The Prime Minister Seduced Me to Give Birth
Chapter 703 Losing business
Gu Yunjiao retracted her head and waited for the Dajin embassy to leave before instructing the driver to go to Renxintang.
When Jiang Youzhi went home in the evening, he also talked about the Dajin embassy, "This time it's Wanyanzhang, the second prince of Dajin, and Wulindahai, the prime minister of Dajin."
"In addition to the matter of Youyun Sixteen Provinces this time, the emperor seems to intend to send the princess to marry her."
While embroidering her purse, Gu Yunjiao asked, "It's very close? Isn't it the only Princess Shoukang born by Concubine Chen who is waiting for her?"
Last time, he almost took Jiang Youzhi away.
Jiang Youzhi shook his head, "Princess Shoukang - the emperor may not be willing, and may choose a royal family woman to be named princess and marry."
Gu Yunjiao admired the pattern she embroidered, "It doesn't matter to us either."
Jiang Youzhi smiled helplessly, which is true.
It's just that as a man with ambition in his chest, as a subject of Da Chu, he naturally hopes that Da Chu will be strong and prosperous, not the current situation of being bullied by others.
In the following period of time, Gu Yunjiao could hear people talking about these things wherever she went.
Whether it's the workers in the workshop or the customers of Renxintang, what everyone likes to discuss the most is who the princess they want to kiss, and how much money it will take to buy the sixteen states of Youyun back.
In the past month, Da Jin and Da Chu have had two rounds of negotiations, and Da Jin refused to sell all the sixteen states of Youyun to Da Chu.
Dajin only intends to take out six states, and the remaining ten states are still in their hands, which means that as long as Dajin is willing, their cavalry can still reach the capital of Dachu in a very short time.
There are no natural dangers and barriers in the middle to guard.
After Jiang Youzhi returned home that day, he hugged Gu Yunjiao and sighed, "The day after tomorrow will be the last negotiation. Now the price offered by Dajin is that Dachu pays Dajin one million taels of silver each year."
Gu Yunjiao was taken aback by this number. The Yan family had been greedy for more than ten years, and they were madly accumulating money, but they were only greedy for one or two million silver.
Da Chu had to give Da Jin 1 million yuan every year. Obviously, Da Chu's finances could not afford it, so taxes would be added, and the people's life would be difficult.
Gu Yunjiao couldn't help but said, "One million a year? Only six states are redeemed? When will the money go?"
Jiang Youzhi shook his head: "As long as Da Chu still exists, the money has to be given every year. There is no problem in taking out the money in the past few years. After all, the Su family and the Yan family were copied, and there is still money in the treasury."
"But what about in a few years?"
"And those six states have been plundered by the Great Jin, and even the population has been forcibly relocated."
"What Da Chu bought back at such a huge price is six empty cities!"
"Moreover, with only six states, a complete line of defense cannot be formed, and it has little meaning in military defense!"
Gu Yunjiao also sighed and asked again, "Why did Dajin move the population away?"
"There was originally very fertile black land on the Dajin side, but few people cultivated it. Now that it has annexed Daliao, the land is even more vast."
"Of course they need population. Only land with population can produce and tax. Otherwise, what's the use of more land?" Jiang Youzhi said.
After thinking about it, Gu Yunjiao realized that she had also taken history and politics classes.
However, perhaps it is the modern relationship where she is the main character, and she does not have a strong sense of belonging to Da Chu.
The motherland in her heart is still the country in her previous life.
