"Haha, it only costs thirty taels to buy a beautiful yellow-flowered girl from a brothel.
Nowadays, in times of famine and war, one can buy a beautiful little slave for twenty taels.
There are only more than 3,000 of you, and among them there are about 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people. These are just a waste of money and no one will buy them.
If you buy it, you have to provide them with food, clothing and housing.
After getting rid of these 1,000 people, there are only 2,000 people left. On average, each person sells himself for 1,500 taels.
With this money, I can buy tens of thousands of slaves. Shouldn't you two find someone else?
I don't have the ability to buy them." Tang Wen shook his head and smiled.
These two guys are basically taking themselves as the main victims.
"But they still deserve thousands of hectares of land? The land doesn't cost money." Wan Hansong said.
"That's it..." Tang Wen responded, pretending to hesitate.
"Well, that piece of land is worth more than one million taels.
In fact, you only paid more than one million taels.
But what you buy is a group of well-educated and knowledgeable people, not idiots who cannot read a word." Wan Hansong said.
"I can't afford three million taels." Tang Wen shook his head.
"We owe you one million. To get rid of us, you only need to pay two million taels." Xiao Senguo said.
"I can't even get two million." Tang Wen shook his head.
"In addition to your military exploits! After all, you are the earl. I, Xiao Senguo, recommend you to become the deputy training envoy of the Linghai Regiment." Xiao Senguo said.
"Sir, the deputy training envoy of the Linghai regiment is of the fourth rank." Wan Hansong said.
"Master Tang is a man of great benevolence and righteousness. He is dedicated to serving the court, so he is worthy of being the deputy envoy of regiment training." Xiao Senguo said.
"But these two million taels..." Tang Wen said.
"Congratulations, Sir, I think it's okay." Jiang Xuan said with a smile.
"Sir, if it hadn't been for the invasion of the Kingdom of the Sun, you would have received several million taels even if you donated a provincial regimental training deputy envoy.
This is considered an extra gift. You have to understand how the deputy envoy of Jiangzhou Prefecture can be compared with the deputy envoy of Linghai.
Don't talk about anything else, just for recruiting soldiers, you have the power to recruit tens of thousands of soldiers.
In addition, with the status of deputy league envoy, from now on, our provincial government offices will be open to you, and you can come in at any time.
Because you are also an important official of this province, right? You are comparable to the prefect below." Wan Hansong said.
"There is a greater benefit, you are the Earl.
Once the title and official position are equipped, you will be a real earl.
I just want to say something that doesn't sit well with me. You are the deputy envoy of the Provincial Youth League.
"Walking around the provincial capital with your bodyguards, who dares to stroke your beard?" Xiao Senguo said.
"That's right, if I have the opportunity in the future, I can also hold a real job.
At that time, once you change, you will be the prefect of a prefecture or the prefect of a county.
Coupled with your status as an earl, haha, I have to congratulate Mr. Tang first." Wan Hansong said with a smile.
"Brother, this is an opportunity." Jiang Xuan said.
"Otherwise, if we really can't get out your one million taels, we can write you an IOU and keep it on credit first.
Looking at this situation, whether it can be restored in a few decades is a question.
Otherwise, you can sue me Wan Hansong, it's all for the sake of the court, and I will have no regrets even if I am removed from my head." Wan Hansong said.
"This matter is too big. The amount of money required is too huge. I have to think about it carefully." Tang Wendao decided to delay it to see if he could squeeze some more benefits out of it.
Because Tang Wen had already seen from the popularity of the two of them, Xiao Senguo and Wan Hansong were driven crazy, so they were not worried about other buyers.
After all, when the war is in chaos, it is safest to have money in your arms. Gutan
"By the way, you two adults, I invited Lord Xiaogai and the others to have dinner with me tonight. The place will be at my Mei residence. You two adults can come and sit down if you have time. Of course, Mr. Jiang has to come."
"I came even if you didn't ask me." Jiang Xuan said with a smile, "Two adults, the Duke's house has many good things that we don't usually eat, I guarantee your satisfaction."
"We wanted to go, but unfortunately, you see, there has been a lot of trouble recently in the Kingdom of the Sun.
