With the emperor's tacit approval, Tian Ergeng began to act.
He was very fast and contacted Fan Yongdou directly.
The two of them discussed their cooperation in a secluded courtyard that Tian Ergeng had chosen!
"Mr. Fan, my young master is already moving. The effect is beyond imagination!”
"Mr. Tian, could it be that we can increase the trading volume this year?”
Fan Yongdou was like a blind man who couldn't see the changes in the Imperial Army and the Imperial Manor!
Tian Zi was truly sinister and cunning. As long as it was the Imperial Manor, all the roads were blocked. Outsiders could not enter at all.
He had sent out several groups of servants to inquire about the news, but there had been no news so far.
The Emperor's new army had a higher level of secrecy. The spies that were placed in there were also not heard from. They were all meat buns and dogs that never returned.
These profiteers suffered great losses, and so did the spies from the south. Everyone became blind.
This was also the reason why Xu Hongji, Duke of Wei in the south, did not dare to make a move.
They really didn't know the core secrets of the emperor. They were worried that after they were exposed, the young emperor would directly send troops south to destroy them!
At present, the people of Great Ming were still very supportive of Great Ming. Even those officials and gentry acknowledged it from the bottom of their hearts!
The success rate of their rebellion was almost zero.
The grain in the south was purchased by Wang Chengen through various means.
Fan Yongdou and the other traitorous merchants only had about five million stones. It was too little to satisfy the needs of his father, Huang Taiji.
Now that he heard Tian Ergeng say this, he was indescribably happy. He was even more surprised by Da Ming's corruption and greed.
With this group of corrupt people like Da Ming, the Jin merchants led by the Fan family would be able to earn even higher profits.
Tian Ergeng looked at Fan Yongdou." How much food and weapons do you want, Mr. Fan?"”
"Could there be more food?"
"Yes!"
"Mister Tian, I can guarantee that I will take as much food as you provide.
If it was weapons and equipment, he would also want as many as he could get. They would use gold and silver to trade, and pay in full when the goods arrived!”
Fan Yongdou had also contacted Slave Jian's last spy in the capital, and the person who had come was Fan Wancheng, the trusted advisor and favorite of Huang Taiji.
With Fan Wencheng's ability and foresight, he naturally knew the key and importance of this.
If he could empty out the weapons and equipment of the Ming Empire, it would be equivalent to crippling the Ming Empire's military equipment.
In the future, his master might not be able to go south and unify the Ming Dynasty.
He had sought refuge with Slave Jian because he was planning a good future for himself!
Fan Wencheng had already told him that even if he had to spend double the price, he had to purchase large quantities of Great Ming's grain, salt, iron, and weapons.
Especially Da Ming's weapons and equipment, even if he had to spend three times the price, he would still buy them all.
Although there were no major wars in Liaodong, small-scale wars had never stopped, and the consumption of weapons was not small.
Moreover, they had to use troops against Korea this year, so the consumption of food, salt, iron, and weapons would be even greater!
In order to reduce losses, Huang Taiji had already given his bottom line before he came. He could buy urgently needed materials from Ming at a high price.
After getting the bottom line from Fan Wencheng, Fan Yongdou was full of fighting spirit. He was thinking about how he could make Huang Liji agree to increase the scale of the deal.
However, Tian Ergeng was the first to suggest it.
Fan Yongdou didn't think about it and patted his chest."Mister Tian, we can increase the price of the grain by two taels of silver per stone.
Weapons and equipment could also be raised to 150 taels of silver per set. He would buy as much as he could!”
Tian Ergeng was ecstatic and was even more shocked by Huang Taiji's handiwork.
If not for the emperor's wisdom, Huang Taiji would have become powerful in less than ten years. Even Liaodong might have fallen into his hands.
"We can provide 30 million dan of grain, a total of 60 million taels of silver.
They could provide one million sets of weapons and equipment, all from the three battalions and the various guard stations.
If Mister can eat it, then we will take a risk. Otherwise…"
Fan Yongdou's voice was trembling from excitement. He said with a trembling voice,""Do you really have a million sets of equipment?”
Tian Ergeng said with a certain look and tone,""How can there be none? Do you know Cao Huachun?
Because the South is also undergoing military reform, the weapons and equipment in Jinling are already in our hands. Since we've sold them, just say that it's those people from the South…"
"I understand, I understand!"
Fan Yongdou was shocked by the madness of these people. They were too bold.
In order to scam the nobles and despotic gentry of the south, this label was directly placed on their heads. It could be seen that both the north and the south had reached a state of madness for the sake of benefits.
"This is more than two hundred million taels of silver. I wonder if Mister Fan can make the decision?”
"Silver is fine. As long as the materials provided by Mister Tian are true, this old man will raise this amount of silver even if I have to sell everything. I will definitely not let Young Master suffer a loss!”
Fan Yongdou was also shouting in his heart. Others might not know if he had such a huge sum of silver, but he did.
Huang Taiji had at least 80 to 100 million gold and silver.
However, what others didn't know was that Horqin was also one of the Golden Families. When Lin Danhan moved south, they also received 200 million taels of silver.
Keerqin Aoba, the number one lackey of Slave Jian, had a very solid family background.
He didn't lack gold and silver items, but equipment and various resources.
Especially now, Lin Danhan was constantly at war with Keerqin. Oba was under a lot of pressure.
If it wasn't for Slave Jian's help in defense, Lin Danhan of Chahar Tribe would have killed them long ago.
Fan Yongdou wasn't worried at all about collecting gold and silver. Not only was he not worried, but he could also get millions of taels of silver from Oba into his own pocket.
With such a big deal, Fan Yongdou felt that the Fan family could at least swallow the profits of ten million taels of silver.
Once this profit was pocketed, it would be close to a third of the Fan family's wealth.
Tian Ergeng was equally shocked!
He thought to himself,"Your Majesty's guess is correct. Fan Yongdou must know about the matter of the Horqin tribe's Oba having silver. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sure."
At the same time, the Horqin tribe was not having a good time either. They were extremely lacking in all kinds of resources!”
At the thought of this, Tian Ergeng calmed his excitement and said with a smile,""In that case, let's get rich together!”
" Mr. Fan, don't think that this deal is huge. We didn't get much," Tian Ergeng said.
After all, this money isn't owned by my master alone. It's owned by a group of people.
If we split it all, we can only be considered to be having a fat year. We can't be considered extremely rich!”
Fan Yongdou sneered in his heart," If there was no powerful force controlling it, would you dare to do this?
It was already good enough for Huang Liji to be able to buy five million silver.”
For such a huge transaction, if there were too few participants, Huang Liji would not dare to take the risk.
Did they really think that Da Ming was their family's? Only by feeding the relevant personnel could they safely transport the supplies out of the pass.
"I understand that everyone is having a hard time.
Especially when they encountered a radical emperor, everyone's life became even more difficult.
In order to complete this transaction, the number of people involved was also very large.
Without enough benefits, who would dare to take such a risk?”
"It's good that you understand!"
"However, I hope that you will not interfere in the matters of the south. This concerns our deal…" Tian Ergeng looked at Fan Yongdou.
Fan Yongdou suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said without changing his expression,""Please rest assured, Mister Tian. This old man is just a businessman. It doesn't matter who I deal with! I won't drag you down."
In Fan Yongdou's heart, Da Ming really had no hope.
Great Ming's dignitaries and powerful ministers were crazily destroying Great Ming's foundation. It was simply unreasonable for Great Ming not to perish.
