"Okay, two days is two days." Li Qimo didn't want to entangle with Zhong Yi about these details, after all, it was not early, and he wanted to go home early to sleep, so he said at the moment, "You just say how much, right?" ”
"Mr. Minister, don't worry, you have to eat one bite at a time, right?" Zhong Yi smiled, and then said while dialing the abacus, "One hundred marines, based on two days, each person will have a daily food cost of fifty pounds......
Hearing this, Commodus was dumbfounded, and Richmore jumped up from his chair at once.
"Oh Tfak?" Richmore said incredulously, "Fifty pounds a day for each person?" What did you give them to eat? How expensive is it? ”
"That's right." Zhong Yi straightened his face and said sternly, "The ingredients for them to eat are actually nothing special, just the most ordinary ingredients, and they are not worth a few dollars, this cost is mainly incurred in the safety link, first of all, I must ensure safety, I can't poison the marines of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, right?" Therefore, the ingredients purchased must be subject to the highest level of safety checks. ”
"What do you mean?" Richmore said with a dark face, "This fee is mainly incurred for security checks, right?" ”
"Yes." Zhong Yi said solemnly, "In order to ensure safety, we have used the most advanced testing equipment and the most experienced security inspectors, so this cost is a bit higher, but in order to ensure the safety of the Royal Marines, I think Mr. Minister can also understand, right?" ”
Can I say I don't understand? Richmore thought to himself.
However, even if it is fifty pounds per person per day, and ten thousand pounds for a hundred people in two days, Richmore can barely afford it, and he is regarded as being blackmailed by the other party.
At that moment, Richmore said: "Is there anything else?" ”
"Of course, as I just said, don't worry." Zhong Yi smiled slightly, and said, "The food cost per person per day is fifty pounds, and one hundred team members, two days, that is ten thousand pounds." ”
"But it's just the food, but also the accommodation."
"Accommodation fees?" Richmore felt like he was about to explode, but he held back.
"Yes, and accommodation." Zhong Yi said indifferently, "For the same reason, in order to ensure the safety of the Royal Marines of the British Empire, especially not to let them commit suicide, we are equipped with the most well-secured cells, straw ones, and guards with the most extensive security experience." ”
"Like food, it's fifty pounds per person per day, as is the cost of food."
"Well, that's another £10,000 fee, and the two add up to £20,000."
"Okay, twenty thousand pounds!" Richmore said angrily, "Your Excellency the Mayor, there are no other expenses, right? ”
20,000 pounds is already the limit of Richmore's bearing, if Zhong Yi dares to increase it again, he will not plan to give it, because if he adds more, he will break his muscles and bones.
Zhong Yi didn't mean to accept it when he saw it.
With a slight hook at the corner of his mouth, Zhong Yi continued: "Mr. Minister, the cost of food is a small amount, and the labor used to detain these hundred marines of your country and the labor cost incurred are the big one. ”
After a pause, he said: "In order to complete the disarmament of your country's marines, we have mobilized a total of 3,198 people from the Xiaoxiang Town Business Group, 1,127 people from the Camel Town Business Group, 986 people from the Shiqi Town Business Group, and 806 people from the Zhuang Town Business Group. ”
He snapped back the abacus and said, "A total of six thousand one hundred and seventeen people." ”
"So what?" Ridgmore laughed angrily, "How much are you going to charge per person?" ”
"Mr. Minister rest assured, we Chinese pay the most attention to integrity, absolutely clearly marked the price, and Tong Yu is not deceived." Zhong Yi grinned, revealing two rows of big white teeth, and said, "The four militia groups are all strong laborers, and according to the minimum standard, the daily wage of each strong laborer is one pound, which is already very fair." ”
Richmore laughed angrily: "How did you calculate this minimum standard? ”
"Calculated by reference to the taxi driver's day's income." Zhong Yi said, "You taxi drivers in London can earn almost a pound a day, and the wages of the strong men of the militia can't be as good as the taxi drivers, right?" ”
Regarding Zhong Yi's logic, Li Qimo was powerless to refute it, and said with a roll of his eyes: "And then?" ”
Zhong Yi smiled and said: "Since I was busy until late yesterday, the militia members could not get a rest, so it will definitely affect the next day's work, so it will be calculated as two days." ”
After a pause, he said: "Six thousand one hundred and seventeen people, two days, that is twelve thousand two hundred and thirty-four pounds, for the sake of calculation, let's erase it with zero, even if it is fifteen thousand pounds, okay?" Of course, this is only the salary, in addition to the salary, there is also the round-trip carriage and horse fare, the food fee, and the accommodation fee for tonight. ”
Hearing this, Richmore finally couldn't hold back and broke out completely.
"You are blatant blackmail!" "You are a bandit, robber!" ”
"Fack, you even have the face to say that we Chinese are robbers?!" Zhong Yi slapped the table violently, Huo Ran got up and said sternly, "Back then, we didn't want to buy your opium, what do you say about knocking on the door of China with warships and cannons, and forcing Chinese to buy your opium?" Does this count as a bandit? ”
"Back then, you fought all the way to Beijing, robbed countless treasures, not to mention, and burned our royal gardens in order to destroy the evidence of the crime, is this considered a bandit? Over the years, you have forced China to sign one treaty after another, so that every Chinese has just been born and has already owed you tens of thousands of pounds without doing anything, is this considered a banditry? ”
was sprayed by Zhong Yi's head and face, and Li Qimo immediately died down, and then remembered what Commodus had just said.
At this time, Zhong Yi almost put his face in front of Li Qimo's eyes, and the saliva sprayed directly on the other party's face, and said: "You criminals and prostitutes ** mongrel, what qualifications do you have to scold others as robbers?" Lao Tzu is stacking words here today, if you don't come up with 100,000 pounds, don't try to ransom people! ”
"Oh?" Richmore lost his voice, "One hundred thousand pounds? Why don't you grab it?! ”
"Yes, it's 100,000 pounds, not even one less!" Zhong Yi snorted, "In addition, let me remind you again, these 100 marines are locked up in the second prison, and they will incur expenses every day, not much, and they will increase by 10,000 pounds every day!" ”
