Chapter 290 Liu Jishan is fooling ([-])

Liu Jishan has already taken advantage of the negotiating field by fooling around. Firstly, it is due to the fact that the height of the emperor's strategy is high enough; secondly, Lin Danhan was squeezed by Huang Taiji and the Mongolian right wing, and the pressure of survival was extremely high. The proud head came down to negotiate in a low voice and made a lot of patience; thirdly, Liu Jishan's intelligence was very accurate, and he made the opponent's details clear; fourthly, the Ming Dynasty really wanted to join forces with Lin Danhan to deal with Dong The conditions given are also quite sincere.Combining several advantages, Liu Jishan gradually took the initiative on the negotiating table and gained an advantage.

Lin Danhan was helpless and very annoyed.

The Mongolian old man took the conversation and said: "Ming Dynasty envoy, how much can you Ming Dynasty pay for these heads?" .

"Hehe, the price I offered was very high, three taels of silver per head. Of course, the head of a strong man from Donglu is worthless if it belongs to a woman or child. Of course, if it is from the leader of Donglu, The price is much higher, and you can get several times the price. If you can get the head of Donghu Huang Taiji, even if it costs ten thousand gold, you can be a prince." Liu Jishan began to talk about the price of wild boar skin heads, and Mongolia People haggle.

"Three taels of silver? Isn't this too cheap? If I remember correctly, the rewards that the Ming Dynasty gave to its own officers and soldiers were as much as 30 taels [Rewards from the Qi Family Army]. Two taels of silver? The envoy of the Ming Dynasty made a mistake." The Mongolian old man asked in disbelief.

"Hehe, old man, this emissary is right. It's three taels, or a stone of grain, or something else. As long as you can bring the head, after verification, you can exchange it for anything you want. The old man may think that three taels is too little, but actually , It’s already a lot, you know, it’s worth sweating for nothing, I’ve tried my best to take out these three taels of silver, and this can’t be calculated according to my standard, I will only open it to boost morale. With such a high reward, the record is really not good enough. Therefore, the actual reward I pay is quite limited, and the three taels of silver that I gave to Da Khan, with Da Khan's ability, can cost a few dollars in one shot. Qiandong captive head, if I honor it, I will spend tens of thousands of taels of silver at one time, tens of thousands of taels! Sweat, it is not a small amount for me, hehe, so I can’t just look at both sides The price depends on how much the two sides can actually get. With the Khan's combat power, the reward he can get is definitely several times that of our imperial army. If the account is calculated like this, can the Khan understand?" Liu Jishan used his three With a penetrating tongue, he flicked these Mongolians to his heart's content.

The Mongols are stupid, the envoys of the Ming Dynasty are very shameless, they can even give such an excuse, but this is also the truth, although the rewards offered by the Ming Dynasty to themselves are quite high, it is a pity that those who can get the rewards, get The number of rewards is quite small, and if you look at the results of the battle between Lin Danhan and Donglu, even if you are at a disadvantage, the number of killing Donglu far exceeds the Ming Dynasty itself, so the rewards you get , will definitely be more than the Ming Dynasty.

"The envoys of the Ming Dynasty are really too few, but we can't accept [-]% of the Ming Dynasty's own. At least five taels of silver, or two stones of grain for a head, and, belonging to The Mongols and Han people of the Eastern Captives are also counted in this, and they are all limited to adult men, women and children are not included. If they are elite fighters from the Eastern Captives, the price will be doubled. How about multiplying the price of elite fighters by several times... and more, how about using the "reward for capturing slaves" before the Ming Dynasty?" The Mongolian old man doubled the price as soon as he made a counter-offer. He is also a master at bargaining.

Liu Jishan’s authorization from the emperor was to exchange a stone of grain for a head. Of course, this is an ideal state, and the emperor did not necessarily use this as a standard. Liu Jishan was in a dilemma because it was not the driest season yet, and the most difficult days had not yet arrived. Although the price of grain was high, it was far from the point where a few buckets of rice could be exchanged for a head.

Liu Jishan was very embarrassed. This matter exceeded the authorization given to him by the emperor. Five taels of silver, according to the current market, can buy almost two shi of grain.

