately exchange Lin Yi and us, as well as Zicheng, for the captives with money. It spread to the ears of Beijing and Yang Sichang. It is said that Lin Yi was so bold that he dared to exchange the court's felons for silver coins. His crime, if we go out of the city to hunt him down again, the money will still be ours, and by then it will be more than 64 taels, and if he eats it, the surname Lin will spit it out even more!"

"Sure enough, it's a good plan, sir." Zhang Xianzhong immediately arranged it...

After Lin Yi took Li Dingguo and others back to the camp, Hao Yaoqi, Zu Keyong and others came to Lin Yi's camp to discuss matters.

"Master, after 3 days, will Zhang Xianzhong honestly hand over money to redeem him?" Hao Yaoqi asked worriedly.

Lin Yi smiled, "Hehe, I feel old if I call you that. In front of Zhang Xianzhong, I deliberately pretended to be a Grand Master. When I return to the camp, we don't have to be so polite. Let's call me the General." "

"No, General." Hao Yaoqi quickly changed his words.

Lin Yi thinks it's pleasant to call it this way, "Zhang Xianzhong will never dare to play tricks this time, because the hostage is in our hands, unless he really doesn't want this godson anymore, Lin doesn't know how the relationship between father and son is, but Li Dingguo is the enemy of ten thousand people, he is Zhang Xianzhong's right-hand man, Zhang Xianzhong must be reluctant to part with it, besides, he can afford 64 taels of silver now."

Zu Keyong said: "The general is right. I also think that the 64 taels of silver will definitely be in hand in three days. However, it is unknown whether they will have any conspiracy or tricks at that time. Zhang Xianzhong and others People are thieves, and when dealing with these thieves, we must be more careful to avoid being fooled."

Lin Yi said: "Brother Zu is right. But after the money was replaced, even if Zhang Xianzhong didn't play any tricks or plots, Lin couldn't finish the settlement with him. If he took his money, he would still have to beat him. I, Ji Dong, still have to take his Jingzhou, if he has any tricks, let him do it!"

Lin Yi laughed loudly at the end.

At the third watch of the night, some eloquent people were quietly released from Jingzhou City. These people were dressed in black, and after leaving Jingzhou, they took enough silver to go to Luoyang and the capital for activities...

The three days are very short, and it will be over in a blink of an eye, because during these three days, apart from practicing martial arts every day, Lin Yi spent a very nourishing life in the camp with wine, meat, beauties, singing and dancing.

Hearing that the day to collect the cash is coming, Lin Yi is in high spirits and full of energy. Accompanied by Xiaoying and Zhezhe, he is neatly dressed and covered with soft armor, leaving Zu Keyong to lead the troops to guard the camp. Hao Yaoqi ordered 2 horses, and with enough horses and chariots, escorted Li Dingguo, and went out of the camp gate to Chen Bing again by the moat.

At this time, the suspension bridge of Jingzhou City was lowered, the thousand-jin gate was lifted, and the city gate was opened wide. Zhang Xianzhong led Sun Kewang and Ai Nengqi, and countless people rushed out of the city. A few hundred meters away, line up with Ji Dong's men and horses.