You, Mr. Jiang, are better off. The Governor's Office of Haisheng City will handle everything for you.
If we can't do it, we have to do it ourselves.
The provisions, horses, warships, etc. are all in a state of exhaustion." Xiao Senguo declined politely.
"That's true, I haven't had a good sleep in a day, and my head is heavy. However, thank you Sir for your kindness. I will definitely come when I have time in the future." Wan Hansong rubbed his forehead and said.
"My lord, go back and think about it carefully, but you have to hurry up. After all, many gentry have heard about the incident in Qingniu Town, and some of them are quite interested," Xiao Senguo said.
"Yes, it's a rare opportunity. Of course, their conditions are not as good as yours, sir. If they want to take the position of deputy training envoy of Linghai Regiment, they will have to spend at least two million taels more." Wan Hansong said.
"Do you think you are sure?" Xiao Senguo asked Wan Hansongdao after Tang Wen left.
"It's hard to say..." Wan Hansong shook his head and said, "Don't look at this man's tenderness, he seems to be a wealthy man."
"It stands to reason that he is a down-and-out noble, and he is not very old. How big is his palace? I guess all this is due to the guidance of an expert behind him." Xiao Senguo said.
"Of course, don't talk about anything else. Look at the personal guard standing next to him. He is not weak." Wan Hansong nodded.
"If he is not weak, how powerful can he, a country earl, be able to hire to protect the hospital?" Xiao Senguo was astonished.
"Sir, you know Chen Gao's strength." Wan Hansong said.
"Could it be that the two of them had a fight?" Xiao Senguo asked.
"Well, Chen Gao can't beat the opponent with a punch." Wan Hansong responded.
"Then it must be at least third grade." Xiao Senguo was also shocked.
"That's for sure. I didn't expect this person to be able to hire a strong person of the third level to protect him. It's surprising." Wan Hansong said.
"If he doesn't fall into the trap, our second step plan will not be easy to implement.
Therefore, we must let him get in.
This time we also spent a lot of money, almost half buying and half getting free." Xiao Senguo said.
"You see Jiang Xuan is so good to him, it shows that this person has means." Wan Hansong said.
"It's nothing more than money. Tang Wen gave Jiang Xuan a lot of benefits, right?" Xiao Senguo snorted.
"Of course, it's a donation of several hundred thousand taels, and a tent and a sword. Jiang Xuan got the benefits, but Tang Wen couldn't gain much military exploits," Wan Hansong said.
"Qin Botong also talked about this person with me some time ago, and he seemed to admire him quite a bit." Xiao Senguo said.
"I guess like Jiang Xuan, he won't be able to get a lot of donations, so of course I have to say good things for him. Besides, that's not how the deputy envoy of Jiangzhou League Training came to be." Wan Hansong said.
"When the war is over, I would like to go to Koh Samui to see what is so admirable about him?" Xiao Senguo said with a smile.
"It's a deserted island. It's just that the Tang family is afraid of pirates and hires more people. However, at least it means that he has a lot of money." Wan Hansong said.
"We have to take out his money, otherwise we will both have big heads," Xiao Senguo said.
"No matter how he jumps, he can't survive this time. If we don't look for him, the General Military Office will have to look for him.
Therefore, we must hurry up before the General Military Yamen. Otherwise, all the credit will be taken away by Qiu Zhaohai.
What's even more difficult to deal with is that if the General Military Office takes the lead, our Qingniu Town won't be able to be sold," Wan Hansong said.
"Well, we can't let Qiu Zhaohai rob someone of this matter." Xiao Senguo nodded.
"This person is also very individual, and he actually went to provoke Linghai Academy." Wan Hansong said.
"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers." Xiao Senguo sighed.
"We can take the lead and he becomes the deputy training envoy of the Linghai Regiment. When the time comes, the general military office will recruit him, so we have to ask Mr. Xiao if he is right?" Wan Hansong said.
"We must take it down, we must hurry up, keep an eye on it, preferably within a day or two, to avoid long nights and dreams. If it doesn't work, you can take a step back. Or, give him some benefits." Xiao Senguo hummed.
