Chapter 582
Without using weapons, he easily snatched a large amount of Great Tang's wealth.
The key is, even Fang Xuanling doesn't understand what's going on?
Shen Wansan at this time was also looking at Qin Mu with a face full of admiration.
Sighed in his heart: "The Emperor is truly a heavenly person!"
These basic financial theories were taught to him by the Emperor in the first place.
He just had a little talent and understood the knowledge taught by the Emperor earlier than others.
The person who set the strategy was still the Emperor.
He was just a faithful executor.
This was the first time he used financial means to make a move, and he directly confused the two envoys of the Great Tang.
Shen Wansan bowed respectfully.
"Your Majesty, if you agree to close the net, I will go and do it immediately."
"There are still hundreds of billions of newly minted copper coins stored in the national treasury, ready to fully strangle the supply sources of the major aristocratic families!"
Qin Mu nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand at Shen Wansan.
"Go."
Until Shen Wansan left, Li Er and Fang Xuanling still didn't understand.
Could only temporarily stop thinking about it.
Thought too hard just now, to the point that their brains started to ache.
Regardless, they still didn't quite believe that Great Qin could so easily snatch away the Great Tang's wealth?
Hmm, don't believe it!
The most important thing right now is to discuss the business of buying cattle with Great Qin.
Li Er steadied his mind and brought it up.
"Great Qin Emperor, last time the two countries of Qin and Tang had an agreement that after opening the borders, you would sell cattle to my Great Tang."
"Let's talk about the cattle business?"
Buying plow cattle, this is the top priority!
Nowadays, the land north of the river has all become Great Qin territory. So much so that the plow cattle from the northern grasslands have all been intercepted and cannot be sold to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan needs to vigorously develop agriculture and is in urgent need of plow cattle.
Can only bow their heads and come to Great Qin to buy.
Qin Mu smiled slightly and brought up a question that almost made Li Er go berserk.
"Great Qin's prices are somewhat different from the Great Tang's, one dou of rice has to be sold for one hundred wen. Old Li, how much do you think a plow cow should be worth?"
"You might as well go rob!"
Li Er almost jumped up.
Fortunately, Fang Xuanling on the side was quick-witted and pressed him down.
Fang Xuanling seems to understand a little bit now, so it was waiting here?
The price of cattle in the Great Tang, before moving the capital, was only two thousand wen.
After moving the capital to Jin Ling, plow cattle were in urgent need, and it had skyrocketed to ten thousand wen each.
Fang Xuanling thought for a while.
Great Qin has many sources of cattle, so it should be cheaper than the Great Tang. Even if the prices are high, the price of cattle shouldn't be much more expensive than the Great Tang's, right?
Holding a kind heart, Fang Xuanling asked.
"Your Majesty, this conversion is really troublesome, the foreign minister can't calculate it. How much is a cow exactly, please Your Majesty name a price?"
....... Please flowers... 0
Qin Mu held up a finger.
Seeing this finger, Fang Xuanling let out a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, not too expensive!
Li Er also calmed down.
It turns out it's only ten thousand wen, isn't that about the same as the price of cattle in Jiangnan.
Impulsive too early!
Qin Mu spoke, gently spitting out a sentence.
"Great Qin plow cattle, one hundred thousand wen each!"
Once these words were out.
Li Er jumped up again.
"Never seen such an outrageous price! Is the Emperor deliberately teasing my Great Tang?"
Fang Xuanling pressed Li Er down again.
This is the Great Qin capital, here one must try to be restrained.
Otherwise, with one word from Qin Mu, they won't even think about returning to Jin Ling.
...... 00
Fang Xuanling was also very stifled.
But he is a Great Tang envoy, representing the Great Tang, and must consider the interests of the Great Tang.
Could only ask with suppressed anger.
"Your Majesty, how did this price of one hundred thousand wen come about?"
Qin Mu was still in a calm and composed expression.
"Chancellor Fang wants to calculate the account? Then I will calculate it for you."
"Great Qin plow cattle are also in short supply, and need to be purchased from the northern grasslands, which is about seven thousand wen each."
"When the plow cattle return to Changancheng, they have to adapt to the local prices, so it rose to forty thousand wen each."
"Then exported to the Great Tang, tariffs have to be collected in the middle, as well as various taxes."
"The cost price of one hundred thousand wen each is already as low as it can be!"
This time, even Fang Xuanling couldn't help but almost vomit a mouthful of old blood.
There is such a calculation method?
A cow of seven thousand wen was vividly calculated to one hundred thousand wen, and it's still the damn cost price?
Having been the Great Tang Chancellor for so many years, why didn't he think of this silver trick?
Only now know that business is done this way?
Learned something!
The first negotiation, because the Great Tang's main and deputy envoys were all physically unwell, they couldn't continue to talk.
The negotiation had to be suspended here.
After returning to their residence, Fang Xuanling thought about it and couldn't think of any way.
Could only ask the Emperor Li Er's meaning first.
"Old Li, you say this plow cow of one hundred thousand wen, are we going to buy it?"
Asked Li Er's pain point.
But this question couldn't be avoided at all.
Li Er gritted his teeth and said cruelly.
"Buy! If we don't buy, what else can we do?"
"The Great Tang has Great Qin in front and the big sea in the back, in such a desperate place, we can only be slaughtered!"
