As soon as we met, Ye Chunqiu couldn't wait to ask about this, and it can be seen that Ye Chunqiu attaches great importance to this matter.

"It's a good deal." Sun Qi said this and couldn't help but dance and continued: "The price is almost determined here. His Highness Ashikaga didn't say anything. All the conditions agreed. In fact, there are difficulties in building workshops in Zhenguo Mansion. The huge workshop only supplies the new army of Zhenguo. Even if we recruit, it's only one or two thousand more. However, there are hundreds of craftsmen in it, and they can fish for three days and dry the net for two days. Almost all the money is lost. Here, the silver for the full-time research and production is as much as 100,000 yuan. Now, with these Japanese people, the rifles are sold several times the price, and each one is thirty taels of silver. Haha... His Highness Ashikaga is very pleased, and he was afraid that we would regret it, so he agreed at once."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but smile, but said, "Thirty taels? It seems to be cheap."

{No + "Not cheap." Sun Qi shook his head and said, "Not cheap at all. I think so. With a rifle, even if you make a profit, you can't make a lot of money. If they buy a gun, they always have to buy bullets. This rifle is precious, and there is rifle inside. The bullet has its own caliber. This ordinary copper ball cannot be used. Even if they want to make it themselves, it is a little bit short, and the rifle may be invalid. Besides, where do they go to find our secret gunpowder.

?So they bought and robbed them, and they had to buy our bullets. One was not expensive, just thirty cents, and one or two taels of silver. But if the new Japanese army was really formed, thousands of rifles, and if there weren’t hundreds of thousands of bullets a year, they wouldn’t be able to train them into an army. In this way, the weapons manufacturing workshops, from researchers to craftsmen, were nearly a thousand people, but they were raised by these Japanese people. I also planned to recruit some more people."

"And..." Sun Qi blinked at Ye Chunqiu and continued: "A few days ago, there was an Annan merchant who seemed to want to talk to us about this rifle. I dare not agree. To be honest, this kind of thing is taboo. Without your approval, I have to keep a little care."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help laughing, but knew that Sun Qi's caution made sense.

After thinking about it, he said, "We can't agree to this matter rashly. Annan Kingdom is so fast. I think that in our Ming Dynasty, some people specialize in spying on military information. If you want to build a new army, you must first cooperate with Zhenguo Mansion. They will buy it themselves, but it will not work. However, in the future, if all countries build new army, cooperate with Zhenguo Mansion and ask us to dispatch instructors, this is a good thing. Therefore, the Craftsmanship can raise as many craftsmen as possible. It would rather pay for money than be prepared."

Sun Qi smiled and said, "With you nodding, I will naturally do my best."

As they said that, the two had arrived at the public room on the fourth floor. Ye Chunqiu sat down and asked someone to send tea. The uncle and nephew each sat on the sofa with their legs crossed.

Ye Chunqiu rested his head on the backrest behind him and continued, "I see my uncle is in a hurry. Is there any good news?"

Seeing Ye Chunqiu ask, Sun Qi smiled in a good mood and sighed, "You can't hide anything from Chunqiu."

He raised his eyes and looked at the mature Ye Chunqiu, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed. This nephew, starting from that little scholar, has always made him look at him with admiration. He used to be just a small drug dealer, and it also depends on him. Now...

He was grateful and relieved in his heart, but he just remembered it in his heart.

Thinking of the topic just now, Sun Qi said: "Water has sent news. The dozens of land bought in Japan in Chunqiu have discovered gold and silver mines. One of them is called Shimiya. The veins of the mine are extremely large, and the silver contained in it is afraid... "

Obviously, he couldn't describe it...

Ye Chunqiu is so lucky.

If Ye Chunqiu was the old scholar, if he was still that young scholar, he would probably not dare to cover the mountains and seas even if he knew where there were mineral veins. On the one hand, he was not able to mine, and on the other hand, he was afraid of arousing doubts from others. After all, sometimes he was full of luck, which was a matter worthy of doubt.

But Ye Chunqiu doesn't care now. Even if someone is suspicious now, it is probably said that Duke Zhenguo is indeed a certain star descending to earth. Who dares to choose someone, right?

Although Ye Chunqiu's discovery of gold and silver mines was still a gratifying thing.

Speaking of this, Sun Qi seemed particularly excited and said: "People in Japan have personally inquired about it. The news over there is that, especially the Shijian Silver Mine, the silver mine, may be the best in the world. The mine veins excavated in all dynasties in the Ming Dynasty were less than 10% of it."

What is a mountain of gold and silver? This is a mountain of gold and silver? Sun Qi seemed very excited. Who doesn’t like silver?

Sun Qi couldn't help but sigh: "That's a considerable silver mountain. After the Japanese princes who sold land knew about it, they would have regretted it. If it weren't for the navy of Zhenguo Mansion, they might have turned the tables and turned against each other. Haha... Look, when can we start mining?"

Ye Chunqiu pondered for a moment before saying, "This news must be released immediately. In addition, these gold and silver mines are considered the revenue of Zhenguo Mansion."

"What?" Sun Qi couldn't help but sigh, looking a little surprised, and then said: "Actually, when buying land, I used the money from Chunqiu. Although I didn't spend much money, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was private property from Chunqiu. But once it was included in the Zhenguo Mansion, it would be equivalent to 70% of the benefits, and I would have to give it up."

Ye Chunqiu smiled and said calmly: "Have your uncle heard of Limu as a trustworthy?"

After hearing this, Sun Qi seemed to be confused.

Looking at Sun Qi's suspicious look, Ye Chunqiu had to say: Hey... Uncle has not seen any clues after all these years of business? Our Ming Dynasty has been so comfortable for too long. In everyone's eyes, except for our Ming Dynasty, everything is a place of transformation. Except for our Ming Dynasty, there is no barbarian in the world who is as poor as a beggar. Uncle, you said, if someone asked you to go into the sea, would you be willing?"

"Me?" Sun Qi shook his head without thinking too much, "No, this is not possible. A few years ago, although I only opened a small medicine hall and barely had to live in food and clothing, but although I have no old age, I have a wife and children under me, so I went into the sea... If this is not possible, I am a shameful person, let alone a sea?"
