Chapter 147 Shameless (2)
"Since you have the intention of returning to the wrong path, I and Mr. Lian also have the beauty of becoming an adult." Li Jinglong smiled cheerfully, "Then let me talk to you carefully, how can I make a decision!"
"I'm sober!" Myanmar envoy Miao Lun also had a bit of solemnity on his face.
"First!" Li Jinglong raised his finger, "Apology should be submitted to the national letter!"
“This is natural…”
Before Miao Lun could finish speaking, Li Jinglong interrupted him, "I haven't finished speaking yet, don't interrupt!"
"The subordinate is rude!"
"The Lord of Myanmar Awa submitted a letter of nationality to my Ming Dynasty. From now on, he will be subject to his words!" Li Jinglong said, "Your king serves as a minister and a minister. The Myanmar country has been a vassal of the Ming Dynasty for generations, and regards my Ming Dynasty as a vassal state, and pays my Ming Dynasty as a vassal state every year. All new kings and crown princes in Myanmar must be enthroned by our Ming Dynasty, can it be?"
Lian Zining stroked his beard and said, "Well, it's very appropriate!"
In the eyes of scholars like him, it is natural for Gentiles to regard the Ming Dynasty as the sect leader and serve the Emperor of Ming as their ministers. And to put it nicely, it is natural for you to pay tribute to you.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it and felt annoyed, "What am I going to get involved with?"
Miao Lun pondered for a moment, "Yes!"
His concept of the Celestial Kingdom and the vassal state was limited to the Han history books, and he thought that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty wanted to save face. However, he dug a big hole for him. Once the king accepted the title of the Ming Dynasty, it means that the legitimacy of your rule was in the hands of the Ming Dynasty.
"Of course, I won't let you surrender in vain!" Li Jinglong was familiar with the way with a slap in his hand. "This guild requested the emperor to give the lord of your country the four-clawed golden dragon robe and the seal of the lord of the Burmese king!"
"It's so good!" Miao Lun smiled, "I am so grateful to the country!"
Li Jinglong looked at Lian Zining, "What do you think?"
The latter subconsciously said, "Give the dragon robe a proper thing. The four-claw robe is just in line with the clothing of the Prince of the Ming Dynasty..." As he said that, he quickly shut up again, and at the same time, his hands shook and almost stroked off several of his beards.
"Second, draw the boundary!" Li Jinglong spoke again.
The main topic is here, Miao Lun quickly listened solemnly.
"When my Ming Dynasty was in contact with you, Myanmar, your country showed sincerity to show that it did not dare to be enemies with our Celestial Empire. It retreated for 150 miles, and no soldiers were allowed to build a city within 150 miles." Li Jinglong tapped the table with his finger and said slowly, "This blank land is under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty."
"Then... I'm going to ask!" Miao Lun was shocked, "Where does this retreat start? For example, the general who is in charge of the country on the Yunmian border today occupies a lot of our land, and the place where he is now stationed is..."
"You are going to be wronged!" Li Jinglong smiled, "I just told you that the general of the country was a prince, and after making a mistake, he was given a title and was exiled to Yunnan. He is the second son of the King of Yan of the Ming Dynasty. He is the most arrogant and domineering person. Don't think about spitting out what he eats." As he said, he smiled, "I advise you not to care about these subtle details, which annoy him, hehe!"
"So fucking shameless!"
Miao Lun cursed in his heart, if you don’t spit out the occupied area, you will have to divide a 150-mile area from our inherent territory as a buffer? And this place is controlled by you, the Ming Dynasty, so how can you bully people like this?
"What are you worried about? My Ming Dynasty is rich and can you see those wild places you have?" Li Jinglong said unhappily, "The Ming Dynasty is not that 150 miles away, but your country is not bad? I see that you are good, so I will say something to you with my heart. The so-called loss is to take advantage of you. The lower your attitude now, the better it will be for you. Besides, those who are the homeless places where the chieftains barbarians live, and do not hurt your foundation."
Miao Lun had been in love for a long time, but the situation was worse than that of a person, so he could only pinch his nose and agree, "Okay!"
Li Jinglong smiled in his heart and said to himself, "I can't kill you!"
The 150 Burmese people thought it was a 150-mile place, but when they were drawn the next day, it was a 150-mile division line. It was equivalent to building a fort for the Ming Dynasty directly in the inland of Myanmar. They sent troops to arrive day and night, and they could advance or retreat.
"Third, it's compensation!" Li Jinglong cleared his throat and continued, "Because you, Burmese people colluded with Yunnan chieftains, I will not talk about the deaths of Yunnan this time. The military expenditure alone is as high as more than 2 million." As he said, he smiled, "But my Ming Dynasty is rich and I will not care about such trivial matters, so I will count it as two million... I pity your country's national strength, and the people's life is not easy, so the soldiers' pensions are not included!"
