answer.
Zhang Xiaobao said with a sad look: "Cheap is cheap, but unfortunately, we didn’t want to change livestock for work. We have a tricycle and we want to kill meat. If it’s really the price, then eating meat will pay for it. It's better to transfer it from elsewhere, we can't afford it, because the livestock eat too much.
In this case, let's use the extra corn to exchange livestock in our country. You can wait two months. If we still have surplus, then don't give you the money for nothing. You can't let your people starve to death. "
Zhang Xiaobao's words were very helpless, but there was no feeling of helplessness in the meaning of the expression, that is, not to change, and very tactfully refused.
Thinking that the other party was going back to bargaining, when the time came, he would also follow the bargaining Ke Mu and was stupid at this time, the other party even refused directly.
The two maids who were in charge of pouring the tea held back the urge to laugh. They looked at Kemuji and the seven people with pity in their eyes, and they said that you could not have a good talk with, because they met Xiao Gongzi and Little lady, can't you use the methods you thought of at the beginning
The three of them were very comfortable on the sidelines. They thought that this negotiation would be very difficult, because Tubo had often talked with Datang before, and each time they could not achieve better results.
Sometimes I make a tough posture on my own side, and the other party does not compromise at all. The main reason is that both sides are adults. They know that war is not a child’s play. If you can make peace, you can only risk using war to threaten unless you are sure. Replaced with two children, the other side is helpless.
Unlike an adult, a little baby thinks about a lot of things, and he will do what he thinks is right. If an adult threatens to send troops, the people of Tubo will not believe it, but the cuckoo says to send troops, that’s absolutely There is nothing to doubt.
Because she didn't think about other things at all, and didn't think about the situation within the country, she just wanted to fight.
It's amazing, it's amazing.
The three old men have this idea in their minds at the same time. They don’t think that Juanjuan and Xiaobao are not clear about the cost of the war, but the two children clearly know in their hearts, but they use their age advantages to put pressure on the Tubo people. The effect is still so good. .
But where did Mujiji know the abilities of the cuckoo and Xiaobao, he was really frightened. It was so easy for the two children to do what they said, so he asked tentatively, "Then how much money do you think should be enough to eat meat?"
"Ah? Meat? You don’t have much money to eat meat. You don’t have to eat donkeys and horses for meat. Do you have cows? If you have cows, the price can be more expensive. A normal cow can be counted as your fifteen. , After all, my Datang cattle are not so delicious, and the court is in charge.
If donkeys and ordinary horses are useless, we can use poultry meat instead. Our family does this. It is very easy to raise. If a chicken is sold in my village, it is twenty liters and weighs ten. About a catty, a catty is only two cents, how much can a donkey weigh? I'll count more for you. Two hundred catties. That is four hundred yuan. How much can a horse weigh? I will count him more than four hundred catties, and I will count him six hundred catties for a cow.
Isn't this price coming out? The donkey is basically 400 characters, the horse is 800 characters, and the cow is 1,200 characters, which is another two hundred characters. At that time, the specific weight has to be weighed out.
Of course, there is one more thing, you have to compensate you. After all, your weight will drop sometimes after you have shipped it. Based on the friendship between us, I am willing to pay this money, plus a penny per catty, which is a lot Bar? "
Zhang Xiaobao gave such a price. The price of the chicken is measured by the weight of the livestock. It is placed in Zhangjiazhuang in Sanshui County. The internal price can be sold for 20 cents. It is all too much. Who is okay? Buy someone else’s and raise it in your own home.
"How is this possible? They are donkeys and cows, not to mention the purpose, but the taste is different." Ke Muji argued that it is definitely not sold at this price.
"How come the taste is different? Indeed, no chicken is delicious. My smoked chicken and roast chicken are not ordinary things. I will ask you to taste that taste later, as long as you can make the taste of donkey meat and beef. At this level, I will raise the price for you."
Zhang Xiaobao also retorted.
But Muji and seven people have already tasted it. There is a shop specializing in smoked chicken and roast chicken in Yizhou. I don’t know what is added in it. The taste is really good, especially the capercaillie, holding one. Shake the legs lightly, and the meat will fall down.
But this is not because the chicken is really delicious. It is caused by different methods and different seasonings when it is made. Even for livestock, if the same method is used, the taste can only be better.
But Mu Jiji knew it in his heart, but he couldn't say it. He knew that once he said it, then the other party would have reason to lower the price. First, he raised the price of livestock on his side, and then talked about the cost of production. In the end, it may be lower than it is now.
Negotiations, it is natural to pay attention to the means, but Mu Zhiji immediately put the matter aside, and said to Wang Juan: “The price is too low, let’s talk about the war. It’s better than that, and I will pay compensation from Tubo. Give 100,000 guan worth of things to King Zhang and his family, and then compensate Datang 50,000 guan worth of money, and Datang will no longer send troops to Tubo."
