Masatori Ida, the important shogunate official sent by Hideta Tokugawa to be responsible for the negotiations, was relieved after hearing the translator reposting the words of Wei Guangwei and other Ming Dynasty officials.

Because Ida Masamune knew that with his understanding of the Tokugawa shogunate, the shogunate really cared about whether the powerful Ming Kingdom would destroy the shogunate and would not allow the shogunate to continue to rule Japan.

As for cede land, compensation, and trade, it is nothing.

Isn’t it good to measure Japan’s material resources and win the favor of China?

Especially when Ida Masamune heard that the Ming officials still called him the Kingdom of Japan in their diplomatic remarks, he became even more satisfied.

After all, the legitimacy of the Tokugawa shogunate's rule over Japan came from the Emperor.

Therefore, Masamune Ida was most worried that the Akira Congress asked his shogunate to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, which undoubtedly made him betray the Emperor and re-enter the foreign emperor as his master.

And Tokugawa Hidetachi himself is actually worried about this the most.

Because based on their understanding of the Ming Kingdom, after conquering a country, the Ming Kingdom asked that the country pay tribute to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom to pay tribute and pay tribute to him.

What's more, they themselves have this conquest model. After conquering other countries, they asked the country to pay tribute to their own Japanese countries.

Therefore, Japanese rulers such as Masamune Ida and Hidetachi Tokugawa were worried that the Ming Dynasty would do so and would regard the failure to pay tribute as the bottom line of their negotiations.

After all, these Japanese are different from those of the Koreans and do not have the will to be Chinese younger brothers.

They also have their own ambition to be a strong country in the world.

You know, their intention to annex the Ming Dynasty has just passed for decades.

Therefore, Japan is naturally unwilling to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, more importantly, once the shogunate pays tribute and surrenders, it means that their ruling foundation will be lost. After all, the shogunate is nominally the emperor's subject.

However, the Ming Dynasty has begun to capitalize the empire and cares more about actual interests rather than superficial surrender. Therefore, the Ming Emperor did not want to ask the Japanese to pay tribute and submit, and was willing to recognize the fact that the Tokugawa shogunate ruled in Japan.

Therefore, Masato Ida smiled and said, "Please rest assured. I will do my best to help you achieve your wishes to avoid the two countries' resurgence!"

After listening to the translation and retelling, Wei Guangwei also looked at Shen Yourong in surprise, because he did not expect that the important officials of the Japanese shogunate would say this, and even said that they would take the initiative to help them achieve their wish without any slightest resistance.

This made Wei Guangwei, who was ready to fight, politely and bowed: "Thank you! In addition, my emperor suggested that the formal negotiation be negotiated on our Ming Dynasty's "Zhongshan King" warship. Please also inform the general whether he agrees to this. If he does not agree, we will regard your country as having no sincerity in negotiating."

Zhu Youxiao suggested that the negotiation location be chosen on the Ming Dynasty ship, which naturally means to promote force.

Otherwise, Zhu Youxiao would not have asked the navy to drive the first-class sailing battleship "Zhongshan King".

The King of Zhongshan refers to Xu Da.

Xu Da's name is naturally qualified to be the code name of the largest warship of the Ming Dynasty.

After listening to the translation, Masamune Ida only smiled slightly and said, "I will definitely convey it below!"

Although he felt not very adaptable to the threat in Wei Guangwei's words and was even a little angry, he still chose to hold back. After all, he is not very opposed to this negotiation now. He also hopes that through this negotiation, the Ming Dynasty could let him let the shogunate let him go without paying tribute.

