Bringing Military Supplies to Ming Dynasty

“Well, Marquis of Zhongdan will do the calculations first, and I will just listen.” Jin Ying’s ability to observe beauty is so high, otherwise Zhu Qiyu will not be reused. The dissatisfaction that Yang Chendong showed was naturally in his eyes. In order to prevent the situation from freezing, he had to close his mouth obediently.

Jin Ying doesn’t interrupt anymore. Yang Chendong’s complexion is Much better, and he continues to say: “It’s correct to ask a mercenary to do a mission for 10,000 silver taels. But it’s also a mission. If it’s not for different levels. For example, some tasks are simple and easy to complete. Of course, this price is ok, but this time is based on less battles and more. If you use the previous price to calculate, obviously it will not work. Don’t hide Eunuch Jin, This Marquis has long seen the crisis of the situation, so he negotiated with a leader of the mercenary early and asked them for help at the price of 20,000 silver taels per person. This is what moved people. If you count it, Four hundred people is 8 million taels. Then add 1,000,000 taels for the military expenses and food of the other 10,000 soldiers of the city defense army. In the end, 1,000,000 taels are left for Eunuch’s hard expenses. I don’t think Eunuch Jin won’t. Reject it, so count it, This Marquis is the one who really thanked you, alas.”

Finally, I finished talking, but after saying everything, Yang Chendong still intentionally pretended It seemed that he had been aggrieved a lot, as if he had done these things, and he was just in vain.

Listen there, he was stared wide-eyed long ago when he heard that the cost of hiring only 400 elite soldiers was 8 million taels, and his face was unbelievable. No wonder he was so surprised. With 8 million two, tens of millions of soldiers can also find a way to get together, but now there are only 400 soldiers in the battle, this ratio is really too far apart.

But when Yang Chendong finished talking about everything and said that he had left him with 1,000,000 benefits, Jin Ying’s expression Much better looked a lot, and Yang Chendong was secretly sighed, no wonder this person Can you become good friends with Wang Zhen? This kind of stance that considers friends everywhere is very pleasing.

But when I think about it the other way round, the expenditure of 10,000,000 is so large that when it is reported to Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu, it may also be rejected, that is, he said with a bitter expression: “Marquis of Zhongdan, Your kindness is accepted by the public, but the number of 10,000,000 is really too much. See if you can reduce it by half, and the share of the public can also be halved.”

The benefits are also valued by Zhu Qiyu, and Jin Ying reluctantly said that, in this way, his benefits are also less than 500,000 taels. With this money, he can make more people become his cronies, which is an excellent thing for strengthening his strength.

This is how I want to be a bitch, and I want to stand up again. Yang Chendong in the heart scorned Jin Ying, and said with a very positive tone: “My 9 million is a silver taels, and of course, if Eunuch Jin wants to develop his spirit, , Then nine hundred and 500,000 taels are good.”

Obviously, Yang Chendong is missing 500,000 taels, which is the 500,000 taels less for Jin Ying.

The number is not at all. The only thing that’s changed is the benefit that’s all. How can this make Jin Ying happy and shook her head immediately: “How can this be? Now that’s the case, it’s 10,000,000 The silver pair is ready.”

Said that it was just finished, Jin Ying then said with a sad face, “But Marquis of Zhongdan, so many silver pairs are going to be produced all at once, I’m afraid His Imperial Majesty would not agree at all. There is also the Ministry of Households who may not be able to get that many money for a while.”

Seeing that Jin Ying has accepted this reality, Yang Chendong’s corner of the Mouth raised laughed, “Eunuch Jin doesn’t need to be embarrassed for this. This Marquis has already thought about the solution for His Imperial Majesty. The State Treasury can’t come up with so much money for a while, and this is the truth. Forget it, I think Eunuch Jin and This Marquis are both aware of it. But it is true that even His Imperial Majesty will be very distressed if he does take out 10,000,000 tael of silver at once. If this is the case, the State Treasury can advance 5,000,000 tael, presumably This number convinces His Imperial Majesty that he should be able to do it.”

It was halved at once, and Jin Ying was naturally overjoyed after hearing this, “Yes, if there are only 5,000,000 taels, His Imperial Majesty naturally makes a lot of sense. But in this way, how can the mercenaries make sense? Is it because the money should be paid in installments?”

“Of course not. How can the money for war be possible? How about staging? That will cause big problems.” Yang Chendong shook the head.

“I can’t install it, what should I do with the remaining 5,000,000 taels?” Jin Ying was a little confused by Yang Chendong.

“Don’t worry, Eunuch Jin, This Marquis thinks this way, aren’t there still many Imperial Family properties in the capital? For example, many houses and the land deeds of the palace belong to His Imperial Majesty owns them. It’s better to sell them to This Marquis at a discount. Just imagine, if the capital is really not guaranteed, these things are not something His Imperial Majesty said can be taken away, so it’s better to sell them cheaply. With This Marquis, serving as the 5 million silver taels means that this Marquis will naturally find a way to collect the 5,000,000 needed for war. The newly appointed High Official of the Ministry of Household Jin Lian also needs Eunuch Jin to take a trip, at least for the benefit Naturally, everyone will not be less.”

