Chen Xi has not made any decisions, Zhang Lian is already thinking about whether this deal is cost-effective.≯≧≥

The quality of the silver of Folang Jiren is not very good, but the key is that he is big. He has found someone to calculate earlier that a silver coin has about five cents of silver, and that person has sixty silver coins, a total of thirty taels of silver. More than 200 people were caught on the boat, which can get more than 6,000 taels of silver.

The plundered property on the ship does not need to be returned, at least seven or eight thousand taels of silver can be increased. It is really a great deal!

But the problem is... Even the prefect of Quanzhou, Zhang Lian did not have the power to deal with these foreign nationals, and even the imperial envoy Chen Xi, so this money is not easy to make!

It is best to make money by making money by vain and pretend to accept it first. When the Florian carries the silver coins and deducts the silver and refuses to admit it...

Just while Zhang Lian was still thinking about it, Chen Xi had already spoken: "One person has 60 silver coins, the price is fair and reasonable."

Zhang Lian was stunned and looked at Chen Xi curiously. I thought you were a lump of wood. The feelings were the money I gave you. You looked down on me. Waiting to make money from the hands of the Folang Ji people?

When the Malaccas were still translating the envoy of the Polangji, Zhang Lianla Chenxi went aside and asked, "The imperial envoy is not really planning to let them redeem people, right?"

"Why not?" Chen Xi asked with his hands spread out.

Zhang Lian cursed in his heart, but quickly explained: "The Folang Ji people invaded my border. Although the people have taken it down, according to the rules, they must be handed over to the court for disposal."

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Don't forget, I am an envoy of the mission and have the right to do so."

Zhang Lian completely doesn’t understand!

You used to show me a trick, but it turned out to be a greedy man. When you heard that the Folang Ji people wanted to give you money, you immediately agreed. It really disappoints the admiration of the people outside!

When Chen Xi turned his head, the Portuguese had already seen a smile on their faces. They did not expect that this trip would be so smooth to redeem people.

"Sir, they said, they wanted to redeem the ship together." said the Manlacaka.

Sticking to the face.

Chen Xi waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about the issue of redeeming people first. If they don't have that many silver coins, what can they use to redeem the ship?"

"They said...if there are not enough silver coins, there are still gold coins."

One sentence made Zhang Lian feel angry. He always thought something was wrong before, but now he remembered that when he counted the spoils, he could not find the gold coins.

When Folang Jiren arrived for the first time, he bribed local officials, but gave him a lot of gold coins. For the Ming people, Folang Jiren's gold coins were surprisingly good, and that was the real treasure.

Zhang Lian began to suspect Zhang Laowu and others. Could it be that they hid it privately after snatching the gold coins?

Zhang Lian thought to himself: "Let's go back and interrogate them!"

Chen Xi asked at this time: "Where are the gold coins?"

The Manragic people translated: "They said that the ship carrying gold coins was not robbed by you... we are still in their hands."

Chen Xi was relieved. When he went to grab the boat last night, he missed a treasure ship with the other party. Of course, is it really different? Perhaps it was just that the money for the Flangji people to redeem people is not enough, so I made up here.

Chen Xi sighed: "In the minds of our Ming people, human life is priceless. Since they have to measure human life with real gold and silver, let's first calculate the price of our people who died in vain in the Ming Dynasty. How many people they killed in my coastal areas, one life is 60 silver coins..."

At this point, Zhang Lian finally understood Chen Xi’s intention.

Chen Xi deliberately guided the Florians to explain the price of redemption clearly. In fact, it is to "set the accounts after autumn". Didn't your Florians kill many people in my coastal areas? First repay the debt and then discuss the issue of redemption.

Zhang Lian was secretly happy: "This kid is still thoughtful, so he can get a large amount of compensation without having to hand over his wife. Each person has 60 silver coins, and there is no need to declare to the court. I will add five points to him with two or two."

When the people from Malacca talked to the Florians, the Florians' face changed drastically.

No matter whether the transaction is reasonable or not, they themselves don’t know how many people they killed in the coastal areas. However, the Folangji people are very smart and don’t even know how many people have committed crimes. How do you know? Let’s just report a few people and pay some money. The most important thing is to redeem Almeida and others.

"They said they killed several villagers along the coast, and a total of seven people were added. According to the price of the redemption, they would give you a total of four hundred and twenty silver coins."

Zhang Lian quickly reminded next to him: "Sir, the murder of the villagers is better not to report to the court, otherwise you and I will be responsible. Just say that those who are kidnapped by them will be compensated for 60 silver coins. So you can say... "

Chen Xi shook his head slightly: "There is no airtight wall in this world. If you don't take advantage of the opportunity of great victory to report to the court and wait until you are impeached by the censor, will the prefect Zhang be sure to protect himself?"

"This..." Zhang Lian looked embarrassed.

Chen Xi said again: "Prince Zhang, please rest assured. I will definitely give good words to the Prime Minister Zhang in the memorial, so that the court can know that the people of Folangji killed my people because they were traitorous and had nothing to do with the local government. I will also describe the deeds of Prime Minister Zhang's bravery in killing the enemy."

Zhang Lian nodded and said, "I have a job as a councilman." He said this, but he was thinking, when he got the compensation, do you see if I admit it or not!

