"Then what guarantee, Mr. Ni, what guarantee can you give that you will not threaten the imperial court!"
"I'll guarantee it!" Zeng Yi patted his chest and said, "I'll guarantee it! If the imperial court releases some of its military technology, I will supervise the whole process and ensure that the technology will never be leaked again."
Hearing what Zeng Yi said, Mr. Zhongshu Ling reacted, looked at Zeng Yi and said: "So this is what Mr. Ni means. If Mr. Ni wants to make money, there are many ways, so why does it have to involve armaments? And even if it is armaments,
Mr. Ni, you don’t need skills, you can make a lot of money by reselling with Mr. Ni’s prestige!”
In fact, there are still some equipment in the imperial court that have been eliminated by the imperial army. Zeng Yi can indeed make a fortune by reselling those equipment, but what Zeng Yi wants is not a one-time deal. The losses of the war, plus some of the equipment that he resold before,
There is not much equipment that has been eliminated by the imperial army. Once the equipment is purchased, the business will be discontinued.
Only by acquiring those technologies can this business be sustainable. You must know that the major guilds are already hurriedly preparing to move. Once a guild war breaks out, it will definitely be a war that will last for a long time. Zeng Yi does not want to give up such a big business.
"Lord Zhongshu, if it was just for money, of course I wouldn't go to such a big trouble, but I'm not just for money. Ning should know that the Persian Empire has not been conquered yet. Although the general territory has been occupied by Jianghu forces,
Its core area is still in the hands of the Persians, and the Persian Empire actually did not suffer much loss."
Looking at Zhongshu Ling and frowning, Zeng Yi quickly continued: "The Persian Empire is too far away from the Central Plains. If the Central Plains army wants to directly send troops to Persia, it will cost a lot and is very uneconomical. Moreover, if we capture Persia,
Also because of the distance, it is impossible to rule directly. Once the Persians are given a chance to breathe, they will quickly regain their strength. We must take advantage of the Persians' weakness to completely annihilate Persia!"
Zhongshu Ling was not stupid, "You mean to rely on those quacks to destroy Persia?"
Zeng Yi nodded: "Yes, that's what I mean. Now only those Jianghu forces can destroy Persia, but this is not an easy task! You should know that although the members of those Jianghu forces have high martial arts skills,
But there is no heavy equipment. If you want to break through the solid city defenses of the Persians, you must have siege equipment. I want to acquire those technologies eliminated by the imperial court. In fact, the main purpose is to provide some necessary siege equipment to those Jianghu forces!
"
He kept silent and said, "The Jianghu forces are already very powerful. How can you guarantee that they will not threaten the imperial court?"
"Don't worry about this. You don't know much about those armaments. Regardless of how powerful the equipment is, they are actually consumables and have their own lifespan. They will be scrapped after a period of use. New equipment needs to be purchased. As long as the source is controlled,
There is no need to worry about anything else, and without those siege equipment, it is impossible to threaten the imperial court with the martial arts of the Jianghu people alone!"
"Not to mention that the imperial court has more advanced artillery. You have seen the future of artillery. Those siege equipment are completely defenseless when faced with artillery. As long as the imperial court vigorously develops artillery, Jianghu will never threaten the imperial court!
"
"As long as the imperial court opens up those technologies, not only will the imperial court be able to recover a large sum of money, but Jianghu forces can also use it to destroy Persia, and the imperial court will not have to waste a single soldier. This kills two birds with one stone, why not?"
Zeng Yi's mouth was dry when he said it, but Zhong Shuling just frowned and said nothing. He said everything he needed to say, and even deceived him when he needed to. Zeng Yi didn't know what to say anymore.
Zhong Shuling looked at the "Nephew Memorial Manuscript" in his hand and then looked up at Zeng Yi. After a moment of silence, he said: "What Mr. Ni said makes sense, but... Mr. Ni can really guarantee that,
Will this technology not be leaked?"
"I guarantee my integrity that it will never be leaked. You can rest assured on this. Moreover, those technologies are not leaked just because they are leaked. Just knowing the technology, without the tools made by Lungbu, is still impossible.
Make those armaments!"
"In this case, I naturally have no objections, but whether this thing can be done or not is not my own decision. All my colleagues need to agree!"
"As long as you don't object!"
"Okay, at the court meeting tomorrow, Mr. Ni will hand over the paper and I will discuss it with you all! If, if you really agree, the court will not give it to Mr. Ni for free. Mr. Ni should know this!"
"Don't worry, Lord Zhongshu, I completely understand this!"
Zeng Yi whistled and left Zhongshu Ling's residence. The main thing was that Zhongshu Ling didn't object to this matter. In fact, it was almost done, not to mention that the six ministers would give Zeng Yi a face. However, after leaving Zhongshu Ling's residence,
Zeng Yi made another trip to the Menxia Province and the Shangshu Province. The Menxia Province is a deliberation body responsible for reviewing government orders and refuting corrections and violations. Its chief is Shizhong. The Shangshu Province is an executive agency and is responsible for the implementation of important government orders. Its chief
For Shangshu Ling.
Menxia Province and Shangshu Province, together with Zhongshu Province, make up the three provinces. Counting six ministries, the imperial court is basically ruled by the three provinces and six ministries. The Minister of Menxia Province, the minister of ministers, and the Shangshu Ling of the province are also important ministers of the court, not much worse than Zhongshu Ling.
However, after the little princess came to power and ascended the throne, the minister and the provincial minister had been replaced by one of their own. These two people did not need to worry, and they would not oppose Zeng Yi for this matter.
Zeng Yi went there with some gifts. After studying with his disciples and ministers, he managed to get the two adults, Shizhong and Shangshuling. Of course, the gifts were prepared by Zeng Yi in advance. Although they were not as good as the "Manuscript of Memorials to My Nephew", they were
It is also a very good antique calligraphy and painting!
Almost all the people were taken care of by Zeng Yi, but Zeng Yi also knew very well that if this matter was brought up, he would definitely attract some opposition, especially those censors who were responsible for supervising the court and the dereliction of duties by the princes and officials. Regardless of good or bad things, they would definitely
Will jump out and object first.
Zeng Yi once thought about getting rid of the imperial censor of the Inspectorate. The censor was one of the most powerful officials in the imperial court. As long as he was dealt with, the censors would not embarrass him. But he thought about it.
Let’s take a look at the character of the imperial censor. If he came to visit, he would have to agree or not, but at the court meeting, he would definitely participate in Zeng Yiben’s bribery of court officials!
Zeng Yi simply didn't bother to go anymore. After running all day, when the sky was about to darken, Zeng Yi returned to the blacksmith shop. In the blacksmith shop, he immediately sent a flying pigeon letter to the fat man in the Silver Empire, asking them to
