Li Mingxun couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and apologized quickly, bowed and said, "Don't take it to your heart. Mingxun's businessman's bad habits will not be changed for a while. You are laughing at you. Haha, let's sit down and discuss it carefully."

Chen Youlong said with a smile: "You Sun Houer, you have these thoughts all day long. I am not for yourself, but for the court. How can you bargain like this?"

Li Mingxun quickly laughed and said, "Yes, yes, yes, the adults are loyal to the country, and Mingxun is beyond the reach of the world, so he will definitely take the adults as an example."

The map was spread out again, Li Mingxun pointed to one of the rivers and said, "Sir, let's take the Shenzhen River as the boundary. Let's go south and return to the club, and it's still a 30-year lease period, how about it?"

"There is Guanfu Salt Field here..." Chen Youlong said in embarrassment.

Li Mingxun thought to himself: "You don't let me bargain, but you're so sure!"

"It's just a salt farm, and if it doesn't produce a lot of money, it won't be worth it." Li Mingxun said.

Chen Youlong asked: "What about the local people?"

Lee Mingxun smiled: "Those who are willing to move will naturally be resettled by the government. Those who are unwilling to move will be the people of Hong Kong."

"The Governor's Office has to collect three years of rent in advance!" Chen Youlong said.

Li Mingxun naturally didn't care. How many years of rent prepayment is nothing, the key is how much: "How much do you want?"

Chen Youlong did not hesitate: "One million taels!"

"What? One million taels! There is no gold mine here!" Li Mingxun almost jumped up.

Chen Youlong said: "I have trained a new army, and I lack silver."

Li Mingxun understood that Chen Youlong was the one who killed himself. He stood there, looking at the map carefully, and constantly considered it in his heart that although the club could also get silver from the gentry by prepaid rent, it was definitely not as much as one million. After all, Hong Kong cannot use such a large land at present, and the New Territories is only valuable in coastal areas, and the rest are probably worth nothing.

"Take one million taels really, no less?" Li Mingxun asked solemnly.

"A point cannot be lost." Chen Youlong replied simply.

Li Mingxun thought for a while and said, "Okay, I agree!"

"Just that's it, no longer bargaining?" Chen Youlong couldn't believe it.

Li Mingxun said: "You are short of one million taels. I will not bargain for the money, but there are several requests that you need to agree. If you agree, the matter will be settled. If you don't agree, it won't be forgotten."

Chen Youlong said: "You said!"

"The first condition is one million taels as a five-year rent! Just like the rent bank on the Hong Kong island every year, the Hong Kong Chief Executive will hand over to the Guangdong Provincial Government Office."

Chen Youlong hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, even five years!"

Seeing that he agreed, Li Mingxun personally took the paper and pen and began to draw a treaty, with the articles very clearly written.

"The second condition is that the new concession south of the Shenzhen River is not worth the price. One million taels still require renting islands such as Lantau Island, Guozhou to the community." Li Mingxun pointed to several islands around Hong Kong on the map.

Chen Youlong looked at them all, just Lantau Island was a little larger. In fact, these islands were under the actual control of the community, and there were also lighthouses and other navigation facilities on it. Chen Youlong naturally agreed.

"The third condition is that we cannot establish various conditions like renting Hong Kong. In the concession controlled by the community, the court must not interfere with whatever the community wants to do." Li Mingxun said.

Shen Youlong became alert and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Li Mingxun said: "Dig trenches, build forts, build barracks, and build barracks. In short, do whatever you want!"

"Are you going to resist the king's army and become independent?" Chen Youlong blurted out.

Li Mingxun did not respond to him, but just looked at Chen Youlong's eyes seriously and said nothing.

Chen Youlong looked at him, and saw that Li Mingxun's eyes were sincere and did not make any excuses. He understood everything. He asked, "Mingxun, do you have such no confidence in me, the Ming court? I think the Qing Dynasty could fight to this place between Guangdong and Guangxi?"

"I have always been pessimistic, you know." Li Mingxun did not explain, but responded in a simplicity.

"Did you agree or not?" Li Mingxun asked when he saw that Chen Youlong didn't say anything.

Chen Youlong didn't answer for a long time. After a long time, he asked, "When can you take out a million taels of silver?"

Li Mingxun said: "In two months, I will deliver the money to Guangzhou."

