Chapter 742 Watch Nuobao's move
And Japan dared to make such a plan.
The ambition behind this is even more terrifying!
Mu Yihan lowered his eyes and rubbed his wrists with blue veins. It seems that there is another tough battle to be fought.
He hugged little Nuobao tightly in his arms and stood up immediately, "Call the black armored soldiers, start immediately, search everywhere for cotton merchants, and make sure to break Japan's vicious plan first!"
...
At this time, in an inn ten miles from East Street.
The joyful sound of silk and bamboo came from a long distance, and several dancers in gauze were dancing.
Two men with long swords on their backs, squinting their eyes, sat in the best guest room, brewing tea in front of them while watching the dancers who were cheering them up.
These two people are not others.
It was the Japanese envoy who had just arrived in the capital a while ago.
They were also the minions who came here on the orders of the new king of Japan to lay out the plan.
After the dance ended and the room returned to silence, one of the short and fat envoys spoke first, also in Japanese.
"Emissary Kazama, what do you think? The Nanji Palace has not agreed to the marriage yet?"
The other shook his head, but smiled confidently, "No hurry, let's wait here. Even if they don't agree now, as long as winter comes and people are in trouble because of the lack of cotton and short clothes, they will definitely compromise."
One of the two was named Kazama and the other was named Ammonite. They were both old nobles of Japan.
At this moment, Ammonite thought of something and asked, "But I heard that National Master Nanji loves his daughter the most. If he still refuses, what should we do?"
Hearing this, Fengjian raised the corners of his mouth and chuckled twice, "Don't worry, as long as we spread the news in advance and let the people of Nanji know that as long as the princess agrees to the marriage, they will have cotton. Then, when the people put pressure on him, even if National Master Nanji is unwilling, he will have to agree. Otherwise, he will definitely lose the support of the people!"
Ammonite on the side raised his head and became proud, "As long as the princess can marry here, we can keep her in the palace. As long as we don't let her die, with how much National Master Nanji loves her, this princess will definitely become a constraint for him."
A burst of secret laughter followed in the room.
The two men looked at each other, and both of them showed great pride in their eyes.
In fact, the two of them had arrived in Nanji a month ago, but they did not report to the court in time.
The new king of Japan had come to Nanji to study in his early years, and had already secretly accumulated useful manpower.
The arrival of these two envoys was to collude with the old friends of their new king, and while the court did not react, they frantically purchased cotton in the areas outside the capital.
At present, millions of tons of cotton in the three places of Beidi, outside the capital, and Mindi have been taken into their pockets,
and the trend of soaring cotton prices is like a raging fire, and it will soon burn to every corner of Nanji.
This is the first step of the plan of the new king of Japan after ascending the throne!
Japan is just a small country. If it wants to become the most powerful, it must reach out to the surrounding countries.
And the new king of Japan, Fengjian Qing, has this idea.
For this reason, he has made a solemn oath to the nobles and ministers of Japan, and he must make Nan Ji bow down to Japan and obey it within three years.
It is for this reason that the ministers of Japan are willing to push him to the throne.
Otherwise, how could he, a son of a maid, surpass his brothers and get this honor.
Japan attaches great importance to the noble origin of the mother's family and the order of seniority, so when the second prince ascended the throne, it can be said that the whole country was shocked, and even other countries did not expect it.
In addition to having very strong strength, it must also pay a huge price to be able to do something unexpected.
Thinking of the new king, Envoy Fengjian became more serious, and knelt with his knees closer together.
"My king has made a solemn oath that if he cannot make Nan Ji surrender within three years, he will commit suicide by cutting open his stomach, so this time, we can only succeed, not fail!"
After a cup of tea, Envoy Ammonite also nodded and said, "Don't worry, at present, there are about 4 million catties of new cotton and 8 million catties of old cotton, which are under our control and are stored in the suburbs of Beijing, Laicheng, and Mindi." Each
place has two warehouses. They are already full. "These are enough. In one or two days, we can stop and wait for the next step of the plan." Envoy Ammonite continued. Feng Jian narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, "Okay, when the time comes, we'll just have to wait and see. The people of Nan Ji will be trapped in the cold winter, so let their corpses pave the way for our new king." ... After a few hours, night fell soon. In the guest room of the two envoys in the inn, the oil lamps were turned off, and a series of low snoring was heard. At this time, on the other side, Xiao Nuobao was leading a group of fifty black-armored soldiers, rushing towards the outskirts of Beijing overnight! The black-armored soldiers were wearing hard armor, and the hooves of the horses rolled up dust, shaking the earth. "Hurry, the carriage should go faster!" "It's right in front, it should be three or four miles away, keep going straight, don't take a detour!" Xiao Nuobao was sitting in the carriage, speaking in a crisp voice to the black-armored soldiers who were rushing the carriage in front of her. During the day, she had already visualized the location of two cotton warehouses in the suburbs of Beijing. The Japanese want to take their cotton? It doesn't matter, she, Xiao Nuobao, will just get it back! Soon, the sound of hurrying became louder and louder, and they were getting closer and closer to their destination. Finally, everyone came to a small town in the suburbs of Beijing, and what appeared in front of them was an abandoned workshop. Xiao Pangya immediately jumped off the carriage and looked at the workshop in front of her. It was so inconspicuous. But what she saw in her mind was exactly here. "Well, this workshop is located in a busy area. Who would have thought that they would be so bold as to hide the cotton in the city? Someone, open the door!" Two black-armored soldiers stepped forward immediately. As soon as the door was kicked open, several men with vigilant looks on their faces came out in quilts.
They were obviously just awakened, and their faces were still sleepy. "You, who are you?"
The black-armored soldiers would not waste time talking to a few minions. They pushed them down without saying a word.
Soon, inside the workshop, a secret door was pushed open, and what came into view was an endless expanse of gray and white, all of which were life-saving cotton for the winter.
Seeing this, the black-armored soldiers were extremely excited, and their eyes were brighter than the lights.
"We found the right place, it really is here!"
"So much cotton, how many kilograms does it weigh? At least one or two million!"
"These things belong to us ordinary people. They actually bought them at a high price and hoarded them here. These people are really ambitious."
Xiao Nuobao narrowed his eyes, and a warm feeling ignited in his heart.
Very good, the first batch of cotton has been found!
Want to take away her people's lives?
Then you have to ask her, the princess, whether she agrees or not!
The little fat girl raised her hand and dismissed the black-armored soldiers on both sides.
When she was the only one left in the warehouse, Xiao Nuobao immediately concentrated his mind and put all the cotton into the tribute pile.