Chen Xi turned around and said to Folangjiren: "I thought I would just say a few people, so you can cheat me? The person who came, invites the Ming Dynasty people rescued from the ship to the lobby!"

Soon, the Ming people rescued from the Florian ship arrived at the main hall. When they saw the Florian, they gritted their teeth and wished they could eat the flesh and blood of these devils.

"Sir, you have to make the decision for us. The villain is just a villager who is responsible for farming. Unexpectedly, these thieves killed our village... They are not humans. There are seventy-six people in the village. Now there are only six people left. Two of them did not come down on another boat... Woo, my poor baby is only nine years old..."

After the Folang Ji people robbed everywhere, burned, killed and robbed, basically every village would choose a few young and strong people to take them on the boat to be slaves. In this era, perhaps not many people could read, but a village basically had the same surname. How many people in the village were from the village were Menqing, so they could calculate the total number and the number of people alive, and they could completely calculate the number of deaths.

Someone cried on this end, and someone else had already dug up the abacus beads to calculate.

The Manraga translator translated with a bitter face. When the Florian heard the numbers more and more, his face showed horror.

Why did you just pretend to be timid and promise to pay the people of the Ming Dynasty? Now, even if you sell all the ships, you can't afford to pay!

After all the numbers were calculated, Chen Xi held the account book in his hand, and the numbers written in the Chinese characters looked a little awkward: "Well, there are 632 people in total, that is 37,920 silver coins. You send these silver coins first, and we will discuss the issue of redemption."

The Folangjiren shouted immediately. When the Manraga translator heard it, he looked nervous. Chen Xi guessed that it was a swearing and swearing.

Zhang Lian walked to Chen Xi and whispered: "Sir, is the amount a little higher? Why don't you give them a half discount? Or ask them how many silver coins they have?"

"After now all the people are dead. Even if there is compensation, there is no way to take the victim, right?"

Chen Xi said coldly: "I cannot agree with the words of the Prime Minister Zhang. The price they redeem for is 60 silver coins, and they treat everyone equally. The people of the Ming Dynasty should naturally be worth this price. Otherwise, wouldn't it mean that the people of the Ming Dynasty cannot match the people of foreign countries?"

Zhang Lian quickly said, "Mr. I must not get me wrong. The officials have no intention of this." After saying that, Zhang Lian began to sweat coldly. If Emperor Hongzhi knew about this, it would be strange if he didn't peel him.

After breathing a little relieved, Zhang Lian suddenly realized that this was the Quanzhou Prefectural Office, and I should have the final say. How could this kid have the right to speak?

Zhang Lian was about to take the initiative, but Chen Xi waved his hand: "I know that you are just shrimp soldiers and crab generals who are the people of Folang Ji. If you can't make the decision, then invite your governor and I will discuss with him."

As Chen Xi ordered, the yamen runners escorted Almeida, the governor of the Folangjiren, to the main hall.

Almeida saw the fleet coming to redeem people, and as negotiators, the three of them did not wear shackles and shackles, and their faces were somewhat relieved. This at least shows that the Ming Dynasty understood the rules of negotiation!

But when the three of them expressed the conditions that Chen Xi had just made, Almeida's face was as beautiful as earth.

More than 30,000 silver coins are just compensation. Even if nine ships are there, they have to sell their money to make up, not to mention that there are only three ships left now.

"Mr. Governor, I wonder what you mean?" Chen Xi smiled and looked at Almeida.

After hearing the translation of the Malaccans, Almeida was speechless, but Zhang Lian muttered: "The imperial envoy is crazy, and he actually calls him the 'Mr.'"

After a while, Almeida seemed to realize the problem, and quickly said something, which was translated by the Malaccans: "The Governor said, give him some time, and as long as he returns to Malaccans, there will be enough silver compensation."

Chen Xi waved his hand: "You are gone. If you don't come back, wouldn't we lose our capital? Let's do this, stay in my Ming Dynasty and personally apologize to the emperor, so that I can feel your sincerity to the emperor. At the same time, I will send your people back to get silver coins. Remember that even a single silver coins cannot be missing."

What Chen Xi wanted was silver coins for compensation, and deliberately did not mention the disposal of Almeida and other prisoners of Flangji, because Chen Xi himself knew that he could not make the decision on the issue of prisoners of war.

His current mission is to escort Almeida and others to the capital as prisoners of war and trade envoys, so that his mission will be completed smoothly.

As for whether to let go of others or whether to trade, it was decided by the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Six Ministry officials. The emperor decided that it had nothing to do with him.

Almeida felt that it was too difficult to get freedom from this cruel boy, but he was unwilling to sit and wait for death.

He said a few words to the three envoys, roughly meaning that they would hurry to raise silver coins for compensation and redemption.

Chen Xidao: "It's okay to leave, but leave a little interest first and use it as collateral."

Everyone in Folangji looked puzzled.

"Leave your gold coins and the goods on the ship as tributes to our tributes to exchange for the forgiveness of our dynasty emperor." Chenxi Road.

Almeida said, and at this time Zhang Lian also came to remind the two of them, "I didn't get so many spoils before, why bother to cause trouble?"

Chen Xi smiled and said, "The spoils are spoils, and the tributes are tributes. The two are not the same!"
