Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 239 Wish us a happy cooperation
"Refined salt and chicken essence can be sold to you, but what are you going to buy?" Zhao Yi smiled meaningfully.

"I..." Jipu wanted to talk about using money, but now Jizi North Korea is not strictly a vassal state of the Great Qin, but a puppet state of the Great Qin. To be handed over to the Daqin treasury.

So to a certain extent, Ji Pu is now a poor man, and has no money to buy things from Zhao Yi.

"It seems that the queen should understand." Zhao Yi smiled lightly, and then said: "So next, let's talk about a business."

Ji Pu's heart skipped a beat, she knew that if she wanted to get what she wanted from the man in front of her, she would have to pay a sufficient price, otherwise she would not be enough to send herself out just by asking for alms from the man in front of her.

"Your Highness, please tell me that as long as Jipu can do it, Jipu will definitely agree..."

"The queen is right." Zhao Yi's smile became thicker, "Actually, this king has always felt that the business cooperation between Daqin and Jizi North Korea should be closer."

"For example, my refined salt, chicken essence, and fruits and vegetables from Daqin can all be exported to your Jizi North Korea."

"But you also know that Jizi North Korea is a long way from our Great Qin. Our Great Qin has a vast land and rich resources, but its population is sparse, so this king has an unfeeling request."

"It means that the queen can mobilize your people to work for my Daqin, and send your young and hardworking women to Daqin to work for our workshop. My Daqin will naturally pay a generous reward accordingly. What does the queen think?"

In Zhao Yi's opinion, the slave trade was too bloody, it would not be nice to talk about it, and it would be harmful to the reputation of Da Qin.

Simply act as a commercial cooperation, borrow the means of bartering in ancient times, and use Daqin's refined salt, food and surplus civilian supplies to exchange Jizi North Korea's labor.

Most of the young and strong in Jizi North Korea are taken into Daqin to work, but there are still many women in the country.

These women are actually on par with men in terms of physical fitness, and they are also hardworking and hardworking. At the price of refined salt and food, or with a small financial expenditure, they can get labor comparable to that of men. This is Zhao Yi's goal.

Under Zhao Yi's whitewashing, he is doing good things for Jizi North Korea, so that Jizi North Korea can have food and fruit to eat, and can also make money for women who are idle at home. It is completely a savior.

Ji Pu calculated, calculated, how could she calculate Zhao Yi, and after thinking about it, she finally felt that this was a great thing for mutual benefit and reciprocity.

But vaguely, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put it in words.

As a result, Ji Pu choked himself because of one inattentive, Zhao Yi and Ying Liman worked hard for a long time, and finally gave her a go, so Ji Pu was ashamed and agreed to Zhao Yi.

"His Royal Highness, I am willing to cooperate with you. I hope that you will do what you say and promise what you just promised."

In fact, in Ji Pu's own opinion, Zhao Yi's conditions were simply considering Ji Zi North Korea, and even she wanted to stay in Xianyang City to work for Zhao Yi.

So she is now sure that the citizens of Jizi North Korea will be willing to come to Daqin to work without any force.

"Very well, then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Zhao Yi's eyes suddenly became brighter, and he smiled heartlessly.

In the prime minister's mansion, Feng Quji looked puzzled and asked Li Si next to him, "Master Zuo, how many batches of money has Heibingtai shipped to the treasury recently? Where did the money come from?"

"I don't know, it's already the fifth batch, and the total hasn't been calculated yet. I really don't know what this is about!" Li Si also looked puzzled at this moment.

Just when the two prime ministers couldn't figure it out, Feng Jie came forward with an angry face, "You two prime ministers don't need to guess, it was Zhang Han who obtained His Majesty's will to engage in private slave trading in Xianyang City, and that's how the money came from. "

"Slave trading? Where did the slaves come from?" Feng Quji and Li Si were even more surprised.

Afterwards, Feng Jie told the two Prime Ministers of Great Qin exactly what he knew.

"So that's the case. No wonder His Majesty insists on capturing Donghu and Jizi North Korea. It turns out that there is such a purpose!"

"It's fake to expand the territory, but it's real to engage in the slave trade. It seems that His Majesty has this plan from the beginning!"

"Do you still remember that His Majesty said that as long as Donghu is defeated, the treasury will have a large amount of money in the treasury? It turns out that everything is waiting here!"

After listening to Feng Jie's introduction, Feng Quji and Li Si nodded again and again. At this moment in their hearts, they still admire Yingzheng's strategizing very much.

It has nothing to do with benevolence, righteousness and morality, but they all agree on the point of view of national interests.

But Feng Jie was a little angry, because he always thought that after he became the prince's father-in-law, the emperor should express something to him, but now that there is such a good thing, the emperor actually let Hei Bingtai intervene, but did not find him.

"Alas..." Feng Jie felt helpless, but after a second thought, he looked at Feng Quji and Li Si and suddenly had an idea.

"I'm afraid the two prime ministers don't know. The tens of thousands of stunning slaves that His Majesty brought back from Donghu and Jizi North Korea made a lot of money in Xianyang. Preliminary estimates, at least not less than 100 billion!"

"What? 100 billion?" Li Si and Feng Quji almost couldn't breathe.

The annual tax of the Daqin treasury is at most one billion yuan, and the slave trade of Donghu and Jizi North Korea can directly earn 100 billion yuan, which is equivalent to the tax of Daqin for ten years. This is too scary up.

The most terrifying thing is that, except for a small part of the money, it went into the treasury, and most of it went into the emperor's own pocket!
Thinking of this, Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other, and their eyes suddenly became fierce.

"From this point of view, His Majesty's internal treasury this time is probably filled with at least 80 billion yuan. Why does he need so much money?"

"That's right, so much money is rusted in the inner treasury, it's better to give it to the national treasury, the treasury is still very empty now!"

The emperor's inner treasury is equivalent to the emperor's personal wallet, and the imperial court cannot use the money in the inner treasury at will unless the emperor is willing.

So when Feng Quji and Li Si knew that the emperor was so rich now, they certainly hoped that Ying Zheng could put this money into the internal treasury.

Daqin has been fighting for so many years, has been poor for so many years, and finally has so much money, how can he not be excited!
But at this moment, Feng Jie waved his hands at the two Prime Ministers of Qin, "Left Prime Minister, Right Prime Minister, you are too happy, do you think that with His Majesty's personality, he will suddenly become generous? "
