I'm a scumbag

Chapter 305 No comparison, no harm 【5000 Subscriptions】

Such an Italian cannon made the entire Zhang family in a state of excitement.

With such an offensive and defensive weapon, the Zhang family's losses will be much smaller in the future.

As for silver, it is a bit expensive, but compared to previous losses, this price is still acceptable.

What's more, some losses can be recovered with money, and some losses cannot be recovered with money.

After getting the detailed battle report, Zhang Chi went directly to Ning Chen, and arrogantly placed an order for one hundred Italian guns and ten thousand rounds of shells to Ning Chen.

For all orders, some are settled in silver, and the other are settled in equivalents.

"Patriarch Zhang may be a bit difficult." Ning Chen expressed embarrassment.

Zhang Chi immediately said: "If it's a matter of price, the head of Ning Yuan can just say it, and my Zhang family will never bargain."

Ning Chen shook his head and said, "This has nothing to do with the price. It's mainly a matter of production."

Immediately Ning Chen introduced Wu Ang's output to Zhang Chi.

Then I said it again, now everyone has placed an order with themselves.

After listening to Ning Chen's introduction, Zhang Chi also understood that it really wasn't a matter of price.

Now in front of his Zhang family are Baijia City, Imperial Court, Marquis of Dingguo, and Prince Jing.

Further behind is his Zhang family.

With Wu Ang's current output, the Italian guns produced in a year are not enough for a family.

It can only be divided into several families. His Zhang family's five schools this time have already jumped in line for Ning Chen's sake.

One hundred doors, this is really not realistic.

"President Ning, you can wait for the matter of the artillery. As for the shells, Chief Ning, please see if you can help coordinate more." Zhang Chi retreated and said the next best thing.

"This is easy to handle, I will contact Taoist Priest Yun Xuanzi later.

Now that his Taoist sect is short of money, he is very happy to accept such a big order.

Master Zhang, how many shells do you plan to send in the first batch? "

Zhang Chi said: "Naturally, the more the better. I want as much as I have now."

Ning Chen: ...

Ning Chen realized that he had completely underestimated Zhang Chi's desire for Italian guns.

"Why don't you send [-] rounds first, after all, you have to save some and share it with others." Ning Chen took the initiative to report a number to Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi nodded: "Yes."

After a pause, Zhang Chi added: "President Ning, you can tell the Taoist priest Yun Xuanzi for me.

If the shells can be delivered within three days.

I can add an extra [-]% to the price. "

Listen, this is what rich people should say.

Everyone is equally powerful.

The time when Daozu became Taoist was even before Confucian saints.

As a result, the Taoist sect is doing so poorly now that they have been reduced to working for the Confucian sect.

But Ning Chen felt that now Yun Xuanzi would never care about losing face.

What Yun Xuanzi is more concerned about now must be whether the [-]% of the money will be directly given to him.

That is of course impossible. As the general distributor, how could it be possible if Ning Chen did not exploit one of them.

"Patriarch Zhang, don't worry, I'll contact Daoist Yunxuanzi right now and ask him to start working with all his strength, and he will definitely make these thousand shells as quickly as possible." Ning Chen promised Zhang Chi.

Zhang Chi cupped his hands to Ning Chen and said, "Everything depends on Ning Yuan."

Ning Chen nodded, and then reminded Zhang Chi: "Patriarch Zhang, Italian cannons are all foreign things after all.

After all, the area it covers is limited, plus its rate of fire and other constraints.

As long as the monster race launches a large-scale charge, there is still a chance to get close to Xincheng. "

Zhang Chi nodded and said: "Thank you, Chief Ning, for reminding me, I still know this.

I use the Italian Cannon more as a support, and the main force is still a student of my Zhang family. "

Seeing that Zhang Chi was still clear, Ning Chen didn't say anything more.

After coming down from the city wall, Ning Chen directly contacted Yun Xuanzi.

"Daozhang, there is an urgent job right now, and I need you to lead the people from the Taoist sect to drive away."

Soon came Yun Xuanzi's reply: "My Taoist sect is not a craftsman..."

