Chapter 197 How about acting in a play together?

Listening to Xiao Han's words, Wang Yuemin's eyes suddenly widened.

She originally thought that Xiao Han and Zhu Biao would be furious after hearing such words and were about to kill her.

However, what she heard just now was that Xiao Han actually said that he couldn't bear the people of Dayuan to freeze to death.

It turns out that this sinister British man is really a good person. I had wrongly blamed him before.

For a moment, Wang Yuemin felt extremely moved in her heart. Maybe everything in the past was really for everyone. In essence, this person was still a compassionate person.

"I can go and persuade Dayuan."

"As long as Daming can lower the price of Hanyi, it is appropriate to pay some price."

Wang Yuemin raised his wine glass and said to Xiao Han.

"Miss Wang, I'm afraid this ordinary price is not enough."

"after all…"

Xiao Han raised his wine glass and touched it gently with Wang Yuemin.

"I know that this matter is related to the prestige of Ming Dynasty."

"Dayuan's side should make principled concessions."

"I will go and persuade Dayuan to lift the restrictions on cattle, sheep and horses."

Wang Yuemin said.

"In my opinion, no..."

Seeing that Wang Yuemin was preparing to use cattle, sheep, and horses instead of Meng Yuan-style weapons, Zhu Biao was about to speak, but he was interrupted by Xiao Han's eyes before he was halfway through his words.

"Can't you?"

Wang Yuemin lowered his head, his eyes a little dark.

"Don't listen to him."

"I think it's okay, you have to be merciful, and be merciful."

"Although Ming Yuan is an enemy, the people are innocent."

"If the Meng Yuan side feels that the restrictions on cattle, sheep and horses are too difficult, it would be fine to allow transactions like salt and iron instead. What I, the Ming Dynasty, want is an attitude."

Xiao Han said to Wang Yuemin.

"Brother Fengxue..."

"Thank you...Thank you so much."

"Come on, brother, I respect you!"

Wang Yuemin's voice was choked, and she looked at Xiao Han with tears in her eyes.

"Well, you're welcome."

Xiao Han raised his glass, feeling inexplicably guilty about deceiving the little girl's feelings.

Forget it, what we said is all the truth, not a single lie.

"Brother, eldest brother, since I am the host today, let's go together."

Zhu Fang looked at Wang Yuemin who was moved, Xiao Han who had a calm expression, and Zhu Biao who had a strange impatience in the late Ming Dynasty and was a little confused, and spoke with a feeling that he couldn't explain.

"it is good!"

"I have accomplished a big thing today, let's do it!"

Xiao Han said.

"Do it, do it."

Zhu Biao said impatiently.

Zhu Biao was indeed confused, but Zhu Feng and Wang Yuemin were here, so they couldn't ask.

However, he was used to it. Sometimes, he really didn't understand Xiao Han's behavior.

It was obvious that the purpose could be hinted directly, but Xiao Han kept talking and refused to mention Meng Yuan's equipment.

If it weren't for Xiao Han, Zhu Biao would have taken him out and asked him.

This meal of wine gradually came to an end as four people with different moods drank and drank.

and Lin.

"Lift the ban on cattle and sheep?"

Wang Baobao couldn't help but frown when he read Wang Yuemin's reply.

Naturally, he does not want to lift the restriction on cattle and sheep. After all, cattle and sheep are the foundation of the grassland. Even if he does not import winter clothes from the Ming Dynasty at all, Wang Baobao does not want to lift the restriction on the sale of cattle and sheep.

"Ok?"

"What do you mean?"

"Try to achieve it as much as possible?"

"Can we talk about this?"

"Zhu Ming actually wants to maintain large-scale transactions, but he just can't save face?"

"Use salt and iron?"

Wang Baobao narrowed his eyes.

"Send the order, this king will enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit."

After a moment of silence, Wang Baobao suddenly spoke.

"Aiqing suddenly saw me. Could it be that there is progress in the mutual trade with Zhu Ming?"

Emperor Xuanguang looked at Wang Baobao who suddenly arrived and asked.

"Ah."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I used Yue Min to find out about Zhu Ming's attitude."

"After my analysis, Zhu Ming actually wants to maintain the scale of the transaction, but he can't save face and needs us to make a principled concession."

Wang Baobao said to Emperor Xuanguang.

"Concession in principle?"

“Do we lift the ban on the sale of cattle, sheep and horses?”

Emperor Xuanguang asked with a frown.

"Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate."

"Cows, sheep and horses are the basis of my survival in the Great Yuan, and they cannot be eliminated."

Wang Baobao said to Emperor Xuanguang.

"Then..."

"Allow trading of strategic materials such as salt and iron?"

Emperor Xuanguang asked again.

"No."

"My Dayuan's ability to make salt and cast iron is not as good as Zhu Ming's. If we are allowed to sell it again, it will shake the foundation."

Wang Baobao shook his head again.

"Then, dear, tell me, what else can I, Dayuan, give me?"

Emperor Xuanguang looked impatient.

"Your Majesty, think about it again, is there anything that we can keep that has no use, and that won't improve anything if we give it to Zhu Ming, but it is indeed a principled transaction?"

Wang Baobao smiled slightly and enlightened Emperor Xuanguang.

