"Your general sent you here?" Liu Xiang asked the envoy sent by Tokugawa Iemitsu absent-mindedly at the same island where they met last time.

"Back to General Liu, I am ordered by the General to come to pay a visit to General Liu." The messenger said with a smile. After speaking, he pointed to a large pile of boxes behind him, and spoke again before Liu Xiang could speak. up.

"Liu Zongbing, this is a gift specially brought to you."

"Oh?" Liu Xiang moved her eyelids. "It's not a festival, what kind of gift should I give?"

"Our general said that since you were in charge of our business in Japan, we haven't had a chance to contact you. No, I just happened to come to talk to you about Nabeshima Katsushige, so I brought a gift together .

Nothing special, just some silver.Not much, just 50 taels. "

"50 taels? That's all?" Liu Xiang glanced at the person in front of her in surprise. "Since when did your country of Wa become so rich?"

"Hey, Mr. Liu, it's the country of Japan, not the country of Japan." The messenger corrected with a smile.

"Okay, okay, the country of Japan is the country of Japan, the country of Wa is so nice, it has to be called the country of Japan. Could it be that all of you like the Japanese, so it is called the country of Japan?"

Liu Xiang's two words turned the envoy's face green and white.

How can the Japanese understand it like this.

"Liu Zongbing, Japan means the land of the rising sun. Because our country is located in the east, we can see the first sunrise every morning, so it is called Japan."

"Oh."

Liu Xiang nodded noncommittally, no matter what you call those who rush to the street, the country of Wa is the country of Wa.

"Let's talk about silver. Why are you generals so generous? Is there something wrong?"

He was pretending to be ignorant, so that the messenger didn't know how to speak. After thinking for a long time, he finally choked out a sentence.

"Liu Zongbing, isn't this because you lost a soldier on Nabeshima Katsushige's territory? Our general feels very sorry for you, so we sent me to apologize to you, I hope you Please be merciful. This business has been suspended for a few days, and the loss is not small."

"Oh, that's it." Liu Xiang suddenly realized. "I would like to be merciful, but this matter has been reported layer by layer, and our Emperor, His Majesty, has already known about this matter, and he was furious, and ordered that no matter what, the results must be found out, and he also said that there must be no less soldiers of my Ming Dynasty. If you want to see people in life, you need to see corpses in death. If you don’t see a corpse, you have to know why it’s gone!

If it were you, what would you do if your general gave such an order?

And what about the pot and the island, if I bring money, I will give up the pursuit, why?Haven't I, Liu Xiang, seen money?Let alone 10 taels of silver, even if it is 50 taels, if I don't like it, I won't even look at it.WTF! "

"Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Liu is a man of integrity, and Katsushige Nabeshima is not sensible. Later, I will ask our general to punish him." The envoy secretly cursed Liu Xiang for his sanctimonious behavior, but he echoed it. "Liu Zongbing, to be honest, when my general learned about this, he was furious and immediately reprimanded Nabeshima Katsushige severely.

He also ordered him to investigate the matter thoroughly, and the general felt that it was not enough, so he sent me to express his condolences.Mr. Liu must accept the 50 taels of silver, regardless of whether the soldiers in your department can find it or not, this silver will be regarded as his pension!We don't know the soldier's family either, and it's not convenient to go to Daming. We have to ask Mr. Liu to help out because the two sides are close neighbors and have traded for many years, so that their family's life will not be lost.

Furthermore, I also ask Mr. Liu to mediate with His Majesty the Emperor so that the trade between the two sides can be resumed as soon as possible.Otherwise, if it goes on like this, every day of stopping will be a big loss to both parties, won't it? "

It has to be said that this envoy is quite capable, and he grasped the elements of the negotiation in one go.

I want to give you money, but I don't say that I will give you money directly.

You want my money because I beg you to do things for me, so that you can receive it with confidence and comfort.

Sure enough, after what he said, an unconscious smile finally appeared on Liu Xiang's face.

At this time, the messenger knew that he had guessed right.

() Let’s just say, there are no people in this world who don’t want money, either they think they have little money, or their reasons are not sufficient.

So he continued to speak in order to strike while the iron was hot:

"Liu Zongbing, our general also said that. As long as Liu Zongbing is willing to help facilitate this matter, the general will thank you again after the matter is completed. And in the future business dealings, I will give the general some...hehe ..."

At the end, the messenger showed a meaningful smile.

Liu Xiang glanced at him, and then showed an expression that I understand.

"What's your brother's name?"

A smile began to appear on Liu Xiang's face, and she seemed to be interested in the messenger in front of her.

"My name is Tarobei."

"Good name!"

Damn, what a shitty name.

"Brother Binglang, if I think about it carefully, what you said is not unreasonable, but I really can't decide on this matter. In this way, I will submit a memorial to His Majesty and explain the ins and outs of this matter carefully. I will see clearly!"

"Then thank you Mr. Liu! Mr. Liu can just call me Tarobei."

"Okay, betel nut."

"..."

"Betel nut, you take everything back. It's not appropriate until the matter is settled!"

"Eh? How can you say that. You said it was the compensation money for Liu Zongbing's subordinates, how can you take it back? Just put it here with Liu Zongbing!" Taro Bingwei said proudly with a big wave of his hand.

"Then, since you trust me betel nut so much, let's put the money here. Go, I'll give it to you!"

"If you don't send it off, don't dare to bother Mr. Liu."

"Then, I won't give it away?" Liu Xiang hypocritically stopped her feet that hadn't stepped forward.

"Mr. Liu, please stay."

Tarobei walked away with a stride, and he was in a much better mood than when he came.

The task assigned by the general was finally almost completed. As for the 50 taels of silver sent out, is it none of his business?Anyway, it's all from Naoshima's family.

Liu Xiang watched Tarobei leave, and the fake smile on his face gradually froze.

"Chief soldier, this is... His Majesty's side..."

Chen Hualong, a confidant beside him, asked puzzledly.

He was very surprised why Liu Xiang's behavior was so abnormal, which completely violated the orders of his superiors.

"These people always think that they can settle things with money. But they don't think about it. There are some things that no amount of money can solve. But then again, if I didn't understand His Majesty's plan, maybe I would really be moved. up.

If he gives it away, he will give it to His Majesty when the time comes.Now the soldiers and horses of all ministries are gathering, and the time to start the war is almost here.But Hualong, do you know why I am not tempted in the face of so much money? "

"Hualong doesn't know."

"Because in this world, no one gives more than His Majesty!"
