Chapter 560 One million taels (two chapters in one)

It took Xu Jin more than two hours to count all the property on the three Japanese ships, and the silver alone reached a huge amount of 250,000 taels. In addition, there were a large number of silk, cloth, tea, medicinal materials, iron, bronze, lacquer, porcelain, etc. The overall valuation of the ships on board was probably 400,000 taels.

It was beyond Xu Jin's expectation that a Japanese merchant was so rich. In fact, when Orishimiko led the fleet to leave Japan, she only carried 100,000 taels of capital. She only robbed several caravans on the way, and plundered several prefectures and counties in Shandong, so she accumulated such a large amount of wealth, but now all of them are cheaper Xu Jin.

If we add the wealth seized from Chen Sipan's gang of pirates, Xu Jin won nearly 700,000 taels of property on Dongsha Island, which can be said to have made a lot of money. This money is nearly one-quarter of the national treasury income the previous year, which has to be said to be amazing.

Just as Xu Jin was looking through the list of seized goods, Qi Jingtong walked over with a gloomy face, and there were more than a dozen crying Ming women following behind him.

"The civilian woman bowed to the imperial envoy and asked the imperial envoy to take charge of us." The women bowed to Xu Jinna when they saw him.

Qi Jingtong said angrily: "Sir, these women are from Lingshan Guards in Laizhou Prefecture, Shandong Province. They were robbed by Japanese pirates a few days ago."

Xu Jin raised his sword eyebrows. No wonder he found iron pots, tin pots, sleds and other things on the Japanese ship. It turned out that this group of Japanese merchants had run to Shandong to rob.

"I just asked these women that the Japanese pirates killed many officers and soldiers in Shandong and captured more than a dozen officers and soldiers on board, but they were all killed by the Japanese woman named Orishimiko for practicing swords." Qi Jingtong continued with grief and anger.

Xu Jin nodded slightly, closed the book of the registered goods and put it in his arms. Wen Yan comforted the women a few words, and promised to send them back to their hometowns. The emotions of these women gradually stabilized and were led by the military soldiers to rest.

Most Japanese women have single eyelids. Because they prefer soft food, their teeth are prone to irregularity. Orishimiko has single eyelids, but her eyes are big and bright, her teeth are neat and white, and she has two tiger teeth. This is very consistent with the girls in later Japanese animes. In the aesthetics of the Japanese, girls with little tiger teeth are very cute.

Of course, Xu Jin did not think that Orinomiko was cute in front of him, but was very disgusted. This woman's hands were covered with blood from the Ming soldiers and the people, so Xu Jin did not mind squeezing this woman hard and squeezing her to death!

The cleaned Orishimiko is indeed very beautiful. Although she is wearing shackles and handcuffs, she still stands proudly with her chest. When she was taken into the house, the first thing she said when she saw Xu Jin was: "Shameless Ming official, you have given all the money and goods on the ship, why don't you let anyone go?"

Xu Jin smiled lightly and said, "Miss Miko is proficient in Chinese. Haven't you heard of the saying that the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy? You are now a prisoner of my official, so you should have the awareness of a prisoner. Those wealth are the spoils seized by my official and deserve it. Why should you be released?"

"You... shameless, Uncle Cui, I have long said that this shameless Ming Dynasty dog ​​official could speak without trust." Miko Orishinobu said angrily.

Xu Jin was not angry because he was scolded for being scolded. He calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip and said, "Miss Miko is a little restless. I am not not not releasing you, but I have to settle the accounts before releasing you."

"What's the account?" Miko Orishinobu stared at Xu Jin fiercely. Although this young Ming official was very handsome, she looked very disgusting in her eyes, and she wanted to chop off his head with one knife.

Xu Jin took out a charcoal pen seriously, spread a piece of paper on the coffee table, and then said, "Miss Miko is a daughter-in-law, worth a hundred thousand taels is not enough?"

After Xu Jin finished writing the three words "100,000 taels" on the paper, Orishinomiko frowned, not understanding what Xu Jin was selling in the gourd for a moment, and she pursed her lips and kept silent.

Xu Jin pointed to Cui Shuimaru next to him and said, "This retainer of the Norishino family, the experienced navigator, is worth 50,000 taels, right?"

Orishinomiko finally understood what Xu Jin wanted to do and said sarcastically: "I have heard that most of your Ming Dynasty officials are corrupt officials. It seems that it is true. Let's do it, you continue to do it."

Xu Jin nodded and said, "Yes, I am indeed a corrupt official, but I am only greedy for you foreigners' wealth. Yes, let's continue to count... I also captured your twenty-seven subordinates. These warriors are all good at one to be ten, and one is not much for one thousand taels, that is 27 taels.