"Could it be..."

"Are we allowed to sell my Dayuan's weapons to Zhu Ming?"

Emperor Xuanguang's eyes flashed.

"Your Majesty is a great talent. I have thought about this move for a long time before I came up with it. Your Majesty came up with it in just a few words. I am not as good as me."

"Those old weapons and armors, I, Dayuan, don't have to defend such a large land now, so I can't use them."

"And Zhu Ming's own ability to produce weapons and equipment is not bad. For them, it is better to recast them than to make new ones directly from iron."

"It does nothing to enhance combat effectiveness."

"More importantly, this is a principled transaction within a principled transaction. Even if Zhu Biao and Xiao Han are dissatisfied, they can't say anything."

Wang Baobao said.

"Hahahaha!" "Ai Qing is indeed the backbone of our Great Yuan. This move is wonderful and has solved the crisis of our Great Yuan."

Emperor Xuanguang laughed and exchanged business blows with Wang Baobao.

Ming dynasty.

British government.

"Fengxue, what exactly are you thinking? Can Wang Baobao and the others think of you like this?"

After leaving Prince Qin's Mansion, Zhu Biao couldn't wait to ask Xiao Han questions.

"can."

Xiao Han nodded slightly.

"How can I see it?"

Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.

"hehe."

"It is impossible for Wang Baobao to agree to the cattle, sheep and horses."

"Salt and iron, Wang Baobao can't bear to part with him."

"At this time, there is a pile of excess equipment piled up in the warehouse."

"And we don't have as much territory to defend as before. You said at this time, if it were you, choosing a principled transaction to make changes, what would you choose?"

Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao.

"Forehead…"

"That seems to be the case."

Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Just keep it in your heart. If you don't get out tomorrow, Wang Baobao will send you your credentials, hoping to lift the arms embargo."

Xiao Han chuckled, extremely confident.

"Then if Wang Baobao does this, how will we respond?"

"Agree directly?"

Zhu Biao asked.

"promise?"

"Of course I can't agree."

"If we agree, shouldn't we tell Wang Baobao directly that this is what we want?"

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth curled up.

"Then we refuse?"

Zhu Biao asked.

"You can't refuse even if you refuse. Let's have a fight when Wang Baobao's credentials come over."

Xiao Han smiled.

"what?"

"Let's fight. Do you want to challenge me?"

Zhu Biao asked in surprise.

"piss off!"

"If you want to beat me to death, you can just issue a decree to execute me."

Xiao Han rolled his eyes.

"If I ask you to fight, will you really fight with me?"

"Wouldn't you like to have a big fight?"

"Just object and think Wang Baobao has gone too far."

"I would like to advise you, let's put on a play."

"In the end, you didn't tell me anything, and you forced yourself to suffer the loss of being dumb."

"In this way, it may be useless to make Wang Baobao feel that he owes us a favor, but when we encounter unimportant things, we can be tougher."

Xiao Han said lightly.

"Oh."

"Don't I understand when you say that?"

"I was shocked. I thought you wanted to challenge me."

Zhu Biao chuckled.

"Fuck off!"

"I still want to live a few more years to create some value for our Ming Dynasty."

"You're as strong as an ox, and I'm going to fight you?"

Xiao Han snorted.

"By the way, Shan Anren has set off now. I think he should be able to get there tomorrow and break ground to start construction."

"Do we need to make any preparations here?"

Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.

"Prepare."

"Leading there, are there any iron ore mines with good output in Daming?"

Xiao Han asked Zhu Biao.

"Most of the iron ore mines in Daming are relatively scattered. If they are supplied, the iron ore mines in Shuzhong should be enough."

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said.

"In this case, we should immediately order the nearby Shuzhong Iron Mine to start construction immediately and import enough iron ore to our Daming Hydraulic Blast Furnace Ironmaking Plant."

Xiao Han replied.

"this…"

"I'm afraid it won't be easy."

"You also know that Shuzhong belonged to the Mingxia regime before. Their management was relatively chaotic. All kinds of minerals belong to various families and are their private property."

"Otherwise, we will expropriate the iron ore directly in the name of the Ming Dynasty government."

Zhu Biao rubbed his hands with some excitement.

Xiao Han:…

"Forget it, there's no need. We are also civilized people who have conquered the world now. What's the point of trying to rob us by force?"

"We are not fighting... um... the special period just after the founding of the country."

"Moreover, if we just grab it, what will we do when we build other iron plants in the future?"

"Go on and grab it?"

Xiao Han couldn't help but paused mid-sentence.

"What's this?"

"Under the whole world, is it not the king's land, and the coast of the land is not the king's ministers."

"The world belongs to our Ming Dynasty and our Zhu family, so what happened to his iron mines?"

Zhu Biao snorted.

"Forget it, it's not good after all."

"After all, you know the Huaixi nobles under our command."

"Our royal family has robbed us. If others follow our example, it will be a problem after all. So our Zhu family must make a good start and let them know that our Ming Dynasty has laws."

"Wantfully embezzling people's property is not allowed in Ming Dynasty."

"Although they are powerful people from aristocratic families, in any case, powerful people from aristocratic families are also part of our Ming Dynasty."

Xiao Han said.
