"Twenty million taels." Shaoyan Mingguang took a deep breath, "This is the limit of what we can do, and it is impossible to pay it all at once. Please give us some time, Xiao Chenjun. In addition, Please also allow us to use other things to compensate."
"Mr. Shaoyan, you and I both know that this is not the limit. In fact, our losses are far more than this, and I can ask for more, but as I said, Mr. Shaoyan, you are my respected friend, Your words are priceless." Xiao Chen sighed and shook his head, feeling that he had become soft-hearted too easily.
"That's true." Shaoyan Mingguang said after being silent for a while, "But this is the limit of what I can achieve here. If Xiao Chenjun doesn't agree, then I have to find another person to talk to you."
"Except for Mr. Shaoyan, I won't talk to anyone else in Japan!" Xiao Chen said, "I don't trust them, and they don't deserve my trust. In fact, I didn't plan to talk to you, including the old man. Many of us in Yanyun are more inclined to negotiate with Ross!" Xiao Chen said.
"The Japanese and Chinese are from the same clan, and the Russian foreigners must have different intentions!" Shaoyan Mingguang said.
"Even so, if we are in the same room and fighting each other, why bother?" Xiao Chen said.
"Haha." Shaoyan Mingguang smiled slightly, meaningfully.
"I know what you mean, Mr. Shaoyan. Yes, we Chinese people are always at war with each other, fighting for fame and wealth, and fighting each other to death. Mr. Shaoyan, you don't like war, right? Mr. Ruoyi, see , how can we eliminate war forever?" Xiao Chen said.
"Oh, Xiao Chenjun's question is really..." Shaoyan Mingguang thought about it for a long time, and finally shook his head, "I don't know how to answer it."
"Mr. Shaoyan is here this time. It's better to stay a little longer and walk around Yanyun County." Xiao Chen said.
"Okay, this time I'd like to pay a visit to Mr. Chen Jisheng, Marshal Zhuge and Marshal Li Ling." Shaoyan Mingguang happily agreed.
After sending Shao Yan away, the fat man began to complain about Xiao Chen, "You guys are always too soft-hearted. Why are you so polite to these little devils? Ask them for 100 million silver once and see if they dare not give it? If you don't give it, just follow Angelina. Join forces and destroy them."
"Yeah? Fatty, since when did you speak from the perspective of a Russian?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Because of my dear Valova and Tasia." Fatty said, "You know, they are my confidante." Qianye Ling was not here, so Fatty would be a bit presumptuous.
"You are a giant who talks and a dwarf who acts. If you have the guts, have a baby with Tasia and Valova. From now on, we will be friends with Ross for generations and be a family forever," Xiao Chen said.
"Pull him down. This is your mission. It has nothing to do with me. It's best for you and Angelina to have a child. Let's win over Rose through blood ties." The fat man said.
"But I still feel a little strange when I talk about this." Xiao Chen said, "Back then, Xiao Lin Senyi said that he wanted to marry the princess of Emperor Shenzhao to me, but this time Shaoyan Mingguang didn't mention it at all. Woolen cloth?"
"You shameless guy!" The fat man expressed his contempt, "No wonder you only asked for 20 million from them. This is because you were thinking about the princess and left some room."
"Jealousy, Chi Guoguo's jealousy!" Xiao Chen said with a smile, "What the hell, you are only allowed to have a princess friend in Russia, but you are not allowed to have a princess friend in Japan?"
"You have so many good friends! I only have one Qianye and two beauties. How many do you have in total? Can you still calculate it clearly? By the way, I didn't give you the full amount this time. Propose marriage?" The fat man retorted.
"Sigh... Speaking of this, I am also worried. The two old princes of Burma and Siam have died, and I am afraid that the situation will change again. It is said that Narado of Siam is also an ambitious man. He wants to learn from Wan Yan. , also want to form a southern Xinjiang alliance? Liu Ruyun is also careless, and most likely the two of them will hit it off." Xiao Chen said.
"We hit it off right away?" Fatty suddenly became alert, "What do you mean?"
How do I know what Liu Ruyun means? "Xiao Chen said.
"Damn it, she won't marry that Naluoduo, will she? Then what should you do." The fat man was worried for Xiao Chen.
"It's going to rain and she wants to get married. What the hell can I do?" Xiao Chen said depressedly, "It's beyond our reach."
"Out of reach?" The fat man smiled maliciously, "I can help with this. How long do you want?"
"Shut up!" Xiao Chen said.
"When the things here are settled, you can take a free trip to Myanmar. This time you two can do things openly. It's best to have another baby... Do you need my help?" said the fat man.
"Can you not be disgusting?" Xiao Chen said angrily.
"I'm talking about helping you prepare medicine, what do you think?" The fat man covered his mouth in shock, "I won't do anything to regret Chiba!"
"No need!" Xiao Chen said loudly.
While Shaoyan Mingguang was staying in Yanyun County, Japanese missions also began to arrive one after another. Daoshan Pingjun, who had not been seen for a long time, also came back and continued to serve as the envoy to Yanyun County. He and Xiao Chen have always maintained a good relationship, so I didn’t feel awkward when meeting after the war, but felt happy to meet again after a long absence.
Of course, I am also deeply worried. This time we fight with you, our Japanese losses are too serious. Xiao Chenjun, you, Sir, are still very helpful, regardless of past grudges.
Putting aside everything else, please take back the Heishantou Coal Mine as soon as possible. We are very nervous about coal now...
Xiao Chen said that you guys are very nervous about steel. Just after the war, you started busy building weapons. Is this to prepare for the next battle?
Inayama Ping kept saying babbling, babbling, that's not the case, winter is coming, and we need a lot of coal for heating work...
As he spoke, he smiled shyly.
The large amount of coal they import is mainly used for smelting, and ordinary people cannot afford to burn it at home. Japan's smelting technology has always been at the world's leading level.
On the basis of traditional Chinese smelting technology, they introduced advanced Western technology, and perfectly combined the two to form their own unique technology, which is actually remarkable.
Their mining technology is also very advanced. Without their technical support, the output of Heishantou Coal Mine would only be one-fifth of its current level.
If they did one or two good things during their occupation of Kojuli, it was to develop a lot of mineral deposits. Unfortunately, their occupation was too short, so many of the minerals were just developed and were driven out before being exploited in large quantities. gone.
When they left, they destroyed all the infrastructure, but many Gaojuli people learned a lot of mining techniques from them. After destroying their front legs, they immediately recovered on their back legs.
There are many Japanese mechanics who were also retained by Xiao Chen Wanyan, who was given two choices, either to stay and work for us with a favorable salary, or to kill them all!
So what else is there to choose from? Just leave it.