"That's not okay, it's too little. You have to compensate my family's 200,000 guan worth of things, and compensate me for the 100,000 guan compensation for the soldiers, otherwise Datang will have to fight."
Wang Juan shook his head at Komachi and refused, and said his own terms, which didn't sound like many, and together it was only 300,000 guan.
For Tubo, 300,000 tons of money can be easily taken out, but the unattainable purpose is no longer that.
He asked Wang Juan again: "Then forget what you said? At that time, I will really lose money from Tubo. You can't repent and make a written statement."
"Okay, Xiaobao, write it." Wang Juan agreed without hesitation. Zhang Xiaobao wrote a contract with the contents of what Wang Juan said, in duplicate, and both parties pressed their fingerprints.
But he put it away happily, and was about to leave the second thing alone. When he left for the next step, Wang Juan smiled at him and said:
"It's hard to get it. The writing is written on it. Within a month, you Tubo will send things over. It must reach 300,000. I have the writing. If you dare to lie to me, if I don't organize three An army of 100,000 slaughtered you to Tubo, and I would hang myself at the Pengzhou Pass, Xiaobao."
"I promise to support you. Even if I sell all the business in my family, I will also raise enough money for you to attack Tubo. The big deal is to kill all the Tubo people and my family will find a profitable business again. If I can't do it , I hanged there with you." Zhang Xiaobao said with support.
As soon as the two people said these words, Mu Ji and the seven people, including Old Man Bi, were moved. They were too cruel. They used their lives as a bet to threaten each other to see if they would send troops.
But Mu Jiji smiled awkwardly and said, "It doesn't have to be this way, right?"
"It is necessary. I will do what I say, just like when I entered Tubo to kill you tens of thousands of people. My words are the final decision, and no one can change it." Wang Juan stared at his unknowable eyes. Said in a halt.
"Okay, I will definitely give it, 300,000 sticks, delivered within a month." But it was impossible to doubt the determination of this little girl, such a big boy, could do anything.
But as soon as he agreed, Wang Juan smiled, turned his head and said to Old Man Bi: "Grandpa Bi, you hurry up to deliver the letter to the capital, saying that I'm in charge of the imperial court. By then, my family will get 200,000 pens. Give it to the court, and I don’t need a penny at all."
Old man Bi smiled and nodded, and said to Wang Juan, “You don’t have to be like that. Your family just keeps all three hundred thousand guanxi, and the court won’t say anything. The emperor is a generation of famous emperors, you and Xiaobao. The portrait of the emperor is posted in the emperor’s study. When you see the emperor, you can make something good for the emperor. Even if you are about to mobilize soldiers from the entire Jiannan Road, the emperor will happily agree to you.
You may not know that when you are leading the troops, Chaozhong is waiting for news of your return every day, and even if you stop the court meeting, you must first take care of the news from Yizhou. "
"Yes, that's the case. You still don't know how many people like you and Xiaobao. If you agree, you agree. What about the court? No one will punish you." Old man Yao also helped.
Wang Juan smiled brightly, and turned his head to the stunned Ke Mu and said: "Have you heard? Give me money quickly and want to play tricks with me. You are a bit too tender, who am I? I am a little boy. , Who can be as knowledgeable as the little boy?"
But Wu Jiji looked at Wang Juan blankly. He was really surprised. He was surprised at the imperial connivance to Wang Juan, and at Wang Juan's intelligence, that he knew what he was going to do next.
It’s true that I want to achieve the goal of separation through this negotiation, so that the emperor of Datang no longer believes in Wang Juan, and even the crime of ruling the family of Zhang Wang, if we can let the family of Zhang Wang leave Datang with a grudge. Then it would be even better.
But what I didn't expect was that my plan had just started, and it was seen through. The news from the other two populations was unbelievable.
Jujuan and Xiaobao had long been recognized in the Tang Dynasty’s capital court. According to this, 300,000 guanxi must be given. If you don’t guarantee Junjuan to send troops, it is the same if you are in her position. of.
When Kemu was thinking about things, Wang Juan yawned after eating the marshmallows and said, "Come here today. You can send a letter back to ask, and we will discuss the exchange of livestock for food tomorrow."
After that, Wang Juan got up and left. Zhang Xiaobao followed. The old man Bi and the other three were also not accompanied. Only two maids were responsible for arranging a place to rest for Kemuji and the seven people. The rest of the money was not needed. Zhang Wang's family bears it themselves.
But when Mu Jiji returned to the place arranged by Zhang's family, he started to write a letter, soaked in the ink, but when he was about to write, he suddenly didn't know how to write.