"Hehe, old man, to be honest, this price is a bit difficult to deal with! It's too high!" Liu Jishan shook his head and rejected the proposal of the Mongolian old man. In fact, the price of five taels of silver to buy a head may not be very high. Well, if millions of taels of silver can be used to pacify the scourge of Donglu, the people of the Ming Dynasty will agree with both hands and feet. However, negotiation is negotiation, and it is necessary to lower the price.

Lin Danhan smiled, waved the whip in his hand, and said: "Messenger, since the emperor of the Ming Dynasty gave Ben Khan a huge gift, and Ben Khan hasn't returned the gift, so, these few days, Ben Khan sent People, go to Donglu and take three hundred authentic Donglu heads as a gift to the Ming emperor. First, it also shows the sincerity of this Khan; Based on five taels of silver, the heads are exchanged. In this way, the envoy can receive the heads of authentic Donglu as quickly as possible, and the silver is just a little more. If the Ming Dynasty can obtain [-] authentic Donglu heads , it should be celebrated by the whole country, so why care about a little money? Isn’t it? If this can be done, the envoy will get great credit if he doesn’t waste his efforts! In front of the emperor, it’s easy to make a deal..." Lin Danhan Seeing that the negotiations have reached an impasse, immediately throw out a weight.

Three hundred authentic Donglu heads, this number exceeds the number of heads obtained in the Jinning victory in the Ming Dynasty. This is the result of Lin Danhan teasing Liu Jishan with the heads. Of course, Lin Danhan knows that there are more than 200 heads , can make the entire Ming Dynasty celebrate and call it a great victory. This matter is also a laughing stock on the grassland. Lin Danhan is confident that it is not difficult to take three hundred heads by himself. The thing that raises the price of the head.

Even though Liu Jishan is thick-skinned, he was embarrassed by Lin Danhan's teasing. Indeed, Jinning's victory, the number of people who really confirmed the head, is more than 200. This is called a great victory. It is really deceiving yourself. It's embarrassing enough.

Liu Jishan's brain turned sharply, and after several quick calculations, he also had an idea in his mind. The emperor's trust, the emperor's strategy, and the emperor's intention were not to haggle over the reward.

"Okay! Since Da Khan is so forthright, the envoy is waiting for Da Khan's head. The price of the head is based on Da Khan's intention, which is based on five taels of silver. As long as Da Khan can send the head and verify it is correct, Immediately change it to silver, and it’s not a lot of money, how about it?” Liu Jishan generously agreed to Lin Danhan’s request, and increased the silver from three taels to five taels, of course, also dug a hole for Lin Danhan, Prepare to put Lin Danhan together in the future.

"Okay! The envoy is really a straightforward person, so it's settled. Ben Khan will immediately send troops to take three hundred heads from the envoy to show the sincerity of this Khan's alliance." Lin Danhan laughed from ear to ear, and said to himself It's just a slight mention of the scars of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty man couldn't stand it, and agreed to raise the price of the head to five taels. This is really a good deal. Winners and losers, casualties are thousands, or even tens of thousands, if they are all exchanged for silver, it is really a very cost-effective deal, it can be said that it is for nothing.

Liu Jishan was also smiling, and he secretly set up an ambush for Lin Danhan, saying: "Okay! Khan is really refreshing, so it's a deal! Donglu's head, I have always had means of verification in my dynasty. This point, everyone Khan needs to rely mainly on what I have verified, and cannot use human heads as fakes. I should remind Khan of this point."

"It's no problem. Ben Khan promises that no human head will be used to impersonate it. It must be the head of an authentic Donglu. Of course, the messenger, I can say that the Mongolian tribes who have taken refuge in Donglu, including the Han people, are also Those who belonged to the Eastern Captives, their adult males also came out to fight, so these heads are also counted, of course, they are adults, not adults, women and children are not counted, how, this Khan is sincere enough." Lin Dan Khan has seen this right. Nowadays, many tribes who have taken refuge in Donglu are still Mongols, and even many Han people. It is a bit difficult to kill [-] real Donglu men, but with these Mongolians who have taken refuge in Donglu However, it is quite simple to use the head of the Han people to make up the number.

