"Robbers, bandits!" Ma Xiangdong angrily slammed the stack of files in his hand on the big case, and some of the ornaments on the table shook violently. Panting heavily, leaning forward, Ma Xiangdong forced his eyes to look at Ai Qian, who was sitting motionless in front of him: "This is naked blackmail, shameless blackmail." ”

Listening to Ma Xiangdong's roar, Ai Qian's drooping eyelids slowly raised, and he stared at Ma Xiangdong with a smile: "Ma Xiang, this is just business, why be angry?" Business doesn't work, friendship is still there, don't you say? "People,

He slowly slapped the paper scattered on the table by Ma Xiangdong, cleaned it up one by one, and prepared to carry it in his arms. This action made Ma Xiangdong stunned, and immediately sounded in his mind that Min Ruoying only allowed the negotiation to succeed, not to fail.

Reaching out and holding Ai Qian's hand.

"Okay, since it's business, then if you can ask for a price, of course I can pay it back on the spot, right?" Ma Xiangdong asked rhetorically.

"I'm very sorry, this business, no counteroffer." Ai Qian is like a cunning hyena, he has found the opponent's fatal weakness, and is accumulating enough strength, ready to explode the opponent's chrysanthemum at once, and dig out the opponent's anus, how can there be any reason to bargain for the opponent.

Ma Xiangdong's action just now has fully exposed the essence of Selli's inner sorrow.

"Ma Xiang, this is a monopoly business, except for us, there is no other." He looked at the other party with a smile: "And our things are really good, and they are indeed worth the price." ”

"I can't see a knife, why is it worth fifteen taels of silver?" Ma Xiangdong said angrily: "Fifteen taels of silver, can we make three of the same handles ourselves?" ”

"Not necessarily, right?" Ai Qian laughed and said: "What is the quality of our knife, I believe that Ma Xiang must have the corresponding information in his hand, this is the ring head knife that my Ming army is equipped with, sharpening iron like clay, the saber equipped by the soldiers of the Chu State is no different from tofu scum in front of our ring head knife." On the battlefield, one of our knives can cut off countless knives of the kind you call five taels of silver. So, Ma Xiang, there is a reason why you are expensive! If you don't know the goods, you can know the goods. ”

This kind of knife, Ma Xiangdong has indeed seen. Ai Qian brought samples, and the people in the arsenal of the military department also tried the goods, and he had also seen this kind of knife from Jiang Shangyan's five hundred soldiers. The ring head knife is standard for the Ming army, but no matter what, he is not worth fifteen taels of silver.

But the problem is that the State of Chu can't create such a sharp steel knife.

"This repeater, you actually ask for two hundred taels of silver, how can you get this price?" Ma Xiangdong has a weak tunnel.

"Ma Xiang, this crossbow machine is our Ming Dynasty's weapon for the country!" Ai Qian said: "He is light and easy to carry, whether it is used for field battles or defending cities, he can play his function to the fullest." A repeater can shoot hundreds of crossbow arrows at the moment when you take a few breaths, Ma Xiang, can you imagine this speed? You take these breaths, how many arrows can the best archers of the Chu army shoot? How many arrows can they shoot? Ah, I know, the Chu army also has repeating crossbows, but the Chu army's repeating crossbows can only fire three at a time, and they are launched at the same time. Actually, it can't be called a repeater. ”

Ma Xiangdong's lips trembled.

"Our Ming repeater crossbow is not only a nightmare for the infantry, but even the cavalry, in front of him can only bow down, no matter how fast the horse is, it can't outrun the crossbow arrows shot out, as long as it is in front of the team, a dozen or so of this kind of crossbow can be deployed in front of the team, which can make an established cavalry team hate the battlefield, and they can't even touch the opponent's edge. So, he's worth the price. ”

"Okay Ma Xiang, I know you're going to talk about Thunderbolt again? Have you seen his power? Have you ever seen a trebuchet that moves quickly and throws stone projectiles on the move? Didn't you? Can't you imagine them speeding over the field, and the warriors operating the crossbow machines on them are frantically pouring their crossbow arrows at the enemy? ”

Ai Qian's seductive voice chattered in Ma Xiangdong's ear.

Ma Xiangdong sat down abruptly, "Of course I know how good they are. ”

"That's right. Ma Xiang, how many troops does my Ming have in the Ming Dynasty? With all the county soldiers, is there 100,000? No! But we are majestic on the battlefield, first defeat Qin Feng, and then attack the Qi State, Deng Pu is famous, Guo Xiancheng is sonic shock to the mainland, right? What happened to them? One died, the other lost so much that he barely had to wear his underwear? What to rely on, of course, is to rely on our Ming Dynasty's strong and light armor, sharp weapons and a variety of unique Zhenguo weapons. At the beginning, the queen asked Her Majesty to sell these weapons to the Chu State, and Her Majesty and his wife were deeply affectionate and had no permission, but this is not the following statement? Whether it is the prime minister, the military department, and of course, the army, they are all strongly opposed to the sale of these weapons. In the end, His Majesty forced it, and this price was personally set by my first assistant of the Ming Dynasty and the secretary of the military department. If you don't buy it, it will be exactly what they want, and they will be able to explain it in front of Your Majesty. ”

Ai Qian sat up straight: "To be honest, I don't want to sell it." He looked at each other with a smile: "Who knows when we will become enemies?" ”

Ma Xiangdong looked at each other in a daze.

