The two of them knelt on the ground, Zhu Jun tapped his fingers on the table, and he had already planned to attack the Japanese island country.
It's just that if we send troops hastily, I'm afraid it will attract criticism.
So this time when people from the Northern Dynasty came, he would receive them.
Naturally, people from the Southern Dynasties did not come. During this period, the Japanese island country was in turmoil. In addition, the Central Plains was not unified, so the deterrent power of the surrounding countries was far from reaching its peak.
But people in the Northern Dynasty didn't know that Zhu Jun made a random joke, and the two people became anxious.
"It's not impossible to help you, but the benefits are indispensable." Zhu Jun said: "I have tens of thousands of people under my command, all of them are elite soldiers. Not to mention sweeping the Southern Dynasties, even if I sweep the entire Japanese island country, it is not an issue!"
The more Zhu Jun spoke loudly, the lower their posture became.
After all, this Lord is an existence that can sweep across Meng Yuan.
Although the Meng Yuan people declined, they were not comparable to them.
These days, Zhu Jun's name has also spread to the Japanese island country, but the people of the Southern Dynasties did not expect that Zhu Jun actually came here to establish a vassal state.
Now they have the best opportunity to hate this grandpa.
"As long as His Highness is willing to assist us, everything will be easy to discuss!"
Zhu Jun was not polite and asked for a million taels of silver.
Both of their faces turned green.
Although the Japanese island country is rich in gold and silver, it can't bear to ask for a million taels of silver.
Moreover, the Japanese island country has a small land, a large population, and little food. If it were not surrounded by the sea, it would not be able to feed so many people.
Most of their gold and silver were used for trade, but they themselves could not make silk.
Because they believed that converting rice to mulberry would reduce food supply, so they could only import from the Central Plains.
Even though the Japanese island country had severed diplomatic relations with the Central Plains for many years due to the relationship between the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, private sea trade smuggling continued.
Not only the ronin, the daimyo, but also the Northern Dynasty also controlled a smuggling line to purchase grain.
"Your Highness, this is too much. For a normal expedition, more than 200,000 taels are enough." Kusunoki Chengcai said.
"More than two hundred thousand taels, you can tell me that." Zhu Jun said: "I have tens of thousands of people under my command, do you know how much their monthly salary is?
Even for ordinary soldiers, they only get three taels of silver a month. The higher the rank, the more money they get.
One month, the salary expenses alone cost hundreds of thousands taels. "
"Isn't the military household system a great cause?"
"The military household system is good, but the people under my command are treated like this." Zhu Jun said: "In addition, there are three meals a day with meat for every meal. The food expenditure alone in a month exceeds 20,000 taels of silver. .
Sending troops is mercenary. Isn’t it reasonable to raise the price for hiring me?
Moreover, the ships, food, grass, and weapons all come from me.
What benefits can I get from defeating the Southern Dynasty? When the time comes, I will just pat my butt and leave, and the rest will be yours.
Is one million taels a lot? "
Zhu Jun said: "Since you think it is too much, then it will be 1.2 million taels of silver, and then it will be 1.5 million taels of silver.
You can refuse, but I can guarantee that Dayi will not accept your congratulations. When the time comes for the Southern Dynasty to occupy Dayi, there is no way that I will send troops to attack the Northern Dynasty. "
"But Your Highness, the Southern Dynasties are attacking you!"
"Everything in the world is for profit, and everything in the world is for profit. There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. Besides, there is basically no damage to our side this time!" Zhu Jun pretended to be a shrewd philistine, "Anyway, you guys If you can't get it out, there's no need to talk about it. My father, the queen, and my mother love me the most, and my eldest brother is the prince. They will definitely listen to my words.
If you go and ask around, you will know who I, King Weihai, am.
What I say is more powerful than what you say by a thousand or ten thousand words!
Moreover, I am in Weihaiwei. If I want to send troops, my father must send me. My other brothers are too far away, or they must guard the key points.
It's different for me. I'm the Weihaiwei. I'm supposed to be on guard against you and Gao Li. "
Zhu Jun's words made the two people's hearts sink.
The two exchanged glances, but they didn't dare to agree. That was more than one million taels of silver.
How can they get it?
"Your Highness, can the two of us discuss this?" Nitta Giyuu said.
"Okay, just give me a reply before tomorrow!" After saying that, Zhu Jun asked someone to see the guest off.
After the two left Prince Weihai's palace, Nanmu Chengcai said: "I thought that Prince Weihai was a principled person, but I didn't expect that he was also a philistine!"
"This is in line with human nature, isn't it?" Nitta Yoshiyong said: "It is said that this time, the people of the Southern Dynasty were killed and their armor was thrown away. More than two thousand people, less than 10% of the people who fled back, and almost 10% of the people of King Weihai There were no casualties, which showed how powerful the opponent was.
Moreover, the other party also has a secret weapon, and it was this secret weapon that defeated Yingchang. If we can get this secret weapon, the Southern Dynasties will definitely be out of the question! "
"You want to promise him? That's more than one million taels of silver. If we agree, the emperor won't kill us?" Kusunoki Chengcai said.
"If the other side really captured the Southern Dynasties, then what does a mere one million taels count?
The premise is that the other party is really willing to send troops.
After taking over the Southern Dynasty, there was more than one million taels of silver?
After all, we still made a profit. Nitta Giyuu thought, "We might as well agree and coax help from the other party. As long as we are rewarded by Emperor Daye and occupy Dayi, the Emperor will be happy."
When the time comes, we will convince the Emperor, and the Emperor will not refuse.
Because from beginning to end, we didn’t spend a single ounce of money! "
"A white wolf with empty gloves!" Kusunoki Chengcai's eyes lit up.
"Yes, it is a white wolf with nothing. For us, there is not much loss. Moreover, you have also seen the soldiers under the command of King Weihai. They are all tall, mighty and powerful. At first glance, they are the best among the best.
What he just said must not be a lie. "
Nitta Giyuu was envious in his heart. Compared with the tall Daye people, the people in their Japanese island country were generally short in stature.
Standing in front of a great man, he was like a child.
Elites like this can indeed sweep across the Japanese island country.
As expected, it is a kingdom of heaven. Even if there are wars and no unification, it is far from what the Japanese island country can compare with.
It is better to hold on to the great cause now, and wait for the great cause to dominate the world in the future, and the Japanese island country may be able to get more benefits.
Moreover, this King of Weihai is very greedy for money. If you can impress him, you can take advantage of him in the future.
After thinking about it for a while, the two of them felt that there was a lot to be done about this matter, and their mood couldn't help but feel better.
So the next day, the two asked to see Zhu Jun again.
"His Royal Highness King Weihai, one million two hundred thousand taels is really too much. How about one million taels of silver, and I can even convince the King of Heaven!" Nitta Giyuu looked embarrassed.
Zhu Jun said calmly: "What's 1.2 million taels? The price has increased today. 1.5 million taels, one tael less, no need to talk!"