Laughed, Yang Chendong’s goal is to directly target good houses in the capital, which is also one of his goals for this trip.

People say that the antique of period of prosperity, the gold of troubled times. In fact, houses are also extremely cheap in times of trouble. When it matters, everyone will want to save their lives. Who will buy a house? I’m afraid that someone would dare to stay and live if it was a free gift at that time.

Yang Chendong understands this truth. Why is Jin Ying not clear about it?

Now that the Vala army outside the capital is approaching, people were alarmed, and housing prices are falling one by one day by day. Even so, there are still more people selling and fewer people buying. It can be said that this has become the least valuable thing at the moment.

And if this least valuable thing can be converted into silver to Yang Chendong, wouldn’t it be a good thing. With these houses, presumably Yang Chendong when the time comes is not going to do his best to protect the capital.

This also seems to be the best of both worlds. When the time comes, it will be easier to convince Zhu Qiyu as an excuse. Not to mention, he can still make some money from buying and selling the house next. As for the Ministry of Households, who would dare to stop them from doing things in their own capacity?

Thinking that the errands can be done well while still earning a fortune, Jin Ying’s face is obviously much better this time.

“Okay, okay, the intention of Marquis of Zhongdan is good, that is, this is the case. This guild will immediately report to His Imperial Majesty to know that it shouldn’t be difficult to do.” Jin Ying at this moment The confident expression was restored again, and things like a cut returned to his palm.

After Jin Ying had negotiated the conditions, she wanted to meet His Imperial Majesty Zhu Qiyu, and an eagerness appeared in her eyes. Regarding this, Yang Chendong didn’t want to think of getting up at all, but picked up his teacup and said slowly: “Eunuch Jin, there is one more thing I don’t know if you know, This Marquis was suddenly suspended by the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Speaking of which, this is the post sealed by His Imperial Majesty, I don’t know why?”

Jin Ying, who was thinking about how to report to Zhu Qiyu for a while, didn’t help but hear Yang Chendong said like this, and his face suddenly changed: “Is there such a thing? I don’t know it.”

“Oh, that should be the following people’s own opinion. Hehe, speaking of which is an Embroidered Uniform Guard commanding post that’s all, This Marquis is not very important. But at the time when the whole people are united in the fight against foreign enemies, if people know that This Marquis has been suspended, it is inevitable that some people will think and think. Did This Marquis do something wrong and provoke Holy Wrath. If this is the case, it would be extremely unfavorable for This Marquis to lead the battle.” Yang Chendong faint smiled, but I can see that the bottom line is still A trace of sullen anger, a little angry.

Jin Ying did not know this matter. Although the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was in charge of his promoted confidant, Lu Gui, not everything would be reported to him. His main responsibility is to stay with His Imperial Majesty and only report to him when a major event occurs.

So when Yang Chendong heard that he was suspended from his job at first, he was stunned. After hearing the consequences of this, I felt that the matter was a bit serious. At this moment, Yang Chendong’s authority really cannot be questioned. Otherwise, how can he lead the soldiers in battle, and how can they be prohibited?

“Marquis of Zhongdan, I really don’t know about this. Your commanding post is indeed sealed by His Imperial Majesty. Even if there is something, it should be done by His Imperial Majesty. Definitely, this time is Lu Gui and they overstepped, and also ask Marquis of Zhongdan not to care about it. Now my father can announce that your post of quagmire has been restored, and my father will also ask Lu Gui to pay you afterwards. It’s not.” Jin Ying, who knew the priority of the matter, immediately expressed her position and put Yang Chendong in an important position.

“Okay, let’s trouble Euuch Jin. Now that’s the case, This Marquis will go to inspect the city defenses and meet with the generals. By the way, it’s also troublesome for Eunuch Jin to hurry up on the matter of money. Soldiers will come to the city soon. If when the time comes is not in place, This Marquis can’t guarantee that the soldiers will be killed. As for the household department, I will arrange for my cousin Yang Fu to go there. If you have something, you can negotiate. “Yang Chendong finally got up. He has said everything that should be said, and everything that should be done has been done. It is time to make preparations before the war.

“Well, Marquis of Zhongdan, although you can do things with confidence, I will go to see His Imperial Majesty, and the money will be paid quickly.

“Okay, trouble Eunuch Jin is here. By the way, Lu Gui should be from Eunuch. That is to say, when the money has arrived, please ask this person to get this Marquis for your 1,000,000 taels. “Yang Chendong hehe laughed, and then Cup one fist in the other hand gave a salute and left the palace.