Ning Chen didn't finish listening, so he interrupted Yun Xuanzi's words directly: "The person who placed the order said that if you finish it in three days, you can get an extra 5 taels. I've thought about it, and all the 5 taels will be given to you. "

Yun Xuanzi was silent for a while, and said directly: "How much."

Ning Chen smiled slightly, and said directly: "One thousand rounds of rune shells will be completed within three days and sent to Xincheng.

5 taels of silver note, let the delivery person bring it back.

The remaining profits will be settled together at the end of the month. "

"it is good."

Yun Xuanzi agreed and cut off the call.

This result was completely within Ning Chen's expectation.

Traditional Taoism is really short of money now.

Finally, the Dao Sect of Longevity was moved by Ning Chen.

But because there is no money to expand, the traditional Taoist sects are unable to occupy the blank land left by the Taoist sect of longevity.

He could only watch other people carve up the sphere of influence left by Changsheng Daozong.

So 5 taels is already very much for Yun Xuanzi.

Of course, Yun Xuanzi didn't believe that Ning Chen would give all the 5 taels to himself.

Ning Chen must have withheld his part.

So when Yun Xuanzi heard that Ning Chen said that he would give all the 5 taels to himself, he was not polite to Ning Chen at all.

After solving the shell problem, Ning Chen contacted Wu Ang again.

Let Wu Ang find a way to see if he can expand the production capacity.

After all, his own Italian cannon, now it seems, is too sought-after.

Now as long as the production capacity is increased, it is absolutely possible to sell as much as is produced.

Wu Ang said that on his side, he will find a way to solve the problem of production capacity.

But now Wu Ang also encountered a small problem.

That is, the money is not enough.

"Why is the money not enough?" Ning Chen really did not expect that Wu Ang would encounter such a problem.

After all, none of the businesses I am doing now is not profitable.

If you make money, you will definitely have silver.

After listening to Wu Ang's explanation.

Ning Chen understood what was going on.

The lack of silver is mainly due to several reasons.

One, partly because of Ning Chen.Because Ning Chen agreed to take the sacred object as payment, many people used the sacred object as payment.

Second, during the period of Emperor Shun, business was almost at a standstill.

Now that it is suddenly active, the money will naturally not be enough all of a sudden.

The third is that now Wu Ang has an order in hand, but no one has given a deposit.

The combination of several factors has caused Wu Ang to be in short supply of money.

The problem now is that Wu Ang is not actually without money.

However, due to the liquidity problem of silver, the current shortage of silver is caused.

"Let me contact your majesty, this matter has to be resolved at the court level."

This kind of liquidity crisis really cannot be solved by Ning Chen alone.

After all, although private money is also silver, it is okay to use it privately, and it is unrealistic to circulate it on a large scale.

There are still many people who are afraid of losing their heads.

After finishing contact with Wu Ang, Ning Chen took out another talisman.

Burning the talisman, a water curtain appeared in front of Ning Chen.

This is a more advanced image transmission talisman than ordinary sound transmission talismans, and of course the price is also very good.

One Image Transmission Talisman is equivalent to the price of one hundred Sound Transmission Talismans.

But for Wu Zhao, it is worth using one.

But when the picture appeared, Ning Chen saw Sun Banban first.

"This old slave has met Marquis Dingguo." Sun Banban saluted Ning Chen respectfully.

"Sun Banban, long time no see. You are more and more energetic now. You will live a long life at first glance, and you will definitely live to death."

Ning Chen and Sun Banban are too familiar, so naturally they don't have to worry too much about speaking.

And Sun Banban, the most confidant of His Majesty's side today, not to mention the power of the ruling and the public, the general chief official in the frontier would be polite when they met, and he also liked chatting with Ning Chen very much.

For no other reason, comfortable and at ease.

"Uncle Champion was joking, I don't know Uncle Champion, why are you looking for this old slave?"

"Banban, I'm not looking for you, I want to talk to His Majesty about some business." Ning Chen said to Sun Banban.

"Uncle Champion, His Majesty is reviewing the memorial. Uncle Champion may need to wait for a while." Sun Banban said to Ning Chen.

"Sun Banban, my business is much more important than those memorials. Sun Banban, please inform me that my matter is related to the country and society, so I can't wait." Ning Chen said seriously.

