This situation is exactly what Ou Xiao wants to see.
A strange smile flashed across his face. Ou Xiao directly took these Japanese people to a huge ship and took out some refined salt glass samples for them to enjoy.
In the process of appreciation, these Japanese people come up with various questions, and Ou Xiao tries to explain them patiently as much as possible, so that each of them is full of expectations and greed for these businesses.
Feel the temperature is almost after Ou Xiao direct mouth way
"Everyone has seen everything, but the official can tell you that these goods are valuable even if they are placed in Dachao …"
"The price of these goods will be very high. I wonder if the consortium behind you can eat these goods. If you don’t eat them, you can transport them back to Dachao for sale …"
Ou Xiao can clearly feel the greedy expression of some Japanese faces after saying this sentence, and there are some signs of dissipation directly due to his just words.
Because Ou Xiao answered clearly and told them.
To get these goods, but they have to pay a huge price beyond their imagination
But how could Ou Xiao allow these Japanese to back down with the idea of plundering wealth from Japan … As soon as their faces changed, Ou Xiao Yin rang again.
"But considering your financial resources, maybe many consortia don’t have so much cash and gold to buy these valuable goods. In this case, our guard has made a decision to give you a compromise, that is, equivalent materials will be exchanged for these goods from the official …"
After listening to Ou Xiao’s words, people who just calmed down in Japan became fanatical again.
As soon as Ou Xiao finished speaking, he asked consciously, "Lord Ou, do you want materials?"
"Brass and sulfur …" A dozen Japanese people looked at Ou Xiao at the same time and answered without thinking.
Then he went on to add: "Of course, it is impossible for the official to bring so many goods without taking back one or two silver and gold. The official decided that you need cash and gold to pay for half of all the goods, and brass and sulfur to pay for the other half …"
Ou Xiao decided that for these slightly weaker Japanese consortia, it can definitely be called a timely help. As soon as Ou Xiao’s voice fell these days, his face once again showed a greedy expression of refined salt glass mirror goods, and he wished that the horse would take it for himself …
With greed, it becomes natural to bid …
Bidding for hundreds of thousands of tons of grain advocates selling 11 taels of silver directly at a high price.
At 20,000 tons of refined salt, 220 taels of silver are sold at a high price …
Thousands of glass mirrors were sold at twice the price of the big market.
Soon a data list was sent to Ou Xiao by the Ministry.
"My Lord, our sales results have been counted out … according to the quotation just now, we can recover silver 6.502 million, gold 252 thousand from these Japanese consortia. In addition to these gold and silver, we can also get silver brass worth three million and silver sulfur worth one million and two thousand from these consortia."
"That is to say, we brought back a total of thirteen million and two thousand silver goods and gold and silver on this trip …"
"According to the sales price of these goods in the big market, we earned almost four million and two thousand silver on this trip … Of course, if we only count the goods we brought, we earned a total of seven million and two thousand silver on this trip, which can be called profiteering …"
For this result, which is both expected and unexpected, Ou Xiao’s face expression has not changed much …
After some meditation, he said to the Ministry: "This result has long been expected by the general manager. The general manager is right. Since the implementation of the closed-door policy in Japan, it has become a clod. It seems to us that it is nothing more than refined salt and glass mirrors, but they are regarded as treasures in their eyes."
Judging from today’s situation, these Japanese people are far less eager for food than glass mirrors and refined salt, plus they have abundant brass and sulfur. In the future, our foreign trade on the same day should focus on this side.
"To put it more clearly and simply, glass mirrors and refined salt are very cheap to buy from the Japanese, and brass and sulfur are very expensive in our dynasty. Of course, silver is very abundant in the future."
"Only in this way can our foreign trade transactions with Japan in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces achieve ten thousand profits …"
Speaking of which, there is still one thing that Ou Xiao didn’t say in his heart, that is, there is almost nothing to plunder Japan’s wealth as much as possible and weaken its economic and war potential …
At that same time that the first trip to Shanxi and Shaanxi province won a great victory
Jin and Wang Ting, who were far away, also welcomed an envoy from Emperor Chongzhen of the Great Dynasty.
Of course, Huang Taiji, the emperor of the late Jin Dynasty, did not look too quickly at the messengers.
On the one hand, it’s not a fair mission for the imperial court to send envoys to the post-Xu Jin State. For Huang Taiji, this secret mission of the imperial court is not only an insult to the post-Xu Jin State, but also an insult to himself …
On the other hand, that is, in the immediate future, Xu Jin is still in a hostile state with the great court. Under such circumstances, how could Emperor Jin summon an enemy emissary?
Holding this idea, Huang Taiji directly ordered Fan Wencheng, the first minister of the late Jin Dynasty, to meet with the big messenger.
Maybe it’s because they are both Han Chinese that they don’t talk so much.