In addition, thirty-six people were killed and eighty-two people were injured. These people under my command were all bears who were worth one hundred. You have to pay 10,000 taels for each, that is 360,000 taels. If the injured one is 1,000 taels, the eighty-two people are 82,000 taels..."

Hearing this, even Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong were both sweating. The sir... was a bit too cruel, but it sounded so fucking.

Cui Shuimaru's face was grim and green, but Orishinomiko's nose was so angry that she was crooked. Finally, she couldn't help but retort: ​​"It's outrageous. How about the more than 400 people killed and injured under my command?"

Xu Jin raised his head and said in surprise: "Miss Miko is indeed a honest person. I want to not settle the accounts with you. After all, if you even count the ammunition money, it seems that my official has too shallow eyes. However, since Miss Miko asked, let's do it together.

Well, in this battle, Miss Miko's men were shot to death by our army. Even if each person had a bullet, one tael of silver per person, that would be 465 taels of silver. If you make up for it, it would be 500 taels. Anyway, Miss Miko's family has a silver mine, so she definitely doesn't care about giving you dozens of taels more..."

Hahahahahahaha…

Xie Sanqin could no longer hold back his laughter. Qi Jingtong and Xie Erjian held back but did not laugh out loud. Their cheeks trembled, which showed that they were very hard to endure.

Cui Shuimang couldn't help but be stunned. He thought he was already shameless. Unexpectedly, the Ming official in front of him was even more shameless, even more so than crazy.

"You... are so shameless!" Orishinomiko felt that she was exhausted and could not think of suitable words to describe the shameless Ming Dynasty official in front of her.

Xu Jin frowned and scolded: "Three guns, can you stop laughing so rudely? Even if you don't see the noble Miko, you will be scared to death."

"Ahem, brother-in-law, I... I was wrong!" Xie Sanqiang quickly suppressed his smile and said seriously. However, this kid only maintained it for two seconds, then laughed even more violently, held his stomach and ran out, gaga... like a hen who had finished giving merit.

Xu Jin withdrew his gaze and smiled and said, "I'm so sorry, Miss Tang Miko, let's continue to calculate. Well, I also heard that you have robbed and killed many officers, soldiers and people in Shandong. Let's do this. I won't make it with you carefully. I will pay 200,000 taels at a price. All of the above are..."

Xu Jin quickly listed an additive vertical formula with Arabic numerals, and soon concluded that the final result was: 819,500 taels.

Cui Shuimaru's face was ashes and said loudly: "Sir, the Iron Shin family cannot spend so much money to redeem us, too many."

Xu Jin shrugged and said, "I won't care about it, I just want so many."

At this time, Orishimiko regained her calmness and said lightly: "It's better to count it as 820,000 taels, so it's easier to remember."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Miss Miko is really generous, so that's 820,000 taels. It's not up to the point of speaking, and the words are based on the word."

As Xu Jin said that, he actually got someone to get a pen and ink, and then wrote an IOU of 820,000 taels, and smiled and said, "Come on, Miss Miko sign a letter and then press a thumbs up to avoid losing money in the future."

Orishinomiko sneered, and picked up the brush without fear to sign. Although her hands were handcuffed, she could still write with a pen. Of course, even if a master was holding a brush in his hand, he could still kill people. Xie Erjian stood beside Xu Jin, staring at him coldly, and the warning was very strong.

Miko Orishinomiko measured it and felt that she was not sure to control Xu Jin under Xie Erjian's nose. She could only give up the idea in disappointment and sign her name on the IOU.

Just as Miko Orishinomi was about to press his finger mold, Cui Shuimaru couldn't help reminding him: "Miss Miko, the Iron family can't afford so much money, and the head of the family will not agree to use so much money to redeem us. You know."

Orishinomiko said indifferently: "So what? Can this idiot still chase after his country and ask for money? This IOU is just a piece of waste paper."

After Orishimiko calmly pressed her finger on the IOU. Since the conversation between her and Cui Shuimaru just said in Japanese, Xu Jin naturally couldn't understand it. However, with Xu Jin's ability to observe his expressions, he could guess a rough idea from the expressions of the two of them, but it would not be pierced. A faint smile flashed across the corner of his mouth.

"Miss Miko is not as good as a man, and her generousness is even happier than a man." Xu Jin smiled and blew the IOU dry and put it in his arms.

Orishinomiko said coldly: "I have also called the IOU. Is it time to release the person now?"

