Chapter 280 Confident Olaza

Olaza looked at a group of chattering officers, big and small.

I felt restless for a while.

All of them said it soundly, but they were actually afraid of conflicts with Daming that would affect the family business.

Most of these officers were nobles of all classes.

Behind them are big and small families.

If he forcibly fights with Daming at this time, these people will naturally obey orders, but the counterattack of the family behind him may cause him to lose the position of governor soon.

"Franco, in your opinion, should the ration be paid or not?" Olaza turned his gaze to Franco.

"In the long run, my lord, I think we'd be better off selling them.

First, you can continue to maintain a good relationship with Daming, and your business can grow further.

Second, the Netherlands initially occupied Taiwan by force, and there was a lot of animosity between the two sides. We can take advantage of it. If we operate properly, it is not impossible to completely squeeze the Netherlands out of the East.

Third, this bumper rice harvest has fully proved that the Ming people's grain varieties are indeed very good, which is exactly what we need.We should continue to buy food seeds from them and promote them in large areas of the colony!Not to mention anything else, just talking about Luzon, if all of them are planted with this new type of grain, how much more rice can be produced this year?Daming needs food, and we need it even more!

At that time, the governor who created all this with his own hands..."

Franco's words did not continue, but Olaza's eyes had already begun to glow.He gave Franco a strange look.

Damn, how does this guy look more suitable to be a governor than me! ?

"Then you make another trip and tell Nicholas Yiguan that we will follow the original agreement and sell the food to them!"

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

Franco ran out happily.There was a burst of relief in my heart.

Isn't that right? Why go to war when you are living a good life? It is dangerous and delays making money.

Franco came to Zheng Zhilong's boat again.

"Zheng Bing! I have already reported your request to our lord governor. The lord governor said that this is a complete misunderstanding. These days, we have been mobilizing food, just to help you transport it to Taiwan as soon as possible. For this, the lord governor deeply expresses Apologize, and let me express my deep apologies to you on his behalf. This is a gift from our governor!"

It is said that the famous attendant took out a gift box, and after opening it, there was an exquisite bosom clock inside.

"Huai Zhong?"

"Zheng Zongbing really has good eyesight, it is Huai Zhong!" Franco smiled, thinking that Zheng Zhilong would definitely like such a gift.

Unexpectedly, Zheng Zhilong's expression turned cold suddenly, and he kicked Franco in the stomach, kicking him to the ground.

"How dare you fucking give me a clock!?"

As he spoke, he wanted to step forward to kick again, but was stopped by Zheng Zhiwan who was at the side.

Franco was stunned, he didn't understand why Zheng Zhilong agreed to Zheng Zhilong's conditions, and even gave him a gift with a smile on his face, Zheng Zhilong wanted to beat himself.

Zheng Zhiwan comforted Zheng Zhilong, then ran to Franco and whispered something to him.

Franco finally understood what was going on.

Damn it, who knew you would still say this!What a pity!

"Zheng Bing, I'm sorry! It's all my fault! After I go back, I'll change the gift right away."

"Okay, stop the fucking nonsense. I'll give you five days to prepare all the food. Otherwise, it won't be this Corregidor Island that will be bombarded next time!"

"Yes, Mr. Zheng."

Franco exhaled secretly, didn't stay any longer, and walked away clutching his stomach.

Now that the two parties reached an agreement, Olaza no longer hesitated, and honestly shipped the grain to the mouth of Manila Bay for Zheng Zhilong to count.

"Why is there such a big difference in the number?" Zheng Zhilong asked the person in charge of transportation.

"We don't have enough ships."

"Aren't we all ships?"

"This,"

The person in charge didn't know how to answer.Dare we let your ship approach the docks?

"Are you afraid that we will plot something wrong?"

"No, no!" The person in charge waved his hands again and again.

"Go back and tell your governor that I can only pull this food in one trip. You don't have enough boats, but we have them. If you are afraid, no one will be allowed on board except the crew."

The person in charge was helpless, and returned to the Governor's Mansion to convey Zheng Zhilong's meaning.

But how dare Olaza let their ship dock, and even the crew, who knows if they are pirates.

Finally, Olaza had an idea and came up with a clever plan.

The food was transported to Corregidor Island, and then transferred from Corregidor Island to Zheng Zhilong's boat.Zheng Zhilong was so angry that Olaza took off his pants and farted, but finally agreed.