Could it be that he was unsuccessful in the negotiation, but when he was calculating people, he was calculated by others, causing Tubo to lose 300,000 tons of money at once
It is a matter of the country's war. "
But Mu Jiji always felt that he was very dangerous when sitting opposite the cuckoo. He didn't know where the specific danger came from, but he just didn't dare to do it casually.
After a lesson from the people who followed, he began to think about how to get more food from the livestock of Tubo, otherwise a lot of people would starve to death this winter. At that time, Datang sent troops again without taking advantage of Qinghuang. Tubo still has the strength to fight back.
The person being trained stopped speaking, but when he talked about things he didn't want to mention in his heart, he was stared at by Zhang Xiaobao, and he felt that his soul was gone. It seemed that he would have to next time. The same as being killed.
The other five people also became silent. They were very helpless with the results of today's negotiations. They couldn't help much, and they couldn't show the momentum of Tubo. They kept their mouths on sending troops. What momentum is there
When Komuji sent the letter away, the whole person seemed to have just been fished out of the water, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
…
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are much more relaxed. Negotiating between the victorious country and the defeated country, if it can still benefit the defeated country, then the negotiators should not kill them.
We can't do things that are useless. Wang Juan began to plan what methods can be used to make Tubo really afraid, and will be at a disadvantage in future negotiations.
Zhang Xiaobao was calculating how much the other party needed to compensate. He couldn't ask the price casually. He had to take into account the other party's tolerance and the financial support of the Tubo kingdom.
Calculating, Zhang Xiaobao stopped and said to Wang Juan: "It is estimated that it is impossible to compensate them for too many things at once. It will take a few years. The time has not been very good for the past few years, especially when we leave. After the Yizhou, Tubo people easily repented easily."
"Isn't the compensation 300,000 yuan? Isn't it possible that Tubo can't get the money?" Wang Juan didn't expect that Zhang Xiaobao was going to let Tubo pay in installments, and asked suspiciously.
"Three hundred thousand guns are direct war compensation, and it is hopeful that Jiang people will be compensated. This is also to be calculated. The ultimate goal of killing is to get benefits. It is no good to kill all the people in the world. I am going to ask them to compensate the Wangjiang area with 600,000 guan, which includes compensation for the families of the dead, and compensation for the local economic construction due to this matter.
As for the death of the entire family, there is no way. I will set up a separate fund in that place to help build the place. We can’t ask for this money, and we have to return it to the people.
How could Tubo take out 600,000 sticks? Then they have to be obtained through means. First, give them a hope that they don't need to spend any more money after they recover a little bit, so that they will agree to the previous money.
My idea is to let them give out 200,000 Guans at one time, and let them pay off the remaining 400,000 Guans within five years. If their food is not affected by any impact next year, they will turn their faces and refuse to pay. "
After Zhang Xiaobao took such a long time, even if he could get a 200,000 cans, the others were not ready to come back.
Wang Juan listened to Zhang Xiaobao’s words and thought about it carefully, and finally understood Zhang Xiaobao’s plan, and said, "You mean, when we want to hit them, there is an excuse, right? I know them clearly. If they will fall back on the bill, I still put it forward, and give them a chance to fall back on the bill."
Zhang Xiaobao nodded: "Yes, that's what I think. Tubo must be defeated in the future. Even if you don't need to lead the troops, Li Longji will not let them go, especially because of our arrival and the economic situation of Datang. With the changes that occurred ahead of time, Li Longji absolutely couldn't bear the opportunity not to fight, instead he waited.
Over the past period of time, our good gunpowder formula and technology can become a condition of exchange with the court, and a lot of benefits can be obtained from it. As long as the court mentions it, then we can know whether it is necessary to use foreign troops.
According to my estimation, at most three years, the imperial court will expand to the surrounding area, not only because of the increased productivity of the technology we provide, but also because of the development of our medical school. It will be easier to have children and the population will grow substantially. In three years, if the people work hard, some people can even give birth to three children.
Coupled with the fact that many men died in the early wars and the proportion of women has increased, it is very common that people who are a little richer usually marry several wives. The cycle of childbirth does not depend on the man, but the woman. "
Wang Juan thought for a while and asked, "Then how do you know that my court will use troops against Tubo?"
"Because the Turks are now afraid of being beaten, and there are internal divisions. If you replace it, do you use your superior force to attack a tough country first, or a country that has already succumbed to me? Do it for others.
Of course, you also played a key role in it. The court dared to use troops against Tubo and was not afraid that the people who sent it out would lose, because even if other generals lose, they will be able to succeed in sending you out at that time.
The name of the chapter is wrong. "
But Mu Jiji always felt that he was very dangerous when sitting opposite the cuckoo. He didn't know where the specific danger came from, but he just didn't dare to do it casually.