Chen Youlong stood up and swept the teacup on the table to the ground, angrily said, "You have so much money, why can't you expand a new army to help the Ming Dynasty defend its territory? Don't you often regard yourself as a descendant of the Chinese, and always say that you have the same roots as the people of the Ming Dynasty? I think you are just a wise man who seeks fame!"

The discussion was very good, but Chen Youlong would suddenly explode, but Li Mingxun was not angry. He kicked the table in front of him and shouted: "What are you scolding me for? The gentry of the Ming Dynasty is thousands of wealth, which one is not a descendant of China, and which one is not a descendant of Yan and Huang? Why don't they use money to defend their territory? They are still the people of the Ming Dynasty and the example of the people of the people, why don't they do it!

Think about it carefully. In the Ming Dynasty, from emperors and ministers to peddlers and barracks, who did more than me in killing the enemy and protecting the earth! Your Ming Dynasty has lost even the Central Plains, and I have recaptured most of the Nuergandusi. You have killed several Donglu. I, Beizi, prince, general, and even Huang Taiji, have died at my hands. Why do you ask me to do more? But you can sit in the yamen to think about your blessings!

You are greedy and stupid, unable to defend this great river and mountains, and unable to protect the thousands of people. I am wholeheartedly trying to help you, and never did anything that is unfavorable to you! If I seek fame and reputation, I will go directly to Beijing to find Fulin, and divide your Ming Dynasty together, wouldn’t it be better? What kind of bullshit land is worth one million taels of silver? If I do whatever I can, I want as much as this kind of land!"

Hearing the quarrels in the office, Wu Mu rushed in with several guards. Li Mingxun was stunned and shouted: "Get out of here. Without my orders, no one can come in!"

Seeing that Li Mingxun was so angry, Chen Dachun quickly stopped his father and said, "Father, you are confused!"

Chen Youlong was yelled for a while by Li Mingxun. He was already awake and knew that he was impulsive. He sat there without saying a word. Li Mingxun picked up the paper and pen on the ground, wrote down all the conditions he had just thought of, and placed them in front of Chen Youlong: "The conditions are like this, and you don't change a word. If you sign, you will be given one million taels of Songjiang Pingkuan silver to Guangzhou within two months. If you don't sign, when will I leave? I, Li Mingxun, give it to you with a gift!"

"Brother Li, don't be upset. My father has no other intentions. It's just that the country is in trouble now, and I just want to have money to pay..." Chen Dachun took the treaty and comforted him carefully.

Li Mingxun shook his head helplessly and said, "Old Master, Brother Chen, I'm telling the truth. Now I can't even get 200,000 taels in the public account of the club. I admit that sea trade is making money, but it is not as good as a ship of goods going out and half a ship of silver. The club has no gold and silver. From the end of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen to the present, the club has resettled more than 500,000 refugees, purchased tens of millions of stones of food, and the war has never stopped..."

"That one million land rent..." Chen Dachun hesitated.

Lee Mingxun said: "Simply, if you borrow from United Bank in the name of a society, you have already borrowed more than three million yuan, so what if you borrow another one million yuan."

Chen Youlong heard this and his eyes were wet. Chen Dachun said with emotion: "The ancients said that destroying the family to relieve difficulties. Now Brother Li borrowed loans to the imperial captives, which is really..."

Li Mingxun waved his hand and said sincerely: "I am not as great as you think. I am just doing what I think is right. I am a businessman. I will not do unprofitable things, but I will not be able to do anything to the point of being useless. I am just an ordinary person."

Before he finished speaking, Li Mingxun stood up and helped the table up. He walked to the wine rack on the side, took a pot of wine, poured a glass for himself and Shen Youlong, and drank it all in one sip, saying, "Today, Mingxun lost his shape, was rude in front of the old man, and he apologized here."

Chen Youlong looked at the glass of wine and was about to reach out to hold it. Li Mingxun held down Chen Youlong's hand: "Old man drink this cup slowly, listen to Mingxun finish his words."

Li Mingxun poured himself another cup, and after drinking it, he said, "Today's words are from the heart. I realize that there is a little falsehood. There must be something wrong with it. You just regard it as Mingxun's drunken words. This is the last suggestion. From then on, Mingxun should follow his good deeds and no longer discuss the major affairs of the country!"

After hearing this, Chen Youlong's face was solemn. Knowing that Li Mingxun must have made shocking remarks, he took a deep breath and said, "Let's say it, just let it go, just let it go to my father and son."

