Chapter 1,316 The water is too deep, I can’t control it!…
"Witness the Lord God! My brother Kazuto, let's not worry about the silkworm seeds for now. You can help me pay attention first... and what our tribe needs more right now is more craftsmen, all kinds of craftsmen! And more
Plenty of livestock, especially four-legged horses that can be ridden, and oxen that can plow the fields!…”
The sun was setting, and the day was about to end. Faced with Mitsuhiro Uyizaki's tempting proposal, Zuvarro shook his head with difficulty after thinking for a long time, and then gave up the "huge amount" of "one hundred gold charms"
The transaction was temporarily suppressed.
As for the reason for his refusal, it is not that there is not so much gold in the kingdom's fleet. In fact, there are still 400 kilograms of gold in the bottom of the flagship Snow Wolf. And in the Shenanshan Port on the Kamchatka Peninsula
Inside, the remaining 1,500 kilograms were stored in the cellar. And the consumption along the way... When he went south, he scattered gold talismans everywhere, plus the current trade, he only spent 100 yuan, which is only a mere 100 yuan.
Just a hundred pounds of gold!
You know, the chief priest of Chimel, who is currently sitting on the Great Whale Island and in charge of the logistics of the northern colonization, has plundered half of the Lake Kingdom, the entire Totonac Alliance, a small number of Mayan city-states, plus collected the gold mountains on the west coast.
After gaining control over the rare high-purity raw ore, nearly ten tons of gold!
For the countries in the Old World, this is almost an unbelievable and crazy dream number that can trigger the Crusaders' holy war, completely save Castile's financial crisis, and support Spain's gold funnel-like squandering for decades!
And these ten tons of gold, even for Central America, which is rich in gold, are the accumulation of hundreds of years of long-term mining.
However, for Shulot, he does not value these golden and heavy dead things. As long as there are people with enough productivity, whether it is the gold mountains that have been found on the coast of North America, the gold mines that have been mined by the Alliance, or the South in his memory
Inca's golden country could easily make up for this number and produce more gold!
Therefore, instead of letting the Central American gold be deposited in various parts of Central America in the form of gold statues, gold funerary objects, gold carvings, gold utensils, and gold jewelry, it is better to melt it into the main god's golden talisman and transport it to the west coast of North America first.
Stocked at the port. Then, waiting for the upgrade of transactions with various ministries in the West Sea, a steady stream of exchanges for truly valuable talents, livestock and materials!…
Generally speaking, Zuvalo does not lack gold, and the Kingdom does not lack gold. If the Kingdom's gold is really shipped in ships, plus the Fresnillo silver mine in the Sacascarat Wasteland, it will be enough.
It easily exploded the gold and silver market of the Republic of China, and even caused the price of gold and silver to plummet in the Ming Dynasty!
Of course, for the Ming Dynasty's taxation system, which currently focuses on physical taxation, the fall in gold and silver prices will have a huge impact on the gentry, but it will not shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. But after the reform of the One Whip Law, farmers
If it needs to be converted into silver to pay taxes, the power of the massive inflow of gold and silver will truly determine the future of the empire!
The commercial prosperity with the inflow of gold and silver, the inflation of physical prices, the rapid growth of land annexation, the endless greed of the lords and gentry, the desperate and bankrupt peasants at the bottom, the unprecedented difference in wealth between the north and the south, and the constantly fluctuating silver currency will eventually bury the foundation of the empire.
The powder keg of destruction is just waiting for the arrival of the Little Ice Age and no harvest, just like what happened in history...
"O Lord God! Looking at the reactions of these people, the value of this gold in the Xihai tribe is indeed as expected in His Majesty's prophecy, beyond our imagination!..."
"But the power of these Kazuto tribes is beyond my imagination. Just the most remote Kazuto clan can mobilize more than two hundred warriors and thousands of militiamen, not to mention tens of thousands of people further south.
A big tribe of 100,000 people, what is the 'Andong big tribe', the 'Southern big tribe'..."
"Although I have so much gold on hand, I must use it carefully. The amount used each time must not exceed the limit of the other party's greed! ... As for what Chief Kazuto said, what is the 'big man' in Kyoto, what a hundred gold
The 'Silkworm Silkmaker' of the talisman... The water in this is too deep! If a hundred gold talismans are thrown out, the stormy waves caused may engulf our fleet..."
"O Lord God! Before you have the power in your hands to withstand more powerful risks, you should not attract the attention of the Heguo clan too early! Bobcats hunt rabbits, and jaguars hunt foxes. They cannot be out of control, otherwise they will be grasped.
Can’t live…”
Zuvalo lowered his eyes and allowed the numerous thoughts and considerations to flood his mind. He needed to stay calm and let his heart, which was inflated by the "golden power", return to caution again.