Tokugawa Hidetachi said the same thing. After listening to the report of Ida Masamune, he said: "Since they asked to negotiate on their warships, then go to their warships and pay compensation. As long as there is not much, it is nothing. Anyway, try to negotiate less compensation. They have not paid back the last time with seven million stone grain! Although the shogunate treasury still has a lot of savings, the money and grain are not for nothing, so naturally they cannot be taken away by Mingguo! If you ced the land, as long as it is not Edo or the area where Edo can be connected by land, you can also cut it. Try not to cut too much. If you trade, you will not trade. For the prison of overseas Chinese businessmen, our shogunate must be dominated by our shogunate. Otherwise, if there is a wealthy businessman in Mingguo colluding with the coastal daimyo, it would not be a good thing! As for apologizing, the shogunate can issue an edict to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to Apologize to

After hearing this, Masamune Ida nodded: "Yes!"

...

So, not long after, Masato Ida came to Wei Guangwei's stay again and conveyed the suggestion that Hidetachi Tokugawa agreed to formal negotiations on the Ming warship "Zhongshan King", and agreed to start at the next day and the third hour.

And so, on this day, Wei Guangwei, Shen Yourong and other Ming officials, as well as Li Gui and other North Korean officials who came to Edo with the Ming Navy, came to the docking place of the "Zhongshan King" to greet them.

After Ida Masamun and other shogunate officials came here, they were really shocked by the towering Ming warships.

For a time, Masamune Ida didn't know how to evaluate it, but he knew that the Ming Kingdom, which could build such a ship and so many large ships, undoubtedly had extraordinary national strength.

Masato Ida had to be more humble in front of Wei Guangwei and bowed and said, "Please lead the way!"

"please!"

Wei Guangwei replied, and together with Shen Yourong and others, he brought shogunate officials such as Ida Masamune to the artillery cabin.

When Masamune Ida saw the scene of more than 70 cannon cannon cannons in the artillery cabin of the first-class sail battleship of the Ming Dynasty, his legs were weak. He dared not to stop thinking about how they would resist if such a cannon fired directly at Edo Castle.

Masamune Ida had to worry more about whether his Japanese would be destroyed by the Ming Dynasty. He now wanted to help Ming Dynasty build such a large ship and cannon during negotiations.

Masamune Ida naturally understood that the Ming army could build such warships and cannons, which must have more advanced shipbuilding and cannon casting techniques.

The Japanese have always been very active in learning from the strong.

Therefore, Masamune Ida has already begun to have the idea that Japan also needs such giant ships and cannons.

"Cece the Nagasaki vassal land to me as the place of my Ming garrison and cargo transportation, as well as the place of my Ming commerce and overseas Chinese residence;"

"After statistics from the Japanese dynasty in Shimiao and the Japanese dynasty in Wanli dynasty, our Ming Dynasty's Bureau of Measuring and Measurement, the total loss of military and civilians caused to our Ming Dynasty was 20 million silver coins. In addition, your country's atrocities in Nagasaki caused the losses of our Ming Dynasty, as well as the losses of our Ming Dynasty, as well as the losses of our official goods and military expenditures, are about 10 million silver coins. Therefore, your country needs to compensate us for our Ming Dynasty's 30 million silver coins. In addition, your country has caused heavy losses to our Ming Dynasty's vassal state, North Korea. According to the Bureau of Measuring, the loss should be worth more than 5 million silver coins."

As Wei Guangwei said, he turned around and asked Li Gui, a North Korean official invited to attend the negotiation meeting: "Does Li Tongzhi have any objections to this?"

Li Gui said with a little confused "ah". Since he led the Korean navy to Edo with the Ming Navy, he has been very honest. Basically, he will do whatever the Ming officials asked him to do. So, when Wei Guangwei said that the Ming Emperor asked him, a North Korean official, to participate in the negotiations together, he came to the negotiating table, but he did not expect that the Ming Dynasty in the Celestial Empire would also ask for compensation for him.

"Can a despise country claim compensation?"

Li Gui couldn't help asking.

"Of course! My Emperor of Ming Dynasty has an edict saying that your Kingdom of Korea is also a victorious party, so you can naturally claim compensation!"

Wei Guangwei replied.