With the great imperial court’s great trust, the emissary only made a brief greeting with Fan Wencheng and told the purpose of his visit.
Fan Wencheng, a Han Chinese who has tied his fate to that of the post-Xu Jin State, has long forgotten his identity and ancestors.
As soon as the messenger’s words were finished, Fan Wencheng fell into meditation and thought about the great benefits that Jin might get in this action
Soon Fan Wencheng shot two shirts with his eyes closed.
The other side waited anxiously and asked as calmly as possible: "I want to know what benefits Hou Jin can get from this action if he agrees to the request of the big court …"
Without thinking, the imperial envoy replied, "The whole Liaodong Peninsula … requires the late Jin to send troops to Liaodong, but the imperial court can acquiesce that Liaodong Peninsula is occupied by the late Jin …"
Fan Wencheng, who answered this seemingly costly question from the imperial court, refused without thinking: "Joke … is it true that the imperial court recognizes me as a queen? The Liaodong Peninsula will not be in the hands of the imperial court, and I will send troops to occupy it. What will I bring to the grand court by myself? "
"What do you say this benefit is not good, not to mention moving the sweat …"
When I heard this, the messenger’s forehead was directly sweating with beans because of nervousness.
However, when he thought of his teacher Zhang Qian’s heavy delay before he left, he fought back his worries and asked in a calm and soothing tone as much as possible.
"I don’t know what kind of interests you think can impress you, Fan …"
Fan Wencheng quickly flashed a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and then replied to the big messenger: "Everyone knows that the tiger and leopard weapons are very powerful, and my late fighters are not good at fighting because they are good at riding and shooting, which is very bad for siege."
"In this case, if I want to take the Tiger and Leopard Army in Liaodong, I must have a firearms unit that is very good at siege. I hope that the grand court can give the latter a batch of firearms, especially for siege heavy artillery. I believe that with this batch of heavy artillery, Khan will definitely agree to send troops to Liaodong. After all, the Tiger and Leopard Army is also the enemy of the latter, and Khan will also take revenge …"
Speaking of which, the ambassador’s forehead has once again emitted a big sweat of beans.
Because this condition in Fan Wencheng is too harsh, firearms are not only the advantage of the Tiger and Leopard Army against the late Jin fighters, but also the advantage of the court against the late Jin fighters.
If the Fan Wencheng conditions are met and a batch of heavy artillery can be used to attack the city, the court will not have no advantage when it faces the latter in the future.
A face of nervous emissary recognized that Fan Wencheng must have no other conditions after this harsh condition, and Fan Wencheng sounded again.
"In addition, there is another problem, that is, the strength of the late Jin Dynasty …"
"Because most of the troops in the late Jin Dynasty will come to guard against the serious shortage of troops in the late Jin Dynasty who can attack Liaodong …"
Chapter five hundred and thirty-two Confused
The imperial envoy frowned and asked, "What does Master Fan mean?"
Fan Wencheng said directly without hesitation: "The imperial court immediately reduced the troops stationed at the border, just as after that, Xu Jin could feel the sincerity of the imperial court to deploy troops from all over the country to attack and destroy the butch troops occupying Liaodong …"
Of course, such a big thing can’t be decided by an imperial envoy.
The idea of Fan Wencheng just blurted out that the imperial envoy was lost in thought.
After some reflection, I replied with hesitation: "Sir Fan can’t give you an answer immediately, but the official will send someone back to the capital to report to the court. Sir Fan, you ask the official to believe that the court will reply to you in half a month at the latest."
With that, the imperial envoy continued: "In addition to the idea that the official has just come out, Master Fan has another idea in the imperial court: that is, unite North Korea to send troops to Liaodong … so that the butch and leopard troops occupying Liaodong Peninsula will be attacked on three sides … and the greater our chances of winning the Liaodong Peninsula will be …"
"In order to let North Korea send troops to the court, it is willing to take out five hundred and two thousand pieces of silver and let Houjin hand it over to North Korea to send troops to Liaodong Peninsula Army …"
Wei Zheng, the commander-in-chief of Tiger and Leopard Army in Datong Governor’s Office, is listening to Ou Xiao, Deputy Director of Foreign Trade Department, with a big smile on his face.
When Wei Zheng learned that this trip not only plundered 10 million taels of gold and silver from Japan, but also brought back several pieces of brass and sulfur from Japan, his smile became even stronger.
With a look of excitement, Ou Xiao and others ordered, "Well done … You have done a good job … Shuai decided to reward Ou’s adult with 12,000 silver. From now on, all foreign trade departments in Shanshan Governor’s Office will be in charge of Ou’s adult. In addition, Shuai also decided that from all the gold and silver earned by the foreign trade department in the future, the Governor’s Office will draw 12,000 silver from it and give it to officials in Shanshan and Shaanxi provinces … In particular, officials of the foreign trade department who participate in foreign trade transactions must be rewarded …"