"No problem, as long as the Great Khan does not impersonate, we have plenty of ways to determine whether they are from the Eastern Captives. Even the Mongols and Han people who have just defected to the Eastern Captives are counted. The Great Khan just takes the head. This emissary is It is unequivocal to give money when you see the head. In addition, if the man is not yet a man, the price is set at one tael, and he will buy it together. If there is a big sweat, he will also send it." Liu Jishan accepted it indifferently, and the emperor was giving it to him. The project of registering Donglu's household registration, the population of that family, and which male belongs to which Niulu, the Ming Dynasty knows all about it.

"Fresh!" Lin Dan Khan now fully believes in the sincerity of the people of the Ming Dynasty to unite with him, laughing heartily. He can get thousands of heads and 2 taels of silver in one battle. This expectation is far away. Far exceeded his original expectations.

Liu Jishan nodded with a smile.

The Mongolian old man opened his eyes and said: "Ming Dynasty envoy, there is one more thing I want to mention, that is, the mutual market between our two families. The Ming Dynasty promised us this matter before. The Ming Dynasty contributed a lot, but now, with the further alliance of the two, shouldn't the mutual market be expanded?"

Liu Jishan said boldly: "Don't worry about this old man, don't worry about sweating, I have always admitted this matter, and I am serious about it. The horse market of our two families is here. The place where we stand, everyone Here, Khan can buy the same things as in the previous horse market, or even more, so don’t worry, Khan.”

"Here?" Not only Lin Danhan was surprised, but also the Mongolian old man, Hongyi Lama!
"Yes, it's here. This place." Liu Jishan chose this place, which is close to the Xiaoling River, with Jinzhou to the north, and can rely on Jinzhou's defense.

"Messenger, why is it here? The Ming Dynasty is not afraid of our Mongols' tricks?" Lin Danhan was confused, this is the confidant area outside the Ming Dynasty's pass!The horse market was set up here, and the people of the Ming Dynasty were not afraid that the Mongols would suddenly turn their backs and plunder the people of the Ming Dynasty?Hitting the grass valley is a Mongolian tradition.

"Tricking things? Hehe, the Great Khan and our court are united. We believe in the Great Khan and believe that the Great Khan can control his subordinates. Both of them have a common enemy. I believe that the Great Khan can understand our painstaking efforts. Don’t worry about the Khan’s tricks.” Liu Jishan said so, in fact, Liu Jishan was not afraid of the Mongols’ tricks at all. For one thing, now that there are hand grenades defending the city, who dares to climb the city wall of the Ming Dynasty?Before the grenades are exhausted, it is difficult for the Mongols to get close to the city wall with their little ability. If you get angry with Ming Dynasty and break the alliance with him, he will immediately be like a kite with a broken string, unable to float a few times, which is more important, as long as Lin Danhan is not a fool, he will understand.

Lin Danhan's mind was relatively simple, and when he heard Liu Jishan say this, he nodded, thinking that what he was talking about was, since the Ming Dynasty was not afraid of attacking Caogu by himself, why did he care about so much?If the people of the Ming Dynasty wanted to talk about defending the city, they were capable, but if they wanted to talk about field battles, Lin Danhan looked down on them.

But obviously, the Mongolian old man is not easy to deal with, said: "The envoy of the Ming Dynasty set up the horse market under the city of Jinzhou, but is he afraid that the eastern captives will come to plunder?"

"Hehe, old man, that's right, and that's what it means. Jinzhou is now the largest city in the frontier of my border. It's safer to set up the horse market here. There will definitely be quite a lot of supplies in the horse market. Once It was plundered by Donglu, and the loss of our two families is not small. Isn’t it cheaper for Donglu? Besides, now that our two families are united, the defense lines are even closer. What do you think, old man?" Liu Jishan explained.

"Since that's the case, why not set up our horse markets in Xuan and Da? There used to be a horse market for trade with Mongolia. If you set it up there, you don't need to worry about the Eastern captives. Envoy of the Ming Dynasty, what do you think?" The Mongolian old man felt that abnormality was a demon, and he didn't believe that the people of the Ming Dynasty would be so kind, so he asked tentatively.

"Hehe, old man, there is actually another meaning. I didn't explain it. The old man must have heard about my relief of tens of millions of taels of silver to His Majesty." Liu Jishan began to fool around.