"Ma Xiang, now the form of Da Chu, I think no one can know better than you, the first assistant, it can be said that Da Chu is already standing on the edge of the cliff. It could collapse at any moment. Ai Qianchun is kind and seductive: "Although Cheng Shuai has gained a firm foothold in Jinghu, he has only gained a firm foothold, if he accidentally breaks his foot, it will be a big disaster." Hundreds of thousands of eastern border troops, if you say no, it will be gone, you say, even if the Chu State recruits troops immediately, can they be trained into the elite of the Eastern Border Army of the Chu State in a short period of time? ”

"Of course not. But if Da Chu wants to resist the invasion of Qi, but he must rely on them, what should he do? People can't do it, of course they make up for it with weapons? Ma Xiang, let me be blunt, in a short period of time, the Chu army does not have the ability to fight with the Qi people, and defense has become the key, so with the most elite weapons and equipment of our Ming Dynasty, and the advantage of the defending side, there is no problem in holding most of the country. The coming day is long, slowly drawing! ”

"You're right, we can't afford it!" Ma Xiangdong no longer has the mind to bargain with his opponent, the emperor above pressed to negotiate, and the opponent held down Da Chu's death hole, even if it was naked blackmail, it could only be endured. He found that now, in addition to complaining about his own hardships and being low, he looks like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, maybe it will be a little better than the effect of angry hair and rushing to the crown.

"The wealth of Chu is the best in the world, not to mention that we can't compare with the Ming Dynasty, it is the Qi State, which is known as the world's most powerful country, in terms of money, it can't be compared with the Chu State, if you say that you can't take it, it's really funny." Ai Qian seemed to have heard a great joke and laughed.

"I really can't take it out." Ma Xiangdong spread his hands: "In this big battle, the state of Chu mobilized 200,000 troops, as well as hundreds of thousands of people, a battle that lasted for more than half a year, almost emptied the treasury, if it wins, then naturally everything is easy to say, the captured floating wealth, land and other property can be discounted to make up for military expenses, but unfortunately we failed, the defeat was complete, the treasury was empty, and the hundreds of thousands of eastern border troops were wiped out, don't you need a pension?" A large number of refugees from the six eastern counties have poured into the interior, so don't they need to be resettled? Rebuild the army, don't you need military spending? ”

"That's right!" Ai Qian expressed understanding.

Ma Xiangdong smiled and patted the stack of files in front of him: "The first batch of weapons that Da Ming is going to sell to us is as high as five million taels of silver, you say, what will I pay you?" ”

"Although the six eastern counties are lost, they are not the anointed land of Dachu after all, Ma Xiang, you can increase taxes, war taxes, those local tyrants in Jiangnan can take it." Ai Qian came up with an idea: "Add war tax, now that the national disaster is at the head, every Chu person must bravely go to the national disaster, what is it to contribute a little silver?" As soon as this war tax is added, everything will come. ”

"Taxes are naturally to be added. Da Chu has not raised taxes for many years, and it is reasonable to add a little, but it can't completely transfer the money to the people, otherwise, the external troubles have not yet settled, and the internal strife will start again, at that time, it will be really hopeless. Ma Xiangdong said: "I have calculated, the taxes and fees added can only erase the wounds of this defeat, and I can't take out such a large sum of money to buy your weapons, and this business is naturally not only one, there will definitely be one in the future, right?" ”

"Of course, this time it is only enough for Da Chu to arm an army of 50,000 people. In my opinion, 50,000 people is definitely not enough. ”

"Fifty thousand people, it costs five million taels, and a soldier will cost one hundred taels of silver, are all your soldiers in the Ming Dynasty like this?" Ma Xiangdong asked.

"Ma Xiang, our soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, up and down, are really more than one hundred taels." Ai Qian said proudly. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty naturally have more than one hundred taels on their bodies, but in addition to the weapons and equipment on their bodies, they also have many other gadgets, small objects, some wound medicines prepared by the party, some special equipment, and so on. Of course, Ai Qian will not tell each other these little secrets. It's also a hundred taels, but what a soldier of the Ming army has, I don't know how much more than the Chu army. In the same way, with the addition of these things, the survival rate on the battlefield can be greatly improved.

"We really can't afford to pay, so Lord Ai, either allow us to owe money, or you will lower the price and give a reasonable price!" The horse spread his hands to the east.

"Looks like you're really embarrassed!" Ai Qian laughed, "Then Ma Xiang, let me think of a way for you, maybe you don't need to take out such money, or even only need to take a small part of the money to get these equipment!" ”

(Finally, say two more, I looked at the book review today, there are a lot of advertisements during this time, but I still saw a book friend who said that it seems to be more scattered, there is no center, here the gunman is allowed to defend a few words: the writing of the horse pawn is more traditional, and it is not a single main line, it is several days of clues to unfold at the same time, and finally slowly converge to the center, to be honest, this way of writing is a little difficult, and it is not flattering, from the time when the horse stepped on the world, I tried, but the pen is not enough, and then in the Prancing Horse world, I am the king, I've been working this writing technique, but it's still not successful enough, and when I get to the front of the horse, I feel like I've improved a lot, at least until now, I haven't written yet. There are still several threads slowly converging towards the center, and of course, this method of writing can make reading a little more difficult, because there are things that the reader needs to experience for themselves. I also know that this way of writing will cause me to lose a lot of readers, but I will still stick to it. Self-improvement, sometimes for the author, also has a different kind of pleasure. ）
