C1727 He was free to do whatever he wanted! (1/2)
”That's impossible!” Keeper Niu completely understood the Prime Minister's plan. He wanted to steal all the authority in Ryukyu Kingdom without letting anyone bleed him.
Shang Tai was the first, but he was definitely not the last. In the distant east, Xiang Shaolong, as the commander of the brave army, had already established his position as the king of the far east.
No matter if he was the King, the President or the Prime Minister, they all had different reputations! But the position of the first person was impossible to escape from, as Xiao Letian's trusted aide, he must follow suit and follow Shang Tai's lead, for the Far East must follow suit.
If a country puts military power, financial power, education right, judicial power, diplomatic power... Wait until all the powers were given out, then this would be considered a merger of nations.
Under the big banner of the Chinese, Ryukyu was the first to walk in. The next step was to go to the Far East. It was very possible that it was the Brunei Area that was about to be overthrown. Who knew how many more places would be merged later on …
Including the Tanggu District s of the Great Qing, if they got angry, they would immediately declare their independence from the Great Qing's rule, declare their independence from the nation, and fuse with the rest of the Chinese people, would you dare to fight them? Would he win?
Keeper Niu had guessed Xiao Letian's plan, and his entire body was trembling with excitement. ”Impossible! We cannot let Shang Tai suffer such a loss. This was the true ruler of the Ryukyu's people! I suggest that after joining the government, we invite the Shang Dynasty to join us in the Hidden Dragon Plan … ”
”Isn't it just shares? Isn't it just money? ”We are not stingy. We can raise their Shang family for a thousand years …”
If someone suggested it, then there would be someone who agreed. If a businessman was on the same level as the God of Fortune, then that person was already a Big Merchant that was far from being of low interest. These people had a clear understanding of money, they were definitely not stingy like those small merchants.
In their eyes, money was just a tool to help others in their careers, always returning back to the society after coming into contact with society. In their eyes, money was just a tool, always returning back to the society after coming into contact with society.
To amass wealth with the aim of possessing it was already a waste of money. This kind of merchant would not be promoted to the level of the God of Fortune.
Therefore, in the hearts of Keeper Niu, Boss Mi and the others, to be able to buy a country from him, the value of his business was too high. It did not matter if they gave Shang Tai a little more money, it would be like playing with him.
Liu Chouchu clapped his hands and laughed, ”Good! Great! Since you all have such a sense of awareness, why must I beat around the bush? Although the Ryukyu is small, it is still a 400 year old kingdom, and this is Emperor Ming Hongwu's kingdom. Leaving it is our memorial to the past … ”
”The royal family's assets have already been tallied. After giving up the rule, the local finances will no longer give the Ryukyu's treasury any taxes. At the same time, the Ryukyu's treasury will no longer give out any salaries and other forms of salary …” The current surplus is 31 million silver. I feel that we should not take it for ourselves if we were to be magnanimous. How about we leave it for Shang Tai to calculate his investment? ”
”Nothing to say!” The Boss Mi laughed, ”30 million for a country, this is a good deal! I suggest that the Ryukyu Kingdom's treasury can be sealed now, and that after we give our all to the government, we, the traitors, can take over and calculate the shares.
The group of people started to advise Shang Tai at the same time. This time, they truly wanted to help Shang Tai and didn't want to take advantage of this Xiao Wang.
All of the financial surpluses that the Ryukyu had accumulated over the past few hundred years amounted to 47 million silver taels, added up to a total of 47 million silver taels.