"Well, I've heard it. Speaking of it, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is worthy of being rich all over the world! He is the richest person in the world. Ten million taels of silver will pile up into a mountain." The old man said 1000 million taels Baiyin also has bright eyes, which is a huge fortune no matter what.The Mongols are very happy every year in the Ming Dynasty's mutual market and earn a few silver. Compared with the tens of millions of taels of silver from the Ming Dynasty emperor, it is really incomparable.

"Hey... Now that the old man knows it, don't he understand? Why do you spend so much money on disaster relief? Because I pointed out to His Majesty, God and Man, that if I head north, there will be continuous drought, so the grain harvest in the north will be poor. Supplies are in short supply, so we have to mobilize food and supplies from the south, travel long distances, have difficulty in transshipment, and consume a lot of money. It is really too difficult to support the Great Khan from land. Therefore, His Majesty specifically requests that all materials related to the Great Khan , all go by sea, and go ashore directly in Jinning, so that the huge consumption of land transshipment can be offset, otherwise, at that time, Lin Danhan will not be able to buy a stone of grain for fear of ten taels of silver. Ah! Sincerely cooperate with Da Khan, and Da Khan knows that when I go to Mao Wenlong’s department, the supplies have always been shipped by sea, directly from the south to Mao Wenlong. By sea, not by land. Therefore, the horse market was established here for the convenience of transportation. I am connected to the defense line of the Great Khan, back to back, and the Great Khan is here to get supplies. Wouldn’t it be better? It’s much closer than the exchange market from Xuanda, isn’t it? So, in the future, Da Khan’s transactions, exchange markets, receiving supplies and so on will all come here, and the inland side wall will not go, because there is no need for Da Khan things..." Liu Jishan acted like I was doing it for your own good.

Lin Danhan, Nari Nai, and Lama Hongyi were all dumbfounded!It's not for anything else, but for the man of God that Liu Jishan said.Mongols believe in Buddhism very much. They believe that there are gods and Buddhas in the world. Now they are stunned to hear a Ming Dynasty official, the emperor's confidant special envoy say that the emperor got advice from a god in his dream!What was even more astonishing was that the Ming Dynasty actually used tens of millions of taels of silver to relieve disasters according to the emperor's dream. Doesn't this mean that the emperor really dreamed of a god?Otherwise, the ministers would let the emperor play like this?These people all have a lot of desire to seek longevity and the true God. Now that Liu Jishan has said that they are focused on negotiating with the people of the Ming Dynasty, most of them have gone to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. It was just a rumor before. Believe it or not It's still in between, but now, officials of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's confidants said it himself, and the credibility has naturally increased greatly, and the attractiveness of it is naturally different.

Lin Dan Khan forgot that he was Lin Dan Khan, the Great Khan of Mongolia, he also forgot that he was in a disadvantageous situation, and he also forgot that he still had to fight the enemy to the death, and began to ask Liu Jishan sincerely: "Messenger, what A thing, but is it true? Are there really gods?"

Liu Jishan looked at Lin Danhan's pious appearance, looked at the clarity of Lin Danhan's eyes, and couldn't believe his own eyes. This is the murderous Lin Danhan?
"Khan, this matter is absolutely true. This envoy has personally experienced it. At the beginning, when our court decided to provide disaster relief, but before the summer harvest even arrived, we decided to provide disaster relief. The scale is so large that To deal with the disasters that the gods and men said, hehe, if the advice of the gods and men is not true, I would be willing to spend tens of millions of taels of silver to do such nonsense?" Liu Jishan participated in the whole process of the emperor's prediction of the disaster in Shaanxi Yes, the process can be described as an insider.Speaking of it, I was filled with emotion, fortunately, the man of God pointed out His Majesty the Emperor, if he pointed out the enemy of the Ming Dynasty, then the land would sink and hell would come!
"Emperor Ming is indeed very lucky! It is really a blessing to be guided and valued by gods and men..." Lin Danhan said in an envious tone, with yearning, piety, and clarity in his eyes.

Liu Jishan looked at Lin Danhan and thought it was unbelievable that Lin Danhan, who killed 10,000+ people from the Mongolian right wing, would have such pious and clear eyes.