It's just that since then, the efficiency has slowed down.

Seven days later, after counting the rice, Zheng Zhilong made his last request.

ask for money.

"Why do you want money?" Olaza looked at Franco in confusion again.

"He said that we violated the contract first, which caused him to use a large army to come to ask for it. The food and salaries of the soldiers and the wear and tear of the warships will all be borne by us." Franco said depressingly.

"Is there such a bully!? How much do they want?"

"50 million taels of silver!"

"What? So much? These grains were only sold for more than 500 million taels!"

"He also said that if we don't agree, he won't pay for the food. If we agree, he will deduct it directly from the price of the grain sales. Pay us another 500 million taels."

"Shameless! Shameless!" Olaza finally understood why everyone said he was cunning.This is no longer cunning, this is naked scoundrel!

"Accept his request!"

For a long time, Olaza said angrily.

"By the way, he also asked when we will get the new season's grain seeds? They provide door-to-door delivery service, but the price is [-]% higher!"

"I want a fart!"

Franco looked at the furious Olaza, touched the spittle on his face and walked out.

Zheng Zhilong was a little surprised to learn that Olaza had agreed to all his requests.

He didn't expect this Olaza to be so tolerant, he even pushed his nose in the face, and didn't dare to fight with him.It seems that His Majesty's plan is going to fail for the time being.

But when he thought of the boatloads of food shipped back, his mood improved again.This mission was successfully completed, and 50 yuan in travel expenses was also extorted.Good!It was Olaza who no longer bought grain seeds that made him a little worried, so he found Shen Lian and told him what he thought.

Zhu Youjian, who was far away in the capital, was chatting with Fan Jingwen and others about political affairs, and he was overjoyed after reading Shen Lian's report.

If you don't buy it, you don't buy it.

It shows that Spain has mastered quite advanced genetic technology, which can solve the problem that Grandpa Yuan's hybrid rice cannot be kept.

What a gratifying event!

"Long live, if the Frankies don't buy Da Ming's seeds, doesn't that mean they won't be able to recycle their grain in the future? Why is Your Majesty still so happy?"

"Haha, Wang Banban, you don't understand. You will know in a few months." Zhu Youjian smiled and changed the subject. "Is Li Zicheng back?"

"I'm afraid it will take a few days before we return to Long Live. However, the collected food and tax money have already been transported to Beijing one after another."

"Haha! As expected of the 'Prince's Nemesis'! Fan Qing, do you think they will hate me to death?"

"I guess they wouldn't dare." Fan Jingwen echoed cautiously.

"Don't dare? I'm probably scolded to death behind my back. But I don't care, as long as I can make the country rich and the people strong, so what if I bear the eternal infamy?"

Zhu Youjian stood up slowly, and looked out of the window firmly.

Fan Jingwen and the others looked at each other, knelt down together and sang loudly:

"It's really a blessing for all the people to have such a holy lord like His Majesty in Ming Dynasty!"

"Hey! Gentlemen, get up quickly. Even though I know everything, I can't do everything myself. I also hope that you will continue to work together, and our monarchs and ministers will create a great prosperity together!"

"The ministers will definitely be smashed to pieces! I will not hesitate!"

The emperor's ability to say such words was an affirmation of his courtiers, and several people hurriedly expressed their loyalty.

"Wang Banban! Reward several cabinet ministers, a hundred pieces of lake silk, and a thousand taels of silver!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The shout was more sincere this time.

After the few people left, Zhu Youjian became more and more cheerful.

All clan and vassal princes are relatives of Lao Zhu.What does it have to do with me, Zhu Youjian?

But Franco, who was far away in Luzon, was not so happy. Zheng Zhilong just found Olaza not far away.

"My lord governor, it's time to sow seeds right away. If we don't buy Daming's seeds, what will we plant?"

"Franco! Are you stupid? Where did Ming's seeds come from?"

"Where did it come from?"

"Yes! Where did it come from?"

"Planted it?" Olaza was confused by Franco's question, and replied tentatively.

"Isn't that right? What they plant can be used as seeds, but what we buy from them can't be used as seeds?"

"What does the governor mean?"

"Yes! It's exactly what you think!" A confident smile appeared on Olaza's face.
