Crazy Face Slapping!
At this moment, the empress's expression was very ugly.
One must know that the national treasury had just been filled with Qin Feng's gold coins.
But now, Wu Wudi actually wanted to take away 300 million gold coins?
After giving the 300 million gold coins to Wu Wudi, most of it would definitely go into his own pocket.
Only a small portion would be allocated to the military.
In the military, his henchmen had been embezzled layer by layer. When they went to the front line, it was estimated that less than one-tenth of the allocated military expenses had been saved.
Just as the empress was thinking about this, she suddenly saw a slender figure slowly walking in from outside the hall.
The sound of footsteps reverberated in the hall. All the officials in Everlasting Palace turned to look at Qin Feng.
At this moment, Qin Feng slowly walked in front of the Water Empress and said with a smile,"Greetings, Empress."
Qin Feng's words and actions were neither servile nor overbearing. He looked to have a different temperament.
However, at this moment, Qin Feng turned his gaze to Wu Wudi.
It had to be said that Wu Wudi was more than two meters tall. He had a strong back and a stocky waist, and his face was tanned. If an ordinary person saw him, they would only think that he was a man from some farm and would not associate him with the position of a general.
At this moment, he was wearing a suit of clothes. When he stood beside Qin Feng, he was simply exuding an imposing pressure. However, Qin Feng's expression was calm when facing him. There was not the slightest hint of panic.
At this moment, Wu Wudi quickly opened his mouth and reprimanded loudly,"Who are you? Why don't you kneel in front of the empress?"
Hearing this, Qin Feng immediately smiled. He was the Duke of Qin, the same rank as a Prince.
It could be said that Wu Wudi's status was similar to his.
However, the difference between the two was that Wu Wudi held military power while he only had a title.
At this moment, the maid beside Qin Zixuan said to Wu Wudi,""Jun Lin is the new Duke of the Qin Country.”
Wu Wudi stared at Jun Lin after he heard the empress's maid, Little Qing's words.
Just as he was about to speak, Qin Feng suddenly opened his mouth and asked him,"General Wu, I heard you say outside the hall…that there are faint signs of riots in the northern Devil's Den? Is this true?"
"Of course it's true. In front of the ministers, how would I dare to deceive the sovereign?”Wu Wudi immediately said.
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng revealed a smile and asked Wu Wudi,"Then, does General Wu want the empress to allocate 300 million gold coins to the military headquarters in the Devil's Den in the north?”
"That's right." Wu Wudi nodded.
At this moment, Qin Feng continued,"General Wu, with this 300 million gold coins, can you completely prevent the Devil Den in the north from having any strange movements for the next five years?”
Hearing Qin Feng's words, the surrounding officials all looked at him as if he was a fool.
300 million gold coins and you want the Devil Den in the north to remain quiet for five years?
This was simply wishful thinking!
One had to know that the Great Qin's many years of tax revenue was basically used on the military.
The military could only barely stand guard outside the various demon nests. Every year, there would be up to ten abnormal movements in each demon nest. Basically, there would be a riot once a month.
To quell the Devil's Den for five years, 300 million gold coins was just enough for a small change.
At this moment, Wu Wudi quickly sneered and said,"Are you kidding me? 300 million gold coins to pacify the Devil Den for five years? How naive."
Hearing Wu Wudi's words, Qin Feng immediately smiled.
With Wu Wudi's words, he had basically achieved his goal.
At this moment, Qin Feng no longer paid attention to Wu Wudi. He directly said to Qin Zixuan who was in the Everlasting Palace,"Give me 300 million gold coins and the control of the Empire's northernmost fortress. I can make the Devil's Den no longer have any strange movements for five years!”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present was instantly shocked.
Even Wu Wudi and Qin Zixuan were shocked.
Qin Feng really dared to say that.
In front of the ministers, the 300 million gold coins that Wu Wudi wanted from the empress was not enough…He even wanted to take control of Thule Fortress?
This was practically riding on Wu Wudi's head and slapping his face.
At this moment, many people looked at Wu Wudi.
At this moment, Wu Wudi's expression was somewhat gloomy. However, he still stared at Qin Feng and sneered,"Since you want the Northernmost Fortress, I'll give it to you. However…what if you can't defend the Northernmost Fortress and let the demonized monsters in the Devil's Den rush out?”
"Then I'm willing to offer one billion gold coins to the general and let him send troops to suppress the demon nest in the northernmost fortress. How about that?”Qin Feng says with a smile.
Hearing this, the ministers were stunned again.
This f * cking…one billion gold coins?
Was he that arrogant?
One had to know that the richest person in the State of Qin now was Great General Wu Wudi.
He was the only one who could fork out a billion gold coins.
At this moment, Wu Wudi clearly didn't believe Qin Feng. He coldly stared at Qin Feng and asked,"Do you have one billion gold coins?"
"He does." The Water Empress, who was sitting in the Everlasting Palace, said to Wu Wudi,""The extra 1.5 billion gold coins in the national treasury this time came from Duke Jun Lin's purchase of land, so…he can totally afford a billion gold coins.”
Wu Wudi looked at the empress with a hint of coldness in his eyes.
He knew that the empress did not want to give him 300 million gold coins.
Not only that, the empress also wanted to hand over the control of the northernmost fortress to Qin Feng.
Wu Wudi pondered for a moment. Soon, he felt that it was impossible for him to lose this bet.
After all, he controlled all the troops in the northernmost fortress.
When Qin Feng took over the Northernmost Fortress, he directly pulled all the main forces out of the Northernmost Fortress, leaving some old, weak, sick, and disabled for Qin Feng.
At that time, he would like to see what Qin Feng would use to resist the endless demonic army in the Devil Den!