"Ah! My brother Shantao, I can understand... One hundred pounds of gold is indeed not a small number! It is indeed too reluctant to ask you to use it to exchange for silkworm seeds that can only be raised in the warm south..."
Hearing Chief Shantaru's clear rejection, Mitsuhiro Uyizaki was a little disappointed. After all, if this big business of one hundred gold talismans could really be completed, the Uyizaki clan would get at least one-third of the profit! At least!
It’s thirty-five gold talismans…
"Buddha! Chief Shantao looks rough and arrogant, but is actually rational and prudent. He is also proficient in poetry and Buddhism. How does this behavior make him look like a barbarian chief who has no clan inheritance and comes from the snowy fields of the north?... Well, although he still doesn't know the other tribe.
position. But judging from the other party's calm performance, they still have at least a hundred gold talismans in their hands!"
Thinking of the shining gold, Mitsuhiro Uizaki felt hot in his heart. He blinked and asked with a smile.
"My Shantao brothers! Let's not talk about raising silkworms. Are you a linen and weaving craftsman? All you need is two gold talismans!"
"Witness the Lord God! I can only give you a piece of gold talisman, and not now. But next time I bring the craftsman and the seeds with me to trade!..."
"Ah... okay! Who made you my brother!... Well, how many gold talismans are you willing to pay for the senior shipwright you asked for before?..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Senior shipwright...well, can you build a sea-going ship?..."
"Ah! A sea-going ship?..."
Mitsuhiro Uyizaki paused. This was a question he didn't expect. He pondered for a while and then said with a smile.
"The big man I know in Kyoto once obtained a sea-going ship and a shipwright, and even brought it to my family, but something happened later... My brother Shantao! If you really want to build a sea-going ship, it's the same as the shipwright.
For rare ones, there must be at least five gold charms, and a deposit must be paid in advance! After all, I want to show my sincerity to the big shots in Kyoto in advance..."
"Huh?...So in Kazuto's eyes, a master craftsman like Kanebuneji is only worth five kilograms of gold?...For a craftsman like this who has mastered key technologies, even if the kingdom spends a hundred kilograms of gold, it won't even blink an eyelid.
of!"
Hearing this, Zuvalo shook his head in his heart. Of course he knew that the long ship he captured and the warrior craftsmen on the long ship came from some insect mountain and human tribe in front of him. In the port of the Far North Peninsula, there are
Where are the two Kazuto samurai captives? However, this time he went south, but he didn’t take any Kazuto captives with him, just to avoid contact between the two sides, thus leaking the secrets of the kingdom.
Therefore, he first pretended to be the Ainu clan, and then after being misunderstood by Kazuto, he simply made a mistake and pretended to be a large tribe of Shantar. After all, he, Zuwaro, would never be tripped twice in a row in the same pit.
, and more tribal leather clothes can make him and the fleet safer! Since arriving in the Far North Peninsula for the first time, under the stereotype of the Northern Tribes being simple and friendly, he was directly tricked by the old grandmother of Yamabe, and almost had a big accident.
Later... he gained experience and no longer easily told the details of the kingdom!
For this reason, Zuvalo even locked several of His Majesty's letters of credence at the bottom of the box. These Xihai tribes are all cunning, and some are extremely greedy. Taking out these letters of credence, there is no telling what will happen.
The terrifying big tribe was then swallowed whole by the opponent!
Therefore, it is better to keep a low profile. When the strength is not enough, you should still keep a low profile and accept the craftsmen in a muffled voice!
"Haha! My brother Kazuto, if you can get a shipwright to build a sea-going ship and five gold charms, the tribe can still pay for it! As for the big ship at sea, we can also afford the price, but it depends on whether it is
It's really a sea ship...Here, this golden talisman is the deposit I will give you!..."
Zuvaro dug around in his arms, but found nothing. So, he looked at the warrior chief Tammy, who nodded, and took out a gold charm from his arms. This time, Mitsuhiro Uyizaki
His eyes straightened again. When he looked at each warrior of the Shantao tribe, he felt as if the other person was holding a golden talisman, and he wanted to reach out and take it out! Although, the faces of these Shantao warriors were indeed a bit fierce, as if they had seen each other.
Hatamoto is used to killing...
"Ahem! My brother Shantao! Thank you for your generosity and trust! Although our family only brought thirteen craftsmen for this trade, we will definitely bring more next time! Definitely!..."
Mitsuhiro Oyezaki bowed and bowed respectfully to the bold Chief Shantao. Of course, these etiquettes were not directed at Zuwaro, but at the great Golden Kamui... Then, with a smile on his face, he carefully
asked.
"Dear Brother Shantao... In addition to these craftsmen, we also brought twelve mares, a pair of breeding cattle, and forty pairs of chickens, ducks and geese... This is already the limit of what we can collect in a short period of time.
!…”
"For the sake of these livestock and poultry...can I release the Kudo family elder and a few horse-riding samurai back to my family?..."