What Ning Chen wants to say is important.

On the other hand, Ning Chen didn't want to waste another image transfer talisman. Now that he is short of money, this thing is quite expensive.

Sun Banban is not sure whether what Ning Chen said is true or not, but Sun Banban will not make his own claims.

I still went to ask Wu Zhao for instructions.

In a short time, Wu Zhao, who was sitting behind the table, wearing a bright yellow uniform, and his figure was still bursting, appeared in the water curtain.

Judging by his figure, Wu Zhao shouldn't be too tired to be the emperor.

Not at all skinny.

"Your Majesty, Ning Chen, see Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Ning Chen said solemnly.

"It's okay, I don't need to make such nonsense with me, what do you want from me." Wu Zhao didn't even bother to act with Ning Chen.

"Your Majesty, I intend to send a sum of money, and I may need you to print some money by the way." There is a time limit for the teleportation talisman, and Ning Chen didn't ramble too much.

Wu Zhao's heart moved, and he immediately asked Ning Chen: "You want to lend me money, what do you want me to take as proof and guarantee?"

Ning Chen said: "If His Majesty guarantees, His Majesty can guarantee it himself.

As long as you are still the emperor, Your Majesty, I don't have to worry about guarantees.

As for the collateral, just use the future taxes of our Wu Dynasty as collateral for me.

It is certain that there will be a bumper harvest of grain every year in the future.

Even if Your Majesty exempts you from taxes on food, the taxes on other areas will inevitably rise.

So just guarantee me with future taxes.

Does Your Majesty think this is okay? "

Wu Zhao pondered for a while, and said, "You want to tell me that I can also use future taxes as a guarantee to print a batch of bank notes.

Then put this batch of banknotes on the market for circulation. "

Talking to smart people saves effort.

This is what Ning Chen wanted to express.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

Wu Zhao thought for a while and said, "This method has never been used before.

But it is not impossible.

After all, the predecessors have never had the opportunity to increase food production rapidly.

Based on the continuous increase in grain production, we will ensure a stable increase in taxes in the future.

Then use this future money as collateral to print today's bank notes.

In theory it works.

Your method has indeed solved the problem that has troubled me for several days.

In the recent memorials that have come up below, the problem of insufficient money is often mentioned.

In this way, the imperial court has a living water. "

Ning Chen picked up the opportunity and reminded Wu Zhao, "Your Majesty, this method is feasible.

But it cannot be abused, otherwise, there will be more money in the market, and the money will be worthless.

Especially things like bank notes, which are different from silver.

You got the silver, it is a real thing.

Bank notes are different, in case someone really exchanges bank notes for silver.

When there is no money, it will be even more troublesome. "

Wu Zhao nodded: "You are right. It is true that bank notes cannot be issued indiscriminately.

Even if you want to oversend some, you must have a certain amount of silver as a reserve. "

"That's the reason." Seeing that Wu Zhao understood, Ning Chen felt relieved.

Wu Zhao looked at Ning Chen and asked, "What are you planning to lend me money?"

Ning Chen nodded and said, "Yes. What I intend to lend to His Majesty is silver. With my batch of silver, Your Majesty can issue at least half more silver notes."

After a pause, Ning Chen added: "But after I lend you the money, Your Majesty, you still have to pay Wu Ang a deposit first.

Otherwise, Wu Ang would not be able to continue to produce Italian guns. "

"Since Your Majesty has mentioned the Italian cannon, I will say a few more words to Your Majesty."

"I am now in Xincheng, and the Italian artillery won the first battle in Xincheng."

"The Zhang family placed a large order from me, and the money also came from the Zhang family."

"Looking at it now, in fact, there is no shortage of silver in our Wu Dynasty. It's just that the silver is relatively concentrated in some places. I just use the Italian cannon to dig out these concentrated silver."

"At that time, all the silver can be temporarily lent to His Majesty."

This is also what Ning Chen thought about.

Only in this way, the whole system circulates.

The economy of the Wu Dynasty can develop rapidly.

Otherwise, deflation is the immediate thing.

"After you get the money, directly order someone to send the money to Beijing.

