Chapter 828

For a while, the news exploded. The court had already been arguing about this matter this morning. The pros and cons of trade had long been analyzed to the core, and no new tricks could be found. The key is how His Majesty Jinkou Yuyan agreed to borrow money from Anshan to regret it.

?

No one expected that the other party would not only agree to such harsh conditions, but also agree that Nanying would fund the development of Wangan Mountain and insist on building a road in Wangan Mountain.

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible. Wangan Mountain is the only place where the borders of the three countries can be opened. If a mountain plank road is built, wouldn't it be easier to fish in troubled waters?" A courtier took a step forward and said: "This is absolutely impossible.

!”

The Minister of the Ministry of Finance was slightly thoughtful: "But Nanying is willing to provide a million taels of silver, and will continue to add more in the future. If the plank road in Wangan Mountain is built, it will also be beneficial to the people of South Vietnam. I hope your Majesty will think about this matter carefully."

.”

How could the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue not know where the Yuan Emperor was struggling, how long could he survive just by relying on the charity sale last time? Since the people could not rashly increase taxes, this million taels of silver was not a small amount, and how much would be needed in the future was not something.

Yue has the final say?

The king of Nanying is a careful person. He said that he would only pay taels of silver, and Dongyue would be responsible for the manpower. The range of control in the middle was huge. It was not Dongyue who decided how much money he would need in the future. This was put to his lips.

Isn’t the fat meat fresh and beautiful?

"For the sake of silver, let go of Wangan Mountain? Once the plank road is built, wouldn't it provide roads for the enemy countries? Southern Japan will be the tiger, and the northern desert will be the leopard. Both countries are ready to attack East Vietnam!" A military general said excitedly: "If you lead the way,

How about coming to war?"

"This statement is wrong. The area near Wangan Mountain is desolate, with only a few people living there, and there are high mountains nearby. This is simply a nonsense. If Nanying is willing to spend money to transform Wangan Mountain into a place with plank roads,

, it’s not a bad thing.”

The officials of the Ministry of Rites, who have always been eloquent, couldn't help but add fuel to the fire: "Why not use other people's money to do things that are beneficial to the dynasty?"

At this time, the quarrel between you and me was getting louder, but Song Luo kept his hands and knees silent, and combined all the opinions together in his mind. He just thought that the new king of Nanying should not be underestimated.

watch for.

First, he vigorously revitalized agriculture, and then wooed Bei Mo to make a fuss about trade. I thought that His Majesty's last reply was simply to create difficulties and make things difficult, and the other party should have retreated when the difficulties were encountered. However, the other party swallowed his breath and faced the difficulties.

!

The other party wanted to open up the junction of the three countries no matter what, and he did not hesitate to pay for it himself. This was not a small sum for Nanying, which had just ended the civil war, but he was still willing to give it up. It was really reluctant to give up the child without trapping the wolf.

This suddenly poked a hornet's nest in the Dongyue court. Look at the current situation. They are all officials of the imperial court, but they have turned the Zichen Hall into a vegetable market. Song Luo sighed softly. Fortunately, it was noisy at this time.

People hear it.

Emperor Yuan rested on the dragon chair with one hand and held his head with the other. His head was dizzy from the noise. No one at the Metropolitan Procuratorate said a word today, which was a bit uncharacteristic. When he was about to speak, a calm voice sounded: "Your Majesty,

I have an idea."

This voice was not loud, but it carried an inexplicable firmness. Compared with the officials who spoke before, it was neither humble nor arrogant.

Emperor Yuan raised his head and saw that the expression on the official's back softened slightly. The Minister of Household Affairs glanced at him, his pupils trembled, and his heart was full of displeasure. Why is it him again!

The person who was listed was none other than Huang Tang, who played an important role in the last meeting between the two countries. He has now gone to the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is now also a good person there. His temperament is somewhat incompatible elsewhere, but the Duocensorate

The hospital just needs someone like him.

Huang Tang felt countless eyes falling on him, but he didn't take it seriously. There seemed to be only Emperor Yuan in his eyes. Emperor Yuan felt a little relieved. He had an impression of this person. He had previously used the strategy of cutting off food to foil the Southern Ying conspiracy, which was a great achievement.

"If you have anything to say, please tell me."

Huang Tang said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "I dare to think that it is feasible for Your Majesty to reply by taking the road to visit Anshan. If you refuse rashly now, it will only make Nanying laugh. His Majesty's golden words will naturally not destroy himself. This is the main premise."

These words reached Emperor Yuan's heart: "Continue."

"I think there is only one point of contention - whether to agree to Nan Ying's suggestion to use their money to build mountain plank roads. According to my knowledge of Wang'an Mountain, the materials there are quite abundant, and the climate and geographical environment are very different.

There are many specialties in other places."

"However, due to insufficient transportation facilities, local specialties cannot be transported outside Wang'an Mountain at all. It is really a waste of natural resources. If roads and mountain plank roads can be built, it will be a good thing for East Vietnam."

"It's just that there are risks involved. Although the road is used to collect taxes from Nanying and Beimo, there is no guarantee that they will not do anything. Therefore, the focus is to increase the supervision of Wangan Mountain. The current garrison force is far from enough, and it needs to be strengthened.

Measure is good.”

"As long as they are strictly guarded, how can the great country of East Vietnam be afraid of two small countries?" Huang Tang rarely showed a hint of contempt: "It's impossible for them to cause trouble under the nose of our government!"

As soon as the words fell, another controversy arose. There was a constant buzz in the Zichen Palace, which disturbed Emperor Yuan. Seeing that the situation was not good, Eunuch Hong could only look at Prime Minister Song, hoping that Song Luo would stand up and take charge of the overall situation. If this continues

Your Majesty is going to be angry.

Song Luo's expression did not change, as if he was still deep in thought. General Guo stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Mr. Huang said is absolutely true. We have a strong army in East Vietnam, so why should we be afraid of their Southern Ying and Northern Desert?"

"Even if a mountain plank road is built, Wangan Mountain is like a natural chasm. It is already very difficult to build a plank road that is barely passable. It is not expected that it will be possible for the army to pass through. As Mr. Huang said, if it can be strictly guarded, more garrisons can be set up.

It’s hard for them to flip the palm of their hand!”

General Guo was not as humble or arrogant as Huang Tang when he spoke. When he opened his mouth, it was like ringing a bell, and his voice penetrated the entire Zichen Palace!

"This plan seems feasible. General Mo is leading the army to be stationed over there now. The number is not large. It would not be a bad idea if more reinforcements can be sent. I will give you a million taels of silver up front, and there will be more in the future. Isn't this a ready-made income?"

"We can also increase taxes and tariffs for subsequent trade, so why not do it? It's just hard to say why Nan Ying is so generous and whether it has evil intentions."

"Even if you have evil intentions, Wang'an Mountain is our territory, so we can strengthen the garrison. I think it is feasible."

"Your Majesty has already agreed to take advantage of the passage. How can we go back on this matter? If we go back on our words, it will really harm our face in East Vietnam. This may be the best way to send more troops. Mr. Huang's proposal is quite feasible."
