"King Chuang, why don't you agree? The sincerity of my Zheng family is enough. This is a full million silver, and there is also a fixed monthly supply of 10,000 shi of food. These are the things your army is most in need of. In the entire southeastern coast, except for our Zheng family, few people can steadily produce so much food!"
Zheng Hu didn't understand why Li Zicheng would not agree. No matter which rebel was placed on such conditions, they would be able to agree to it. Why did Li Zicheng not agree?
"Why don't you agree?"
Li Zicheng smiled, then stood up, waved his hand, and said loudly: "Here comes someone!"
Eat across, eat across, eat across!
Two soldiers in full armor came in, raised their hands and saluted: "King Chuang!"
Li Zicheng nodded slightly, and then said: "Take our guests to see the family background of our Revolutionary Army!
Just one million taels of silver and 10,000 shi of grain and you want me to give you face, you are looking down on our revolutionary army! "
"promise!"
The two soldiers responded in unison, and then came to Zheng Hu and made a gesture of invitation.
When Zheng Hu was thinking about it, he thought about it and nodded and followed.
After being taken out of the hall, two soldiers led Zheng Hu inside the military fort for more than a quarter of an hour and finally came to a closed warehouse door.
One of them said: "This is the food depot of our Revolutionary Army."
After saying that, he showed his token, and the guard guarding the grain depot immediately took out the key and slowly opened the door of the grain depot!
What you see is a golden ocean!
Mountains of food instantly filled Zheng Hu’s eyes!
The Zheng family has an annual income of nearly 10 million, but they have never seen so much food!
The soldier who took out the token walked in first, and Zheng Hu quickly followed.
While walking in front, the soldier said: "This is the storage area for wheat. This grain farm was built after we came here. The entire granary is 330 steps long and 105 steps wide from north to south. There are a total of 210 warehouses, each of which can store five thousand shi of grain. The entire granary has a total of more than one million shi of grain.
The south side is full of rice, while the north side is full of wheat.
Since the establishment of this granary, there has been no shortage of food in it. As much as we eat, we will replenish it here! "
After taking Zheng Hu through the entire granary, the soldier's introduction was coming to an end.
The group of people walked out of the granary and walked towards another warehouse. After another cup of tea, they came to a warehouse again. The defense here was far more tight than the one just now.
There were more than 500 guards scattered around the entire warehouse.
Also enter by showing your cards.
As soon as he entered, Zheng Hu's eyes widened again before he could calm down after coming out of the granary!
If he entered a golden ocean last time, there is no doubt that he entered a silver ocean this time.
Wooden boxes are neatly placed on the ground, with neat silver ingots inside.
Next to the box were all kinds of weird silver winter melons, silver ornaments, etc. At a glance, just what Zheng Hu saw contained no less than a million taels of silver!
Just listen to another soldier say:
"This is the treasure house of our Revolutionary Army. All the captured gold and silver treasures will be stored here. From the beginning it was empty to now, the entire treasure house already contains more than three million taels of silver, and more than fifty Ten thousand taels of gold!
In addition, there are countless house titles and rare treasures, the value of which is immeasurable!
In addition, the teams sent out by our Revolutionary Army can bring back a large amount of money from those landlords and gentry every day!
I have to say that these powerful and wealthy businessmen are really rich!
It took a lot of effort to move these gold and silver winter melons back.
Look here, this is the gold and silver we got when we first ransacked the homes of these gentry with problems when Xiamen was first established. There are more than one million taels.
And with the money contributed by these worms, our Revolutionary Army has never been short of money. "
As the soldier finished speaking, Zheng Hu also understood why he was rejected.
It's like when someone is having a big meal and you order two stir-fried dishes from a roadside restaurant for someone else, you feel like you've already treated him well, but he feels like you're humiliating him.
"How about it? Do you think you will really appreciate the things that your Zheng family gave you?"
Just when Zheng Hu was stunned by the shocking scene in front of him, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Zheng Hu turned around, and sure enough, the person speaking was none other than Li Zicheng.
Seeing him coming, Zheng Hu's expression suddenly became embarrassed.
Zheng Hu felt ashamed when he thought that when he proposed those benefits just now, he looked like he was bound to get them and the other party would definitely agree.
I'm afraid the other party must be laughing at me for being such a country bumpkin!
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Zheng Hu said helplessly: "Zheng is ignorant, it's just..."
Zheng Hu hesitated, not sure whether he should ask, but after thinking about it, he decided to ask.
"Not to mention the money, King Chuang can indeed get that money from them.
But this food?
Now the whole south is in chaos, and no one is selling food at all. Not only does Chuang Wang have more than one million grain reserves, but the soldier said that whenever part of the food is eaten, it can be quickly replenished. Why? "
As far as Zheng Hu knows, not everyone can get so much food, let alone now!
"Why does Brother Zheng think this is?"
Li Zicheng asked him back.
Zheng Hu was stunned for a moment, and then he started thinking with a solemn expression. After a while, he shook his head and said: "I'm sorry for Zheng's limited knowledge. I really can't think of anyone who can come up with such a skill!"
Li Zicheng smiled and suddenly pointed at the patrolling soldiers who were moving in an orderly manner not far away and said: "Look, how are my soldiers of the Revolutionary Army doing?"
Zheng Hu didn't understand why he suddenly asked this, but he still looked at it and said:
"Your army is really well-trained, I'm afraid it's no worse than the emperor's forbidden army!
There is also the equipment of your army. I really don’t know how your army manages to make everyone wear armor. "
Zheng Hu said this subconsciously, comparing the Revolutionary Army and the Forbidden Army, and then he was stunned!
No matter the equipment, training level or even the food storage situation of this revolutionary army, they don't look like they were born in Yeluzi at all. How could ordinary rebels establish a base in Xiamen like them?
When you eliminate all the impossibilities, what remains in the end must be the truth!
A terrifying idea took shape in his mind!
But...it doesn't make sense!
Why did that person do this?
Isn’t what he wants the South to be stable as soon as possible?
Why are you still adding fuel to the fire inside?
This is not right! Something is wrong!
Li Zicheng glanced back and then said with a smile: "Go back and tell your elder brother not to interfere with my master's affairs, otherwise... the Zheng family will no longer have a foothold in your Zheng family, whether on land or at sea! "
