Chongzhen had indeed accumulated a lot of wooden grenades in the past few days!
Now, he knew the importance of firearms. Therefore, all firearms and grenades produced were strictly guarded and controlled. It was strictly forbidden to leak!
But he had never thought of selling it!
Therefore, when Ying Zheng wanted to buy it, he felt a little embarrassed.
"Old Zhu, Old Zhao wants to fight the Xiongnu. It shouldn't be difficult for you to support him ten thousand times, right?”Ji Han chimed in.
How could Chongzhen dare to say no when he saw this!
He quickly nodded and said," Sir, you must be joking. What's ten thousand? My War Bureau produces thousands of wooden hand grenades every day. If the First Emperor wants them, I'll give him thirty thousand for free!”
"Alright, hahaha!"
Seeing this, Ying Zheng burst out laughing in satisfaction.
"However, you can't not charge me for this. How about I give you 30,000 gold taels?”Ying Zheng waved his hand generously.
"No, no, no!" Ji Han waved his hand decisively to stop her." I don't have any objections to the two of you communicating with each other, but that's not how you sell things."”
"Hmm? What does Mister mean by this?"
Both Chong Zhen and Ying Zheng were surprised.
Isn't it right to sell thirty thousand grenades for thirty thousand gold taels?
Although the profit was as high as ten times, it was beneficial for everyone!
"Old Zhu, are you short of money?" Ji Han smiled and asked," Did you have a good time looting your house just now? You easily got a few million taels of silver. If you don't have money, there's still a bunch of fat sheep waiting for you to slaughter. Do you lack money?"”
"Uh, that's true!" "With your guidance, I won't be short of money for the time being." Chong Zhen smiled confidently.”
"So what do you want this gold for? Do you want to keep it for mold?" "You have to ask for food!" Ji Han reminded.”
"You want food?"
Everyone was stunned.
"Yes!" "Do you know how many people there are in Da Ming?" Ji Han asked seriously. Nearly 100 million, how much land was there? It's only 500 to 800 million mu!"
"With the agricultural production at that time, it was already extremely difficult to feed 100 million people with such a small amount of land. In addition to the land annexation and natural and man-made disasters, how many people would starve to death every year?”
"Many commoners have to eat tree bark to survive in good years. If it's a disaster year, it's really a tragic sight to see!”
"Old Zhao is much better. He only has a population of more than 20 million, and there is no war in the country. Although there is a shortage of food, in the future, when the high-yield potato seed is promoted, he will definitely not lack food!”
"So what's the use of gold? You need food. Without food, do you want your soldiers and civilians to eat grenades?”
Ji Han's series of pointers immediately made the eyes of Ying Zheng and the other two shine!
That's right, this is much better than trading with gold.
First of all, Ying Zheng was very satisfied, because Great Qin's gold mining technology was very backward, and they could only mine some surface gold mines!
Even if he collected all the gold in the country, he wouldn't be able to get much. If he used gold to exchange for grenades, it wouldn't take long for him to be as poor as his pants.
But he had a lot of food!
Granaries were full everywhere. After the war, the people were recuperating and did not lack food at all.
If potatoes were to be promoted, he would become a big landlord.
Chongzhen was also very moved by this suggestion. He knew how precious food was. At the very least, there were hundreds of thousands of disaster victims around the capital who were crying for food.
"Sir is right, you're right!”Chongzhen shouted excitedly," Although our Great Ming Dynasty is rich, the commoners are really suffering. There are disasters everywhere. Every year, countless disaster victims are displaced. I am heartbroken!”
"If the First Emperor is willing to exchange food for firearms, I will be extremely grateful.”
Chong Zhen's declaration made Ying Zheng burst out laughing!
"I don't lack food!" Ying Zheng laughed out loud and said," I have been storing a large amount of grain and fodder in the military granaries all year round. This time, the attack on the Xiongnu in the north is almost certain. We won't need much grain at all. With just a single order from me, we can mobilize millions of stones of grain.”
"Alright, alright!" Chong Zhen also said happily," Since the First Emperor has the same intention, then it's settled. A stone of grain for a wooden hand grenade. I'll also give you a thousand flintlocks and thirty thousand paper bullets."”
"That's good!" Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction." But, since you are short of food, I will give you 300,000 dan beads first. You can keep the rest of the grenades and firearms for now. You can give them to me slowly."”
"Good, Qin Shi Huang is straightforward.”
"Come, come, come, drink this cup!"
The more they chatted, the happier they became. After the cooperation was completed, they wished they could immediately put their arms around each other's shoulders and call each other brothers.
However, the two of them suddenly looked at each other and fell silent.
Because they suddenly thought of a problem. How were they going to deliver so many goods?
Everyone was not allowed to enter the other world, and a light door did not allow too many people to enter and exit.
Grenades and flintlocks were still acceptable, but tens of thousands were not a lot.
However, food was a huge problem.
A stone of grain was 120 jin, and 300,000 stone of grain was 36 million jin!
How were they going to transport so much food? Were they going to rely on people?
"Last time, the potato seeds that Mister bestowed were as large as ten thousand catties.”"They were all moved by Minister Wang alone!" Ying Zheng reminded him awkwardly.”
After that, everyone turned to look at Wang Ben.
Wang Ben, who was busy eating, quickly realized that something was wrong!
He raised his head with a dull expression and saw the encouraging looks in Ying Zheng and Chongzhen's eyes.
"F * ck!" Wang Ben imitated Ji Han and cursed as he wailed in a trembling voice,"Don't tell me you want me to move it alone? Your Majesty, this won't do. People will die!”
"Wang Qing, Zhen believes you!"
"Marquis Tongwu, you can do it!"
Ying Zheng and Chong Zhen, the two unscrupulous emperors, continued to encourage him.
Wang Ben was so scared that he begged desperately,"Sir, help!"
"Hahaha!" Ji Han laughed happily."Old Wang alone has to move tens of millions of catties of grain. The entire village has to go to his house to eat. I'll think of a way!"