Xu Jin smiled and said, "Miss Miko is at ease, let's do this. After I leave Dongsha Island tomorrow, I will release the 27 samurai of Master Cui Shuimaru and your subordinates, and let them return to their country to get the silver. As for Miss Miko, I will stay as hostages."

Cui Shuimaru's expression changed again, and Orishinomiko said angrily: "I knew you wouldn't let me go so easily."

Xu Jin laughed and said, "Let you go? Are you insulting my IQ or your own IQ?"

Orishinomiko was choked and couldn't speak.

"Sir, can you change it as a hostage and let Miss Miko go back and get the money?" Cui Shuimaru said carefully.

Xu Jin was very disrespectful and scolded: "You don't have enough weight, don't think that this official said that you are worth 50,000 taels, just be worth 50,000 taels. As a human being, you must have self-knowledge."

Cui Shuimang was choked and couldn't speak.

"Uncle Cui, you take people away tomorrow, and I will find a way to escape." Orishinomiko said in Japanese.

Cui Shuimarang could only nod and replied in Japanese: "Miss Miko, be careful, my subordinates will send someone to notify the head of the family and find a way to rescue Miss Miko."

Xu Jin did not stop the two from communicating in Japanese, but just looked at it with a smile, which made Orishinomiko a little scared and didn't dare to say more.

Xu Jin asked with a smile: "Is the discussion over now?"

Cui Shuimang nodded and said, "Sir, within three months, I will definitely bring money to redeem Miss Miko. Please don't make things difficult for her during this period."

"Okay, I will definitely treat Miss Miko like a VIP. By the way, you have to pay for the cost of entertaining Miss Miko during this period. Prepare tens of thousands of taels of silver to avoid the lack of ransom at the time. You have to go there more!"

Cui Shuiwan shook his face and gritted his teeth and said, "I understand."

Xu Jin slapped his forehead and said, "I almost forgot. You have to ask for a boat when you go back to Japan."

"I want it!" Cui Shuiwan's teeth were almost broken.

"Okay, I will give you a boat, which costs 100,000 taels!"

Orishinomiko couldn't help but say angrily: "It's outrageous. The cost of a three-masted sailboat is only a few thousand taels, but you dare to ask for 100,000 taels."

Xu Jin said shamelessly: "If you think it's expensive, you can just don't want it. I'll find a way to fly back and swim back."

Orishinomiko's face was twisted, her big eyes were almost on fire, and she shouted in a roaring voice: "Fifty thousand taels, only fifty thousand taels. I want to see what else you, the greedy guy, can make money."

Xu Jin smiled and said, "It's true. Does Your Excellency Cui Shuimang need weapons? It's impossible to have artillery bows and crossbows, but I can still provide some self-defense swords, one price is worth 1,000 taels."

Orishinomiko felt a sweet throat and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

Cui Shuimang's face was so green that it was so green that he had seen shameless people, but never seen such shameless people. This guy was too much!

"Yes!" Orishinomiko wiped the blood from her lips and said a word with gritted teeth.

Nowadays, the Japanese soldiers are in chaos, with robbers and warlords everywhere. If they had no weapons to defend themselves, Cui Shuimang and others would probably have been killed before they could return to the territory of the Iron Shin family.

Xu Jin praised, "Good, let me calculate first. Twenty-eight swords are 28,000 taels, plus a ship with 100,000 taels, a total of 128,000 taels. Oh... plus the previous 820,000, that is 948,000 taels, Miss Miko, I am not wrong, right?"

Miko Orishinomi sneered and said, "It's better to have one million taels. There are several silver mines under the name of my Iron family. One million taels of silver are not much."

Cui Shuiman shook his face. It was true that there were several silver mines under the Zhixin family's name, but the annual output was only about 300,000 taels. One million taels would have to be dug for three or four years without eating or drinking.

Xu Jin laughed and said, "Since Miko is so generous, I am disrespectful to you. Only one million taels are spoken without any evidence, and the words are established as the basis!"

Xu Jin immediately wrote another IOU of "one million" and asked Miko Orishino to sign. The latter signed and pressed his fingertips without looking at it. Anyway, it was a piece of waste paper, so it didn't matter how much it signed. As for the IOU of 820,000 taels she signed before, she was too lazy to ask Xu Jin for it back.

Although Qi Jingtong was very unhappy with Ori Nobumiko, she turned her face a little embarrassedly when she saw the adults hurt her so much, and she didn't see her!

After signing the letter, Miko Orishinomiko threw away her brush and said coldly: "Can the shameless corrupt official come up with any reason to ask for money?"