I will order someone to print the bank notes, and then directly place a deposit on Wu Ang. "

Wu Zhao also understood Ning Chen's plan, so he was very happy to agree.

After the two of them said this, the time for the image transmission talisman just arrived.

Watching the water curtain disappear, a smile appeared on the corner of Wu Zhao's mouth.

"Your Majesty, the champion Bo Zhen is His Majesty's blessed general.

I think His Majesty has been troubled by this matter of money for several days.

With a few words, Uncle Champion resolved the matter of money directly for His Majesty. "

Sun Banban said from the side.

Wu Zhao turned to Sun Banban and asked, "Banban, did you understand Uncle Champion's plan?"

Sun Banban shook his head and said, "This old slave really didn't understand.

But since His Majesty laughed, the old slave ventured to guess that this matter must be resolved. "

Wu Zhao was in a good mood, but he didn't blame Sun Banban for speculating about the Holy Will.

"That's right, Ning Chen's solution has indeed solved my most troublesome thing."

After finishing speaking, Wu Zhao said to Sun Banban: "Banban, go and pass Lu Gao into the palace.

I want to discuss some specific matters with Lu Gao. "

"Yes."

……

In Xincheng, after Ning Chen ended his contact with Wu Zhao.

I contacted Guo Xin from Baijiacheng again.

Although I just contacted Yun Xuanzi.

However, Yun Xuanzi was not in charge of the specific operation of Baijia City, so Ning Chen did not ask Yun Xuanzi about Baijia City.

Because even if asked, it would be difficult for Yun Xuanzi to say one, two, three.

After confirming with Guo Xin, Baijia City is safe and sound.

Ning Chen just got up and walked out of his room.

Stretching, Ning Chen looked at Fang Xiong who was guarding the door and said, "General Fang, you will soon be bored.

Yuyuan didn't turn back to Baijia City, so they should have rushed directly to Luanzhou.

When General Fang wants to show off, I will definitely not stop him. "

After Fang Xiong heard Ning Chen's words, a raging flame burned in his eyes.

But Fang Xiong still asked: "Who will protect your safety?"

"General Fang, don't worry, I won't leave Xincheng for half a step until you come back.

In Xincheng, the ancestors of the Zhang family sit in town, as long as the second rank does not come to kill me.I believe that I am in Xincheng, so there is no need to worry about safety. "

Fang Xiong nodded and said, "Okay."

Ning Chen guessed right.

Tens of thousands of people in the Yuyuan Demon Kingdom, after seeing the calligraphy that Ning Chen left for them.

He came directly to Luanzhou.

Their vanguard has actually already contacted the demon country that attacked Licheng.

The Yuyuan Demon Nation is one of the largest clans among the Ten Thousand Monster Nation.

Even the Wan Yao Kingdom that is attacking Licheng now belongs to the Tiger Clan.

But in the face of Yuyuan Yaoguo, they didn't dare to refuse anything.

What's more, they have already contacted the Hu Clan, and the Hu Clan's request is for them to fully cooperate with Yu Yuan's actions in Luanzhou.

With the above instructions, plus the powerful Yuyuan.

Let them feel that the capture of Luanzhou is definitely within reach.

Of course, the envoys of the Yuyuan demon kingdom will not just summon a demon kingdom that is attacking.

Yuyuan sent people to all the demon kingdoms that attacked Luanzhou.

Because his next action requires the cooperation of everyone.

At the same time, it launches an attack in Luanzhou. In this way, it can attack Licheng head-on.

Let the people of the Zhu family see what the etiquette of Wan Yao Kingdom is.

After all, Yu Yuan has a huge number, and it is impossible to hide his whereabouts.

Therefore, the army of Yuyuan Monster Kingdom had just approached Luanzhou, and the Zhang family had already received the news.

The Zhu family also got the news.

After getting the news, Zhu Zhengting immediately called all the elders of the family to discuss the next defensive counterattack.

After a family meeting, Zhu Zhengting found that although everyone said nothing, the expressions on everyone's faces were clearly written.

They want the Italian cannon that Ning Chen provided to the Zhang family.

They already knew the performance of the Italian Cannon in the Zhang family.

After all there is nothing new under the sun.
