"Your Highness Princess Yue, let's talk about the first issue of providing food and grass for your 30,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed!"
"Your Highness, do you know how much food and grass is consumed by 30,000 soldiers and horses in one day? You don't know, I know it, and the emperor of your country also knows it. This is simply impossible. I can pay for your food and grass for a month at most.
, there’s no need to think about it, and there’s no need to talk about it!”
"Secondly, 300,000 taels of silver is even more nonsense. Four years ago, I led an army of 400,000 to the Western Regions and the cost of a one-month march was only 300,000 taels of silver!"
"You are just stationed along the way, which is incomparable to the cost of dispatching a large army. I can decide to pay the moving expenses of your 30,000 soldiers and 30,000 taels of silver!"
"Third, your Jin soldiers and horses can evacuate the station during an accident, but you must first notify our troops and inform our guards three days in advance before you can evacuate without authorization!"
"Fourth, does Her Majesty the Princess know how much silver taels flow through the mutual market for tax purposes in a year?"
The little cutie blinked her eyes and subconsciously looked up at Hui'er. Hui'er also looked awkward and clasped her chin.
The little cutie lowered her head in disappointment, and looked at Young Master Liu with a strong look on the outside, but I won't tell you. This is my big gold secret. What if you find out how much silver we have in our treasury and you want to have evil intentions?
?”
Liu Mingzhi nodded cheerfully: "Okay, Princess, don't tell me if you don't want to say it. I will tell you how much it is. After the mutual market is established, the highest tax rate in the initial stage is not included. Let's just say that during normal times, Dalong's tax rate is as high as 800.
More than ten thousand taels!"
"If you give 10% of the money to the Kingdom of Jin, it will cost you 800,000 taels of silver."
"When the mutual market prospers again, tax revenue will explode to a new high. 10% of the profit will be worth at least one million taels of silver, which is enough to form an army of 100,000 strong soldiers. There is no need to discuss this!"
"Explosive? New high?"
The little cutie clasped her pink fingers and muttered for a long time without understanding what these two words meant.
But it couldn't stop the little cutie from pretending to be good at acting. The little cutie put down his palm "calmly" and nodded slightly to Mr. Liu.
"Of course I understand, princess, you can continue."
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded: "Fifth, I, Dalong, can pay your country a thousand Hengdao to supply your country's military manufacturing supervision and research, but if you want the Hengdao blueprint, we don't have to talk about it!"
"Sixth, I completely agree without any objection!"
The little cutie raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Hui'er, seeing her shaking her head slightly and leaning towards Young Master Liu.
Staring at Liu Mingzhi with cute big eyes: "Master Liu, it would be too insincere to delete so many conditions!"
"Except for the sixth item, I have no objections. The first item is to provide three months of food and grass!"
"The second piece of silver is one hundred thousand taels!"
"Article 3: This princess has no objection!"
"Article 4: Your country must make concessions, otherwise there will be no negotiation!"
"Article 5: Ten thousand horizontal knives and one hundred eight-oxen crossbows offset the blueprint!"
"Ten thousand horizontal knives and a hundred eight-oxen crossbows?"
"That's right, if Mr. Liu thinks that the horizontal sword is more valuable than the blueprint, he can exchange it for the blueprint!"
Liu Mingzhi looked helplessly at the scheming little cutie. He really didn't expect that the little cutie at such an age could have such a heart. This was pinching his own lifeline.
"Two thousand horizontal swords, but not eight oxen crossbows!"
"Then there's no need to talk. Young Master Liu went to rectify the officials in Yingzhou and Fuzhou and cured them. Master Liu can still catch up with dinner when he goes back now. Goodbye!"
The little cutie stood up while holding on to the table, pretending to leave. She took three steps and looked back, staring at Mr. Liu with clear eyes before saying, "Stay with me, keep me, keep me now!"
Liu Mingzhi chuckled and shook his head, raising his hand to wave to the little cutie.
"Your Highness, walk slowly!"
"Hey, that's right! Did you agree to leave slowly?"
The little cutie, who had just turned around and was a little excited, suddenly looked at the smiling Young Master Liu in astonishment. It was obvious that he did not expect that his father would say these words.
The little cutie gasped and looked at Young Master Liu: "Dad, have you suddenly gone crazy? Aren't you worried about the Yingzhou Mutual Market?"
"I am indeed very anxious, but I will not agree to such a rude request from your country!"
"Where is this rudeness? Where is this rudeness? This princess thinks it is very reasonable. Mr. Liu, you have to understand that it is you who are asking for help from the Kingdom of Jin, not the Kingdom of Jin that is asking for your help."
"I understand, but I can choose not to ask. Negotiations do not necessarily have to be successful. When doing business, I know how not to buy or sell by force, let alone negotiations between countries."
The little cutie wrinkled her nose, pinched her waist and walked towards Young Master Liu.
His big eyes stared at Young Master Liu, his small mouth tightened, he grabbed Young Master Liu's arm and shook it.
"Dad, just agree. Otherwise, if you are busy with Yingzhou affairs, how can you spare time to play with Yue'er? Do you no longer love Yue'er? Don't you love Yue'er anymore?"
Liu Mingzhi raised his eyebrows, with a hint of smile in his eyes: "Are you my daughter now?"
"Yeah, yeah, daddy said yes, don't you love Yue'er the most? Just think of these as your gifts to Yue'er, okay?"
"My daughter is good. I can't beat my daughter, but I can beat my daughter. Little bastard, if you rebel against you, if you dare to put on airs with me, I won't be able to beat you off!"
Young Master Liu pulled the little cutie into his arms and pushed him onto his lap. He raised his hand and patted the cutie on the butt.
The sound of snapping was endless, and the little cutie's scream came from Liu Dashao's arms: "Daddy, Yue'er is wrong, Yue'er is wrong!"
"Master Liu, you are so brave, you actually dare to attack Her Highness the Princess. You are insulting the face of our Kingdom of Jin. Please let Her Highness go quickly. Otherwise, don't blame Hui'er for not remembering the old relationship!"
Hui'er was stunned for a short time, then her face turned frightened and she walked towards Young Master Liu, uttering scolding words.
"Um?"
Liu Mingzhi raised his eyes slightly, and charged towards Hui'er with a murderous aura, all pressing down on Hui'er.
Hui'er's face changed with shock as she was about to step forward, with a trace of sweat hanging on her forehead. She kept swallowing her saliva and looked at Liu Mingzhi who was looking at her quietly. Knowing that Liu Mingzhi was not her opponent, Hui'er still
Not a trace of resistance can arise.
From Liu Mingzhi's eyes, she seemed to see thousands of troops galloping towards her face, galloping on the battlefield with their swords raised.
It was the smell of blood. Liu Mingzhi was clearly kneeling on the blanket and motionless, but Hui'er felt that a hundred thousand cavalry were charging toward her.
She had felt this feeling from the King of Zhen Wanyan Chiezha, and she could not think of resisting either.
Liu Mingzhi slowly lowered his gaze: "Miss Hui'er, what you heard personally is that it is not the identity of the Dragon Messenger and the Princess of Jin now, but the identity of father and daughter!"
"I am a eldest child and it is natural for me to be a eldest child!"
"Master Liu, I am not your daughter now, I am the princess of the Kingdom of Jin, please let me go!"
"It's too late, the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, your father can slap you whenever he wants, but he doesn't dare to beat you, a little princess of the Kingdom of Jin!"
