"this……"
"It seems a little inappropriate..."
The barbarian envoy hesitated for a long time and could only nod.
But he seemed to have a bad feeling. If Zhang Bao and the others really opened their mouths, wouldn't they be doomed?
"Of course, we people in Daxia are also very reasonable. So, this time we will send 100,000 troops to your grassland."
"According to my estimate, it will take three or four months."
"As for the military expenses and food and grass needs, we just need to follow this standard. As for the pensions after our soldiers die in battle, we will find a way by ourselves when the time comes, as well as the comfort money and child support for the family members. We’ll talk about fees and other things later, just follow this.”
"If it can be decided, how about we immediately mobilize our troops and attack at any time?"
Zhang Bao asked the man.
"this……"
"One hundred thousand troops?"
"Three or four months of food rations and military expenses?"
"this……"
The envoy of the barbarians was immediately confused.
To be honest, they can afford this fee, but such a huge number is also quite large for their Klei tribe.
Moreover, their Kelie tribe has not been idle recently. They have been constantly encircling and suppressing Hudugu's troops, which consumes a lot of money.
"What's wrong? You can't make the decision?"
"Isn't it? Our sincerity is already here. If you can't make the decision, then please find someone who can make the decision to talk to us next time."
As Zhang Bao spoke, he stood up and was about to walk out.
"Wait!"
"Be able to decide!"
"We agreed!"
The envoy gritted his teeth. No matter what, as long as he could induce the Daxia people to send troops to the grassland, his mission would be considered completed. After all, before coming out, the leader Chi Na had told him that no matter what the cost, he must promote cooperation. .
For the grassland people, this cooperation is not a long-term cooperation, but simply plays a role in luring the enemy in or buffering the enemy in the process.
You might as well agree first.
And for the current matter, even if the leader disagrees after returning, the worst case is that we can just talk about it later.
So the envoy gritted his teeth and decided to agree first.
"good!"
"atmosphere!"
"Then it's settled, we'll go back to find people, and you go back and prepare things. When the things arrive, we'll send troops to the grassland immediately!"
"By the way, since you can make the decision, I have another unwelcome request. I wonder if we can continue to cooperate in depth?"
Zhang Bao asked the messenger with a smile.
"In-depth cooperation?"
"What's the meaning?"
The barbarian envoy was a little confused. Didn't the ones who should cooperate have already finished cooperation?
Why is there still cooperation?
"It's like this. Recently, we in Daxia are very short of money. We can't even pay out military expenditures. Moreover, there are many rebels in the military camps in various places."
"We are thinking that since your grassland is so rich now, in addition to the normal military expenses you give us, we will borrow another sum of money from you. Don't worry, we will not use this money in vain. In a few months, We’ll give you double the interest.”
"For example, we borrow 100,000 taels of gold from you, and after we have solved the urgent need, we will return you 200,000 taels of gold, and, of this, how about I give you a 1% rebate? Sample?"
"If you promote this matter, I will give you a large sum of money privately and alone!"
"Of course, everyone else has a share."
Zhang Bao lowered his voice and said to the leading messenger.
Fu Mingli, who was behind Zhang Bao, looked at Zhang Bao in front of him in stunned silence.
What a profiteer!
What an absolute profiteer!
Fu Mingli didn't believe what Zhang Baozui said about borrowing money and getting it back doubled.
Isn't this pure nonsense?
Can this money be returned to Zhang Bao? Why don't you wake up from sleep?
Besides, when did our Daxia lack money?
This made it clear that Zhang Bao wanted to extort a sum of money from the grassland people, but he also tied up these envoys.
Looking at the expressions of these envoys, they almost forgot what they were here to do...
Fu Mingli curled his lips very covertly.
"Um?"
"So that's it?"
The eyes of the leader of the envoy were shining. Not only had he heard the news about the chaos in Daxia's internal barracks at this time, but he was also able to make some money for himself in the process of helping the Klei tribe make money.
"this……"
"This matter..."
As the leader of the envoy spoke, he kept looking back at the people behind him.
Seeing that everyone's expressions and eyes were consistent, I felt relieved.
"Don't worry, sir. After I return, I will definitely try my best to promote this matter. This matter will also be very beneficial to our tribe."
The messenger said to Zhang Bao.
"good!"
"Come on, bring the things up!"
Zhang Bao greeted outside.
Soon several people came in carrying several plates of gold.
"Several envoys have come a long way and worked hard all the way. No matter how hard they go, their hard work cannot be in vain. This is our little kindness from Daxia, and I hope you will accept it."
Zhang Bao handed over the gold.
"This... Sir, you are too polite..."
"Then we will..."
The leader of the envoy was not polite, he grabbed the gold directly and put it in his arms.
Fu Mingli, who was behind Zhang Bao, was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Is this the messenger from the grassland tribe?
For those who didn’t know, they thought they were spies Zhang Bao was about to send to the grassland tribes.
Look at that flattering look on his face. Doesn’t it mean that the prairie warriors have always behaved like this?
How come he was taken advantage of in such a short time?
After these people left Daxia's camp, Fu Mingli was about to let someone follow them to have a look, but Zhang Bao waved his hand and stopped them.
"Each of them has more than ten kilograms of gold on their bodies now. They are very vigilant. If you send someone up, they might be exposed."
"It will be troublesome then. Let my people go. They are at a high place and have a way."
"After they relax their vigilance, they may go back to their hometown. I have a feeling that China may actually be somewhere near here."
"Get ready and mobilize your troops. Zhao Sunlong and the others are already on their way."
"The troops on your side should stay still to prevent the troops from the Klei tribe from going south. I will go in personally with 50,000 troops."
Zhang Bao said to Fu Mingli.
"Fifty thousand troops?"
"Sir, didn't you say one hundred thousand before?"
Fu Mingli was a little dizzy.
"Are you a tiger?"
"I want more money and food, can't I?"
"Besides, I'll go in in batches. What's wrong? Can you count on our heads?"
Zhang Bao rolled his eyes.
