This is undoubtedly a huge sum of money. It can be said that among the seven countries today, Qi is probably the only country that can spend so much cash at once.
But even if Qi State were to spend 300,000 yuan at once, it would probably wipe out all the money in the treasury.
"Is three hundred thousand... too much?"
Gu Xun doesn't care whether Qi Congress's capital chain will be broken, but he feels that the other party may not be willing to spend so much money.
"Oh, as long as Mr.'s method can double the production while ensuring the original quality of salt production, then three hundred thousand... is not much at all, it should be said that it is very little." Ying Zheng shook his head and responded, "If there are no restrictions
In cash, you can ask for at least 500,000 gold."
"The increase in production will definitely more than double, and the quality of salt will be greatly improved."
"In this case, we can actually ask for more, but cash... 300,000 gold is almost the limit." Ying Zheng said with a little pity.
For a country, money and food are indispensable. Of course, Yingzheng is good at both, but food is more important than money. However, Gu Xun insists on only asking for money, and will undoubtedly lose a lot of easily accessible benefits.<
/p>
"Hey, it would be nice to have 300,000 yuan." At this time, Gu Xun changed his usual greed for money and accepted it as soon as possible.
Three hundred thousand, plus what he has on hand, is basically enough for him to replace a full set of Seven Swords.
Nowadays, he has no martial arts skills that he urgently needs to upgrade. Most of them are based on interests, such as astrology. When he gets rich, he will definitely want to make money, but there is no rush.
Hmm... When I have time, I will contact Chen He and ask him to get in touch with Qi Wang Jian to do this deal.
"Hey~~~" Gai Nie let out a long cry, trying to stop the horses.
After a slight jolt, Gu Xun and the others in the carriage felt that the carriage had completely stopped.
Something must have happened.
Li Si looked out from the window:
A small group of soldiers wearing full armor and carrying bows and swords stopped the carriage.
He turned his head and whispered to Ying Zheng:
"Master Shang, he should be a patrol scout of the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army."
"How far is it from Wu Sui?" Gu Xun interjected and asked.
"At least fifty miles away." Li Si replied immediately.
Fifty miles, far exceeding the normal range of thirty miles that he had previously estimated.
"Who are you?" The soldiers outside began to question Genie who was driving.
Ying Zheng winked and signaled Li Si to go down and deal with it.
He is a serious envoy, the kind with a scepter. Even Wang Yan has to be polite to him.
Li Si didn't waste any time, and immediately picked up the envoy's staff that was placed aside, opened the door curtain to a small corner where it was difficult to see what was going on inside, and squeezed out.
Gu Xun rubbed his chin and thought for a while, and decided not to go out and join in the fun, just a few pawns.
After Li Si got out of the car, the leader of the group of soldiers—probably a squad leader or something—immediately recognized the scepter.
"Are you the envoy, Mr. Li Si?"
"Exactly." Li Si held the staff and replied frankly, "Who are you?"
"We are the scout team of the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army under General Wang Yan. We are ordered to patrol and warn." The team leader quickly clasped his hands and saluted.
Li Si turned around and walked slowly to the car window and whispered inside:
"It is indeed a soldier of Pingyang Heavy Armor, Mr. Shang, do you think you want to..."
"Just say so." Ying Zheng ordered.
"Yes." Li Si nodded and returned to the team leader.
The other party also saw Li Si's behavior just now. As an envoy holding a scepter, there are few people in the world who can treat him with such respect.
"May I ask Mr. Li Si, who else is in the carriage?" the team leader asked again with some trepidation.
Li Si didn't say much, and directly took out the seal of King Qin that Ying Zheng had given him for safekeeping.
"I've seen the king!" The team leader must have seen the world. He recognized the king's seal, and coupled with the guess in his heart, he immediately knelt down and shouted.
The scouts behind him didn't know why, but since the leader knelt down, they naturally knelt down and shouted too.
Li Si waved his hand, "Don't make any noise."
Everyone shut up immediately.
It can be regarded as a kind of prohibition and a manifestation of excellent military discipline.
"The king's identity must not be leaked. You must be addressed as 'Shang Gongzi'." Li Si then ordered.
"Yes!"
After Li Si asked a few casual questions, he asked them to lead the way to the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army camp and got back on the carriage.
"Master Shang, according to what they said, the army camp is fifty miles away from here. The reason why they patrolled so far is because of the order of the commander Wang Yan." After Li Si came up, he immediately reported.
Judging from this answer, there may be something wrong with Wang Ye himself, otherwise he would have no reason to let people run so far - all the Korean troops huddled in the city wall without even risking their heads. The scouts had no other purpose than to exercise by running so far.
Any use.
"Whether there is a problem or not, we will know after we agree." Ying Zheng responded quietly with his eyes lowered, and then he closed his eyes to rest.
When Li Si saw this, he stopped talking.
Regardless of whether there are any problems with the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army, or what problems there are, we must leave this camp, and we cannot hide.
………………
With a group of infantry leading the way, the carriage could not run any faster. After walking for nearly two hours, the originally bright yellow sun began to set in the west, giving off an orange-red afterglow, and finally we arrived at the main camp.<
/p>
There is nothing much to say about this camp. It is just a temporary station built of wood, with a few watchtowers several feet high standing here and there. Groups of soldiers patrol the wooden walls.
I don’t know what the scout who led the way said, but the gatekeepers didn’t check the carriage of Ying Zheng and others and just let it pass.
After entering, the place is very empty. There is a large open space in front of you. There are faint traces of messy dust, probably caused by soldiers' drills. Looking inside, you can see a large continuous gray-white camp, staggered according to certain rules.
Place it on the ground.
There are still some soldiers practicing in the open space, waving the halberds in their hands in one move and another, accompanied by angry shouts. At first glance, they are very imposing, and they are definitely not ordinary soldiers.
"To put down a thousand armies, one with heavy armor, Pingyang's heavy armor army is indeed one of the most elite troops in our Great Qin Dynasty, and the killing spirit is clearly visible." Ying Zheng put down his hand that lifted up the curtains of the carriage, withdrew his gaze, and spoke with admiration.
said.
"It is said that General Wang Yan was very strict in managing the army. He led his Pingyang Heavy Armor Army and served as the king of the Qin Dynasty for three generations. He has been on the battlefield for many years. He attacked Changping, captured Wu'an, Kepilao, and occupied Shangdang. He made great military achievements."
Gu Xun suddenly said with a bad smile:
"Why didn't you mention the Battle of Handan?"
Because of these words, Ying Zheng and Li Si turned their attention to him at the same time, and their eyes darkened.
The Battle of Handan... was Qin's biggest defeat in recent decades.
By the way, when the Battle of Handan began, Ying Zheng was not yet one year old.
