Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"can."

Contrary to Chu Mo's expectation, Chu Xin agreed without thinking.

Hearing that the other party agreed to his request so simply, Chu Mo felt that he had been fooled.

Thinking back to the fire stick he got before, Chu Mo became more and more unsure.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Chu Xin, what I want is a complete set of processes for gunpowder and artillery from modeling to casting and polishing, which also includes gunpowder proportions and ammunition production. You have to think clearly, lest you Say I bully you again from now on."

"I know, don't worry, everything I have now can be taught to you without reservation."

Chu Xin looked at Chu Mo with a smile, as if what she gave him was not some magic weapon, but a piece of shit.

This made Chu Mo even more uneasy, and secretly warned him that when it was time to hand over, he must check carefully to avoid getting into trouble with the other party.

Suddenly, he had an idea and said directly:

"Okay sister, I see that you are not a good farmer. Otherwise, I will send some craftsmen who are already skilled in sowing sweet potatoes and potatoes to exchange with you some craftsmen who are skilled in making guns. What do you think?"

This time, Chu Xin finally changed her expression. She looked at Chu Mo fiercely and snorted coldly:

"Chu Mo, did I give you some shame and make you think you can always push further?"

"You want to trade a group of farmers for my craftsmen? Do you think there is such a good thing in the world?"

Chu Mo shook his head and said with a smile: "Just because I know that there is no such good thing in the world, I feel that something is fishy."

"I guess you are also famous in the Tang Dynasty, and you are also a powerful person in the business world. How could you agree to exchange potatoes and sweet potatoes for the production methods of guns?"

"Are you out of your mind, or do you think I'm so easy to deceive?"

Chu Xin was stunned for a moment, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and then asked with a sweet smile:

"Chu Mo, do you think you will continue talking to me if I don't agree?"

Chu Mo shook his head.

Chu Xin continued: "Then if this negotiation does not continue, will you let it continue to be a stalemate, or will you let the army outside the city attack the city directly to force me?"

Chu Mo was stunned. Chu Xin was right. He had indeed come up with countless back-up tactics, waiting to force the other party to agree to his request.

But when I thought about it again, I felt something was wrong. The main reason was that the other party agreed too happily.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Since we plan to cooperate now, I think you will be willing to show sincerity, right?"

"It's okay if you don't want to give me craftsmen, but you have to be responsible for helping me train a group of craftsmen who can make guns. This is my final bottom line. If it doesn't work, then it goes without saying."

"Yes, as long as you don't exchange your farmers for my craftsmen, I can promise to help you train 300 craftsmen."

After getting the other party's definite answer, Chu Mo felt a little relieved.

As long as you master the production method, no matter what tricks the other party plays in the future, you can deal with it calmly.

"In that case, it's settled. Now, I think we should talk about the territory issue."

Hearing Chu Mo say that he wanted to carve out an area for himself, Chu Xin's eyes lit up instantly. He took out a Kanyu map, pointed to the area around Zhanjiang and said:

"I want to be here."

Chu Mo glanced at it casually, then shook his head and said:

"It doesn't work there. It's within my hinterland. I'm very busy now and don't have time to be on guard against you. In this way, I will lease the entire Panzhou to you. You only need to pay me the full amount of taxes stipulated by the court every year. What do you think about the rent?”

Chu Xin glanced at Chu Mo suspiciously, and then began to think seriously. After a long time, she nodded and said:

"Yes, but I also want to make a few requests. First of all, after you lease Panzhou to me, no one in your fiefdom is allowed to enter Panzhou without my permission. If you violate the rules, I will have You have the right to kill him on the spot, and you are not allowed to use any excuse to avenge him."

"Secondly, if our two territories are attacked and we need to ask for help from the other party, no one is allowed to sit back and watch."

"If I violate it, the rent for that year will be doubled. If you violate it, you won't get a cent of the rent for that year."

"No."

As soon as Chu Xin finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chu Mo.

"If people think you are easy to bully and come to your house every day to make trouble, then do I have to rush over to help you every time?"

Chu Xin rolled her eyes and scolded:

"I haven't even finished speaking, why are you so excited?"

"We are under attack. If we do not receive a request for help from the other party, we do not need support. If we receive a request for help from the other party and we need support, after the battle is over, we should give money according to the reinforcements sent by the other party and the number of casualties of the reinforcements. Or material compensation.”

"This compensation amount is based on five taels of silver for a soldier and ten taels of silver for a horse. The injured will be compensated 10 times, and the dead will be compensated 5 times. What do you think?"

Feeling that the other party's offer was obviously to give him money, Chu Mo immediately agreed without thinking.

Seeing Chu Mo agree, a sneer appeared on Chu Xin's lips and continued:

"Finally, and most importantly, you and I are now in a cooperative relationship, so we must have a cooperative attitude."

"First of all, I don't want to see any pig teammates appear in our future cooperation. Secondly, after you and I have delimited the area, although we are not allowed to cross the line on weekdays, we can't guarantee that one side will be greedy and dress up as a bandit to go to the other side's territory. To plunder.”

"Therefore, you and I both have to guarantee that this will never happen. If we find out, we will start a war directly."

Chu Mo couldn't help but tremble in his heart when he saw Chu Xin saying the four words "start a war" with a non-committal expression.

This little girl, she really had this idea just now, but she was forced to abort it before she even started planning it.

Sighing secretly that he had lost a way to get rich, Chu Mo also hurriedly pretended to be indignant and said:

"Yes, this is a good point. I, Chu Mo, hate the kind of people who stab each other in the back the most. Even though we don't like each other, even though you have always wanted to kill me, even though I am your brother. , and will never do such a treacherous thing."

"But in order that you and I can live together in friendship and harmony, and in order that you and I can develop and build together, I agree to this condition."

"Not only did I agree, but I also posted a notice in the fiefdom to inform all the people that we are brothers and sisters, whose blood is thicker than water. Our feelings can be learned from heaven and earth, expressed by the sun and the moon, and no one can destroy them."