Speaking of this, let’s take a look at Lian Zining, “What do you think?”
"Well, what you said is very true!" Lian Zining nodded and smiled bitterly, saying in his heart, "I didn't spend so much at all. The money was ready, and it didn't seem to end as quickly as expected."
"Duke Cao is compassionate to the world and admires it!"
Miao Lun is most concerned about this point. They are really poor in Burma, and he is really afraid that the lions of the Ming Dynasty will speak loudly.
"So, you can pay for the money!" Li Jinglong said again, "Well, do you have gold, silver, and copper ore?"
"Didn't you mean to use teak?" Miao Lun was shocked, "I am poor and only produces wood!"
Li Jinglong felt a little embarrassed, "Well...oh, forget it, I'm a good person to do it to the end. A teak is calculated based on five silver dollars. But I said that it is the first one. The teak you transported must meet the standards of my Ming Dynasty. Each of us must check it, and only those that pass it can count!"
As he said that, he looked at Lian Zining, "As for the standard? Is it better to be thicker and straighter as possible?"
"You have to have some face!" Lian Zining felt ashamed. He was in charge of the Ministry of Works and bought teak from Nanyang Maritime Merchant. Each piece was worth hundreds of silver. When Li Jinglong opened his mouth, he had five silver dollars, and it seemed like a great grace.
"I'm going to ask for a question!" Miao Lun looked suspicious, "The Ming Dynasty wants so much wood..."
"Do you have something else? Copper, silver, gold, iron ore?" Li Jinglong glared.
Miao Lun quickly lowered his head and frowned, "Cutting is a trivial matter. The key is how to transport it. You also know that the population of the country is sparse."
"Ah!" Li Jinglong thought, "That's right, transporting wood requires conquering civilians to mobilize livestock. The cost of traveling thousands of miles must be astronomical!" As he said that, he slapped his forehead, "I am a good man to do it to the end. We will do the things about transporting teak in the Ming Dynasty. Well, but it can't make me suffer the loss in the Ming Dynasty, right? So, the price of teak was reduced to four silver dollars per piece!"
"Bah! You are not Duke Cao, you are Duke Pipi!" Lian Zining was completely speechless. No one he scolded in his life did not scold much today.
"Dare you ask how the Ming Dynasty will be prosperous?" Miao Lun asked nervously.
He was really afraid, and he was really afraid that the Ming Dynasty sent tens of thousands of people to transport wood.
"Myanmar also has ports, take waterways!" Li Jinglong said lightly, "The timber will be loaded in the port at that time!"
"So good!" Miao Lun nodded.
"Hehe, the Ming Dynasty ship has passed, do you have a good life?" Li Jinglong smiled in his heart.
Then he stood up and laughed, "Since you have agreed to all these, my Ming Dynasty will be gentle and the past will be written off! I will raise this matter at the court meeting tomorrow. Go back and wait for the good news."
Miao Lun looked at him, "Don't you want to put it in words?" He said, and quickly said, "The contract between the two parties has just agreed to, why do you need to make a public opinion in the court?"
"What are you anxious about?" Li Jinglong said, "All the noble military marquis in the court are shouting to use you as a military ladder for Myanmar. I cannot comfort you, and I cannot make things difficult for Chen Ming to have a good relationship? Do you think it's enough to just talk?"
As he said that, he leaned closer and whispered, "I want to be quick, and I know Chi Ze changed. Our general in charge of the country is not a good man, maybe he is holding back something bad. By the way, I heard that you are busy with farming in spring, and I guess he will not go to the next step."
"Then?" Miao Lun was shocked.
"Let's go to the seedlings in the fields. Think about how hot you are, it won't take long to grow taller. Then he will ride a horse and set fire along your fields.....Tsk, what do you eat at that time?" Li Jinglong said worriedly.
These words undoubtedly hit Miao Lun's weakness.
"How long will it take?"
Li Jinglong said, "Oh, family scandals should not be made public, but you are not an outsider. The old military marquis of the Ming Dynasty will kill talents, and they will be shameful for all their lives except killing people and setting fires. You are fat, so you can understand them...? It's hard! Do they have to see the benefits?"
I understand! Miao Lun understand!
"Shameless!" he cursed in his heart, "This is naked blackmail!"
But he had no choice but to do it, and now he could only treat it as a living horse.
He walked directly to the window and said a few gurgling sounds in his mouth.
Not long after, a sound came from outside the door, but several Burmese people came in carrying a box.
"I am poor in the country, and I have all the gold sands and a hundred golds to offer. I don't respect you and ask Duke Cao to accept it!" Miao Lun opened the box and was full of golden colors.
Li Jinglong glanced at him and smiled, "Your Excellency made a mistake, not for me, but for relationships!"