Li Mingxun said directly: "Now that the Eastern Captains are heading south, I think Jiangnan must not be able to defend it. The old man wants to train a new army to protect his country and his mind is very good, but I think it's just a drop in the bucket. If you want to save the Ming Dynasty, you can't do two million, and 20 million is almost the same... Haha, I won't talk about money anymore. Anyway, I don't have money. Now I can't offer silver and army, so I'll give advice."

"What are your plans?" Chen Youlong asked.

"Sir, if Jiangnan is lost, I wonder what you should do?" Li Mingxun asked.

"Of course we will go north to serve the king and protect the emperor." Chen Youlong did not hesitate.

Li Mingxun asked again: "What if the emperor is captured or sacrificed to his country?"

Chen Youlong grabbed Chen Dachun, who wanted to angrily scold Li Mingxun for being rebellious, and said, "You should support the new emperor according to the order of the elders and young people, and be close and distant!"

Li Mingxun praised it and said, "According to the blood relationship between the Ming Dynasty, the emperor of Nanjing was inherited by the grandson of Shenzong. Now in the Ming Dynasty, the one with the closest bloodline of Shenzong is the lineage of Guiwang, Wuzhou, Guangxi."

(At this time, the future Emperor Yongli was not King Gui, and his brother was still alive, and King Gui was originally a vassal of Hengyang, Hunan, and it was because of Zhang Xianzhong who fled Guangxi.)

"Mingxun knows a lot about my Ming Dynasty." Chen Youlong said lightly. He just talked to Li Mingxun, and told anyone that this was a rebellious remark.

Li Mingxun said: "Wuzhou is in the territory of Guangdong and Guangxi. Once the Nanjing person is in trouble, the Lord will be the strongest among the remaining Ming veins with the power of the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. Once he is in line, he will be able to take over the power of the Dragon Merit. At that time, the elders can do whatever they want in the territory of Guangdong and Guangxi."

"As you said, I can't cover the sky with one hand..." Chen Youlong said.

Li Mingxun sighed helplessly and said, "The old man misunderstood Mingxun's meaning. Mingxun is not asking you to be the chief minister and be the first of all officials. That is useless. Mingxun hopes that the emperor can use the emperor to command the princes!"

"Rare!" Chen Youlong shouted.

Li Mingxun spread his hands and continued, "I said that this is the last time, so I just vent my words. In fact, the best way is to establish myself as king, specialize in everything in Guangdong and Guangxi, take the world as its own responsibility, and aim to protect civilization and restore China. He tries all the ways and uses all means to raise food and money to train new troops, govern the country with iron blood and ruthlessness, and govern with severe punishments and laws. Anyone who blocks the offenders will be blocked by gods and kills gods and Buddhas......"

"Enough, why do you have such a crazy idea? Could it be that you are crazy!" Chen Dachun persuaded loudly.

Li Mingxun waved his hand, blocked him, and continued, "If the elders intend to do so, I am willing to guarantee that the association must drive the elders, join the front and back, and work together to go to the national crisis."

"You... are so crazy!" Chen Youlong stood up and shouted.

Li Mingxun said: "This is the only way. Master, I can guarantee that any province in the southeast will work together to overwhelm the Qing Dynasty's efforts!"

Chen Youlong didn't want to listen anymore. He walked to the table, took out a large seal from his arms and stamped it on the documents written by Li Mingxun, took one of them, and said to Li Mingxun: "Today you are crazy and perverse. I just think it's drunk and nonsense. If you dare to do this again in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After saying that, Chen Youlong took his son and slammed the door and left.

"If the foolish and loyal master does not have Huo Guang, how can Cao Cao turn the tide and help the building fall? If you are so pedantic, no one can save the Ming Dynasty!" Li Mingxun chased out of the room and shouted.

The Shen family and his son walked out of the municipal building, got on a carriage, and headed straight to the dock. Seeing that Chen Youlong's chest was undulating, Chen Dachun quickly patted his back and said, "Father must not go to his heart, just treat it as a rabies barking the sun, so don't be angry."

"Dachun..." Chen Youlong choked for a moment and said after a long time: "For my father, I am afraid that what Li Mingxun said is true! Since he got to know this person, he has expected too many things. He is worried about his father, and he will worry that there will be that day..."

"Then my father really believes in him?" Chen Dachun asked subconsciously.
