Outside Yamabuki Castle, a crisis was approaching in the Maori camp. At this moment, except for the soldiers of An Yiguo, they could barely remain calm. The soldiers of other countries under the Ouchi clan were all worried.

The balance of victory and defeat in this great battle has obviously tilted to the side of the Nizi family. If no miracle occurs, the Dani family, who has experienced civil strife, may be defeated and beaten by Nizi family. It would be strange if they are not worried.

At this time, Mao Riyuan was a little panicked. If the Minister of Works of the Ming Dynasty refused to credit him with some iron cannons, the consequences would be unimaginable!

As for whether the Minister of Works of the Ming Dynasty would give him iron cannons to credit him, he was really not sure. You should know that iron cannons are in short supply in Japan at this time, and other princes are asking for money everywhere with a lot of money. Why do they have to credit him for free?

With a nervous mood, he personally welcomed Hou Zhitan into the commander's tent. After a few greetings, he said a little embarrassedly: "Mr. Hou, don't you know that you may provide a batch of iron cannons in the near future?"

Hou Zhitan nodded without hesitation and said, "No problem, our head of the family has ordered the Ministry of Works to step up casting iron cannons. Not to mention the number of them, we will be able to take advantage of one or two hundred pieces."

One or two hundred doors?

If he could get two hundred more iron cannons, he would definitely be able to blow up the defenders of Shanchu City and could not raise their heads!

It's a pity that he has no money now.

He held it in for a long time before he blushed and said, "This, I'm a little tight recently. I'm afraid I can't get the money together for a while. Otherwise, you can send the iron cannon first and take the stone to the country and pay the country twice. What do you think?"

You guys want to pay on credit!

Hou Zhitan was stunned when he heard this.

What a joke?

Don’t you know how popular the iron cannon is?

If we, Lord Yang, had not kept it for you, the two hundred iron cannons that were cast in the past two months would have been sold long ago, and you would still want to make a fortune by playing with nothing!

If Hou Zhitan was a serious businessman, he would probably have gotten up angry and left with his sleeves.

Fortunately, he is not a serious businessman.

However, if you don’t give money, you still want iron cannons. Hou Zhitan can’t make the decision. He simply said directly: “God General, this is related to hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. I dare not make the decision without authorization. I have to go back and ask our head of the family.”

Alas, it turns out that it is good if people don’t refuse.

Maorimoto could only say helplessly: "I would like to ask Lord Hou to say a few more words in front of your head. As for the price of this iron cannon, it's easy to say, two thousand taels per sect. As long as I take the stone and see the country, I will definitely return it twice."

This guy is pretty good. What if you don’t take the stone to see the country?

Wouldn't this account be back?

Hou Zhitan felt that Yang Cong would be very difficult to agree to such a thing.

He ran back and told Yang Cong, and Yang Cong was also stunned. This Maori Yuanzuo really dared to speak, something like iron cannon is on credit?

Yang Cong was not worried that Mori-moto could not take the Ishinko. He believed that Mori-moto would definitely be able to take the Ishinko, because the Ishinko's guardian was not Toyotomi Hideyoshi. This guy seemed to be defeated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi. He should still be able to win the other princes.

Question, why does this guy have to pay on credit?

If this guy is a rambler, that would be funny. In order to avoid making jokes, Yang Cong still called Wang Zhi over to see if Wang Zhi knew what was going on.

Wang Zhi responded, Yang Cong called Hou Zhitan again, and the three of them secretly discussed in the study of the Governor's Office.

Hou Zhitan explained the situation he encountered in detail, and Wang Zhi suddenly said, "This Maori Yuan is really brave. He only had more than 30,000 people and went to provoke Nizi. He is afraid he is crazy about being poor!"

When Yang Cong heard this, he couldn't help but curiously said, "Oh, how do you say this?"

Wang Zhi quickly explained: "Sir, you should also know that the Maori family is not from a vassal family. Their ancestors are just shogun officials. Such a family must not have much savings. Under normal circumstances, they can have a savings of hundreds of thousands of taels, even if they can have a savings of hundreds of thousands of taels. It is simply a joke that they buy iron cannons and recruit large troops. He is probably not able to afford the Maori family. No wonder they rushed to attack Ishimiya. I guess they must be for Ishimiya's silver mine, because Ishimiya's silver mine is the largest in Japan."

The Maori family background was equivalent to a local official family in the Ming Dynasty. It would be amazing to have hundreds of thousands of taels of savings.

They ran to attack Ishimikoku. As Wang Zhi said, it was for the silver mine there. The question is, how big is the silver mine in Ishimikoku?

Upon hearing this, Yang Cong said with great interest: "Is the silver mine in Shijianguo very big? How big is it?"

Wang Zhi estimated, "It's not clear how big the silver mine in Shijian Kingdom is. The small one is only heard that most of Japan's silver comes from Shijian Kingdom."

So awesome?

What does it mean that most of Japan’s silver comes from Ishimikoku?

You know, Japan's silver production accounts for one-third of the world at this time. Conservatively estimated that it is more than 10 million taels per year. In other words, the silver production of Ishimi Kingdom is at least 6 million taels per year!

This guy is amazing. You have to know that the annual tax revenue of the Ming Dynasty is less than 6 million taels of year. In other words, the income of a Shijian Kingdom is higher than that of the entire Ming Dynasty court!

When Yang Cong heard this, a trace of brilliance appeared in his eyes. Uh, to be precise, a trace of greed.

It’s at least six million taels a year. If you don’t jealous, that’s fake.

Of course, Yang Cong was not jealous of taking Shi Jian Yin Mine for himself. He wanted to include Shi Jian Yin Mine in the Ming Dynasty's pocket. In this way, the income of the Ming Dynasty's court could be easily changed.

He thought carefully for a while before he asked solemnly: "What do you mean, did the Maori run to attack Ishimiguo because he didn't have money? They didn't have money, and the Ouchi family is rich. The Ouchi family is a famous overlord of the Western Kingdom. They won't be able to afford more than 30,000 people, right?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhi quickly explained: "Sir, the Oui clan is indeed rich, let alone 30,000 people and 50,000 people and 50,000 people and 30,000 people and 50,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people and 30,000 people. It's a pity that they can't afford the consumption of so many people, so they will run to attack Ishimiya."

This means that the Maori family is already in a dilemma and is it difficult to get on the tiger?

Yang Cong nodded slowly and said, "Well, very good, monkey, if you go to Maori Yuan, you can tell them two hundred iron cannons to be credited, it's no problem, but the silver mine of Shi Jianguo must be handed over to the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty to mine."

ah!

They tried their best to attack Shi Jianguo just for Shi Jianguo's silver mine. Now they are teaching them to hand over the silver mine to the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty to mine. Can they agree?

Hou Zhitan was stunned when he heard this.

Is this a requirement too much?
