"Hiss! Three hundred thousand Ferghana Horses?"
The three Grand Elders gasped.
Really? Fake?
Although they were all civil officials and did not know much about warhorses, how could they not have heard of a famous warhorse like the Ferghana Horse?
It was rumored that this kind of warhorse could travel thousands of miles in a day and eight hundred miles at night. It was definitely a good steed that could only be encountered by chance!
One or two of these warhorses were already peerless treasures.
Three hundred thousand Ferghana Horses?
Was this Ferghana Horse a cabbage? Everywhere?
Although San Yang was shocked, he was more suspicious.
However, Zhu Gaochi knew that his son almost never lied in front of him.
His eyes, which were slightly small due to his fat, were now wide open.
If it wasn't for the fact that the person in front of him was his son whom he was very familiar with, he definitely wouldn't have believed such words.
"Is what you said true? Three hundred thousand Ferghana Horses?"
Zhu Gaochi asked directly.
Zhu Zhanyong knew that his father and San Yang had probably misunderstood. He explained,"
"Ferghana Horses are Ferghana Horses, Ferghana Horses are Ferghana Horses, don't mix together. Ferghana Horses are horse kings that are one in ten thousand. This kind of warhorse can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles at night. My three hundred thousand Ferghana Horses are only bred from the best Ferghana Horses. They can't be considered pure Ferghana Horses, but they can travel six to seven hundred miles a day and three to four hundred miles at night.”
Zhu Gaochi, San Yang, and the others immediately relaxed a lot, but they still couldn't believe it.
Traveling six to seven hundred miles a day and three to four hundred miles at night, this kind of horse was also a rare good horse.
"Where did you get these warhorses? Why didn't the Imperial Court know about this beforehand? How much did you spend?"
Zhu Gaochi frowned and asked.
"Why is Father so serious? Didn't I tell you before? My uncles and I have set up a shipping association and a water transport association. These warhorses were transported directly to my residence by sea and water transport. None of the officials in Nanjing would dare to investigate my business.”
"As for the silver, to be honest, it was all exchanged with tea leaves and porcelain.”
In fact, Zhu Zhanyong did not reveal the whole truth. These warhorses were actually exchanged in the system. The sea and water transport were just a cover.
"Exchanged? Our tea leaves and porcelain are so valuable overseas?”
Zhu Gaochi was somewhat suspicious.
" Of course, Father, you don't know…"
Zhu Zhanyong began to talk non-stop about how easy it was to earn money overseas and how stupid those westerners overseas were.
Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this. After Zhu Zhanyong said so much, he understood one thing. That was, there was gold everywhere overseas, and those natives overseas were all big fools.
Zhu Gaochi, Yang Shiqi, and the others were tempted.
However, they were only tempted. Right now, their minds were all on the war in the northern border. They did not have the time to listen to Zhu Zhanyong continue to spout nonsense here.
"Alright! I know you can earn money, so stop showing off. Did you just say that you have conditions? What did he mean? As the Great Ming's Wangye, you are receiving Great Ming's salary. At the time of Great Ming's crisis, you don't think of serving the country and are even prepared to negotiate conditions with the Imperial Court?”
Zhu Gaochi looked at his son with dissatisfaction.
"Father, your son has been wronged. It's not that your son wants to raise conditions, but these 100,000 new soldiers have a share in those uncles. To serve the country, your son naturally will not hesitate. However, father, you also know that those uncles are not easy to deal with.”
Zhu Zhanyong looked at his father with grievance.
However, she was smiling in her heart. This loss of money naturally could not be done. Those princes of the Ming Dynasty were ready-made shields.
Zhu Gaochi immediately fell into deep thought.
He still believed Zhu Zhanyong's words. When his son had handed over the Great Ming Bank and the Great Ming Imperial Chamber of Commerce to the Imperial Court, the Great Ming Ninety percent Prince had almost turned the capital upside down.
If it wasn't for his father, Zhu Di, who suppressed it with a beating, this Da Ming would have long been in chaos.
If he wanted these kings to work hard, it would be unreasonable if he didn't give them benefits.
Thinking of this, Zhu Gaochi asked in a deep voice,"
"What conditions did they propose?"
